Mystery Wood Bowl! 🤔 What's Your Guess?👀 - Wood Turning

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I have a couple guys coming up over the weekend to finally get the spring cleanup done here at Shady Acres. Problem is, I have a lot of work to do before they can even start! So, I will try to stop in now and then to read some comments but my replies may take awhile. As always, I DO appreciate your comments so much! Take good care, everyone! Just wait until you see what I have for you next Thursday! 😃 Phil

[@ЛеонидБрыкун]

Доброго времени суток, Фил. Правду говорят:- "Дело мастера боится". Отличная работа. Необточенная сторона вазы, придаёт ей особый шарм. Спасибо за видео.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Спасибо, что нашли время посмотреть и оставить комментарий, очень приятно! 😀

[@ThePapa1947]

Well Phil that was certainly a hard piece of wood. At least on the outside. The sand mostly likely had a lot to do with that. Seem to dull your tools pretty fast. I sure like the shape and the colors on the inside are really nice. Nice job finding a cool shape. All the right choices as the begining had all to do with that. Well done my friend, Gary

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Gary! Yup, lots of sharpening and what a mess it made spilling sand everywhere! LOL! Just part of the game, I guess. Take good care, buddy! 😀

[@judebrown4103]

Well there you go again Phil! For a bit there i was thinking: who ate you and what have you done with Phil?! What with it being a round bowl looking like all the bark was goung too😂. Then somehow all that character emerged and there was bark left after all and the piece just became so interesting. Those cracks were pretty scary too eh?! Cheers Phil, good luck with the clean up before the clean up.😁😄👍

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Haha, thank you, Jude! 😀

[@hccdoc]

Once again, Phil, you took a piece of wood most of us would chuck into the burn pile and made something beautiful out of it. You have quite a gift for seeing the beauty in every piece of wood that comes your way. We are all grateful for your gift and for you sharing it with us!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@rayworstine4399]

Good evening, Phil. I really liked watching you turn this wooden bowl. Well, I did wish you wouldn't have needed to sharpen as much. Cracks, live edge, heartwood, all contribute to this beautiful bowl.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much, Ray! 😀

[@kateristrobel2022]

According to my husband,you are turning something they call in the Dominican Republic (uva de playa) beach grape. It grows in Miami and the Caribbean islands near the ocean.

[@randywood8658]

Hello Phil I think it is juniper good job keep up good work Thanks 😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Valerie says Pecan, Randy. 😀

[@jwrowland77]

Great little bowl! Love watching the videos. So glad you put them out once a week. I’ll be out of turning for a bit while I have my shoulder repaired! Age and sports have caught up with me. lol 😂

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you! Hang in there, this too shall pass! 😀

[@jerryhammond2730]

This was a real ugly duckling/beautiful swan episode. This is the type of turning I really enjoy. This must be one of the most beautiful bowls you have ever done. The rim glitters like gold plate. All the holes, inclusions, cracks and heart wood make this an unforgettable piece. Thank you for sharing this turning with us.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much Jerry! 😀

[@RG-ce5hj]

Howdy Phil, great Job! 🤓

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@RightHandShot]

The imperfections and cracks give it a lot of character, well done.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@CaptJohn-op3bf]

That turned out to be a very beautiful bowl Phil! As always very nice work!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, John! 😀

[@stephenmccool8127]

Great piece. Love the holes and cracks and character in that bowl. Beautiful! I was going to guess maybe cypress, but Valerie says otherwise. No matter... it's pretty awesome.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you! Cheers! 😀

[@jackthompson5092]

Very nice Phil and Valerie.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@edwinahill6400]

I just watched you turning a piece of Corkwood absolutely beautiful. It’s just beautiful. I love the dark color.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yup, one of my favorite woods to turn. Thank you! 😀

[@WoodenItBeNice]

Gorgeous Phil. Thank you Valerie. I can't remember you ever saying time to sharpen again so many times, LOL. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yeah, the outside was a son of a gun to get turned, Huw. Thankfully, I still have some gouge left for the next one! 😀

[@bennetthicks5974]

That one was a tough customer!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@JamesCouch777]

Whatever it is it turned out beautifully!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Valerie says it's Pecan, James! 😀

[@howardnielsen6220]

Magic Phil turned Ugg to Beautiful Nice

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, Howard! 😊

[@michaelbrown2678]

Beautiful work Phil! It's truly a gift to be able bring out the imperfections in such a perfect way! God Bless you my friend! 😎👍🏻🥃🇺🇸

😀

[@Hog-g2z]

The imperfections make it into a beautiful piece of art, and with your skills at the end of the turning tool 🔨 😂 you’ve turned into a cracking 😂 piece, Of Art, my work shop is coming along, hoping to finish the river side back wall, this weekend, and next week start to build 6mt long cupboards and storage, with a place to put my chopsaw as well, and I need to fit my electric winch into the beams in the roof so I can lift up my resaw , oh how I miss my workshop from back in the UK, that was about 8m x 30m+ long, weather permitting today on my hog , 😂, Keep up the great work , from France,

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I hope the weather worked out for you, Hog! 😀

[@Hog-g2z]

@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop , I needed some timber for my garage/workshop, on Thursday, as it has been raining on and off, so I didn’t Hogey , Sunday was the first day no rain, but cannot get out as timber is in the was , I have 5 large beams 4+mt x200x74 , to finish the front of work shop, + I don’t want my neighbours, to know that I have got a Hog yet , so I am waiting to they go to work either tomorrow, but sometime this week, They have got such a long nose , 🤥, it will be back in the UK before I know it that I’ve got one,

[@jimsweeney]

Well that came out a lot better than I would have expected. Unlike last week's beautiful black walnut fruit bowl, this piece looked like it was destined for the woodpile. Nice job of bringing out its inner beauty 🌳

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Jim! 😀

[@aaronjolley4413]

That tight undulating grain on the inside, and the heartwood looks to me like Juniper… I think you were right! Here in Utah the Juniper thrives in the West desert sand!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@williamellis8993]

Nice bowl, Phil. As much as you sharpened, I expected your newer gouge to match your older one lol. Bill

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

It's getting there in a hurry, Bill! I guess I've had some tough pieces lately. I think I've take 2" off of it! 😀

[@TerryBinder-r4n]

Another beautiful bowl. Love all the cracks and live edges. Had a piece of juniper I turned from a friend that was from northern Wisconsin witch is all sand country . Lots of stopping and reshaping also. Thanks for another AWSOME video. Terry

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Oh wow! Thanks, Terry! 😀

[@DiplodocusJackson]

Looks great. It looked like you took a heck of a beating on the outside. And good luck getting stuff cleaned up so you can get stuff cleaned up.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Haha, the cleaning is done and yeah, it was a two-day chore! Then, all looking good, the wind came last night and now the ground is covered again with little red things that fall from the Fir trees! Oh, well! 😀

[@susannah4Him]

Again, a lovely creation!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@johnsmith-xr6qy]

While watching this turning I was surprised to see over 100 likes in a few minutes. I guess we all like Phil's art work any time we can watch. Thank you Phil!

[@MarklTucson]

I always look forward to Thursdays -- they are Phil Anderson nights. 😃

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, John! 😀

[@MarkHandsaker-ir3xr]

I don't completely understand how your eyes always see something in a piece of wood. You just seem to see something and as always it comes out great! Keep up the great turning! Some day I hope to be able to turn 1/2 as good. Keep up the great work!😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Mark! It isn't so much seeing what's in there, it's being willing to just turn it and find out! 😀

[@scottcates]

Superb, Phil. I really enjoy your narration, too.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Many thanks! 😀

[@carolriley8472]

Another gorgeous piece...love the crotch grain!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@TheMessyStudio]

Another great looking piece, Phil!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Billy! 😀

[@daveisaacs4311]

The heartwood inside looks like a swan with its head under its wing to me, thanks for the vids Phil always enjoy your work 🙂👌🏻

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Dave! 😀

[@iangordon5354]

Carole (my lovely wife of almost 35 years) says that the cracks on the outside you commented on just before turning the piece around look like some big animal had a go at it with very sharp claws. We also love the different colour tones.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Cool! Thank you Ian and Carole! 😀

[@auntietara]

I saw a mitten inside the bowl, but somebody else saw a bird, and that’s much nicer. 😊 Love the cracks and stripes and dents and the wavy edge. Beautiful, as always! 🥰

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you! 😊

[@1957Loyal]

Loving the colors of that bowl!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I'm glad, thank you! 😀

[@dt.woodcreations2064]

Missed this one some how. So you were turning in the sand box. Lots of sharpening. Love the piece. Nice work Phil. Always entertaining and a learning experience for me. Today’s lesson keep the tools sharp. I know there are times when I know I should stop and put an edge back on my gouge but I am so close to finishing that I just keep on going and it shows in my work. Kinda like you say just one more pass and it is one cut too many. Thanks Phil. Have a good week. Dan

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

It took a lot of discipline for me to learn to just go sharpen when the tool needs it. Now, I can almost not wait to sharpen because it makes turning so much more enjoyable. A great jig certainly helps! 😊

[@WalterKnapp-ku5pi]

It's a beautiful bowl.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, I really appreciate it, Walter! 😀

[@J.Ferghus]

Wow, super cool piece. Well done, Phil.

Thanks, Jonny, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 😊

Must be Thursday, cuz that's another work of art from the master. I like it Phil thank you for showing the battle...Dan

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks a lot, Dan! 😀

[@gregdownunderinOz]

Another nice-one Phil. Wood looks a little light in colour for juniper but? This certainly posed you some problems, thanks for talking through them all and solutions.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Greg! 😀

[@stephanielovatt2787]

I was wondering if the wood might be liquidamber, because you said it smelt sweet. However, then came the sand, so now I'm not sure. Lovely bowl, though, whatever the wood may be! Well done, yet again!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

It's Pecan from Pasco WA, Stephanie. Valerie claimed it and told me the species. I'm glad you like it, thank you! 😄

[@edwardhand7070]

Awesome piece again Phil. your instruction on how to use tools in the correct way is the best way to keep an accident from happing for someone just learning. Happy turning my friend 😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Edward! 😀

[@edh3635]

Good job as always, Phil.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@jnol9009]

Another gorgeous piece Phil. You truly have a skill for taking ordinary or even less than ordinary pieces of wood and making extraordinary. Very well done. Thx and take care.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much 😀

[@marywright1057]

Once again you took a questionable piece of wood and turned it into a gorgeous bowl!!! Your ability to see the beauty in an old piece of wood is amazing. God blessed you with a wonderful talent. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend. 🙂

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Mary! 😀

[@JD-xg3ek]

I noticed you had a real bumpy ride on this bowl. Lots of cool character everywhere you look. Glad you left the bark on the two sides. I really like this bowl. Well done Phil. Thanks for the show. Joel

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks 👍

[@josephcote6120]

All the cracks make it look really interesting. I think trimming before turning was a good move, the heartwood showing is a nice touch.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Great point! 😀

[@huberthicks9080]

A classic Shady Acres turning, Phil. You definitely have the eye of an artist. You turned a piece of firewood into a lovely bowl. Thanks for sharing.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you kindly, Hubert! 😀

[@donaldadams5342]

I have to say that this is a very delightful crotch bowl Phil, in spite of not knowing the species or origin. I like the shape, I like the figure & I like the finish too. Nothing to dislike about this one so thanks for sharing Phil. Stay well my friend & cheers, Don from South Aust.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Valerie says Pecan, Don. Thank you, my friend! 😀

[@AlienLeader4]

Very awesome piece. I really like how you can take an odd shape or a piece no one would turn and make such beautiful pieces. Favorite comment "i get bored staying in one spot". Me too lived in the same house for about 9 years now and i am ready to move. Lol. I know thats not what you meant though. Keep up the amazing work. 👽

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you so much 😀

[@douglasmccart9288]

You made the right choices again. A beautiful work of art. I really like the contrast in the wood colors. A piece of firewood into a collectors item.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Douglas! 😀

[@davidjackson8787]

Yeah beautiful piece as always Phil. 😀

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you like it! 😀

[@54lespaul3]

Very nice Phil! I didn’t think you’d get that far with all the cracks on the sides, but there ya go! Turned out lovely. Yes I do like it. Your stuff always has great character. Cheers, Rick

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you enjoyed it Rick, thanks! 😀

[@brendadriver2702]

Love the swirl in the crotch wood. The edge looks really nice too! Thanks Phil!

I like the natural “flaws”. More character that way.

Hi Phil, hope you and the family are well. Thank you for such a beautiful piece, despite all of the work it turned out quite a good looking bowl but then I'm not surprised in your hands. Keep well and stay safe. Best wishes from Sonja x

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you very much, Sonja! 😀

[@kristikey8320]

One of your best in my opinion. So natural looking! It seems to me that when a wood fights you as hard as this one did, it is trying to hide the treasure inside.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

You are probably right, Kristi! 😀

[@brunomerk7635]

Wow, this looked like really hard work. It seemed you had to nibble off every mm in an own go. It was a great idea to keep the grey outer side this adds a lot of character to the piece. Good job, well done.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😀

[@colleenmccarthy-evans3149]

love the beautiful bird on the inside of the bowl!

Thank you! 😊

Hi Phil! What a beautiful piece. I really love this. Hope yer spring clean-up goes well. We had more branches down this past winter than I have ever seen. Been enjoying a spring that has stayed pleasantly cool. No hot, sticky days yet. Loved reading the exchange about what tree this piece came from. I could hear the wind and sand blowing around. Take care.🛶🌷🌳

[@fredlewis1945]

Very interesting piece. I love the colors and he live edge. I did not see any animal faces in this bowl.

[@dougpringle8938]

It has a lot of character with the different colors of the wood. It's another beautiful piece of art Phil and as always thanks for sharing with your KZbin family

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

My pleasure! 😀

[@EdwinGibbons-u2y]

When I first saw the wood at the beginning of your video, I thought: "That is a piece of Juniper!" It looks like a piece of weathered wood such as we have here in the high desert where I live. Whatever it is, and whoever sent it, I like it! It turned out beautifully. Thanks for sharing.

[@patconrad1045]

If it smells like medicine then it's most likely Juniper.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😀

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

Wow, what a transformation! I'm glad you were persistent at taking off the parts that got in the way of the beauty underneath. It's another great piece of art!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Cool, thanks! 😀

[@chrispark3758]

Another beautiful piece. I just started turning, age 70. Hope i am able to get half as good as you are. I just have my Dad's old sears lathe & spindle gouges. I did by a bowl gouge & scraper.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you very much! I started getting serious about it at 69. I wondered if I should spend the money for a new lathe, or would I not get enough time to enjoy it. So far, so good! 😀

[@scottbeilsmith4261]

Once again, you have turned a piece of wood, that most would have thrown to the fire pit, into a beautiful looking bowl. Phil, you are a one of a kind turner. No matter what a piece of wood looks like, you can always find nature’s beauty in it. Thanks for sharing and take care.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Scott! 😀

[@pippin1ful]

Masterful, Phil, whatever that wood is, you've done it justice.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

[@danellabarnes-penman1118]

Regardless of the wood variety, that Y crotch figure on the inside is spectacular! Congratulations on finding that center and making it stand out so well!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Danella! Pecan! 😀

[@robertm348]

Ah, yes! Another silk purse from a pig's ear episode! But we don't know what kind of pig just yet. I would bet against a juniper pig because they have a distinct smell that is unmistakable. Nice work, Phil! Sounds like you got enough sand out of that blank to repave your driveway!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Haha, just about, Robert! 😀

[@alangibb3100]

Phil that was a fantastic job there buddy it looked like that wood was really hard as a lot of saw dust rather than shavings.Well done.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yes, much hard than I thought. Thanks, Alan! 😀

[@DennisDolan-fl3mw]

Phil, it is an extreme pleasure to watch your wood turning expertise but we can all tell what a nice pleasant man you are.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Dennis! 😀

[@bryanstiles3569]

Just like always, another great looking bowl. Love the big holes and natural cracks. Makes you wonder, if the inside was that easy. Why wasn't the outside. Lol. Have a good weekend Phil.

Hi Phil Doesn't that sand make it fun!!!!! Since I use mainly carbide it only takes an Allen wrench and two minutes to have a new cutting edge so not quite as bad as sharpening. Still made a nice bowl with beauty heart wood in the bottom. Take care Bob

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you! 😀

[@tuffymartinez]

Thank You Phil, Thank You Valerie.... Quite the chunk of drift or ocean beach wood. It sure had that look before you started. I really did not think it was going to cleanup as well as it did. Well Phil I think you lucked out pretty good on this turning (I mean YOUR EXPERIENCED SELF DID GREAT on this turning). With all the cracks, that hole did not come through and all the silicone impregnation in the that brittle wood. Yea you did very, very well. EXCELLENT TURNING PHIL.... Until next time... TM

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you enjoyed it, Tuffy, thank you! 😀

[@RosesResinPeace]

I really like the lines on the sides, and the squiggles on the top edge. Bug tracks? It gives it a lot of character and interest. It turned out quite lovely. You have a knack for bringing the best out of a piece of wood.
