Well I sure did not expect a branch running through the middle of this turning. But it makes sense. The grouth was proabaly something the tree grew to cover a damaged branch.
Sure made for an interesting look.
Thanks to all who voted for turning the burl. I will be doing the Guave soon.

I can imagine how much work that was to turn. It really did not want to be a turned project. Glad the branch did not make the piece fly apart after all the work. Well done.

@ThePapa1947 8 дней назад

Yes it was a bit of a problem but it held together just fine. I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching, Gary

@rayworstine4399 7 дней назад

Good evening, Gary. Choosing a place for the worm screw was an important part of this project. Very nicely done. This is a gorgeous bowl.

@ThePapa1947 7 дней назад

Thanks Ray. Many times being perfeclty centered is not the best. I thought I had it good on the first hole but seeing I was cutting away the good features moving the hole was a good thing. Thanks for watching my friend, Gary

Well, I love it…the bottom adds so much character! This is exactly the kind of piece I love to turn …cracks, knots and all!

It's a beautiful piece, Gary! They don't all have to hold soup!😅 Sometimes, we just need to create pieces that are pleasing to the eye and the soul! Thanks for the video. Well done!!

The grain is awesome Gary. Very unusual bottom, but that is what the wood gave you -- it is still an awesome bowl with unique character. The orientation you chose was the right choice; it preserved that really awesome figure.

@marciak9826 12 дней назад

Well that sure is interesting! It turned out great! I’m glad you left it just as it was and didn’t doctor it up with anything. Pretty color in that burl, and an interesting shape. Thanks, Gary!

@ThePapa1947 12 дней назад

Thank you very much Marcia. I know many would epoxy it and I think epoxy looks great but it is just something I chose not to do. No matter what I wanted the split of that branch to go all the way though. After all the grouth on there had it covered for many years. Thanks for watching, Gary

@RobertSchoenert 11 дней назад

I like the bottom. At first, I thought it could be filled with dyed epoxy (some color other than black), that would draw one's eye, but it already does. inspiring

@ThePapa1947 11 дней назад

Thank you very much Robert. I think dyed expoxy is a choice many would make. I avoid the stuff . Not that it does not look good for somethings. Just not for me. The fumes ,dust and mess is not good to be around. At least for me. I will use it to keep a piece together now and then. Thanks for watching, Gary

Gary!!! How can you knot like that bottom? It is an outstanding piece of character in a beautiful turning that is full of character. Very, very, nice and well done! Glenn

Thank you Glenn. For sure I love it. Take care, Gary

Loved this one Gary. Must have missed the survey, but this one was fantastic..the inside bottom I really looked but you didn’t show it long enough to really make up my mind unfortunately. The piece lost a lot of diameter, I don’t really know if you could have saved any of it. Good one, thanks for sharing

@ThePapa1947 12 дней назад

Thanks Greg. I should have zoomed in on it Maybe I will make a 30 second short and show the inside. Sorry about that. I made it full round when the nice grain showed up. Thanks for watching, Gary

That's pretty neat. It reminds me of a Hickory burl that my brother sent me. He told me to try and make a kuksa out of it, and I kept it in a box for quite a few years. When I finally got a lathe, I decided that maybe it was time to see what was inside that burl. Mine started off with dimensions more like yours finished at, so the bowl is proportionally smaller finished. But man did it have some beautiful grain in there. And it ended up with 2 sections of brown potato skin as part of it. Good stuff. 👍 come to think of it, the bottom is actually also made of a branch, too.

@ThePapa1947 12 дней назад

Thank you William. I think it is common that there will be a branch inside these grouths. A tree will try and heal itself if a branch breaks. So they seemed to get these on potatoes growing on them LOL. Yours sounds very interesting as well. Thanks for watching, Gary

@ThePapa1947 Sometimes, I get a little jealous of my brother, he lives in northern New York state, so he gets Osage Orange, and all sorts of interesting wood that I never see in Minnesota and Wisconsin. But I find a lot of good stuff around here, too. My mother has a Bitternut Hickory in her backyard that just dropped a big branch and I'm going to go clean it up and see if there are any good parts to turn. Stay cool out there in the wild west!

I love the look of the piece.. How have you been. I've not turned anything in awhile. the whole selling stuff at my booth has been keeping me very very busy. cutting boards and tables . bowls don't do much. people love them but not the price. I need to get back to it.

@ThePapa1947 11 дней назад

Thank you Chris. Doing good here thanks. I would never be able to find the time to setup a booth and sell what I make. But I sure have the turnings stacking up LOL Thanks for watching, Gary

Hi Gary You have thought me all I know about segmented turning Thank You.I want to turn a big bowl from Maple and Wallnut boards.Do I have to cut 2 sets of each row and woods on my wedgie sled to get a brick and mortar pattern to get the table saw fault to line up the angles Thanks Peter

@ThePapa1947 9 дней назад

Thank you Peter. If you want the same size segments in the rows then cut half out of Maple and half out of Walnut. So if you have 18 segments per row make 9 from each type of wood. If you choose 12 per row then 6 of each and so on. Hope that helps, Gary

@WoodWizardrybyColin 11 дней назад

Wow that was an interesting one turned out really nice Q I was wondering what angles do you use for your negative rake scraper?

@ThePapa1947 11 дней назад

Thank you Colin! The scrapper is 38 degrees on each side. They say anything less than 90 is good but I find around 40 to be real good. Last time I changed it to 76 and like it a lot. Thanks for watching, Gary

Nice job Very cool Piece Gary!😎 Definitely looked like some hard stuff to cut, I could feel it just watching ya, got some nice character, pretty cool potato skin features, I looked for some faces but couldn’t see any but there is probably some definitely hiding in there, sometimes some takes longer to look at before ya see it, I got a piece of pecan, I don’t know if it’s burl or just some crazy looking something but anyway I had it kikin around in the house for probably a year, looked at it one day at a certain angle and it looks just like a camel 🐪 head,

@ThePapa1947 10 дней назад

Thanks Kimsey. I hardly ever see a face till I pick it up to show the turning. I think we have our minds on just getting it cut to a nice shape to look for faces. It is cool when you finally see them. We have some tile in the house that I see faces in all the time. When I come back to look I can't find them anymore. I wonder where they went LOL!
