A Beautiful Failure! - Wood Turning - FIX IS COMING!!!

[@victorprimack8569]

A strong sense of humor is of infinite value.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

No doubt about it, Victor!

[@lylebrown6132]

If just 1 person likes or even loves your work it cannot be called a failure. I love it.

Dave here, at Calmwood Creations. You asked, here's the backstory: I am not certain what flavor of ornamental maple this is, was told "Japanese" by the guy who dumped the concave pieces in my driveway (totally cool! I showed him where). The tree was on abandoned property, top broken and all the heartwood rotted out. Hollow trunk with living sapwood continuing to grow but only able to grow into itself (i know, sounds strange-- read on), thus burl-like figure with very little of the darker, denser heartwood. This piece did have some remnants of heartwood burl (darker swirls), but the rest is sapwood burr (puts out a lot of suckers which fail, but does make beautiful figure). A very strangely shaped piece and I've got a couple more just like it which I'm saving for something, whatever. This piece you may call a failed bowl/dish, and yet I feel certain you will not find very many in agreement with you! Very cool dish/bowl/wall hanging! Cool, man! 😎

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Ah, yes, now I remember, Dave. Thank you for that! And, for the wood! It is beautiful, I really like it. I'm glad you do, too! Phil

[@Leefywood]

You had me in tears laughing with your comment “I hope I don’t run out of hole before I run out of wood”. Love it Phil.

[@ivanbukh7576]

Phil, you're a wizard! From such a blank to make beauty!!!!!!! Ты маг!!!!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Ivan! Phil

[@donaldadams5342]

Well Phil!!! If this piece does not show your determination to MAKE something positive happen then nothing will. When you started working on the bottom I was sure you would not get a successful 'turn' out of this 'rotted mess of Maple Burl'. Should never have allowed myself to think that when this piece was in your hands & so it proved to be. Phil, I was quite literally amazed at the finished piece & quite happily would have settled for it to be a wall hanging & it would not have lost any of its appeal. Then I see that you have 'saved it' but I can't find the subsequent video. I do hope I stumble upon it soon. Beautiful piece of 'work' mate, or should I say 'love'. I never tire of watching your videos. Keep up the fantastic work because you are an inspiration. Cheers, Don

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you for your very kind comment, Don, much appreciated!

[@danielemanuele5827]

Phil Anderson - Shady Acres Woodshop he sure was, but I bet he couldn’t turn a piece of nature into something pretty special! ;)

I wouldn't call it a failure...it is so gorgeous!

[@julianclarke7178]

I love it, it’s no failure Phil. Thanks for showing, Jules, Droitwich, England

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Jules! I fixed it, new video is out today. Phil

[@vickirothe3761]

Failures are just part of living. You did what you could to prevent what happened, but the piece had other ideas. 😉🤷‍♀️ Now on to watching the fix. Looking forward to it.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

By now you've probably seen the easy fix, Vicki. I don't know why I couldn't see it at the time. Easy, peasy! Thank you for watching! 😊

[@tuffymartinez]

Thank You Phil ( thank you Dave Calmwood Creations ) Wow Phil hand sawing!! 2 big thumbs up 4 you !!! This was a fun one Phil..."To err is human, to forgive divine" I am sure your public will forgive the balance...Wonderful FUN Phil and I look forward to your next show !!!!!...TM

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

HA! I knew you would appreciate the hand sawing, Tuffy! Took me a half hour to regain my strength! See you in the morning, my friend! Phil

[@AndysCornishCreations]

Hi Phil...failure or not that is still a very beautiful bowl...All the best.....Andy

[@Georgia-WRBNS]

You Always turn out the nicest things Phil! Not a mistake at all! Notes to go watch video on you fixing perfection! Lol! I myself, love it as is! Onto part 2!🥰

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, GP! Phil

[@guntherkratt1979]

What a beautiful piece Phil! To bad there was such a lot of punky wood hidden. But like always, you made a beauty out of it even if it's "out of balance"

[@richardlaney2047]

I think it looks great. But all your stuff does. Another great piece

[@ceciljanise2318]

I wish my wood turning failures would turn out this beautiful !

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

You can do it! 😊

[@GarryKWV]

Thanks again for a great video and a beautiful piece of wood. I used to save your videos for last, but I can't anymore. I look forward to them too much and they are always entertaining and educational. (Sometimes they teach me what not to do, lol) Thanks so much for all the time and effort you put into providing for us. I appreciate you.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much, Gary, for your very uplifting comment. I really appreciate your time! Phil

[@MrDilmaher]

Still beautiful even if it's a wall hanger great work again

[@rongollata5456]

NO failure here Phil. great job. I never used that finish before. MIght have to try it sometime. LOve the shine . Catch you next week.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you for taking your time to watch and comment, Ron, much appreciated! Follow-up video with fix will be up tomorrow morning. Phil

[@Pigfarmer51]

I kept waiting for something horrible to happen. Then we see the finished product and it's beautiful as usual. How is that a failure? Oooooohhhhh! I did laugh a little. Sorry, Mr. Anderson.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Laughter is good for the soul, Steven! LOL! Phil

[@mlince1973]

Not gonna lie, thought that thing was gonna fly off of there but you managed it. It’s fabulous!

[@kdwalters4146]

Even your “failures” are beautiful! Thanks for sharing Phil!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

HA! How nice, KD, thank you! Phil

[@oneshotme]

Turned out to be beautiful Phil!!

[@Mannyandyeric]

Way to accept the challenge! You definitely went way out on a rotten limb and pulled off what the wood called for. Now I've got to find some fallow lots and look for rotten wood! Probably gonna bite off more than I can chew! Thanks for the inspiration. Good thing I've got decent safety equipment as I've only been turning for about nine months except for one piece in 1968.

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

Howdy, Manny-- Dave here, Calmwood Creations. Free wood makes the best turnings for me. If someone cuts down a tree and leaves gnarly rounds at the curb free for the taking, they're nomally the ones not easy to split with a maul and wedge, but that is perfect for the woodturner who's a bit handy with a chainsaw. Those sections are where the best figure is. I've actually never felled a whole tree myself, but do I follow the sound of chainsaws to the source. Normally, the crew will be amenable and will let you pick and choose. What they give to you they won't have to haul off to disposal. Some will help load your heavy choices in your vehicle, even. Good luck as you progress in your craft; that and perseverance will reward you!

[@WoodenItBeNice]

Hi Phil, If my successes turned out as lovely as this "Failure" I would sleep a very happy man every night. Looking forward to the "Fix" tomorrow. Cheers, Huw. PS Thank you for continuing to support my channel I really appreciate it. Huw

Thank you, Huw! You seem to be doing just fine, yourself! Phil

This is not a failure. It is just different and dang nice to look at.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Richard! Phil

[@TheMessyStudio]

Tippy, yes, but it is no failure, my friend. A beautiful piece whether it sits flat or hangs on a wall. Billy

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Billy! It's fixed! Phil

[@kobiekaasjager4822]

Absolutely awesome and stunningly beautiful magnificent and spectacular.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you very much, Kobie! 😊

[@geofo60]

I was determined not to miss this one Phil. What a magnificent piece of Maple Burl !! Look forward to seeing your “fix” tomorrow on U.K. Independence Day 🇬🇧. All the very best my friend. Geof

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I'm glad you watched, Geof! Hmmm... I need to touch up on my history. Independence Day from whom? Phil

[@geofo60]

Phil Anderson - Shady Acres Woodshop The European Union, following 3 1/2 years of political wrangling. Over 40 years of being under their control through trade, their judiciary & political alignment we will be severing the knot that’s caused so much division over Brexit. Time for us to do free trade deals with the likes of the USA 🇺🇸, Canada, Australia, New Zealand & many more countries who want to do business with us. During our membership of the “EU Club”/ Federation we have paid in (nett) over 200 Billion £ Sterling. Our manufacturing has been destroyed, our fishing waters raped by factory ships, decimating our fishermen’s livelihoods ......... I could go on for hours. From 11,00 o’clock on 31st January 2020 we take back our Sovereignty, get the investments that are queuing up to bring back manufacturing & about time . I’m hopeful that we have our own Trump in Boris Johnson & look forward to a very bright future, especially with the stopping of freedom of movement into the U.K. 🇬🇧 of people who have no skills to offer.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

@@geofo60 Ah, yes, ok, I've been following this but somehow I thought it was scheduled for the Spring time. Sheesh, tomorrow! Good for you! It's about time you had a chance to advance your fortunes! I do think Boris will do well if given the opportunity. It's good to know he has your support and I assume that of at least half the population. Jolly good!

[@paulhowes5488]

Beautiful job and finish Phil well done mate

[@rodgerwentland2530]

Phil just beautiful, I just love watching and listening you are a great wood worker,never stop experimenting beauty comes out of it.

[@brendarobbins8832]

Your videos are my favorites. You explain everything so well, from the “technical” stuff to your vision of what the piece wants to be. I’m learning so much! Thanks for posting.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you very much for your great comment, Brenda! You've brightened my day! Phil

[@robertcisek3990]

No "real" failure here...you ended up showing what this piece of wood had to offer. Resolve the foot issue and you have a very attractive live edge platter. I've seen most of your videos and know that you know you can't always decide ahead of time what a piece of wood will become after turning. Much of the time you have to open up the wood on the lathe in order to see what it offers. The turner's job is to expose what the wood has to offer...and to that end, mission accomplished. Another great job on a very tricky piece of wood.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Robert, I'm glad you like it! Phil

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

Dave, here, at Calmwood Creations. My favorite quote about woodturning came from a woodworking advice forum tagline and is now my "Shop Motto": "I'm a woodturner-- I don't create beauty, I reveal it!"

[@wandapiedra8973]

Ones again another gorgeous piece. Due to your instructive videos, I have decided to start woodturning and today I made my first piece but not as good as yours. Thank you for your inspiring videos. Hopefully I can reach your level of excellence. ❤️👍🏼

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Wanda! OH, I think it's wonderful you have started woodturning! Congrats on a great new hobby! Phil

[@jamesdearinger3674]

Failure? Hardly. A beautiful piece of wood turned and finished. We can only do what we can do. The only way to have failed was to not complete what you started. Well done, Phil.

[@egparis18]

Just tell folks to fill it with nuts and sit in a rocking chair. It's beautiful. I'm off to see how you fixed it. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

LOL!

[@toddmatthews2025]

Thanks Phil for sharing your pieces. I love your work the way you keep natural edges..I'm starting on the lathe and hope i can get to your standard

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Todd! Get to YOUR standard and you will be happy! Phil

[@stefanaretz8136]

What a beauty of a bowl, Phil , your videos are always an inspiration ! Such wood is rare to find. I'll try to, maybe a treefelling company, I'm working sometimes with can save some burls for me. Look foreward to that.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@watcherdude1330]

Hello Phill. Lar from Canada 🇨🇦. That turned out great . You started with a chunk of rot, and made a nice platter . Up here we call that MANITOBA MAPLE. I will send you a pic of a piece I did.

Phil, very nice turning.

[@alansimpson596]

Beautiful bowl/platter. I agree with Robert Keyes in his comment below that you could make a stand to keep it in balance. I note that you always wear your face shield. | do too but just yesterday I took mine off momentarily as I wanted to see more clearly how a new tool was cutting. I got a catch and a kickback which broke my specs :-).

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

OH, bad news, Alan! I'm glad it was only your glasses and not something irreplaceable. Stay safe! Phil

[@chuckwatts841]

Instead a thought??? If you still have it, you might turn a 'wee' base to set it on? The grain is lovely. Thank you, Chuck

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Well, thanks, Chuck. The title does say "Fix is Coming" and it did with the next video! 😀

[@lewisgreenway5065]

Lovely Maple Burl.

[@alanbarbour5185]

What a wonderfully gorgeous failure. You did it again dear friend, from firewood to fabulous and rot to a rating of 10/10. Thank you so much Phil.

[@anneandgregrobison8120]

Nothing wrong with a wall hanging. Burls are always fascinating. I've seen some interesting burls in pines in Alaska and hope to obtain one sometime. Nice turning control. The wide scraper is a bomber tool...thanks.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I hope you watch the FIX for this piece, it's a bowl again! 😊

It might be a bit tipsy but I think it is a beauty! You could just put all the M&M's on one side? I really like the area the shorted side how it blends into the burled area. Phil when I saw Failure I was thinking the worst...but I think it is pretty darn nice. I am still trying to edit my double failure. I think the piece will be nice but wow...trouble all the way to the end. You got rid of all the not so good wood and left the pretty stuff. Take care buddy! Gary

You may stop at 'beautiful' Phil. It's totally unique artistry. So once again you've done it... gorgeous. I do look forward to your videos especially because you don't change the natural lines, shape or anything someone would consider a flaw in the piece you're turning... Thanks for the beauty you share!!

Before you even started talking I thought to myself, here’s another Phil piece of wood. Then as you showed it I wondered how you were going to work around the rot. But you did! I’m sure one of your viewers or fellow woodworkers will have a solution to the balance issue. I think it’s a lovely creation 💕

Well done Phil. just a lovelly piece. Years ago I was into clock making and I think this would lend itself to that, just a thought. Cheers John

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yes, it probably could make a great clock face, John. But, I fixed it and now it's a bowl again. Video in the morning. Phil

[@andrewwatson9805]

Wonderful! to balance it you could drill a tiny hole on the lighter side, maybe more, and then fill them with lead shot, then topping off the holes with wood fill. I think it is gorgeous, well worth keeping.

[@michaellombard4544]

Phil, Beautiful piece. You might try PC-Petrifier Wood Hardener (from Amazon, about 1/3 the cost of MinWax wood hardener, and as best I can tell, just as good). It is milky, but dries clear. I simply pour it onto punky wood, or soak the punky part with it. It adds extra time to the project, but I have saved many inches of wood with it.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks for the tip, Michael! Phil

[@jimbembinster]

[@willmakeseverything3829]

Failure or not, and I don't consider it one, that is a beautiful finished piece Phil, I've been racking my brain for ways to shift the weight balance but they're all too invasive to the piece, build it a little wedge to sit on under the heavy side? Or you could turn a base of say 5 inches, with a tenon that exactly fits your recess, if you use a contrasting wood, it'll look like you meant it from the beginning 😁 All the best, Will
