    I cut this piece of apple crotch wood around 2 years ago. I left it to dry as I do with most of my wood but unfortunately some massive cracks opened up both at the top and bottom. As I haven't turned much apple wood I wanted to start turning it and see if I could remove the cracks and make the replacement parts. I used some spalted beech to drill out the cracks and make the piece stand out.
    The piece has been sanded to 10000 grit and finished with sanding sealer and wood wax.

    My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
    And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.

  • @RevdUp.Art.Fotografer

    Gorgeous! Striking! The spalting in the beech is amazing. The apple wood turned out to be a great choice because it threw you a curve ball and your response was intuitively perfect. I saw a vid last night where a specific type of maple was used (can't remember the name). It didn't have an obvious grain but when it was cut or turned it shimmered with light when the piece was moved. I'd never seen anything like it. That would be brilliant in this application either as the vase itself or the additions...of whatever size or placement.
    Congrats on the website It's beautiful. (I sent you a private email through the website.)
