Hi, welcome to my channel, here you will find videos on Woodturning and Woodworking. I try to upload one video a week, however sometimes this may not be possible as I work full time, but content will be on the way as regularly as possible! I've been turning for around a year and still learning everyday. I try to make interesting projects and things people haven't seen before. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment or contact me directly via email. Hope you enjoy!

I recently cut a limb off a tree in my back yard and saw the red color inside. At the time I didn’t know what kind of wood it was but I kept it to turn later. Good to know that it is Box Elder.
Thanks for watching! I do understand what you're saying. However, I really like to work with what I have, and this piece of wood was screaming to have a slanted top 😊
Thanks for watching David! This is Box elder, did you see the base that was showing the pink/red stripes on the inside of the wood, also when I was turning you could see the red grain coming out 😊
First thing I was taught spindle turning was from largest to smallest diameter so you’re not pushing into the end grain. It goes easier and you get a better cut and finish.
That base you cut it off from looks interesting. Did you make something out of that part? Looks like it had the same red grain in it. Bleeding red in a piece of wood, what exactly does that mean?
@@HarrySmithWoodturning Ciao Harry ormai sei un mio idolo, la cosa che mi arricchisce è il fatto che quando lavori ci mostri il filmato a distanza ravvicinata e poi i tuoi filmati non sono molto lunghi. Bravo quando si insegna a qualcuno lo si deve fare con amore.GRAZIE
