While turning around a burned tree stump, I was shocked by what I found inside

[@MosesOnAcid]

What was the point of using burnt wood if you just remove all trace of it? Looked good with the burnt patches before you ground them out.

[@cliffboulton8763]

@MosesOnAcid I agree, especially in the large gap. Sorry NDT but, to me at least. your circular ground out bits looked totally UNnatural. Would have looked much nicer left Black. Having said that, if you want to send it over to the UK, I'll pay the cost. LOL

[@andreavandekleut6379]

Indeed. He should have use epoxy and just hollowed out the barrel form

[@oldrogue4247]

Quite right, M.O.A. The original was much more interesting. It could have been made level in several different orientations as a table base, or left alone simply as an interesting object, indoors or out. “Less is more,” even during in reduction of an object. There is a reason art & craft aren’t the same.

[@sarahm9723]

The burn made it artistic

[@garycallahan9307]

After he carved out most of the burned area the piece lost all of it's character. I would have used a steel brush of some kind to eliminate some of the charred wood, but he left it looking like insects had eaten much of the wood.

[@dallasquinby2209]

I thought it looked really gorgeous before you took all the burnt wood of of it. Because on phone the non burnt part of the wood looked kinda yellow on my phone screen an the burnt wood with black w😂a With the black was gorgeous

[@rebelbecky276]

I liked the burnt look as well.

[@younkm1]

I love watching a Craftsman at work. It always amazes me what you see in a blob of burnt wood and make such a beautiful piece of art. 😀

[@MendocinoButterfly]

You destroyed the beauty of the wood when you gouged out the burnt areas. You could have just eased the edges of the burnt areas a bit to create smoother lines. Also the ‘design’ of your gouging was very poor. I’m sorry to be so mean, I don’t usually leave negative comments. You need to study art and design before you ruin any more material. Especially when you were brave enough to turn that stump, and managed a decently shaped vase-like object.

[@bulldog236us]

Pretty much what I was going to say. Now I don't have to.

[@Katan-i7i]

Okay, I loved this piece of wood... Past tense. You sanded off that beautiful black color.. yes, I know it was burnt wood, but it was SUCH a beautiful contrast to the blond wood, wasnt there any way to just lightly sand the black color down and left it?? Or maybe used a clear resin to make it shine??

[@LarryMatthews-f8d]

It's a beautiful work of art; wood salvaged from a fire turned into a flower pot/Urn styled beautiful piece of art that could fetch 100s or even 1000s of dollars. Thank you for sharing this video.

Very nice. But I think it would have looked better if you left all the black burnt insides alone & sprayed it w/your golden color. All the indentation marks from the little hand drill didn't do it justice.

I'm not sure what's up with all the burnt wood lovers, but this piece turned out more interesting, unique, and beautiful than if the wood had been perfect.

The finished piece looks good. I would have been fine with the black-burn in those hollows but this way looks good too. However, I kept waiting for the live electric cord or some other metal/drastic object to be uncovered ... I did not see anything that would have shocked me inside this piece of wood.

With my woodworking, I don't use any new wood. All reclaimed, salvage, and sawmill scrap. I don't take out any flaws or imperfections in the wood, I do my best to bring them out and accent them. I would have left the black from the burn, just use a brush to remove any loose char or dust. Shellac would have brought all the colors out.

I thought you were going to fill in the blank spaces with a cool colored resin, then finish off the turning for a smooth surface, bored out inside like an urn. I could see how there would be a see-thru section from the inside in one spot. Do you plan on doing more with this piece, a part 2 maybe?

While most viewers are flaming what was done to this piece, i happen to like it Sure things could have been done differently but the woodworker envisioned a different end result, so it's artist interpretation.
