Seven years ago I volunteered to build an ADA ramp for an elderly couple who couldn’t afford to have it professionally built. I was admiring his beautiful butternut trees. The husband scoured his yard to give me a handful of butternuts to plant. That was a “payment” money can’t make. Now I think of this every time I see butternut.

I use a lot of punky wood making my keepsake boxes. What I do is use a watered down poly and apply it to the wood before I get into it. It absorbs the poly and makes it stronger to work with. Maybe apply the sanding sealer to the punky parts and see what happens with the cutting.

I was excited to see the crotch figure in this piece! While it’s a beautiful turn, Phil, it is a little disappointing with regard to wood grain character. Eight weeks ago I turned a cracked and pithy piece of hard dense wood I still cannot identify. I’d glued and epoxied cracks. Taped the outside tightly when I hollowed it. After taking the tape off, it needed to be refinished because of the sticky residue it left. I went back over and sanded to 800, used sanding sealer, and then micro shine. I even took out a wool bonnet to buff the micro paste. I noticed the lid fitting needed just a tad better clean-up so I reached past my mask to grab a negative rake… POW! The bowl blew in three pieces. Thirteen stitches in my cheek later, a concussion, nerve damage, and a seven inch scar later I can talk about this stupid mistake. The laceration went clear through and wood chips came out when the cut was irrigated. Tomorrow is the first time I’ll use the lathe again after this accident. I got an airflow mask now. Every time I hear you say, “Mask and face shield on” I reflect on your reminder. That one, last, itty-bitty micro clean up on a lid setting almost cost me my life had that bowl hit my forehead of eyes. Thank you for your talents and reminders each week Phil!

That piece of wood was quite challenging. You did an admirable job with what it provided and the bark does have some interesting features. I agree, the bottom looks quite nice; I think it would look very cool with a clock movement in it -- the size of the recess is about the right diameter for something like that. Best of luck with the computer upgrade. I remember when getting a new computer was an exciting event because of all the new features and capabilities that came with the upgrade; it has now become more traumatic than exciting. I will say that upgrading has become less traumatic after migrating to the Apple environment -- the last several upgrades have been really very transparent and painless.

Yeah, this one tried my patience, Doug. Thanks a lot, my friend! 😊

Phil, I think you don't give yourself enough credit. It's another great looking piece! Art out of firewood is always a good thing, especially in your skilled hands!👍🙂

Hi Phil this piece ofButternut is really wonderful I like the grain and colour and the markings in it I totally love this wood. The bark is awesome it looks lovely. The key, coin live edge dish is magnificent and unique. The finish you used really made the wood and bark stand out I really love it well done Phil. Take care all the best with change over of computers from Amanda xx❤❤

Thank you, Steve! Today's the day, I hope to be up and running by dinner time. Not finished, just running! 😊

The inside has a beautiful honey glow and I think it’s beautiful.
