Red Oak Natural Edge Crotch Bowl # 123

This bowl has lots of pretty figure in it. Plus I demo a easy way to handle punky wood and quickly dry your bowl.

[@birdhunter2008]

I love your tree branch handles . What a wonderful way of making a personalized piece of art .

[@donaldadams5342]

Hi! I'm a disabled & retired Art Senior Master from South Australia & I enjoy wandering among the woodturning videos. I enjoyed the no frill commentary on what you are doing as you work plus the fact there is no distracting music playing. Kind regards, Don

[@brenturquhart7090]

That’s a real good tip. I was wondering why there were all those little baggies of fine powder on the wall. Now I know, and I’m smarter because of it, thank you for that. Any day you learn something new, is a good day.

[@ValioMadre7]

Don't forget to call your momma. Awesome bowl.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Yeah, sometimes I get in a hurry and forget. Take care, Larry

[@robertf6344]

Appreciate the No Music. Also appreciate seeing how you handle fixing when things don't go perfectly. Beautiful bowl !

[@tomcahill1609]

yes...thanks for no music....I want to hear you and the wood..

[@raycarson2504]

I really like that your videos.They are so easy to follow without the music and the technical stuff. You have done some really neat turnings including the puncky repair. I still want to buy a "Beaver" tool. So impressive. Razor in Georgia

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Can't seem to get my buddy who wanted to have beavers made to get off top dead center. Feel free to make one or have one made, won't hurt my feelings. Thanks Ray, Larry

[@justinstark2370]

Great looking bowl Larry

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks, Larry

[@MikeWaldt]

That was certainly a difficult turn Larry, but you overcame in the end. A beautiful piece my friend. Take care Mike

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks Mike, take care, Larry

[@crackerjack3359]

I too started off a few years ago with the Beal 3 wheel system. Like you I found that there was not enough room between the wheels. Instead I now use the mandrel extension from Craft supplies and change the 4" buffing mops one after the other. You can get right in under the rims and do the whole bowl inside and out.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks, it seems to work well for me now. Take care, Larry

[@robertlangley258]

My goodness man, that’s a beautiful bowl. Great video and narration. 👍👍👍

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks Robert, take care, Larry

[@vincentgolden5352]

Thanks Vincent, Larry

[@andyc9460]

Beautiful bowl and another great video

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks, it turned out nice, Larry

[@danielemanuele5827]

Wonderful bowl!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thank you, Larry

[@S-T-E-V-E]

It looks like a Yorkshire Pudding! Yum! 😂

[@donlyons8964]

Nice. Larry when I run into punky wood I use Min Wax wood hardener. It does wonders for the wood. It is water thick and soaks in to the punky and is ready in about 2 hours. Try some of that and see what you think..

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Been there, done that. The minwax sanding sealer penetrates just as well, get just as hard and is a lot cheaper. Thanks, Larry PS, drys a lot faster than the hardener. I've been thru a couples cans of the hardener, over rated.

[@donaldtrabeauxjr5323]

Very nice bowl Mr. Larry happy Easter

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks Don, Larry

[@rexoats8008]

Lovely bowl, how the hell can two people leave a dislike. Very entertaining.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

A-Holes, Thanks, Larry

[@johnnyspropshop]

Very nice gift Larry. Happy Easter to you and the family

[@TheWoodWhirler]

You too John, Larry

[@gwynneclark6372]

Hi Larry .you have some very nice chisels on the wall a video on your tools would be good and thanks for sharing your knowledge

[@TheWoodWhirler]

I use them occasionally, as needed. Thank you, Larry

[@pamelaarescurrinaga3295]

Very, very nice; a beautiful piece. Happy Easter to you and your family.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks Alan, Larry

[@judyfrancisco936]

You gave me GREAT tips thank you so much I will be looking for you next demo.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Pretty soon Judy and thank you, Larry

[@zetuskid]

Larry, I am continuously amazed how you battle Mother Nature and come out with a nice looking bowl. Very good video of never giving up. By the way, you shared with me before what you use for sanding sealer & I forgot to write it down. Could you share one more time & I promise to write it down. Thanks Happy Easter.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Yep, Minwax sanding sealer. Amazon has the best price or you can get it at Low's but it about $5/6 more. Take care, Larry

[@zetuskid]

The Wood Whirler thanks Larry, do u use water based or lacquer?

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Water, this stuff is great. Soaks in, drys quick, drys hard, easy sanding, buffable. What else do you need? Take care, Larry

[@KE4YAL]

Really nice bowl Thanks for sharing

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks Jerry, Larry

[@flappoid]

Just discovered your channel. Nice work, and great commentary WITHOUT the usual music. How about some info on your finishing materials, and the laser, as well as the brand of resin you use? Would be great for us new turners to get hints from you. And I love it that you have an old Grizzly machine. Lots of these guys have the price of a big house tied up in their lathes, mills, and CNC stuff to achieve the level of quality you get with a much more modest arsenal.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Several of my videos have that info in them. You should watch more of them at kzbin.info/door/cc2eBYsngKeDW8YqG_zc5A. My finish of choice is generally Minwax sanding sealer and I use a lot of SRC crystal clear epoxy. You can get both on Amazon. Thanks, Larry

[@hraun2berg]

Aaaannd it is a beautiful bowl, very so. Júlíus

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thanks man, Larry

[@TheWoodWhirler]

James Moore. I can't get you comment to show, don't know why. The answer to your question is "Minwax Sanding Sealer". You can get it at Lowe's or cheaper at Amazon. Thanks, Larry

[@TheWoodWhirler]

It's a whole lot cheaper at Amazon. Sorry for the delay. I don't know why I didn't see you comment earlier. Thanks, Larry

[@williampeak8851]

👍good job

[@scottgaber2267]

Another beautimus project. Great tip about using the dust. What sealer are using. Thanks Larry and keep her whirling.

[@ScumbagsUnlimited]

The bowl came out very nice and an enjoyable video to watch.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Glad you enjoyed it and thank you, Larry

[@donaldadams5342]

Forgot to add that I thought the bowl was beautiful. Don

[@jamescollins4882]

Where have you been bud? It's been a good while since you've posted a video.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Been down for some time now. I had/have one of the worst cases of shingles my doctor said he has seen. All over my left shoulder, neck, arm, chest, and back. I can't wear a shirt, so stuck in my recliner bing watching. I am out in the shop today, but it hurts like hell, I won't be out here long. I hope this crap heals soon, this is really getting old. Thanks for asking. Larry

[@tomasarguinzoni9022]

Good job sir.happy Easter

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Back to you, Larry

[@theriggsworkshop8606]

Exelkent video ..thank you ... the shine is stunning ... also i really enjoyed the editing side of your video .. one day hopefully my youtube channel will be full of great videos like yours ...thank you

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Keep on trucking and it will. Thanks, Larry

[@iannicholls2798]

beautiful piece of wood

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Thank you, Larry

[@Ronalcock1]

Hi Larry, I noticed that you seldom wax, does your finish dull after a while?

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Not that I've noticed. Depends on what a while is, I guess. I very seldom check after I'm done, just give them away. Thanks, Larry

[@stephensayers3263]

Hi Larry, happy Easter, another great video. What were the 3 sticks of waxes you used, see if I can get them in Australia. Steve SJS Wood turning

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Two are compounds, One is called triple E, White diamond and the other is just wax. Take care, Larry

[@rmacbow]

What model of laser is that? Nice bowl.

[@TheWoodWhirler]

40 Watt off Ebay. They are all the same. Larry

[@mikepruett1745]

[@AllenORourke1954]

[@TheWoodWhirler]

I will, thank you. Larry

[@debbieebbiebobebbie]

Call your mama!

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Did you? Larry

[@bobh1987]

the only thing worse than watching all you old turners over work and ruin everything with your ca glue and sawdust is listening to you drone on about it

[@TheWoodWhirler]

Then don't watch dummy. It sure won't hurt my feelings.
