It's a cute little winter bird fluffing up its feathers to stay warm! A group of them sitting on a branch in a snow scene would be perfect for Christmas. 🎄 It's amazing how simple shapes can come alive with eyes and a beak. Thank you for this wonderful turning idea! 😊
Hi Gwynn... A lovely description and yes.. a group of them on a branch would be great...

Very cool Andy! Guys and Gals we all count the same. Congrats on the 10K. I may have to make some of these and add a little spice to them. Take care, Gary
Hi Gary... Thank you so much... Guys.. gals... we have to be so careful these days 🙄 Thank you for your congratulations... I thought that the 10k would never come... I would love to see you make a video on making one of these little guys.. it would be such a fun contrast.. Perhaps a collaboration between yourself and Phil.. Haha... that would be awesome !! Can't wait to see how you would " spice" them up... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Adorable! I love when you make these little fellows. Definitely going to use up my small leftover scrap pieces of wood to make several of these. I just made a Ring Box that I watched you make on one of your previous videos. That was a really Fun project. Thank you… I always enjoy watching and learning from you. 20K is just around the bend. 😊
Hi Normagene... Thank you so much as always for your kind words... I would love to see some pictures of your little birds and the ring box...

Hi Brendon... Thank you so much... I'm glad that you liked it... The spanner trick is really useful... just be careful.. light cuts and don't get the head jammed between the toolrest and the wood... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hello Andy the wood is lovely and it has nice grain. I enjoyed watching you turn your wood and I enjoyed how you explained things to us. The wee bird is magnificent well done. Yor videos are always really interesting and enjoyable. Thank you from Amanda here in wet and cold Scotland. Xxxx
Hi Amanda... Thank you so much as always for your kind words... I'm glad that you liked it and enjoyed the video... I'm sorry to hear about your weather.. I saw on the forecast that it was rough in Scotland... Winter is coming I'm afraid... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy x
Hi Stuart... Thank you... I am in the process of editing a video on making wood wax at the moment.. I will try and do a video on making abrasive paste in the near future... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Gary... This is a fun turn... so simple but add eyes and a beak then suddenly it is a little character... I hope that you will enjoy making yours.. with your own spin of course... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Great job Andy! It reminds me of the little birdy salt and pepper shakers my mom had when I was a kid. Wouldnt be that tough to make them into shakers, I suppose!😎❤👍
Hi Dave... Thank you so much... Haha... we had similar shakers too... Yes .. a little hollowing, a bung in the bottom and a hole at the top and you would have a cute bird shaker.. Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy Good to see you back at the lathe again,neat little project I’m going to have a go at it tomorrow. I just hope it turns out better than the other little guy I did,he ended up hiding behind the photo frame too ashamed to show himself after the not so nice comments made by my wife. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your fast growing channel,stay safe Regards from NZ
What a lovely little project! I would love a closer look at that sharpened spanner though -- seems like a really neat tool. Did you sharpen it on the same grinder you use for your chisels?
Hi Timberwolf... Thank you very much... I hope that you will enjoy making yours... I would love to see a picture... Very exciting to get a new lathe... which lathe have you got... I hope that it serves you well... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Andy! Lovely little bird, non-gender as well I suppose 😉😂 This endless gender discussion seems to have reached even the wood-turning community… Oak is great wood… Could the beak be padouk? I can see red dust on your fingers from the sanding… Anyway, great little fellow, I would probably glue him/her a couple of feathers on the head just for the fun of it 😄 Long time we have not heard any rain hammering down on your workshop roof, enjoy while it lasts 😉 Hope you are all doing well in Cornwall, have a great week! Byeee 👋🏻😉👋🏻 Jude
Hi Jude... I'm really pleased that you liked it... Haha... non-gender... don't get me started... Not quite red enough for Padouk... may have been a bit of Walnut... Perhaps a hat with a feather on it ... I too miss the rain hammering down on the workshop roof.. we have had plenty but just not when I have been filming... I've been really busy lately on various projects.. not woodturning unfortunately... I must try to catch up on replies 🤪 Good thank you 😊 I hope that you and yours are all well and enjoying some clement weather... You have a great week too... Take care Jude ...All the best.....Andy 👋😉👋
