Mesquite Live Edge - Wood Turning
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2020
- My first time turning Mesquite. I found it to have beautiful grain and color and the bark is amazing when finished. The bark did give me a very hard time to keep it intact, even though it was quite tight to the wood. It just kept splintering off little pieces requiring a lot of time to repair and smooth but I feel the time was worth it for this gorgeous shellac finished piece!

It is so easy to see the beauty of your turning. I wish I could see it in mine.
Thank You so very much for your vid's. You are a great Teacher weather you realize it or not.
Thank you very much, Don! 😀
Phil, I am convinced there isn't a piece of wood, no matter the shape or size that you can't turn into a beautiful bowl or piece of art. That you always leave as much of the bark as possible is an added bonus. I think this bowl is beautiful, as is all of your creations.
Wow, thank you, Charlotte, you put a smile on my face! 😊
Phil You are a artist.
And you are too kind! 😊 Thank you, Alcino!
Nice bowl. A friend's dad built a house in Maui back in '92. He built a fence and for one of the posts, he found a mesquite post and used it. I visited in 2015 and that mesquite post had taken root and is now a tree. My dad was from Texas and he said that is common.
Oh wow! That is really interesting, Ken. So, maybe if I plant my bowl I'll get a set of dishes? LOL! Honestly, thank you for the information, something I can pass along. Thank you for taking your time to watch and comment!

I couldn't wait to see how it would turn out either and it turned out grand - the shape, the grain, the colour, the sheen on it - everything. Thank you to Dan for sending it. I hope your lathe will be all right. Thank you very much for sharing with us and see you soon.
Thank you so much, I so glad you like it! The lathe was an easy fix, just a loose handle.
Oh ma gosh!! I just love this piece! We have black walnut trees in our yard that need to come down...now you have my brain working overtime!!
A working brain is a happy brain! 😊
Sweet. And thanks for all the little explanations along the way - means a lot to those of us just starting out!
Glad to help! Thank you for watching, Cory!
This is beautiful. And, it encourages me to turn a Japanese maple crotch from my daughter's tree. I was undecided how I should do this but now I know.
This is great, Paul, thank you! Have fun with yours! 😊
I keep reviewing the videos. Just love you keeping as much as possible the natural edge of each piece. It’s your trademark/style and it’s so beautiful. Never get tired of it. Great work.
Glad you like them, Sylvie, thank you! 😊
Thanks Phil.
The mesquite is so great to work with. Living in South Texas I have lots of opportunities yo cut down trees for people. Free wood. I like turning it green. The grain is then darker and so easy to turn. I have a v crotch piece that will be one of my next projects after watching this video. Your narrative during the video is do helpful. Keep up the great work.
Very cool, Larry, thanks! 😊
Thanks for sharing Phil - absolutely beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it, Jeff, thank you!
Beautiful mesquite bowl.
Thank you very much, Elisa! 😊
Woe, breathtaking
😊
Delightful piece of work thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching allll the way from up there in Calgary! 😊
Love it! Mesquite is my favorite... the trees of my childhood, so I knew the bark was going to give you trouble.
I'm glad, thank you! 😊
Wow, that is just beautiful. I love it!
Thank you so much, Andrew! 😊
It is a great bowl. Love the Mesquite wood. Lived in AZ and learned to love it
Very cool! Thank you, I'm glad you like this piece!
Amazing results!
Thank you, Barb! 😊 Cheers!
I really like this video. I volunteer in a public shop where I manage the lathe. People are always coming to me wanting to turn unmilled wood. many of them have never turned before. Mesquite is a good hardwood for this type of turning. With softer wood, there are going to be more problems with chipping bark and flying apart. This type of lathe work is advanced turning.
Thank you!
That's probably fun, working with different people, L. R. I wish I had room in the shop to teach.
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I will recommend this video to people. You tell the speed and tools to use without loud music. You should do a video on how to center a piece like this. This would be huge.
Another winner!

Nice job Phil a real beautiful peace.
Thank you, Woody! 😊
Being from Texas I love mesquite, I use Howard’s Feed and Wax on mesquite , it tends to darken the wood more and warms the color. Beautiful work as always.
Thanks for the info, T T! I plan to use Howard's next time I turn Mesquite.
Nice shape and grain, beautiful finish. ❤️
Glad you like it, Maddie, thank you very much!
That's really beautiful

Very beautiful outstanding job Phil love it
Many thanks, Mike!! 😊
Turned out so beautiful! So much personality. I love it! You always put such a wonderful finish on all your peices. Makes ya want to touch it.😊👍💝
Thank you so much, Sunshine! I learned early on in my woodturning that holding and touching a piece is probably more important than how it looks. It takes time but worth it.
Thanks again Phil for continuing to teach us, you inspire me to try new and more difficult projects on my lathe, until next time buddy!👍👍
Great to hear, Butch! I'm so glad to know you are willing to try new things. Thank you for watching! 😊
Lovely bowl Phil, I too was waiting for the grain to pop but it's still quite beautiful... your videos never disappoint as you do such quality work. Thanks for this week's adventure...
Thank you so much, Ruthlyn! 😊
lovely piece, i did not know Mesquite was such a beautiful wood
I didn't either, Joyce. We were both pleasantly surprised!☺
That is beautiful
Thank you so much, Kim! 😊
Mesquite -- one of my favorites to turn. Beautiful work! I especially like the mesquite that has been down for some time since it attracts every bug in the universe. The worm holes add a lot to a finished product.
Interesting, Lonnie, thanks! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Mesquite grows like a weed here in SW Oklahoma; however, it doesn't get very big. I bring huge trunks back from my brother's place south of San Antonio -- Mesquite grows year round there, and gets pretty big.
