I really like that you didn’t fill in the burls and “imperfections” with epoxy. The gaps in the wood really added nice character to the finished piece.
If it were clear epoxy, that could be cool. Right now, I'm not exactly sure what he was trying to make, but with the epoxy, or resin, he could have a more complete appearance to the art.
Personally I love the pieces which use epoxy as a key part of the art. But I can see that it would only be a small part of this piece. So can see why Andy went this way. It worked out well, even if not to my aesthetic taste.
I already know this will be amazing before I even watch. ❤ My dad was a master carpenter and he was always working on something and sometimes it’s nice to hear the same noise again.
I totally get that feeling! There's something so comforting and nostalgic about those familiar sounds. It's like being transported back to those moments of watching a skilled craftsman at work
I lived off-grid on the sea for 13 years, had own anchorage & a small rustic float camp 6 miles from Tofino BC. Yew wood around there was harvested for the coldest times since it burned like coal. Heard rumor of a registry for yew but never researched the largest specimen found. Found one more that 3 foot diameter & I harvested almost a dozen large (dead) branches the size of a man`s waist but left the massive live trunk & a couple live branches.
Always was my favourite subject in school learning how to use a lathe. Wish somebody had told me i could have made a career out of it. I will just have to live vicariously through you. 😊
I qualified as an Automobile Engineer from the Austin in the 60's . Got my degree and suddenly asked myself, what are you doing? Started wood turning and absolutely loved it! It's never too late either!
It's never too late to learn, my father was a farmer but he started wood turning in his 60s , built his own lathe buying pieces at the auction, and had items go all over the world.
Finally, someone who takes the corners off before turning. Unless you do woodturning yourself, you don't know how much that initial juddering can strain your hands and wrists.
The colors and grain structure of the Yew wood is simply beautiful, and you bring out its best! I so enjoy the piece I purchased from you months ago. Everyone that sees it comments on how beautiful it is! Love watching you create these works of wooden art!
Just found you a few weeks ago. Have never in my life knew how stuff like this was made & I couldn’t be happier to be learning. Your videos have been helping me fall asleep haha. They’re so satisfying & relaxing. Keep making your beautiful art. You’re incredible 🤍
I loved two things that caught me by surprise. Using a chainsaw to take off the big pieces and to better balance it. Genius. Then, that awesome jig with three adjustable rollerblade wheels to better stabilize the piece for internal hollowing. Again, genius. I appreciate how careful you are with the work, how dangerous this actually is, and how you take every precaution so we can just enjoy the art. 😊
Wow! Andy this piece is simply amazing a great job! I liked the gouge cam angle a great deal, hardly any shake to the picture and was a smashing perspective. Youve instilled some ideas as all we woodturners can do is look at a lump of wood and think which way it will go. Your easy steady is also a great , been thinking about one myself. Thanks for your video! Cheers
Amazing piece Andy!!! Yew wood is the ultimate wood for turning, its just magical. Every yew tree is different and unique, and every piece tells a story throught the slow growing and beautiful grain! 🎉
Completely and totally agree. What random TREASURES come from the WOODS. All that's necessary here, is a 'DISCIPLINED HAND, to bring out the BEAUTY. Really quite amazing. Thank you.
If I were a homeowner I would definitely have a shop and in that shop there would be a lathe. Also a bunch of other woodworking tools as I love to carve. You inspire me my friend.
The shape allowed for good interior camera angles and the lighting was just right. When you do narrow mouth vessels, I always marvel at how you know just how far you can go without cutting right through the piece.
Well done. This is something definitely deserving of experience. Can be very dangerous with all those rpms. Can snatch one of those tools right out your hand and in the ER you go. Very nice
Quelle merveille, je comprends fort bien votre amour pour ce bois noble qui sous vos mains prend vie et vous apporte que du bonheur. 👏l'artiste pour cette splendide pièce pleine de charme qui m'enchante. Le Sud de la France te salue 🤗😀🙏
*That's what she said.*
Well said! 😂😂😂

I agree! The "imperfections" are where the pieces character lies ❤
Anything with character is pretty good.
I think epoxy work is getting a bit over done,just my opinion,but I've been staying natural with my turnings of late

Bro I can fall asleep to this. It’s like asmr

Yew is such a gorgeous wood, the grain is just amazing and I really love that you left it natural. Beautiful work Andy
Yew did a great job on this one, I'm digging the way out turned out.
That wood never disappoints, and neither do you! Another gorgeous piece, Andy!
Thank you!
The thumbnail for this looked like a piece of beef. You turned it into a thing of great beauty. Love it.
You look like a piece of beef
That’s what I thought it looked like too lol

Isn't it amazing how those skills stick with you? It's never too late to pick it up as a hobby again

In india there is lack of this type of activities. We just doing studies (books) and written exams in school.😢
Just remember. School gives you nothing for life

Yew don’t disappoint Andy ,stunning vase ,beautiful colours in the yew wood well done🎉❤

9:46 - even wood can smile :D

Thanks so much Dean 👍
Nice work! I have some 4" juniper pieces. Never thought about tuning them that way! Thanks for the inspiration!
Just found you a few weeks ago. Have never in my life knew how stuff like this was made & I couldn’t be happier to be learning. Your videos have been helping me fall asleep haha. They’re so satisfying & relaxing. Keep making your beautiful art. You’re incredible 🤍
Thankyou
Man the more I see you turn Yew, it just makes me want to get some. One day.😄
I knew when I saw the title this will be good. Yew is probably the best turning wood there is. It has lots of appealing character.
A beautifil piece, love that you kept it natural.
Man, that piece of wood has some incredible character. And it's like you found it and stopped at the exact right spot.
Beautiful work Andy, that Yew has a very happy face 😃
A truly wonderful piece, it may look eerie but also charming so congratulations
Мастер как всегда молодец!!! Очень интересно наблюдать за созданием очередного шедевра🤝👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is beautiful. You've exposed the beauty in the wood as it is. Just focused on the wood itself. Marvelous!
The most satisfying process to watch is creating something beautiful from a generous heart ❤️
I gotta admit, you did such phenomenal work on make that fine woodnote vase. I love it!
I love the beauty of the wood and the way imperfections become beautiful. Thank you
Andy, this is another great piece of art. You are such a skilled craftsman and I love watching your work. Thank you for sharing.
Yew wood is impressive stuff. Beautiful colors and extremely dense for a gymnosperm. When I teach wood science I always linger on that for a bit.
Первый раз вижу обработку таким необычным способом , орнамент дерева совсем необычный . Браво .
Yew never disappoints , it's my favorite , by far the most beautiful wood we have in the west of France...
As someone who has only the vaguest idea of the work involved in woodturning, I gotta say I really appreciate when you properly hollow out a vase. 🖐😩👌
Always enjoy seeing your insanely gorgeous works!! Beautifully done, sir!!
The wood never disappoints and neither do you Andy. 👍🏼🇺🇸
Anyone else see that happy face in the holes?
Andy,
That piece is absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful work.
Thank you.
Many thanks!
I'm really liking the 3-wheel stabilizer jig you made for yourself! Reminds me of my BIL.
I loved two things that caught me by surprise. Using a chainsaw to take off the big pieces and to better balance it. Genius. Then, that awesome jig with three adjustable rollerblade wheels to better stabilize the piece for internal hollowing. Again, genius. I appreciate how careful you are with the work, how dangerous this actually is, and how you take every precaution so we can just enjoy the art. 😊
Thanks 👍
Beautiful. You took a chunk of wood & within minutes create a vessel with a lovely voluptuous shape. My new favourite! 👏🏻👏🏻
I wouldn’t call it a vessel, it isn’t holding much with those holes in it
Great form. Camera view as you were working the inside was nice. The voids in the side makes unyewsual. Enjoyable as always.
I love the most natural of shapes. This piece I would buy! Loved it.
Beautiful tree, gorgeous wood, an extremely skilful hand and very creative eye = a wonderful vase! 😍
Thank you very much!
Were you a dragon slayer in a former life? Your bravery is astounding!
both of yew (never disappoints). another great work Andy.
Здравствуйте Энди! Форма тюльпана м-м-м! Это очень красиво👍👍👍 Вы как всегда меня очень удивляете своим творчеством👍👍👍👍👍 С уважением из России 🇷🇺
Mother Nature makes beautiful things, and you brought it out for everyone to see. Nice work.
I learned wood working back in middle school. Late 80s/early 90s. I always wanted to learn how to use a lathe. Nice piece.
That moment when the oil goes on, wow beautiful 😊
I never realized that Yew wood was so pretty. Great job Andy, it's beautiful.
Thank you very much!
Wow! Andy this piece is simply amazing a great job! I liked the gouge cam angle a great deal, hardly any shake to the picture and was a smashing perspective. Youve instilled some ideas as all we woodturners can do is look at a lump of wood and think which way it will go. Your easy steady is also a great , been thinking about one myself.

Stunning. Absolutely stunning! I'm not one for ornaments, but I'd give anything of yours pride of place.
Thank you!
That is beautiful. Just goes to show that flaws can actually contribute to a beautiful object or person.
That piece turned out amazing!
Amazing piece Andy!!! Yew wood is the ultimate wood for turning, its just magical. Every yew tree is different and unique, and every piece tells a story throught the slow growing and beautiful grain! 🎉
"This wood never disappoints".
Truer words have never been spoken...
Hi Andy! That looks good. A smiling face on the vase👍. Best regards from Hans and Cheers 🍻🇦🇹.
Completely and totally agree. What random TREASURES come from the WOODS. All that's necessary here, is a 'DISCIPLINED HAND, to bring out the BEAUTY. Really quite amazing. Thank you.
Really nice, Andy. That wood definitely didn't disappoint.
Bill
Thanks 👍
Beautiful wood getting it's due homage. I love it. For me this is what you are all about: turning the unpromising into wonder.
The wood never disappoints, and neither do you . Great job 👏
Always enjoy seeing what you bring out of the wood.
If I were a homeowner I would definitely have a shop and in that shop there would be a lathe. Also a bunch of other woodworking tools as I love to carve. You inspire me my friend.
Thanks 👍
good morning Andy, another beautiful, unique piece, like the wood, you never disappoint either, thanks for sharing
Nice one andy! I love the look and grain of Yew Really looks good - Thanks for sharing
Thanks 👍
The shape allowed for good interior camera angles and the lighting was just right. When you do narrow mouth vessels, I always marvel at how you know just how far you can go without cutting right through the piece.
What a beautiful thing you’ve made!
Thank you!
That is such a beautiful creation, in your part and natures’ part 💚
Gorgeous, I would love this piece.
I'm always delighted to see new videos on your channel. I'm not a woodworker, but I like watching. - Todd in Rochester, New York.
Thank you very much!
That is stunning! It makes me think of an owl! 🦉
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful piece Andy
Many thanks!
Breathtakingly beautiful, Andy! 👍 Were it mine, I'd display it on a slowly rotating turntable so every aspect could be enjoyed fully.
Many thanks!
Hölle und Verdammnis... ein Superlativ der Drechselkunst (art of woodturning)
Sensationell!!! ❤
Yew never disappoints is right. Beautiful piece.
Well done. This is something definitely deserving of experience. Can be very dangerous with all those rpms. Can snatch one of those tools right out your hand and in the ER you go. Very nice
Omgoodness. I appreciate your work.
Thankyou

The oil really enhances the color of yew. Hopefully I can get some to turn one day.
Wow, it's stunning, a piece of art! ❤
😮 Gorgeous! That wood is stunning!

i like holes and the imperfections. it created a quite artistic design. very tasteful.
love your work
Thank you so much
What a beautiful creation 👏
Your shop is so clean 😮
Nice vase. The three holes on it when turned upside down look like face. Good job. Keep it up.
Great piece…even has a smiley face on the side when you look upside down at it 😀
I love that rollerblade wheel jig. that would make me feel so much more comfortable turning big pieces.
Beautiful, love the wood grain.
beautiful work man!
Oooo paintbrush application! 🧡🧡🧡☺️
There's just something about this one that's so nice. Maybe it's the little holes in the side, idk. But, I love it.
