Found a log with a weird burned indentation, and decided to make a bird bath, planter, animal feeder, or like incense holder or something... Nine seconds in and what my log looked like is what yours looked like! Feel like I'm on the right path!! Now I need to make burn troughs and bowls for little watering and feeding areas for wildlife now.
It’s funny, I was thinking of doing another burn bowl but as a shallow bird bath! Glad to hear there’s someone else who thinks this would be a good idea. Thanks for watching my video and best of luck with your burn projects!
I like to watch your videos while getting ready for bed - they feel very easygoing. My favorite part of this video was the tip about putting mud on the edge. What a great technique!
Thanks so much for checking it out. I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product too, haha! I’ve got my fingers and my toes crossed that it looks good 🤣
I hope your wife liked it, the bowl looks really cool just like that already. Combined with a hefty piece of wood with a rounded edge this would probably also make a neat mortar and pesttle. I have never tried any of these methods but would starting your bowl from the side (going with the grain i guess?) help with preventing splits?
My wife loved it, even though I showed it to her before I was actually done LOL! I’m hoping to have the final product up on my UA-cam in the coming weeks. 🤞
That is going to look great when it's done. Does the act of burning the log actually help to seal the grain as well as remove material? Kind of like shou sugi ban wood burning helps to seal the surface. Also what finish do you plan on using?
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’ll look good. I think most people who carve wooden bowls would not start with a burn bowl - I simply thought it’d be fun to combine the two projects into one LOL! I’ve never carved a bowl, so this is new ground for me. We’ll see what happens. One thing is for certain: burning the wood hardens it, which made carving tougher than if I’d just started with fresh wood, so if I carve another, that’s what I’ll do.
Hope you get around to that "second video" sometime (couldn't find it on your channel)?! Oh well...there seem to be a few others in the "side list' a little hungrier for subscriptions. "If a job is once begun, never leave it 'til it's done; be the labor great or small, do it well...or not at all."
Thanks for checking out the first video. And apologies for not getting the second one up yet - life has been hectic and I’ve had other priorities. Doing my best to get it up sometime soon.
Hi John, thanks for checking out the video! I had hoped to get Part 2 up soon after this one, but life got in the way and I haven’t yet been able to finish the video. Check back though, it should be up before I start posting my Missinaibi River trip this fall. 👍

Thanks so much for the kind comment! ☺️
neat project. the ridges on the edge will provide some really interesting character to the finished project. Can't wait to see how it turns out!

From one Erik to another, wanted to say thanks for using my music in the outro. Very cool instructional.
Hey Erik, thanks very much for checking out the video, I'm glad you enjoyed it. And thanks for making such great music! Keep it up!
Looks great so far! Can't wait to see how it turns out
Thanks Andy!
Thank you for sharing this video. The burning method is interesting idea of carving. I am excited for the outcome on your part 2.
Thanks for watching! I hope to get Part 2 up soon (it’s taken me far longer than I had planned to get around to it.) Stay tuned!

Interesting process! I remember my grandfather doing something similar
That’s cool! Did he ever explain why he was making the burn bowl?
Big fan of these!

Don’t hyperventilate and get dizzy.
Thanks. I’m stuck with a very big oak stump. This looks like what I should do. And plant plants in it.
Doing this with a big oak stump could be a fun project. Good luck!
Where is part 2?? Would like to see the finish product. 😕😕😕
