Great Job Double D you showed that wood off great. Side note the "A" in Mallee is sounded the same as the "A" in Daniel 😁

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks for the clarification, Sid!

What an amazing piece of wood. That looks incredible. 😎 Looked like getting those cuts started out on the wing was giving you a run for your money. Great job Double-D!

I don't know if I could have said it better! Thank you for the feedback!

[@jimbowman1614]

bloody good job pronounced mallee ,Mal Lee

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you for the feedback and the pronunciation!

[@maurieknight5120]

It's pronounced Mallee as in Sally and valley. It's one of Australia's better known timbers that comes from the south west. Mix the Mallee burl with Jarrah in a jewelry box and see the magic.

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks for the clarification! Unfortunately it's pretty expensive for me to get over here, but I'll keep that in mind!

[@WoodturningWithJohnMarro]

Awesome piece! I am with you on finishes. I prefer a satin/matte finish as well. How is the new lathe? Will you be doing a review beyond your initial build video?

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, John! I absolutely will be talking about it as I go, and try and incorporate my thoughts after a while. Still getting used to it!

[@davidwinch7997]

Nice job on the Mallee Burl. It would be like turning concrete!! I am lucky living in Australia and have Mallee Red Burl available quite cheaply. I am a pen turner and use Mallee Red and Mallee Brown in a heap of my pens. I had to resort to Carbide Tips a lot of the time as, like you, I was resharpening my gouge (a good quality Sorby) quite often. BTW - there is no "R" in Mallee. Just sayin'. Take care and thanks for sharing

[@TournageDubois]

Thank you, David! I am a little jealous, but that's the nice thing about the internet, is the possibility of getting all sorts of things from all over! I always like to try new things, and I was amazed by how beautiful was!

[@Ken.norwood2]

Love the burl. Where you get it from

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Ken! I got it from ExoticWoodZone.com.

[@williamellis8993]

Really beautiful, Daniel. How well does it sit? Bill

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Bill! It sits perfect!!!

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Isn’t Red Mallee burl just the greatest? I do personally prefer it with a gloss finish, but that is just my opinion. Beautiful either way. Great job with the turning.

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Doug! I might try another with gloss!

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

@@TournageDubois I think it brings out the color and movement just a bit more. I can send pics if you’d like to see the one I did.

[@gregjohnson8486]

Wow!! That's a beautiful piece. I've read that Malee was like turning a brick and you confirmed it. As a beginner, I have a question though - why didn't you power sand the wings with the 2" discs instead of hand sanding? Was that a preference or do you get better results hand sanding? Thanks for sharing this video! 👍🏾

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks, Greg! And welcome to the wood turning family! I did do SOME power sanding on the wings, but it can cause some issues where the corner is between the wing and the bowl. So I power sanded as much as I could, then hand sanded up close (if that makes sense).

[@gregjohnson8486]

@@TournageDubois Ahhh, OK. I just wondered when I didn't see you power sand. Yes, it makes perfect sense. Thanks for your explanation!

[@TournageDubois]

No worries! Happy to help out!

[@jimbowman1614]

mallee is great, have youtried liqued amber if not let me know iwill see if i can get some to send

[@TournageDubois]

I have not even heard of it (under that name). I Googled it and know of Sweetgum, but have never seen any other than pictures.

Was there any doubt, Huw? Bill

[@WoodenItBeNice]

@@williamellis8993 ,🤣🤣🤣😁😁🏆🏆

[@christophersmith108]

Beautiful piece, but one correction: mallee is pronounced with a short “a”, so it rhymes with “alley”

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks for the clarification, and the feedback!

[@neilspencer1072]

As an Ausi this is not a butt but the base root

[@TournageDubois]

Good to know, and thanks for the info! Do the burls usually only grow on the roots?

[@neilspencer1072]

@@TournageDubois yes as used to use them for firewood

[@TournageDubois]

Good to know!

[@PBUCKY1969]

You did a great job with this one - it's truly stunning wood and so so hard on the tools! I turned this larger piece, had to turn it outboard due to it's size - can't wait to get my hands on some more. Great to see you! kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5KmpX2egq51Y9k

[@TournageDubois]

Thanks! I was nervous, being my first piece and all! Got another piece in process, but it will be another video!

[@PBUCKY1969]

@@TournageDubois I look forward to watching! 👍

[@SidsRepurposing]

PS you thought that was hard you need to try some old Redgum or Yellow Box LOL

[@TournageDubois]

I would love to some day.... maybe if I ever get to Australia!!!!!

[@elizabethshannon24]

Don't like the stuff on the outside.

[@TournageDubois]

The spikey parts? Some people do, some don't. I like to keep them as natural as I can. But thank you for the feedback!
