Woodturning - The Spider Pine Log!

Welcome to Ian Mac Woodturning! In this weeks turning video I used a piece of rescued Pine, it had a really cool shape so I decided to make a nice vessel out of it.
Sorry for not posting a video last week but my father passed away on Saturday so we obviously didn't finish the video.
If you are enjoying our videos then please do comment and like the video as it helps us massively, we really appreciate the support.

[@GaryGlass-DriftwoodTurner]

Beautifully done Ian. I think pine is very under rated, you find some stunning grain patterns in it as you've just demonstrated. Condolences on the loss of your father.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Cheers Gary! Hope you’re doing well mate

Hi Ian, Sorry to hear of your loss, my sincere condolences. Beautiful piece Ian and a very clever way of hollowing and then disguising the method of hollowing. Great work mate. Take care Ian. Cheers, Huw

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Cheers Huw! Yeah I thought I’d like to get it quite thin and didn’t have the time to try and do it in one piece, this was a good alternative and kept it looking nice. Hope you’re well my friend.

[@riaterhaar]

Geweldig wat mooi ! En wat een goed idee om er stuk af te zagen en zo de hele kruik uitgehold te krijgen !

Heel erg bedankt mijn vriend, het leek een beetje makkelijker om het open te snijden om de klus te klaren haha.

So sorry to hear about your dad. What did you end up doing with the branches you cut at the beginning?

Thank you for your kind words, to be honest I have piles of sticks and bits and pieces of wood, I do use some but I could probably do with a log burner for a lot of them

[@mikeknoke3594]

I’m not a wood turner but I sure do enjoy watching your videos. The Color and form of this piece is fantastic. I’m curious as to how dry the timber is before you turn it. Some of the pieces look covered in green moss so they can’t be too dry. Once turned how do you keep them from not splitting and cracking?

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Hey Mike! Thanks for your comment mate, truthfully some pieces from videos can crack and warp but certain types of wood seem to hold their shape perfectly like this pine & Leylandii. We’re looking at building/buying a wood kiln shortly so it shouldn’t be an issue in the future.

[@barryerdman6285]

Really nice work. Like the method you used to hollow it out. I would have liked to see the piece transform in the lathe in the stopped footage as the branches disappeared. I am surprised that the pine smoothed out so well being so knotty. Great work.

[@louisjutras1]

I have some questions for you: why do you use dipoxy? Is it because you like it better as a finish to your piece, or does help against warping and cracking when the wood dries? These might be absolutely silly questions, keep in mind I am an absolute noob at this !

[@IanMacWoodturning]

I used Dipoxy just for a clear finish on this one! It definitely can be useful for stiffing up wood though and helping prevent cracking.

Was my fathers (now passed) hobby. He spent days in his workshop. It was sad seeing him slip slowly into dementia. I bought him a ton of wood. Beautiful wood. And he just couldn't turn anymore. He forgot how. Was very sad to be sure. Hes in a better place now turning and enjoying himself Im sure. Nice job you did here sir. Dad would have loved to have watched and picked up tips.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Ahh sorry to hear that Rob, dementia is a hard thing for a family to deal with. We’ve had family members with it too, terrible disease. You have your memories of you father & that’s what matters, hope you’re doing okay mate.
