Wood Turning Green Wet Wood Thin & Sanding Tips
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 жов 2021
- Turning wet green wood is a lot of fun. But turning it thin and getting it done quickly is even more fun for me. Plus I use a sanding trick to help the process and I think helped keeping the bowl from cracking.
The wood can warp but I think it can enhance the look of some bowls.
I tried Howard Butcher Block Conditioner because I have friends that are very concerned with food safety and they like the Howard Butcher Block Oil.
Tools used: Bowl gouge and Negative Rake Scraper

I love how Cherry darkens as it ages. 👍🇺🇸
Yes it is a very interesting wood. And each type of Cherry tree is different. Thanks for watching.
Gary
Very interesting vlog 😊I was so curious about turning wet wood, I'll be watching more of your videos. Thank you 😊
Thank you Ken. You will be interested in a video coming in a few weeks. Wet oak.
Thanks for watching,

Beautiful popcorn bowl. Cheers mr Gary 👍 💯
Thank you Sony! I tried it out today while my wife and I watched a movie on our big screen.
Take care,
Gary
Another M & M bowl,lol.Love it!
Thank you Leslie, funny thing I just filled it with those Hot Tamale candies! Well actually only about 12, or I would probably sit here and eat the all LOL. But M&M's sounds real good.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Lovely bowl and a Really useful video. Thanks
Enjoy your popcorn.
Thank you Mandy. Happy you enjoyed the video. The popcorn was very good.

Jim I enjoy turning green wood
Yes it is lots of fun for sure. Thanks for watching.
Very nice! Cherry is one of my favorite woods to turn.
Thank you Kent, I have another much bigger piece. Saving that to turn for my brother in law who gave me the wood.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Good job, Gary, explaining your process, the sanding tips, drying and finishing WITHOUT CRACKS! Just amazing, my friend. Good looking useful bowl, too! Thanks for not making us wait months for the second turning! 😊
Phil
Thanks so much Phil! If I had to wait a months to finish it I would probably forget I even started on it. Or I would forget where I put it. That way I could look for it and my tape measure at the same time LOL.
Best for me to keep on it till it is done.
Thanks for watching!
Take care buddy,
Gary
I just turned my first piece of very green walnut from a huge branch that blew down in a recent storm. I'm hoping these tips will work for me!
A very pretty bowl. It looked like nice wood to turn. Good work!
Thank you Rick. Yes it was a dream to turn.

Crazy that it did not crack, I think I’ll try the oil sanding trick, keep those great vids coming
Thank you Mark and I am not worried about all woods cracking when turned thin but Cherry is one of them.

Ok my new friend
Hi that’s a very nice cherry bowl thanks for your video.
Thank you Graham and thanks for watching.
Gary
Beautiful piece. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍❤️
Thank you Wanda I appreciate you watching and commenting,
Gary
Liked the mineral oil idea.
Thank it really does work quite well.
Thanks for watching,

Beautiful piece, I love the look of cherry
Thank you! And Cherry can have all sorts of looks. That is what I like about it.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Hi Gary, that bowl looks cherry!! 😀 great tips buddy, I love Howard finishes! Thanks for sharing! Have a good one!
Thank you Bruce! Good one ...looks cherry LOL. Yea Howard makes some good stuff. I have been testing the bowl all day. Had some popcorn in it and then some of those little red Hot Tamale candies.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 great testing procedure, I love those hot tamales candies… especially with popcorn 🍿 enjoy my friend!
@@JordanWoodwerx looks as those the trick or treaters will loose out this year!
Well we live on a non lighted single lane road and hardly get any trick or treaters. But we have some packed up for them if they do show up. But none of my hot tamales!
Good new ideas Thanks.
Thank you Vernon and thanks for watching.
Gary
Mineral oil, on my things to buy list, thanks Papa!
Thank you Scott and it does come in handy at times. This has become my favorite snack bowl. Good for potato chips or peanuts.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
That little bowl really popped when you put the finish on it. Well done Gary. 👍🏻
Thank you Dave, seeing it while it was really wet I knew it was pretty. Then I had to wait to get the finish on and it was still there.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
Hi Gary, thank's for your video,after seeing it I will try your recipe. 👍
Thank you Jean-Louis, just something else worth doing for some woods.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
That is very nice Gary. good tip on mineral oil and sanding my friend thank you 🙏🏽
Thanks so much Habeeb and thanks for watching,
Gary
Thanks for sharing this, I’ve got some cherry that I think I’ll try this method out with. Thanks!!! ✌️❤️🍻🖖
Thank you Jack and best of luck with the Cherry you have. It is a fun wood to turn.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I actually twice turn all the green wood. I'm going to give this a try too.
Thanks for the explanation.
Thank you Frank, I am sure twice turn is very efficient if you are doing a lot of bowls. I get connected with a turning and not sure if I would be all that excited about getting back on one after letting it sit. But it is good for others especially if they are selling.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 I recognize that problem. When pre-turning, you already determine the basic shape, which can change very differently due to the drying proces. Sometimes it warps terrible. (I don't have to tell you that. You know that of course 🙄) Thank you Gary.
Thanks you very much for the advice like hi said before hi learning something a very time hi watch you turned you are a great teacher
Thanks so much Denis!
wow Very nice bowl and finish!
Thank you Glen. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
Very nice bowl!
Thank you Gary, happy you liked it.
Gary
So you obviously like popcorn, Papa G... a lot! Beautiful turning ❣️👍✌️
Thank you Dwayne, for sure I like popcorn but have not had any for some time. But today I had some in my little bowl.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Agree. Part of a hand-turned wooden bowl is the character, color, cracks n all! I never wait either - nice looking bowl 👍
Thank you Mark. For sure I have a hard time waiting plus turning green wood is so much fun.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thanks again for sharing!!
Thank you Dave and thanks for watching,
Gary
I think I'd have to say that I really enjoy your intricate segmented designs, but I also love when you (and Uncle Phil), allow the wood to 'speak', and review what it wants to be.🕊️☮️✌️
Thank you Dwayne and for sure another glue up coming soon and another one just started today.
But turning a chunk of a tree is very relaxing and rewarding as well.
And Uncle Phil is a master in doing that.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947
Agreed, Papa G.
That came out really nice. Thx for sharing.
Thank you very much.
Cheers,
Gary
Had my share of cracks with wet cherry. will have to try the mineral oil trick. Nice piece and thanks for sharing.
Thank you Tom. I recall coating a piece with mineral oil before sanding but it did help to get some of the sanding done before letting it dry.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thx for the tip with mineral oil and sanding
Thank you for watching Desmond!
Gary
This bowl is very nice. The wood has a lot of character with the different colors. I really like it! Great work! Bravo!
Thanks so much Mary!
Take care,
Gary
Nice! Lately I've been using Butcher Block on the inside and Fed & Wax on the outside. Love the stuff.
Thank you Dave! Those are 2 good choices for the finish.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Glad it didn't crack Cherry is a pretty wood, not seen sanding done like that before looks like a good tip, I have turned green Oak and that can warp but still look good.
Lewis I was happy it was crack free as well. It did help a lot in the sanding because the wood was still very wet. I turned so green Oak a number of years ago and it also warped but still looked great as well.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
.....about as 'natural' as it gets. I love it!
Thank you and you are right. Hard to get much more natural. Thanks for watching,
Gary
Pretty bowl , I like every thing you do. You and Phill our Buddy have really helped me with my turning. Thanks Buddy ❤️
Thank you Tony and I am sure Phil does as well.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
Gonna try it. I turn a lot of wet wood. Interested in seeing the results with what I have. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching Clint! I love turning wet wood and prefer to turn it thin and not have to wait and do a second turning to finish it. Some woods will hardly warp so you would never know. I have a Walnut bowl I turned to 3/16 and it is nice and round. About 11" diameter and has been done for a year and it is still round.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Hi Gary
Always nice to turn green wood 😁
Beautiful video very interesting and informative 👍😉
Take care my friends 🙏
Morgan
Thank you Morgan, it sure is fun to turn now and then.
Thanks for watching buddy,
Gary
We've been in the rain n clouds for about 2wks here in mi.I'm impatient too.i want it done asap.looks good.
We had some pretty bad wind again today but not much rain. Yes the The One and Done method!
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, you made another bowl that is simply beautiful and beautifully simple.
Thank you Crystal and thank you for your description. I was calling is Quick, easy and fun but I like your description better.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary what a nice experiment and a nice bowl. You are correct it will make a nice popcorn bowl but like you not big enough for me.
Thank you Kevin, I did try it for popcorn but had to keep refilling it.
Still works good for other snacks.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Awesome light weight bowl nicely turning green wood first time I have seen, take care Gary.
Thank you Sagar! You take care as well,
Gary
Great job!
Thank you John, I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
Thank You Gary.... Having fun in your shop while the storm is raging outside. Your Monsoon Bowl and I am surprised how quickly (3 to 4 days) you were able to go from wet wood to dry bowl. I am looking forward to next Fridays show (it sounds like it will be very interesting). .... TM
Thank you Tuffy, this was fun not sure if you got any of that Bomb Cyclone but we got the edge of it.
See ya next week!
Gary
Very pretty bowl and a great bunch of tips to deal with green wood, thanks Gary!
Cheers Al
Thanks so much Al. Happy you enjoyed it.
Take care,

Looks great
Very very pretty bowl. Glad you found a way to keep the wood from cracking.
Thank you Judith, it sure seem to work this time.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Awesome grain
Thank you Michael it sure is nice grain. Most things I turn are more art. I am loving this bowl. I use it every day.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
Very nice Gary I like a good green bowl cuts like butter.
Thanks Mark. I agree with how nice it cuts and it is so much fun. I have let some Black Locust sit for 2 years and the longer it sits the harder it gets. I just turned a piece and it was not as bad as I expected.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Cherry is so pretty and turns so easily. I love the idea of wet sanding with mineral oil.
Thank you Carol and it sure does turn nicely. I have seen people use oil to keep the dust down when sanding dry wood but not wet. I would not use it on anything I was going to use lacquer or shellac on though.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Not big enough for your popcorn?!? Now I know we would get along well, Gary. That bowl is barely big enough for my Smarties, my friend!! LOL! That is a really beautiful bowl. I can’t wait for next weeks video! I am really looking forward to winning - I mean entering - your contest. 😂🤣😂🤣 this was another great video, Gary! 👍👍👍 Take care, my friend.
Happy turning,
…..Gord
Thank you Gord, so I put those Hot Tamale candies in it. The extra hot ones and it seemed kind of small for those LOL.
It was a quick easy one but it did turn out to have some real pretty wood in it. This helped me to get next weeks video done. So I decided to start another one that takes a bit of time...you know how that goes.
Thanks for watching my friend and would love to share a bowl of Smarties with you...as long as I can hold the bowl!!!
Take care,
Gary
I have been wondering about turning green wood and found this work very interesting.
Thank you Gary. I sure enjoy turning green wood.
Have fun from another Gary!
Awesome.
Thank you Cal! Where was that salmon caught you are holding?

A danged pretty little turning and I'm looking forward to your surprise next week. Oh yeah, my baby boy lives up in Seattle and said he was darned near washed out to sea by the last set of storms! Thankfully, he can swim quite well.
Thank you Kathleen, very happy you liked it. That Bomb Cyclone that hit the west coast was pretty nasty in places. We did not get it real bad but for a short time it was crazy.
Thanks for watching,

thanks for the mineral oil tip I'll give it a go
Thank you for watching Neil!
Take care,

Really nice
Thank you Jonathan and thanks for watching.

Very beautiful Gary outstanding as always I love Cherrywood can’t wait until next weeks project maybe I’ll get lucky and win it take care and God bless
Thanks you Mike. I do love the Cherry wood as well. I have the video ready to load for this Friday. Best of luck, I do appreciate your support. God bless my friend,
Gary
I like bowls with bark on them. The bowls with a lot of bark are even better. I also like the bowl you turned today. I never knew that mineral oil would help with sanding. I try to learn something new every day.
Thank you Don., I also like some bark on a bowl but this would not have stayed on. It might seem messy but it actually does help using the mineral oil. I doubt I would do it if I was using something besides and oil finish.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Great tip Gary!!, you've taught me so much about turning, thanks so much!
Thank you very much Doug. For sure there are times when sanding this way will make things a lot easier and is the only way to save the piece.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thanks, Gary. As I'm sure I've mentioned before, I just began my wood turning journey. My first project was a set of chopsticks. Purple heart, otherwise plain and entirely serviceable. My second project was a bowl, intended to be about 6"dia. by 4" deep. I was using a piece of what I jokingly called snot pine. It might be oak, it might be maple but it surely is snot pine. Once I got into it it turned out to be punky oak, loaded with worm holes. By the time I ha peeled away the punk it ended up as a saucer about 4"x 1 1/2". I had decided I was on on my last pass with the gouge and would go to the scraper when I got a catch in the corner and the part tore from my chuck in more pieces than even the most creative use of CA could cure. That was it, I was out of wood. SoI grabbed a hand saw, stepped out the door and stopped at the first tree I came to. When I looked it up it turned out to be "speckled alder", about 6" at the base. I took it down, cut four feet of the bottom and have been happily making it into wet chips ever since. Probably need another length after this next weekend. But again, thank you, you gave me some great tips to keep my projects from cracking.
Thank you very much Carson. Sounds like you are on your way and having fun in the process.
Keep at it as it is a hobby that you can do for years and years.
Gary
I love your turnings,and it brings a lot of enjoyment to you and those that watch your skilled and masterful hands at work , creating beautiful and unique art , thanks for sharing your time and talent ,
Thanks so much Roger, yes I do love wood turning and happy you enjoyed this one.

I like wet wood turning also. It is a challenge preventing cracking. My son in law brought me several cherry logs from family land and made 3 live edge bowls as Christmas presents for his family. They loved it. Thx for great videos.
Thank you Rick and I bet those were really pretty bowls. I do love giving them to friends. Especially if the tree came from there place.
Thanks for watching,

Love the shape of the bowl and the Cherry grain is really beautiful. Another fine result. Appreciate you sharing some new sanding techniques!

Good evening, Gary. Great video. I love turning wet wood but don't like waiting for it to dry so I can finish it. Your tips may be helpful in my next wet project. Your cherry made a beautiful bowl. Thumbs up.
Thank you Ray, I think I have only twice turned a bowl a few times. Getting them out a few months later you have to get to know the wood all over. Funny how every piece can turn a little different than another. I think you can keep that flow going just by turning it to size all at once.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Great looking bowl Gary. I don't like waiting either, but I only recently got some green wood to turn. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Joseph, the thing of it is if I put one away for a few months I loose the connection I had with the turning.
I suppose if you were turning to sell it would not matter. But then it would see like work to me.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 I was able to turn a 12" Maple bowl. It was green wood. Turned and sanded, then I applied Tried & True Danish Oil a few times. I did this to see if it would keep it from cracking, my experiment with it. Don't know the moisture content, haven't measured it. Just been weighing it every couple of weeks. It is looking good. I think I will true up the rim at the end. It is measuring 11' x 12" right now. Regards.
@@josephwise485 sounds like a great test. How thin did you turn it and has it warped?
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 It is just under 1/2". Rim is 11" x 12". I keep weighing it to see if it has stabilized.
I use a dogwood bowl I made for my popcorn and the more I use it, the prettier it gets.
For sure. I have an Apple bowl and cherry bowl for popcorn. Gets well seasoned.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
That turned out really nice. I was doing the same turning when I got a catch that loosened my small face plat by bending the screws. Then I realised that I did not bring up the tail stock to support my bowl. Well lesson learned. Thanks Tim
Thank you Charles, I try to use the tail stock support. Even a small wet chunk of wood can be very heavy and out of balance.
Thanks for watching,

Hi Gary! Impressive fir trees, and impressive turning of that wet green cherry 👍🏻 I am surprised by how little it moved in the drying box, and no crack at all 😎 Well done with the sanding, too 👏🏻 Lovely bowl, beautiful wood and surely the popcorn will look great in it, even if not for long 😉 Well done, Gary, take care!
Thank you! Those first trees are basically on our property but years ago the county got an easement for the one lane road we live on. So those trees are very close. w
I was surprised as well that it did not warp all that much. I actually just used it for a little popcorn. I did have to refill it though.

Gorgeous Piece Gary. I love turning green wood and I will be changing the way I sand and finish it now. Never thought to use mineral oil to sand or the butcher block conditioner for a finish.
Thank you. 👍

I'm fairly new to turning (started August 2020) and have only completely finished about 50 bowls to date and have used Howard's Butcher block conditioner on nearly all of them. I love how it brings out the grain in the wood. Thanks for sharing! Stuart
Thank you Stuart. The Howard Butcher Block conditioner is some great stuff. I am still using that bowl and have not had to do anything to the finish like adding a little more.
Thanks for watching,

I'm new to turning and I'm still experimenting with fallen branches in the neighborhood. It's great to see how well green wood can turn out (oh, that's a pun!). 👍
Thank you Allen for watching. Green wood is a lot of fun to turn for sure.
And every fallen branch deserves a TURN on you lathe.
Take care,
Gary
It worked out well. Most people talk about cherry having such a high tendency to crack. You just showed that cherry can be turned wet and dried over a day or two without a bunch of problems. Very nice little bowl. Great job of turning and drying it.
Thank you Doug! I have had good luck turning most woods thin without cracks. But Cherry had me a bit worried.
The very worst wood for turning for has been Plum. Green or dry I expect the cracks.

Hi Gary
Great watching your video on a wet afternoon.
Nice bowl,I love turning wet wood it’s so much more easier than hard dry wood.
Thanks for sharing
Regards
Beautiful Bowl Gary! And thanks for the sanding wet wood tips, those were definitely some tall scary looking trees swaying around your place, it’s not a good feeling when the storms come rolling in, And I bet that was lots of fun on the ATV, I used to go 4 wheeling quite a bit, That’s a cool looking place, Enjoyed the video 👍
Thank you Kimsey. Those trees were swaying a lot more right before I started the video and I did not want to wait for it again because it was raining as well. The trees were pretty tall when we bought our place and 49 years ago and now even taller. This whole area was all big trees before it was developed.
We have spent many trips down to the Oregon dunes, Lots of fun going up the long steep ones. We have not gotten our quads out for a few years now.
Happy you enjoyed it.
