Woodturning Boring Logs Into Unique Bowl

  • I have had these Olive wood logs for a while now and have been saving them for something special. This is an amazing wood to turn. Besides for the stunning wood grain, it smells very pleasant and is a joy to work with. A few weeks back my friend Mike Holton posted a video of a bowl he made from Jarrah Burl wood and resin. I loved the shape and just couldn’t get it out of my head when thinking of what to make next. So I asked Mike if he would be okay with me attempting a similar design. He said he would be honored. This is probably my favorite piece I’ve made to date. I really like the unique shape and the contrasting colors of the wood and resin. Unfortunately it is difficult to capture the true beauty of this piece on camera. The resin looks very dark but is actually quite translucent in person. Thank you very much for letting me borrow your design Mike. Much appreciated. And thank you so much for watching. If you are interested in watching Mikes video I will leave a link below. I hope you have a wonderful day.

    Outstanding looking piece of work, terrific shape with the wide outer rim so you see more of the wood if something is in the bowl. I also use the rice method to calculate how much resin. Didn’t you have a video posted on your finishing process ? I think you brush it with epoxy and wet sand in between coats ? I may be mistaken or the process is in a build video. Have a great day 👍

    • @squareandlevel
      @squareandlevel  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks. I prefer using math to calculate the volume needed, but irregular shaped pieces like this make that difficult. I should have known better and added more to my fudge factor. Lesson learned. I have commented on my finishing process in a previous video, but honestly it is still evolving as I try new things and learn. Thank you for watching. I hope you have a wonderful day.

    My Favorite so far. The olive wood is stunning and the epoxy is great. It has a slight UFO vibe--very cool. Maybe in the future you can use metal gray epoxy for the body of a UFO shape then the lid could be a translucent dome. That would be the coolest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • @squareandlevel

      Thanks Barry. You and my son had the same thought. He wanted me to make a little dome lid and put an “alien” figure inside it. Appreciate the positive feedback as always sir. It is very appreciated. I hope you have a great day.

    • @squareandlevel
      @squareandlevel  Před 19 dny

      It’s funny you say that because I feel the same way about saving specific pieces for when I’m better at this. I’m slowly starting to just go for it after hearing someone I have a lot of respect for say “it’s only a piece of wood”. I can get more. It not a waste if we are enjoying ourselves doing something productive. Thank you for watching. I hope you have a great day.

    • @squareandlevel
      @squareandlevel  Před měsícem +1

      Thank you very much. ( I’m pretty new to turning as well. Roughly 6 months). As far as food safe finishes go I would recommend to do some research. It’s a debated topic and no matter what I say there will be someone who says I’m wrong. That said, I would recommend raw linseed oil or walnut oil followed up with beeswax. They are good option and I personally prefer the natural look and feel they give to the piece. Thanks for watching. I hope you have a wonderful day.
