Wood turning - Pine Diagonal Bowl (rescued from the funnel club!)

Hello my friend, Fine Arts; These are the things that the human hand, head and heart work together. I watched a great design. Congratulations. See you. Big greetings.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you so much 😀

@@RDMWoodturning see you

[@anthonymilner1851]

You are very inventive with pine, so many sources say that you can not turn it and you prove them wrong. And it is so readily available thanks!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you so much for the comments. Pine is a bit more expensive than it used to be, but its still great to experiment with. Cheers 👍

[@raydriver7300]

Do you know, I like the concept and the execution. And a nice save too. This is part of the joy of this community- everyone willing to share their ‘happy little accidents’ keep up the good work 🌞

[@RDMWoodturning]

Big thank you

[@SuperBeardall]

I've just started watching your videos and you sir are amazing wat you do with less expensive wood. Thank you for sharing

[@RDMWoodturning]

Glad you like them! Thank you for watching 👍🎄🎅😃

[@rondacker]

Embrace the funnel! Nice save. I have never tried pine in over twenty years at it. I’m inspired to try it. Lovely piece.

[@RDMWoodturning]

You should! Thanks for watching

[@nipulkradmsinatagras8293]

*Those chunks and bits of shredded wood can actually make good firewood.*

[@RDMWoodturning]

Yup, they are bone dry and are great for starting a fire. Thanks for watching 👍

[@bonitagoodwin5086]

Beautiful bowl. Beautiful wood.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you very much!

[@billrobinson8939]

Great save. Turned a funnel back into a bowl.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Many thanks

[@1954JDR]

Wow, beautiful bowl; beautiful grain. The green spot in the center is a nice feature.

[@RDMWoodturning]

I think so too!

[@carolsnyder9134]

Very pretty bowl and I love the dot in the middle!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you. Yes, the dot ‘almost’ looks planned 😂👍

[@karengilchrist9774]

Good save. Very nice bowl.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Glad you like it. Thanks for watching 👍

[@davidnickell9381]

My mentor in woodworking, long before I began turning, once told me that the sign of a good woodworker is being able to fix your mistakes so they look like you meant to do it. I'd say you passed that test!

[@RDMWoodturning]

That is awesome! Thank you very much for the positive comment 😎👍

[@mancingsumatra8886]

#David N .....hi bro.....how are you.... 👋👋👋👋

[@MrsGump]

I really really like it! The grain of the wood just makes it look more interesting. PS well done saving it lol

Great save, looks good 👍

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@milesnoell]

Nice save! Your choice to embrace the hole works well and speaks to a way of thinking that I like a lot. Sort of a "finding the zen of the woodworker" kind of thing.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you. I don’t like anything going to waste.

[@ryanivester5042]

Excellent job. Your "fix" worked great. I might even like it better with the the "fix".

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks 👍

[@stephendonathan6782]

Nice work 👏! Great save on the funnel. It happens to us all at some time. Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!

Thank you very much!😀👍

[@IgnoptiCraftWorks]

Great looking bowl, the 'oops' moment turned into a 'happy accident' which really suits the overall design. I like the idea of using laminate for the inserts, very effective and provides great contrast against the pine - thanks for sharing 👍👍

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you very much for watching 😎👍

[@albertoperrone3359]

[@bryanholden6487]

Good recovery! Been there; made that hole. LOL Well turned!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Hahahahaa! Thanks for watching

[@oldmanwoodcraft]

It is a very nice idea and excited Nicely.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you very much. There is so much you can do with pine. Cheers 👍

[@billgiffin987]

Maybe cut the black spot to the size of the hole with a larger backing the size of the spigot for stability glue the dark color to the block so it will be flush on the inside. good luck on the next one.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Good idea. Thanks for watching 👍😊

Great project RDM. Surprised you found any CLS timber - thought most places had sold out! All the best. Ray

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks 👍 Yeah, I keep dropping into Wickes and crossing my fingers! 😂👍

[@RayWhitbyCreations]

@@RDMWoodturning Ah, you go for the bendy types of wood then! I've had to throw so much of that stuff away, but being banana shaped it always comes back to hit me in the head! :-)

Amazing..... 👍👍👍👍

[@RDMWoodturning]

I heard it getting thin. Lol. Been there, done that, got the collection!

[@gregdagg9305]

Good save, nice looking project.. Projects do not need to be made from exotic woods to be great practical additions to any household..

[@RDMWoodturning]

100% agree. Thank you very much for watching 👍

[@mancingsumatra8886]

#Greg Dagg ...... 👋👋👋👋 Agree....

[@harrykeel8557]

Great save. I've made a few funnels myself, and I probably have a few more to go. But it happens to all of us. I always maze people when I show what I can do with a piece of 2 x 6.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you. I am quite pleased with the rescue too. Cheers 👍

[@funmitholz2095]

I have already watched a few of your videos and I think your work is very beautiful. What strikes me when I look at your tools? You grind dry and run the cutters too hot. This leads to the cutting edges quickly becoming blunt.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Totally agree. I need to invest in a better sharpening set up. Plus I do get carried away and forget to cool the end with water. Thank you 😊

[@demetrius3d]

You made a small vessel sink. Waterproof it and add a drain.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Hadn’t thought of that. Thanks 😊

[@charlesball8872]

I like it, I like it, I like it!!! I’ve often wondered why turners lament so over funnel club bowls! We can learn from my hero artist Bob Ross, who often had “happy accidents” and viewed them as opportunities to test one’s creativity ! Your solution not only looks good, but it looks PLANNED! Non turners will think exactly that unless told otherwise! I haven’t had that opportunity yet, but I’m actually looking forward to it! Lol! Life is what we make it- if we keep a positive attitude……!!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you so much for the positive comments, and indeed the positive outlook! I hope that your future project turn out well. Cheers 😀❤👍

[@petert3355]

If you had of backed the tulipwood veneer in the tenon with a pine backing to fill the tenon would have been a decent solution as well. Still, a very nice result mate.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks for the idea. I'm just pleased that it could be saved 😀 Thanks for watching

[@DZNTZ]

Great result! Thank you for sharing this, I’m learning a lot. I’m brand new to turning, so it’s ALL new to me - and I have a question: At about 11:35 in the vid, how are you securing the bowl to the lathe? (At the start, it looks like you’ve got it screwed in to the chuck, but I can’t tell how you’re doing it towards the end after you plugged the hole) Thanks for the help!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks for watching. Because I used 2 pieces of 1mm veneer to cover the hole, I was still able to gently use the chuck again, as the recess was 2mm deep, so 'just' gave me enough of a hold to smooth everything over. Cheers😎👍

[@marcenariahobby7pallet]

Muito top parabéns ficou show 🇧🇷👏🤝👍👊🇧🇷💯

[@RDMWoodturning]

Que bom que você gostou. Obrigado 👍

[@DonLuc23]

Another possibility would to make a pedestal for it, turning the top of the pedestal just so it would fit in the whole making it more of a candy dish...just a thought

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks. Yes that did cross my mind. Hopefully I’ll have to wait a long time to have to fix another funnel!😂😎

[@robertocoiante1981]

Ciao ho avuto il piacere di vedere altri filmati, anche lavorare un legno povero da le sue soddisfazioni. Cosa sono quelle slice che metti tra i legni? grazie

[@RDMWoodturning]

Le fette sono impiallacciate in legno di tulipano, quindi macchiate di colore. Grazie per la visione 😃

[@joaomoreira8524]

Parabéns, belíssimo trabalho!!!!

[@RDMWoodturning]

Muito obrigado por assistir 👍

[@Scotty1701C]

How do you get the colored veneeer?

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks. I bought them from eBay about 7 months ago. Not seen them again since.

[@Scotty1701C]

Very good video. What is the size of the wood?

[@RDMWoodturning]

I think it was 90mm x 45mm x 280mm, so roughly 4x2x11 inches. Thanks

[@claujean1]

What is material use as laminate green and it is possible have other colours

[@RDMWoodturning]

Hi. It's tulipwood (poplar) veneer. I have used black, yellow and red in some of my other videos. I bought it in small 1ft sheets from eBay a while ago. Thanks for watching.

[@santiagomarquespaiva1044]

Muy buena idea, sería mucho pedir un subtítulo para los que no manejamos ingles

[@RDMWoodturning]

Gracias por ver. Buscaré subtítulos en el futuro.

[@lucianosalt2396]

Great recovery and innovative design, I'm amazed by your ability to use poor quality timber to create beautiful pieces

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thank you very much!

[@blackcrow777]

Maybe should have used a plug of pine an try an matched the grain as best you could ????? Just a idea or used opoxy resin and a nice color ???

[@RDMWoodturning]

I nearly went for a pine plug, but tried to experiment a little! Thank for watching

[@blackcrow777]

Still a very nice piece I like it very much

[@jpDice76]

Great job, you shouldve faced the grain the opposites on each side.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Good idea! Might try that next time

[@chayacuevascohen2219]

This was a beautiful project, very nicely done. One question: are construction 2x4’s food safe? Has the wood been treated with any chemicals? I’m asking because I would love to make this a little larger as a salad bowl.

[@RDMWoodturning]

I hope so, as I've been using them for food! I make sure that they are kiln dried, but not treated. Thanks

[@beneditoalvesdasilva]

Parabéns bela peça. abrsço

[@RDMWoodturning]

Você é muito gentil. Obrigado

[@DennisDolan-fl3mw]

what is the "funnel club"?

[@RDMWoodturning]

When you gouge too much out on the inside of a bowl and put a hole in the bottom, we tend to joke and call it a funnel rather than a bowl. I’ve luckily only made one funnel over the last 4 years!

[@DennisDolan-fl3mw]

@@RDMWoodturning I recently joined.

[@sparkydoodles4440]

Nice recovery ❤️‍🩹 it actually gave the bowl a little more character 😎 👍

[@RDMWoodturning]

Thanks. I’m just happy that it could be saved! 😎👍

[@benrumler7129]

Thought only I did that

[@RDMWoodturning]

Hahahaha... There are plenty of members to the funnel club! Thanks for watching 👍

[@chezlerq4478]

Good save, although you could have turned it thinner and made a lamp shade. I have done what you did. ;-) FYI: Tulip wood is not a poplar, even though it is called Tulip Poplar. It is in the same family as Magnolia. The poplar is related to the Willow. Even though the wood is similar; the leaves, flowers, and seeds are very different. No biggie,...Everyone calls it a Tulip Poplar.

[@RDMWoodturning]

Cool, thanks, I didn't know that. Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@darkconspiracy559]

I guess it wood be cooler to let the top edge remain unturned and have patterned edges

[@RDMWoodturning]

Yeah, the thought did cross my mind, if it had been a harder wood then maybe, but the pine was already tearing. Thanks for watching 👍
