In this wood turning video I turn a natural edge bowl from a big Yew log. With the size of the piece and the cool looking natural edge I knew it would be out of balance and even with my makeshift lathe assistance I needed to start reversing 250 rpm and I believe the maximum speed I got to was around 550 rpm so it was definitely a challenging piece to turn, I completed it with Danish oil …

Now I could be wrong, but I think this is the first time you’ve had to use an extension on the lathe? The piece was beautiful, these are always the highlight of my evening.❤
Thanks Adham .. I think this is only the second time I’ve videod using it 👍
Beautiful work, a gorgeous piece.

What an absolutly STUNNING charcuterie board! The colours of the wood, the rings and the live edge! Its perfect!
I love the unique shape and all the detail in the wood, she’s exquisite !
Wow that was surreal to watch. It looked like the wood was spinning but not spinning almost frozen at moments, then reversing while spinning all at the same time! Very unique piece, amazing job 👏
(And no…i haven’t been drinking ha ha )

Show-off! 😀 That turned out beautifully. The colours and shapes of those growth rings look amazing.
I could stare at the grain and the chatoyance of this piece for hours at a time – you’ve really brought a beautiful Yew log to life.
As usual, a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for sharing your skill with us. 💖
This is beautiful! I love the curve and all the colors in the wood
Thanks Jonas 👍
What a truly stunning piece – from the overall shape to the beautiful showing off of the grains throughout. The spinning force of this piece must have been incredible! Thanks for sharing your work – its so fun to watch.
one of the coolest pieces of wood i’ve ever seen. i haven’t seen many so that’s not saying much but still, it looks incredible. the shape, figuring, the color, it’s like mother natures version of abstract art. awesome job bringing it alive 👍
The final finishing coat transformed this beautiful piece into a 3 dimensional work of art!
This is absolute mastery. Beautiful work!
You’ve got the patience of a saint and an attention to detail that is all too rare in the age of mass-produced garbage.
It’s nice to see how some of the techniques you’ve developed while making these videos have become second nature at this point. Please keep on turning, I never miss a project.
Thankyou
What an amazing piece of wood… the colours and shape are awesome! Beautiful work 😁💙
One of the most beautiful pieces of wood before you even started! So many patterns and colours. It sort of reminded me of some of the huge fungi that grow out of trees given its natural shape. That’s not meant in any way as an insult! You brought out both shape and colours beautifully ❤
Love the optical illusions where it looks like your chisel isn’t even touching but there’s still all the chips flying off. It came out gorgeous
That was unique and beautiful! You definitely did that Yew log justice. Well done! 👏❤
