River Birch 👀 BUBBLE TOP 👀 Hollow Form! - Wood Turning
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 чер 2024
- I thought I was going to turn an ordinary natural edge bowl. As I turned the piece, I saw a more interesting form developing. It was a whole lot more work but I'm really loving the end result! Finished in shellac.

Phil, I have been making my way through your back catalog, and I am thrilled to see you're still turning. You've likely heard it a thousand times, but your channel is great. Your attitude and enthusiasm are infectious. You're the Bob Ross of woodturning. Be well and have a great new year.
Wow, thanks, Nathan! 😊
So glad you heard and went along with our suggestion. Another beautiful piece that you gave me a heart attack while making.
Haha, thank you, Mark! 😃
I love it. This would have been pretty uninteresting as a regular bowl, but as a "bubble bowl" it really shows off the wonderful texture and colors of the wood!
Agreed, Karl, thanks! 😊
The hollow form was an excellent choice. To me, it looks like a box turtle.
😃
Thank You Phil, Thank You Dave at Calmwood Creations.... Really NEAT-O turning today Phil!!! I enjoyed a LOT...Breaking out your Goose neck chisel, doing some undercutting was a treat and the end results were great!!! I really like this one. Until next Thursday... TM
Next Thursdays is in the books, Tuffy! Glad you enjoyed this one, my friend, thank you! 😊
It's about time you did something different. Good to see something that challenged your mind. Love to see this. Keep up with the different things that shows your still thinking . Great turning!
Appreciate it, Mark! 😊
That hollow form has a lot of character
😃
Доброго времени суток, Фил. Когда, я увидел Вашу заготовку, я подумал:-"Фил повторяется". Но нет. Вы никогда не повторяетесь. У Вас каждый раз новое изделие. Мне кажется, я бы не взялся за такую заготовку. Огромный старый сучок, внушительная трещина, но это Вас не пугает. Сделали отличный кувшин. После Вашего видео мне самому не страшно браться за такие заготовки. Спасибо за видео, спасибо за науку.
Я так рада, что ты примешь вызов! Это может быть очень полезно. Спасибо! 😊
It sort of reminds me of a turtle shell. I can also just imagine a bird family loving to nest in it while it hangs vertically somewhere. They could show off the "open floor" plan to all their friends. 😂 This one is really nice Phil. I think you did a great job.
Thank you, Marjie! 😊
A neighbor gave me a pile of river birch I stored on the lower deck for several months. When I finally got back to it I found some highly patterned spalting in the wood, best Ive ever seen. Maybe one day you will luck onto some.
Sounds great, Gary! 😊
I am so glad you went with hollow form on this. So much beauty in the top! Wonderful job, such a joy to watch.
Glad you like it, thank you! 😊
I had to circle back to catch this one and man am I glad I did! This is in my top 3 favorites you've ever made. ❤
I've dubbed it the "Eye-Bowl".😁
It's a true beauty.
Ha, cool, name, thanks! 😃
Boy!! That turned out great Phil! I was skeptical at first. Lots of patience and TLC to get that one to the end in one piece. Well done, Phil!
Thank you, Scott! 😊
Big ole turtle shell. Lovin it. 💜🙏
Yup! 😃
thank you Phil ! and thank you Dave.
😊
Love the bubble bowl. Glad you saved the compression grain, Phil.
Thanks, Laura! 😊
It looks like a turtle. Always a pleasure to watch you work and make something out of fire wood.
Thank you, Niels! 😊
Beautiful hollow form, Phil. 😊😊 and you can’t go wrong with the number one hollower. 😊😊
Thank you! 😃
I love it so much!! I was screaming "hollow form!" Lol😅 You clearly heard me Phil! Thats just beautiful. And as far as usefullness, a shorter boquet or just a potpourri holder! I would love for that to be on display in my home. Thanks Phil!
Thank you, I definitely heard you! 😊
Its amazing what you can make out of what anybody else would have just thrown in the firewood pile. Great job.
Thank you, Jacque! 😊
The Bubbleisious bowl... Love it
Haha, I like that! 😊
Yay, it’s a Phil night. Just right for winding down to, this side of the pond.
Glad you decided to hollow it out! Like a little spaceship - trying to take off!
Ha, yeah, I guess it does look a little like that! 😃
HOLLOW IT PHILL!!
I'm on it! 😊
Looks like a bowl made from a turtle 🐢 shell. I like that you saved the compression grain.
Turtle is a popular comment, Rick and I didn't even see it but I do now! 😊
Not at all what I was expecting when you were showing the wood before turning. Love your surprises!! It's beautiful and interesting! What more can you ask from an art piece. 🤷♂. Cheers, Rick
Thank you, Rick! 😃 Surprised me, too!
Thank you, Phil. Beautiful piece.
😊
Looks like a Turtle very warm feeling.
😊
Very good result from an ordinary lump ot wood. Well done, Phil!
Thank you, Richard! 😃

Beautiful creation Phil. I really enjoy watching your work and seeing your positive attitude. I always get a laugh out of the way you talk to us like we are there with you. Again you do Beautiful work.

Thank you, Scott! 😊
Howdy Phil from Lincolnshire UK 🇬🇧
Howdy waaay over there! 😃
I really like the compression marks too. Glad things turned out well for you on this project.
😊
Nice save on taking the nub off. Haven’t see you move that fast to shut it down. I really like this turning. Just a cool looking piece of art. I would place it on a shelf to enjoy. The compression grain is very unique. I like it.
Thanks for the show.
Joel
Yeah, I should have stopped when I noticed half the nub missing, dang it! Thanks, Joel! 😊
I would call it just beautiful Phil, I love the design and finish. Thank you. Graham UK
Cool, thank you, Graham! 😊
Kinda looks like a turtle shell hollowed out!! Beautiful bowl Phil! 😎👍🏻🥃🇺🇸
Thanks, Michael! 😊
I’m with you, Phil! I enjoy looking at things that are different and interesting! This qualifies! Thanks for this!
Cool, thanks, Kelly! 😃
❤I really love this bowl. I can imagine some pretty stones in there❤
Oh, nice, thanks, Audie! 😊
Turtle shell bowl!
😃
Hi Phil. I think it looks rather like a square home. Hanging on a wall with a stuffed toy square peaking out .
😃
I glad you kept the compression wood on the top p of this piece of art. It's absolutely beautiful.
Thank you, Jean, I'm glad you like it! 😊
Hi 👋, Phil from Phil, you nearly popped the bubble, right at the end, The compression , shell effect, linenfold, waterfall, quilted , feature looks amazing, I turned a very large winged bowl 70cm. X 46cm for somebody as a present 2- 3 months ago, I ended up hand carving, out the wings, sides had compression/quilted ,in the grain, great, looking piece of art, Phil, well done, luckily you caught it in the Nick of time,
I wish you and your family, , all who watches a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year , 🥳, Phil from the moulin France ,
Thank you, Phil, Merry Christmas! 😊
Glad you chose to keep the bark and natural grain.
😊
Oh boy did you ever make the right choice on this one Phil! But your well tuned eagle eyes were not going to miss the beauty on the top half. Simply amazing looking Especial the compression grain WOW.
Hard to improve on what nature left on the top side.
So cool and I really love it.
Now to dig through my pile where I know there is a piece of River Birch.
I am afraid it will have to sit and wait. Hope it is not too long.
Take care,
Gary
I've got more of this if you're unsuccessful in your search..... I do know your address. 😉😁
Thank you, buddy! Yeah, I dang near turned all that away! Thank goodness I had just got a cup of coffee and was just standing there, studying it. Merry Christmas, my friend! 😃
I know when I get it flipper around I am thinking time to get rid of all that wood. Thank goodness for coffee LOL
Merry Christmas my friend,
Gary
Really like the top on this one. Nature rules. Nice job Phil..
Thanks, Allen! 😊
Another gorgeous piece Phil. Your finish really makes the burl pop.
Thanks for sharing this video. 👍
Thanks, Carl! 😊
I love it, you always manage to turn an ugly ducking into a swan, that compression adds to it’s beauty . Merry Christmas and thank you once again .🎄
Thank you, Bev, Merry Christmas! 😊

Larva Bowl - looks like an erupting volcano😜
Yes, it does look like that too, Jim! 😊
Nice work of art sir. The profile turned out great, a beautiful piece indeed. I thought it was going to fly away at the end. Thanks for the post, enjoyed it a lot.🌿 🛸🛸🛸🛸🛸
Thank you, Rob! 😊
If it had a spout, it would work as a Genie flask. Love the art turning. Thank you.
Thanks, Robert! 😊
Fantastic outcome - definitely worth the time it took
Thank you, Bob! 😊
Enjoyed the video. I was glad you decided to undercut the inside. As a side note, I watched one of your older videos where you gave a tour of your shop and found out that we are almost neighbors. I live in north Lake Tapps. (Your privacy will be respected.)
Cool, thanks for telling me that, Steven! I know people watch from all over the world but I've always been curious if anyone around here watches! Howdy, neighbor! 😃
thanks for posting, just what was needed. An uplifting video with a happy ending! Love the bowl. Hollow form is artwork indeed. cheers.
Thank you, I'm glad it helped! 😊
That turned out beautifully. Thanks
Thank you, Garth! 😊
That turned out real pretty! Good job Phil!
😊
Reminds me of a little kayak. A river birch kayak. Cheers Phil!
Thank you, Anita! 😊
That is top notch, I really love the shape and the fact you left the compression grain there. Great work sir.
Cool, thank you, Dale! 😊
Phil thats beautiful well done
If you put a little tea light candle inside it Phil I bet the grains and shadows inside there will look amazing phil
Oh, good idea, Malcolm! I do have some small battery LED lights that would probably do the trick. 😊
Beautiful bubble bowl, Phil ! Thank you for opening the audiences eyes for the natural beauty of the wood. The compression grain is defenitely gorgeous ! Greetings and a happy new years celebration- hope you are having some good friends at your place to welcome 2024 ! Cheers Stefan
Many thanks, Stefan! 😊
Nice bowl ! I think it was smart to keep the compression grain on the top , it’s what everyone is going to look at !
😊
With a handle it could be Aladdin's Lamp. Or a Sea shell. Really cool. Don't worry about nicks. At my age and yours, we all have a few nicks and that wood is much older than any of us.
True enough, Jeff, thanks! 😊
I love it!! I can picture it hanging on the wall with racoons or birds peeping out if it. Great job.
Haha, sounds cool, Sue! 😊
Love it Phil - beautiful bowl - great to watch!
Thank you! 😊
That came out great I love the compression grain, I think that really makes it unique!
I think so too! Thank you! 😊
Beautiful. Has a boat shape to it.
😊
That turned out really cool ...
😊
Hi Phil this River Birch piece of wood is gorgeous I really love the grain in it. I like the history of this piece of wood. You certainly are a masterwoodturner and a talented craftsman, I like how you come up with what to turn tne piece of wood into. This bubble bowl is magnificent and unique well done. Take care of yourself from Amanda xx
Thank you so much, Amanda! Have a great weekend! 😊
If I had to turn wood that didn't have a crack in it I wouldn't be turning much at all. I wish I had your vision because I have a couple of pieces that I really don't know what to do with. Nice project Phil!
Mount'em up and turn'em, David! Don't spend too much time thinking about it, just get to it! 😊
Such a cool looking piece of wood to make the bubble bowl from
Yeah, it worked out really well! 😊
Beautiful hollow form.
Thank you, Dianne! 😃
Beautiful Bubble Bowl! 😊
Thanks, Maria! 😊
Love the grain. Art pieces are more fun anyway.
Totally agree! 😊
Nice “turtle shell “ !!
😊
What an interesting piece! Well done!
Glad you like it! 😊
Nice as always. You say a bubble bowl, i think it looks like a turtle!
It does! 😊
Absolutely gorgeous...love the top!
Cool, me too, thanks, Carol! 😊
Amazingly gorgeous.
Thank you! 😊
Really great Phil 👍 Loving this bowl ❤️
Thank you very much, Karen! 😊
Looks great. Another change of plans that turned out great!!!
I think so too! 😊
This is true art. I love it!
Thanks, Glen! 😊
Beautiful hollow form!
Thank you, Madonna! 😊
I don't think that I'd call it a bubble bowl. I'd just calll it lovely! Merry Christmas, my friend!
Thank you, Kathleen, Merry Christmas! 😊
That turned out fantastic! It reminds me of a turtle shell. I make turtles out of concrete with a hold of the top for a plant and that would be gorgeous with a plant sit inside of it. I like that a lot great job.
I like the plant idea, Lynda, thank you! 😊
Another very nice project. Very entertaining video.
😊
I’m calling it the turtle bowl. I wish I could feel it to appreciate it more. Always a treat watching you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 🥰
Thank you so much, Vickie and the same for you! 😊
Reminds me of a turtle (minus the hole)!
Well done, Phil!
😊
Bubble Bowl looks like a Buffalo Eye. Compression Rings complement the eye features. Beautiful turning. Happy Holidays
Thank you! 😊
