This juniper stump is the biggest thing I've put on my lathe so far.

  • In this house we love the Utah Juniper and wish to celebrate it by attempting to make a display platter in which we keep the unique live edge of the tree front and center!
    Will we find Chatoyancy inside?? I mean, it's pretty obvious just by peeking at the outside, but still, watch and find out!

    You know Justin, I really gotta say, I love that fact that you don’t put background music. I really enjoy listening to the actually sound of the wood turning and carving without and “interruptions” (Aside from you taking ofc 😅). I’ve watched essentially every video of yours and I’m loving them. Keep up the great work!!❤

    The shape of the finished bowl reminds me of a mushroom. You ended up with a really interesting organic look by keeping the live edge.

    What a lovely piece Justin! I really enjoy the way you care so much about the life story of the trees you work with. Each item you craft is, in part, a memorial to a life that you clearly wish to honor. Thank you for sharing with us.

    I was surprised at the warm color I found when I applied finish to a scrap of juniper that I mounted my house numbers on. It really is a beautiful wood and you brought out every ounce of it in your bowl. The growth rings are especially cool, and a nice way to memorialize the life of the tree. Looks like your work is dog approved!

    Tree loving Wisconsinite here! When you make Wisconsin for your wooden map of the US, I think Tamarack Larch is a great candidate! As the Cranberry state, we have a lot of acidic bogs, where cranberries are native- as well as acid loving Tamarack trees, which grow in bogs all across the state. Please consider!

    This one particular video had a lot of silent, almost hypnotic space in between dialogue, where we are inmersed in the wood working process as if we are there. Silently working, watching, softly smiling, a mega dose of exhilaration for all the patience junkies, being a part of turning one expression of life on earth into another as it moves with you now and next on its own accord, motionless, back to it's home as earth. A mirror so damn good you didnt even notice the reflection of one. Didn't know it was all you.
