That's a sweet box you turned out there Jack. What was the scraper you used, it had an unusual tip shape? Best regards. 🙃

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Cheers John. It’s a scraper of my own design. I’m sure others have done the same.. it essentially acts like a drill bit down the centre but then cuts like a negative rake scraper on the side of the tool. Meaning you don’t have to try to cut directly into endgrain and instead cut the side grain from the inside out. It’s a bit unusual but it works a treat. 😊

Beautiful piece of wood, from beginning to end, where did you aquire it?? The bark type is something I've never seen before. Also, what is the purpose of using the shavings to rub on the wood?

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Hi May. I’ve had those Yew logs for that long I can’t quite remember where I acquired them. A friends woodpile most likely. I am acquainted with a lot of local tree surgeons and groundskeepers. The technique is called burnishing. It is used to add a sheen like finish to the wood. 😊👍🏻

[@MsCaptK]

Just out interest, does a wood like yew need any special handling, given that parts of the tree are toxic to humans?

[@JackMackWoodturning]

No. The dust is as dangerous as all other wood ( all wood requires lung protection) and if your working with it when green wash your hands before eating.. most important of all is to not eat the leave and berries and also bark. But unless you plan to eat the shavings your okay just treating it the same as any wood

[@WhenLifeTurns]

Great video. What was the tool you were hollowing with?

[@JackMackWoodturning]

We’ll spotted. That’s a special little grind I put on a square nose scraper to make it hollow endgrain.. Il make a short video about it.

[@judithflow3131]

Such a shame that yew is unsuitable for anything dealing with food. Still is my second favourite wood though.

[@gimsotglobal8060]

You can use food grade epoxy to seal it. 👍

[@JackMackWoodturning]

You can eat off it.. just because yew trees contain taxines doesn’t render the wood poisonous. The toxin is least present in the wood vs other parts of the tree. Yew berries and leaves are a serious issue for dogs and children or I guess uneducated foragers. Once wood is seasoned the toxin is hardly present in the timber. I understand why people say this about yew but having researched the topic in great depth and having worked with yew for 2 decades I know it to be incorrect.. we have a yew fruit bowl at home that’s been in use for over 10 years with no issue. Iv turned green yew all day every day for weeks on end in shorts and a tee shirt being sprayed with sap (tree blood) with no I’ll effects. I used to be very cautious with it as a young woodturner. Caution is always preferable to stupidity. But knowledge and experience is everything 👍🏻

[@judithflow3131]

Thank you both for the replies. I am still wary about it, though I also did learn by now that especially the leaves are poisonous and that the berries are actually edible, provided you remove the seed (and I'm still not gonna try tasting them). Maybe I'll try making a yew bowl sometime. It should be slightly less prone to cracking than plum, which is my favourite wood. I know I don't do myself a favour with my preference in materials, but when they work out, they always exceed my expectations. I'm even considering learning myself to cast epoxy, so I could still use my cracked plum blanks..
