ANGRY Olive Wood! - Wood Turning

[@cynthiacollett6233]

Phil, you are a pure pleasure to listen to. You’re forthright and self effacing… very genuine and so incredibly knowledgeable and talented. Thank you so much for sharing all you are, and do, with all of us. 👍 and as usual, an absolutely gorgeous piece…wow that’s beautiful!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Wow, thank you, Cynthia! You made me sit up all straight and everything! No one can see me but I'm beaming! 😊

[@ceciliarunnoe1463]

It does start out looking very cranky. But in the end I see a bear - with two big old wide set surprised looking eyes and a nose. I kind of like him. No matter how gnarly, impossible, cracked, and angry the chunky piece of wood is, you always find the beauty in it and create such interesting pieces. Thank you.😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much, Cecilia! 😊

[@lg7530]

Love that olive wood. Got a 40 year old olive tree in my front yard. Love the gnarly shape. Great job on that bowl, wish I could feel that smoothness!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I wish you could feel it, too! Thank you! 😊

[@JimmyLee0757]

I think one of the things I like about your videos is the calm in your voice. You have what I'd call a "Bob Ross" voice. his voice made you want to pint and yours makes you want to turn wood into art. Thanks so much for the lessons.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Wow, thank you! 😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Wow, thank you, Dan, but, I've seen your work and you seem to be quite capable of turning out beauty, which admittedly is not difficult with this Olive wood. This piece was a bugger to turn but I'm happy with the results. Thank you, again, for bringing it up here! 😊

The grumpy ones, they are the ones you remember, and often the ones that you keep. Normally this is where the wife joke would go, but she is such a sweetie pie, I just can't do it. I wish I had the patience to do the finishing half as well as you do, you really make them pretty.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Haha, good one, William! That finish is sooo important. Spend a little time and watch the reaction of people that pick the piece up. That will convince you it's worth the effort. 😊

[@FilosophicalPharmer]

Love that olive wood, it's beautifull . I get the impression, watching your videos, that you don't like using carbide tools, why is that ? Thanks for the videos, I look forward to the next ones.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

You are correct, Lee. It's just me, I know there are lots of turners that use carbide quite successfully. I feel like they don't allow me to feel the wood. I feel like they take the art out of turning, for me. I also feel, it's not as fun to watch. Besides, I started with carbide and fought long and hard to learn to use HSS tools and I'm going to celebrate that every chance I get! 😊 Thank you for watching and commenting!

Phil I’ve learned so much from your videos. I’m a beginner turner. You have taught me so much and I thank you sincerely for that. Your presentation is so genuine and thorough. It’s like listening to a good buddy showing me in my own shop. The way you study a piece of wood to bring out its beauty is so evident. When I have questions when turning I say to myself “what would Phil do?”. You have a very artistic eye and you are such a craftsman. One question I have is what do you do with all the beautiful pieces. Regards, an ardent student of yours.

[@butchgodwin4745]

Bruce, I so agree with your good buddy comment, he does make you feel like a friend standing in his shop, I’ve always enjoyed his channel. He always responds to every comment.

Well the Olive is hard, then you add end grain. I had to take a nap just after watching it. The one I just put the finish on will not be for a few weeks. I will mention it when I post it. Tomorrow will be really simple but a lot of meaning. You will know when you see it. Gary

I am so enjoying the videos especially when your turning 🫒 Olive. I live in a small village where all that can be seen is Olive trees. For winter our Woodburner uses Olive or Almond but now those lovely usual shapes of wood have a different destination. At any one time I have 3 tons of wood ready for the winter. I am a novice but with your enthusiasm I'm feeling confident. On behave of all thank you for ability to put across so clearly the beauty in our natural wood. Harvey from Jaen Spain.
