[@jenniferharton6383]

If you are going to forget the pine there is always Leylandii❤ thank you for your videos Ian. I look forward to them.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Haha I might get some Leylandii out soon Jen! Hope you're doing well :)

That's not only unique in its style; it's beautifully executed, as well. And, that grain in the pine is fantastic.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thanks! I really appreciate your comment :)

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

What a great shape! With that bold grain the pine seems to do well made into a larger piece. Really shows off the colors too. Thank you for a great video!

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thanks for your support Gwynn! Hope you are doing well :)

[@IanMacWoodturning]

[@bryanmccabe3632]

I have some pine log , but just by picking it up I know it is not going on my tools but maybe in the wood stove , LOL BM

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Probably not a bad choice to make haha

[@RenaLarson61]

Such a unique look, it's beautiful

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thanks!

From one Wood Turner to another nice work on the pine. I have only turned 3 pieces of some mysterious evergreen I think Juniper in the Townships recycling dump for yard waste. I find it pretty relaxing. Because of the smell of the wood is just like Red Cedar, and it doesn't grow here in central Pa. Happy turning my friend ☺️

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thank you very much my friend, hope you continue to turn and continue to find free wood haha

[@Umberto.Goglia]

Another master lesson of turning! Thanks for sharing Ian!

[@janethowe8812]

This is just beautiful. Amazing to see you take a less-than-beautiful piece of pine and turn it into a work of art.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

I'm a new subscriber and have tried turning pine with minor success. What finish are you putting on your pine pieces.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Hi mate, I don't turn too much of the lighter pine trees but this red pine seems to come out alright, I generally use sanding sealer and then may apply some bees wax and buff that up but I have a variety of different polishes and varnishes that I'll use on different pieces.

[@TaneKarnes]

I paused mid way, the shape you have going looks like a possible double bowl. Which, I think, would be unique piece. But if you continue on and make a vase, I love the shape. The ring going around the neck. 😃

[@TaneKarnes]

Ok, I finished video. Such a pretty piece. Was curious, on pine, there isn't any problems with sap? Some carvers tend to steer clear of pine for that reason.

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Haha I saved the other piece for another day! Yeah that's definitely an issue with the Pine, my bandsaw blade is covered in resin!

[@Pe.Pe.]

Super Super Super

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thank you!

[@jimbrock8928]

Good job what kind of pine is it

[@IanMacWoodturning]

Thanks Jim! I'd be lying if I knew exactly the type, it's definitely a red pine of some sort.

[@Chessplayer_1]

When was the last time you sharpened your drill bits?

[@garyhead577]

Not rotten at all...a bit of bug stain is all.
