"So the way to measure for the second bowl, is to take a pair of calipers, and spread them apart, hold it directly over the center line of this piece, and get them just so wide that the edges of the caliper, the interior edge of the caliper, touches the exterior edge of the bowl. You want to be fairly precise with this, so it might take a couple of adjustments before you get right to the proper width. Okay, so now they're just touching the exterior corner of the bowl. I've got them pretty tight, you can tighten them down here, so that they won't change positions, set them aside, and then we'll start the interior bowl."
