No 5 min intro, no cheesy taglines, no speaking needed. Just quality content the whole way. This is how you youtube.

This is one of those pieces that can be examined for years, yet the viewer will continue to see new details. Bravo!

I’m ceaselessly amazed at how craftsmen like you are able to visualize a piece of art from within a piece of wood that would otherwise be rotting in the woods somewhere. For the longest time, I’ve just been using KZfaq to watch you and Matt Jordan. Love and admiration from 🇺🇸.

It’s amazing to watch the transformation of a rough tree stump to something beautiful!

IDK if it's just me but does anyone else find this sort of thing mesmerizing as well as therapeutic?!

3AM here and I am watching *woodturning* .KZfaq algorithm, You've done it again👏👏👏

This is the first time I've seen someone work with Yew like this. I had no idea it had such color variation. I love how you worked with the nature and shape of the wood and didn't try to fill in the voids. The finished piece is so interesting, so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

I remember in shop class in 7th grade, taking to the wood lathe to make a wooden lamp. One of the most rewarding projects I ever had.

Andy i am a retired Nurse who did a very very small amount of woodturning in my early 40s and i loved it but it was what most people think when you say woodturning, stair spindles! I have been watching several of your videos and i am truly in awe. You give a whole new meaning to wood turning/carving and it is absolutely beautiful. I have fallen back in love with wood because of you but i am now 70 and know it wouldn't matter what equipment i had i could never dream of producing what you produce. You are a wood artist. Congratulations. You are incredibly talented and i wish i could afford one of your pieces as it would have pride of place in my living room. Keeeep turning!

KZfaq recommended this to me randomly. As a first time viewer with zero experience or real interest in woodworking, this was interesting enough to keep me for the whole thing. Good job.

ALL heavily GRAINED wood is BEAUTIFUL !!! ............................ROOTS , BURLS so on and so forth !!! The FINISHED PIECE IS FANTASTIC & OUTSTANDING !!!

4:09 GOOD HOLY GOD THE PURPLES that is incredible. i thought i have seen the best of the best in woodturning already but i mean this has to be the most gorgeous thing ever turned

I see others turn roots but they don't turn out anywhere near that perfect. You have an exceedingly Gracious gift. Beautiful!

There are people, many people, who can look at a tree and marvel at the beauty of nature, but it takes an artist to look beyond the surface and reveal the real wonder that lies beneath and enhance it even more. You, sir, are that artist. This is such a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing your vision and your skill with everyone.

That's a very beautiful piece. I can only imagine how nerve racking it must have been to hollow it out. Amazing work

I think this man has every tool ever invented ☺️

Having reduced yews several times and knowing how quickly they can go through chains, I can only tip my hat to your chisel sharpening skills. Beautiful end result, I love how you tailor your approach to each piece, but yew is a special wood and it certainly looked fantastic when you'd finished. Thank you for the upload.

Nature reveals her BEAUTY ❤️🙏🏽.....the job of THIS man IS like jewelery , artist 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

So beautiful. I could sit and watch your videos all day long. You do such amazing masterpieces

That finished product is gorgeous ! Very, very nice work !

This might be my favorite piece I’ve ever seen turned. Wow 🤩. Would make an amazing lamp. Like low warm light in a cabin type I’m thinking.

I love how you manage to accentuate the beauty of what Mother Nature already created. It's a work of art!

BRAVO, Just great, no stupid talking, very relaxing, great job, 👍👍👍👍👍

I love this piece.

I cannot say enough just how much I love that piece. The color variations in the wood are so amazing. I'm glad that you didnt use any epoxy or other materials with this piece. The grain is so beautiful on its own

How a person would thumbs down on this video is totally beyond me 🤷🏻‍♂️. This is meditative and peaceful at minimum.

Absolutely beautiful!🌳🌲🪵🪓

So lovely. It looks like a magical planet surrounded by seas. Thank you for your art. S

I like the natural wood and the grain movement is unreal. This is one of my favorite pieces.

Another absolutely gorgeous sculpture….the colours are so lovely…I like to watch these videos before I go to bed as it counteracts the horrors of the day in 2021.

The colours make it look like polished rock to me. Amazing how it's come out!

When you have raw materials and makes it in a peace of art that is genius in my eyes.

That’s one of the most beautiful natural pieces I’ve ever seen turned

Oh my gosh‼️ what a SPECTACULAR job‼️ The grain is magnificent!!! A beautiful job well done!!

There is nothing I can add other than the skill and knowledge of how not to get a tool caught in the process is just amazing. The end product was beyond beautiful.

The profound impression evoked by this remarkable Edge Vessel reminded me of Immanuel Velikovsky, book "Worlds in Collusion." However, it transcends the terrestrial realm and instead alludes to a cosmic ballet of celestial bodies, wherein stars and galaxies engage in a mesmerizing dance of collision. This exquisite composition appears to have successfully encapsulated the resplendent tumultuousness of the cosmos.

I can't stop looking at these videos. The hidden treasures in the wood brought out by the artist. AMAZING

As a landscaper I have pulled -by hand- 100s of yew stumps over the years(taxus). The part where you drill the heart out..... it felt like that last root finally gave for me. Thank you! Cathartic!

Some of the most beautiful bowls I have ever seen have been spalted wood. Stumps that are slightly spalted are just gorgeous! Beautiful work. ❤

It's been a while since I first saw this, but I enjoyed it just as much this time. You do magnificent work. Nature is so beautiful!

Какая красота!Вы мастер своего дела!чем закрученней коряжка тем красивее рисунок изделия из дерева получается!очень нравятся ваши работы 👍👍👍👍🇰🇿

Красота невероятная! Это надо же увидеть в коряге будущий шедевр. Высший пилотаж, восхищению моему нет предела. 👍👍👍👍👍

Love the hidden colors that are brought out ‼️ I would definitely buy this 👵🏻👩‍🌾❣️

Не перестаю удивляться как получаются такие шедевры ❤

Beauty, in its purest form, is exquisitely revealed. All accomplished without a word.

I am reminded of the ugly duckling that became a beautiful swan. You took nature and with a keen eye turned it into a beautiful piece of art.

Looking at the finished product is not only pleasing to the eye, but calming. I had to look at it a little longer. So beautiful.😊

Living in Costa Rica 🌴😎🌴we are surrounded by beautiful wood and the tourist shops are filled with wooden art but seeing how much effort, time and loving care it takes to create them was a real joy watching this video.

That's the most amazing thing I have ever seen....to be able to bring out the inner beauty of that root. Beautiful!

Какая красота! Мастеру браво! Разглядеть в обычном корне такую красоту - это дорогого стоит.

as soon as i seen the purple in it i fellin love with the peice turned out amazing

the before and after is just jaw dropping. I would have loved to see the holes filled with epoxy resin. But It's a matter of taste. But also ensure that it can be used, not just look pretty.

Generally, Mr. Phillip, your videos have given me something to aspire to in my own shop. This one just makes me realize that there are skill levels in turning that it is useless for me to aspire to. 99 ways for that to go wrong for every one that resulted in such success, and yet you make it look easy. Absolutely astonishing craftsmanship in this work, and the wood itself came through with stunning colors and texture. World class work.

This piece right here...this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen someone create. Bravo!

I'd pay good money to have this piece in my home. It's gorgeous.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING ARTISTRY!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

I gotta admit, at first I was certain you'd fill it full of epoxy. I'm so glad you didn't. This is excellent. Congratulations!

Beautiful piece of art!! Well done!! I'd be proud to have it on display in my home.

Thank you. I never tire of watching an artist at work and waiting to see what transpires. I think that is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen made. It should be in a museum so that many people can see it and admire how beautiful wood is and how wonderful that there are craftspeople who can use modern machinery to bring out the beauty in the world. Thank you again I shall enjoy watching this video time and again

one of the most beautiful results I have seen. A metaphor for life…beauty in the ugly, or going through a process to get to the best part of life etc. I would have that on my display any day, beautiful grain.

Неожиданное, смелое решение! 😊 Великолепный результат! 👍 Вы - великий Повелитель красивого дерева! ❤️ Здоровья Вам и новых шедевров! 🙏

I LOVE watching wood turning videos. Each finished piece is a gorgeous masterpiece. But I do usually find myself saying, "I wish they'd left just a little more of the wood in there, somehow the full character of that beautiful piece of wood didn't quite make it through.." For the first time, I did NOT say that. It is perfection. ❤

Absolutely beautiful. Both of my brothers who have now payed away were woodworkers .I really appreciate your amazing craftsmanship.

Absolutely Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 😊

That makes YEW look marvelous.

Love how optimistically cautious he is! He is a pro at this for sure love watching him create art! This is very dangerous if you don't know what your doing. Beautiful work of art!

My anxiety went into overdrive watching you turn that. Nature is more beautiful than anything man made. You just helped uncover it.

A relatively unremarkable garden shrub is turned in to an extraordinary piece. Hats off to you!

I just inherited a wood lathe, + this video has built- up my confidence to try it out .very cool Thank-You!

Absolutely Gorgeous! You are an artist. Only someone who is a true visionary could have seen the potential in that gnarled old root!

I thought it was going to be a lamp .Beautiful to see all the different colors appear.

Stunning piece of work. Nature by design!!

This put me in the most delightful trance of relaxation. Lovely.

That root ball produced some interesting optical effects when it was spinning. I love seeing what results one can get from root balls and burls. Stunning piece! I would give it pride of place!

The details are so unique and interesting. You did a beautiful job with this piece of wood.

Thank you for having the talent and vision to reveal this beauty!

Thanks for making a lot of folks happy with your art!

Oh no you didn't....OH YES YEW DID...lol....Just couldn't resist.... I love how you honored the wood and it's shape(s). In carving out the inside & not shying away from it...showed that you appreciated the wood exactly as it was. Then by sanding the openings so they were smooth all the way around you showed they each had their rightful place in the prominence of the whole. You have a great eye Andy. This is a beautiful piece.

I see a visionary person with a lot of love and compassion in his/her heart. No one who cares to do something like this has a different heart than that!! Amazing!!

The purple colour that comes through was so surprising and beautiful.

Stunning, and the colours are beautiful - the purple and lilac against the creamy white is amazing. Quite scary thought - particularly when using the Forstner bit.

Wonderful- beauty of mother nature amplified and realized by human ingenuity!!

Wooooow 😮 Didnt think id be able to watch as the wood was a little bit too textured at the beginning for the old brain, but i did it. Bloody amazing!

That is one of the most beautiful pieces of wood I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing with us.

It's like the beauty was always inside and you just found a way to show it to everyone.

Wow! In my wildest imagination, I never thought that ugly tree root would birth such a beautiful work of art!

fabulous so nice to see a piece with so much natural color and NO RESIN

Takes a big set off balls to turn a knotted piece like that. Respect.

Amazing how much beauty there is hidden in what some people would just burn, absolutely stunning, well done.

...very well done!...yew took a doorstop and turned it into a beyewtiful work of art!!!...👍

Absolutely beautiful. I love how you have brought out the patina of the yew in all its different hues. What a gift you have!

These colors that the wood contains are just so beautiful 🤩

From such a humble beginning that emerged. What else is there to say? GORGEOUS!

I’m impressed by how sharp the hand is, or at least how it cuts right through this gnarly piece of wood. Back to the show!

i cant get enough of your videos , im binging on watching them all you inspired me to get into turning!, when im not watching your video im creating videos on my channel!

Очень замечательно, глазам приятно смотреть человеку, специалисту огромное спасибо здоровья Вам и замечательных поделок.

♥️♥️♥️GORGEOUS ♥️♥️♥️ doesn’t even begin to describe my feeling for the piece!!! I absolutely love it!!! Very nice job sir

Thankyou SIR WHOEVER U R !! This video is just remarkable. You’ve been taught in art? Woodwork? How to choose the right pieces of wood? Finished product Is indeed a beautiful wood grained work of art ,I say. The beauty of wood! Showing inside of wood. Your shed must have every lad’s excitement to have . All very good,interesting. Men and machines. 😮😊

I'm glad you kept it in its original form, the colours and patterns are just stunning

I love the irregular organic beauty of this piece.
