Woodturning an Old Red Oak Log

  • Old, weather beaten, gnarly, and insect eaten. Just the kind of log I find irresistible! I had a long time subscriber stop by my workshop a few days ago and drop off some wood he harvested from a fallen tree the fell on a road during a recent blustery day. I told him there was no guarantee I'd even use it... but I've had it on my mind non stop since he dropped it off, lol...
    So, Greg Spangler, or rather, Woody, I very much enjoyed meeting you and talking shop with you! You're a highly skilled woodworker and I'm honored to have you among my subscribers and friends! Thank you so much for thinking of me when you cut up that old beast of a tree!
    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! This will be my last video of 2021. I'll be back in the new year rested and rest for new wood working adventures. Wood turning, burning, carving, cutting, shaping, and shaving...
    God bless you all, and thank you so much for your support through subscribing and viewing! You humble me, and I appreciate that very much.

    Sterilizing the bowl by shock freezing it for a couple of days in the freezer might have been a good idea.

    The bowl looks good to me despite the cracks and big trails. Nice job MSgt Humphrey.
    This video gives me some encouragement on turning some bitch that has nothing but bug trails going through it. Last piece I tried turning ended up in the firewood pile since hi was totally dissatisfied with its appearance and would not finish well with all the small bits of wood dust that came from it.
