🆒 Use Your Wood Lathe For Gifts and $ales! - Wood Turning

[@MadonnaThornton.Woodworks]

Now that is a beautiful bowl! Wow! Sometimes the simplest wood makes the best bowls!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I totally agree! 😄

[@torontocitizen6802]

Very nice little piece! Who knows what little gem hides in a piece of wood?

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@williamfawkes8379]

Quick and easy, but also very lovely. This is exactly the size for M & Ms.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@davidbaxter5132]

"Quick and easy" in your hands maybe! - perhaps it would take a little longer for we mere mortals! Another lovely bowl, Phil, thank you for sharing; I look forward to your videos and have learned so much.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Many thanks! 😊

[@Hog-g2z]

Hi 👋, as you say, nice and easy, lemon squeezy, Great project and should so well at craft fair,

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you! 😊

[@tonithomas393]

Love the contrast of the smooth, dark bark against the pale wood.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Always my favorite part, Toni! 😊

[@dianeclemmer1344]

Nice looking,❤️ little bowl !

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

[@CraigInNC]

The knots give it that nice punch of character.

[@user-pk2fg8im4u]

Hey Phil, I'm doing taxes so I'm taking a break, and lo and behold a new video from you! Perfect timing! I can't say that you needed all of your "Phearless Phil" capabilities on this one, but you sure used your "Master of the Lathe" talents. It's a very nice project, and so relaxing to watch you work and narrate what you are doing. Thank you! Hope all is well with you, as for me, back to taxes. Blessings, Rick

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Oh, man, I'm putting mine off till April, Rick! 😊

[@EngelsNederfiele]

It might have been pretty uniform grain but the tree rings still gave it some visual interest.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@Audie1234]

❤Beautiful Phil.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@texanasimmons1761]

This a such a pretty little bowl! I love the knots and tight grain. This would be a perfect bowl to sit on a table or shelf by the front door to empty your pockets into! Thanks, Phil!❤

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yup, great for that, Texana! 😊

[@debramacnabb1704]

maybe quick and easy but like always your crafts are awesome thanks

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Debra! 😊

[@margareteast9273]

Quick, simple, but beautiful.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

The bowl is pretty as can be! And no problems, wow! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Will Shorty Gouge be forced into retirement? He must have participated in the creation of many beautiful pieces and could tell some tales about the workshop. 😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yeah, it's getting real close to retirement time for the little guy. 😊

[@AnnaAnna-uc2ff]

That is a very pleasing dish.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, Anna! 😊

[@cliffboulton8763]

I know I haven't seen all your videos, Phil, but i don't think you have ever turned anything that I wouldn't want to keep. Above that, I wish I had your Talent and patience and could do it myself. Thanks from UK for some very interesting and "watchable" videos.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

It's a "learned" talent, Cliff, not something I was born with. Many, many hours of practice and fail to get to this point. 😊

[@howardnielsen6220]

Phil Thank You Howard and Susie

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

You're welcome, thanks for watching! 😊

[@bricofleur1768]

Giving such bowls is as much satisfying as turning them. I believe giving is as much addictive as turning (let's think about that for a while) lol. Best, Serge

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

[@albertdawson6814]

Just a great job like always Phil. Always a very enjoyable video. Thank you for sharing

I loved this piece 3 minutes in a the end result was even more amazing 👍🏻😁

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Cool, thanks, Robert! 😊

[@bskelton8712]

Hi Phil Quick and easy is sometimes a nice break from the ones that only turn with a fight. Jelly bean bowl for me also like the knot, breaks up the simple grain pattern. Take care bob

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

For sure, Bob, thanks! 😊

[@alanneel2749]

Easy peasy ….. easier than the burl a few weeks ago!! You probably are still recovering from that monster!!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yup, that's why the easy peasy variety! 😊

[@daviddejong187]

Really a beautiful bowl Phil! I'm envious of the varieties of wood you get to turn

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

I'm a very fortunate guy, David! 😊

[@54lespaul77]

Everyone deserves a treat now and then! This is one of those times I guess especially after the last challenge. It looks lovely and I’m sure feels like a million bucks! Cheers, Rick

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, Rick! 😊

[@earlmiller5353]

I really love that thin edge. Really highlites the bowl

I can almost feel the smoothness. I love using Howards, it is usually my go to finish.

Good stuff, Keith! 😊

Well that was fun Phil Dang 20 minutes. Shoot in the shape I am in I would be happy with 4 days LOL. Lot of fun watching this one come to shape. See you soon my friend, Gary

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

It was just so much fun, Gary! Turning at high speeds is like taking a vacation! 😊

You know what I see Phil? A nice M&M bowl. 😊 Very lovely bowl.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Yup, perfect, Laura! 😊

[@jonmartineau1004]

What a cute little dish Phil . I find these little and quick projects a real treat to turn and finish . Like you said , 15-20 minutes and done . Great job Phil . Have a great weekend .

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@michaelmcdermott2178]

Simple bowl, simple wood. It seems almost Japanese to me. I like it.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@lewisgreenway5065]

Looked a bit plain and ordinary before turning quite a bit to see when finished, always pleasing when that happens, good job Phil. 😁

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Lewis! 😊

[@carlspringle9342]

Another gorgeous piece Phil. As always your work is stunning. Thanks for sharing.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Carl! 😊

Another very nice live edge bowl / dish that will look great filled with hard candy

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@janeoverby2151]

It is a lovely little bowl. And actually, the Laural is very pretty. Sometimes, a bland piece of wood can show off its unique beauty just by being "bland." The bark is gorgeous.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@clydeschuyler]

Beautiful work Phil. Simple, quick, and easy but still wonderful.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, Clyde! 😊

[@johnwhite6899]

🙋‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Hi Phil im glad I read some of the comments because I was going to say how good European's are but it turns out it's American, never mind no fear of poisoning this week. Phil another brilliant video thanks so much for all the work you put in each week.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thank you, John! 😊

[@deirdrebaker9601]

The sheer plainness of this piece helps to make it attractive. This could be anything, or hold anything, or be displayed in any room. Heck, it could even be somewhat utilitarian or purely decorative. I like to imagine it holding a bright, colorful potpourri. I would imagine that yes, it would make a great 'thank you' gift or a hostess gift.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Sure! Thank you, Deirdre! 😊

[@jackthompson5092]

This is a lovely bowl. 1500 rpm the chips were flying! I like the grain and color. Feed and Wax I like the finish. Thanks for the show. Joel

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

So much more fun to turn at high speed, Joel! 😊

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

Actually, I have to correct my identification of the wood. It's laurel, but not European! It's actually an American native called North Carolina cherry laurel. The trees grow to huge, majestic shade trees. Now, back to the video.

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Was wondering!

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

@@valeriehenschel1590 I've got more! Found some right here in McMinnville at the Recology yard waste dump. I swear, wood finds me, even when I'm not looking.

[@renegonzalez8070]

Beautiful work Phil I have a question to ask what is the difference between scraping and turning since I never have done any wood work myself

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks, Dave! 😊

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

With a gouge used in the normal manner, the tip cuts the wood. Used on it's side, it scrapes the wood. Cutting is better but even so, sometimes you have to scrape to remove small imperfections. 😊

[@kellywilkins8043]

It’s nice to have a quick one once in a while! Turned out very nice! Thank you, Phil!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

😊

[@bobcrabtree6924]

Good seeing you today Phil. Always enjoy the time I spend watching and listening to you. The dish is fantastic and even though Laurel might not be the most exciting grain it is very elegant looking wood. Good job, as usual. Keep on keeping on my friend.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Elegant is a good way to put it, Bob, thanks! 😊

Ah the stubby gouge. Love the bowl. Looks so good and looks like that laural turned so easily. I happen to like the corrected name much better by the way. Well done Phil! A joy to watch

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Thanks Steve! 😊

[@christophersmith9275]

Nice quick turning Phil, thank you. 12 minutes is a great length for my 4 year old's attention span. She loved the cut away to the pile of shavings too!

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Cool! Thanks, Christopher and 4 year old! 😊

Thank You Phil, Thank You Dave from Calmwood Creations...HA "check their woodpile you never know what you're going to find" ya got that right Phil!!!... until next time... TM

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Besides, it's worth it to see the look on their faces when you proudly pull out a piece and call it a winner! 😊

[@auntietara]

Lovely! Just right for a dresser-top hold-all bowl. Art pieces seem to me to be display only, because I wouldn’t want to scratch them, but a beautiful little bowl like this calls out to be used and touched every day. 🤩

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Exactly! 😊

Howdy Phil First thought it was beach wood ... Right at when you started to turn the recess there was a face of a cat ! ... the 2 little knots on the bottom , eyes and the center was the nose . Can't see it to much after finished . Like that Howard stuff .... looks great on your bowl .. keep on turnin'
