    Wow! What a beautiful bowl. I love the grain patterns in this piece. I also love the finish you put on it. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. 👍🏾

      Thank you for watching. As hard as that wood is, I do love using it. 😍😍

    Awesome bowl, I love the start of the video just ripping into a log. Feel like your saw needs a sharpening, though.
    Good luck on your your tube journey 😉

      Yeah, I have to sharpen both my saws. I thought I’d get that cut out of it, but that wood is super hard, took the edge off it pretty quickly. Thank you, I’ll keep trying. 😘😘

      I was going to say the effort looked similar to my action when turning Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis), like concrete.

      @@That_is_for_me_to_know Yeah, agreed. Red Gum is another hard as nails timber.

    Beautiful bowl! That wood reminds me of walnut but is apparently somewhat harder. Although I've run into some weathered walnut that was hard as nails.

    • @sdfwoodworks
      @sdfwoodworks  Місяць тому

      I’ve not used a lot of walnut, don’t get a lot of it here in Australia. I think it’s like a lot of woods, they get harder as they dry, this stuff just always seems hard. 😍😍

    That’s really nice! Bravo! You got a really good finish on it.
    Would rounding off the corners before putting on the lathe made it easier on you?

    • @sdfwoodworks
      @sdfwoodworks  Місяць тому

      Hi, thank you. Yeah rounding it off probably would’ve helped, but my bandsaw doesn’t like cutting this wood. I could’ve used the chainsaw but I was trying to get it finished so I threw it on the lathe to get it done,

  • @brownsuspenders7793
    @brownsuspenders7793 Місяць тому +1

    I see you have a bandsaw so how come you did not use a circle jig and make your blank round before you started turning it ? Very nice looking bowl. Great shine,

    • @sdfwoodworks
      @sdfwoodworks  Місяць тому

      Yeah, I do have a bandsaw, but unfortunately I haven’t made a circle jig for it as yet. The other minor issue is that for some reason it doesn’t like cutting this wood. I have tried to use it previously on this wood and found that the grain makes the blade wonder off on its own angle. Or it jams the blade. I have even tried with a new blade for the same result. It’s a work in progress. 🤔🤔

    What oil/finish did you use? In the red container?

    • @sdfwoodworks
      @sdfwoodworks  Місяць тому

      That’s sanding sealer. Shellac based, I mix it up and put it in that for ease of use.

    請問表面塗上什麼

    • @sdfwoodworks
      @sdfwoodworks  Місяць тому

      I apply two coats of sanding sealer, then use an abrasive paste and the final coat is a product called Shellawax. It’s made by a company called Ubeaut Polishes.
