The videos are for entertainment only. Woodturning is dangerous. Always seek professional advice and training before using the Lathe or any power tools. If you have any uncertainty before performing any woodturning procedure, stop and learn a safer method. Do not attempt any technique simply because you saw it in one of my videos, I might be doing them wrong!
Thank you for showing this. I have a lot of spalted hickory and oak I want to work with.
You are very welcome. thanks for watching .. have a great day and stay safe :-)
Very beautiful, 👍👍👍I like spalted wood,🙂🙂
Hi Gao, thank you very much for the comment 😁 have a great day and stay safe 😁
Thank you I will be trying this shortly with some ambrosia maple I got really bad tear out on
Hope it work out for you, I have used i a lot, with good result.. Thank you for watching i really apprciate it.. Merry Christmas and stay safe 😀🎄
Of course compliments for this beautiful bowl, but especially thanks for the tip with the resin. I had heard of it before, but could not find it again. Will save the recipe now. Thanks!
My pleasure! glade you liked it 😀 Thank you very much for watching ,, stay safe and have a great day 😀😀
So Frank, when are you going to try this ? I have much spalted maple that has been a problem as you know so I'm trying this soon😃 -Mike
@@mpart_woodlathe-stuff It could be a great project for this weekend. I'm going to see what wood I have lying around.
@@mpart_woodlathe-stuff I started a new project for this weekend where I want to try it. It is not spalted wood, but segments that I have to keep together. I think I can use this technique well for that😊. I will make a video of it, but it won't be online until next week.🙄🤞
@@TheTinyWorkshop Good Luck! Be sure to include plenty of details about the resin.
Very Very nice, well done. Great tip for stabilising 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Glade you found it helpful 😀 Thank you for watching .. Have a great day and stay safe 😀😀
Thank you. Informative!
You are welcome 😀 Thank you for watching .. have a great day and stay safe 😀😀
This looks like a world with continents.
You Are right, I can see what you meen. 😁👍 Thank you very much for watching and for the comment. Have a great day and stay safe 😁
I never knew that you could thin resin with acetone. Thanks for that information! I have some punky pieces that I rough turned, and I've been concerned about how they'll hold up when I try to finish them.
Glad I could help! hope it work out with your pieces 😀😀 Thank you for watching .. have a great day and stay safe 😀😀
So far as I know, the only thing acetone WON'T thin is... more acetone. That ALWAYS increases the volume.
Very nice video, and thanks for the tip about resin thinned with acetone. I will definitely try it. Beautiful hollow vessel as well. If I may offer a design suggestion, on the next one you might consider rounding over the inside and outside edges of the opening to soften the look and blend in better with the nice curves on the rest of the form. Have a great day.
Glad it was helpful! and thank toy for the tip, I did think about but desides to leave it to show the thickness of the peace better.. but I think you are right .. I will re mount it at some point and round off the indside edege .. thanks again 😀 and thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀
j'aime beaucoup votre travail, bravo.
Thank you very much 😁 an thank you for watching... Have a great day and stay safe 😁😁
Gorgeous! I have a bunch of heavily spalted and punky beech that I’ll try the resin/acetone coating on. It’s still wet, do you think it’ll need to be (mostly) dry before coating? Generally speaking resin does not like moisture but I’m not sure if this would hold true in this case.
Hi Lisa, I do the resin /asetone on simi wet too and it works fine, as I remember the most water % I done it with was around 22 or 25 % .. and beech take the mixture in very good .. good luck hope it work out for you and ending up in some beautiful pieces .. have a great day and stay safe 😀
WOODTURNING BY BRANDSTRUP thanks for the reply - I think the beech is within that moisture content so I’ll give it a whirl!
That is a really nice piece - the walls are so fine! And now I see that the penetrating resin works up to 10 mm I am confident it is truly a useful technique. Thanks you so much🙏 Stay safe. -Mike😷
Hi Mike, Yes it is a really great and cheap technique 😀hope it will work out for you if you try it .. thank you for watching my video.. stay safe 😀😀
My wife and I agree this is one of the finer pieces we've seen of the many turners I've subscribed to. But the icing on the cake is the stabilizing trick you shared. Thanks!
Hi Rob, thank you very much for the kind comment I really apprciate it, and I am glade the stabilizing trick was helpful.. Remember when using the asetone to have sugsion and plenty og fresh air or do it out side.. Good dag to you an your wife and stay safe 😁😁😁
Can you please tell me which laser system you use to sing work
Hi Wayne, I sure can I have this one www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5500mw-Desktop-DIY-Laser-Graviermaschine-Gravurmaschine-A3-CNC-Engraving-Drucker/153509501290?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=453494638700&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 it work great .. and the price is not bad i did buy another program for 40$ (Lightburn) thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀
WOODTURNING BY BRANDSTRUP Hi, thank you for quick reply, maybe your next video could be on setting up the lazer and using it? Just for old people like myself!
Thank you.. I have used a cactus juice like stabizer. I think I will try this..
Cactus juice is expensive her in Denmark and you need a vacuum chamber for it to work right but it will ofc. go all the way in the wood and really stabilize it, this metode will not go as fare in, but normally enough .. good luck with it .. Thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀
WOODTURNING BY BRAND. There are also injector type vacuum..where you use a air compressor to create a vacumn.. The injector hooks up to air hose and creates about -22 BARS ..thus works good..the device will fit in you hand small plus air hoses.. good luck..
Cost for good vacumn chambers are 2-3000$ US.. but the injector is about 100$ so much easier to use too and store..
I like that you refer to the grind as an Irish grind.. 45 years ago I was reading Peter Child who was English and got me thinking about bowl gouge grinding.. Your presentation is very good too ..Your English is wonderful too. I have always used a cactus juice like product.. I guess it’s time to try this.. Years ago I found a vacuum pump at a yard sale and was cheap. I change the oil in in the vacuum pump from time to time and still can go to -27.5 bars.. on these old punky bowls I like urathane as a finish and holds up better over time.. Your hollow form bowl is very pretty too .. Thank you.. ☺️👍
Thank you :-) have a great day and satay safe
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers! And thank you for watching .. stay safe 😀
Thanks for your excellent, informative tutorial, very helpful. Stay safe, regards from Scotland.
You are very welcome.. have a great day and stay safe 😀😀
Great, big spalted hollow form! I’m going try your acetone/epoxy trick this weekend on some punky red cedar. Thanks.
I have used many times .. Thank you for watching have a great day and stay safe :-)
I just found your videos today. Great videos, lots of information. Just like in this one with resin and acetone. So the mixture is half of both.
Hi, Thanks for watching .. and yes the mixture is half half.. have a great day and stay safe :-)
I have been working on a spalted bowl - wish I had seen your video before I started it. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching, I am glade you can use the tips and tricks .. have a nice day and stay safe :-)
Beautiful piece. Love the wood, the design, and the craftsmanship. Well done.
Thank you very much Doug, I really apprciate the comment and that you spend time to watch the video.. Have a great day and stay safe 😁😁
Beautiful project. The boring system is very cool. What process do you use to dry your wood? Really like your videos lots of great information.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate the comment and that you spend time to watch my videos .. Most of my bowls ia twice turned, roughed first and then turned when finished. after rough turning I end seal with sealer or the cheapest carpenter glue I can find and then water thinned 30 -50 % water .. and then the bowls go to the Kiln I made. I have a video showing how to make one and use it :-) but it take 3 to 4 weeks to dry a big bowl .. ua-cam.com/video/A4f3UHCmbKg/v-deo.html .. Have a great day and stay safe 😀😀😀
Great idea for stabilization! I will be trying that out. What hollowing system are you using? Thank you for sharing!
Hi Jim, Hope it work out for you 😀 I use the HOPE hollowing system with camera setup .. it work great and is very steady.. Thank you for watching stay safe 😀

I noticed you use a laser engraver. Do you mind sharing the brand name,cost and your experience good or bad ?
Hi Ron, It is a no-name from ebay, it work great, easy to follow instructions with assembly, I did buy another program (Lightburn) for 40$ the price on the laser is 149 euro .. It also come in a 5500 mn version .. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5500mw-Desktop-DIY-Laser-Graviermaschine-Gravurmaschine-A3-CNC-Engraving-Drucker/153509501290?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=453494638700&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
thank you for watching .. stay safe and have a great day .. 😀
WOODTURNING BY BRANDSTRUP thank you very much I will be ordering one for myself soon
Very nice indeed. Do you leave the wet wood lying outside for it to get this fine spalting? If so, for how long?
Hi Sigurdur, Thank you for watching my videos :-) yes I do leave the birch outside .. i leave it direct on the ground without end sealing it and I normal leave it around a year, sometime les time is needed but a year is a good guide .. i then cut off the ends to the burn pile and make blanks and end seal them, and most of the time you get some really nice spaltning.. it do happens that the hole log end in the burn pile if the rotting was to much .. Have a great day and stay safe 😀😀😀
@@WOODTURNINGBYBRANDSTRUP Thanks for your swift response and a clear answer. Can I be so bold as to mention my new woodturning UA-cam channel. ua-cam.com/channels/lXOVFRyZPywUMJ3kQU4yCA.html
Ofc. you can 😀😀just subed to it .. looking forward to see you movies :-) 😀
Thank you for the lesson
😁 You Are welcome glade you found it helpful.. 😁Have a great day and stay safe 😁
Loved the bowl; size, color, finish, etc. also appreciate the tip! I especially liked the ho-down music. Am I correct that you said a mixture of Resin and acetone? Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the kind comment I really apprciate it 😁😁 and yes it is acetone and finished mixed resin.. Happy turning 😁
Epoxy resin.
@@boooshes Yes
nice!!
Thank you! Cheers! Stay safe 😀
Thank you. How does this use of resin affect the final finish choice?
Hi Eric, Well you cant go for a oil finish or anything that need to seep down it to the wood, all the pores off the tree is closed and filed op with the resin..so you need to use wax or a lacquer or something that can harden on the outside and dont need to go indside the wood.. the Hampshire Sheen Gloss wax work great on top and leave a good finish in my opinion, and coloring with spirit and water based colour is out too.. hope that answered you question.. else feel free to write again 😀 thank you very much for watching .. stay safe and have a great day 😀😀😀
