Nice work, Kim! I have the same problem with using CA glue - best solution I have is to spot sand the surface where the glue was applied.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi Rick, Thank you for watching and for the comment 😀 I have done the same with spot sanding, and it works to a degree but special in punkey wood it is har to remove completely, but I got some god tip to with sanding sealer before using the CA I am gonna try that next time.. i have 8 more rough turned blanks from this birch tree with spaltning, so there will be plenty of opportunity to try it out 😀 Have a great day Rick, and stay safe 😀😀 ..

An incredible art piece that will, I am sure, make it for generations to come. I have been experimenting with wet sanding Danish Oil into cracks to stop the cracks and so far been successful. The fill created by the oil is a little darker, but it has always come out looking more like a natural blemish in the wood. Thanks again for an amazing share. Stay safe and keep warm as your winter comes there in the Northern hemisphere.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

I have to try that with the Danish Oil .. Thank you very much for the tip.. and thank you very much for the nice comment and for watching my videos.. I really appreciate it .. I hope you have an amazing day and stay safe 😀😀😀😀

Using an accelerator with CA can reduce the coloring effect as well, it hardens before penetrating and filling the pores of the wood as much. But as was stated before, sealed wood pores will stop the CA from getting in there. Very nice bowl, spalted birch is great.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi William, thank you for the tip with the accelerator. I have to try that too.. Thank you very much for watching.. have a great day and stay safe 😀

[@TheTinyWorkshop]

Cool bowi ..outstanding grain...seal with either shellac or sanding sealer ...stay safe...press on 😎

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Thank you for watching and for the comment i appreciate it .. I will use your tip next time it come op thanks .. stay safe and have a great day 😀

[@stevecalgary2395]

I have luck with ca colouring by sealing the surface first. Ca still sticks. I use shellac.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi Stive, Thank you for watching, and ty for the tip i will 100 % try that next time I Need CA on a smal crack.. Stay safe and have a great day 😀

[@Ian_Kaos]

Same here. A little sanding sealer just around the crack stops it soaking into the surrounding wood.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

@Ian Kaos I will 100 % try that next time i need to close a little crack with ca .. Thank you very much.. and also for watching my video.. stay safe and have a great day ..

[@neil_m135]

Looks like the same hollowing tool I bought recently, also using 12mm carbide. Mine might be a bit shorter though. Haven't worked much with it yet but it cuts very well.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

It is a really good tool, i made the handel my self and the handel is around 50 cm as I remember .. when you use it remember to take the tool rest a little more back than normal else the tool will flip on you, dont go past the flat part.. i wont tell you how I know LOL, thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀

[@emgiwoodworks]

@@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP Yup, been there, done that. 😀

[@SAr-Woodturning]

Lovely spalting in the wood. To begin with, I did not like the shape of the rim, but it grows on you. Well done. I assume the wood was wet or semi dry since you needed to coat it to prevent spitting.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi Sigurdur, Yes it was a little wet like 18 % moisture 😀 and yes the spalting in this Birch is amazing, i can alomst not waite tu turn the rest of the blanks from this log 😀 Thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀

[@davewarrell6598]

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi Dave, thank you for the tip, i dont know why I did not think about that 🙄 Thank you very much for watching and for the comment i really appreciate it .. Stay safe and have a great day 😀😀

[@mikewickham1767]

Lovely bowl. I have the same lathe, where did you get the S shape tool rest?

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

Hi Mike, it is a great lathe :-) I just added 190 kg to it and it made it a hole different lathe .. The tool rest is a Robert Sorby Modular tool rest system www.robert-sorby.co.uk/woodturning/woodturning-accessories/modular-tool-rest-system/l766-4-toolrests Thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day 😀😀

WOODTURNING BY BRANDSTRUP I think I’m going to add a shelf to the lower part of the legs to see if I can stable it a bit more. Thanks for the link. Hopefully you’ll see my channel on KZbin soon.

[@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP]

@@mikewickham1767 Looking forward to see you channel when you make it,, one other thing i did was to remove the rubber feet, i found them to course most of the vibration i had on the lathe .. beside off balanced blanks ofc :-) if you wont to see a picture how i did it send me a mail .. my mail is in the channel about tab :-)
