    It is so good to watch someone who has such skill and understanding working on a project. Explaining as you go. The proof of your knowledge is watching the sharpness of your tools and techniques to get to pristine crisp final finishes. You are not pressuring or forcing the tools to cut but getting excellent shearing type shavings coming off. And at the end having to use very little sanding. You are one I look to in my own learning process. Thank you for sharing.

    When you mentioned about the fungus creating the spalting it reminded me of something I've always wanted to try. I read an article in an old Australian wood worker magazine my father used to collect, memory's foggy on it but in short they buried a burl in a plastic bag partially filled yogurt enough to cover the whole burl once closed up, and left it buried for so many weeks. That brought out some amazing coloring throughout grain on the bowl in the end.

    Spalting is simple. Introduce the spalt fungus via chips and shavings, create any composting environment. This can be as simple as burying a piece of wood in a woodchip pile and cover it with grass clippings and don't let it get too dry. Green grass clippings will speed up the process faster than anything else. If possible, rotate your wood every 2-4 weeks. Great video. Thanks.

    I’m finding a bunch of dead elm trees on my wooded property. They have all pretty much shed every bit of their bark. Apparently a characteristic of elm. Cross grain bowls show neat almost geometric fine grain moire like patterns. Great firewood and super clean without the bark, but thought to be harder to split.

    Your bowl has handsome figure and shape. I like the natural edge and enjoy turning them when the blanks permit. I have not heard of your "homemade spalting" method and I'll try when I get some green wood. The oil finish looks good on this piece. I'm in rut; I usually use shellac and/or wipe-on polyurethane. I need to try some better oil finish products.

    Nice bowl. I'm assuming that you would have removed the tail stock and rotated the bowl on the temporary mortice to align the high and low points of the natural edge. I'll give that a go as doing it with the full weight on alive centre is a pain to move 1mm. Hopefully my standard jaws should be long enough.

  • @bobmephitis8206

    Great video, as always! Did I understand correctly that the spalting was only from the months you kept it in the bag, or was there some already visible when you were cutting the blanks? The reason I ask is that I have had a hard time getting spalting after processing a log into parts and have relied on leaving longer sections, in the round, outside to get the effect I am looking for. Of course, the problem is that it is very difficult to control (or know) the rate that the fungus is working and avoid letting it go too far.

      This blank was as you see in beginning of the video just cut with chainsaw, and I put it just like that in plastic.... If you have some fungus you can add them in bag as well, should help out.... But its nature process so sometimes we can't really control it.... I have had log go to rot very quick and then from same species it took months and months to get some spalting if any.... So I do this from time to time ,each time slighty different way to see what works....

      @@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Thank you for explaining. I have noticed the same thing where same species, even different sections of the same tree, will spalt and begin to decay at very different rates while stacked next to each other in the yard. I think I will try some inside in bags just to see if I can figure out some of the variables.
      Where I live, we have very limited tree species, and our only real hardwood option is paper birch. I love birch, but it tends to lack character without spalting or some substantial figure.
      Thanks again and peace to you, my brother.

    I wanted to ask if you put the Ellsworth grind on your spindle gouge or just the standard grind TIA

    Can you explain the difference in cut between M2 and M$ steel? Why not use M42 all the time if it keeps an edge longer?

      Nothing wrong with using m42 all the time, especially gouges... They are sharp and stay longer that way.
      However, I don't have m42 scrapers, but usually m2 is better beacuse the burr is easier to roll and its also sharper a bit.
      Again I'll have to one day compare scrapers that way but I have never had issue with m2 cryogenic line from Crown that I use.
      And again price might be an issue for someone.
      But generally I would say that m42 step up the game in woodturning.... Hopefully it helps
