Woodturning - This Wood is OVER 400 years old, and from my family's Home!

This is a bowl made from wood from my family's home, it's over 400 years old! My dad has asked me to make a peanut bowl for a long time and I found this piece of wood that fit my historic and design criteria perfectly. it's an offcut from a 400 year old beam from our Stuart era house.
the piece has been sanded to 2000 grit and finished with food safe oil, and wood wax on the outside.

My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.

I love the turn and the filming in the bar to show the bowl being put to a good use. Sounds like a fun place to chill. Can’t wait to see more!

Thanks Sue, the bar is a great place and I'm planning to show more. It already has a lot of my projects in use, but room for more...! 🪵😃👍

Hello Harry do you know what the wood is called? The wood has lovely grain and colouring. I did wonder what marvellous thing you was going to turn with this wonderful piece of wood. The bowl is magnificent and I really liked seeing it being used. You certainly are a masterwoodturner and craftsman. Thankyou for sharing this fantastic video. Amanda xxxx

[@HarrySmithShorts]

Thanks Amanda. It is an offcut from a large floor beam in our house. It is approx 300-400 years old, a pitch pine. It's very hard and smells delicious. What did you think of the pub and the after turn filming? 🪵😃👍 x

OMG theres only a tiny bit left all the rest went to GLOBAL WARMING

[@stuartwise7272]

That seems to be the nature of wood turning or even wood working, in general. There's always a fair amount of waste wood.

[@HarrySmithShorts]

​@@stuartwise7272Hi Stuart, I waste nothing - I hate waste. The offcuts are used in other projects, unless to small then they are consigned to the kindling pile. The shavings are used for composting, mulching and organic fire lighters ... 🪵😃👍

[@HarrySmithShorts]

I hate waste, all put to good use. 😃🪵👍

[@stuartwise7272]

@@HarrySmithShorts That's really good to hear, Harry. I wasn't have a dig at you, just that there are a lot of scraps left when using wood. My grandfather was a cabinet maker and I always remember his workshop being full of sawdust and shavings. He'd bag them up for people who used to burn them on their open fires. Mind you this was in the 50s and 60s.

[@HarrySmithShorts]

@@stuartwise7272 Thanks Stuart. I didn't take it that way. I love wood, I think it is very precious and will always try to use every piece before I resort to burning. I have stores every where@!! 🤔

[@robertocoiante1981]

Si tratta di legno di CASTAGNO ? Ciao Harry amico mio !

[@HarrySmithShorts]

Hi Roberto, no it's a pitch pine. Very old, hard strong, resinous and smells lovely. What did you think of the project 🤔? 😃🪵👍
