Woodturning - Big Birch Burl

  • Опубликовано: 24 фев 2021
  • In this video I take a Birch Burl and cast my largest hybrid to date, you can maybe tell from the video that I started to turn a large hybrid sphere but I decided I would lose too much character, so opted for a lamp base instead ..
    I used a slow set epoxy and teal coloured mica powder, I finished the piece using an abrasive paste a finishing wax and buffed the resin with menzerna buffing compounds.

    I always try to envision what you are creating and what it will look like as I'm watching your videos, but I have never even come close. You always take some chunk of wood that most normal people would have used to burn in a fireplace and end up creating a masterpiece that belongs in an art museum. GREAT JOB as always. Thanks for sharing.

    Oh my, the grain in that burl is stunning and I love the teal you chose. The whole piece is gorgeous (as ever) and the process is utterly mesmerising. It’s a good day that starts with a video from Mr Phillip!

    I love how the frame rate matched up perfectly in the time lapse so it made it look like it was turning way slower. Super fascinating.

      There are channels where the video sampling rate syncs up the the whirling of helicopter blades. You can hear the usual sound of the helicopter, but it seems to be ascending with its blades still.

    The river running down the face is gorgeous! I love the metallic teal resin too. It really works with the intricate grain in the burl. Beautiful work.

    To have a lump of wood, see the shape of something hiding in it, and bring it out.
    That level of artistic craftmanship amazes me.

    I appreciate how you follow the wood to keep it's character, I like that you film parts of you looking it over and deciding as well. Thanks!

    Beautiful production.

    @thomasarth2458 3 года назад +1

    I'm glad you found the wood back. So often when people do these hybrid projects the wood disappears and almost all you see is resin. I prefer this, where the resin just fills the voids but the wood is the star.

      @MoesTavern4658 3 года назад +2

      Yep. I'll read the title and watch it take shape and it's nice seeing it become the thing. This one I was watching the oil go on thinking, "very pretty. What is it"? Then he stuck the lampshade on and it all made sense.

    YES! I love it when the frame rate and RPM of the lathe match up. Looks like it's not rotating, but you see the wood chips flying, and the shape changing.

  • @humancattoy7767
    @humancattoy7767 3 года назад +6

    Birch is a pretty wood. It takes serious skill to really bring out it's character. You definitely have the skill. This one, though. It is full of character. I think you chose the best way to display it's beauty.

    Only found your channel a month ago via random YT suggestions, and have commented before, but have to say:
    As someone that would like to be a 'maker' but doesn't have the tools or space, the most impressive thing I've noticed from binging your videos is how efficient you've gotten with your resin castings. Always cool to watch someone grow in a skill. EDIT: also, the lack of annoying voiceover or horrible music makes you VERY good. Just a dude and his craft =

      Sledgehammers and reciprocating saws are almost as efficient when you take organizing the mess that taking the shed down with a tractor would make into account. Just saying that there's always a ready made reason not to do something. Just get out there and do it.

    I just wanted to say that you helped inspire me to try woodturning. Nothing I have is fancy, but I got a used lathe and some inexpensive tools, I have a bunch of wood in my yard, and I’ve started practicing. Thank you for the unintentional push to try something I probably wouldn’t have otherwise.

    I never realized how on point Andy's edits are till I watched some other wood work videos after Andy's.
    His clips are short and interesting. The sound is never too sharp (like your listening to dental work), and his movements and methods always feel zen like.
    You can definitely watch other wood working videos, but with Andy's its less watching and more of just letting the entrancement overtake you.
