- This was just a lot of work, no way around it. The piece started and ended at 17 1/2" at the widest point which is just about the max size for my 18" lathe. The top was not flat so had to remove 1 1/2" in height to level it. It was and is out of balance so the whole turning was done at under 400 RPM. I'm glad I did it and I like the outcome but won't be doing another this size anytime soon! LOL! Finished in shellac.

Gosh, Phil, that was some commitment to the cause of a CZcams video for our benefit! You always entertain and educate us, and produce pieces that no-one else would contemplate or envisage - you truly have a unique style ... and that is why we eagerly look forward to Thursday night in your company! Thank you so much.
So kind of you David, thank you! 😊
Huge bowl with unique design
😊
Very beautiful being that it's "just pine" along with a unique shape. Thank you sticking with it for all those days! Blessings.
Thank you very much! 😊
Glad for you when you're up for a big-boy undertaking! Attaboy Phil!
Haha, not up for it again anytime soon! 😊
I love the brown that's under the gray bark. Awesome work Phil!
Cool, me too! 😊
Whew! You had your hands full Phil ! But you brought it home buddy and made a beautiful piece to be proud of. Thanks for sharing with us.
My pleasure, Kid, thanks for watching! 😊
Golly, Phil, that is a big Ole bowl. It turned out fabulous. Made me tired watching 😆. People don't realize how beautiful Pine can be. I love it!!! You did a fabulous job on that big piece.
Thank you, Jane! 😊
I am out of proper adjectives! You have blown me away with this one!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!
You are too much!!
So well done, a masterpiece!!

Wow, thank you, Colleen!! 😊
Another Shady Achers MASTER piece. Phil, you never cease to amaze me with your work.
Thanks, Jack! 😊
I have to be honest and say I didn't think this was going to work out, however Phil produced the magic and it turned out just fine, worth the time spent on it, good job Phil. 😁
I'm glad you think so, Lewis, thank you! 😊
I chuckled at your sink comment 😂
😃
I was watching some other CZcams video when the notification for this video popped up. I instantly jumped over to your channel to watch your newly uploaded video. I truly enjoy watching your masterful works of art. I'm not even done watching yet. I just wanted to jump on here real quick and be one of the first to comment. 😉
That is awesome, Les, thank you! 😊
Phil, that was a lot of work. I'm tired for you. It is absolutely beautiful. The shape, the bark and the colors are just wonderful. Thank you for all work you put in to making this bowl.
Haha, I appreciate that, Jean, thank you! 😊
Great outcome, Phil. Your patience was rewarded. Well done.
😊
Wow. What a project. A lot of work for sure. I can see it full of popcorn. Hmmmmm. 💕
Yeah, just right for popcorn, Vickie! A tad too big for M&M's! 😊
I love it Phil I'm not crazy about pine but I love that you are the man
😊
Great idea putting the bead on top to delineate the bowl from the wings.
Thank you, Gary! 😊
Hi 👋, Phil from Phil. What a great looking 👀 Bowl, definitely a lot of fun to seeing you turning that peace, I don’t think a lot of people realise the time and effort that you have to put into a bowl turning like this, that is a amazing peace of Art, well done Phil. Stay safe.keep up the great work, we all look 👀 forward to seeing your next project, Phil from the moulin France.
Thank you, Phil! Working on the next one, now! 😊
The work of your hands is beautiful...
"One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys." Proverbs 18:9 NIV
😊
I think that’s the largest piece I’ve ever seen you do Phil. It’s beautiful! That one gave you a good workout. Glad you took time to do it over several days so you didn’t exist over extend yourself.
Thanks, Leona! 😊
Hi Phil. The most important lesson I have learned from you is "Mask and Face Shield On". I reviewed all my tools and easily see the safety requirements to use a mask and shield for most all tools I have. I have a bald spot on the top of my head and decided to leave it be. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You turned out yet another beautiful masterpiece!!!!!
Cool, thank you, Fred! 😊
Wow Phil! This one seemed to fight you all the way, but certainly from MY point of view it was worth it!! Once again you have performed your weekly miracle of turning a lump of firewood into a beautiful work of art!
Congratulations, Sir! Now go and put your feet up! You deserve a rest after that 5-day marathon!
My feet are up as we speak, Phil! 😊
That was a big piece. Turning the same piece for five days is a project. As always a nice job.
😊
Phil, You outdid yourself with this one. I didn’t have to put the energy into it; but, it was worth it! It is amazingly beautiful!!! I love it!
😊
Well that sure is one for the books. Loved watching the transformation.
Thanks, Chris! 😊
Hi Phil Waaaou. Big turn. The bark on the edge, looks like an eagle in flight, with wings spread out. Pretty. Pretty. Pretty. She flew over the tops of the Shady Acre Trees Tops, and decided to metamorphose herself into a bowl. Despite that we can hear the fatigue in your voice at one point, it is a beautiful bowl.
Forest fire smoke wise, I have been pretty lucky. Bought two air purifiers: one for the car; one for the house. Our air quality has been much better than it has been for some.
Have a beautiful week. Going snorkeling.
Oh, snorkeling will get you away from that smoke for awhile! Enjoy! 😊
What a great idea leaving the bark underneath!
I don’t think I ever saw one like that!!!!
Awesome
Glad you liked it, Luie! It was a chore! 😊
The bark and the top make the great difference , I knew at first sight that Phil had some idea of his own , as usual ...
You are right, those make this piece special, Youenn! Thanks! 😊
For just a piece of pine it came out beautiful. Love how big it is, stunning indeed. Thanks for the work and sharing it with us.🌿 👍👍👍👍👍 🕊
My pleasure, Rob, thanks for watching! 😊
It’s “ Yuggggge “. Nicely done. Something to be proud of for sure. Love it. 👍👍👍
😊
Hi phil ive always said your a masterwoodturner and you have proved it over these 5 days with this beautiful piece of wood. I like the woods grain, bark, inclusions, colour and markings. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and how you explain and show us everything you are doing and why. The huge Ponderosa Pine bowl is magnificent and unique thank you for your time and energy you putinto turning the bowl. Amanda xxxxxx
Many thanks, Amanda! 😊
That turned out better than I thought it would. very good. you are the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time.)
Wow, thank you, David! 😊
Beautiful!! Very rarely think about turning pine, you’ve changed my mind.
Hard wood is generally easier to turn than this soft Pine but still, I'm glad I turned it, Debra. 😊
Absolutely a beautiful piece especially the bark, l ❤ the contrast in colors
😊
Love the combo of bark and finished wood. Good job
Thank you! 😊 Cheers!
Phil - I'm my...ahem...humble opinion... This is the best piece I've seen you create. I love everything about it. I am especially proud of you for leaving the wide margin on the top and then put the little lip on it. It's perfect. I know it was a ton of work, but you started with a good piece of wood. You should always be working with good pieces of wood Phil and this bowl is proof of it. Please don't devalue your talent. You're really good.
>>>>>>>>This piece should be in a high end gallery, and priced accordingly. It's absolutely superb.
Wow, now my head is all swelled up! LOL! Thank you! 😊
Not only do you inspire with your work, you also impress with your patience.
I hope to someday be a decent wood turner and be able to produce some pieces that may come close to yours but more so I hope to have the kind demeanor and the humility as the likes of Phil Anderson.
Your one of the best Phil and that goes beond wood turning!
Wow, thank you so much! 😊
Cool ponderosa. We have a lot of them around my neck of the woods along with pinion & juniper. You rose to the challenge of that flaky bark. Awesome tuning with soft wood. If you smell that bark in nature it smells like butterscotch!! Thanks for sharing. 🌲
Very cool 😊
It took me a long time to watch this video but man I’m glad I didn’t pass it up! That bowl is SO WORTH IT! Thanks for sharing! I love it.
Any time, Tina, thanks for watching and commenting! 😊
This one is a humdinger, Phil. Just beautiful. This would make a great center of the table Fruit Bowl. A definite winner even if it took the juice outta you! Easy for me to say😂😂😂 Thanks Phil.
Haha, yep, easy for you to say, Kersi! 😊
In this week's episode: Phil processes ponderous Ponderosa Pine piece - prepares phenomenal product! It was great that you were able to rescue some of the bark, that added to the overall amazingness of the bowl.
Ha! I kept seeing Ponderous Pine, Deidre, wish I'd thought of that perfect piece of alliteration though. Love it! 😄
Haha, love that, Deirdre, thank you! 😊
Well that was sure worth watching because of its sheer size. You are wonderfully entertaining with your running commentary keeping us totally in the picture at all times. Five days was a heck of a commitment on your part & might I say, you did a fantastic job of editing it down. You have a style & presentation that is uniquely Phil Anderson & please don't ever try to change it. Thanks to your perseverance & skill this is a magnificent bowl & worthy of all the praise being expressed by all who admire your work. Your commitment to retaining as much bark & natural elements in each piece is highlighted in your skill in patching up all the missing pieces of bark & work with the angle grinder to achieve your final result. Great piece of work & great finish too, especially considering it is Pine & not noted as a high quality wood for finishing. Stay well my friend, Don from South Aust.
Thank you so much, Don, I'm really glad you took the time to watch and comment! 😊
Well said, Don! Phil's energy & stamina are an example to us all! As is his knack of finding the beauty in every piece of wood he picks up!
Spectacular Phil - the Ponderosa pine bowl is one of your best!
I'm glad you think so, thank you, Richard! 😊
Phil that came out very very well. I never would have considered turning Ponderosa Pine for a finished piece, but you did wonders with it. Wow!!
I turned some Pine years ago but this is my first time with Ponderosa. Other than nearly killing me, I'm very happy with the grain and color of this piece, Ken. 😊
Good afternoon, Phil.
Now that's a bowl. Big, bold and beautiful. Very nice work with the bark patching. The use of the right angle flap grinder was the perfect tool for the need. I like the outcome. Now it's time for a nap.
More like a hibernation, Ray! LOL! Thank you! 😊
A beautiful and challenging piece worthy of a special place amongst all of your other pieces. Thanks
Thanks, Michael! 😊
Well, you done did it again!!
Just lovely as usual!
I'm like you, leaving the bark gives the item pizzazz!!
Have a great day! Waiting for the next adventure!!

Thank you, Colleen! 😊
Wow, Phil, you showed courage to even try to turn a blank with known challenges. Well done!
😊
Wow who would have guessed that pine would end up a beautiful bowl This one sure did. You put a lot of hard work in it but it sure did the trick.
I had a PT visit this morning and my shoulder was feeling pretty good. After watching this it just HURTS thinking about it LOL.
Well done my friend,
Gary
Haha, yeah, this one did me in for a few days. Good thing it took three days to edit the dang thing! Good news that your shoulder is responding to treatment. I've never had good luck with PT. Thanks, buddy! 😊
Phil from what look uninspiring to a wonderful bowl, Thank you for sharing
Many thanks 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop praise due where praise deserved
😊love it. I'm glad you toughed it out ,for us all to enjoy.
Thanks, Danny! 😊
Absolutely gorgeous
😀
Hi Phil
Don't worry about the name, the first name is right 😂
I would have turned it the other side up but I think you made the right choice.😊 I love it.
I debated back and forth on this, Arland! I think my intention was to go bark side up when I first saw it, but after turning it over and over about 50 times, flat side won! 😊
Wow and WOW - pine, when it cooperates, is super. Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
Character-laden piece of wooden artistry...superb!
Thanks, Anthony! 😊
Phil, this is one of your best. Wow a pleasure as always.😊
Thank you, George! 😊
That's a Beautiful ❤️ piece of pine! Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you very much! 😊
Beautiful Phil, Lots of people dismiss Pine ( Insert Species) as a undesired medium to use for fine woodworking but Pine has always had a special place on my shelf. I think most woodwork's for beginners and accomplished woodworkers, can be made into awesome pieces. Love the live edge and grain of this useful bowl. Love it! Thank you for sharing.
Great point, Dan! As a young woodworker, I used a lot of pine in my projects, mostly due to it's reasonable price at the time. I loved the smell as I ran it through my tablesaw. Lots of decorative and useful pieces still floating around somewhere, I suppose. This piece smelled great too as I cut into it. Thanks, buddy! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I could almost smell it as you where turning it. I used to bag pine shavings in zip lock bags as it reminded me of home. PNW!
As always a beautiful job Phil. I always enjoy watching you.
Thank you, I really appreciate that! 😊
It’s amazingly beautiful ponderous pine bowl. Thank you for sharing ❤
Thanks, Maddie! 😊
I like the outcome too Phil. The texture of the bark is amazing😊
I like that bark too, David! 😊
Phil, that is one great piece of art. Experience really pays!
😊
Wow, that is just stunning, Phil! So glad you were able to keep the bark-it’s beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you, Marcia! 😊
What a fantastic piece Phil. The natural edge is amazing, Another wonderful work of art from a natural material. With skill. You are an inspiration
Glad you enjoyed it, Barry, thanks! 😊
Wow, way to go again Phil😊
😊
That's a beautiful bowl. It looked shallower on lathe almost like a custom bird bath but the hole killed that thought great to see you doing your craft. Good night Great Job Phil I missed watching you make beautiful pieces of art
Good to see you, Rich and thank you! 😊
Beautiful work and well worth the effort. I love the way you dealt with the bark, using a grinder to mellow the edges. Another masterpiece Phil.
Thank you very much, Alan! 😊
You did it Phil!!!! 👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Yay! 😊
I am pinning away for a project to turn out like that Phil, it’s great!
Practice, my friend, practice. I'm still learning! 😃
A lot of love and thought went into this piece, beautiful. Very nice. Thank you as always.
😊
Wow, 5 days! It’s a very pretty bowl. Thank you.

😊
Indeed it is beautiful! I love the bark on it, so obviously smooth and glossy!
Thank you, Stephanie! 😊
Wow, that's impressive! Greetings from Scotland. 🍻
Thanks for watching, Al! 😊
Seriously Phil, l thought the whole piece was going to go fall of when that chunk of bark went flying 😳 that Ponderosa pine with it's live edge is stunning, l love to watch the whole process, even the sanding, it's just fascinating that u can take that huge chunk of wood & turn it into such a beautiful bowl 😊 crikey, that carbide gauge really melts that wood away & u must be quite strong, cause u can see the force u apply to the wood & it jolting ur hand 🪵 ur hard work, is my relaxing time 😊
Haha, glad to help you relax, Karen! Thanks for watching! 😊
HI Phil u r a master in these type of turning. keep them coming.
Thanks, will do, Manjit! 😊
Really nice bowl, Phil. I know it was a LOT of work but I'm glad you persevered because it was worth it. Time to take a long rest.
