Not sure what made me more nervous - the first few spins when you fired the lathe up, or turning blind with the chisel out of sight through a inch-and-a-half hole 😂 outstanding mate - well done 👍🏻

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks 👍

[@theScottexan]

Late night turning with Andy.....very cool and some nice wee bow ties 🎀 🪵

What I really appreciate in your work is the experience, the artistry, the clear mind and the vivid imagination of what will become from that raw piece of wood. Beautiful, thank you for sharing

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you so much

[@marycatherinelebouef-op4hf]

Beautiful work! It is absolutely stunning!

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you so much

[@paintcandan5972]

it looked like a strobe light spinning with all that chatoyance, just incredible

[@alanbregar4983]

That was another great job and now I can see the grian from the outside of the log to the center and it is really beautiful job Andy.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you very much!

[@judithfairchild8620]

Such a beautiful piece of wood!. I don't think I have ever seen Laburnum wood before. The grain is fabulous.

[@lnr12241]

If I lived near one of these wood turners I would do all their sanding and polishing for free lol. I love watching the finished product turn from wood to glass like

[@libradragon934]

Yes, who doesn't love a Laburnum log, especially when it's turned into something so beautiful! This is gorgeous!💖

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks

[@feeberizer]

Laburnum aka Golden Chain. We had a huge one when I was growing up. It was gorgeous in full bloom. I didn't know the grain would be gorgeous as well. Good job!

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks .. Yes its a cool looking grain

[@nariu7times328]

yes I do think I love me a laburnum log...all dressed up too! :D Amazing work hollowing it out (or whatever term is more appropriate.)

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you!

[@kathleenorr9237]

Beautiful grain on it…had a proper wobble on the machine at the start!

[@pflick13]

So simple in design, so complex in execution. Another masterpiece!

Thankyou

Wood in it's beautiful natural glory. ❤️❤️

[@josephatherley86]

That's what you called a masterpiece of work.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks 👍

[@Possumsrock]

I can imagine that your wife has many of your beautiful items all around the house. Once again you made something beautiful out of just an ordinary wood log.

[@youthrevisitedagain]

I wish I could look at a piece of wood and not just see what it is, but also see what it could be.

[@markbeames7852]

Michelangelo, perhaps history's greatest sculptor, understood this concept to his bones. Two of his more famous quotes speak directly to it: Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it. I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.

[@backwoodskings1624]

Buddy, everything seems impossible unless you have the proper tool and a little experience with it. Once you can imagine what you can do with the tool ideas come to you.

[@bourboncowboy7715]

Very impressive.

[@dilboteabaggins]

@@markbeames7852 honestly I think a lot of this is just to start doing stuff to the wood and refine the form as you go. When I'm turning I know a general thing that I'm aiming for, but make design changes as I go to suit the wood. It's always a surprise for me what I end up with.

[@mr.glitch6781]

Damn that is deep

[@daniellejohnson199]

So creative and beautiful! I agree with the poster below regarding the strong and steady hands required.....impressive! I love your small inserts which remind me of butterfly steri-strips healing the "ouchies."

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks

[@FranWhitten]

Love the natural wood. Amazing grain patterns. Thanks for your work.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks

[@wayneeden98]

Wood working woodcrafting is all the journey and creation of the mind

[@segamble1679]

No matter how many live edge turning videos I watch, I can never comprehend when you put it on sideways at the start, how it will turn out in the end. Always a mystery.

[@aethergames3507]

Beautiful! Love the color of the wood and the design!

[@craigb9241]

The bowties are such a classy repair.

[@petefrench4198]

Agree.....but purple????FFS!!!!!! Wrong colour!

[@damienmilas8337]

Mate the grain in that piece is stunning nice work the oil really brings it to light well done 👍🦘🇦🇺

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks 👍

[@rharbarenko]

Bow ties..... now your just showing off! LOVE IT never seen bow ties on lathe work...

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you .. This is a really old one kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3S7gatng7Osg8U

[@kevinmole9982]

This guy is mad with skills in my opinion the best wood turner I ever saw

[@jamesbarbour8400]

Ha ha, "wood turner, saw", I see what you did there 🤣

[@Brix96]

That was great to watch a real craftsman at work i enjoyed every minute.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lyndaowen2154]

The wood grain is absolutely beautiful, but those little Band-Aids on those cracks are just adorable.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thankyou

[@lexxussmooth]

Clean. And very elegant in its simplicity: Beautiful work, Andy. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Many thanks!

[@katcankan7129]

Morning Andy ☕😊 Another Masterpiece 😍💜

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Morning! Thanks 👍

[@jeremyoliver2802]

That's awesome how it turned out when u put it on there at first with the flat part facing u I didn't know how it was gonna turn out if it was gonna bounce around or what was gonna happen but u did a great job and it looks awesome 👌

[@andydefur8827]

I'm always amazed when i see a video like this, that doesn't end up with a hole gouged through to the outside. Whats the magic behind that?

[@spookyblush-speedruns]

Practice.

[@jeremy1350]

Hi Andy. The laburnum has a very pretty grain to it. And it looked like it required a strong but steady hand to carve it. It's beautiful.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks 👍

I thought you were on your way to another earth piece for a minute there, Andy. That Laburnum is quite understated in it's elegance. Love the bowties addition. Great piece! 😊 Phil

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks Phil .. I'm just in the process of making another globe ... PS Bluetti contacted me last week !! I'm going to have to learn how to speak though !!!!!

What a great result with a piece of wood with so much character.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thankyou

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Beautiful hollow form. Love the red bow tie.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

A beautiful piece, both from the design point of view and its natural beauty. Love the contrasting bow ties. A clever way to fix the problem whilst looking like they were part of the design before you even knew about the cracks. Talking about design, do you sketch out (or design "architecturally" to the mm) before you start the process, or do you think "vase!" or whatever it is you come up with, and then let the wood guide you to the actual end shape? Obviously some like the 3D chess board & set would require a lot of planning, but it's more this sort of work that I'm thinking about. You do it so naturally that it seems like you're doing one extreme or the other when it comes to the design. However you do it, you never fail to amaze me with your skill and artistic eye. Bravo, squire, you did it again!

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thankyou .. I decided beforehand to make a hollow form but I never decide on a shape until I'm turning

[@hfbowerndesigns810]

Nicely done Andy. Take care my friend and enjoy the trekking Cheers Harold

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks Harold👍

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Many thanks!

[@andyhutch8262]

You need a clear plastic screen behind you, keep cuttings in one place! I have seen small Laburnum, but never as large as this, you keep us all guessing what its going to be, another excellent work of art.

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thankyou

[@rogeranderson8763]

Truly a beautiful piece! Our laburnum tree is not nearly that large, but I've gotten enough off various prunings to make some nice tool/chisel handles,. It has a bunch of different 'local ' names, around here it is called a Golden Chain Tree. -Veteran '66-68

That is really cool. Love the grain of the wood. 💖💖💖

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

[@drferry]

Brilliant hollowing job! It's a good thing you put that bowtie in there because it looked like that crack kept spreading.

[@doriWyo]

Wonderful grain!

[@66lwmorgan]

How can you not like this. You can tell he knows what he's doing, he still has all his fingers.

[@WoodWizardrybyColin]

Beautiful piece as always.Laburnum has to be one of my favorite woods to turn not had a decent chunk like that sadly only small pieces

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thanks .. Yes its a cool wood I got quite a few pieces from this batch of Laburnum unfortunately I think this is the last piece

[@zoeartrc]

There is a look of Tiger Eye stone as the light hits the pale area. I love how you add a twist of interest to your pieces, they’re never run of the mill 👍

[@AndyPhillipWoodturning]

Thank you!

[@ChrisSmith-yq9pr]

Andy this is stunning! You are incredible and a creative genius!

Never seen a log planed like that before, usually with the grain. Turned out great, love it
