- It's always fun to turn a new, to me, species of wood and this Sumac is no exception. Inside is some beautiful color and grain but outside is a feature I consider really special. The bark is also very nice. Finished in shellac.
There are also some new sanders shown in this video and they are now available for you if you feel they can help you. I'm am not sponsored and receive nothing for this, I just want you to know about them in case they may help you with your woodturning. www.TuffyMarginez.com

To all the readers of these comments, I wish to propose a toast to Phil Anderson, the man whose bark is always better than his bite. If you wish to join me in this toast it should be done with prune juice, served in a bowl with a knot hole, worm holes or missing bark inclusion in the lower half of the bowl. So ladies and gentlemen drink fast. Phil, you're the man. Keep up the great work.
Haha, thanks, Pete! 😊
Lord have mercy am a beginner at wood turning but my lord you are one of the BEST I have seen on you tube. My hat is off to you sir. I’m am learning so much from your videos
Glad to know this, Brandon! I do like to turn a little bit different than some others. Just something to consider as you begin your own journey into turning. Enjoy whatever you do! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I am a welder millwright by trade so I can’t put much time into it as I would like to but I get a lot of compliments on what I have done but to me it’s never good enough I guess it’s because I k where all the imperfections are. I am definitely my own worst critic. I guess my biggest obstacles are my finishes. Do you have any videos in particular that I could watch specifically to finishes that you would recommend.? Any and all advice is welcome. Hope you have a good even
Mr. Phil
I freaking love this bowl. Especially that big ol' hole. And every other single aspect which makes it unique. I could picture this on my coffee table in a place of honor.
Thank you, Kathleen! My daughter scooped it right up! 😃
I’d like to echo someone said it’s like you’re dad or uncle showing you how, not only do I love your turning I like you’re commentary Phil that’s a skill on its own to captivate and ordinance there’s not many videos I can watch full term but yours gets me hooked thanks
Thank you for this, Jeff! 😊
The Hole Bowl. A stunning piece indeed. Thanks for sharing you art work with us.🌿 👍👍👍
Thank you, Rob! 😊 Cheers!
Oh, my gosh, there’s an elephant inside with a long trunk, an eye, and an open mouth. How fun!
It is FUN! 😊
I sure enjoy how you allow the piece to evolve. Also your sense of timing using acceleration enhances the video.
Thank you very much, Kevin! 😃
Phil, You have a great eye for turning something what I used to consider wood for the fire pit. I really like how you guide us through your turning process. You do such a great job explaining how you see and do the turnings. Thank you and God bless you.🙂
Thank you so much, Connie! 😊
Yes
The broken branch adds a lot. Almost looks like hand bones or alien bones . Another fine job Sir
Glad you like it, thank you! 😊
That's really cool. I'm glad you left that branch, it does make the piece.
Thank you, Heather! 😊
And once again Phil, you took a piece of wood that most people would see as firewood, threw it on your lathe and ended up with an absolutely beautiful bowl! My hat is off to you sir! Be safe and stay healthy my friend.
Soon there will be no firewood, David. Another extinct species. LOL! Thank you!
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Only because you turned it all Phil! LOL
This piece has a lot to say. Everywhere you look there's something to admire. Again you did a wonderful job of helping it come alive. Thanks for sharing. Take care. 😊
Thank you so much, Mary! 😊
I bought those sanders, they are life savers. They are real good with the deeper bowls and vases that nothing else fits in. Thanks to you and Tuffy for them. E.T. with a gas mask! I do love the strange wood that you get to turn, the sumac I'm familiar with here in Portland are kind of short and skinny.
Thank you, Brad!😀
Doesn't get any more interesting than a piece like that. I scored 2 sumac trees last week from the burn pile on my sister's property. Rootballs and all except for branches. Wood has a gold tone. Still green but sealed and stored. When I bought my first lathe 38 years ago I used to scrounge branches from state parks and sumac was one of the first pieces I turned. Didn't really make anything just happy to be turning. Everything became a candle holder. Always recalled the gold toned wood.
Ah, yes, I remember the candle holder years, Matthew. We practice, we grow. Thank you for watching! 😊
The bowl came out great. So much to see. I love the branch feature.
😊
I just caught you fought cancer like me, I started watching you because and through mine. Thank you for being there for me. Funny ha, you there for me, me there for you. I’m excellent hope you are too.
Haha, glad we could get through it all together! 😊
Yes, it is an interesting piece! The void doesn't detract at all from the shape of it. Nice one!
😊
I went back in time and saw this piece before you turned it. I know it would be nice. Very unique but beautiful bowl!! Those crotches with branches are my favorite to turn. They are a rough ride to the end, but the results is amazing. Awesome piece Phil...Thank you
😊
Love it Phil great looking bowl
😊
Another superb piece and turn Phil.
Cheers
Mike
Hope all is well with you, Mike! Take good care and thank you, my friend! 😊
Howdy Phil
what a beautiful piece , so much is going on..... Type of peace every time you look at it will see something different
that finish you put on it really makes it look so nice
I too like the way that Branch came out gives it more to look at see different things , first thing came into my mind , probably cuz I'm hungry right now , is spaghetti ...LOL
I can see a cow's skeleton head on the bottom
beautiful piece Phil
keep on turnin'
Yep, a lot of pieces have hidden figures, Bruce, but this one might be the champ. Thank you, now go eat!
Absolutely Beautiful. I just love wood.
Thank you very much! 😊
I don't know how you do but you never deliver common results! Great. Thanks.
Wow, thank you, Yves!
It's so cool as you said. The inside looks like a smile to me.
It does! 😊
I thought it was going to turn out terrible, but, I was wrong...beautiful piece!
Glad you like it, Bud, thank you! 😊
I love the way you work with the character of a piece of wood. You see the beauty in the imperfections
Thank you so much, Lili! 😊
Another exclusive bowl. I love all yours videos and voice.
Thanks
Glad you like them! Thank you for taking your time to watch and comment, Zevl! 😊
Cool turn Phil. It came out great. Thanks, V
Glad you like it, thank you!
Hi Phil. Once again you have reached deep inside a piece of firewood and turned out a beautiful work of art. No sweeteners, MSG, or colorants of any kind. LOL Especially no resins to fill voids. I don't see much point in using a nice but small piece of burl then add 10 gallons of resin and turn away all but a bare glimpse of the burl leaving a nicely turned chunk of colorful resin. When you turn a piece I can see the natural imperfections and see how you found a face or an ear or even a stogie. LOL. I look forward to seeing more of your magical works of art. Also, thanks for the lessons. Bill Riley
Thank you very much, Bill! 😊
What kind of a jerk would give Phil a thumbs down on this beautiful piece of art.
Haha. Thank you, Bill! The truth is, I seldom even look at stuff like that. I was just recently surprised at the number of subscribers. I'm just doing this for fun and to share with my valued subscribers. I can't please everyone. 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I appreciate the work. This is an interesting piece. I'd be scared of a chunk of wood coming loose.
The grain is amazing and you enhanced it perfectly
😊
I turned some wet sumac last year. Came out lovely but stank and the amount of sticky sap that came out of it was outrageous!
Good work as always Phil!
Oh no! Sounds like a mess! Thank you, David!
Another gorgeous piece.
Thanks Phil
Thanks for watching, Stan! 😊
I can set and watch you over and over.
I'm glad, thank you, Michael! 😊
Didn't use to like the love edge thing . But the more of your work I see , the more I like it. Keep up the great work.
I appreciate that, Oliver! It's not what most people think of when they think of work coming from a lathe. For me, it's just about the only way I think of turnings. I do agree, it takes a little getting used to and I appreciate that you stuck with me long enough to see it, too! 😊
Just a quick comment to let you know how much I (and my kids) enjoy your videos. Personally, I find them relaxing to watch and I'm always interested to see the finished piece. I hope you're well, best wishes from across the pond in rainy Manchester, UK.
Yesterday was beautiful, raining here today, too, Andrew! 😊
I love the void in the bowl. Beautiful
Me too! Thank you, Diane! 😊
Another Phil fix. And another beauty. This inspired me to make one similar in shape. Can’t seem to get your finish though.
Hoping you’re doing ok Phil. Thinking of you and wishing you well. Sending healing thoughts. Xx
Thank you very much, Mandy, much appreciated! 😊
Hello Phil, I have watched your videos for a long time. I really like what you do. I gave away both my wood lathes a while back because I was tired of spindle turning. You have made me want to get another lathe.
I don't have a lot of room so I am looking for one with a shorter bed and a wider swing. As far as I am, concerned you have the best turning videos on CZcams.
You and I are about the same age, I turn 72 late last year. I was very sorry to learn about your spouse's passing away. Hang in there. I need you to get me started & keep me going.
I live in eastern Kansas. We have some interesting wood. A lot of sycamore, red & white oak, eastern red bud & Bois D'Arc (also known Osage Orange & Hedge), mulberry, maple, ash & various fruit wood.
Don B.
Howdy, Don! I'm happy you are considering getting back into turning and trying some bowls. When I was 69 I posed the question "am I too old to buy a new lathe?" The response was overwhelmingly, "go for it!" I'm so glad I did! My turning and my viewers are what get me out of bed in the morning. You just have to have a hobby to keep busy and keep the mind working, I think. Sounds like you have a great selection of potential turning stock. Go for it! Merry and Happy to you and yours, Don! 😊
I'm so glad you ended up liking that hole, as I thought it was the best feature. Well, at least a close second to that cool formation on the bottom.
😊
120% perfect and unique, absolutely gorgeous❤️👍🤩🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
My daughter grabbed this one right up, Maud! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I don’t blame her and it’s still in the family, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder 💕💕💕
Very nice bowl Mr. Phil
Thank you so much, Donald!
By golly, you did it again Phil! Great job!
Wow, thanks, Michael! 😊
A diamond from a sows ear!
😊
A lot of work but worth it. The bottom of the inside looks like an open claim shell. The grain and colors are lovely.
😊
Amazing piece following Mother Nature's mind. Greatly enjoy seeing you tackle jobs, others would have given up on. Merry Christmas and stay healthy.
Thank you very much, Mitch! Merry Christmas!
Beautiful. I love it all,particularly the bottom.
Yay! Thank you! 😊
darn this would have been a Wonderful birthday present but you were 3 days to late . Plus l didn't have my computer till a year after. lol it is beautiful. as most of your pieces are. What am l saying they are all worthy of being on display.. Thank you Phil.
😊
It's both robust and delicate, sturdy and slender. Fantastic. Thank you to Dan for sending the wood and to you for creating the bowl and sharing. See you soon.
She must be a lady. Just can't decide what she looks like! LOL! I'm glad you can see the beauty in her, I'm sure she's smiling. Thank you!
This is 1 of my top favorites out of a long list of favorites. I agree with you Phil that branch is just stunning. Every time you finish a piece and are showing it and describing how it feels. I want so badly to put my hand through my phone and feel it. They all look like they feel so smooth and so buttery. 🤗
Yet again another beautiful piece Phil 👍
Oh, buttery. Yes! That is a good way to describe a lot of the finished pieces, Alice. I'm glad you can see/imagine that. I'm so glad you like this piece, thank you very much! 😊
Looks like ET. It turned out absolutely fantastic. I love it.
Carsten
Indeed, Carsten, thank you! 😊
More brightness to an otherwise dreary Scottish day. Thanks Phil for another superb piece.
Ah, but that dreariness (we have it here, too) is what leads to those green Scottish hillsides. I'm glad I could bring just a bit of sunshine into your day, Kevin, thank you!
I really like how you talk through your thinking. You seem like a really nice guy. I hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas.
Thank you so much, Scotty! You and yours have a great Christmas as well! 😊
Who could possibly put a thumbs down on this piece ! It must be a mistake or jealous as heck! Quite innovative and a beautiful conversation piece. Phil I am so proud of you and you should as well.
I never even see that stuff, Sylvie, unless I go looking for it. I do know I can't please everyone, I'm just happy that I CAN please some and I'm very happy one of them is you! Thank you! 😊
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
Sure enough, Jane! 😊
looks awesome!!! I really like that!
Thank you, Lynda! My daughter scooped it right up! 😊
Super nice job Phil!!!!!
I appreciate that, Emmett! 😊
Beautiful turning and nice presentation Phil.
Thank you, Ahsan! 😊
Never heard of the wood before, but looks great Phil, thanks for sharing. Stay Safe. Jules, Droitwich, England
There are many varieties, Jules. You probably have something similar, just called by a different name. Thanks for stopping by today, I appreciate your time!
Absolutely beautiful Phil - as usual
Thank you, Barry! 😊
This is one of my favorites Phil.
I'm glad, thank you!
Wow, I love it. All the crazy shapes and movements of the wood.
Thank you very much, Jean! 😊
You truly brought out the best this piece of sumac had to offer, Phil. Just stunning. Thanks!
Wow, thanks, Greg! 😊
Lovely work Phil
I appreciate that, Robert!
The inside looked like a Van Gogh painting! Its a cool piece! I got lucky yesterday and scored a 3 foot long section of a plum tree! It's only 5-6" around but it looks like it will be pretty colorful. See you in the next one Phil
Cool, Plum is a great wood to turn, so much color! Enjoy! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop ❤️
What a beautiful piece of wood Phil. And a terrific job of capturing all those natural features in it.
The branch is by far the star of this one. I love how it wraps around. In one view it looked like it was trying to peak around so the camera could see it. I could almost hear it saying...Hey Look At Me!
I have turned a few pieces of Sumac but not being crotch pieces look nothing like this one.
Plus there are different types I guess. The Sumac plant is some type of poison ivy. Not the trees though so your safe.
Oh those sanders look great!
Great job my friend,
Gary
Thank you, Gary! It's hard to go wrong when you have wood like this to deal with. That branch was a lucky happenstance for me. And, yes, it is saying Look At Me! Have a great day, my friend! I'll be checking out your newest video as soon as I finish reading these comments.
Phil
Beautiful. Thanks for the beauty.
Thanks for watching, Lyle!
All thumbs up, another beautiful piece as always 😀
I appreciate that, Tommy, thank you!
Phil, this is a gorgeous bowl. I love the outside with all it's character. This bowl is a beauty! Many thanks for sharing! ❤🙃
I shared this to my machinist hubby😉. I love it and with No disrespect at all....your comment made me sing the old Sesame street song...There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza...🤣
You're great and I love the piece!👍😁💕
Ahhh, now I understand, thank you! I'm way to old for the Sesame Street reference, I was thinking the Ricky Nelson version of the song, My Bucket's Got a Hole in it but you are probably too young for that! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Ya I don't know the song you're referring to but here is the Sesame street one. It's hilarious 🤣 czcams.com/video/zYY6Q4nRTS4/video.html
Amazing job Phil. Lots of nature.
Thank you, L W! 😊
Your are the master of the bowl I am in awe every time I watch you turn, you have inspired me to try some of those way out there art bowl. WHAT AN EYE YOU HAVE.
Ron
Wow, thank you, Ron! If you can get a good hold on a piece, I firmly believe you can turn it. Best of luck! 😊
Absolutely stunning. Love it. 💜💜💜💜
So glad, thank you, J'Lyssa!
Phil... Great work as always! You're right, the "hole" only enhances the bowl. I really like the way you use the whole piece, bark included for the finished effect. It makes all your work look like what it is....part of a tree. Most people seem to go out of their way to get rid of all the parts that make up the tree, & have sharp, pristine edges. THERE ARE NO STRAIGHT LINES IN NATURE!! You use that to enhance your creations! Well done, Sir - keep 'em coming!!
PS - Re: Tuffy Marginez - my guess is the dog's name was "TUFFY" & his family name is "MARGINEZ".
I'm so glad you understand my approach to woodturning, Phil! My regular viewers get it, new viewers wonder what the heck I'm doing! LOL! Thank you! 😃
Absolutely love this one! Thanks for all your videos. 😁
You are so welcome, Margaret, thank you for watching! 😊
As always, beautiful Great job at keeping the natural aspects of the piece!! Keep it up!
Thank you, Reuben! Will do! 😊
Unique and a piece of Art.
😊
You do amazing work. I have watched many of your videos and I am awe struck by the beauty of the turned pieces. On this piece I thought the hole looked like a handle on the side of the bowl.
Thank you so much for spending some time with me and for your comment, much appreciated, Jeannie! 😊
Wow, the inside of this bowl looks like a heart too. Love your patience in finding the inner beauty of a strange chunk of nature.!!
Thank you very much, Lulu! 😊
Just love this bowl hole and all
Cool, thanks, Christine! 😊
Very Beautiful Piece Phil! Looks just like ET the one way ya turned it all kinds of neat stuff in that one with some Awesome bark!
Wow, thanks, Kimsey! I appreciate your time! 😊
Another fantastic natural Bowl fill these have to be my favorite and they are fun to do
Yes they are, Gary! We'll get together yet, buddy! 😊
That's another cool bowl in the "book"
Thank you, Dave! 😄
I love the branch and am very glad you preserved it. The whole bowl is so nicely turned and looks different from so many angles. I really like it, Phil!
Thank you so much, Dianna! I agree, what it looks like depends on how you hold it. Unusual but fun!
Awesome Larry
😊
I have no words for this piece Phil. You did such a great job. I love that you freely admitted at the outset that you had no idea what it would be. You just carried on and let the weird and wonderful beauty of the piece emerge. It became the piece that all along was there inside to be revealed. You performed a kind of magic here Phil, a transformation. Fascinating to watch and to learn from. Thank you.
Thank you very much! 😊
Beautiful...Beautiful!
Thank you, Barry! Cheers! 😊
Phil if the bowls start talking to you be very afraid.... lol..... nice piece
Oh, man, they talk to me all the time, Keith! LOL!
Love this one Phil this is my Turning Jam. I only trun FOG.
Love your channel! Keep on Turning mentor of mine
Thank you, Chad! 😊
I think I've seen all your videos to date and this is probably my favorite. You are an artist!
I appreciate your comment so much, Patricio, thank you! 😋
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop i would like so much to set up a small shop to do work like yours but don't even know how to get started! Any ideas??
@@patolahman I guess the easiest way is to find someone that has a shop and work with them. Learn what you like to do, see what they have and what you like and start accumulating. Good luck!
Hey Phil, Absolutely beautiful bowl there! I use Zinser shellac also but I use Minwax sanding sealer (cant find Zinser sealer locally). With Minwax I dont have an issue with brush strokes. Not sure why. But it does bubble on me so I have to blot with a rag to get rid of the bubbles in spots. I guess it is 6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other. LOL Oh almost forgot to mention this but when I finish something with sealer and shellac after I remove the tenon I finish the bottom with Howard's Feed-N-Wax. On one piece I accidentally got some feed-n-wax on the shellaced side of the bowl and it brought out the shine even more so now after finishing with shellac I put one light coat of Feed-n-wax over the entire bowl. I was amazed to find that happy accident. :) Yall have a wonderful day.
😊
Not a pretty piece of wood to start but now a beautiful piece. Enjoy your videos amazing how the wood comes out.
Glad you like them, Virginia, thank you so much!! 😊
Fabulous job yet again Phil. The inside view reminded me of the 'Scream'. Sometime you'll have to put Mrs A on so she can tell us the secrets of her husband's success. Ehmm . . I'm assuming there's a Mrs A. Must be all the times you've mentioned dinner. Nice, irregular piece that tells a story.
Yes, I see the "Scream" in there, too, Ray. I'm glad you like this piece, thank you for letting me know! 😊
Has usual your work is gob smackinly good , inside reminds me of a Picasso painting 👍
😊
Very unusual piece but it turned out beautiful.
Thank you very much, Donald!
Thanks again, Phil, a lousy week for me, has been brought to a perfect close by watching you play in harmony with nature to produce another invaluable art piece. You and all your family members stay safe and keep warm over that side of the globe.
Sorry for the lousy week, David. I'm glad I could offer a diversion, thank you for watching! 😊
Lovely piece, so much happening there.
😊
Very Interesting 🤔 Beautiful ❤️ wood!
😃
I like it. An attractive and sturdy piece. Nice work as always.
😊
Very unusual piece Phil, turned out quite nice. What I'm seeing from the back is "ET", remember him....nice work!!
Thank you, Gary! Yes, I see him, too, but he made an appearance in a bowl just a couple weeks ago so I didn't want to spoil him with too much attention. LOL!
