Perfection In The Midst Of Confusion! - Wood Turning
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- I really didn't have a good idea of how to turn this piece so just decided to let it decide for itself. I ended up with a surprise winged bowl! I decided to keep the bowl part itself simple so it would blend into the sharp edges of the four sides. I think it works! Finished in shellac.

An angry bowl from the soft spoken Woodturner. Gotta love it!
Haha, thanks, Victor! 😃
The wood spoke, you listened. Very nice, Phil. Another Thursday evening in the books. Thank you.
Thank, Hubert! 😃
Phil, it's a gorgeous piece! People shouldn't criticize...they should look at the beauty of the creation you have made from the odd piece of wood that was given to you!
It doesn't bother me, Carol, but thank you! 😃
Confusion till near perfection seems to be your M,O. Very nicely done. One of my favourite turners to sip a coffee and watch. Blessings..
😃
Sometimes I think your head and hands are not on the same page!
"Recess no tennon!"
Beautiful wood and beautiful work as always! 🤣👍🥃🇺🇸
Thank you, Kathleen! 😃
Once again Phil you have taken an oddly shaped piece of wood and made something beautiful.
I'm glad you like it, Jean, thank you! 😃
I love this one. I like a wing bowl as it uses the whole log and shows off all aspects if the grain and nature. Top job
Thank you very much! 😊
It's Grandpa's Soup and Cereal Bowl. Been around a lot. Seen, lived, and battled life. Danced to the joys of life. Yep, it's a beautiful soup bowl. Nice!
Thank you, Kersi! 😃
Wood has a mind of its own. It knows what it wants to be. Turned out beautiful
😃
It seems the most awkward pieces of wood become the most beautiful. Oh and obviously the woodturner has a hand in that😉. You won another battle today Phil.
Thanks, Mark! 😃
Stunning, Maestro. My heart may have skipped a beat when the gouge skated on the top! Your control is incredible! I'd have left a half spiral... Bravo sir!
Jay
Yeah, I hate when that happens! 😃
As soon as you started turning away all the bark I thought your evil twin had taken over, could this be Phil? I asked myself. But all was not lost and the good Phil showed up and saved the day. Nice bowl, unusual and finished to perfection. Lovely job, good Phil.
Thank you, Colin, I'm glad you like it! 😃
My old carpentry teacher used to call wood like that "mule wood" - as grumpy and stubborn as a mule. Love the bowl. "Perfection In The Midst Of Confusion" - I like it!
Cool, thanks, Andrew! 😃
I find a lot of my turnings are loved or hated by different people. So I turn how I like and leave it to the others to love or hate. weirder shape for me is sometimes better, in my mind anyway. Yet again a lovely bowl
Thanks, Max! 😃
It's very pretty. The shape is so much better than a boring round bowl. I get annoyed when turners take an interesting shaped piece and turn it into a boring round bowl. But then I know I can come here and see you do your magic, and then I feel better. Beautiful wood, gorgeous features.
Thank you very much, Karen! 😃
Another master piece from our Maater Phil. One of my favorites.
Cool, glad you like it, David, thank you! 😊
Your bowl design brought out the beauty of the red elm and may I add that it looks smooth as silk! 😊
Thank you, Ross! 😃
I just love your bowl. Just prior to finding yours we watched a woman turn a red elm bowl. It is such beautiful wood. Wondering if you could do me a favour. On your next you tube would you tell my brother John Safety, Safety Safety. He didn't wait for the wood to stop turning and it hit his hand and cut his finger. 5 stitches later. It wasn't that bad but it will be a good lesson and a laugh. Thanks. My family and I love to watch you create beautiful wood turnings. Cathy
Too late for the next video, Cathy but I will try very hard to remind John about safety. Boy, how will I ever remember that I don't know but I'll try! 😃
It's amazing what a polished piece of firewood can look like. I love it.
😃
Beauty and order from chaos. I love the swirling circles inside the bowl.
😃
I would proudly display apples 🍎 🍏 in that bowl! It’s beautiful!!
Cool, thanks, Leona! 😊
What I love about turning is that each piece I turn is unique! I let each piece determine its own outcome.
😊
Crotch wood always has such wonderful gifts! And the wings are perfect Phil. Thank you for sharing such a great turn!
And thank YOU, Danella, for watching! 😃
Phil,
Quit second guessing yourself! It’s wonderful.
Keep the aspidistra flying!
God bless,
Paul
😃
UNUSUAL(ly) beautiful bowl. You know how make that "angry wood" come around to you way of thinking! Thanks again for sharing Phil.
Keep on keeping on my friend.
Thank you, Bob! 😃
Nice to see unusual art pieces they give more than a stock wooden bowl top turning again Phil can't wait for the next one
Thank you, Gregg! 😃
Great job Phil. Now I know why my Father loved working with elm so much.
😃
Phil!
You did it again! you made all the anger run out of this piece
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Haha, thanks, Luie! 😃
It looks like a winged crotch bowl. a beautiful one at that. A pleasure as always.😊
😃
What's great about your videos is that you have a record of what you made, how you made it and why you made it that way! We love the fact that you take what others would put into firewood and turn them into beautiful works of art!
Thank you, Bob! 😃
Good evening, Phil.
The bowl is beautiful, silky smooth. Thank you for the great video.
Thanks, Ray! 😃
Phil you sure have a talent to take the ugly out of a chunk of wood and make it super gorgeous 😊
Thanks, Matthew! 😃
I love the shape. Something for everyone. Live edge, square edge whatchmacallit. Great job
😃
Beautifully crafted. I imagine how the wood talked to you. Alabama loves your work.
Washington loves your comment, Bobby! 😃
Cranky grain always looks great after a good finish is applied but it's murder to get it to that stage. Thanks Phil, brilliant.
😃
the wood is gorgeous -- I personally like the odd shaped bowls like this one
Thanks, Lynda, me too! 😃
Hi Phil...
Phil the wood therapist .. turning an angry piece of wood into a well rounded mellow work of art...beautiful...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Haha, that's DR. wood therapist! LOL! Thanks for the fun comment this morning, Andy, put a smile on my face! 😃
Amazing bowl Phil. Looks like something everyone would want to have on their table. Thanks again for sharing with your UA-cam family
Thanks, Doug! 😊
I love winged Bowls! Another gorgeous piece of art
Cool, thank you, Tina!
Imperfectly perfect.... Great job Phil, always love your videos. Keep smiling
Thank you, Richelle! 😃
You're my inspiration, honestly! I love your take on live edge, and the beauty in the natural aspect. Thank You for being such an inspiration! 😘
That is beautiful. Red elm? Man, that looks good. Even better with your careful application of your skills. Excellent Phil!
Thank you, Steve! 😃
I love watching your channel. Your projects are never boring.👍
Thank you, Sue! 😃
Always enjoy your videos Phil, what I say is perfection is imperfection.
There ya go, Doug! 😃
Great piece. I watched another turner turn a piece of elm last night. That is a beautiful wood. Excellent work on a beautiful bowl. Thank you Phil.
Thanks, Doug! 😃
Golly gee Phill , that's a lovely job, the plain bowl section really makes it for me, that is a design type that I will try, thank you for sharing your ability and design ideas.
Thank you, Selwyn! 😃
Phil, you picked a great title for your piece.😊👍
Thank you, Mychal! 😃
Love the shape and the unintentional design, that is some really nice looking wood, I often sit in my shed staring at the piece of wood I’m intending to turn and the longer I look at it the more confused I become and in the end the wood decides, so I love the title of this video. Thanks for sharing.
All the best to you.
Regards Jim
Thank you, Jim! 😃
Of course silky!! It does look soft and silky.... in an angry way 😁. Another very fine bowl-like piece of art. I agree that people will want to touch it, and will also ask themselves, what the heck was he thinking? I believe you were thinking "let the wood decide!" Looks great Phil. Cheers, Rick
Haha, thanks, Rick! 😃
Well Phil... i don't think i've ever heard you get tongue-tied before like in the beginning of the video!😂 you've done it again! Another beauty!
LOL! I usually edit it out, Stacey! 😃
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop 🤣🤣🤣😊
That's beautiful, Phil. It's one of those pieces you could also stand on its side as a work of art (work of Phil).
Bill
Thanks, Bill! 😃
Phil turn a perfectly round bowl? Not gonna happen! And thank goodness! Your videos are like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get! I think it's beautiful, that red elm is spectacular. Thank you for continuing to entertain us all with your amazing works of art. 😊
Thank you, Gwynn! 😃
You got that right
Another wonderful looking none round bowl. Love the shape of it, and the finish on it. Great job Phil 👍.
Thank you, Scott! 😃
Another beauty Phil. A beautiful testament to your wonderful imagination.
Thank you, Jerry! 😃
Well Phil, you know what the commercial says: Red Bowl gives you wings!
LOL!
Nice bowl Phil. That wood is beautiful. Winged bowls are great, gives you something to hang onto.
Yes, it's a pleasure to pick them up, Allen. Thank you! 😃
Another "carressable" bowl. Nice work Phil.
Thank you, Scott! 😃
The wood is beautiful Phil, and you have done it justice. Brilliant
Thank you, Kevin! 😃
Love it. Turning crotch pieces always gives amazing results. Good video, pretty winged bowl.
Thank you, Ken! 😊
Thanks Phil for reminding me its Thursday! Beautiful piece of confusion my friend!
😃
La perfection au milieu de la confusion : Phil je crois qu'en réalité, sans rien dévoiler, vous êtes en train de faire une thèse sur la théorie du chaos en tournage lol. J'ai adoré aussi quand vous avez dit "Je n'aime pas détourner du bois parfaitement bon pour obtenir un design : c'est dire, entre autres, tout le respect que vous avez pour le bois et votre passion : bravo !
Bravo encore, comme souvent, d'avoir "laissé décider la pièce" et de nous offrir un "spectacle plein de belle philosophie, d'humour et de magnifiques résultats que vous nous faites partager avec cette générosité qui est l'une de vos formidables "marques de fabrique". C'estun véritable bonheur, Merci Phil !
Patrick
Merci beaucoup Patrick! Regardez-vous avec sous-titrage en français ou comprenez-vous l'anglais ? Juste curieux. J'apprécie beaucoup votre commentaire! 😃
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I understand English and speak it... rather badly, however I generally put the subtitles on because it helps me and it makes up for my lack of vocabulary and my lack of speed.
As the subtitles are not always faithful to what you say, I often re-listen to better hear what you are really saying and better watch what you are doing.
One of the many mistakes sometimes quite funny in subtitles is when you speak for example of "crack" and that the voice recognition interprets "crap": it can give quite crisp sentences for someone like me who likes games of words in French or in English.
Several decades ago, I had "paid" my first micro-computer to the company which sold them, by translating into French the numerous technical instructions (use and programming) of these "new" devices (to the time).
Computer technical English has been my daily life for many years since I became a computer scientist and then a computer teacher, but "everyday" conversations are much more difficult for me because I don't practice enough on a daily basis and memory isn't what it used to be lol..
@@patv6897 Thank you for the history lesson, Patrick. Very interesting!
i've watched many of your vids, this bowl is definetly a favorite. Good job!
Wow, thanks, John! 😊
Lovely bowl Phil, when I first saw the blank I thought it was walnut but this is lovelier, well done and thanks!
Cheers Al
Similar, I would say. Thanks, Al! 😃
it looks so mid century modern....squeeeee!!!! I love it!!!!
Thank you, Audrey! 😃
Hi Phil I like your cunfused angry bowl, Especially the wood grain, the color of the wood is sorta like walnut .Anyway keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Silky silky. Thanks for sharing Phil. It was a very enjoyable video. I hope I see you on the next one
Thank you, Albert! 😃
Phil beautiful. Another Bowl to eat potato chips from like I've told you before your work is second to none😊
Thank you, Kim! 😃
That tree would be very proud of what you made.
😃
So good Phil! I am glad Silky won.. 😛 I have been leaning so much from you and really enjoy the process!
Thanks, Anthony! I'm sure I will revert to smooth, though. It's just more natural to me but now I have a fallback! 😃
Great work Phil. It started out a little sketchy but you turned it into a masterpiece.
Thank you, Shaun! 😃
Phil, another work of art. I like all your work, wings or not. Because you let the wood guide you to the finished product rather than forcing a shape on it. I have yet to turn my first stick of wood but you are already one of my inspirations. Hope you are doing well my internet friend. :)
C'mon, Harvey, what are you waiting for? Get to turning! 😃
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I need space to put a lathe mostly... working on that one.. :)
It certainly was a beautiful finished bowl, angry yes, right up til you knocked the little knob off at the end.
Haha, that'll teach him, Margaret! 😃
Wow, stunning, never heard of red elm. Thanks for sharing Phil, stay safe, Jules, Droitwich, England
Thanks, Julian, you too! 😃
Another master piece by the master, I as well as my wife love it as well as all your turnings thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks to you both, George! 😃
Another great one to add to your collection. Do love your videos, keep entertaining us Phil. Bob
Thanks, Bob! 😃
I love it, thanks for letting it stay square.
Thanks for appreciating the difference, Ms Bee! 😃
Thank You Phil, Thank You Bum.... Red Elm new to me... I am just now back from a long hard. early morning hike up hill and am watching with one eye open (i think the other one is asleep?)... It looks like Red Elm is hard ? I agree it has a very nice look to its grain. I like how you have your starting game plan than change as the project progresses. You let the wood tell you how it wants you to bring out it's best look. ... (ok, yes I fell asleep than I rewound and picked up at "Silky" 😁)... TONS OF FUN PHIL, Beautiful grain, finished quite nicely with its unusual square top...Thank You again BUM (just had to say it again, ha)...TM
Haha, it's all that fresh air you're breathing in every dang day, Tuffy. Makes you so relaxed you fall asleep in the middle of one of my videos! At least, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Couldn't be the content! LOL! Thank you, my friend! 😃
I love your winged bowls Mr. Phil. You always do a wonderful job turning the wood into what it’s intended to be ❤. Just another beautiful work of art!! Thank you!
Thank you, Madonna! 😃
True, true…if all you made were round bowls it could get boring…probably not though with your eye for finding the prize in all sorts of pieces…love all of your unusual finished projects…
Thank you, Loraine! 😃
There was once a lot of elm here in Wisconsin but they were wiped out by Dutch Elm disease. I cut down a dead elm years ago that was close to 4 feet diameter. Now it is rare to find one bigger than 8 inches diameter. A piece of elm that size is getting harder to find. You did a great job on that bowl.
Thank you, Edward! 😃
Great job Phil, you do the same thing that I do. Let the piece tell you what it wants to be.
😃
Phil what you have produced is a great piece of art , as the saying goes beauty is in the eye of the beholder you can only please some people some of the time , wood being a beautiful natural substance doesn’t have to be carved round , I only do a little turning but I find it best to work with the shape you have , some will love it some will hate it who cares if you like it that is all that matters , love your work all the best from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you, Roger! 😃
Lovely wood, Phil. I think this is the first time I’ve seen red elm, and it sure is pretty.
Best wishes always, N
Thanks, Neal! 😃
Great work, Phil. Had me worried when you were taking off the tenon. I thought for sure it was going to chuck it at you.
Thanks, Mark! 😃
Beautiful like usual. I like that you don’t necessarily make a round bowl. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, Guy! 😃
Beautiful piece Phil. Another gem from a testing crotch.😮
Thank you, Kevin! 😃
Love the name for the piece! I really liked the grain pattern on the top part of the bowl; that elm really has some amazing figure. Once again, just an awesome piece; it's kind of cool that it is not symmetric.
Thank you, Mark! 😃
Beautiful grain, a fabulous piece 💕👏👏👏🇬🇧
Thank you, Maud! 😃
Gotta' agree it is interesting. Beautiful finish! it is totally Unique. God Bless you Phil. Love your work.
Thanks, Bob! 😃
Great unique shape. Great show piece. Thanks again for sharing your talent.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Howdy Phil 👋
😃
Phil, what a lovely bowl the colour and the grain is brilliant, looks a really hard wood with a beautiful shine
Thank you, Alan! 😃 Cheers!
Another gorgeous piece Phil. Your finish really makes it pop.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Carl! 😃
Great looking piece Phil and another fun turn ... for us at least 😂
I love Elm such a beautiful grain . Till next week , stay safe .
Thank you, Jim! 😃
Nice job Phil, some would call it a Picasso, perfection in the midst of confusion. 🙃 I'd rather have your bowl than the other! Never did get the drift of the Picassos'.
Thank you! 😊
Hey Phil! Nicely done and beautiful bowl! Got a friend that’s starting to turn bowls and ask how I removed my tendons, I sent him one of your videos so he could see the Master perform! Thanks for being the teacher that you are! Keep safe! Gary
How cool is that! Thank you, Gary! 😃
Nice job, decent sized Popcorn bowl.
😃
That would look really good sitting on a kitchen counter, with either 'cut' side flush against the wall! Definitely unique, even in a modern kitchen this would pass without issue!
😃
Very nice, Phil! You are very inspirational. And thanks to Bum!
Thanks, John! 😃
Great job Phil! You've done it again!👍 You're the man!💪
😃
