Woodturning | The Wormiest Firewood!
This bowl will soon be available on our website for purchase, and until it is, check out more of our products here! formanwoodworking.com/
_____________________________________
Hello, friends! This is officially the first project I've completed in our new house/shop. It's taken a while to get the shop back up to working condition, but we're finally done! It's been a long wait, but I am finally back to doing some wood turning! I also apologize for anyone who's left a comment in the past couple months that I haven't responded to yet. I've made it a point to reply to as many comments as I possibly can, and up until now, I've done a pretty good job of it, but the past couple months have been quite hectic! I promise, I will get to them soon!
This was a piece of a firewood I picked up from my parents' house a few months back. The outside looked stunning, and I immediately thought it would possibly make for a really nice live-edge bowl, so that's precisely what I tried with this project. I hadn't actually attempted a live-edge bowl before this project, and to be honest, it was actually much more difficult than I thought it would be after seeing so many people do them here on youtube. I was not fully prepared for how rough a process it was going to be on the turning tool, simply because parts of the bowl never end up getting fully round. That said, I am quite pleased with the final bowl. Although the worminess remained mostly on the surface, there are a lot of cool details and patterns throughout the piece. I can't be sure, but I think the wood might be ash? It does kind of look like ash, and it's decently dense as well. Either way, I sanded the bowl up to 400 grit and gave it a wax finish with Hampshire Sheen, which was also a first time use. It was quite easy to apply, but I gotta say, I do miss that waterlox shine!!
What do you all think? I'd love to hear down below!

I never did end up finding out what trees they came from, and, as someone who still considers themselves to be a novice at this, I had absolutely no idea what they were. Not...

    Great bowl and idea. But how did you end up with 5 wood layers? You only cut 3 rings. Just curious if you used the second piece of wood that you showed at the very beginning. Thanks

    Ecclesiastes 7:3 Sorrow is better than laughter; it may sadden your face, but it sharpens your understanding. Proverbs 14:13 Laughter might hide your sadness. But when the laughter is gone, the sadness remains. If you want to know the Truth believe in Jesus.

    Why are the lathes of the majority of CZcams woodworkers so out of balance? Not only is it visible, but you can hear it with every cut. I have never had a piece wobble or be out of round like that on my lathe.
