I know this is from two years ago, but I'm just now watching it, and I have to say that when he broke through, I yelled out, "OH PETER NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
My heart sank when you went through the bottom. But faith was immediately restored with your quick thinking-on-your-feet save. Very nice and it turned out beautiful! Great job!
That was a great save Peter, well done. Hollowing endgrain... use a sharp scraper, or negative rake scraper, like the rest of us and you will get a pretty good finish with no grief... well, unless you get too enthusiastic. I learned that tip from a professional turner of 55 years experience and it works. Best Wishes, Brendan.
+Ratzmutz A 'bacon soda' is a meal made with fried Irish soda bread (bicarbonate of soda is the raising agent) and fried bacon, only bettered by the addition of a fried egg to make a 'bacon and egg soda'. Alternatively, you could have a 'sausage and egg soda' or, in extreme hunger, a 'bacon, sausage and egg soda'. A heart attack on a plate. Now you know. Best Wishes, Brendan.
+Wilson Phillips Now, that's something I've never seen done with fried soda bread, on toasted soda bread melted cheese is wonderful. You may just have opened a whole new culinary experience in Northern Ireland. I will give this a go. Thank you, Brendan.
You are a strong and... oh wait, wrong video. Nice save, Peter. It looks gorgeous. I would have liked to have a close-up view of the bottom to see how the plug "disappeared". When you first cut off the wings I said to myself that you had enough there to make a second box, so it is kind of funny how useful that turned out to be. So, cutting board next week? Ha!
+Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) I tried to show all the views. Sorry about that. You can see the circle on the bottom, but with all the joints, it sort of gets lost.
Next week you should do something with bones. Hey, you've conquered wood, resin, crayons and even salt. All that's left is animal matter, and bones is where it's at.
+Wilson Phillips yeah. Not cantered right you just get a chunk of intestine giving you a shit time. And liver smacking you in the face like your a college freshman.
Good save! Beautiful result :) PS: I clicked on both, box and cutting board. Hey, maybe a cutting board that's actually a box too! "Secret compartment cutting board" - good for about 1 billion views :D
Very good job! I would have straight up thrown the box in the fire if I blew through the bottom like that. Thanks for showing that mistakes like that are fixable!
awesome project. I love watching your videos even though i don't have anything to do with woodworking, its just relaxing to see you turn, plus you are funny! :D
The amount of restraint you showed during the little mistake was admirable. You are an inspiration to me, to look at these moments as learning opportunities and not to become crestfallen.
Awesome video. Loved that you kept your mistake in and showed a solution. For budding woodworkers such as myself it helps to see that not everything will be perfect right away.
Man, you're one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I absolutely love the fact that you don't edit your mistakes out; I've learned a lot watching you mess up and find a fix for it. Great stuff man, keep the videos coming.
The grain that comes out from the herringbone pattern is amazing. It almost looks like regular grain, not glued-up boards. Very neat idea to try for other projects. Thanks!
this makes me feel incredibly at ease knowing that even very skillful "famous" woodworkers make mistakes and that it's never a bad thing. I've lost count the number of times I've been ready to give up thinking I don't have what it takes to craft wood.
It is such a relief to see someone go through the bottom, and that you came back from it? Amazing and inspirational (in a "wow he came back from something difficult, so can I" way). Thank you
+Jose Quintela I was sad that this wasn't done. It was suggested in the previous video, but now the ship has sailed. I don't think doing slight alterations of projects is a good idea, and this is a good box too. Keep up the good work Peter, your videos are very entertaining. My favorite series is Dip It, so dip some more, wackier things with epoxy (Maybe a live gerbil!)
+Jose Quintela it would be really cool if he would make a cutting board that you could slide open and store your different knives into. and maybe for an added touch put a knife sharpener on the side? or something like that.
Wow. Absolutely beautiful. When you went through the bottom I actually gasped. But then you fixed it. You sir, are a true craftsman. I can't tell you how many times with my own crafts I've made mistakes and just run with it. To me, that's a sign of true skill. The ability to adapt and work around mistakes. I also love that you showed us how you fixed it -- now anyone else who decides to try this will be armed with the knowledge and some ideas on how to fix things should they ever need to. Again, gorgeous work. I want it. :)
Peter, Thank you for the recommendations on beginner videos and the book. I saw the subtle nod toward my comment. I got a wood lathe for Christmas after years of wanting to learn turning. Finding your videos this past year really kicked up my interest again. Thanks again!
I think this is the best box you've made yet! I really like the way it looks and the stain you added to it really makes it look nice. I also like that you didn't cut out your mistake from the video and instead showed us how you would fix a problem like that, it made the video even more interesting in my opinion! Keep doing what you're doing, you're a really skilled craftsman
Sad to see the workpiece break Peter. I was making a decorative spindle the other day and accidentally dropped it and broke it in two. I glued it back together but it just doesn't look the same. I'm glad to see that yours was recoverable and the end result was spectacular. Keep up the great work Peter!
Peter, you always amaze me man. You are a very gifted craftsman and you keep me eagerly waiting to see what you will make next. Thanks for always entertaining us all!
Nice save on the bottom there. I saw that and immediate thought was to have a stylish inlay in the bottom of the box. Kind of a surprise when people open it. But then you showed the cutoffs and I was like, right, those things. Very beautiful box, glad you went the box route.
I came from the other video, I'm so happy you made a box. The herringbone is so pretty and a cutting board would only get damaged over time.. The box would withstand the test of time much longer.
Peter you were so lucky to have those left overs from the first cut! Nice and lovely box! Keep the work up my friend because the art of handcrafting it's beautiful and poetry in wood :)
You showed excellent restraint, not letting a cuss fly when you broke through the bottom. I said a swear for you.
I imagine he cusses a lot off camera
I know this is from two years ago, but I'm just now watching it, and I have to say that when he broke through, I yelled out, "OH PETER NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
I heard the audio cut out after he said darn it @4:16
@@ghostbeebuilds Yep good observation. Still a super weak reaction though, I would've been swearing for two straight minutes if that happened to me

For a second I thought you were going to go with plan c, bracelet. Nice save
Sanding fixes all sins
Imma go sand myself I'll be right back
then they never returned....
Aladdin Nope, still here. But the sin didn't go away.
keep sanding
I live to see comments like this
Aladdin It's taking away everything but the sin.

Wow, it was an apocalyptic moment when you applied the oil! Those end grain patterns look amazing!
+Scrap wood City Thanks! Walnut is so cool that way. It was almost too dark for the camera to pick up...
challenge: make a cutting board that is also a box. You can store things inside it.
+Luke Den Hartog I love the idea. I really do.

Turns out cowardice polishes up quite nicely
I love how you're not afraid to show when things go wrong and showcase your mental acrobatics of how to work through them.
Nice box and even nicer save. Well done there, Peter. Well done.
+John Walsh thank you!
My Dad is a carpenter at work and makes furniture/stuff for your house in his spare time. Walnut has always been my favorite wood ever!!!
Very good job! I would have straight up thrown the box in the fire if I blew through the bottom like that. Thanks for showing that mistakes like that are fixable!
Beautiful! I have several bowls & wooden toys that my dad made back in the 60's & 70's. Never realized how much work goes into those
awesome project. I love watching your videos even though i don't have anything to do with woodworking, its just relaxing to see you turn, plus you are funny! :D
This, to me, is the essence of making ANYTHING. Making mistakes, and then rolling with it. Well done!
"It's not a flaw, it's a feature!"
wood turning looks so therapeutic
I think when you fix a mistake is when I learn the most! Sorry that happened to you and thank you for including. Beautiful!
you should make something out of nothing but leftover shavings
doing what you're not
So, basically reinventing MDF pressed board and turning it..... I like it! :D
Do you think he could cast shavings in resin? Does that fit the requirements of your request, or is that count as using something besides shavings?
The amount of restraint you showed during the little mistake was admirable. You are an inspiration to me, to look at these moments as learning opportunities and not to become crestfallen.
Great save....I was thinking a bracelet at the point the bottom came out.
Awesome video. Loved that you kept your mistake in and showed a solution. For budding woodworkers such as myself it helps to see that not everything will be perfect right away.
+BaronZombie I can almost guarantee you every woodworker can find a mistake in ANY project they make! You're not alone. :)
Hey Peter! Have you ever tried your hand at making a music box/figurine/snowglobe?
Man, you're one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I absolutely love the fact that you don't edit your mistakes out; I've learned a lot watching you mess up and find a fix for it. Great stuff man, keep the videos coming.
TEAM BOX WOOOO... IN YOUR FACE TEAM BOARD!! :)(So weird seeing you actually turning regular wood. :) )
+Tom Murphy Ha! Go Team BOX!
It was strange to be just making a wooden box...
+Peter Brown Couldn't you just make a board using the herringbone pattern? I mean it's not like that was the only wood you have in your shop.
+Zac Fitzgerald You're absolutely right. I totally could! But the fun was the choosing. So now, I'm off to another crazy idea. :)
the turning brought out some very interesting aspects of the glue up. doing this in differing species of wood would be even more striking.
What a beautiful box, I love the wood
+Emmmmmyyyyyyy I'm surprised nobody has made an innuendo....
+John Marston (ThePepsiMan) OH YEA BB GET THAT NICE WOOD IN THERE SHOVE THAT WOOD IN MY BOX
WaffoesGaming John Marston Dammit xD I hate both of you xD
It turned out gorgeous! What a great example of not giving up and making it work.
That one time his bandsaw sees timber
I'm continually in awe at how beautiful this is
You made something out of the right stuff. I am impressed. nice work and nice video.
+Symon Fobbester Don't worry. Nothing will be right about my next project....
+Peter Brown
That's the Peter Brown I expect. Nice work.
The grain that comes out from the herringbone pattern is amazing. It almost looks like regular grain, not glued-up boards. Very neat idea to try for other projects. Thanks!
I think using a different wood when you repaired the bottom would have looked amazing!
Especially if he stacked the different wood on the rest of the walnut so it looks all walnut from the outside then you look in and BAM it's oak.
+Bailey Ohrt A contrasting wood can be a pretty fix too! Here's a oops from a few years back... i.imgur.com/i4PHHPV.jpg
What a lovely box. I really like the look after the finish was applied. This is my favourite piece of 2016. Thanks for showing the build and the save.
Nice job Peter!
+RetroWeld Thanks Douglas!
Wow, that was a stellar fix Peter! That box turned out just plain amazing, great shaping on it and that grain... just wow!
When you broke through the bottom I thought "what, but there was a finished product in the thumbnail, you can't destroy it!"
I have to admit, box was a really good call, the curves and hard edges work fantically together, beautiful repair work too by the way!
Could you make a hollow cutting board? One big enough to store a few small pairing knives or slightly larger ones?
Brilliant recovery on the bottom. I'm actually happy it happened so we could see you're design adjustment. Thanks!
Nice job and a good save, Peter! Also, the only thing you CAN'T turn on your wood lathe is...wood?
this makes me feel incredibly at ease knowing that even very skillful "famous" woodworkers make mistakes and that it's never a bad thing. I've lost count the number of times I've been ready to give up thinking I don't have what it takes to craft wood.
4:08 i think you thought outside the box 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
ok its not funny 😢
He thought inside the tube. RUclips that is!
NoDotAh ohhhh yeah!!!!😄😄😄😄
It is such a relief to see someone go through the bottom, and that you came back from it? Amazing and inspirational (in a "wow he came back from something difficult, so can I" way). Thank you
You should try making stuff out of books
3 years later and he did it
You turned this beautiful piece of wood into something even more beautiful! Congrats and thx a lot for sharing!
next up cutting bored box
YEAAAAAS I WANT TO SEE THAT!

I was thinking of the same thing
your videos help me calm down when my OCD and PTSD flare up. Thanks for the help peter. I love your work
I still think it should have been a cutting board ...its good but I think a cutting board would have been better
no
+corbin barber a cutting board would have been way better than a box.
+Christine Moore Now he can make the cutting board and have two things.
You can tell how good a woodworker is by how well he hides his mistakes.
Nice AutoDesk shirt.
As +Jimmy Diresta would say... Sexy. (the box, not the shirt)
+Michael Gomez Great job, now you've gone and offended his shirt.

It's really gorgeous. Nice job.
it is nice for us beginners to see more experienced woodworkers make mistakes, and then fix them! nice video :)
Yes 😍 my mothers dag, did this turning she still have a one White a top going out of it, and i love it.
So awesome! This turned out really cool and I'm glad you went with the box. Great turn!
