Woodturning - Glass Like Finish

Woodturning - Glass Like Finish
In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a piece of spalted maple into a bowl with a glass like finish. I feel this video falls into the ASMR and entertainment categories.
If you find these video’s a good source of entertainment, I’d appreciate you like, share and subscribe.
Thanks for watching.

I'll start by saying that these videos usually drop very late on my Friday night and ad a result, it's rare for me to watch the whole thing through the first time without falling asleep to the gentle sound of wood filing. Beautiful work and a simply gorgeous finish. Love the work you've been putting in lately, exploring these new grits and waxes and the finishes you get. 😁

@JackMackWoodturning Жыл бұрын
It’s not soft as all it’s maple so it’s very dense indeed. It’s a broad leaf so it’s classified as a hardwood although the terms hard wood and soft wood have no relevance to the actual density of the timber. For example Yew is classed as a soft wood and is fairly dense and balsa wood is classed as a hard wood and is extremely light weight and soft to the touch.

A fine glossy finish - very pleasant! BTW: I think turning a bowl (or any hollow workpiece) needs some amount of spatial sense. Did it ever happen you cut trough the wood because you overestimated it's thickness? Or do you frequently measure it?

That used to happen when I first started bowl turning. That was 20 years ago . I don’t think I’ve done that in about 18 years now. I don’t measure.. I’ve learnt to truest my judgment.
