Firewood to Heirloom Woodturning Video
Firewood can be wood turned into family heirlooms. Woodturning an otherwise piece of firewood is very satisfying.

[@tedblack2288]

The thing I like best about watching Kent's videos is his patter. He doesn't assume we understand what he is doing, nor does he insult our intelligence by talking down to us. I rate him the best craftsman on KZbin!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Ted! Happy Turning!

[@geoffcampbell7846]

This is encouraging because there's oftentimes when you're looking for wood to turn you find odd scraps that are not uniform and not ideal for a simple project, but look again and nevermind the outside appearance, if there's enough depth and width once its cleaned up, its possible to dig something out that might turn out to be a really nice piece just waiting to be revealed.

[@markdicer]

Always learning something new. Its the best part of being new at wood turning. Thanks Kent.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Mark, you are correct. And I think that is also why it is so satisfying. There are so many skills and techniques to learn, improve, and perfect. We have to constantly think and be engaged. This is not a casual hobby you can do while you watch TV and eat popcorn. It's a full mental experience and I believe that is also the reason it is deeply satisfying for so many people. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

[@tielkgate]

Kent, this piece continues to show off your special skill set of viewing the "Not So Obvious" beauty in all the different things around us-very much like a photographer sees through the lens of his camera. Oh, wait! You ARE an award-winning photographer-I almost forgot. Kent, you have created yet another cool piece of Mother Nature's natural beauty from the beautiful trees around us - even from a burn pile. I think you should gift this beautiful piece BACK to your brother from which it came. 😉 Lowell

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Lowell, Thank you for writing and sharing! LOL, I probably should re-gift his log back to him. He texted me to say, "hey you stole my firewood." LOL

[@tielkgate]

@@TurnAWoodBowl Thats Funny!🤣

[@ofrank6551]

Kent, was wondering if you could do a shop tour? I love watching your videos. They are very informative!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

I'll see what I can do Frank. Perhaps when the channel gets 100k subscribers. Happy Turning!

[@BenNawrath]

I cut down a cherry tree in my parents' yard in VT back in 2010, before I got into turning. A few years later when visiting I grabbed some off the top of the pile we had made. I've turned a pepper mill, baby rattle, many bottle stoppers. a dibbler, a newspaper-planting-pot maker, and even a new center press thingie for my mom's antique apple sauce press. Lots of it a mix of sap and heart wood. I LOVE found-wood projects. Even better when I know where the stump is (or was).

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Oh that's fantastic, Ben. You were seasoning it for woodturning before you even knew it. Well done. ;) Happy Turning!

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

I love seeing new techniques especially for smaller pieces of wood. Around here, Central California, most fruit wood looks very similar in grain to the log you were using so I am sure I have some pieces that would work. I have some newly cut Holly as well. My first bowl warped just as you said but it worked for me as I turned it to allow for the warp. Holly turns so smooth it almost needs no sanding. Can't wait. Thanks.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Sounds great! Thank you for writing and sharing, Jeff! Happy Turning!

[@qapla]

Good job, Kent. Your bowl is unique, and the contrast looks good. I would have gone in a different direction and probably ended up with a platter. Goes to show how we each see something in a piece of wood and one idea is not the only idea that will work. Keep up the videos and finding your treasures in the wood.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thanks 👍

[@JC.Jensen]

Really cool! Was sad to hear black cherry ended up in a firewood pile though

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

I know, crazy or what. ;) Happy Turning!

[@loucinci3922]

WOW! That holly really shrunk. Barely had enough material to turn. Nice job!

[@randaltucker2981]

American Beauty, you know what’s up. Great to see someone who knows what they are doing enjoy their craft. Kudos.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you kindly, Randal! Happy Turning!

[@markchoitz443]

always enjoy a firewood challenge, great job Kent.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Mark

[@AlexDMast]

Hey Kent im a new subscriber and im loving the videos. I would love to see a video on turning a chips and dip bowl where theres a tray with a bowl attached to it. Thanks!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Great idea, Alex. I'll see what I can do. Happy Turning!

[@LewisKauffman]

Thanks, Kent!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

You are very welcome, Lewis! Happy Turning!

[@jeanlong4285]

Great job Kent, you have a good eye to see the beauty in that piece firewood. Love this lidded bowl.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thanks, Jean! 👍

[@LawrenceCapital]

Love it from firewood to a bowl display !

[@kevindcreates]

are you filming at 30 or 60 frames per second? your videography is gorgeous

[@jackthompson5092]

This is a very beautiful bowl Kent.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Jack! Happy Turning!

[@janeoverby2151]

It's a lovely piece, but there is no way I would have used that gorgeous piece of Camphor as a jam chuck! I love turning camphor. The grain patterns are spectacular!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

I totally agree Jane, but I had the perfect scrap piece! ;) Happy Turning!

[@DavidBird-uu8km]

Very nice. I love the voice over, great information. Thanks

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, David! Happy Turning!

[@bobbynash282]

Somewhat the wood. But actually your magical hands. You have great insight while looking at the wood. So far what little ideas l have. Never seem to turn out that way lol. Thanks for the microwave drying video. Worked great, had a tree just dripping water in the birds mouth when l cut it. But it dried really well, with only a few tiny cracks on the bottom.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Sounds great Bobby. Thank you for writing and sharing! Happy Turning!

[@KevinBryant-u3c]

Love the color combination and always great to see what you come out with

[@jmwz9657]

I was really hoping you would turn the jam chunk into a bowl after you were done using it haha

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Ha, I like that idea Jim. Happy Turning!

[@loucinci3922]

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Glad you enjoyed it Lou. Happy Turning!

[@maggieirving]

Fabulous! I'm inspired x

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thanks Maggie! Enjoy and Happy Turning!

[@lewisgreenway5065]

After watching so many of your videos this came as quite a surprise, very artistic kept me guessing through the whole way, nice twist on the normal. 😁

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Glad you enjoyed it, Lewis! Happy Turning!

[@ianjenkins6570]

is there a limit to the amount of cracking a piece of wood has in order to turn it?

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Hm? Good question, Ian. You can turn pretty nasty things, but if there is a risk of chunks coming off it's best to not use it. This was structurally sound. Happy Turning!

[@fern6114]

Very good work and nice idea….but a lot of publicity from youtube, cheers from Luxembourg 🇱🇺 Europe

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Fern!

[@TylerDollarhide]

My mind was blown using a spur center for side grain. Why hasn't anyone told me I could do this?!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Shrug! ;) Go for it. Happy Turning!

[@daleallgier6077]

I was wondering why you didn't use Glue Blocks on The bottom of your bowels? That gadget that holds a chuck and you put on the tail stock? That would be perfect to mount a glue block it gives you the option of making your project just a little bit deeper. I have that gadget that has barrings so you have the option to double chuck large bowls or platters 😊

[@evelyneeeckeloo3629]

it makes me think off ak apple. i would not have angled it that much, about half way. because this angle makes me worry the lid would fall off or the contents would spill. you can also not put that much candy in it that way, lol.

[@markduggan3451]

I'm reasonably new to turning (less than a year). I use firewood to practice, nowhere near as nice as yours.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Great plan Mark. My firewood isn't that great. That's why I grab it from my brother when he's not looking. ;)
