Woodturning - A Very Risky Bowl (Yew and Resin)

welcome to this weeks woodturning video.
Woodturning - A Very Risky Bowl (Yew and Resin)
In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a large piece of air dried yew into a natural edge winged bowl.
when woodturning a piece like i find it important to nibble away at it until I see what shape the wood wants to be, this is what is so enjoyable about woodturning. big log to bowl (little bowl) but i find removing the wood in layers allows me to find the best possible shape.

I’m so glad you left the live edge! The end result is art museum-worthy! The designs that come out in the wood never cease to amaze me! Spectacular work!

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks P. Much appreciated. Is yew your favourite wood?

[@ralphgraler4223]

Absolutly legendary!!! Oh my goodness!!! And the first one who realised that tropical woods and gold belongs to another! The cracks are fuiled up with liquid gold... a hidden secret in the wood!!! Abnormus!!! The highend of spectacular woodturning!!! I love this bowl!!! 😍👍👍🎩🇩🇪

I feel another name for this art piece: An immortal wild flower. Thanks for your restless creativeness day after day. You're among true artists. May days coming to you be all inspiring days.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Another great name. Keep them coming 😊👍🏻

[@saigonngale]

@@JackMackWoodturning Great! Thanks. May you and your family be happy. And, may I say 'Hi' with your new little member.

The resin really matches the wood so well! Amazing you can manage that. I really wasn't expecting that when you started mixing.

[@traceyevans215]

Reminds me of “Kintsugi” fixing broken things with gold to make them more precious. It is a stunning piece. I knew blue and orange made brown but the gold added that 💥💥💥💥💥💥

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks Tracey, when I changed the resin to gold I was hoping it would come out fully gold, kintsugi was exactly what was on my mind at that stage, unfortunately the small amount of blue made a huge inpact on the finished resin and it came out kind of deep purple with gold, however in hindsight the resin isn’t at all garish and is a much more natural colour than I could have planed. Thank you for following along, I appreciate you watching. 👍🏻

[@FilosophicalPharmer]

Renaissance painters used purple for Mary and Jesus (because the color was so hard to make). You were Renaissance painter level and didn’t even know it!!
