Welcome to Square and level, my name is Scott. Turning wood to saw dust and constantly cleaning my shop takes up the majority of my free time. Making unique pieces from scrap wood and resin is what I like best. If you enjoy the process of blank preparation and turning this is the place for you, thanks for visiting!

I don’t get why woodturners don't do this more?
Woodturning is an incredibly fun and rewarding hobby. Proper lathe maintenance is probably one of the most overlooked aspects of woodturning. Regular maintenance will not only increase the lifespan of your lathe, but will make it safer and more enjoyable to use, while likely improving the quality of your finished pieces. It can be easy to overlook, but is vital to a successful woodturning experience. Thanks for watching! I hope you have a great day!

Woodturning an Amazing Almond Wood Stump
Переглядів 67 тис.Місяць тому
Woodturning a vessel from a section of an almond tree and epoxy resin. In this video I used the rest of the almond tree wood that was left over from the almond root video I made a few months back. I am extremely happy with how this piece turned out. I feel it is probably my best piece of turning to date. The proportions just feel right. The resin mold was made from cardboard concrete footing tu...

Turning Branches Into a Stunning Resin Bowl!
Переглядів 26 тис.2 місяці тому
This was a really fun woodturning project. I had cut down this small tree from my side yard about three years ago and had been saving this branch in my shop to make a hiking stick out of. I decided to try and use it in a turning piece instead. It wasn't going to be enough wood, so I added a few pieces of a walnut tree branch I had laying around as well. I am really happy with how this bowl turn...
Woodturning a Square into a Triangle?

This was my fisrt attempt at woodturning a tri-corner bowl from a cube. I used my last piece of 8/4 walnut scrap to make this piece. Even though I had some issues with the pressure pot, I am very pleased with how this piece turned out. I was a little nervous about turning a cube mounted on the corners, but in the end I was nervous for no resean. This was a fun piece that pushed the limits of my...
Woodturning a Special Request for my Wife
Переглядів 577 тис.4 місяці тому
My beautiful amazing wife asked me to make her some unique candle stick holders. These banksia seed pods definitely create a unique look and capping the pods with some Sapele hardwood gave a nice touch. This was a rare project that I had to purchase the materials. Banksia pods come from a woody shrub/tree native to Australia. I was able to source these seed pods online from Rockler, though ther...
Woodturning Rotted Root with Amazing Grain
Переглядів 216 тис.5 місяців тому
Woodturning with roots is without a doubt my favorite material to create with. Every piece is very unique with the wood grain going in every direction. I picked up a large root ball for free from Offer up a few months back. It had been used as a decoration in someone’s garden and had been sitting out in the elements for years. It has lots of voids and rotted spots in it, so before making someth...
Woodturning a Spectacular Split Log Vessel

Thank you very much to everyone who voted in the poll for the color of this piece. My wife found a Facebook post for free wood in my area. I was able to get a bed full of these Eucalyptus logs. I cut most of them into a variety of bowl blanks, but kept a few logs as well. I specifically did not seal this particular log because I wanted it to crack for this specific design. Unfortunately there a...
Olive Wood Bowl That is Out of This World!
Переглядів 87 тис.7 місяців тому
I have had these Olive wood logs for a while now and have been saving them for something special. This is an amazing wood to turn. Besides for the stunning wood grain, it smells very pleasant and is a joy to work with. A few weeks back my friend Mike Holton posted a video of a bowl he made from Jarrah Burl wood and resin. I loved the shape and just couldn’t get it out of my head when thinking o...
Woodturning Sweet Gum Seed Pods Into Stunning Box

My neighbors tree drops these seed pods in my backyard every year. I decided I would try to make something with them instead of just throwing them in the waste bin. I used zebra wood for the end caps and part of the lid. The eye candy Komainu ultracolor shift pigment powder looks absolutely amazing combined with the superclear deep pour epoxy resin. I chose to use Waterlox original for the fini...

This is my first attempt at woodturning a bowl from a board. The inspiration for this piece was from a video by thepapa1947. For a full instructional video on this process, please watch his video.

I’m not sure I ...
Woodturning- The Almond Root

I was given this Almond tree root ball from a member of my local woodturning club. This is my first attempt at turning a root ball. I was definitely a little nervous about this one, it was the largest and most unbalanced piece I have turned to date. Originally I had planned to not use any resin in this piece, but unfortunately there was no way I was going to be able to hallow it out and have it...
Woodturning Unique Walnut Vase

I am turning this vessel from a walnut crotch log I won in a raffle at my local woodturners club meeting. I had some indecision about what resin project to do next, I just couldn’t pick one from the list. So I decided to take a break and make something out of just wood for a change. Definitely a fun, quick piece and I got some practice in with my all my tools. Even got to try out my new lathe s...

In this video I make a piece without the use of a pressure pot and explain why I prefer to use one. Luckily the piece came out pretty good, but I will not be trying this again. I feel a pressure pot is a requirement if turning with resin. Thank you very much to Simple Woodturning Tools for providing the scraper and rougher used in this video. They worked fantastic and I’m sure to get a lot of u...

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
I love this beautiful work of art jus t the way it is cover and all!
That’s not a box…
Georgeous! I wonder how it would look with other colors... as another commenter stated: lit from within! Yesterday I met a woodworker that was purchasing teak to make goblets for the Renn Fest. Wished I had gotten his name! I have these in my backyard falling from the tree all year... a set of lamps made from these would be amazing!
I want to buy this now
Exquisite work
Tremendous work. While I have a miniature lathe, I could achieve this using a larger machine. Stunning work
Take my money!!!!!
I'm surprised that you use hot glue with resin. Your addition of the fan on the pressure pot supports that you are aware of the exothermic reactions. Too many times I've seen hot glue fail from unexpected heat. Thanks for sharing this video. Cherrs
This is not a box. This is a jar.
I really enjoyed watching your build. Everything looked amazing and you did a great job. I appreciate your running commentary and your sense of humor. You have a new subscriber. I can’t wait to watch your videos! Thanks!
THAT TURNED OUT LOVELY. Well done.
Beautiful. I noticed first that the inner pattern of the sweet gum seed pod looked so much like honeycomb. Then it hit me that this is yet ANOTHER natural occurring hexagon, one I had never thought of or realized. Very cool
Excellent travail !
Yeah… I would say you saved it!!!
Hey there, my man. I dig everything you do. And I love your videos. I love how you explain even when there’s a problem and I really love how you fix things. Please keep up with the videos. I absolutely love them. You’re my favorite thing on UA-cam. Been a Wood turner for about four years. I guess I could say I’m still learning, but you never learn it all. Please keep up the great work.
Superbe travail !
I hate these things. How many of us have almost broken some bones not seeing one of these bastards in the dark? 😒
I collected these pods that grow around town to use as enhancements in my dryer sheet flower arrangements I made. I used to have a scroll saw but I made boxes for my arrangements using a miter saw. They are a fascinating and multi use item.That and other seed items from different species of trees or bushes in town.
Beautiful work. I've always making things with the Sweet Gum pods. Nothing as beautiful as your jar.
That’s is nothing less than superb. I couldn’t afford one I’m sure, but what a unique addition to your home. Great, great job!
I now know the proper name for these seeds, my partners family told me they were monkey balls 😂
And the music is good
I enjoy your narrated videos the best!
Beautiful!!!
Beautiful, but way to much work involved IMO.
That is stunning!
Awesome!
❤
Stunning
Beautiful
The amount of work that goes into something like this is amazing, especially just to make... a bowl, lol.
Stunning!
Superbe !!!
This is beautiful craftsmanship!
Very pretty
This is over-the-top beautiful!
Sir, you are an incredible artisan. This piece is amazing!
2:24 Why are you trying to break this by bending it upwards... if anything goes wrong, your face is there, and your arm and wrist are there. Wear glasses and bend it downwards so you can use your weight. Maybe i have no idea what I'm talking about
❤❤❤❤
I want to do this!
At the two minute mark I turned you off. With editing this could take five minutes and you stretched it to 13. It doesn’t matter how amazing this could have turned out. Not interested.
My front yard is full of these!
Amazing
Whats yhe thing with roller blade wheels for? Sry if its a dumb question.
Very nice!
That's gorgeous! Thank you.
That is very beautiful I love it
Seed pods would make something beautiful❤
Is liquid Amber tree similar because it looks the same kind of seed pods
