Thank you so much Rick and thanks for such a beautiful piece of wood. It is just amazing. Do you know what kind of Cherry it is? I was completely blown away by the grain in this. Thanks again, Gary
@@ThePapa1947 this was a red sweet cherry that my friend in Blaine Washington had. It grew too tall to pick (birds got most of them) and when it grew into the powerlines it had to be removed. He was kind enough to give me the entire tree.
Thank You Gary, Thank You Rick... WOW Gary quite an interesting project that opens up unlimited variables.... What? (4:28) I think the glue up is exciting and a very interesting part of your process... This was a fun one Gary. One of these days. Decades far in the future from now folks will look at your work and wonder "how did this woodturner do this one???....TM
Thank you TM. Well if I showed it all the video would probably put most people to sleep. But most people do not drink as much coffee as you(and me) LOL Thanks for watching, Gary
Thank you very much Patricia. Epoxy has a place and it can look good. But I do not have that place in my shop. I may use a bit to repair something but that is about it. Thanks for watching, Gary
I’ve never seen that before and I really like it!! Since I find myself with an abundance of walnut these days, I’ll try to cut my own 1/8th inch laminate from that and pair it with hard maple or cherry. Thanks for another great idea!! That is beautiful! Cheers, Rick
Thanks Rick. I thought about cutting my own as well. I had these two pieces of veneer left so I used them. I have some walnut I cut cut into veneer as well. When my new bandsaw blades show up I just may do that. Thanks for watching, Gary
Thanks Doug. It sure lit up. I was afraid the curved lines would take away from it but it seems to work fine. Pretty sure there is one more piece in the box. Thanks for watching. Gary
John Beaver is the guy that developed the idea of the wave bowl and many variations of it. John is a great guy and deserves credit for sharing his method.
Thanks Greg. Pretty much the same idea as a Celtic knot. He most likely is the first who has shown it done on a bowl. I looked him up and he has some cool looking bowls.
I got quite a chuckle from your comment about safe and locatable. My husband does the same. It’s a running joke between us. The bowl came out amazingly beautiful. Great grain and shine. More would be great! I love your creativity!
Thank you very much Susanne. Oh this has been going on since we got married....Hey have you seen.......? Always ends up being in the last place we look LOL More will happen! Gary
Simple but impressive pattern, I think most people (including me before watching) would have no idea how it was done. Wood is *so* pretty, and lovely shape.
Thanks so much John. I sure like it as well. I think because it is pretty simple and has such a cool look to it. Maybe fancy is a better word. Thanks for watching, Gary
I have LOTS of 'safe places' in my shop. Yeah, it's a pain but I admit I kind of enjoy when I find something I'd thought was lost. Looking forward to trying this myself. Thanks!
Thank you very much Michael. Well I spent years thinking I had lost a really nice Starrett 6 inch rule. Then one day when moving a bench I found it had slid down the back of the bench and was hidden. It now sit on my computer desk where I measure small things with it. I do not allow it to go out to the shop LOL Thanks for watching, Gary
Thank you Ken! For sure a nice sharp blade and a with a constant slow cut will make for good joints. Thanks for watching. My video tomorrow will show another way of making that cut.
Thank you Mark. That is what is so nice about turning something like this. As you turn you see other options. I kind of change shape based on what I see in the grain. Thanks for watching, Gary
Gary, what a beautiful bowl. The cherry is gorgeous. The simple embellishment with the black venier is outstanding. And you topped it all off with an outstanding finish. I got to this party a bit late. I read most of the previous comments and have to agree. This is a real winner, as most (99.9% nobody is perfect but you are close) of your projects are. 👍👍Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and remember, as the wood goes around, the face shield comes down.🙂🙂
Looks great Gary! The cherry is gorgeous and the veneer lines add just enough without detracting. And every time I clean and/or reorganize my shop I put things away in places that make so much sense, yet I can’t find them next time I need them 🤣. Three more weeks in the sling and then I can start PT and (HOPEFULLY!) can get back in the shop. Definitely going to try something like this!
Thanks Lisa I actually lost that same tray months ago and put where I thought I could find it. But I guess I put something in front of it lol. So what's up with the shoulder? I had about 10 sessions of PT for my shoulder and got good movement back but it still hurts in the morning after sleeping. I may have to go back for more PT or have it checked out again. Gary
@@ThePapa1947I've had a torn labrum in my left shoulder for like 20 years. Tear in the right one too, but that only makes it so I can't throw things overhand, so no softball etc but the left one randomly dislocates and that has been getting more frequent. Every time it slips on and out of socket I imagine it stretched/tore things a little bit more so I finally decided to get it fixed. 6 weeks in a sling before I can even start PT, so it's a bugger of a thing - hard to be out of commission for that long! But I found a time where it isn't too detrimental and here I am. Arthroscopic surgery to reattach the labrum and the surgeon found a small rotator cuff tear that she repaired while she was in there. It's actually going really well - hardly any pain, and the surgeon is very happy so I'm gonna keep being a good girl and try to get through the rest of this without screwing it up. But I am having serious turning withdrawals! Only good part is I've had time to actually watch some videos instead of making them 😂
Awesome. I really like your videos. I have been turning a few. Years now and it is only right to blame it on you lol. I watch a video from you and off to the shop to try it. Thank you thank you Jerry
That is an absolutely gorgeous bowl, Gary! Really enjoyed seeing your technique of gluing and inserting the veneer! Thanks for sharing, buddy! 😎😎😎 Take care, …..Gord
That's a nice piece of wood Gary. Good looking bowl. I did a bunch of this style a few years ago. At that time I thought I'd invented the technique but I was a new turner then so there was a lot that I didn't know. And didn't know that I didn't know. I did two thing differently than you did. I cut the blank round and built a jig to fit my circle cutting bandsaw jig that let me cut the opposing curves at any degree of rotation I wanted. So I was able to have two off set sets of rings . 45 degrees to one another. And then I tried coloured construction paper. Multiple layers for that to build up the thickness. I could do green/red/green and do the second set with yellow/black/yellow. Or whatever looks right to you. Made for an interesting look. If you try that the wood glue won't hold it so you have to either use epoxy or after you turn the outside flood the exposed paper rings with thin CA. Then turn the inside and when you get close to final thickness flood the inside of the rings again. That works well. As you can tell that's not something for a production turner but for a hobbyist it's just fine.
Thank you Randy. I am afraid the wheel was invented long long ago. And that goes with most things done on the lathe. They most likely started with something not related to wood turning but can be used on our turnings This is one of them The way I cut two boards on top of each other is something I did as a wood patternmaker. Not to match two types of wood but to stack huge segments and cut them on an angle. What you got was angles that matched. Good for making tapered things. I like your idea on stacking the thin multi color veneer. Not real fond of the epoxy but I can see it would be needed. I was going to use my circle cutting jig to cut these but the blade I had in would not have liked that. My order of new blades came in today so the next one I will most likely use a jig. Thanks for watching, Gary
Proof there is beauty in simplicity! I'm glad you didn't overwork it and let the wood be what it was meant to be instead of trying to make it into something it wasn't. The natural pattern and movement of the rings around the bowl is just beautiful. If I had that in my house I would have it on a rotating pedestal because there is no "good" side and the simple, continuous flow all around should be showcased. It's like a museum piece. Stunning.
Thank you for your wonderful comment. That is just the way I feel about this piece. Just watching those rings as it slowly turns is amazing. I sure love it when I come across a piece of wood like this. I like your idea of having it just sitting an rotation letting the light bring life to the grain. Thanks again for watching and commenting. Gary
Thank you very much Al, I sure enjoyed making it. What was so fun was watching those lines crossing the way they did. But it all makes sense. Thanks for watching Gary
Great looking piece Gary. I met a turner from the states at TurnFest held on the Gold Coast in Queensland back in March this year. John Beaver. He does work very similar to this. Your bowl came out looking really good. As always thanks for sharing. Cheers Bruce
Awesome. I read one of your glue comments and I am so glad I did. I have Elmers glue and wondered what was wrong with it…?😅 I will keep using it. Thanks!!
Thank you very much Barry. Yup all I used for many years at work was good old Elmer's white wood glue. If it was good enough for gluing patterns for foundry use it should hold up for some segments. As a matter of fact I made segments for 6 foot diameter turnings and used Elmer's glue. I only switched to TB Original because where I got my glue they did not have Elmer. When the TB Original is gone it will be Elmer's for sure. That gallon jug is almost gone and the TB III is getting close. Thanks for watching Gary
@@ThePapa1947 it's late at night here, but this is the time of day that find out how can turn ugly into beautiful. My wife just loves the surprises in the morning after I work on a piece of artwork all night. It's my best time to work without interruption. Now what to do? That's always my biggest decision 🤔
I will watch this several times and try to figure out how you did it! That looks really sharp. I like the way you call your tool size and your RPM. That is a huge help. Well Done!
Yes it sure is. I am sure that is how this came to be in a bowl. Just goes to show you that there are very few original ideas. So you might say that who ever came up with the Celtic knot also came up with this with slight mods. Thanks for watching Gary
Gary , that is so cool ! I love it ! And you did a great job bringing out the grain in this piece of Cherry . Thanks for sharing and stay warm . Cold days ahead . In fact it's 32 degrees already down here .
Thank you Jon. Happy you liked it. It is 35 right now at 10:30 PM We just got over some pretty steady rain and the people across the road from us was getting their back yards flooded a bit. We have open ditch drainage and it was a bit blocked. We keep our side cleared as we let the grass grow their which helps. Thanks for watching, Gary
Thank you Bill. For sure a straight line would be just that in the finished piece. I think it is endless to what you could come up with. Thanks for watching Gary
Thank you so much Victor. The finish can make or break the piece. Sanding is the key to getting that finish. I have sanded the first coat off because of a very small scratch that was still there. The first finish is most likely a sanding sealer and many times that gets sanded anyway. So I do spend a bit of time making sure it is sanded the best it can be. Sometimes we have to live with tear out but there are ways to fix it so it does not look horrible. Thanks for watching, Gary
Interesting turning, Gary. I like the chatoyance of the wood. Despite the wood being a little hard, it did not seem to give you much trouble turning. It smoothed out very nicely after using your 1/2" bowl gouge towards the end. Ten thumbs up from this end of the Inner Web. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cool looking bowl! I like the wood bowl finish also. Started putting it in a stop loss bag, and it's good to the last drop. No matter how long you keep it.
Thank you very much. Yes for sure if I get anymore I will put it in one of those bags. Funny I find the Minwax wipe on poly to last much longer. But it is in a can with a small opening. Thanks for watching and the reminder of those bags. Gary
Really nice piece Gary. Glue ups interest me a lot as there's almost an infinite amount of designs & patterns that can be done. I'll build up my skill to them & get there eventually
Thanks so much Jim. Yes I enjoy glue ups a lot. Start with something fairly easy so you have success and build from there. In my mind I create the steps needed to get to the end and pretty much follow them. Works for me. Best of luck, Gary
I really enjoyed seeing this. I am not really artistic but I do copy others and often put my own twists to the pieces. I can’t wait to try this and see how it comes out.
Excellent job Gary I enjoyed this one. I'll definitely try this one around here the live edge and natural edge is really popular . Thanks for sharing!!
That look absolutely fabulous! Great choice of wood and accent, Gary. I'm working on a segmented bowl now that will use bamboo as an accent between rings.
Cherry is beautiful almost always. The Celtic knot idea was brilliant.
Thanks Stevio I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
Yes, more unique treatments, please. Bowl shape and wood both great. Well done, Gary!
Thanks Valerie! Lots of things are spinning in my head right now. Maybe that is why I feel dizzy LOL
Absolutely love it. I showed my wife. She liked it so much she invited me to make one for her. 😂 good thing I have more 🍒 wood.
Thank you so much Rick and thanks for such a beautiful piece of wood. It is just amazing. Do you know what kind of Cherry it is? I was completely blown away by the grain in this.
Thanks again,

Will do and I ordered some new bandsaw blades just for doing them.
Nice job Gary, very beautiful, glad you went back and reconsidered your shape . Very beautiful wood!

For sure a more complex one will be on the list.

Very nice, Gary! Just beautiful!
Thanks Billy. Already have another one planned that will be fun.

Beautiful piece Gary! A person could have a lot of fun with a number of different cuts/glue ups. Awesome work and as always thank you!!!
Thank you Mark. I certainly want to try more of these. Maybe something more abstract.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful piece. I wish i had a more robust band saw for this!
Thank you. Not sure what band saw you have but with the right blade and very slow cuts most will do this.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I will watch this several times and try to figure out how you did it! That looks really sharp. I like the way you call your tool size and your RPM. That is a huge help. Well Done!
Thank you. It is pretty easy.if you get stuck you can email me and I can help.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful!
Thanks so much Dick!
Gary
Nice project with a lot of POP! That was a nice piece of cherry and you have the eye of the artist. 🥸👍👀✅
Thank you Joe I appreciate your kind words.

Cool is the perfect word. Gorgeous.
Thanks Barry. Yeah us kids grew up using the word "cool"😎
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I forgot to mention lines on your finished product are unique and simply gorgeous.
Stunning, it's very similar to the way celtic knot is made.
Yes it sure is. I am sure that is how this came to be in a bowl. Just goes to show you that there are very few original ideas.
So you might say that who ever came up with the Celtic knot also came up with this with slight mods.
Thanks for watching
Gary
Love the design. Smart move to rotate 90 degrees to get the intersecting circles.
Thanks Michael there are a few other options I may try.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Are there other options for intersecting lines?
You could make a Celtic knot along with what ever you could imagine. Maybe cut vertical instead of horizontal and get some interesting looks.
So simple yet so beautiful Gary!
Thank you very much Laura. That is what makes the perfect turning. A simple turn and some fantastic grain like this one has.
Thanks for watching
Gary
Beautiful little bowl Gary. I love the effect. I’ve been meaning to try a Celtic design for a while. Might be a project for 5he new year.
Thank you Ron. For sure it would be a wonderful project for the New Year.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very nice I love the design. Another great video. Thanks
Thank you very much David. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Take care,
Gary
WOW! Neat way to sorta make a Celtic knot.
Thank you Stuart. For sure it is the same idea as a Celtic knot. I sure that is how it came to be.
Thanks for watching
Gary
Yes, more please! Merry Christmas
Thank you Jim and a Merry Christmas to you as well.
Gary
Gary , that is so cool ! I love it ! And you did a great job bringing out the grain in this piece of Cherry . Thanks for sharing and stay warm . Cold days ahead . In fact it's 32 degrees already down here .
Thank you Jon. Happy you liked it. It is 35 right now at 10:30 PM
We just got over some pretty steady rain and the people across the road from us was getting their back yards flooded a bit. We have open ditch drainage and it was a bit blocked. We keep our side cleared as we let the grass grow their which helps.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 IT was 28 this am down here . Going to be awhile before I get in the shop today . I'm working on a White Oak bowl .
Thanks Gary, that is an amazing piece of wood and your design is really cool, as always you do an awesome job.
All the best to you.
Regards Jim
Thank you very much Jim. I appreciate your comments they mean a lot to me.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Nice, Gary. That was a different result from when using a straight cut instead of a circular cut.
Bill
Thank you Bill. For sure a straight line would be just that in the finished piece. I think it is endless to what you could come up with.
Thanks for watching
Gary
Really nice effect lovely piece of wood too
Thank you very much Collin. For sure that wood is spectacular.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful chatoyance is incredible. Celtic knot decorates without over powering the piece and I gotta say you get some great finishes!!
Thank you so much Victor. The finish can make or break the piece. Sanding is the key to getting that finish. I have sanded the first coat off because of a very small scratch that was still there. The first finish is most likely a sanding sealer and many times that gets sanded anyway. So I do spend a bit of time making sure it is sanded the best it can be. Sometimes we have to live with tear out but there are ways to fix it so it does not look horrible.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Interesting turning, Gary. I like the chatoyance of the wood. Despite the wood being a little hard, it did not seem to give you much trouble turning. It smoothed out very nicely after using your 1/2" bowl gouge towards the end. Ten thumbs up from this end of the Inner Web. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks John. It was harder than I expected but it was very nice to turn. The grain is amazing.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Take care,
Gary
Cool looking bowl! I like the wood bowl finish also. Started putting it in a stop loss bag, and it's good to the last drop. No matter how long you keep it.
Thank you very much. Yes for sure if I get anymore I will put it in one of those bags.
Funny I find the Minwax wipe on poly to last much longer. But it is in a can with a small opening.
Thanks for watching and the reminder of those bags.
Gary
Really nice piece Gary. Glue ups interest me a lot as there's almost an infinite amount of designs & patterns that can be done. I'll build up my skill to them & get there eventually
Thanks so much Jim. Yes I enjoy glue ups a lot.
Start with something fairly easy so you have success and build from there.
In my mind I create the steps needed to get to the end and pretty much follow them.
Works for me.
Best of luck,
Gary
Very nice that is beautiful . Have a Merry Christmas .
Thank you Mike and a Merry Christmas to you as well.
Gary
Very nice - would love to see more, please.
Thank you Paul and for sure I will do more.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I really enjoyed seeing this. I am not really artistic but I do copy others and often put my own twists to the pieces. I can’t wait to try this and see how it comes out.
Thank you Frank. Have fun giving this a try.
Gary
A very intressting pice of work I do like it. Like you I do put things and I cant find them next time Bob Gloucester Englad UK
Thank you Bob, my mind seems to be on other things when I do put it away. I keep saying someday I will get a system LOL.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very cool! I need to get my tools out of storage. You're videos are my favorite on RUclips!
Thank you Steve I appreciate your comments.

Excellent job Gary I enjoyed this one. I'll definitely try this one around here the live edge and natural edge is really popular
. Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you Tim. I like them all and enjoy mixing things up a bit.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
That look absolutely fabulous! Great choice of wood and accent, Gary. I'm working on a segmented bowl now that will use bamboo as an accent between rings.
Thank you Qapla. What you are making sounds very cool.
Take care,
Gary
I like your teaching style.
Thank you Walt I appreciate your comments.
Gary
