From Firewood to Bowl

[@gabrieleg6384]

What an awesome job! Thanks for sharing your craftsmanship!

[@robertsterett4260]

Your quality of work and detail narration make watching your Videos enjoyable and very informative. A true Craftsman.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Thank you I appreciate that!

[@dettonator6]

100% 🙌

[@johnfitbyfaithnet]

Indeed

[@hungryhoss1379]

This young man…. when you watch him work wood… it’s like watching Pablo Picasso… doing his Etchings….. you my friend are so talented… they don’t make them… like you anymore… You are Amazing my friend… Such an inspiration for wood workers everywhere.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Thanks so much for the kind words

[@johnfitbyfaithnet]

Agreed!

[@MurphyWoodwork]

That maple bowl is a work of art, absolutely amazing.

[@gr8dvd]

Definitely the more unusual & aesthetically pleasing shape. Version 2 suggest, burn rather than gray paint… forget the Japanese (?) technique for this and imagine much skill to blacken selectively tho thinking combo of post-burn carving and applying water could do it.

[@jasonthomas1760]

I'm so graceful with hand tools I could see an ER visit to reattach a finger or 3 with that bowl axe lol

[@tattooedredheadx]

This was so peaceful to watch.

[@treygibson6372]

I love the look of the inside of the first bowl. The contrast of the color stain you used with scraping it makes it look like lightning streaks on the inside. My son would love this!

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Chris absolutely beautiful bowl. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Jared I always appreciate you stopping by and watching and your encouraging comments! Thank you friend!

[@SchysCraftCo.]

@@ThirdCoastCraftsman your very welcome my friend. God bless.

[@ponyxpress3]

Just finished the chicken coop, and got our 10 pullets in. Your response to my last question on the door gave me the confidence to get ‘er done! It was awesome watching this video. True craftsman.

[@TheRich4187]

Nice work on the bowls. Good to see you explore a different area of wood working. Hope the family is well...Utz included. Miss him in the videos but I bet he's enjoying time with the kids. Take care

[@c.a.g.1977]

VEry cool, love the organic shapes. So nice how the sapwood of the walnut flows around the edge of the bowl.

[@Just_Smile-n2w]

These bowls turned out spectacularly. I would be so proud to have this in my home.

[@hassanal-mosawi4235]

Thanks for sharing those tips and the make!

[@aaronwithanA]

Absolutely stunning! I’m sure Minwax was “wowed” like the rest of us! Keep up the great work!

[@flyness39]

Wow!! For one of your first carving jobs, that was top notch! I liked how you went with the flow of the wood and coloring as you progressed, really making it your own.

[@nordyfamily]

Well done! I am excited that you are posting more again

[@yannkitson116]

Nice carving...

[@sapelesteve]

Bravo! Excellent wood carving & beautiful bowls Chris! I did miss seeing UTZ though🐶 Hope that you and your family are doing well. 👍👍😉😉

[@Environmenthrall]

Yes, UTZ!!! Coolest buddy

[@TWC6724]

That looks amazing Chris. Great job. I’m always a huge fan of incorporating texture.

[@michaelthompson1363]

Like all your projects, this was fantastic!

[@michaelkay9442]

Gorgeous pieces, fabulous work sir! Well done!👍👍

[@woodforge]

Love seeing the process behind the result. Beautiful work.

[@Swamp-Fox]

Your bowl turned out super nice! Great choice of wood!

[@user-gb7se4rx8l]

Super to watch , excellent stuff 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@MANJITSINGH-ko2oi]

WELDONE those were beautiful.

[@MCsCreations]

Amazing work, Chris! Really beautiful pieces!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@jlinkhart]

Gorgeous. Nice job.

[@TedAlexander24]

The card scraping really made a nice look inside the maple. The lighting in your shop is so good that it was hard to see the grain until the beauty shots. That was supposed to be a compliment. Hope you took it that way.

[@terristroh3965]

You never disappoint, Chris!

[@clydedecker765]

Mary May you're not BUT VERY good job. Love the design and color combinations. And different kind of dust collectors...

[@therelaxingwoodshop7495]

Poured a pint of Guinness. Put my feet up and watched the show. Then told my son you just released a new video. 2 views in one👍👍

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Haha my man! Always appreciate the love brother!

[@angelramos-2005]

Beautiful bowls.Thank you.

[@noahmcgowan3547]

Love your work. My name is Noah. I'm a carver. I make bowls like you. Ya gave me a lot to think about. Keep carving!

[@jefffoggymountainworkshop5021]

Great carving of both bowls!! I really like the walnut one best. I would have scraped a little more inside, but they came out awesome.

[@robthompson5480]

Very cool. Good work.

[@TheGardenFamily]

Very nice work both on the bowl and the video. Working on a few maple bowls myself currently! Cheers from Ohio

[@SH-fi8sn]

Wonderfully done!

[@vicegrips188]

Nice job laying out everything. That’s the hardest part. I’ll use paint sometimes on the outside but I all most always use a tongue oil on them and have had great success ✌

[@pamelaconkin1361]

Beautiful work

[@MartinMMeiss-mj6li]

Lovely bowls, and a great video. Here are some questions: 1) Are the Minwax finishes you used on the inside of the bowls food-safe, or will these bowls not be used with food? 2) Experimenting is fine, but why not do some of experiments, like seeing how scraping the stain off the gouge-dimpled surface looks, on a piece of scrap? I look forward to your future videos.

[@jimharvill6988]

amazbowls!!

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

Hola! 🖐Happy to see another one of your videos. Definitely did not disappoint, well done with both bowls.👏 I'm also missing seeing your good buddy Utz. Hope all is well with you and the whole family, looking forward to the next one. Take care and have a good one, Adios!👊

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Thanks so much. It’s hard to get Utz down in the shop anymore. He’d rather follow our kids around to steal their snacks all fay

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

@@ThirdCoastCraftsman 😂I guess I would do the same!

[@tomas5376]

Beautiful! Gave me some good ideas for my next project.👏👏👏👏🙏🏼

[@lesliecrowther7004]

Thoroughly enjoyed watching your approach and system of technic for styling and shaping. You say you use your hatchet for removing waste, I have a carving axe, I believe both different ? I have some of the gauges you have but maybe not the same sizes that you were using but I think I could manage. As for the colour ? Your bowl your choice, I think I might have just remained O' natural . Your decision to spoke shave access grey ?? Big pat on the back buddy great move, having commented on the colour ( would not be my choice but ) at the end going with the scraper, smashed it mate !!! A beautiful cracked ice effect, 👏 brilliant. Wonder how that would have looked in a different colour ?? Great job well executed you should be proud of your quality and workmanship skills. Cheers 🍻 buddy and all the best. Les. From the other side of the BIG POND.

[@will.isaacs20701]

Miss seeing Ouzt in your videos man. I just got a GWP a few months ago, found out about them from watching your videos. Bowl turned out great.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

I’m glad to hear you got a GWP. He doesn’t want to hang out with me anymore now that we have kids that always drop snacks on the ground haha

[@fredparsons5134]

Utz is now the quicker picker upper. 😀

[@fredparsons5134]

Excellent looking bowls. I like the water base stains from Minwax but didn’t realize they now had the solid color stains. You mentioned a bespoke plane I think, it leaves the groove gouges in the wood? I’ve seen some tables around here with that effect, I thought they used a thickness planner with special blades to do that. Anyhow it’s a cool design.

[@buffalojones341]

Beautiful work!

[@ITubetc]

Great work, double thumbs up if I could find that button!

[@blakelambert5643]

My man. All that manual labor has you looking strong. Nearly ready to build that timber framed house by hand.

[@hilarypowers830]

stunning

[@RozsavolgyiBalazs]

Great video, nice work, thanks! There could be a video about how you clean up the workshop after one such job. 😊😉

[@lynxg4641]

OK, those are 2 beautiful bowls, the walnut is my favourite, love how you got the design to follow the dark and light grain of the wood, or vice versa, also just love the colour of Walnut. Also, really like the texture you created on both bowls, contrasted by the smooth tops/edges, very nice. Technique question - how come at 5:00, why didn't you use a big old piece of firewwood, end grain up to do your chopping on, instead of that, what to me looks like pretty nice bench with "soft" horizontal running grain, effectively damaging the piece?

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Thanks for the kind words! An end grain chunk would definitely be idea for a long term chopping block. You are correct there

[@grahamditchfield4318]

That's an awesome technique with beautiful results. I often wonder if cracking is an issue with green wood as it dries under those finishes.

[@hungryhoss1379]

I ….would be just guessing… that bowl would sale for about 500.. dollars…. I am not sure about the price… just guessing…..For anyone that would purchase this bowl… you have to take in several variables…idea about the love and work and the vision that went in too this bowl …. It takes a long time to make beautiful art… Anyways you are something else my friend… hopefully in a 100 years when we are dead and gone… your name will still be present.. in the wood working world.

[@reltcl1995]

Very nice

[@rollingstone3017]

Wish I had a nice maple tree log like that. I do have a bunch of Hackberry tree logs though. Anybody ever tried carving a Hackberry?

[@joshuahasson9687]

When are you starting your timber frame home?

[@michaelwillson6847]

Beautiful peice what kinda price would u expect to get for something like those. Can I ask would it not have made it easier for use a power carving wheel to hog out the middle a know it was a hand carved bowl but for ease to get the innard carved out?? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

[@BadAppleWoodwerx]

Is this a skill you've had for a while or something new you went and learned? You make it seem so effortless.

[@merrillfinlayson2180]

How dry was the log when you started carving? Had the tree been down awhile?

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

The tree was fresh and the wood was green. You want green wood for carving

[@merrillfinlayson2180]

Does the bowl warp as it dries?

[@joshuabidgood2915]

Maybe I missed it, but was this all green wood? Great job BTW.

[@Trindal]

I really Really want to get a Bowl Adze. I just really Really can’t afford one made in the USA!

[@maobfh]

They both came out very nice. Was that a stain or a paint you used? You called it stain but it looks painted. Keep in mind that I don’t know nothing about nothing.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

Technically it’s a stain

[@Hockey4harry1]

More videos plz!!

[@Rossco242424]

Do you have tendonitis in your elbow? There is an exercise called the "Tyler Twist" that you do couple times a day with a flex bar. Lots of videos on YT. Very quick/easy to do and cured mine in about a week. Thanks for the video, very impressive per usual.

[@ThirdCoastCraftsman]

I have had tendinitis before but I am good now but when I do repetitive stuff like this I wear that band so to not injure my elbow again

[@soleil6343]

May I ask where you got your Adze? I want to specialize in hand tools myself, but can't find any in person and I'm not always certain of the quality vs price of ordering any online. Phenomenal work!! I don't generally comment much but I've been watching a lot of your videos!

[@ayeshadequeiroz4857]

Nice shapes. I would have used vegetable dye to stain and then oiled it.

[@hellbillyBob]

Vegetables ain't paying the bills 😆

[@Environmenthrall]

Liked before the pre-video ads even ended

[@peterkelley6344]

Is Utz ok?

[@kellypatterson6425]

Never carved. Know zilch about green wood. Won’t it crack when it dries?

[@harrynguyen2751]

Nice! Your videos should be seen by more watchers. May I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Ganjing World? Thank you!

[@JAndrioli]

I made one. In June 2024. At this rate, it takes certainly 16 hours + to get it to a rough state. If we use "standard" mecanic labour rate it should cost around 1280$ not counting materials/supplies. This is why it is not economical to make these.

[@TheCleric42]

I think the paint doesn’t work well. But the carving was great

[@TX3Oficial]

Can I have classes

[@jmert_5859]

@ 3:15, I'd be wearing metal pants and a metal cup.

[@igorberezin856]

Looks more like a bedpan

Nunca entenderé para que perder tanto tiempo en cepillar la pieza al principio si luego todo eso que cepilla va a ir fuera....🤷🏻‍♂️

[@sfeddie1]

Boy, my right arm started to ache just watching you work the ads and hatchet. That’s a lot of chopping.

[@mikefiatx19]

Really nice bowls but the paint ruined them.

[@npfrestoration]

I like your videos, I am subscribed to your channel, but in UKRAINE there is a war of electricity for 3 hours a day, I don’t have time to watch. There is no time to shoot for your channel !!!!!!

[@gandalf1124]

I realy liked the bowl, untill you added the finish. I think that ruined it. Sorry, but I think a BLO finish would have looked much better, or just the lacker without the stain.
