You have probably seen me turn a few worlds on my channel, but I've just revealed the full process on the very first globe I made, which to be truthful wasn't that good!! So in this video I go through the full process utilizing a number of Maple Burr bowl blanks which I glued together to form the sphere blank, drawing the continent's is constantly challenging but on this I had to make certain the take part the blanks was in the ocean, so it would not be seen, so I needed to use even more artistic licence than I usually do. Thanks for examining it out.

Morning Andy
As someone who loves globes & maps these are some of my favourites that you make. I love it π€π…The world is in safe hand π. Havs a nice weekend
Good morning! π
As a 63 year old who would like to start wood turning, I don’t think I will live long enough or ever be able to turn enough to develop this incredible level of artistry!
Absolutely stunning work. β€
Thank you
If you’ve got the money, you’ve got the time! 63 is more than enough time, you just need the tools, some simple training, and the will to do it! You may not turn out the level of quality you see here, but you’ll never know if you don’t try…
Just go for it, dude. Try and have fun! π
Timely considering the whole world could see 5 other planets in alignment a few days ago from earth. Such a beautiful sculpture β€
I love your globes, no matter how you want them to turn out (I have a particular soft spot for your “half a globe”, showing the core), but I really appreciate how much of the process you showed us this time.
Was that a blue ink or acrylic paint you used for the oceans? Whatever it was, it’s a stunning hue.
Bravo maestro! You’ve stunned me again with your awesome talent. It’s absolutely beautiful!
Edit: meant to say how the way you did it this time made it look like there were clouds over the oceans. Like looking from the ISS! Would you consider painting the continents too? I can imagine that would be mind-blowing!
Thanks Mandy.. it was a spirit stain…
Your art continues to inspire. Thank you for sharing with us. β€
A very nice piece showing true skill and patience ππππ
Iβve said it before, you wood turnerβs are the Mad Scientistβs of the Artisan world! Congratulations on your beautiful work of art.
Beautiful!! I love watching your creations coming to life on the lathe.
Absolutely fantastic … I’d have problems even trying to draw Britain, never mind to scale and the entire planet … brilliant π
love your globes Iβm always impressed you can draw the world freehand! β€π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ
Patience of a saint, and hands of a surgeon. Beautiful work!
What amazing skills! Beautiful piece!
Artistic license, or not; this is marvelous. The Maple burr was the perfect wood for this, and you managed the joint, perfectly. You have mad skills. π
I really like this globe Andy. It has an extra quality to it which I canβt put into words. ππ»
Your freehand work is otherworldly. Thanks for starting my weekend off the right way. π
That freehand map drawing never ceases to amaze me.
Absolutely stunning, Andy! π And in my view this magnificent globe demonstrates the highest and best use of blue goo — as water!
Andy, after seeing your proficiency in globes and the advancements in space photography I was wondering if one day soon you might start doing other planets or say our moon? I think youβd knock that out of the park, light and dark sides with craters all around. Your work is incredible inspirational and oddly meditative, thank ~Smile oN
Beautiful globe you have made! Great idea, Andy.π
My favorite one since the pencil globe! π Fantastic work Andy. The depth of the water is incredible and the wood has such wonderful burles. I am going to have to camp out at the online store for this one.
