Live Oak Burl is not something to take for granted. I have no idea if this is going to work initially, and it got very DICEY while turning. Check this out.

Kent, just want to mention that you are my go-to source on youtube. There is a lot of noise out there; your signal comes lowd and clear. You are a teacher, not just a turner. I forward your videos to friends who are learning the dark arts of the lathe all the time. Many many thanks. And yes, I subscribe!
Thank you kindly, Clay! I'm glad to be able to help. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
It's interesting to see you turning a burl. I usually watch Phil Anderson, he has ruined me for turning uniform, round bowls. The more difficult it is, the better I like turning it. You definitely did justice to this piece 👌.
I’ve just started turning and would like to thank you for producing such clear instructive videos,I feel I’ve learned so much in a very short space of time .
Kevin, glad to hear! Happy to help. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
I am fortunate to have a source of burls from the Wheatbelt of Western Australia and they are all incredibly hard wood.
Davy, sounds fantastic. Enjoy…and keep on sharpening. ;) All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl I was back at the Men's Shed today and turned up a very nice little bowl. With what I learned from you I was shocked at how quickly it went. Lots of sharpening of course but that didn't take terribly long. I even had angel hair shavings!
Wonderful so glad you didn't fill it with plastic. Just beautiful
Thank you Santa. ;) Happy Turning!
What a fantastic result Kent, it is amazing what is waiting for us inside an ugly exterior! Interesting that the boiled linseed oil from over here is different to yours in the US....we also call them 'burrs' over here rather than 'burls' with you guys. Hopefully we all get great results, thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Sounds great Mike. Yeah, we do have funny ways of saying the same thing. ;) Happy Turning!
Just in time too! I have just gained access to a forest full of them. I’m super excited! Thanks again Ken
Wonderful! Wow, that should be amazing. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
I love watching your videos of bowl turning, as I also have a CZcams Channel with lots of mistakes as my channel is about 3 months, since I started. I am learning from you as well as other channels. Thanks for Your Help. Happy New Year!
Thank you for writing and sharing! All the best to you, Len and Happy Turning! Have fun and Happy Turning! Kent
inspirational Kent
Absolutely beautiful Kent. What a pleasure to watch a master bowl turner at work. Great commentary explaining clearly and exactly what you are doing. Many many thanks for the inspirational videos and look forward to many more great turnings. All the very best. Andy L
Thanks for watching Andy. Please subscribe, and Happy Turning!
Merry Christmas! Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing
Same to you, Lou! Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Regarding holding the outside of the bowl to stabilize the rim when turning. I need two hands on the tool! I use this method of keeping the center of mass until I get significantly down the side of the bowl. It works well for me also.
Sounds like a good technique, Eileen. Thank you for writing and sharing! Happy Turning!
An excellent turn Kent and a superb piece at the end. A very enjoyable and informative video.
Many thanks, Mike! Thanks for checking it out. Keep up your great videos too. Happy Turning!
Turned out well.
Thank you, Mark! Happy Turning!
What a beautiful piece! I love turning pieces of Burl and Crotch wood! Like yours, you never know what you’re going to find inside! I’m also of the belief that once you start turning a piece that you think will end up as a bowl of X” diameter, the wood usually speaks to you and decides for you! Great job! I love your videos and I learn something from every one even though I’ve been turning for over 20+ years! Thanks for sharing and maybe I’ll tackle that burl I’ve been sitting on today! :)
Thank you, Michael! Much appreciated! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I think that if the woodworm can stand the turning, it is probably because they don't have inner ears, which ensure balance.
The bowl is gorgeous !
Something like that. Thank you, Thomas! Happy Turning!
Bold. Bravo.
Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Really nice! I thought for sure it was going to explode at some point. Kudos for keeping it together.
You and me both! Thank you, JR. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Beautiful result. You are such a great teacher Kent Thank you for all the videos so far and all the best for 2024 Love from the UK
Thanks so much, Paul! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Again....another absolutely Stunning piece
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice looking bowl, Kent. You have a very practiced, steady hand to complete a turning like this. I was just given a freshly cut Cherry Burl and some nice lengths from the Cherry tree about 14" in diameter and 4-5 feet long.
Thanks and wow, those sound like amazing pieces. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Wow, that really turned out neat. Beautiful grain and colors!
Thank you, Tim. Happy Turning!
Thanks 👍
Welcome 👍
The part of the human body that makes us dizzy doesn't exist in bugs, that's the simplest answer as to how they're able to cope with spinning around and not getting dizzy. In addition, insects and other similar things don't have the same organs that we do. Basically, bugs are built to withstand a lot of abuse, especially wood boring ones. They have to be able to survive changing weather, sudden impacts if a three falls or gets invaded by a predator, and all manner of other things. Beetles in particular tend to be pretty hearty, as are their larva.
Good info CP, thanks for sharing, Happy Turning!
Everything turned out amazing! I had several bowls with a complex structure, bark inclusions and other features. It is always interesting to work with such material. The bowls made from it are very exclusive.
That is awesome! Yes, there definitely are unique. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Great finish at the end. Merry Christmas to all. This would be a nice present for someone.
Thank you, Jeff. Happy Turning!
beautiful natural bowl. I think you meant bark "inclusion" :)
Thanks, yes. Happy Turning!
Outstanding work! I feed the grubs I find in wood to my duck, he loves them.
Cool very pretty bowel a great piece of art really enjoyed watching You turn this piece Blessings to you and yours Merry Christmas and have a Very Blessed day 2024
Thank you! You too!
You truly amaze me with your craftsmanship love watching your videos they inspire me mine don’t always work out but I always keep trying. Have a very blessed day.
Nice work Kent! I turned an oak burl recently and you're right it takes you an adventure lol.
LOL, yup. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
What a beautiful piece, I'm glad it held together for you. It's interesting that it still had wildlife in it when you started ... that's a nice added story around it's creation! Merry Christmas to the family!
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas to you too. Happy Turning!
Beautiful burl bowl. I also love to turn burls. I have been spreading your channel to new turners. I was given a red oak burl. It is so big it will not fit on my American Beauty. I am perplexed and don’t want to cut it down and take the chance of ruining it.
Awesome! Thank you for spreading the word, Kevin! If the size is close, I would trim it down first. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
You handled the live worms with greater equanimity than I would (me: BLECHHHHH!!!!)
LOL. ;) just nature.
❤fabulous ❤
Thank you, Audie! Happy Turning!
Superb piece Kent, I hope you and your family have a great Christmas.
You too, Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Really lovely work and great result. Wonderful timber.
Thank you, Robert Happy Turning! Kent
Merry Christmas, good luck in Your jobs and You Tube activities in New Year ! Greetings from Latvia.
Thank you kindly, Janis! Have a great new year too. Happy Turning!
Turned out real nice. Looks like LiveOak to me. Grain patterns are a giveaway. nice job.
Kent that turned out beautifully thanks for sharing that with us. And you and your family have a Merry Christmas
Happy holidays to you too Fitz! Happy Turning!
Absolutely beautiful bowl Kent.
Spectacular bowl and another excellent video
Thank you, Josh! Cheers!
Great burl bowl Kent. Thanks for sharing.
Kent - that bowl turned out amazing. I would say you have a more adventuresome passion than I do. I would have given this burl to someone else to turn. But then you have turned many hundreds of bowls more than I have, your experienced😉.
Great teaching video. I always enjoy your videos. Happy Holidays.
Lowell
Thank you, Lowell. You can turn one of these. You can do it. Happy Turning!
Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us. I enjoy all your work and how you take care to teach as you turn. As a new turner this year I have learned so much from your videos. Thanks and happy NewYear 🎉
Thank you so much, Paul! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Wormholes? Carpenter bees.
By the way, do you ever use a curved toolrest?
One more thing - I wonder if thinned hot hide glue would run down into cracks & voids. Hot hide glue is very strong and does not interfere with finishes unlike PVA and epoxy. It's also more resistant to water than many people think, because both heat and water are needed to release it. The application temperature is about 145F.
Thank you, Bob. Good info. I'll have to check it out. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Kent that's awesome. I have a similar burl of oak to turn. Can't wait to see how it looks. I enjoy your videos and learning from you.
Wow beautiful Kent, thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it Sean! Happy Turning!
Great looking bowl Kent!
Thank you, Ron! Much appreciated. Happy Turning!
It became a work of art 👏👏
Thank you kindly! Happy Turning!
Nice one Ken!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Good looking bowl.
Thank you, Brad! Happy Turning!
That is an amazing piece 😮 .
Thank you, Jack!
You summed it up well Kent...WOW! That was a real roll of the dice. I thought it would explode any minute...and would of if it was me turning it! Turning that foot I was almost holding my breath.
A work of art. Just gorgeous. What was your lathe speed and did it ever vary? Thanks for this great vid Kent and Happy Holidays!
Thank you kindly, Pinepuppy. Glad you like it. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Fantastic I got some wood like that 👍👍👍👍
Thanks George. Sounds like time to get turning. ;) Happy Turning!
Great job and Merry Christmas 🎄
Thanks! You too, Peter! Happy Turning!
Kent, back when i was teaching woodcarving I'd talk about using boiled linseed oil. Invariably, there'd be someone wanting to know about how to boil it.
Yup, shrug. I want to be woodturning, not making potions. ;) Thanks and Happy Turning!
I was turning a oak burl today and I ran into 2 nails deep in the piece. One when I was slicing on my band saw and again when turning. I didn't detect with a magnet but should have tried a metal detector. Good point for others. There were voids so I had to adjust my turning. Glad you mentioned the issue of soft wood or voids when cutting. It can be sooooo dangerous.
Thank you for writing and sharing, Jeff! Yes, nails are frustrating. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Love the bowl Kent but I couldn't handle the grub! Ew! Jane ❤
I've pulled grubs - or worse, half grubs - out of carving and turning wood a few times.
Ech. Ew. Also yuck!
Jane, thanks. Yes, it's not always pretty. ;) Happy Turning!
Find the spider @2:38
I am not a scientist, but can't help to make a comparison of worms to politicians. When there's no brain both can withstand a hole lot of turmoil :)
LOL… something like that.
Oh my Lord. A burl, alright. It turned out beautifully my friend. Your talented hands an minds view of it was great. Im on my very first bowl. Its cherry, probably overstepped my ability on this 1. My advice is buy a cheap set of tools to first start work. Glad l did, but l did learn some things. Thanks to your videos lm off an running.
Thank you for writing and sharing, Bobby. Well, my advice is the opposite. Get cheap wood top first turn and one or two good bowl gouges. You will need time to establish your turning skills and cheap wood will be your friend. Once you're feeling more confident, then turn some nicer wood. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
My wife purchased me a better set , with long ash handles. I started to use them but l had a cheaper set Cummins brand . I grabbed the wrong 1 in a hurry an snapped 1/2 inch off the tip. I put a new edge on it an it cut well lol. But l hung it a few times early, cracked a knuckle a time or 2. Stopped it a few times about normal lol. My thought was Harbor freight has some on clearance for 30. Just in case you do what l did. Would have been upset if l had broken my present. Im most annoyed at the chuck l purchased. The back plate is in 4 pieces. I noticed others that way since. I put a pull tie to hold it together. Has to be perfectly level. The more balanced it became the better it held in the chuck. Just a learning curve, an l did learn, which is great. Thanks for all your help.
Hey Kent, quick question, how do you get so many different camera angles when recording? Filming myself turn is harder than the turning! Do you have some kind of tripod that you just move around? Iv'e been subbed to you for a long time on my other channel and learned a lot from you. Keep up the awesome work
Thank you for writing and sharing! Yes, I essentially stop and readjust the camera every time you see a cut. It takes time, but works well. It took me probably 20 videos before I started to really get it down. Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl awesome thanks for the reply!
That was a frighteningly large bark inclusion.
Is there a particular reason you refer to it as a bark "enclosure"?
Dave, yes, because it is enclosed inside the tree and not exposed to the world until it's cut open. Happy Turning! Kent
Where do you get the small circular pads & sanding discs that you use to sand the inside of your bowl?
I’ve been using something similar that I’ve ordered in Amazon but I’m hoping that there are better alternatives out there that I could be ordering from.
Thanks!
Check out my recommended equipment guide www.TurnAWoodBowl.com/gear Happy Turning!
The angle drill link says that particular drill is no longer available. Do you have another recommendation?
Kent, at what point would you not move forward with a piece because of the condition of the wood?
Alan, good question. Basically, if any section is at risk of breaking and flying out. Cracks, bark inclusions, and splits inside the bowl are usually ok. Along the rim and outer edges are risky. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Liveedge would of been better but still nice
Thanks Mullet. Happy Turning!
Can you tell me what kind of shellac you used?
Sure Shelley, I use light blond shellac flakes and I blend my own. I have a video all about it. Check it out. czcams.com/video/TH5gldZqme8/video.html Happy Turning!
What Grit on your wheel
80 for shaping and 180 for sharpening
I have turned Oak but never a Burl, I found most Oak had an interesting grain pattern, this might be a curious question but what happened to the grubs I wouldn't want them alive in the workshop. 🤔
Thanks Lewis. They were swept away with the shavings and composted. Happy Turning!
I have several cherry burls and I’ve turned two of them. I dug 9 worms out of one. I have one that is a “ball” around a limb. I think I’ll do live edge or natural edge, but wondering about making the bowl leaving the pith or branch in the middle of the bowl?
Your bowl is beautiful. A great video.
Thank you Edwin. Yes, you can leave the pith or a branch. The grain patterns will be that much more interesting. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Securely he eats the grubs off camera. (high protein workshop snacks)
