Wood Turning Wet Cherry A Bowl Inside A Bowl

I turn a bowl in a bowl for a present. Stating with a very wet piece of Cherry that was uprooted because of heavy snow.
Using my drying box made it very quick to dry and get turned.
I used Zinsser Seal Coat and Shellac for the finish
I then polished it off the lathe using Acks Sanding Paste.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Carl! I have done two others and they were lots of fun as well. Take care, Gary

[@rickhomer934]

Gary, another interesting project. If you boil the rough turned green bowls in water for about 1 hour per inch of thickness, it will prevent splitting and it greatly reduces the distortion that happens when the wood dries. The boiling softens the lignum in the wood and relives the internal stress in the wood. Let the wood cool in the water overnight or you will get a lot of surface cracks from the wood cooling too fast. This is similar to kiln drying. Do NOT use your wife’s good pots for doing this….lol. For small projects you can use one of those old black canning pots. I use a half 45 gallon drum with a propane burner outside. This process is wife approved. I boil fruit tree wood and some of the other local wood I get that is prone to splitting when it dries.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Rick and thanks for the tips on boiling. I have heard about but never explained this well. I have a few stainless pots. One is 8 gallon and the other 10 gallon. I used them for making home brew and I am sure they would work fine for that. So after it has cooled down how do you go about drying it so you can do the second turn on it? Take care, Gary

[@joallawestervelt6918]

That’s a awesome bowl in a bowl papa. I have received my laguna revo 1836 lathe I’m very happy with it . Already made large size vases with out of cherry wood. It’s in drying process to do final turning.still having trouble with the inside work with my bowls . I ride the bevel get catches here and there time and practice I’ll get better hopefully. I thank you and other wood turners here on utube for your teaching videos you share .until next video turn safe be safe be safe 👍

Thank you David and great to hear you now have your 1836. I am sure you will get lots of enjoyment out of it. Lots of practice and you will get comfortable with a bowl gouge. Doing shallower bowls with nice slopping walls will help a lot to get the hang of it. Best of luck, Gary

But now, I think I will go for the bowl in a bowl, because you make it look simple as well, and I think I can do it. Thank you again for a great lesson.

Aww, Gary, what a great video and background story. Lovely results. I learned a good deal from your work. Most of all, I thought I needed a buffing ball for my drill. I never considered a shop towel to buff inside, as such. I'll give that a try on a current project whose interior I'm not quite satisfied with. Have a great weekend, sir. :)

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Jay I appreciate your comments. I really do not want to get into the buffing wheel system and can get good results by getting the finish on as perfect as I can then using the Ack's products. I just finished a pair of bowls today that I did all the finish off the lathe and will buff them out the same way. As we have been saying for the last 10 years: Everyday is Saturday except for Sunday! Take care, Gary
