If you put the purpleheart in the Sun it will turn purple again. They always turn reddish brown when they're finished. It turns purple through oxidation. I've heard acetone can speed it up but I just leave it on the porch for a couple hours and in a few days it gets very purple again.

I just purchased a G700, it was working great but now there’s an error code F60. Which is not in the manual. Any idea??

Where are you? I hope you are well.

A Year later now,,,, where have you been? And, we like this a great deal!

I like both but I find that colors sell much better than natural.

I clicked on this for the blond with ample bussom😊

Beautiful piece. I am a new subscriber, Thank you.

thank you

Nice

Looks awesome. The only thing I would do differently is drill more holes in the side

Is this wood green, and can you use resin on green wood

I enjoy most videos I watch, and learn something from them also. I am just in the process of setting up a new lathe. I would like to get into boxes etc, . I have quite a few health issues but do nejoy doing things with my hands and brain.Have wood carved for years, animals, birds and a few fish also have done a large number of masks of natives and other people.

I have been turning for about7or 8 years and I like to see what other turners are doing. I can always learn something new. I like that you narrate. I dont particularly care to watch "silent" turners. I always want to know what finishes are being used. Good videos please keep them coming

Great video and beautiful bowl! I started to watch wood turning as it was somehow so soothing on my overthinking brain. Eventually with time and opportunity I bought a school bus and have converted it into a lil wood workshop. I am still very much a newbie and watch to learn and for inspiration. I will say, something about your style (what you cut, when, where, how) is particularly pleasing on the brain! Perhaps the sped up footage helps. Makes the wood look to just fall away effortlessly! If only real-time was that easy hey? haha Now that I've done some turning myself I have new appreciation to just how much thought, skill, tools, experience etc.. goes into turning!

Thanks for sharing this video! I recently turned a practice piece of wood that ended up being quite pretty if it wasn't for the termite holes throughout. I was considering either filling them with epoxy or drilling them or opening them with rotary tool first then epoxy.. this video really helped me visualize what some of that might look like. I definitely did love the spalting!! You have a new subscriber in me from only one video watched, looking forward to more! :)

Love this learned this thanks

Don't use epoxy resin to make dishes you intend to eat off of. It's fine to make them if they're merely decorative, though.

Watch to learn. I just am getting started. Finished my first bowl

Hi there...thank you for the video... I am in the process of turning a bowl from a "messy" burl. I can see there are cracks in it and was looking for ways to use epoxy mid-way through a project. Your video showed me! Thanks again!!

Can this turning be used for food ..Like mabey a salad .Platter.????.if.not.i don't see the point..(.food safe )..

you lost your bark! isn't there a way you can end up with the top edge being the same thickness all the way around?

why did you reference a "female you tuber"? why not just another you tuber?

Very nicely done.❤

Color before sealing

Thanks for the video Peggy. What a lovely bowl. I started my 5th bowl and decided to use Purple Heart. I was glad to hear it is indeed a dense wood. You do make it look easy, it’s not. And also I get to dig a screw out to tomorrow too.

Did you use a pressure pot? Also what carbide tools were you using?

Anything newer on the way???

Epoxy does not “dry”. It polymerizes. Or cures.😅. Thanks for sharing.

Watching to see how to add epoxy to cracks Learning nice job

I like your calm explanation😊

I like to watch you do your craft. Great job!

Like to watch great bowl

The bowl is quite beautiful

bloody. brilliant

Cool project. My company has been at work on a PAPR with an all in one design monocoque manifold. Our aim is a PAPR that's more accessible to the DIY crowd. When we have certification, would you be willing to give it a try to compare? Its called MicroClimate Air3.

I’m watching because I’m new to turning and want to learn about turning. I have material that’s cracked but wanted to see if I could still use it with epoxy.

Beautiful workmanship

Wicked Deadly

Have you retired from KZfaq? I hope all is well. You were getting really good. Hate to see you go.

Bravo! Good save on the disconnect, happens to me to frequent to admit. Beautiful bowl

I have just started turning - I am watching for knowledge and ideas.

Since you asked, I'm a newbie to this - started turning in January and I like watching videos like this to learn and to get ideas of things to try. I have started experimenting with resin and of course the first few tries taught me a couple of lessons but I'm getting better at it. Thanks for sharing your skills! I hope you can ignore the people who get their jollies by criticizing others. I see that on other forums a lot and I think it's just the human condition. Some people are just like that. Looking forward to your next videos.

Oops, forgot to re-lock the dust bins before closing the access door at the beginning. Been there, done that!

Hey Peggy I enjoy your videos because you always offer some good turning points. I am fairly new to turning and am hungry for my own improvement. Thanks for what you do.

Hi Peggy: I watched you for the first time today and subscribed. I could tell you were quite bothered by prior comments people had left. People will always comment and some just have to be judgmental. It's because they just have a bad nature. When you are critical it should be in a constructive way and aimed appropriately. You live in a great part of the country. I wish you well.

Well done! I have experienced several “Napoleon Blownaparts” over the last 40 plus years. The most important key to injury prevention is the very points you mentioned. I like your lathe choice. I am looking to bring in a 18/36 for my “retirement” shop. Turning keeps me sharp and engaged. I like to give my projects to neighbors, family, Make-A-Wish and local church groups. Keep on turning on…

I hope you are okay Peggy .we have not heard from you in a long time, sending big hugs from across the pond, wishing you all the very best Martin

I have also had a problem balancing the bowls on a tenon , but mostly when i use a worm screw. I stabilised the worm screw in the chuck jaws by turning a disc to go onto the screw and fit exactly between the jaws. This improved it a bit, but not completely. I found that when i put spur drives that had a good point in both head and tail stock, they did not meet exactly point to point. I adjusted the headstock and it appears to have made a significant difference. I really cant explain why it mattered so much but it did. Maybe someone can enlighten me?
