Honey Locust Bowl # 256

This was a large piece of Honey Locust that I felt would make a nice bowl.
Beavers are not available at this time. When they become available, I will post it on this channel. .

Fantastic, thanks very much for posting. To me it's more meaningful when a bowl is turned from a log instead of a blank.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

It feels like more of an accomplishment. Take care, Larry

Oh wow Larry this is an awesome and stunningly beautiful bowl the wood grain is out of this world. Every time some one turns a bowl I am stunned to see the difference in the grain ftom tree to tree. God's creation is so awesome and stunningly beautiful.

Real pretty piece of wood, Larry. Lots of color and spalting. You did a great job turning and finishing it, too! Keep'em coming, buddy! Phil

[@markfishburn8284]

The bowl came out very nice, I haven't turned much honey locust. It has a beautiful grain pattern. Thank you for sharing your video.

Absolutely stunning bowl Mr. Larry

[@joannkister2540]

I like it very beautiful

[@carolriley8472]

That is such a gorgeous bowl...I love the coloring in the Honey Locust! I used my Beaver today on a bowl I made from a Maple burl cap.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Great, so you like it? If you noticed, I almost used nothing but a beaver to turn that bowl. Hard as that wood was, one would have had to sharpen a gouge about 10 or more times to get the same end product. Take care, Larry

[@bnaivar]

What Poly do you use Larry? I'm not getting a good shine on my projects and I'd like to try adding some poly to the finish.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Varathane water-based Polyurathane. Make sure you get the high gloss. Two coats, steel wool 0000. Ack's paste and polish. That's the way I do it and you've seen my finishes. Take care, Larry

[@davidnickell9381]

I have seen several videos of honey locust being turned (I think flat tractor tires!). Have you ever turned black locust (I think fence posts)?

[@TheWoodWhirler]

No, not yet, looking for some. Thanks, Larry

[@davidnickell9381]

@@TheWoodWhirler we use black locust for fence posts here. I hope to cut some for bowl blanks this winter when the sap is down. I tried already dead wood and it was really nice grain, but very difficult to turn.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

@@davidnickell9381 That's right, my dad who lived in the foothills of the Ozarks did the same thing. He had a small cattle ranch.

[@ericmoorehead1100]

Curious what is the wall thickness?

[@TheWoodWhirler]

1/4" or so. Thanks, Larry

[@charleswilliams4517]

Where do I get a beaver cutter. Great job

[@TheWoodWhirler]

My Beaver is homemade. I did sell some for a while, but the guy making them for me quit and I haven't been able to find a replacement. Larry

@@TheWoodWhirler is there any way I could get some close up pictures so I can make one. Thanks
