This is one ugly chunk of wood, rough cut, weathered, and wedge shaped. Or is it a misunderstood slice of potential? See it transform into something more in this week’s project video.
From the Port of Seattle some decades ago, this wood was trimmed from a pier and discarded as waste, and later found and brought home by a craftsman that saw something of value in it. When time went by and the craftsman passed on, this chunk of wood was headed to a fire to be burned away. That’s when one of my subscribers stepped in and said, “I know a feller that can do something with that!”
Special thanks to Anthony of PNW RC on RU-vid for sending me this chunk of potential! I appreciate being that “feller” you thought of!
Check out his channel here, it’s very interesting and surprising both!

These verses stuck out to me as I studied this week. Jesus Christ spoke these words, find comfort in them and seek him. He is my Savior and I’d be truly lost without Him.
Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

This may well be my favorite non-resin turned piece I've ever seen. The purple with the flash is absolutely amazing.

Sir, hats off for an excellent video. It's the first video I've viewed of yours. Good clear spoken English, no obnoxious music. I will subscribe and search for more of your videos. Great looking bowl. Thanks for the scripture. I'm 62 years old and last Friday I completed reading The Holy Bible. Better late than never. I'm going to start back over with Genesis and read it again. God bless you sir.

Thanks for this video. The fact that you show your mistakes and how you fix them helps me. It shows that you don't give up and that I shouldn't either. You have learned from your mistakes and that when I screw something up I should keep going. That's how one learns. It sounds basic I know, but that's how to learn. Thank you sir and keep up your good work.

That is beautiful. The colours are lovely, but almost more than that I love the very elegant shape of the bowl. It's slightly unusual and delicate. I guess there is a pull towards making a chunky bowl from a chunk of wood. So glad you didn't. 🇬🇧

@Tom Cannon - Thank you for giving the Men at the VA the Hearts, that really touches mine. I used to deliver emergency blood platelets to the VA in West Los Angeles. If it was during the day or early evening I'd see guys out front for a smoke. Every single one of them had obvious multiple physical traumas that were never going to be made whole. I'd get choked up every time. My Dad volunteered for the Marines at 18 y.o. and he served in Korea. His wounds are not visible to anyone but his family. No one gets out unscathed. Thanks again Tom.

My Great-Uncle Kenny used to work with purple heart wood a lot when he was around. It is so beautiful, he did some amazing projects with it. He told me it was so hard and dense that it would chew up a lot of his jigsaw blades, but the end result was worth it. :)

WOWZERS! That old piece of wood, I didn't think would make such a beautiful finished product! I shared this video with the son of the man that salvaged this cutoff. I know he'll be pleased to see that it was finally, after all those years sitting around, made something like this! Thanks for sharing how we can salvage a project with a boogered cut. I wasn't aware of that until I watched your video tip. If that had been my project, I most likely would have had to scrap it from that error..........................BFORE we watched this!

I have a salt shaker and pepper mill (about 7 inches tall) that my grandfather turned (in the 70's) out of purple heart wood. They, more than anything else he made, are why I have lathes in my workshop now. I recently cleaned them up and refinished them. It was a very satisfying project.
