In this video, I'm turning a Laburnum log into a wood turned vase.
This vase has a really cool look - it looks like ET has called home! woodturning is a great way to add some decorative detail to your home, and this vase is a perfect example of how easy it is to turn a log into a beautiful piece of art. If you're interested in starting woodturning, this video is a great introduction to the art form. Thanks for watching!

Mike! I enjoyed this so much The shape that you created looks so elegant strong and well proportioned and the natural edge you fashioned in the rim design is so resonant with the uncut laburnum log love everything "Parting tool" is my favorite part of your videos, especially because we don't get it every time. The beauty shots at the end are fabulous.

@MikeHolton 7 месяцев назад

Most creative reply EVER!! Thanks so much my friend, I'm not a fan of the parting tool but am getting better which is why you got to see it this time 😀. All the best, MIke

@j.g.campbell3440 7 месяцев назад

I appreciate being in on the creative process, even if vicariously. Some of the other YT wood turners keep one in the dark, until the project is nearly complete. What's even worse are the guys who try to pantomime and, I suppose, appeal to an international audience, but bewilder most of the audience. At least Harpo Marx had Chico to interpret for him. Lol.

@MikeHolton 7 месяцев назад

@@j.g.campbell3440 Thanks Leslie, when I started out on this journey I knew that I just wanted to keep it as real and as honest as I could. I'm not pretending to be any great turner, I make mistakes like everyone else and when I do, I show them and talk about what I did wrong. I want to help make a community of like minded people who just love to be creative and have fun while doing it. Mike

@quercusmorgana 2 месяца назад

I love how you collaborate with the pieces of wood you're turning. You're definitely coming in with your own ideas, but wind up with a beautiful conversation back and forth as the piece progresses. Also thank you for all your explanations along the way. I don't know if I'll ever turn wood myself, but I feel a little more prepared to take a class after every video of yours I watch.

@TishaHayes 7 месяцев назад

Feminine is an appropriate phrase. You could also say that it is elegant or even sensual. As I was watching you work it early on I thought of a more wasp-waisted look with a flared out base. IMHO, Sometimes people get so sensitive about what they say or can't say that the words they eventually settle upon don't mean much at all.

@MikeHolton 7 месяцев назад

You are right Tisha and I hate it. I spend so much of my time trying hard not to offend anyone I loose the moment. Oh well, all the best, Mike
