This week's turning project starts with the punky, rotted trunk of an ornamental cherry tree and ends with a punky, but pretty, natural edge bowl.

Another one for the books! Well done Chad! I liked how you re-shaped the outside bottom section to come closer to matching the inside sweep / transition section. A very nice finishing touch. You have a great eye for form!

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks, Joel! Glad you enjoyed it. I like using a little foot or transition to "lift" the bowl up a bit to help show off a little more of the piece.

Great looking bowl. I love working with spalted wood. I have found that by applying mineral oil to the punky areas, they will cut much smoother and leave little to no tear out.

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

I'll have to try that sometime. I assume you would use very little and only for your final cuts..? The way punky wood drinks up oil, it seems like it could get messy quickly if you applied too much. Thanks for watching!

@g.leebihm2588 2 жыл бұрын

@@ChadEamesWoodWorks I just apply a fair amount to the area and wait about 15 minutes before continuing. It’s not messy.

Very cool. What’s the finish? It really popped the grain.

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you! The finish is a 1:1:1 mix of boiled linseed oil, polyurethane, and mineral spirits.

G’day Chad How much did you speed camera up, can you put details like lathe speed sanding grits finished , film video speed and finish used as an overlay on video. I find that info very helpful. Wow what a wonderful natural edge bowl, cherry is truly amazing.

@markb8954 Жыл бұрын

Agree. Without any of the “value added details”…..it’s just another (nice) bowl - but i never learn anything new.

Beautiful grain and it turned out so nice. When you reversed it to take off the tenon how did you get it to run so true? This may seem trivial, but I LIKE your cutting frame. 👍👍👍👍👍 It's so simple yet very effective. I have a corded electric chainsaw as well but usually just cut my blanks outside. That's going change now.

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks, Larry! I used a plate that’s probably 5”-6” diameter with some non-slip shelf liner and I still had my center divot from the initial roughing. It almost lines itself up. The 2x4 frame is so simple and handy. I’ve been using that one for a few years. Thanks for watching!

Hi Chad, nice work! Was the punky part difficult to sand smooth?

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

It's sanded smooth to a point. The real soft areas sand away much faster, even with the lathe rotating, so it would probably take multiple layers of sanding sealer to get it smooth. One area is still spongy after the first two coats of finish. Thanks for watching!

How do you have your dust collected hose hanging there ?

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

It is attached to a post that is sticking out of the arm for the optional cage attachment. The hose is attached to the post and supported by chain link fence wire so it can be moved around.

I like spalted wood, cool bowl. I haven't been watching lately, how do you like your lathe? Been saving for a new one myself. Thanks for your video.

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks, David! I like my lathe quite a lot. It has plenty of hp and good torque. A little more vibration than I would like at times, but it's manageable. Value-wise for a larger lathe, I'd say it's easily the best value out there. It cost about 40% less than any other 3hp lathe I could find. It won't be my last lathe, but it's certainly a keeper.

WHY THE SUCTION PIPE IS BEHIND THE LATHE, WHEN THE CHIPS FALL BELOW AND FORWARD‼️ WHY❓ WHY⁉️

@ChadEamesWoodWorks 2 жыл бұрын

Good question... My LUNGS❗️That's why‼️ It's called a DUST collector, not a CHIP collector. 😜 In some of my videos you can actually see a steady stream of dust being sucked directly into it. I use a 1 micron filter on it, plus a 1 micron air cleaner for the whole shop. Plus, a HEPA filter face mask for anything that's not green wood. You have to be careful with your lungs if you do a lot of woodturning. Thanks for watching and for the question!
