Woodturning - The Log That Bleeds Red!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I'm Back! After a bit of time away from posting new original videos on the main channel I'm back and planning on uploading at a more regular pace.
In this video I take a large piece of Box Elder and turn it into a signature vase. I am really pleased with how this one turned out even though I would have liked to have seen some of that pinky/red wood in the final design, its a shame it seemingly stayed close to the pith. I do have a crotch piece from the same tree that was given to me by my arborist mate Connor so looking forward to turning that soon and seeing the grain! Stay tuned!
This vase was sanded to 3000 grit and finished with three coats of Danish oil and a coat of wood wax.
Let me know what you think!

My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.

Yes, I certainly am. I love your work!
Beautiful, and I LOVE the angled rim on this, it really makes it! Got to admit I was a little nervous when you stuck a gloved hand inside the spinning piece for sanding around the @6:40 mark; it showed err... true dedication, shall we say.
Love Flaming Box Elder.
I recently cut a limb off a tree in my back yard and saw the red color inside. At the time I didn’t know what kind of wood it was but I kept it to turn later. Good to know that it is Box Elder.
Beautiful, Harry!

Thanks for watching! This is Box elder, it's the first time I've ever had the pleasure to turn it 😄
First thing I was taught spindle turning was from largest to smallest diameter so you’re not pushing into the end grain. It goes easier and you get a better cut and finish.

and then other times you just have to go with the grain takes ya🦧
Nice work. The top bugs the ever loving heck out of me but that is just me.
That base you cut it off from looks interesting. Did you make something out of that part? Looks like it had the same red grain in it. Bleeding red in a piece of wood, what exactly does that mean?
Where do you get your medallions for your signature made? Thanks!!! Clark
Beautiful work harry as usual Well done mate What is the wood
🆒😎👍

Aren't you worried about cracking, sinterklaas the pith is still in there?
@michaelsorensen7567

Probably will over time. Looks like it was a fairly green log. Couple things will help it to not. 1) it's sealed, so moisture won't change SO much as a result. 2) it's turned now, so for most of the log there isn't any pith, but there's still some structural tension in the wood keeping it together. My guess is it warps a bit as it seasons, and isn't a true circle in six months. If it does crack, likely to be at the base
