Wow, look how young you look.

Al; That method of re- re- mounting the bowl to finish the bottom is something I need to learn. I tried it twice on almost finished bowls, and launched them for a tour of the shop. I guess the friction pad/block that I had on the head stock side was wrong, as the dang things both shimmied out from between centers. I keep the broken parts on my bench to remind me.....

I have never seen so many beautiful art pieces in my life. This man is very talented. So glad I went there yesterday and and got some of his pieces.

nice work love it

You cannot put me on the spot here. I like both of them. They each have features that I like. Both are appealing woods and the overall shape is much alike on each of them. So, sorry, I won't stick my neck out for one over the other. Thank you for sharing and please stay healthy.

Well done again Al. Here in Western Australia we have similar looking timber which is called Sheoak (a native) which comes in varying colours from pale pink through to a very dark almost brown, like your piece. When it is matched with something like a rich jarrah or a pale olive wood it makes for an interesting contrast. Thank you..

Always a treat to see your work. You are a treasure to watch. During the texture band part, would it have been better to have the lathe speed slower so that the texture would not stumble and cancel itself?

Both have wonderful shape and are excellent turns, done by a skilled hand. But thinner usually feels more elegant than thicker. And while I might be thicker in body, I do prefer thinner in my turnings.

I think I would have taken that small piece of lacewood you parted out and glued it to the ash and then made my top with a small white line of ash showing only. But you are the artist. Nice piece though.

Man this video helps so much being able to hear your thought process, watching your tool angles, etc. Thank you! Question, since i know you use a variety of quality of tools.... how much does the cut quality vary with cheapness of gouge? As a beginner i say my best cut leaves me starting around 100 grit sanding. I'm using a hurricane bowl gouge.... would a higher quality tool help me get a better finishing cut or do I just need to keep practicing?

Me use quality tools? are you confusing me? I used the hurricane 99% of the time and the rest is a HF tool LOL A good sharp edge from top notch or cheap give you the same finish the difference at times is how often you might need to sharpen and I am not so sure about that either.

@@AlFurtado Yah the blue lint free shop towels aren't really a cloth. They break apart just as easily as a paper towel does, they just do not leave little bits of paper in your finish like a paper towel would.

Hey al wish I could get my hands of some of them beautiful bits of wood here in Scotland, it’s definitely harder to get here anyway check out my Instagram page you might like some of the things I have made as well hopefully it’s iplwoodworks

Al, I am not criticizing you but the one thing that everyone preaches is safety! You really need to do the same! NO mask or face shield? You are sanding Lacewood and inhaling any and all wood dust is hazardous to your health! And Lacewood is a skin irritant! So for YOUR safety and that of others please start wearing a mask and face shield in your videos! You are a major motivation and influence on a lot of people including me, and safety first should be something that you preach and practice, best way to do so is lead by example! PLEASE don’t take this as an insult! Also, in so far as being more experienced with the lathe, the old saying is familiarity breeds contempt. Worrying about you and your safety has nothing to do with safety.. I just want to keep on watching you and your videos! Ormond Fine Fractal Art & Custom Woodworking.. Stephen!

And the only reason for a face shield is not only flying objects but it will also cut down on some of the particulate matter you are injesting that’s all. Just worried about your health and others! Turn on brother you are very enjoyable! Thanks!!
