Woodturning - An Unknown Crotch Log !!

Рет қаралды 125,722

In this woodturning video I turn an unknown crotch log, which didn't smell very nice at all while turning it. As usual I didn't have much of a plan to start with but thought the wood was quite bland so added a bit of colour and texturing to the inside, it ended up a lot cooler than I thought it would..
If anyone's got any idea what the wood is let me know in the comments..

It’s a very pale coloured wood and I was wondering if it was perhaps Willow as that has a bad smell when split. I like the finished piece though.

You mentioned the smell of this wood; Have you had the pleasure of working Plum or Pear before? Amazing smells! While I've never worked Pear personally, I have a Tenor Recorder cut from an 80-year old Pear tree. Even after being worked with and played for years; the wood smells amazing and I can't imagine that would be worse when working with it's raw, tree-shaped form. You have such a talent for this, honestly just the best videos to watch and relax~.

That is beautiful. The painted inside is a great contrast with the pale wood and I don't think I've seen any other turning project use paint, people seem so 'invested' in epoxy that it's a really nice to see. Bit scary turning the inside but it went really well. Thanks 🙂

Yh was going to say, Elder. The folklore for Elder is that it protects the home it grows by & it's bad luck to cut it down. It's also supposed to release bad spirits if it's burnt so people didn't burn it. I have 3 in my garden I love it.

I don’t think I’ve seen you paint wood before. I know you’ve used coloured fillers and of course varnish but it was so effective having the light wood and the blue on the inside

@missharry5727 2 ай бұрын

The overall shape, at least approximately, was clearly the only way it could go, but the finish was a surprise. I like the texture - that was a surprise - but I'm less sure about that bright blue. I think I'd have preferred a metallic finish which would really highlight the texture, perhaps gold or bronze.

At first I was like "Why are you turning it that way with the cut base as the base? Why not sideways?" But I like the hollow form shape of the finished piece. As a thought for another crotch piece, but maybe one with a tighter V. What if you partially turned it like this one so that you have kind of rounded on the sides, and then flip it so you're carving out the front bark side into the bowl?
