Ooh delicious walnut, always reminds me of silky toffee. Beautiful turning Phil, I love hearing you think your way through the process. Insightful, bless you, thank you so much.👍🙏☺️
"Not that bottom, this bottom!" ...ooh matron!! 😄
LOL! Thanks Jude! 😊
Another great job of turning. Looks spectacular. The shellac really made this.
Glad you like it, Earl! 😊
Hi Phil... I love that English walnut grain and color. Beautiful little bowl. Well done indeed.
Thank you, Jerry! 😊
The way word band saw blade. Sometimes they have a mind of their own. We all have had that happen. Love the English Walnut. Today was Christmas in February l received a box in the mail containing my Sand-O-Flex and refills. Been on back order for a month. Very excited to get to try it out. Thanks Phil. Dan
Cool, Dan! Enjoy your Sand O Flex! 😃 Where did you get it?
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop ordered it from your guys at supergrit.
@@dt.woodcreations2064 Great! They definitely have the best selection and price but my viewers tend to run them out of stock all the time! Glad you finally got yours! 😃
HI Phil u make me smile when u put ur finishes on the ur piece they just pop up beautiful. weldone
Thanks so much, Manjit! 😃
Had just got my coffee and sat down in my recliner and noticed a new video from you. Had to watch first thing. Beautiful piece ! I live on a farm that's been in the family for 170 some years. There's an old oak tree in the front yard that's over 300 years old but I'm not wanting it to fall anytime soon cause that's were I will be scattered when the time comes 😉 😀. Love your videos
Wow, thank you, Karen! Would love to see a picture of that old Oak tree! 😊
Nice sanding job Phil, good work.
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
11:05 My friend! I'm surprised you took out that center part. I was hoping you would see the opportunity to leave it in. It could have been useful for putting an umbrella, a feather or anything really in to. Nevertheless, a lovely peace of art as usual. Thanks for sharing!
😃
That is a classic! Absolutely beautiful 🤩 👍🏻
Thank you! 😊
I have, I believe, 11 different turning channels that I subscribe to and yours is the most educational and informative. Thank you, Phil. Again, a joy to watch you enjoy your hobby.😊
So nice of you, Hubert, thank you! 😊
Mr Phil is my favorite wood turner on UA-cam, without a doubt. I love his style. I love how he loves the nature of the wood he's working with. I love how he keeps you well informed of his intentions and how he goes about his creative process.
I also simply enjoy his demeanor and his attitude. He makes you feel like you're right there with him, kinda standing next to your grandpa in his workshop when you were a child, watching, listening and learning. That's what brings me back to his channel.
@@lesstiglet1241 That's how I feel about it too, Les. We're all just standing around the lathe shooting the breeze!
I love live edge pieces
Me too! 😃
PHIL you have done it again!
😊
Another beauty Phil! That is a real pretty piece of wood and even better looking bowl. Well done and take care
Thank you! 😊
Nicely done Phil, great finish as usual.
All the best to you.
Regards Jim
Thanks, you too, Jim! 😃
Lovely bowl...love the grain!
Cool, thanks, Carol! 😊
Fantastic job, Phil!
Wes @ Piedra Designs
Thanks, Wes! 😊
Very beautiful bowl Phil!!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Awesome! Thank you! 😃
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop You're welcome Phil!!
Awesome piece!!
Glad you like it, Frank, thank you! 😃
Phil,
That piece came out terrific
That wood has some nice grains in it.
I always enjoy seeing your videos Thanks for sharing your experience 👍😎
Thanks for stopping by, Luie! 😊
So nice 💖
😊
Love it! I have yet to find a piece you make that is not gorgeous.
So kind of you, Kathleen, thank you! 😃
Beautiful work, thank you
Thank you, Shaz! 😊
Looks great
Thanks! 😊
It's a good job you are so far away I'd be visiting just to touch all these wonderful bowls, you never fail to create something so gorgeous and tactile to look at.
Thankyou for sharing Phil 💖
Haha, what a visit that would be, Laura! Touch, touch, touch... 😊
Lovely dish, Phil! Well turned!
Glad you like it, Richard, thank you! 😊
Really nice work, Phil! Always slightly surprises me when you turn something so normal looking, haha, but I feel like you really made the most of the live edge there, sets off the rest of the wood really well, and with the grain not being anything spectacular (though still nice), the contrast does all the work.
Agreed, it's that contrast that keeps me turning the way I do! 😃
Just beautiful Phil. The simple shape is perfect for this wood, and it does indeed glow. ☺️
😊
Very nice piece Phil! What kind of bandsaw do you have? Always enjoy your videos! Thanks!
Thank you, Peggy! 😊 It's a Rikon 10-326.
the good jobs go on for you!!!!!videos like yours are geating hard to find a lot of them are blasting music others are not talking .i dont bother watchung those type of videos later mr phil
Thank you for always being here, Don! 😊
that grain looks really nice.. great job sir..
😊
What bottom ?
LOL! 😊
Does it really make a difference turning it in reverse and sending it I don’t get your messages if you respond back to me
If you don't see my replies, Ken, you won't see this! You need to change your settings on UA-cam. When we turn wood we lay the fibers down away from us. By sanding in reverse, we can pick those fibers up and cut them off resulting in a smoother finish, faster. But, again, you won't see this until you change your settings. 😊
Thank You Phil, Thank You Rick Chapman... That English Walnut looks like it turns nice and easy ? That bark seems to really stick. Another very nice picture perfect turning... I love that thick bark! Until next time Phil.... TM
It did turn quite nicely, Tuffy and yeah, the bark was stuck tight! Glad you like it, my friend, thank you! 😊
That is a totally magnificent piece, Phil. Really like that my friend. Finish on that piece is absolutely perfect. But then, that’s what we’ve come to expect of you, my friend. Well done once again. Thanks for sharing!
Happy turning,
…..Gord
Glad you enjoyed it, Gord. 😊 It was smaller than it should have been because of those errant bandsaw cuts but it turned our pretty well, anyway. Made a few cuts on the bandsaw since and am sooo glad I changed the blade! 😊
Remember when you had to go out and look for wood? Preaching to the choir here about changing the band saw blade. If you are pushing it at all, the blade needs changing.
True enough on both counts, Jeff! 😊
Hi 👋, Phil from Phil, I hope you are safe and well. A lovely looking dish with a great finish on it, A great I territorial on how you accomplish a great peace of ART, I look forward to your next project, a shame about the bandsaw blade , been there, done it and got the T-shirt as they say. Keep up the great work, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN.
I've got a close full of those T-shirts, Phil! 😊
Love the simplicity….subtle shading…beautiful work…
Thank you, Loraine! 😊
Thank you, Rick. 10:55, 11:59. Snort! 🤪 The “spirit of the bowl” face in the bottom (yes, that bottom) does not look very happy. Perhaps it was in winter hibernation and you disturbed it? Guess it just needs some of Gord’s Smarties to stave off its winter hunger (and a warm spot in the house)!
It has the warm spot but it ain't gettin' any Smarties around here! 😊
I love your UA-cam channel I learned so much watching your work
Where did you get your measuring caliper? What size is it?
Thank you very kindly, John! I think I got it from Amazon. It's a Robert Sorby brand and from what I can tell, they don't make them anymore, at least, not exactly the same. They are just like this but I think mine are bigger, maybe 10-12" www.hartvillehardware.com/product/sku-66834?Google&Google+Shopping&GoogleShopping&gclid=Cj0KCQiAutyfBhCMARIsAMgcRJSgw7Xb07t8xJG0vxxy-11AImJpWTWZLgzBK_zdzw2OTPNHaRjbdBIaAopUEALw_wcB
Love the woodpecker holes, wonder why he gave up, really like the walnut beautiful finish. Wish my sand o flex would hurry up and get here, my flappy hand held method hurts sometimes. All the best from Spain Phil, regards Colin
Great point, Colin! 😊
English walnut has its own subtle beauty. You certainly brought that out in this bowl, Phil. Another fine piece! Thanks!
Thank you, Greg! 😊
Bonsoir Phil ! Encore une très belle réalisation ! Ce pivert à une "perceuse " très régulière, plus alignée que la scie à ruban ... ! C'est en tout cas un très joli récipient ! Cordialement, Prenez soin de vous ! Jean-Luc
Je suis contente que ça te plaise, Jean-Luc, merci ! 😃
Another lovely piece Mr Anderson and you make the turning of it look so effortless (I wish I was half as skilled) and you do indeed have a beautiful bottom. 😉 Jane ❤
LOL! Why, thank you, Jane! 😊
Good 👍 one Phil and I really like your comments as well as your turning.thanks for sharing
Thank you, George! 😊
I think those are sapsucker holes, not woodpecker holes. They poke long rows of holes and come back later to slurp up the sap that leaks out, like tapping for maple syrup.
You are probably right! 😊
Is it me, or is the gouge you used inside getting a little short? Actually, I can see it being an advantage in some situations. Hard to get in there with a long reach sometimes.
Haha, not you, Jeff! I've been using two 5/8" gouges lately. That short one is the same one I've used in nearly every video since I started five+ years ago. I bought a couple more for when it gets too short to sharpen and use one of them once in awhile when I need the leverage but I love that original one! 😊
Another beauty. Does the bark ever fall of after after the bowl has been finished for a while?
Thanks, Jeff! I have not experienced that in any of the hundreds of turnings I have done. 😊
What a good thing you didn’t mar that lovely smooth bottom, laughed out loud…..
LOL!
Lovely bowl, Phil! I love the dark bark live edge-I think it would be rather ordinary without it. You sure were producing some nice, long, curly shavings when you were working on it’s beautiful bottom! 😜 Makes me wonder, what do you do with all the shavings you produce? Thank you for another enjoyable video!
There are so many shavings I've taken to just throwing them over the bank out back. The deer enjoy them come nap time, Marcia. 😊
Thanks for the answer Phil. That sounds like a fine use for them! 😊🦌😴
Always look forward to Thursdays and seeing your next beautiful creation. Once again you did not disappoint. Thank you for your work and sharing your skills with us lesser aspiring turners ha ha. All the best sir!
Thank you so much, Eddie! 😊
Looks like the woodpecker s were trying to pre drill the hole for the wood worm screw.
They missed the big red X, Ronnie! 😊
Simple, elegant, beautiful. Wonderful grain. Another well done Phil.
Thank you, Joseph! 😊
Very nice work Phil,do you sell any of your work?
Thank you, Kevin! 😊 I wish I could. There just isn't time for packing and shipping. Maybe one day I'll have a helper.
When you use shellac on a bowl, if it gets wet does that ruin the finish
As long as the "wet" isn't alcohol it'll be fine, Sandra. 😊
Beautiful piece of art, love the color and grain ❤
Thank you, Maddie! 😊
Nicely done Phil! The grain is very interesting and a prime example how much different all types of Walnut can look. I have some English Walnut that came from a walnut orchard and some English Walnut that came from our friends yard. They do not look anything alike. The stuff from the orchard looks a lot like this one of yours.
The finish looks as always.
Not sure about you but we got a lot of snow last night and today. Matter of fact in a few weeks I mention that in my video and wondered if you might have gotten the same. That is if I finish it LOL.
Take care,
Gary
We did not get anywhere near the prediction (only 3”) here on the Strait.
We got just a dusting last night and it's gone, now. Today it's just too dang cold to snow!
I've turned other English Walnut from my wife's family farm in Eastern Washington. Totally different, too!
Thanks, Buddy, take good care and don't over-do! 😊
Well most of the time you end up with more snow that us. My wife canceled her Costco trip so you know it was bad LOL. Think she is going with our daughter in law tomorrow.
Well I had to get it done because Sunday I they say I am really going to be old...but I just don't believe a word they say LOL.
@@ThePapa1947 Completing another trip around the sun? That does not make you old, just a survivor!
@@valeriehenschel1590 dang Valerie and am still laughing after reading that comment.
Thanks I feel like a kid again. Well I have never stopped acting like one!
Absolutely gorgeous Phil.
The sheen on it is magnificent.
Off to make another cup of tea as this one is now cold.
Great video as always Phil.
Take care my friend.
Cheers, Huw
Many thanks, Huw! I hope the tea was hotter second time around! 😊
Super piece Phil. The wood is lovely. Thought we might see more evidence of the wood pecker action than we do. Doesn’t matter. It’s beautiful.
Yeah, I always hate to turn away stuff like that but I just didn't want thick walls on a small piece, Doug. 😊
🙋♂️🏴 Hi Phil I'll take my cue from your title a perfect example. A perfect example of your turning skills. And I loved seeing the woodpecker holes just in the edge of the bark, a great talking point. The finish to the bowl you made was brilliant like a piece of glass. See you next time, I really can't wait Ta Ta.
Thank you so much, John, I'm glad you like it! 😃
Yayy!!! Another Thursday Philday. Another beautiful piece. Glad to see you well.
Yay, thank you! 😊
Very timely Phil. The tree fell after a high wind storm in 2020. The wonderful lady who owned it called me and offered it to me. It was a very special gift. She passed away a couple of weeks ago and now it is even more special. Thank you sir you gave it new life.
Thanks for sending that to Phil.
Bill
Oh, great story, Rick. So sad for her passing, though. I wish she could have seen it. 😊
Hi Phil! Hmmm… Did you see the unmasked Ninja Turtle on the inside?😂😂😂 Do you ever look as something for the first time and it just hits you in the chest? Kind of like taking your breath away? Not that the object is necessarily breathtaking, there’s just something about it that grabs your attention and emotions without warning. That just happened to me when you first showed this finished bowl! It’s quite beautiful, but I wouldn’t call it breathtaking. Yet when I saw it, it was like a huge shock to me. I can only explain it as a strong memory. Memory of what, I couldn’t tell you. As usual, I’m not explaining well. It’s hard to describe a feeling or emotion. (I seem to be making up for lost time with this comment. 😆) It’s raining hard here right now. We need it, but not flash floods and mud slides! Lots of hugs still headed to you! See you next video! 💫💜✨ Roma 🌲💚🌳🦅🐘
I live a very sheltered life, Roma. Not sure I would recognize a masked or un-masked Ninja Turtle, especially in one of my bowls! LOL! I do know you need the rain but, yeah, flash floods and mud slides don't have to be part of the plan. Stay safe my friend! 😊
Another beautiful bowl / dish Phil . Such beautiful grain and finish .
.
Thank you, Jon! 😊
Nice bowl ,dish, tray Phil. As usual you nailed it.
English walnut is a lot lighter than your usual walnut.
Unfortunately walnut is expensive down under in Oz, but our eucalyptus, gums, red cedar, blood woods, jarrah and Mertyls more than compensate for that.
Great instructional video as usual, you are a true master of keeping the bark on. Thanks for sharing Phil.
I do know you guys have a lot of great woods to choose from, Greg! Enjoy! 😃
I am just discovering the incredible art that is wood-turning. Out of curiosity, why do you run the lathe backward and forward when sanding? What is the benefit of that? You do beautiful work, and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for watching, Beth! When we turn wood, we are laying the fibers down, away from us. By sanding in reverse we can pick those fibers up and cut them off resulting in a smoother finish, faster. 😃
Speechless, flummoxed, and bewildered. Looks so darn good I'd use it as a peanut bowl. Thanks Phil.
Glad you enjoyed it, Kersi, thanks! 😃
Beautiful piece, Phil. Love the simplicity and prettiness of it.
I thought of you today, been to my hardwood dealer and picked up some awesome Scottish (local) spalted elm burls... was wondering how much it would cost to ship one over ;)
Cool, thanks! No idea on cost but spalted Elm burls sounds pretty nice, congrats! 😊
Good morning, Phil.
The bark on this piece of English Walnut stayed very tight and looks amazing next to the wood when finished. Your bandsaw story is very familiar. Who wants to change the blade anyway? Surely it will make one more cut. Very nice live edge bowl.
Hahaha, so true, Ray! On my saw, it's really easy to change the blade. It's all the cleaning that has to be done first that keeps me putting it off. Now, I'm so glad it's done! 😊
Top job again Phil, pleased you didn't get your bottoms mixed up. All the best from Lincolnshire UK
LOL! Thanks, Gary! 😊
Good evening, Phil, from Edmonton, Kentucky. Did your area get any precipitation from that big storm? Southcentral KY just got some rain last night.
It has a nice grain even before anything is done with it.
Not much, Anne. A tiny bit of snow last night but it's gone and now it's too cold to snow! 😊
Howdy Phil
Done that been there myself ! Change the blade and felt like a dumbass .and laugh at myself ! .
You got the Rikon 14" right ? It is what I have Like it a lot .
I remember the other piece you turned with al the pecker holes , I called it a pencil holder !
Very pretty wood ... On the inside looks like a cartoon face .. using the 2 little knots as eyes
beautiful turn .
Keep on turnin'
Yeah, I've got the 10-326. I bought it partly because of the tool-less blade change, Bruce. What really keeps me from changing the blade is all the clean up that has to be done, vacuuming, blowing, etc. 10 minute job takes an hour!
I saw the eyes but couldn't tie them to a face. I'll give it another look. Thank you! 😃
Lovely bowl Phil, it looks perfect with your expert turning and finish, well done and thanks!
cheers Al
Thank you, Al! 😊
I really enjoy your live-edge turnings. They always turn out very unique. This is a beautiful bowl. Our pecan trees on the farm in Alabama are full of woodpecker holes just like that English walnut.
Thank you, James! 😊
Hi Phil the English Walnut wood is lovely it's got great grain and it's a nice colour. The live edge bowl is magnificent, you are my favourite masterwoodturner. I can watch you all the time and I enjoy you advicing us on what you do and explaining everything. Love from Amanda xx
Many thanks, Amanda! I look forward to your comments! 😃
Nice bowl, and I'm glad you kept the Woodpecker holes, Woody would be pleased. We don't have Woodpeckers here in NZ, the holes we get come from insect activity.
Oh, interesting, Denise! I guess I thought they were universal. We've got the insects, too! 😊
Sad about errant bandsaw cuts. Could have had more beautiful wood to look at. Love your finishes, warm and inviting. Great job as always. Still in my prayers daily.
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
I have never had the pleasure of working with English walnut. Is it as nice to work with as black walnut? As usual, a wonderful piece! Thanks much!
A little easier to turn than Black Walnut, Robert. 😊
I was gone ice fishing first video. I watched when I got back to civilization was yours pleasure as always, 😊what a beautiful piece.
Welcome back, George! Hope you caught some fish! Thank you for watching! 😃
Hey Phil, I find it coincidentally funny that the very day after I turn a live edge english walnut bowl, you put up one. Either defying some odds, or you secretly have a camera up in my shop. Benn snooping? Cheers!
Great minds, Kevin! 😃
Well done, Phil ! Always a joy to watch, how a piece of wood transforms into a nice bowl. Reminds me of the piece of cherry plum waiting on my lathe... got to go to my shop after breakfast. Chees Stefan
Get to it, Stefan! 😊
What a lovely bowl. You have inspired me and now I’m producing live edge bowls. I do wonder how you keep your finger nails looking so good, though, I catch mine ever single day and rarely leave my workshop without drawing blood 🌞
Blood is just part of the game, Ray! 😊
A superb bowl Phil, right up there with your best. Love the grain of this English Walnut, it certainly does have a subtle beauty about it. Always such a pleasure to watch & listen to you as you work your way through a piece. Stay warm & well my friend & thanks for sharing. Don from South Aust.
It has just started to warm up a bit, Don. Looking forward to longer times in the shop! Thank you, my friend! 😃
As always, great job! Glad you kept some of the woodpecker holes. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks, Reuben, will do!
another beautiful piece Phil. We have a very simillar wood here called White Walnut, or Butternut, I've worked on a few pieces made of Butternut.
I have a video called Suck It Up Butternut, the only Butternut turning I have done, Sheldon. 😊
Nice job Phil. It would have been Legend if you had used one of the Woodpecker holes for your woodworm screw. A woodturning first!
LOL!
Loving the lovely gifts the woodpecker left on this piece 😊.
Another great bowl and can’t beat a bit of English walnut
Thank you, Mark! 😃
Nice job Phil I absolutely love the finish on this piece! The wood pecker holes are a plus to bad you couldn't save more of them!
I told you that my old lathe was starting to get loose in the headstock main shaft well here I sit waiting for new bushings for the poor old thing its 83 years old and I have replaced the once before 30 year's ago so I can't cry to much I guess its seen a lot of turning's in 30years
Happy wood turning to you Phil and all your viewers!👍
Here's to a fast delivery, Jon! 😊
I do like this dish! I must have a go at thiis style of bowl: Half log, with live edge.
I have some interesting logs lurking in my garage. One of them could be a prime candidate! :D
It's life changing, Stephanie. Once you get a few of these natural turnings under your belt, it's hard to go back to plain round bowls. Those scare me! 😊
I hope all is well with you Phil. Another great piece. I tried mixing alittle sanding sealer and schelac together the other day. They didn't mix well. It's like it curded with separation. I don't know why. 😕. Anyway I hope I see you again next Thursday. Besafe I think you guys are getting alot of snow
Thanks, Albert! We got just a dusting of snow. All gone now and too cold to snow! 😊
I watched a guy turn a wing bowl just like yours. I was yelling at the guy please don’t turn the live edge away but he didn’t hear me. He turned it away ☹️. I love this bowl you have turned. I noticed the grain is very nice on the inside of the bowl. As always Phil another lovely turning.
Thanks for the show.
Joel
Thank you very much, Joel! 😊
Another nice piece Phil. It seems as though that wood is easier to work with than some of the other wood you sometimes work with. You removed most of the bark which resulted in a nice dark line highlight. Please keep ‘em coming’!
Cosmo from Billerica, Ma.
I like that dark line too, Cosmo, thanks! 😊
Good looking turning Phil as always. Really look forward to seeing you on Thursday evening here.
Keep on keeping on my friend.
Thanks 👍 😊
Usually have trouble waiting for Thursdays, another great piece.
So kind of you, Monte, thank you! 😃
I love walnut and you certainly turned a gorgeous bowl with this piece!!! Take care of yourself and have a good weekend. 🥰
Thanks, Mary, you too! 😊
with your sanding drill going that fast and the lathe going that fast, what's it matter if you go in reverse? Is there a benefit? Does it get any smoother? My lathe doesn't go in reverse.
When we turn wood, Dennis, we are laying down the fibers, away from us. By sanding in reverse, we can lift those fibers up and cut them off resulting in a smoother finish, faster. You can stand on the back side of your lathe to accomplish the same thing. 😊
Another really nice turning Phil, the shape and finish are great. Does English Walnut have the same distinct odor that American walnut has? If so, I bet the shop smelled wonderful while you were turning this.
I did not notice any odor, Mark but that might be old age! 😊
Hi Phil,love your videos I’m always amazed at the finish you achieve.do you buy or make the foam pads on your sander.
Thanjks, Larry! I buy them from Craft Supplies online. 😃
Very nice Sir, I really do enjoy watching you work. keep on turning , and thank you very much for sharing.
Thank you very much! 😊
Phil ,do you dry your wood after you cut your blanks? And do you use a moisture gage? We're going to move up north in the near future and one of the first things I'm going to do is cut some black walnut trees for a friend... and want to make some things with it...
Nearly everything I turn is dry, Donscott. If I suspect it's wet, I'll use a moisture gauge. Looking for around 10% MC.
Before you removed the center of this bowl I immediately thought of a walnut holding bowl and the center hole for nut picks. 😄
Yeah, that comes up a lot while turning, Vicki. So far I have only succumbed one time! 😊
