Woodturning - Yew Just Can't Beat It
In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a yew log into a lidded box.

Very cute
I was impressed that Yew turned it so that the lip of the cap fit over the rim of the cup. If any liquid happens to be splashed on the cup it won't wind up inside.
I love this little box so much! Perfect shape!
Very nice sir have a great day
sweet move brother, it came out really nice
What a gorgeous little piece, the inclusions give it such character. I only ever find yew with too much character: hollow or with knots falling out 😂.

Hey Chris, A change in the KZread algorithm seems to have reset the history on my entire channel. This means that my back catalog of videos is no longer getting views and the channel as stands can no longer be sustained. In hope of pulling this back around I’m reaching out to all you guys who I know to be loyal viewers and asking for as much engagement as possible with my past and upcoming videos. This means watching the videos through from start to finish without skipping, pressing the like button, engaging with comments and making sure you have pressed the bell icon when you subscribe. Sharing on social media or with friends via WhatsApp, or letting my playlists run through (for the dog to watch while your at work 😉). For those of you who don’t know, my new video’s are always on a Friday at 12:00PM GMT. It’s been great fun making these videos for you all and I still have many fresh and exciting ideas to share with you. Hopefully with your help we can get past this! Thanks in advance for the support.

Cheers John. It’s a scraper of my own design. I’m sure others have done the same.. it essentially acts like a drill bit down the centre but then cuts like a negative rake scraper on the side of the tool. Meaning you don’t have to try to cut directly into endgrain and instead cut the side grain from the inside out. It’s a bit unusual but it works a treat. 😊

Beautiful piece of wood, from beginning to end, where did you aquire it?? The bark type is something I've never seen before. Also, what is the purpose of using the shavings to rub on the wood? I've seen you use this technique before and curious as to why?

Hi May. I’ve had those Yew logs for that long I can’t quite remember where I acquired them. A friends woodpile most likely. I am acquainted with a lot of local tree surgeons and groundskeepers. The technique is called burnishing. It is used to add a sheen like finish to the wood. 😊👍🏻

We were given a piano recently though and I am trying to teach myself Jazz. I placed it next to the kitchen so I have to walk past it a lot. Means I can play it for 2 minutes pretty regularly haha.

Great turning. If I may be so bold as to recommend one improvement and that is to create a little decor on the base even if it's only a few circles. I'm a hobby turner and entered a piece into a competition judged by the great Nick Agar. I lost a few points becuse I didn't do a little more with the base merely to show that I'd given thought to it.

@JackMackWoodturning
Жыл бұрын
No. The dust is as dangerous as all other wood ( all wood requires lung protection) and if your working with it when green wash your hands before eating.. most important of all is to not eat the leave and berries and also bark. But unless you plan to eat the shavings your okay just treating it the same as any wood
that looks like a piece that was over two hundred year living when someone cut it down. Did you know the inner bark has the chymical taxonomy that can stop the spread of cancer.

You can eat off it.. just because yew trees contain taxines doesn’t render the wood poisonous. The toxin is least present in the wood vs other parts of the tree. Yew berries and leaves are a serious issue for dogs and children or I guess uneducated foragers. Once wood is seasoned the toxin is hardly present in the timber. I understand why people say this about yew but having researched the topic in great depth and having worked with yew for 2 decades I know it to be incorrect.. we have a yew fruit bowl at home that’s been in use for over 10 years with no issue. Iv turned green yew all day every day for weeks on end in shorts and a tee shirt being sprayed with sap (tree blood) with no I’ll effects. I used to be very cautious with it as a young woodturner. Caution is always preferable to stupidity. But knowledge and experience is everything 👍🏻
@judithflow3131
Жыл бұрын
Thank you both for the replies. I am still wary about it, though I also did learn by now that especially the leaves are poisonous and that the berries are actually edible, provided you remove the seed (and I'm still not gonna try tasting them). Maybe I'll try making a yew bowl sometime. It should be slightly less prone to cracking than plum, which is my favourite wood. I know I don't do myself a favour with my preference in materials, but when they work out, they always exceed my expectations. I'm even considering learning myself to cast epoxy, so I could still use my cracked plum blanks..
