Letting The Wood Choose - Wood Turning - New Video!

A beautiful piece of spalted Weeping Birch caused me to turn a round bowl for a change! Most of my turnings are natural pieces with bark, bark inclusions, voids, etc. This piece is perfect except for some punkiness that did give me some extra work to do. Still, it polished up beautifully and it was fun to turn! More pieces of this wood to follow in the coming months.

It is March 26, 2023. I just thought it was funny that this has been out a year and this is the first time I remember seeing it. And you’re right that wood it’s gorgeous. I like the way you shaped it not just round. Such a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing it.

No need to envy the 'Big Kids' as you call them, you're right up there with the best of them in my humble opinion. And i can't wait to see what you will do with the other cuts.

[@tomjpt]

Oh Phil! You think so little of us if you really believe anyone could/would/should be disappointed that this turning is not live edge. It just shows your versatility and it is truly a beautiful piece of wood. Now, for the news you and all your viewers have been anxiously awaiting. The votes are in, tallied and then recounted because Andy Phillip insisted. You have been elected as the Woodturner with the Best Hands of 2021. Don't know why Andy wanted a recount as he only got 2 of the 46,209 votes cast. I'll never understand politics I guess. Always, always, always such a pleasure to watch you turn. Go Phil Go!

Lovely, I would be proud to own it and say it was a Phil Anderson piece. I would be even prouder to have turned it myself, I'll get there. Please, please, keep up the good work, my friend.

[@sabrina-wq4uu]

I see a dragon's head in the spalting. When working with wood, it's always a good idea to listen to what it tells you. The piece is fairly simple, but the wood you used and the craftsmanship of your turning and finishing makes it a complex and interesting piece of art. Well done, Phil!

Glad you enjoyed it, Ray, thanks! 😊

[@jimsweeney]

You're quite right about letting the wood speak for itself. Turning exotic shapes works well for a lot of pieces, but that mellow, spalted wood looks like an ancient map. The elegant bowl shape shows that off, while not overpowering the effect of the grain. Good one.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

That's what I thought too, Jim. Thanks! 😊

[@GordonRock1]

Welcome back, Phil. I love this piece. I realize that it is much different from your usual pieces but I think this might be one of my very favorite of your turnings. Yes, that would have a lot to do with what Mother Nature gave you to work with but your turning was absolutely masterful. Also, your decision on how to turn it was so well planned. You are the master, my friend, and it was a pleasure to watch you turn this one! I'm sure you are as happy to be back in your shop as we are to have you back. Stay well, buddy!! .....Gord

[@danieledmond94]

Oh my friend Phil, you are indeed the maestro, the professor of wood turning and believe me, I think I have learnt enough about showcasing bark. I have not been able to see much about your mastery in turning pieces without bark - which, I am sure, you have also mastered. Please consider the rest of us who enjoy the wider appreciation of "artistic wood turning, as I have enjoyed that piece👍.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I'm glad you've learned about turned pieces with bark, Daniel. 😃 It's what I like to do. I try to keep as much nature in my pieces as possible. I have turned several pieces without bark, even "artistic" pieces. There are two things about that, for me. I find a nice square or round, flawless piece, intimidating. I don't know what to do with them. If I finally figure out what to do with them, I find I'm not having any fun and they end up like a perfectly flawless turning that anyone could do. Rather boring. I'll stick to what I know and do best, if that's OK with you.

[@DS-ky9dl]

That is beautiful....you were so right to let the wood speak. Can't wait for your next piece.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@valeriehenschel1590]

I like how you chose to section off the wood. Nothing wrong with turning a classic shape when the wood says to do so. It turned out very nice. Hope it does not spoil you into turning “regular” pieces too often.🤣🤣🤣. Your voice sounds much steadier, so feel free to turn more “easier” pieces so you don’t overdo while your health continues to improve.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
