@@IanMacWoodturning well I'm certainly not short of if and with upgrade carbide tools hopefully should turn out nice. Relatively new to turning so still learning. 🏴👍
Wow what a beautiful piece of wood. I think you really meant to say “the most hated tree in the world” because of all the disputes it has caused. Would love to get my hands on some of that but something tells me it’s probably not available in Texas.
Great Vase. I have never heard of "Leylandii" so I googled it to find out what kind of tree/wood you were working with. That piece you are working with has some very nice grains to it.
Thanks John! It’s mostly used by people here to line their property for privacy, nobody really uses it for anything but I think it’s perfectly fine wood.
The wood looks like a piece of Western Red Cedar. Don't know why its considered the most hated wood. Native American Indians of the Pacific Northwest used it for years. The stips of the bark were woven for many items. They carved canoes from them, as well as totem poles. The turning looked nice.
Sorry but what is the wood and y is it the most hated? Looks like a nice piece of pine, which I certainly don’t hate. I’ve made some amazing pieces from it
Hey Scott, It's called Leylandii, it's all over the UK and generally isn't used for anything, people don't even use it for fire wood. I like it though, it doesn't seem to warp or crack and dries quite quickly.
Poplar was used for cart and truck beds I think. I've heard that referred too as a hated wood! I've put tonnes through the woodchip over the years, but couldn't say whether it dulled the blades particularly, but have never sawmillled any.
@@IanMacWoodturning Very common in eastern US, also. I have planted 30 or 40 of these on my couple acres and have grown several from cuttings. I think easy cloning is one of the reasons these are so common.
I thought you were talking about Russian Olive. I have a brand new Fiskars hatchet that just bounces off 5 year old pieces of Russian Olive. Hard, tough wood.
PLEASE, No one should reach down in front of the band saw blade to remove a piece while it is running and be very careful with round logs going into the blade as the downward force can catch and cause the wood to spin down and possibly draw your hand into the cut as well. Nice piece, but want to warn the lesser experienced as I had a finger cut to the bone by a band saw and it taught me several lessons that my wife will not let me forget.
I have no wish to cause problems for Ian Mac but presenting a round piece of wood to a bandsaw without wedges is foolhardy. Like most things in life I've learned the hard way and had a serious catch as the wood caught the bandsaw blade and pulled my hands towards it. I got off lightly but one could easily lose a finger or two with such carelessness. To those who are entering woodturning a round piece of timber should only be put to the bandsaw blade if it's wedged in a 'V' shaped piece of wood to prevent it being 'snatched'. Otherwise an excellent example of woodturning from a common piece of wood.
Gentle reader .... if you feel challenged & endangered about a bandsaw, I strongly suggest you stay far away from lathes. They are so much fun .... where as you are probably not.
You are being satirical & this point ??? ..... attempting to be a bit "smart" & ironic ??? The man had the guts & set aside the time to produce this. Do not knock him. You my darling as a closet bully.
@@richjones5432 Actually I have been turning for 20 years and I stand behind my statement and the other comment I received. Always support your piece to keep it from rolling down with the force. It is physics.
As a now production woodworker and 30 veteran of emergency medical services , for the love of god drop a 6-8” bubble around that bandsaw blade, and never cut a round log on a bandsaw with out using some type of jig that holds the log(not you’re hands!
Looks like a peice of cedar, if it is I can't say it is the most hated wood. The only problem, I find, is the sanding produces dust like talcum powder. The grain is usually pretty nice though. This is a decent looking piece. I hate it when turners use their lathes as anvils or paint booths.
In the UK this stuff is everywhere and it's not used for very much, people say that they bushes are eyesores and it's generally not very well liked. There are lots of articles where people explain in more depth
Please,come on!!!!! How many more videos are we going to see people on a lathe with long baggy sleeves etc? If you are going to put videos up for viewing, wear the proper attire. This is teaching the new comers to wood turning the totally wrong thing!!😤
I love Leylandii and I love this project!! Thanks Ian.
Thanks for watching Jen! If you email me your address I’ll send it to you 😊
Such a beautiful grain, love the style you chose for the vase
Thanks mate!
Nice job looks amazing. I have an abundance of this stuff in every size imaginable. Might need to have look doing something with this. 🏴👍
It’s decent stuff to be honest mate, it seems to never crack or warp, it’s weird how easy it is to work with, without problems 👍🏻
@@IanMacWoodturning well I'm certainly not short of if and with upgrade carbide tools hopefully should turn out nice. Relatively new to turning so still learning. 🏴👍
It's beautiful with fantastic grain. Great job!
Thanks mate’

Haha certainly caused some disputes in these comments!
I would not have believed it. It’s a fantastic piece. I’m on the look out for some leylandii.
It's a lot nicer wood than people say!
Great as usual Ian! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Umberto!

Cyprus Leylandii or Monterey cyprus
Nice grain and knots! Neat shape!
Thanks Gwynn! Hope you’re doing well 😊

It says in the description that it's leylandii
It may be hated, but you created a beautiful piece with it.
Thanks Linda!
Very nice another beautiful piece.
I have never seen a drill bit static and the wood revolving before. Thanks.
Cheers Steve
Very Nice. We're going to take up a collection and get you a bigger brush...........
Hahaa you would think I’d have gotten a bigger brush by now
Maybe someday you can move up to a larger brush for applying finishes.
I'm saving up my money for one..
Beautiful Ian.
Thanks Jack!
Always thgt Ley was a just a lesser Yew and Yew is fab to work with.
Amazing grain
Gute Arbeit, schön geworden
Thanks my friend
Nice work, thanks for sharing
Thanks Allen!
Is it Leyland cyprus or western red juniper? I've turned lots of red juniper - it cuts beautifully.
Hey mate, it's Leylandii
Beautiful work Ian...where did you order your Branding Iron from? Thanks
Hey mate! I think it was from a site called stampsdirect.co.uk
Sorry but what is the wood and y is it the most hated? Looks like a nice piece of pine, which I certainly don’t hate. I’ve made some amazing pieces from it

Is that wood they make flatbed trucks out of? All blades are dulled by it?
Quite possibly mate, I wouldn’t say it necessarily dulls the blades, usually just covers them in resin 😂
Poplar was used for cart and truck beds I think. I've heard that referred too as a hated wood! I've put tonnes through the woodchip over the years, but couldn't say whether it dulled the blades particularly, but have never sawmillled any.

Cheers Doug!
I just didn't see in the description or said this was a how-to video
Haha exactly my thoughts too Jason!
I bet it smells so good
Tác phẩm rất đẹp. ❤❤Like
Is this wood from the Leyland Cyprus tree, commonly used as a landscaping and windbreak tree?
Indeed it is! Very common in the UK for putting along the edge of your property etc.
@@IanMacWoodturning Very common in eastern US, also. I have planted 30 or 40 of these on my couple acres and have grown several from cuttings. I think easy cloning is one of the reasons these are so common.
What brand of wood lathe do you use?
Hey mate, I use a Laguna
I thought you were talking about Russian Olive. I have a brand new Fiskars hatchet that just bounces off 5 year old pieces of Russian Olive. Hard, tough wood.
Не треснет ли край при высыхании ? Надо было бы обруч из медного кольца сделать
Этот материал сухой, мой друг, его влажность составляла 8%, поэтому он не должен слишком сильно деформироваться или трескаться, если вообще должен.

Well no one asked any of you for your opinions, so stfu until someone does ! Damn karens
Which branding iron do you use for your logo?
Hey mate, I got it from a place called stampsdirect.co.uk if I'm remembering correctly
Beautiful
Looks great!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day.
buen trabajo
Very nice.
Thanks Michael!
Fantastic
Nice piece
What kind of wood that is. It looks like cedar
It's Leylandii :)
Beautiful 😍
Nice work brother
Thanks Grizz!

It’s Leylandii which is a cross between 2 types of cypress plants, it’s very common in the UK and not particularly liked.
Gosto muito do seu trabalho, porém o trabalho com serra me deixa apreensiva 😮
What kind of wood is it?
Leylandii :)
I never tried it, but Michigan Jackpine has to be one of the worst.
i love video
Thank you!
Cottonwood?
It's Leylandii, It's a type of Cypress
I think it's spruce, can you verify what kind of wood it was. I thought cedar at first but I think it's spruce.
It’s actually a variety of cypress.
Correct ^ Leylandii is a cross between 2 types of cypress plants.
If you are going to say the most hated wood, then you at least need to say what it is, and an explanation of why you feel that way.
@@IanMacWoodturningindeed it is. Cupressus macrocarpa ( monterey cypress, a fabulous timber) and callitropsis nootkatensis, (nootka cypress).
Those thumb nails could be used as a bowl gouge
😂
Looks like Japanese honeysuckle.
Spitoon ??
Yes, why!?
But why is it the most hated kind of wood?
In the UK this stuff is everywhere and it's not used for very much, people say that they bushes are eyesores and it's generally not very well liked. There are lots of articles where people explain in more depth
So why didn't you say what this wood is?
Says in the description & the comments bud. It's Leylandii
The most hated wood......??.......I'm disappointed, I expected something really horrible ☹️☹️☹️😏
The adverts you are showing will come back to bite you.
not sure what you mean Rich
So why is it the most hated wood in the world ???? Maybe it's upset because you made a Spittoon out of it, LOL
Ok...
Yeah you’re right I hate it
Way to thick.......
Don't be so hard on yourself..
Please,come on!!!!! How many more videos are we going to see people on a lathe with long baggy sleeves etc? If you are going to put videos up for viewing, wear the proper attire. This is teaching the new comers to wood turning the totally wrong thing!!😤
It says in the description that this isn’t to be used for educational purposes & my practices may not be the safest.
to ian mac good luck with this piece of wood 🪵 hope this turns out very nice from paul chapman at London uk also what is it
Thanks Paul!
What species of wood is it?
Leylandii
