Rhododendron ROOT BEAUTY! - Wood Turning

Sometimes a piece just calls out and says "pick me, pick ME!" That's what this one did. I'm glad I gave in though it wasn't much of a fight. I love turning root balls and this turns out to be one of my favorites! Finished in shellac.

It's gorgeous! I'm very happy that you were able to figure a way to mount this one, Phil. I've stared at it for several years and couldn't figure that out. So, sending it your way was absolutely the right decision. An incredibly beautiful bowl! Very well turned/unturned! 👍

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, Dave for sending this to me. I knew it was a winner as soon as I opened the package! I love it, buddy! 😊

[@David-jn4fx]

Phil! What a wonderful piece! So many awesome characteristics. I appreciate you so much and look forward to every video! 💪You are one of the greatest turners and keep the true nature in every piece you work on! Be well Phil! 😃

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks a lot, David! 😊

[@motte6780]

Allways a pleasure to watch how you fall in love with a peace of wood. For other people bark mulch, for us a beautiful gift Mother Nature send us. Thank you for sharing!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you for watching! 😊

[@carsonwells1785]

I beginning to realize that you are a natural ham. You play to the camera. And don't you dare stop. Your conversation, both to us and to yourself is what keeps us coming back. Giving a part of yourself is what wants us to give back, to know you better, to send you crazy chunks of wood and watch you work your magic on them. You don't make your videos into a classroom where you have a particular skill or knowledge that you are trying to impart. Instead, each video is, if I may borrow the phrase, a magical mystery tour. Another extraordinary bowl, Phil. Keep those chips flying. Best.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Paul called, he wants his lyrics back! 😊

[@ThePapa1947]

Wow Phil you are right. This is one beautiful and unique bowl. I would say it is right on the top of the list for my favorite. For sure the rounded areas fit right in there with all the nature. Smarties might look good in it but they look pretty darn good in a a paper picnic bowl...just ask Gord LOL You have a right to be proud of this one my friend! Take care, Gary

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks a lot, Gary! This one just spoke to me and mapped out the whole turn. I just held the chisel. Hard to go wrong with a rhody root! 😊

[@ThePapa1947]

Hard to beat turning on Auto Pilot! But for sure you have programed it very well!

[@scotts8220]

With all the bad news going on in the world, it's nice to end the week on a good note with the simplicity and beauty of another bowl crafted by Phil. I think I enjoy your "let's try it and see" approach and decisions you make while turning, as well as your pleasure in pointing out the natural features of the piece at the end of your videos the most. Thank you, Phil. Nicely done!

Don't use it for anything. Why hide the beauty. Is the Mona Lisa used as a tray? Great one Phil. Thx A bunch.

LOL! I have a great battery-op small chainsaw and permission to take whatever I want from the mixed hardwood and berry briar woods down the lane from the house. It's all going to be developed eventually, so the owner doesn't care. Apple, pear, cherry, wild plum, alder, oak, hawthorn, ash, more ash, and yet more..... Yeah, some gnarly stuff.
