Drills a small hole and uses a scroll saw.

Looks like something done on a RingMaster.

Scroll saw. its fine enough that a you drill a small hole and the blade
fits in.

Surprised that this is glued up. Some of these are made collapseable.

1. No hole needed, just cut out the outside ring.

2. Cut the next ring. It was the second in, is now outside, no hole needed.

3. Keep doing #2

see the center hole in the second slide? that is to clamp glued up board to the arbor. angled blade brought into the spinning work and cuts through. remove outer ring , reposition blade, and cut next ring. Other tools/methods may work but I know a RingMaster can do this. I see these guys sometimes at craft fairs.

The table is angled for sawing, otherwise the rings would not stack
up. Forgot to mention this.

I've seen cuts started with jig saws by tilting the saw forward and
letting the blade eat into the wood.

Could be done on a scroll saw (drill a small hole first & thread the
blade through it) or with some custom hole saws. Could also cut access for
band saw at one of the joints between dark & light wood, then reglue.

When you cut the outside edge of the outside ring, how do you get the
saw inside the outside ring to cut the next smaller ring without cutting
into the outside ring?

OK. We were diverted into the use of a band or jig saw. No one mentioned
a lathe, not even you until BillinGA mentioned a Ringmaster.

Scroll saw is the only practical method. I have made a few of them.
Some pictures of finished product and how it is done can be seen at:

The Ringmaster is the way to do the segmented bowls in my opinion.

I saw one in action in a local woodworker show and I was stunned at
what the guy could crank out in just a few minutes.

After you have made a few hundred bowls, I'm not sure where you go
after that....but you can really crank out bowls with that tool.

An interesting side fact was that the RingMaster "was" made in a
plant in Wilmington, NC that built Porta-Nail floor nailers.

That plant closed a few years back and I don't know where the
RingMaster went....

Think scrollsaw instead of bandsaw.
