- Sent to me by a subscriber, this chunk of wood is a real treasure! Woodturning what might be butternut, or maybe something a bit more dense, but either way, it was a challenge and a pleasure.
Thanks to Matt Enquist for the gift of this turn.
Thanks for watching, I sure appreciate your time and interest in what I'm doing in my woodshop! I've got some turning, carving, and burning ideas percolating in my noggin... Coming soon.

As a member of two families that are loggers, that is definitely butternut bark.
I recognize and respect your expertise, Samual! Thank you so much for the confirmation.
I'll tell you what I think. This is so beautiful, that it makes me want it. Never have I liked so much a wooden bowl. Way to go sir.
Sharp tools = Awesome shavings! Another brilliant piece Mr. Humphrey! Thank you for sharing your craft!
I Like it! The touch of glitter is just right! I would not complain if someone gave me such a gift!
Oh boy Rod this is some awesome wood grain wow. I am so glad that you and the other turners are showing us the inside of the awedome creation of God, a tree stump. That grain is awesome and stunningly beautiful.
Love your solution for those cracks...little rays of sunshine! Lovely stuff 💓💓💓
Thank you, I appreciate that!✨
Super fantastic 👍👌 my brother. Perfect thickness to show off the perfect thickness and layers of the bark. You never disappoint my friend and that's why I share your channel as much as I can. Plus the wife and kids love your stuff too.
I really appreciate that, Adam! And thanks so much for sharing my videos. Cheers to the wife and kids too!
Very nice of your friend to share this block with you; you really did it justice. I like your nod to the traditional Japanese porcelain bowl gold repair.
Thank you very much!
Good morning, Rod! The sights, sounds and aroma of wood shavings being removed can be very therapeutic. Slow, precise cuts eventually yield the reward. I enjoyed every moment. The Butternut bowl is a gorgeous piece. Thanks for sharing the process with us.

The nicest butternut I've ever seen, well done Rod!
Beautiful! Love the live edge. Thanks for your service by the way!

First time seeing butternut. Beautiful wood and beautiful work!
I love raw edge bowls...and this one us no exception...oh hang on, yes it is...its got gold in it, which makes it a treasure 💕
haha! Thank you, Dee!
The grain patterns in that wood is awesome. Very nice piece.
Good morning Rod,
This is a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing this video and your workmanship on it. You did a great job.
Love the natural edge Rod. The gold veins also a nice touch. Thanks, Steve
I was blown away by the grain on the bottom---I could see a hare and a bird. A beautiful bowl, Rod.
Thank you very much, Jill!
your videos are zen for me. when I see your notifications i run. its awesome man, I appreciate you sharing your skill and wisdom. love and respect
I appreciate that! 😊
Thank you Rod. That's a very interesting species of wood so I had to look it up and found it's related to walnut. It's just beautiful and you've certainly done it justice.
Semper Fi.
Great bowl and the way you fixed the cracks is inspiring.
Thank you very much!
Really nice. I love how butternut looks like butter, so smooth and silky.
Beautiful bowl made of really nice wood. Love the shape too.
That bowl is Awesome Rod, the color and grain is incredible !
Thank you very much, Doug! 😊
Thinking just that. I don't typically love when I attempt that shape of a bowl because it often feels clunky. You have made it elegant, Ron. And, I think that shaped is what maximized the amazing figure in the wood. Really enjoyed this week's video.
I totally agree
Ditto
One of the best live edge bowl I’ve had the privilege of seeing made. Thanks for the CA tip for the bark.
Thanks very much, Bob, I appreciate that! The thin CA glue soaks in quick and stabilizes the bark nicely. The stuff wants to run everywhere though, so make sure your wood is sealed or protected from staining first... hard lesson learned, lol
Having large glitter suspended in clear glue lends the appearance of it floating. Such is beautiful and unexpected.
Absolutely stunning Rod, very nice work! Thank you for sharing... God bless!
Thank you, my friend!
I found you about a month ago and have greatly enjoyed watching lots of your videos since. So much fun.
You found a beautiful bowl hiding in that chunk of butternut. Well done, Rod.
As a “new” wood turner, I really admire your work. I’m about to retire and I want to turn all the time! The bowl is beautiful and the wood is amazing!! I definitely need to find some butternut. I just acquired some 200 year old walnut boards from a friend who’s grandfather made violin’s. Anyway, I don’t want to talk your ear off! Thanks for the inspiration and great video!!!
mr Humphry you have done it again another great piece of worwework.
That is a beautiful bowl. I absolutely love the shape and bark edge. Great job, Rod!
I'm not familiar with Butternut, but the logger family comment has me convinced. Sure is pretty wood. You and Matt both did well with it. But his has the better character in the wood.
Semper fi brother.
As always that is a beautiful bowl! Great job turning.
Thank you so much 😀
Beautiful! I can just imagine it with some bright red apples in it,a little bit of sparkle makes the world go round,lovely little touch..,probably my new favourite!
Thanks so much 😊🍎🍎🍎🍏
i don't always like the live edge bowls but i like this one. very nice. and i gotta say, i like more of your live edge bowls than anyone else's. excellent
Rod that is one absolutely gorgeous piece of wood the grain is by far the nicest I have seen to date, I love the gold sparkle its a really cool way to finish a crack rather than trying to hide it 👍👍👍
Thank you, my friend!
Beautiful bowl, amazing grain ♥️
Nice looking natural edge. Love that Butternut.
Stunning! I love the natural edge bowls! Your talent is amazing! God bless you! Semper Fi!!
You're very kind, Ellen, thank you!
Beautiful wood...
OUTSTANDING work Rod...
you always leave me wanting more...stay safe...press on 😎 Joe
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Hay Marine, just wanted to say thank you.
Your bowl is beautiful, love the natural edge on it and the extra sparkle you added to it.
Looks absolutely great, nice job. Butternut, in my opinion, is the absolute best, its easy to carve, holds detail well, and has nice rich colors, unfortunately it must taste pretty darn good too, because all the bugs keep eating it. I love this wood. You are very lucky to get a nice big crotch piece like that, just stunning.
Rod you are a true Craftsman as usual. Semper Fi
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Very beautiful. The wood pattern is great. You have definitely made something special out of that bowl blank! Great work as usual 😀
Like your concept. Love butternut. Will try the glitter. Thanks for sharing.
Another Humphrey masterpiece!😎👍🏻👍🏻
That tool rest you made me really helped on this one! Thanks again, my friend.
Another great job. The "sparkle" was a cool add on.
Gorgeous feather in the bottom of that bowl! 👍🇺🇸
The bowl is exquisite! The glitter cheapens it.
Thanks very much, Carol! I knew it wouldn't be for everyone 😊
Really beautiful, showcases the grain so well, love the natural edge and finish
Enjoyable video ☺ 👍
What an exquisite piece, Rod. Such a joy to watch this video.
Is that what I think you call a crotch piece of wood? It looks like there's an intersection of grain from two sources, there. Or am I seeing it wrong? Really love this piece.
Nice job. I love love edge bowls and yours in butternut is gorgeous.
ooo ahh... this came out so beautiful I like the bit of sparkle too
Thank you! 😊
Hey Top! Just wanted to tell you Both my wife and I love your videos!
Semper Fi,
Roscoe
That grain is amazing! Great job! Cool trick with the CA glue and mica. I've seen you do it before, but it still impresses me.
Mr. Humphrey sir, gorgeous work as always.
Beautiful bowl with such depth and character.
The gold in the cracks is awesome!
I'm impressed by the finesse in your chainsaw skills in preparing the blank. And I learned a trick from you with the wax protection technique. Thanks for the beautiful work. Nice! Eph. 2:10
Thanks very much, Dave! great verse 😊
Love it, the wood is so pretty and really like the natural edge
Another beautiful bowl Rod. While I’m not a pro at identity wood species by any means and as one person already mentioned I too think it’s butternut. I love what you did with the cracks, I thinking I’ll have to try that on the next piece That has cracks that I turn.
Thanks very much, Scott! Yes, confirmed butternut, and interesting wood for sure.
Hey Rod, ya done and did it again; another beautiful wood turning. It is neat people from all over us country send you wood to turn. That goes to show you that you are an excellent wood turner and people appreciate your work.

Thank you very much, brother! I'm still percolating between the ears with the chunk you sent me... ☕
@@RHumphrey I would not worry too much about using that chunk of mesquite I sent you . That piece of wood is probably older than Methuselah and may only be fit for pen blanks. It’s a piece of dark mesquite; whereas the most common found is honey color and lighter in color.
You sir, are an artist.
Beautiful work as always sir love the grain in that wood thank you for sharing this God bless and semper Fi
Much appreciated!😊
Looks really nice, Rod. The grain is something special and you did a great job maximizing its potential. Take care.
Bill
Absolutely stunning bowl Rood . SEMPI FI

(This is Hana) I love this bowl! I especially like the cracks and the rim . My dad says to add that I am not asking for it until he gets his American flag bowl (greedy)😂
This is so very pretty! I love both the wood grain and the bark. Amazing job, Rod. 💜
