I know nothing about woodturning or woodworking. I'm so pleased that this video appeared in my feed. I found this fascinating, educational and very relaxing to watch. Excellent work!
I love it. It was broken, healed itself, broken again, injured and scarred, twisted and tossed and yet came out a survivor. You've created a biblical Bowl of Job.
That was just fantastic Mike…I love us how you show us, warts and all..even that heart stopping moment when it flew off the lathe!! It’s the sort of ash boll you see that’s been grown on the edge of a field cattle have been kept on for years, so barbed wire put across the tree, and stapled on, until the wood eventually became irritated and grew over the metal, which in turn snapped bits off over time, which “may “be your nails! It exciting when the large hole appeared at the bottom inside, and the amount of muck you poked out was amazing! I’ve seen the liquid sealant before, but never mixed with gold, how stunning! And overall really a superb piece of Art, turned with love, sweat and a headache bless you! My former husband used to enjoy woodturning until his rheumatoid arthritis Spoilt it for him. Our youngest son took it us, and made me some lovely pieces, but now has married and gone into partnership working in civil engineering all over the country so it’s not easy to pin him down again to wood turning…but I will share your video With him and hope it encourages him to pick up the chisels etc. Many thanks for giving such pleasure watching you in creative mode. Loved it and have subscribed! Warmest wishes from North Norfolk! 👍👩🦳👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you for your well-paced approach, calm narration of your thoughts. I was concerned about your safety and I experienced the tension caused by the uncertainty of the turning experience. And thanks for no music. Good job!
I'm irrationally excited that one of the nails managed to make it into the final piece. Some part of my brain is just like "heck yeah, rusty metal bits!"
This is why full vids are the best , to learn how to recover from mishaps , ash is my fave and looks great Mike . I also make planks and beams i scan them first with my metal detector its no fun sharpening a chain with a 40 inch bar , Mike get yourself a pinpointer it will find nails and wire and as we get lots of bullets , a cheap one is about 40 quid but well worth it 👍
The gold burnish/polish was a beautiful touch! I appreciate so much that you finshed it despite the flaws in the wood. It really turned out beautifully and I actually love the hole. lol Well done
as a knife maker i really do appreciate the hidden beauty in wood. i also appreciate when youtube drops wood turning videos into my feed. excellent skills and a fantastic bowl
First time watching, could watch all day. Perfect balance between what you show and when you fast-forward. My brother and son have been turning bowls for years, but never shared the process. Thank you. Couldn't help notice the inverse relationship with throwing pots. Trimming, of course is much the same.
The first time I have joined you in this amazing and stunningly beautiful process. Thank you for sharing with us in such a wood-loving manner. Really appreciated.
I love your approach. As an engineer and turner, one of the most appealing aspects for me is dealing with unexpected issues which can totally change the initial plan for a piece of wood. Please keep inspiring us!
My dad did woodworking as a hobby. We (my bros, sisters and me) were never allowed in his work area when he was working, however we could sit on the steps which lead into his workshop and watch. Watching you work brings back such happy memories. I can still hear the machines and smell the cut wood🥰
I collect the knots ! Wow. I love how they look. Many have many sticks coming out of them. I am totally fascinated by them ! Cool to know you can do things with them. I'm happy to look at them.
What a beautiful result after all those little “difficulties”. Those nails are going to bend my mind for a while yet. I must admit I almost threw my iPad onto my dog, who watches with me, when the bowl flew off the lathe. So glad there was no damage and my dog is safe too. 😊
i love how the burnishing wax gives the Ash that wonderful warm glow, the shape of this bowl is very cute, love it, and the 'mending' of the bark scar enhanced the look of the overall aesthetic .......... super work Mike 🙂
What started as a journey of discovery turned into a journey of repair and recovery. Considering the lovely Bowl produced it was well worth it. I have to admit that when you went through the bottom i shouted at the screen to use resin to plug it. Well done Mike it was a 100% worth it effort. Cheers
Since I watch your videos where you explain nearly every step I understand much better what other woodturners on youtube do and why they do it the way they do. So I benefit a lot of it.
Good on you Mike. That one fought all the way and you took it with strength and humility. Took a deep breath said alright, and worked a beautiful solution. Turned out amazing as always.
Thanks my friend, the one great thing about dealing with problems is that now nothing really phases me, with a bit of though and imagination you can fix just about anything 😃
Beautifully worked bowl. Well done! I said it when I first started watching your videos, but I will repeat it again: I truly appreciate your commitment to safety, and teaching us how to be safe. Thank you again for a wonderful video.
Loved it. At school some 62 yrs ago, the woodwork master let me use the lathe and I made a sugar bowl. It was only because my Dad was a carpenter that Mr Evans let me use the lathe!!!! Mum used it as a sugar bowl and my daughter loves it too. It's become an heirloom 😂
Lovely Mike. I’m glad you experience some of the challenges we all do and are happy to share your thoughts and solutions. As usual, a great project and fantastic result
As enjoyable to watch as ever. Your commentary and explanation , with the odd bit of humour thrown in isoutstanding. Thanks for entertaining me once again.
Beautiful piece! Ash is a delightful wood... Great to see how you recovered this unusual challenge... thank you for sharing your skill... A real pleasure to watch
I don't usually watch turning on a lathe videos, but I stumbled onto this one. It was fascinating to watch the processes you used to overcome the challenges it presented. Beautiful bowl. Thank you for sharing its creation
I really enjoyed watching this . the last time I turned anything on a lathe was 65 years ago in HighSchool . I just acquired an old ShopSmith and am looking forward to practicing once I get my shop put back together.i was glad to see how to work through the problems. Wish me luck.
Hello Mike. That gave you a few challenges, but your solution to each just made the whole bowl even more beautiful. But it also demonstrates just how dangerous it can be, and not to be treated lightly. However, I’m looking forward to your next video - hopefully, without any troubleshooting required!
Gerry Anderson would have been proud, because this was truly an International Rescue ! Love the Ash with gold grain enhancement. Thanks so much for sharing.
"I see light at the end of the tunnel, not a hole in the bottom of the bowl." Made me laugh. 😁 I have to admit, I really enjoyed this episode. The surprising challenges and how you chose to deal with them resulted in a gorgeous piece. Well done, Mike!! ☺️
As ever, great to watch you working and explaining so clearly your thought processes. And a super big thankyou for the flashing light warning, I was able to close my eyes till it finished. Very thoughtful of you.
Always helpful to see how and when the problems surface as well as how you figure out the solutions. A lot of learning for me as a newbie. Lovely result, Mike.
I love everything about this video! The wood carries so much history and character. What a beautiful piece! Also, i thoroughly enjoy your process. I learned new things and I admire the patience you demonstrate. Well done sir!
You succeeded yet again Mike. A real work of art once again. I had an Ash crotch that had inclusions as I turned the outside and |I filled them with red opaque resin for a contrast. As I hollowed out the inside it had even more of an inclusion which I filled with the same colour. Not my best bowl but my son loves the resin/wood combination.
What a lovely first exposure to your work. I've always loved burl wood and things made from it. It's always very special. Although I've never done any lathe work, I truly appreciate watching craftsmen work on a lathe. And I love your finishing idea of buffing the gold into the wood grain. It's truly beautiful. What a lovely piece. May it give someone many years of joy. In fact, generations of joy. That's one of the lovely things about wood. Well-made pieces last, well, not forever, but for a very long time.
That was really good fun to watch and the grain is so interesting, thank you for finishing it and discussing the grain and bark inclusions as you went along. Such a pretty and unique bowl from all your efforts too
I would think that you have every right to be pleased with the final outcome of this project Mike. It is a very beautiful Ash bowl that stretched you a little in some ways but it is good because it allowed you to show the recovery process that you went through to save this piece rather than relegate it to the rubbish bin or fire. Cheers, Don from South Australia.
Hot glue on Cole jaws….Love it! Game changer for me using the jaws in the future. Given the shape and the branch hole, I might have been tempted to turn it thinner and and make it a lamp shade! But I love the way you turned it, and how you fixed the problem. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This was great. I learn a ton about using steady rest, epoxy, patience. I enjoyed watching your turning technique. The whole video was very helpful. Thanks
I was almost shouting resin to you when you first showed the flaw. It was a candidate from the start and I was surprised that you did not go down that route. Great video to watch with its suspense and drama. Well done. I thoroughly enjoyed that and the final bowl was worth all the hassle - even the Holton missile crisis as it shot across the workshop.
I know nothing about woodturning or woodworking. I'm so pleased that this video appeared in my feed. I found this fascinating, educational and very relaxing to watch. Excellent work!
Glad you enjoyed it Mark, thanks 😊
You took the words out of my mouth! I was about to say the same thing.
Wood turning, like pot throwing and knitting, looks like magic to me.
Haha thanks Euan 😀
It is! They are all magic processes!
I love it. It was broken, healed itself, broken again, injured and scarred, twisted and tossed and yet came out a survivor. You've created a biblical Bowl of Job.
Haha thanks Aaron 😃
👏👏👏👏👏👏 very good Aaron! 👍💫👍💝

@ Thanks so much Helen 😁
@@helencheadle5709 Thanks so much Helen, I'm glad you enjoyed watching the creation of this one, all the best and thanks, Mike 😀
Nails and knots and resin spots, that's what great bowls are made of.
Very good! That should have been the title to the video 😃
@jakes9708 I love your rhyme - it's so true 👍 👏👏👏👏
Certainly an improvement on ‘slugs and snails and puppy-dog tails’!
😁👏👏👏
What a beautiful Ash bowl! I love the knots, nails & inclusions, they add character & interest. This tree had a story to tell. 🥰
I totally agree! Thanks! 😀
Thank you for your well-paced approach, calm narration of your thoughts. I was concerned about your safety and I experienced the tension caused by the uncertainty of the turning experience. And thanks for no music. Good job!

as a knife maker i really do appreciate the hidden beauty in wood. i also appreciate when youtube drops wood turning videos into my feed. excellent skills and a fantastic bowl
Thanks so much Leon 😀
I am obsessed I could sit in your workshop and watch all day how wonderful to see its development happen before your eyes x😊
Thank you so much, you would be welcome, as long as you helped me clean up at the end 😄
First time watching, could watch all day. Perfect balance between what you show and when you fast-forward. My brother and son have been turning bowls for years, but never shared the process. Thank you. Couldn't help notice the inverse relationship with throwing pots. Trimming, of course is much the same.
Awesome! Thank you Ellen and welcome 😀
I like that you left the nails - a little of its history in it. lovely piece.
Thanks JB, I think it makes this piece 😃
The first time I have joined you in this amazing and stunningly beautiful process. Thank you for sharing with us in such a wood-loving manner. Really appreciated.
Thanks and welcome Daphne 😀

Haha please apologise to your dog for me 😂
What a beautiful piece, really happy you saved it with some resin
Thank you very much me too 😄
Very intersting, educational, and relaxing. The bowl turned out beautifully.
Glad you enjoyed it Gail 😀
Thank you; It's good to have a wood turning video where it's explained what's going on, the thinking behind it and why. Very good.
Glad you enjoyed it Ken, and thanks 😀
i love how the burnishing wax gives the Ash that wonderful warm glow, the shape of this bowl is very cute, love it, and the 'mending' of the bark scar enhanced the look of the overall aesthetic .......... super work Mike 🙂
Thank you very much Caz 😊
As stated by others, this is why full videos are the best. A beautifully ash bowl. I have made many things with ash but never a bowl.
Thanks! Ash does make for a very nice bowl, beautiful wood to turn 😃
45 minutes sanding! Mike, you've made me a happy man. Thank you!
Haha, you're welcome Tony 😂
What started as a journey of discovery turned into a journey of repair and recovery. Considering the lovely Bowl produced it was well worth it. I have to admit that when you went through the bottom i shouted at the screen to use resin to plug it. Well done Mike it was a 100% worth it effort. Cheers
Thanks Peter, resin was always the best way forward 😁
What an absolutely beautiful bowl. Simple yet complex. Wonderful.
Thanks so much 😊
Since I watch your videos where you explain nearly every step I understand much better what other woodturners on youtube do and why they do it the way they do. So I benefit a lot of it.
Thanks, so glad it helps 😁

Thanks my friend, the one great thing about dealing with problems is that now nothing really phases me, with a bit of though and imagination you can fix just about anything 😃
Really pleased you persevered after the initial set back. What you ended up producing is a lovely, characterful piece. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks 😀
The sign of an artisan is one who can overcome obstacles without compromising the quality of the product. Well done.
Thanks William, I really enjoyed this one 😁
Beautifully worked bowl. Well done! I said it when I first started watching your videos, but I will repeat it again: I truly appreciate your commitment to safety, and teaching us how to be safe. Thank you again for a wonderful video.
You are more than welcome Susannah, being safe is good! 😃
Wow I didn't know that Ash has such a beautiful grain. What a beautiful bowl 👏👏
Thanks Rita, it can be amazing! 😀

Like I always say “discovery is art” and this one provided you with lots of inspiration! Love to watch you process your artistic progressions Mike.
Thanks so much Larry 😃
Lovely Mike. I’m glad you experience some of the challenges we all do and are happy to share your thoughts and solutions. As usual, a great project and fantastic result
Thank you kindly Mike, I'm no different to anyone else, we have have 'issues' from time to time 😃
Loved watching you work this, your patience and love for the wood shows! Thank you!
Thanks so much Robin, I appreciate it 😀
Despite the challenges with the nails and the hole in the bottom, the piece has turned out beautiful. Well done Mike. Cheers
Thanks Rob 😃
Love this one too, Mike. I love to watch you reason through a problem, and the bowl is lovely. I like that crazy grain.
Glad you enjoyed it, the grain is just weird lol 😆
I love wooden bowls, especially beautiful ones like this one.
Thank you very much! 😀
Beautifully done. Always wonderful to see persistence paying off. Thank you! ❤
You're welcome Danielle 😀
So beautiful! I’m glad you didn’t give up on it.
Me too! Many thanks 😀
As enjoyable to watch as ever. Your commentary and explanation , with the odd bit of humour thrown in isoutstanding.
Thanks for entertaining me once again.
Thanks so much Julian, I really appreciate it 😃
So beautiful! What a treasure!
Thanks Betty 😀
It's always a joy to watch you at work just to see what kind of magic you pull out of your hat. Beautiful bowl! 😺
Thanks so much Barbara 😃
Turner out to be a beautiful little bowl. Lovely recovery from what nature threw at you. ❤
Thank you Della 😊
I love what the gold wax does for the ash. It’s so beautiful.
Thanks, it really does work well on this wood 😃
Beautiful piece! Ash is a delightful wood... Great to see how you recovered this unusual challenge... thank you for sharing your skill... A real pleasure to watch
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it 😀
You just about gave me heart failure with this one, Mike! I actually jumped when that thing shot off the lathe...and you didn't even flinch!
😎👍
Haha sorry Kate, and don't worry I flinched inside 😀

Hello Mike. That gave you a few challenges, but your solution to each just made the whole bowl even more beautiful. But it also demonstrates just how dangerous it can be, and not to be treated lightly. However, I’m looking forward to your next video - hopefully, without any troubleshooting required!
Thanks Angela, I've started the next one and so far so good, but it's still early days lol
@@MikeHolton Excellent! Can’t wait!
Love the grain and your explanation of how the different areas of the wood formed. Just beautiful! ❤
Thanks so much ☺️
Absolutely gorgeous! This is a real favorite of mine.
Thank you so much Kirsti 🙂
You did it justice! Well edited video !
Thanks Myriam, I spend a lot of care and time editing my videos, thanks so much for noticing 😀
I love listening to your instruction, introducing us to explanations, problems, and solutions with this piece. It turned out absolutely lovely!
Glad it was helpful Melinda and thanks 😀
Glad there was no damage when the bowl went flying…love the gold wax finish and the deep design of this bowl…nice work Mike…👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Loraine, I recently put down foam zip mats on the floor so it just bounced 😀
Gerry Anderson would have been proud, because this was truly an International Rescue ! Love the Ash with gold grain enhancement. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks and thanks so much for watching 😊
That is a lovely piece!I'm glad one of the nails made it in the final, and it's crazy how you see it on one side but not the other!
Haha I know! That last nail made me so happy, so strange and such a talking point! 😀
What a wonderful story the bowl can now tell ❤
Thanks Judy 😀
"I see light at the end of the tunnel, not a hole in the bottom of the bowl." Made me laugh. 😁
I have to admit, I really enjoyed this episode. The surprising challenges and how you chose to deal with them resulted in a gorgeous piece. Well done, Mike!! ☺️
Thanks so much Cynthia, this was so much fun, I love problem solving and difficulties. And the nail in the wall was just the icing on the cake 😃
As ever, great to watch you working and explaining so clearly your thought processes. And a super big thankyou for the flashing light warning, I was able to close my eyes till it finished. Very thoughtful of you.
You're welcome, when I was editing I thought that it may be a problem so thought I had better do something 🙂
Always helpful to see how and when the problems surface as well as how you figure out the solutions. A lot of learning for me as a newbie. Lovely result, Mike.
Thanks Pete, this is why I will always show the mistakes and misshapes, it helps us all learn 😊
Agree with Aaronneumeyer’s comment 100%- sometimes brokenness can let the light shine through even more!
Completely agree 😀
I watched this sleepy and it really set a gentle tone for bed. It was just right.
Thanks so much, sleep well 😊
Its great to see a good crafts preson at work. Its beautiful again. 🎲
Thank you very much Marcella 😊
Beautiful, just beautiful.
Thank you very much!😁
Beautiful. Thank you for showing us the process! ❤😂
You are so welcome Jenny 😄
You have to enjoy a project that makes you think. That's where new ideas and techniques come from.
Could not agree Paul 😊

Your persistence paid off, Mike. You earned that one. Beautiful piece with lots of character.

I would think that you have every right to be pleased with the final outcome of this project Mike. It is a very beautiful Ash bowl that stretched you a little in some ways but it is good because it allowed you to show the recovery process that you went through to save this piece rather than relegate it to the rubbish bin or fire. Cheers, Don from South Australia.
Thanks Don, I always see projects through to the end, it's by far the best way to learn 😀
Hot glue on Cole jaws….Love it! Game changer for me using the jaws in the future. Given the shape and the branch hole, I might have been tempted to turn it thinner and and make it a lamp shade! But I love the way you turned it, and how you fixed the problem. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Valerie, never made a lampshade, may give it a go 😊
Fascinating work, shows how to correct and not make mistakes. Well done
Thanks John, although it's usually the other way round 😀
Such a beautiful result !
Thank you! 😊
I really enjoy your sharing your creative and problem solving process.
Thank you very much Carlos 😃
I can't resist... totally nailed it despite the shenanigans :)
Haha thanks Tim 🤣
This was great. I learn a ton about using steady rest, epoxy, patience. I enjoyed watching your turning technique. The whole video was very helpful. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it Donald and thanks for watching 😃
Absolutely beautiful! Such a story told by this piece of wood. Now turned into something so wonderful! Thank you so much!❤🕊
Thanks so much, really appreciate it 😀
Absolutely gorgeous! What beautiful patterns revealed. 👍👏👏👏
Thank you Petra 😊
You made it in a beautiful bowl.. “the golden eye”. Great learning project 👌. You ‘nailed’ it perfectly 😇💪
Haha thanks Wendy! 😂😅😃
Nice save, also love the enhanced gold. Love to listen to your calm measured voice while learning from your videos.
Awesome, thank you Elizabeth 😀
Wow Beautiful! ❤
Thank you Melody! 😊
Challenge met and overcome-beautiful ash bowl! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks and thanks for watching Lisa 😃
Haven't been watching for a while but glad to see more wonderful turning ❤
Thank you, good to see you again 😄
Love the gold resin.. perfect for the bowl
Thanks so much Angela😊
I was almost shouting resin to you when you first showed the flaw. It was a candidate from the start and I was surprised that you did not go down that route. Great video to watch with its suspense and drama. Well done. I thoroughly enjoyed that and the final bowl was worth all the hassle - even the Holton missile crisis as it shot across the workshop.
Haha thanks Nick, I love projects like this lol 😀
Great tutorial on salvaging on problem pieces, ash is a beautiful wood, Great job Mike
Cheers Dale, it was certainly worth saving 😃
I appreciate your thought processes Mike!
Glad they are useful 😀
Really interesting what can be made with wood. End result was amazing. 😊😊
Thank you very much! 😊
not the usual relaxing watch as I was gripped waiting for the shocking discovery :D
lovely outcome
Haha thanks Sarah! 😊
As always sir. A fantastic finish to something you have just proved is not easy to do but so rewarding once finished. Cool job man.
Thank you very much! 😊
❤ amazing so clever how you save beautiful wood for prosperity. Well done.
Thank you so much Janet 😀
That should be beautiful and solid!
