Beautiful.

I like the way you think. Going to a real pro for some hands on learning. As you said great way to meet someone new maybe connection for wood and of course bringing a personally made gift is a good show of appreciation. Completing the circle kind of thing. 🤙🙏

Very nice! How long does the shine lasts? and, after the 1 session of three coating one after another, how long do you wait to apply another session of coating? I have the same lathe, very happy with it. Best regards from Koper Slovenia

Your video is so very well received!!!!! I have been struggling with some beautifully spalted birch I got a hold of but it has been so punky I've been disheartened as it feel such a waste. This gives me new hope thank you so much!!! Beautiful job! I just love spalting!

Thanks for the great instruction. I will try it on an olive wood bowl tomorrow

Very nice 👍

Most of what I turn is Pacific Madrone, which is a variety of laurel. It has extremely high water content, and warps insanely. I found out that it is better to let it stay in log form and trim off the ends each time I want to make more bowls. I lost a lot of blanks when I cut into sections and then sealed the ends. Part of that may be because our summers here in western Oregon are very dry, and even with heavy tarps over them, I lost most of my first few logs. When I got my first chainsaw, the chainsaw shop asked me what I was going to do with it, and I told them about making bowls. They suggested a rip chain for my saw. That was good advice. Most of the blank cutting I do is ripping, and a cross cut chain does a worse job of ripping than the ripping chain does on cross cutting, if that makes sense....

Or just soak your oil rags in water & toss them in the trash wet.

What brand of danish oil?

NICE FINISH LOOKS LIKE A PLASTIC BOWL WHERE'S THE WOOD TECTURE

Great video and very interesting! I absolutely love dark grain wood so this ebonizing thing is very intriguing! I do wonder why not ebonize the inside of the bowl too? Personally the purpose I would ebonize is to give the impression the wood is indeed ebony and the light rim and interior shatter that illusion quickly. Beautiful work overall, I am a newbie and cant wait to begin doing 'extra' coloring/embellishments etc especially when all of the wood I really have access to is just plane ole raw pine :p

People still use bowl gouges?

Very nice. I'm lucky to have a turning friend who has a sand blaster. Great for cleaning the bark of the bowl.

Very good vid, exactly what I was after. No nonsense always wins. New sub here. Are you on instagram?

4 years late, it turned out nice. By the way, did you ever solve the problem with bleed-through? I noticed some bleeding of the black shoe polish in the inside of the bowl. Thanks

So all of the Danish oil instructions I have seen insist on the apply / let soak 10-15 min / wipe off / let harden method. You don’t wipe off the finish at all, so it looks like to me you are putting most of your attention toward controlling the curing process, so the shiny look we see BEFORE we wipe off the finish will remain. This is all new thinking but i like it.

... your cutting FLAT across the chain ????????????????! No way Some folks make chips, some make dust....

Hi.. THATS REALLY INTERESTING.. LOVE THE FINISH LOOK YOU GOT...DAVID AUSTRALIA..

very nice ... how long to harden between each set of 3 coats, please?

😅😅😅😅❤❤❤

Good video, thanks

👍💓!! Awesome inlay!

أنت رائع

Thank you for the tips. Your video and explanations was very clear.

Not lazy or cheap here. But I have found stacking rounds before ripping with chainsaw slows checking. I will alternate rounds once in while. It is like putting tree back together and one gets exercise when restacking rounds.

I like that you refer to the grind as an Irish grind.. 45 years ago I was reading Peter Child who was English and got me thinking about bowl gouge grinding.. Your presentation is very good too ..Your English is wonderful too. I have always used a cactus juice like product.. I guess it’s time to try this.. Years ago I found a vacuum pump at a yard sale and was cheap. I change the oil in in the vacuum pump from time to time and still can go to -27.5 bars.. on these old punky bowls I like urathane as a finish and holds up better over time.. Your hollow form bowl is very pretty too .. Thank you.. ☺️👍

I like you design with the wide rim.. Nice color too.. thank you..

I have made green bowls for 55 years…. When I find a crack I like to grind them a little bit and grind below the surface.. I use like a fordom or dremel with small bit.. This allows the resin I use to patch them to fill in the crack and is less likely to be surface only.. The effort to just patch surface causes many to fall out while turning or sanding.. The bowl is very pretty and using a crotch of the tree is great.. When my bowls are finished while green I use paste was to slow down drying and shrink wrap.. i weigh the bowl and put results on the base.. I fill the grain with paste wax and shrink wrap.. I keep weighing them over time and eventually like you I turn the round and if crack I treat as I said above.. great project..

Beautiful!

Were can I find this jig?

Beautiful finish. Well explained.

That was so great, well explained,

Thanks for sharing glade you explain what you were doing I think this is something I will try 😊

I greatly enjoyed this video. The Danish oil finish is fantastic.

Thank you!

How did you add the weight under your lathe? I added sand in the legs but more weight under would be better?

I do similar, though I use mica powder verses glitter.

Thank you for showing this. I have a lot of spalted hickory and oak I want to work with.

Fantastic bowl and video

Pretty cool look. Thanks for sharing.

Привет!!! Огромное спасибо !!! Буду пробовать, распиливать таким способом яблоню !!!

Well done!

HI there, new to your channel, which epoxy are you using to waterproof, I am looking to do similar with whisky tumblers

Love the look of the glitter and ca glue, I have some pieces that have cracks in them, I'll have to try this method. The bowl turned out beautifully! 👏

What do you use to clean your brush?

beautiful work of art...

i appreciate you reminding me about the combusting possibilities. Had to go out and remove oil rags from the shop trash...

Stunning work

Excellent video - thanks for sharing
