Добавлен 23 янв 2023
Ardwood Creations combines my two passions : art and woodworking. I first started off with electric guitar building, then woodworking, I've made furniture for my home sometimes in a rustic style, sometimes in a Maloof style but most of the time in Stickley style. Few years ago I discovered woodturning and it propelled my artistic yearnings, from pen turning to segmented turning.

Woodturning | a punky walnut shop stool
When woodworking with hand tools it's quite common to have to bend over the workbench or kneel down in front of it for the more precise work. I have been blessed with a bad back in my late 30s and now I have bad knees (yes, both of them) in my mid 40s. It is high time I built a shop stool. Luckily I have a slab of punky walnut perfect for the job. The only question is : will it hold my weight?
Quand on travaille sur un établi, il est fréquent de devoir se pencher ou s'agenouiller pour un travail plus précis aux outils à main. Les années passent et mes douleurs aux lombaires et aux cervicales, qui ne s'arrangent pas, sont accompagnées par des brûlures méniscales. Il est grand temps de me co...

Woodworking | a Stickley style buffet part 4: Drawers, Drawers everywhere, and all the boards...
Просмотров 1732 месяца назад
In this segment, I handcut dovetails on the drawers, tongues and grooves to slide the drawer bottoms in. I didn't show the sanding part because sanding is not fun but watching people sand is even less fun ;) Dans cette partie je coupe les queues d'aronde sur les tiroirs ainsi que les rainures pour glisser les fonds de tiroir. Je n'ai pas montré le ponçage parce que poncer ce n'est pas amusant m...
Woodturning | an off-centered maple bowl
Просмотров 2673 месяца назад
Today I turn an off-centered bowl from a blank of maple that's been sitting for ages in my workshop. As it isn't the best looking piece of maple, staining and texturing are on the table. The off-centered rim reminds me of a moon crescent, so a dark moon it is. Je tourne un bol désaxé à partir d'un morceau d'érable qui traîne dans mon atelier depuis très longtemps. Comme c'est loin d'être le plu...
Woodturning | a stickley style buffet part 3 : dividers and epoxy drawers
Просмотров 3376 месяцев назад
In this section, I add blackwood plugs to the legs, I glue up the frame, I dovetail and glue the horizontal and vertical dividers. I tackle the layout for the drawer fronts, I select and cut a couple of wild grain boards with bark inclusion that I intend to keep. I fill the voids with black tainted epoxy - it's actually my first epoxy pour, fingers crossed!!! Dans cette partie, j'insère des pet...
Woodturning | a blackwood hanko stamp handle
Просмотров 1377 месяцев назад
I took an uncommon order for a hanko stamp handle. The chosen woods are African blackwood, padouk and claro walnut. The customer will make the rubber stamp himself with his own logo. Blackwood is incredibly hard to turn but so rewarding when you apply the finish. J'ai reçu une commande peu commune pour une poignée de tampon hanko. Les bois choisis sont l'ébène du Mozambique, le padouk et le noy...

This is part 2 of the Stickley style buffet project where I glue the side panels to the legs, then I mortice the arched lower rails and dovetail the upper rails. Voici la 2e partie du projet "un buffet dans le style de Stickley" dans laquelle je colle les panneaux aux montants pour faire les côtés puis je creuse les mortaises pour les traverses du bas et je fixe les traverses du haut avec des q...
Woodturning | a two tone sequoia vase
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.9 месяцев назад
I turn a two tone sequoia vase from a branch. This is the first time I work with sequoia wood or redwood and I find that the contrast between heartwood and sapwood is absolutely stunning. So in this video I concentrate more on colours than shape. The wood is a little brittle but hard enough to turn well with caution and the grain is amazing. Now I'm not sure that I want to sell it... ;) Je tour...
Woodworking | a Stickley style buffet part 1: legs
Просмотров 2029 месяцев назад
Here's a woodworking project for my living/dining room: you can call it a chest, a high chest or a sideboard, I chose 'buffet' because it sounds funny in French and in English. I love Arts & Crafts furniture, I've already made a 'Prairie' sofa, a mission coffee table and a Morris chair, so I think it will fit nicely. I don't follow any plan, I just build it as I go. Risky? Right! Voici la const...
Woodturning | a big walnut bowl
Просмотров 12 тыс.10 месяцев назад
This is a twice turned walnut bowl : it was turned wet and left to dry for a year, then turned a second time to get it perfectly round. It is 28cm in diameter and 12cm high. It isn't that big overall but it was the biggest walnut trunk I had seen in my area. The spalting is always a nice bonus. Voici un bol en noyer tourné deux fois : la première fois il était encore humide alors je l'ai fait s...
Woodturning | the spalted grails
Просмотров 9 тыс.10 месяцев назад
I turned two cups from a spalted piece of hornbeam wood. I glued a walnut foot on one and a sipo foot on the other to add contrast and size. They are approximately 12cm in diameter and 9cm high. Voici le tournage de deux coupes en charme échauffé. J'ai collé un pied en noyer sur l'une et un pied en sipo sur l'autre pour ajouter du contraste et de la taille. Elles font environ 12cm de diamètre e...
Woodturning | a cherry bowl with turquoise milliput
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.11 месяцев назад
I turn a small cherry bowl with a turquoise milliput inlaid rim. This is my first project with Milliput : Milliput is an epoxy putty. Though the putty is quite easy to work, I'm not happy with the result: the inlay is cloudy, dusty and way too mat. The cherry blank isn't top of the shelf either. Je tourne un petit bol en merisier avec une bande de milliput turquoise incrustée dans le bord. C'es...
Woodturning and shaping a cubist vessel
Просмотров 334Год назад
I turned a spalted beech and sipo vessel that recalls the triangular shape of human characters in Cubist paintings, an exclamation mark that pinpoints the irony of our kind : headless monsters thriving on hope and ruin. I kept the irregularities of the piece to give it a more organic than a geometric feel. The hole is 120mm deep and 35mm wide. Voici un vase en hêtre échauffé et sipo qui rappell...
Pen turning | a segmented helix pen (the hard way)
Просмотров 256Год назад
I turned a segmented helix pen the hard way!!! I used offcuts from a dizzy bowl I made a couple of years ago. I selected the padouk-walnut-cherry parts for this 7mm slimline pen. I also cut some purpleheart-oak-pear parts for a later pen. The "hard way" is that the pieces are cross grain and not from a laminated pen blank. The padouk did "bleed" over the cherry creating an interesting fade. J'a...
Woodturning a cherry vase inspired by Gaudi

I turned a cherry vase in the shape of Gaudi's gothic arch in Palau Güell and reproduced the orange and gold wall and ceiling around the fireplace in Casa Battlo, then I added a ribbon to the colours of the Esteleda.

I turned an oak bowl with turquoise inlay on the rim, it's about 18cm in diameter and 8,5cm high, I used thin CA glue on the crushed stone inlay.

Pen turning | stylo plume en ébène royal
Man, with the wood as punky/rotten as you say, I hope it is strong enough to last.
Very nice antique look, great job! 🤩
Thanks a lot 👍 and it's quite comfy 🛋
Just beautiful. Well done!
Thanks a lot!!! Dovetails forever 🪚🪚🪚
❤😍
Thanks a lot!!!
Great size. I like some of the bigger pieces. Have you ever considered a double bowl? A smaller bowl in center of the larger. Retaining the details and grain of the wood. I enjoyed the video.
Now that's an interesting idea 👍 Thanks!
@@ardwoodcreations I used to draw, some painting, wood carving, and other arts. I studied under Monta Philpot Black. Many years ago. I had to go back to work and put my art down. Now disabled and struggling, I'm trying to pick it back up. Now the pieces I've done lately, just to get a feel for my pencil again, I keep giving away for kindness from others. 😌 I've always been good with my hands and have a good eye for flow and lines. I really like abstract designs in the wood. Accents grains creates a flow of lines. Keeps eye on (in) subject. Sometimes it takes a bit of hand work for the shapes. Good energy🏞️
Beautiful ❤
Thanks a lot :)
Outstanding work. Great video once again 👍👍
Thanks mate!!!
Nice work as always 👏👏👏👏
Thanks mate!!!
Beautiful bowl
Thanks a lot 🍻
I have two pieces of walnut that big. I have been turning for two years, and had them that long too, and now it’s time to turn them. Thanks!
Cheers mate! Walnut is a great wood to turn. Have fun!
Very nice
Thanks a lot!
Pretty cool. Spalted wood is fantastic looking.
Thanks! I demand more spalting 😀
Beautiful work!!! Have you ever worked with Catalpa Wood? Can you tell me how much it would be to have two wooden chalices made of Catalpa?
Thanks!!! I've never worked with Catalpa wood but maybe one day... I would charge around USD75 per chalice 🙂
That's really good 👍👍
Cheers, mate 🥂
It's so pretty. Especially that epoxy line is very amazing. nice idea!!👍👍
Thanks a lot 🍻
Great work as always.👍👍
Thanks a lot 😊
félicitations !! Je suis admirative de votre travail
Merci beaucoup ;)
magnifique travail, avec de belles couleurs estivales et lumineuses. j'aime la touche d'or qui amène un plus sur ce beau vase
Merci pour vos compliments ;)
Un magnifique travail !
Merci beaucoup ;-)
Génial je savais que le tours a bois était un super outil mais c'est encore mieux que ce que je pensais
Le tour à bois m'a permis de développer ma créativité et mon côté artistique, c'est un outil formidable!!!!!
Superbe ! C'est vraiment génial de voir le processus de création comme ça avec une vidéo sobre, sans musique, juste le bruit du travail et de la passion que tu as mis dans ce stylo ! La précision sur le tour à bois, c'est vraiment fascinant à regarder. En espérant en voir plein d'autres !
Merci pour les encouragements, je vais essayer d'en publier d'autres bientôt!
