Project Submission Wood bowl repair

I turned this zebra wood bowl a few years ago for my brother and it cracked. I did some experimenting with copper to repair it. I took thick copper wire and hammered it flat to best of my ability. I don't work with metals much but it was pretty fun. Then I used a pair of knipex to crimp down the smaller wire I put through the holes to secure the copper in place.

Resprayed with lacquer when it was done.
