Woodturning an Amber Effect Rimmed Platter

- Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
- Woodturning - a friend told me she thought this had a look of amber about it and who am I to disagree! Back to colouring with this one - another wide rimmed beech platter or shallow bowl. Coloured with spirit stains and finished with lacquer then buffed.

Since I started making these videos in 2017, I have been lucky enough to receive the support of some manufacturers with materials to use in my videos. Since May 2018, Chestnut Products have provided me with stains, an iridescent paints sample set, lacquers and waxes. I'd like to thank them for their kind and generous support. Martin Saban-Smith has provided me with a sample set of Intrinisic Colours.
All other products and tools, unless where indicated, have been bought from suppliers at retail prices. Products mentioned in my videos are for information purposes so that viewers know what I have used.
Very cool, Stewart! Thumbs up!👍
Thank you, David! Glad you like it. Cheers!
So critical of your own work! But that's what makes you so good. I've had a long "holiday" from woodturning but watching you, Stewart, has inspired me to take it up again. Thank you.
Thank you, Keith! I hope you have fun with getting back to turning. Cheers!

Smashing jimmy-jams Stewart! 😁😁😁😁Bowl is a definite winner mate👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
Thanks, Alan! Glad you like both the bowl and the pj's!
I think it's really nice! 💜
Thanks, Tracey - I think so too! I enjoy building up the colour with the stencils and different layers.
Wow, Stewart, I really like this bowl...it is so pretty!
Thanks, Carol - I'm glad it's had such a popular response and delighted you like it. Cheers!
Well you already know my thoughts on this one 😁. Fantastic workshop day with you at the weekend thanks Stewart, thanks for your friendly, generous, knowledgeable and inspiring guidance and for an all round brilliant day. I thoroughly recommend anyone inspired by Stewart's creations to book a day workshop with him. After many experiments during the day I even came away with something inspired by the piece in this video and full of ideas for other creations...can't wait to try them.
Thanks, Stuart! It was great to meet you and have time colouring and chatting. Delighted you enjoyed your day and I look forward to seeing your ideas come to life. Cheers!!
Really like the colors and the black accents. Your work on this "keeper" done well.
Thanks, Bud - this was fun to do and great that it was sold too! Cheers!!
so nice dun.
Thanks, Anders!
i love it, thats a keeper in my eyes ;)
Thanks, blue toe.....it has been put on the keep pile!
Love it 👍
Thanks, Kevin! I guess it's a keeper then!
Smashing! I love it.
Cheers, Doug - it's definitely in the keep pile now!
I got this one recommended on my UA-cam. I like it. It became very interesting with all it had going on. I love plain wood, but you do some really cool and creative things with paint, but still keep some plain wood to offset it and make each pop. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again Stewart. Glad I found your channel. Stay safe, Vickie
Thanks, Vickie....I think it's fair to say I tend to get a bit carried away at times! I'm pleased you found my channel - enjoy the back catalogue! Cheers
Now that's a keeper, nice.
Glad you like it!
We'll very happy with yellow and black then as always more colours and as always some how a master piece , then we know what's next,gone before you eyes 😉👍👍
Cheers, Barry....fear not....this one still exists.....honest!!
I think the color is beautiful.
Thanks, Andrew - glad you like it! Cheers!
Really like this one, Stewart. Real depth to the colors. Don't turn it away, please.
I have bowed to public opinion, and it's on the keep pile! Cheers!!
Congrats on 5 K subscribers . Really like this piece it's definitely a keeper .
Cheers, Glen! I've kept it!
Thanks for sharing Stewart! I like the black veining through the amber rim. One embellishment you may indulge in is using a shellac applied in a French Polish technique. But, dissolve the shellac flakes with 151 drinking spirits and not denatured alcohol. You should find a 1lb cut should give you a amber tone without detracting from the rim if applied to the bowl and back/ base. The shellac finish applied in 3 or 4 coats is very resilient and durable finish when applied in a French polish technique. Like a violin or guitar. Bonus is doing it on the lathe takes minutes not hours like in applied with a violin or guitar.
Thanks for the video!
Thanks, Micheal - and thanks for the tip about shellac. It is now on my tuit list! Cheers!!
Your videos never cease to make me smile
Looks great Stuart, unlike your pyjamas 😂
Thank you! I think my pyjamas are great....but the platter is better, that's for sure!
It is beautiful but rather than austere, I would consider the black and yellow as sophisticated. But then black is one of my favorite colors, joined with yellow is one of my favorite combinations. I'd never thought of airbrushing a turning. You've given me new ideas.
Thanks, Suzette - glad you like it. I really will do a yellow and black one soon!! If you get to do some airbrushing, I hope you have fun! I do one-to-one workshops if you're not too far from the south-east of the UK?
I think it should be a keeper.
Cheers, Greg....I've been convinced...it's a keeper!
A very nice ending. I think, personally, that I would have stopped earlier with the black and yellow and the orange glow peeping through. It's very easy to say this from hindsight 😃
Thanks
James
Cheers, James! You know I always go at least one stage too far....had another go at this technique for the next video and took it at least another three stages further!!
Dont turn it off it looks great to me. I like the natural wood grains but your stuff looks great. Cant wait for the giveaway lol.
Haha...good luck if I get round to doing it! Glad you like it. Cheers!
I like the piece very much. But I was waiting for the platter color to match your pjs 🤣 👍🇺🇸
Well, that is certainly a very fetching colour combination - a future project for sure!
I do like your approach and what turns out, and yes I thought oh that's nice when it was just black and yellow, then went off it a little - but actually really liked the end result.
Thanks, Chris. I know what you mean. I liked the black and yellow very much too...maybe one day I'll be able to restrain myself!
I vote keep!
Cheers, Trevor....I'd better keep it then!
Yes! Save it.
Well that's pretty emphatic, Blair.....I'd best keep it then!
I love this one Stewart, congrats on the 5K subs! 👍
Thanks, Phil - this one has certainly gone down well....better than I expected!
I think you should save it. You have a blessed
I think you are right.....Thank you!
Like it. Colours have a kind of an “old fashioned” look to them .....
Thanks, David! I know what you mean - something old and leathery that's rather worn and cracked....Cheers!
Ha ha...no not what I meant at all!!!
@@davidcharleson5241 Haha....then I guess I don't know what you mean!!
I think it reminds me of an early coloured photo of tree branches or something like that in autumnal sunshine. I like it a lot....
@@davidcharleson5241 now that sounds much nicer than what I had in mind! Cheers, David!!
KEEP IT!
All right then, I'll keep it.....Cheers!!!
AH! That explains how they went together! Thank you! Love the PJs, gonna turn plaid while wearing them sometime?
Hi, Valerie! Yep - cool idea.....I do take inspiration from textiles quite often and using my own clothes would be far less problematic than taking clandestine photos of people on the street wearing something that's caught my eye!
Loverly
Cheers, Steve!
Brilliant Colouring's. Me thinks it's a keeper Stewart.....
Thanks, Ian - glad you like it. I've decided to.......keep it!!
I hope you keep it. Every time I see you adding more colors I think to myself “Why is he doing that?”, and then it all seems to come together and another beautiful piece is created. Thank you for all your work. Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks, Dan! Glad you like it!
I think it looks great, and should be kept. I like the warmth of the colours and the fact that they blend into one another - even if that last was a 'mistake'. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Philip - it's growing on me!
Good video , good platter , baddd PJs
Thanks, Rosemary! Sorry about the PJs.....but glad you like the platter and video: 2 out of 3 ain't bad!
STEWART...ITS A LOVELY JOB!...KEEP IT, SELL IT, GIFT IT TO SOMEONE...ITS VERY NICE
Message received - it's a keeper! Cheers!!
That’s definitely a keeper. Beautiful piece. Love the colour combination, one of your finest. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you, Rex - I'll put it in to keep pile then! Cheers!!
That is beautiful piece of art.I hope you find it in your heart to save this one. Thanks for sharing your videos.. the teaser at the end looks nice too...
Thank you so much, Holly! It's growing on me!!
ochor bunt yellow !
Thanks, Mike - that makes it sound much posher! Cheers!!
Most definitely a keeper. I like the blending of the colors and how they compliment each other. Nice job.
Thanks, George - glad you like it! Cheers!!
This one is a keeper, Stewart. The colors and shine make it look like an old porcelain piece.
Thank you, William - my worries of it not being well received are proving to be very unfounded! Cheers!
Sempre surpreendendo, fantástico
Thank you, Luiz! Delighted you like it. Cheers!
I do like it Stewart but is most likely on the workshop floor by now
Thanks, Woody.....don't worry, it's still intact and on the keep pile....Cheers!
Looks good Stewart, better than my colouring, keep it. PS love the PJ’s 😊
Thanks, Ian - I think I'll work on a PJ inspired rim....I'm enjoying watching your colouring on facebook - keep it up!
Have you started adding teasers for the next episodes? :-) @13:51, after the ending credits/logos.
...occasionally - when I'm organised enough!!
Hi Stewart, You have to keep this one. If you don't want to I may be able to suggest a good home for it. I let you guess where. Where did you get your stencils from? Cheers, Huw. PS Congratulations on the 5000+ subscribers. Huw
Thank you, Huw! The stencils are from Amazon - the smaller one came with the compressor, I think, the larger crackle one was bought separately. Cheers!
I like it. I wasn't sure about the crackle, but warming and grunging it up saved the day! What brand does do you use?
Thanks, Michael - this was one I had to get used to....I rather liked the black and yellow but it was missing something....I'll get it right one day! The stains I used on this are Chestnut Products Spirit Stains. Cheers!
Hi Stewart, Great job. Where did you get the templates that you used for the patterns? Thanks.
Thank you, Donald! The template came from Amazon but the supply seems to be sold out. Have a search for a crackle template and you might find something similar. Cheers!
Stewart - please don:t change a thing!
Regards
Dennis
Don't worry, Dennis - it's still as it is in the video. I had a colouring workshop today with a chap called Stuart and he left with his own version of this technique.
Save ME I hear, beautiful platter Stewart really like the way the colors look, thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Gary....guess I'll keep it then! Glad you like it. Cheers!
I think it's a Beautiful Platter Stuart! Congratulations on hitting the 5K mark, your work is amazing you've earned every subscriber!
Thank you so much, Steve! Much appreciated!! Cheers!
Hahahaha 🤣🤣 Would you know I was wondering if those were your pajamas just seconds before you said they were? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You have to admire my dedication to get my footage, even if I'd already thought I was finished for the night! Too lazy to get dress again....Cheers!!
I love it..keep it..sell it..don't destroy a work of art like that
Thanks, Todd....it's one of the few pieces that has actually been sold, so don't worry, it still exists!!
👌💕
Thanks, Mary!!
great love but the yellow and black better you must try and refrain your self sometimes lol thank you
Hahaha.....I was saying exactly the same to somebody earlier today... I had another go at trying stick at yellow and black...but just carried on! Next time!!
@@stewartfurini take a stand back or sleep on it lol
Normal service has returned - We've got colour!
Yep, normal for me anyway!
That's lovely but I really liked it before you put the sanding sealer on. However, I am very colourblind so like strong colours and defined borders because I cannot fully appreciate tones and hues so my opinion is pretty worthless as I can't see what the rest of you see.
Best Wishes, Brendan.
Thanks, Brendan - I've done a second version which keeps the strong colours as I waited a few days for the sanding sealer to go on...the stains were properly dry by then. If I get my act together, it'll be the next video I post. Cheers!
That's great Stewart, I'm looking forward to seeing this one.
The red pajama ensemble is quite dashing. Just don’t go outdoors in traffic. As usual you are showing your best in your turning skills. By the way who does your hair?
Hahaha, thanks, Tom! It is always a struggle to make the wood look better than me ;)!!
keep🕵🏻
You've convinced me!
"If I take any notice of them." Ah, brutal honesty, eh? So we don't really wield the power of life or death on this one. Oh well, I probably wouldn't use the power wisely anyway.
Oh, I really like it, by the by. There were a couple of what seemed to be potential stopping points, but this is a fine result. Your lack of self control seems to be working for you. 😎
Cheers, Bill! Of course I take notice of all of you. For me, an earlier stopping point was definitely when it was just yellow and black....will have to revisit that! Long may the lack of self-control reign!
Sorry Stewart, not my cup of tea. Seen others of you that I liked better.
No worries, thanks for commenting though. It's been well received, but I have some reservations about it myself as well. Onto the next piece! Cheers!
