Turning The Impossible - Wood Turning

[@Coyote48]

Your vision is remarkable. Thank you for teaching

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

So nice of you, Wile, thank you!

[@gregdagg9305]

Phil, you are the master of the Franken-bowl..

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Haha, I'll take it, Greg, thanks! 😊

[@birdman858]

Not a teacher??? What??? I’ve been a turner longer than most have been alive, but you teach me every week. You turn things most of us would put in the pot belly stove...and you make the piece suitable for display in a museum. And you make it fun to watch. My Thursday treat. Thanks Phil!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Wow, what a great comment, Jay, thank you! 😊

[@JamesCouch777]

Totally agree 👍

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

I love that you save as much of the natural wood as possible! The “giraffe” looked more like a mountain goat to me.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Cool, thanks Chrissy! 😊

[@robertweldon7909]

Phil, there are several reasons why your channel is so popular. Among these reasons are these three most important ones. 1. you are a real person, no pretense. 2. you take the time to explain what you are doing and why, even though you have done it many times before. 3. you are honestly entertaining. These and a whole bunch more is what makes you a real expert, whether you thinks so or not. Again you are not just a wood turner, but an artist. ;-)

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Gosh, thank you so much for your kind comment, Robert! 😊

[@WoodenItBeNice]

I totally agree Robert. Huw

[@zetuskid]

Awh, Robert, he won’t listen to you. People been telling him for years that he is special but it just rolls off his back like water. I guess he is just a shy one. But I love him anyway! Hardheaded or not........

[@rondasmith2950]

Love it💙

[@KspaceDoc]

Very well said @Robert Weldon.

[@alanbrandt4677]

Phil. Your videos are a joy to watch. Plenty of comments and education guidance. Yet not too much. You are my favorite. You don't juat turn a piece but you are always answering the why quedtion. You are talking like we are standing right beside you. Always looking forward to your next post. Someday I would love to purchase one of your works and meet you in person. God Bless.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Awesome, thank you, Alan! Wouldn't it be great if we could all meet up? I'd love that! 😊

[@donaldtrabeaux5235]

Absolutely stunning Mr.Phil, sorry I missed some of your videos been down with my back since January 1st , take care my friend god bless

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

No worries, Donald, I know how that can be. Hopefully you are on the mend. Take good care, my friend! 😊

[@ivanleterror9158]

It's hard sitting through the explanations but your videos teach as well as entertain.

I'm glad you stuck with me, Ivan, thank you!

[@randycarroll-bradd4894]

I love it! This one is awesome. I've watched this over and over trying to see the bowl in the raw wood. I think you must have the soul of an archeologist.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😊

[@bobbyday1216]

I love that it's important to you to have the natural look of the wood be part of the overall design.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Absolutely essential, Bobby, I'm glad you can appreciate the nature in a piece, too! Thank you! 😊

How could anyone not watch all your videos

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

That's what I'm wondering, Robert! LOL!

[@randykniebes5364]

very unique bowl... Lots of different steps and decisions.... Some great ideas for some of my weird looking pieces of hardwood.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Glad you liked it, Randy! No such thing as firewood anymore! LOL!

[@ericmoorehead1100]

Phil-I have been watching your videos regularly for the last couple of months. You have provided me great insights and confidence to take on a burl and turn it like you have demonstrated. I just finished my first such piece and submitted to a juried art show. Wood was a Buckeye Burl. I want to thank you so very much.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Great to hear, Eric! I hope you get in. Once you start turning stuff like that it's hard to go back to plain round bowls. Thanks for letting me know! 😊

[@markgilmour7162]

At the of the video I'm thinking no way could you do anything with that peace but you've done it again its a beauty Phil

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you very much, Mark!

[@larrycoleman2225]

Wow, just wow! Gorgeous result. Have to mention, I too am a wood burner that can longer just throw a piece of "firewood" into the flames without first giving it a sharp eye for what may be a hidden treasure if given the chance to spin on my lathe. My building now has over 150 specimens awaiting their chance to show their better self. LOL I hope I can eventually get to them and make a treasure for someone to enjoy. Keep up the great videos. I enjoy being in your shop and learning from one of the good guys.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Wow, you're all set, Larry! Enjoy your turnings and thank you!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I'm fortunate to have had the opportunity to get into woodworking 50 years ago, Susan. It's not too late, ya know. I got serious about woodturning at 69. 😊

[@robertbryant1204]

I echo the teacher comments here. To me the most inspiring thing is watching how much enjoyment you get out of turning. It's infectious. Also I catch myself looking at a hunk of wood and asking WWPD "What would Phil do?

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Phil would turn it, Rick and he recommends you do, too! Let me know how it goes. 😊

[@monopinion8799]

You are so right. I ask myself the very same question. He is such an amazing Woodturner and an artist doing so. The fascinating craftsmanship he has already a vision of how the piece of log , crotch, or a burl the size of his fist, will look like. Isn’t amazing how quickly he finds his centrées just by eyeing it??

[@williamfawkes8379]

The weirder the wood, the happier the result. I just can't pass up working on the same sort of pieces that you seem to enjoy, so it is a real treat to watch you do your thing. My Dad was an engineer at 3M, and he used to work in abrasives, so I still have boxes of stuff squirreled away from the "old" days when everything wasn't so tight. That's been a real help, as everything costs so much now, even sandpaper that used to be worth pennies.

Gosh Phil, you are so brave. All those wild animals lurking there just awaiting to take a bite out of you, and over 90% of the time you don't even wear gloves. As I said 'so brave'. Joking aside I have turned a few pieces as danger filled as that lovely example you have there and have felt that bite when suddenly, mainly due to my own carelessness, the spinning jaws of some even maybe extinct animal, takes a chunk out of my finger. Must admit I love these challenging 'art' pieces as much, if not more than you do. Thanks so much once again. Stay safe Sir.

Phil, I don't know if you get notified of comments on older videos but I started watching you about 3 months ago. Now, among a few other channels, I'm going backwards to watch all the projects. I am just amazed every time! You spent time pointing out some features that we wouldn't have time to spot in the beauty shots and that's really cool! Until I get the nerve to try this myself, you will continue to amaze me. If I try a few times and fail...or succeed but find out how difficult it doubtlessly is, you'll amaze me even more. Your ability to read the rough piece in front of you is a natural, God given gift. I just love them all! And...you are a natural teacher. Maybe you don't realize it but your presentation is articulate and makes perfect sense...that makes it easy for us to learn by watching...only a teacher could accomplish that.

Each time I asked he would say the last one he had was the best one he had ever had! Your videos are the same, each one is better than the one before.
