[@Getyupngo2]

So very cool❣️❣️I loved watching the video ♥️

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you!

[@jeffgoodsonwoodworking8627]

That turned out amazing always trust your instincts even when others may not agree with it don't know how many times I really didn't like my work but everyone else loved it well done sir.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you as always, Jeff!

[@paulthompson8613]

Nice one John .Give and thou shall receive

[@NorthwestSawyer]

He’s been a long time viewer. Great guy!

[@clydeschuyler]

I think it turned out nicely. It did bring some darker age look to it. Great work.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you, Clyde!

[@VickiAndersonwoodturning]

Love what you did with angle of the bowl and the finish looks spectacular.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you!

[@Jupiter-wj6sn]

I'm glad that you seem to really enjoy your turning. We do too. The results are great. Keep it up.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you! It’s very satisfying. Any chunk of wood can become something interesting…

[@lyndaowen2154]

looks really good-- I like the uneven top -- it adds a lot of character

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you! It’s definitely not original but certainly different 😉

Beautiful figuring and a loverly bowl congratulations.

Thank you very much!

[@craigsudman4556]

Thanks for the great bowling session, Jason. No exploding pieces of work is always good. Great video thumbs up.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you, Craig! I’m going to use that in a video… bowling!!! Brilliant!😉

Grrreeeeaaaaatttt Bowl Jason, well done 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Thank you!!!

I have never run a lathe before, but I think I would have cut the corners off before I started. Just a suggestion. You made a comment of maybe I will ruin it. You can never ruin it, just change from what you were expecting to a different treasure. Another suggestion. You should make some sort of jig to use with your router for the plate you screw on. That way you get a even surface for the plate. Remember these are suggestions from a lay person. Any way you look at it, it is a great looking piece.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I was worried about cutting too much off with the offset wobble I was putting in it. It really turned pretty easily being a softer wood.

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Great bowl. That old growth pine does hold some smell. The dark monocote worked fine. Well done.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you, Doug!

[@regsparkes6507]

Yep, somebody ought to invent 'smelavision' for all those aromatic woods. I'll bet John will be happy to get this. Thanks for the time to put this video up Jason.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I think people would change the channel on this one!😂😂 it was some strong stuff.

When I seen that block spinning around, it scared me from pa, you must have nerves of steel. beautiful end results what a talent, Jason.................. btim sw pa

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you! I’ve learned patience is key when starting on a bowl. 😉

[@williamellis8993]

Nice bowl, Jason. I think the finish was great. I know you can't unring a bell but apparently you can unturn wood (around 7:00). I also expected you to undrill a hole. Bill

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I’m going to have to make these harder!😂

[@JohnSmith-tv5ep]

Jason, another interesting play on wood turning! There are SO MANY ways to finish that! Its too bad you don't have a chance to try other methods.But this 'turned' out beautiful. That material is so hard to find,... that kind of old growth lumber, (100+years old) thats been milled maybe 100+ years ago to repurpose into something else from our American History.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I definitely need to add to my finish collection.

[@JohnSmith-tv5ep]

@@NorthwestSawyer You said you wanted to have a black type of finish. I was thinking, you might have used a handheld propane torch, charred the bowl while on the lathe,the resin would have been lighter after sanding, then put a finish coat over it.

[@Lorddanielrushton371]

Great job. Love the color.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you!

[@butternuthillfarm1599]

Jason, that was exciting to watch, I was holding my breath that it would not explode like the osage orange. It looks beautiful. When I sent it to you you I never expected any thing in return, I just wanted to see what could be done with it, but I am thrilled you are gifting it to me. Thank you! How about some ancient Eel river Sycamore next? John

[@NorthwestSawyer]

It’s my pleasure, John! I hope you have a spot for it. I’ll turn whatever you send😂

[@ljgault]

Love it!!

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you!!

[@jeffreylord8172]

Jason, there are sanding discs called STERATED /NOFIL they will be blue or white in colour, designed to not clog with resinous timber ,paint or varnish.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Awesome! I’ll definitely be looking for them.

[@walterlamb4756]

As inexperienced as I am in wood turning I still think I would have started with a round piece of stock. However, it came out very well!

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I wouldn’t have been able to get it truly round with the angled mount. At that point I figured it’s just as easy to turn it round.

[@robinjchambers845]

What was the smell? Anyway I like the bowl and the texture…rustic. Your getting better on the lathe

[@NorthwestSawyer]

PINE!!! Really strong PINE😂😂😂

[@williamdodds6104]

Not beating up your Rubio just saying I think Howard's feed and wax would of been perfect for this. But I am Impressed with the Rubio.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I definitely need to get some more finishes in my cabinet 😉

[@williamdodds6104]

@NorthwestSawyer I don't remember if you used any polishing paste or wax but I can say Acks abrasive paste and wax is awesome. Give it a try!

[@NorthwestSawyer]

@@williamdodds6104 I’m very interested in trying some. I almost bought some Yorkshire grit recently but my cart was already at $700😂

[@williamdodds6104]

@@NorthwestSawyer incomes as a kit you get a jar of the sanding paste then a jar of the wax it's good stuff and made here in the states by a fellow woodturner.

[@gregm312]

nice

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Thank you!

[@ronthacker211]

Can't imagine why you wouldn't knock off the corners first?!?

[@NorthwestSawyer]

With the angled mounting, I was afraid of cutting too much off. Not being able to hard wood, it was easy to turn and didn’t take that long.

[@bobuncle6962]

I can't find the bit where you finished the inside of the bowl. What did you use?

[@NorthwestSawyer]

I didn’t use anything on the inside. I like the contrasting color between the inside and out.

[@bobuncle6962]

I guess I didn't miss the finish on the inside. Thanks

[@geraldsimon3268]

I like it to

[@WhiskeyDale]

if you got a pith in the bowl. it will crack
