Woodturning - A Huge Burl !

Welcome to this weeks woodturning video:
Woodturning - Simply Beautiful
In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a Silver Birch Burl into an exquisite live edge bowl. I feel this video falls into the ASMR and entertainment categories.
If you find these video’s a good source of entertainment, I’d appreciate you like, share and subscribe.
Thanks for watching.

I have no project in mind, or practical need for one...but I bought a lathe because of this channel

[@johnmitchell1614]

I watch this channel Reece, will you buy me a lathe too? Make it a Vicmark, , , only kidding, what make/model did you buy? Best regards. 🙃

[@JiggsysShed]

That is a stunning piece. The live edge really adds to its character.

[@CJ_Carpenter]

That slow zoom while you carved out the middle was hypnotic.

[@merriebadham6701]

That's a beautiful burl bowl! I can see that it takes a lot of practice, skill, knowledge, and imagination, not to mention strong and steady hands. It's a joy to watch.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks M. Glad you enjoyed it. Where are you watching from?

[@merriebadham6701]

I'm in Portage Michigan.

[@m3rrys0ngstr3ss]

Thank you for not over-smoothing it, I like still seeing the character of it!

[@DanKoning777]

If I was a Silver Birch I'd be thinking "now that's what I want to be when I grow up" Another great piece Jack; you never disappoint. *God bless.*

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Hahah cheers buddy.

[@hollyhutson7265]

Absolutely beautiful I am so glad you left the sides like that. The swirls on the bottom would almost make me want to display it upside-down

[@will.scotnativeingreece]

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks Sophie. I do try do keep my hands safe, don’t worry. I think the wood is the star of the show here. Wouldn’t you agree?

[@PGoodmanCOG]

This would sit on my bar, where I would sit and eat Halloween candy out of it while watching the kids play video games. Lovely piece, Jack. Just lovely.

[@nordyfamily]

Stunning, it still kills me to see the inner bowl burl sent to the dust bin. Life's not fair, right?

[@niknoks6387]

It’s lovely Jack, it’s wonderful that something that starts off with a a stress event in a trees life can look so lovely. Hope you had a good week 😊

[@andycropley5486]

Reminds me of mountain apple used to make bowls by a craftsman on saltspring isle, which is an art retreat, not sure if it is anymore. Thanks for the memory. Very nice bowl.

[@Blade1310]

The moment the 'cutting' ends and that first application of 'finish' hits...............wow, just wow! Superb as always Jack 👌

[@Son0565]

Yes beautiful just wow and omg .that colour x

[@stuharrison231]

The finish on this is amazing. Nice one Jack!

[@nivadecastrodefreitas2846]

Olá Jack, falo do Brasil, Rio de Janeiro. Sou nova em seu canal e não me canso de assistir de tão encantada que fico com suas peças, cada uma mais linda do que aboutra, parabéns! Mas essa, é simplesmente maravilhosa de linda!!!! Ficou uma peça rústica lindíssima! Não sou muito de comentários mas que o Senhor Jesus o abençoe e capacite cada vez com com o seu rico talento! Felicidades 🙋‍♀️

[@sistersarann3819]

Oh Jack, it is breath taking. A bowl for a Queen. Thank you for your care and love you showed in the creation :)

[@drferry]

Beautiful, beautiful work! All that hand sanding that you didn't show. I might have used a spray finish alone on something this complex. Difficult to buff with all the natural edges.

[@beverlylumley4150]

OMG magnificent job, congratulations, Canada

[@seed_of_the_woman]

you made it shine! gorgeous.

[@pamelalee1508]

Hi Jack... Ahhh..burls...such a contradiction... The swirls of the grain is amazing..then you bring it to life with turning and top it with the glow...yes..beautiful material and a handsome outcome... Thank you Jack...have an excellent weekend...🌿🌿🌿

Simply gorgeous would be better. It would make a wonderful center piece in the dining room. I'd use it for artisian bread or rolls during family dinners and the like. Another beautiful piece of art. Amazing.

[@sherrieburks4739]

Beautiful!

[@jimputnam7539]

Wow that piece is absolutely gorgeous sir!! First time I watched somebody do the Yorkshire by hand without the lathe turning!! Very impressive.

[@johnoldonekanole602]

Such skill . It looks so fragile . Looks great . Thanks for sharing . Stay safe .

[@planetzebulon21]

Ho-lee-fook! The folks at planetzebulon need to say “well done”.

[@markbrownfield437]

Absolutely stunning. It's always exciting to see what's inside a burl. I love it

[@discodiva8879]

Beautiful 🤩

[@moniquekelsey7856]

Stunning ❤🇦🇺

[@1954JDR]

Absolutely beautiful. You should use a sand-o-flex like Phil Anderson does. It does an excellent job on bark and inclusions.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks James I appreciate your kind words. I don’t like those things at all unfortunately.. I believe Sanding should be controlled and precise process not erratic and aggressive. A piece like this should have a crisp defined edge not a sloppy softened edge. Give it a try next time to do a piece like this and compare a fine cut and effective hand sanding to a piece With a power sanded live edge.. I’m sure you’ll change your mind 😉

[@anamiller5778]

Beautiful bowl. Perfect for holding fall decorations or pumpkins! Enjoy all your videos.

[@ApocolypseChild]

Gorgeous piece! I especially love that glossy finish!

[@bonitagoodwin5086]

Congratulations on your new purchase. The piece is stunning!!

[@amandatallis9875]

Hi Jack what a big burl it's got lots of nice grain and colour. You have made an amazing piece I really love what you make you always surprise me and your items are always cool. Thank you for a great video, take care of yourself can't wait for your next video. Amanda x

[@woodturninghomemade]

Amazing! I like it.

[@randomsammieable]

Ahh, beautiful. The first swipe of oil is always my favourite. Is it because of the way you worked the wood that you sand it by hand compared to other pieces where you let the lathe do the walking?

[@alun7006]

Probably because of all the gaps around the edges - sanding with the lathe running would be hard work, give a poor finish and might damage the piece.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Yes as stated above it can be very dangerous to try to sand this with the lathe running. But if you watch any of my other videos you’ll notice I always sad by hand ( and also with the lathe running) this is because sanding with the grain will always give you better results than Sanding across the grain. 👍🏻

[@ndothan]

Another beautiful piece, my friend. Awesome job!

[@HurricaneRainbowOG]

burl wood and similar must be my favourite kind of wood from an aesthetic viewpoint. it looks into the messiness of life and brings out the beauty from that mess, and makes order from it and brings it to a higher place. i started watching this one after having really bad news (gov't backstabbing, endangering my retention of a roof over my head. i'm in canaduh. if people think canaduh is socialist, they're sorely mistaken). anyway, beside my point. it's so G-D pretty, i love it

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Hi Eric. Sorry to hear about your bad news. Hope you can find at least a little solace in my video’s. Why the name change buddy?

[@jimgill1105]

A stunning piece of wood and great artistic skills!!!

[@nortonknows]

Another job well done Mr. Mack!

[@JackMackWoodturning]
