Woodturning a Cherry Salad Bowl

[@namotenashi]

Awesome! A nice wooden salad bowl! I was watching the video while thinking about what salad would be good!

[@DeereGuy211]

Like it. Natural beauty wins every time. Thanks for sharing.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@MadStacks007]

You dont do projects, you create art. As always another beautiful piece of art. I so enjoy watching you work, you make it look so effortless. Semper Fi

[@RoseMaryBowen]

Beautiful bowl. Any imperfection adds uniqueness. Great projects sent in by your subscribers. Take care. God bless.

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks so much!

[@kobiekaasjager4822]

Rod it is an awesome and stunningly beautiful piece that you made. I am so glad you are healed and working again. To God be the glory and I pray His blessings over you. Semper Fi dear Rod.

[@rickchapman3051]

Keep listening to Phil. He is a master, just like you. Really enjoyed your showcasing of other's work. You are an amazing person. Thank you. Even though you need to paint that lathe a different color. Just brings back memories of diper changes from years gone by.

[@phionella7]

One of the greatest things about this channel is the positivity... Rod you make amazing pieces of art and you enjoy showing the beautiful pieces others create. It's a joy to watch AND to read the comments!!!

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much! I'm overwhelmed by the positive comments, such wonderful and supportive people!

[@AlFurtado]

Beautiful bowl my friend but even better than the bowl is the fact you are so humble and really have a way that you communicate with the audience through your videos. That is one of the reasons your channel is the best. Take care my friend

[@jenford7078]

I think it's lovely and we all learn something from Phil on a regular basis.

[@codykirkland9002]

Great bowl! Glad to see even the more experienced turners still have some things they can't fix.

[@tatkinsful]

Another awesome piece !! I learn a lot by watching you. Thanks for taking time out of your life to make this videos for folks like me just starting !!! Still praying for you & yours that health be abundant to you all.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you, Tony, I appreciate that!

[@brucerowan2183]

The wisdom you impart to the crowd is great.

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Great job, Rod! That Cherry is finally feeling useful! Beautiful grain and color and a really nice finish to top it off. Fun video, thanks! Phil

Great looking bowl, nice character! Thanks for sharing. Beach, NC

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks so much!

[@tamwolf20]

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. As a disabled vet embarking on the second half of my life, I have taken up learning gem cutting. Although we are creating in different mediums I find your videos relaxing and inspiring. Thank you for doing what you do.1

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks for your service, Tam! Very interesting... there's a really good channel I enjoy called Black Opal Direct. Very entertaining and relaxing as well, as he shapes beautiful opals... Thank you!

[@tamwolf20]

@@RHumphrey yes! I know of Justin Thomas from Black Opal Direct. He is actually in Tucson at the moment for the major gem faire. I watch his channel and each video he posts. He is funny and very knowledgeable. I have even purchased black opal from him. Thank you for your service as well friend. I look forward to your next video.

[@tamwolf20]

@Vox Deus yes I have. 😊 people are very creative and talented. I have been fortunate to be taken under the wing of a gentleman who has been cutting and cabbing gems for 60yrs. At 81 he still cuts gems every day. I have been very blessed humbled by his generosity in teaching me. I love watching youtube videos on anything gem related and amazing wood turning videos. ❤

[@percyvandermerwe185]

Vox Deus I am also one of R Humphry,s followers and subscribers. He is a great source of inspiration to many, me too. I have also started with some wood-turning on my Cholchester Student 1800 steel lathe. Am busy adapting it to work with the correct chisels etc. Cannot afford a proper Woodturner,s lathe. I believe to use what I have , never losing sight of what I aspire to. With people like R Humphry my spirit is called to the “spirit” in which he does his work with love and respect towards wood and service and people. May you be able to get your lathe as soon as possible and enjoy a great hobby and channel.

[@paulhofmann5163]

I watch Phil also and you're both right about the cracks. Work with nature, not against it. Great bowl.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@marioshadjikyriacou3381]

Three words!!! (1)YOU (2)ARE (3)AMAZING!!!

[@matthewphillips9455]

First off, i love the piece, its beautiful. I have been watching your videos for quite some time now and enjoy seeing how precise you turn your art. You have a true gift my friend, keep turning!

[@ellynmartin720]

Super mesmerizing when you slow the video down to real time. I watch the time lapse and it looks so quick and easy to make these works of art. It's an eye opening reality check to watch just how long it really takes to get perfection.

[@AndysCornishCreations]

Beautiful cherry bowl that will get darker (and prettier) with age. I love turning cherry; it's my favorite woodworking variety. I have a supply drying in my utility shed.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you, Paul! I enjoy cherry as well, though this chunk was a bit stubborn...

[@steveledbetter5613]

So nice to see a turning that wasn’t full of blue or purple resin. Just wood. Nice.

[@Paleoman52]

Great job! Imperfections are what give a piece that handmade look, not totally machined. I like it, It is the human touch!

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks very much! 😊

[@dwjr5129]

Very nice piece. Simple and classy. I enjoyed watching you turn it.

[@Ronalcock1]

Beautiful bowl...the cherry is stunning!

[@Ricksp65]

I have a small leave that I bought probably 30 years ago I don’t even remember how much I paid for it but I managed to hold onto it all these years and get it out every once in a while and make some pens or small bowls and the enjoyment is always right there and I’ve always had plans to buy a large leave when I retire so I have more time can you see were Woodturning could be very addictive I really do enjoy it and I enjoy your videos great job.

[@leecook7672]

Beautiful bowl, the little chips are beauty marks. Thank you for so many inspiring ideas.
