Woodturning - The AMAZING Red Cedar Bowl

In this woodturning video I turn a piece of Red Cedar into a shallow live-edge bowl.
I get a lot of inspiration from ‪@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop‬ for his amazing work.

Great colors this Daniel! Thank you for the shout out!!

[@TournageDubois]

You are so welcome, John!

[@goodhopepond]

13:29 awesome - loved this! And I always appreciate when turners report the lathe speed and tool descriptions along the way.

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you for the kind words! I definitely like to try and show techniques and details like that as it helps newer woodturners have an idea on what is going on.

[@WoodenItBeNice]

Stunning Daniel. Enough said. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw PS I'm going to write to your Congress asking them to outlaw Red Cedar in the US and that in future ALL pieces of Red Cedar MUST be ship to a small village in South Wales UK,

[@TournageDubois]

LOL, Huw! I will see that your complaint reaches my congress person for sure. Thanks for the feedback!

[@arnoldpluim8094]

[@williamellis8993]

Nice little bowl, Daniel. Very pretty wood. I'm glad the bark hung on. I think Phil was the one that sent me to your channel initially. Bill

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Bill! I enjoy the live edge, so always glad when I can save the bark!

[@Aaah-Mazn-Creations]

I use a lot of cedar but this is a beautiful small piece. Well done my friend, i will have to turn a small one like it. It will not turn out as nice as yours, but i will try.

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you for the feedback! I'm sure you'll make a beautiful bowl, and if you're on Social media, please share and let me know!

[@karendubois4648]

Love the red cedar! Mom

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Mom! It is pretty vibrant!

[@Audie1234]

❤that is so pretty ❤

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks you, Audrey! The contrast was quite amazing!

[@crackerjack3359]

with all that sanding sealer, how does the thin CA, or the wax finish actually penetrate the wood?

[@TournageDubois]

In the case, I'm not wanting it to penetrative the wood, just to seal any gaps between the bark and the wood directly. It still works really well. Thanks for watching and the comment!

[@gsmscrazycanuck9814]

I was hoping when I subscribed that you would hit 3000 subs :). Maybe just a couple more.

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you for subscribing and watching! Ill get there sometime! I have a few projects in the works, so we will see!

[@sovietholdoutxd7783]

Obviously you use a recess/mortise here, but I've been wondering are tenons (in general) safer for softer wood like cedar? I havent seen any concrete answers, but I would think since a tenon is compressing the wood inwards any breaks/fly-offs would be reduced compared to a mortise. Or are the risks about equal with the amount of material in/around the jaws playing a bigger role? I've got some red cedar of my own and I'd like to try my hand with mortises if possible

[@TournageDubois]

I usually prefer a tenon, as I do think they are stronger. I ALWAYS use a tenon on endgrain, but once in a while use a mortise on side grain, depending on circumstances. Short story long, ai probably wouldn't do a mortise for cedar again.

[@dicktillotson1431]

I usually use tenons also on softer woods, but I've twisted tenons off on cedar more than once when getting a catch!

[@TournageDubois]

I have had the same thing happen as well. Cedar is a beautiful wood, but since it's a softer wood it's kind of hit and miss.

[@sovietholdoutxd7783]

@dicktillotson1431 I just had that happen to me! Gonna either use a glue block and a faceplate or just screw the faceplate directly into the bowl so I can finish it. After that, I think I'm done with Cedar because it's way too brittle, not to mention the health risks from the dust

[@dicktillotson1431]

I think a glue block may be the answer! I haven't ever tried that, but I've watched a channel here on KZbin (can't remember whose channel off the top of my head), that uses glue blocks almost exclusively and he swears by them.

[@timplumey-fl5xn]

You may want to check out Mayuko's channel, I get a lot of my inspiration from him. He is great at segmented and open segmented bowls. Most of what he produces are Masterpieces.

[@TournageDubois]

I will definitely check it out! Thanks for the referral, and the feedback!

[@mlhood9791]

For sale?

[@TournageDubois]

It has already sold, but I appreciate that!

[@lyndaowen2154]

red cedar is just a beautiful wood -- works up so pretty. ----- Papa1947 also does great segmented projects & also M.A.W.

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you, Lynda! Red Cedar does finish quite well! They certainly do good work as well! I have a lot to learn about segmenting, amd am excited to give it a try!

[@WoodenItBeNice]
