Phil- It’s all turning but every piece is different. Seems like you always discover what the piece ought to become - and with discipline and attention to detail, you make it the best it could be. It’s always a joy to watch. Praying for peace and healing.
An almost regular bowl...that's different! You STILL put your own little spin on it. The grain is awesome in sassafras. When you wet the bark, I instantly had a craving for bacon! When I was a kid, mom & dad would take me out in the woods looking for sassafras saplings. They're not hard to find in Central Indiana. We would dig up a pound or two of roots and mom would boil them up in a huge cast iron kettle. Oh, the aroma! We'd have tea, homemade sassafras ice cream and hard candy. It was a dream for a kid...ahhh, those were the days! Thanks Phil!
Oh I love the ban box you showed us. It's very unique. Now you've shown me a square round bowl!!! You're teaching this old woman a lot about wood and how you create these beautiful works of art. It's nice to realize I'm not too old to learn about our amazing mother nature.😊
Hi Phil Beautiful as always! I had to write you, I'm sitting here catching up with your posts recovering from rotator cuff surgery not able to do my favorite things, kayak fishing and wood turning:( My 14 yr old son walked in and asked watcha doin Dad? I'm watching my favorite wood turner , he watched a bit and remarked that you had a pleasant voice and manner. He said you are the Bob Ross of wood turning. How right he is. Thank you so much for your inspiration over the years.
Not sure where Sassafras grows but it sure is pretty. The grain is very special and with this it seems better bit to get a perfectly flat sanding job just to be able to feel it. Great finish as well and I like the ring. I just finished a big bowl and put a ring on it. Something I usually do not do. The bowl is not square and sure is not round either. You will have to wait a week to see it as I decide to use Danish oil and it is not drying as fast as would like. A bit cold around here I am thinking. I bet your bowl would be great for ice cream because you might have something that taste like a root beer float LOL. Great job buddy, Gary
Hey, Gary, we have sassafras growing here in Ohio. I have some in my woods. It's an interesting tree because it has three different leaves growing at once. Bill
I'm never all that confident that I'm going to like it once you announce that it's going to be a winged bowl. So far, you've always proven me wrong. You made me chuckle when you said, "I'm right again." re: the Zinzer sanding seal making the bark sparkle. That grain was so cool.
WOW WOW WOW. Band Saw box is beautiful. Have never heard of one. ( no reason I should have😲). Recipients of the 2 you gave away are blessed. Thanks for sharing on this video. Great work on the bowl. I enjoy your creations and that you do not have an assembly line of items that all look alike. Each piece is unique in it's own right, square, round, tall, short, etc. And you were able to enjoy the words aroma. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Phil, Normal services have been resumed in my household, Friday morning, Cup of Tea and a Phil Video to watch. Bliss!!! I love the raised rim around the bowl, it looks fantastic. As others have said, as well as you, the grain in this piece is wonderful. Great work my firend. Take care. Cheers, Huw
Sending you good wood turning vibes my friend. Until you get to where you need to be. I'll be waiting here for some more lessons. This hobby has actually saved me❤️
Just a short message to see how your getting on, haven't seen any updates, hopefully your on the mend, hope this gets through to you and finds you getting fit n healthy enough for some more turning, those vids of yours are certainly missed. All the best Gary Lincolnshire uk
As a child/teen I lived in the forest and there was quite a bit of sassafras mixed in. (Michigan) I used to break off the new branches, peel the green bark off, and chew the pulp. It was sort of a strong mint/root beer flavor to it. I’ve never seen a large piece of sassafras as the trees were less than 8” in diameter. That’s all gone now because mostly Chicago people had their vacation homes built in that area and cleared a lot of the forest around my childhood home. Kinda cool to see that sassafras can be turned.
Thank you for another great video. You make turning look so easy. I’m sorry you’re not feeling well. I hope you are able to get back to woodworking again even if you can’t do videos. Take care of yourself. You are in my prayers.
In the sassafras bowl I saw a bunny’s head , looking in the direction of the rot spot. Otis in the grain of the wood. Sure hope you can see it too. A beautiful bowl as always.
'Holly Sassafras' it turned out beautifully Phil. I do remember the problems with turning the other Sassafras bowl& how well it turned out in the end thanks to your skill, turning ability & the 'never say never' attitude that you posses 'in spades'. So well is this bowl turned that we can 'virtually' feel that texture & see it. Love your repair work on the bark, you would never know as you said. Love the finish too, it compliments the bowl perfectly. I know it can't always be but you make it all sound & look so easy. The sign of a master craftsman. Well, that's the Phil 'fix' for this week, so, for now, keep out of Covid trouble mate. Cheers, Don from South Aust.
Your are an inspiration to so many of us. Your craftsmanship, creativity and you teaching abilities are outstanding. I love how there is no piece of wood that you cannot create something with. You are fantastic Phil Anderson!
A Master of wood turning, with amazing skills who I really don't think you know how good you are, well we love watching you here in Britain another fantastic piece.
Back when I was a kid we lived in Georgia. We would make sassafras tea quite often. Very nice job on the bowl! The saw marks could kinda be a natural edge look. Great job!
The way you handled the bark was really cool. The broken bits didn't hold you back, and the gentle sanding strikes a great balance between smooth and rough. You are definitely inspiring imitation!
Band saw box with bark.....what a surprise! Oh, nice bowl Phil.
😊

I love this sassy square bowl, beautiful beautiful grain design. ♥️

Thank you very much, Robert! Tell your son I appreciate his comment, too! 😊
A Candy dish for root beer barrels!! Another beauty! Thanks for showing us.
😊
That bowl is more beautiful than the last sassafras bowl. A square bowl was an excellent choice.
😊
This sassy safrass is lovely. The soft shin of the grain is so nice? The texture, the bead, the shape! So very beautiful!
Thank you so much, Linda! 😊
I do enjoy you. Thanks Phil
🙃💜 Maine
😊
Thanks for the band saw box intro. And yes, it’s about time for sassafras roots in the iron pot on the wood stove in the shop! Memories! Thanks Phil.
😊
Wow ! I almost forgot . HAPPY BIRTHDAY Phil !!
😊
Love both your Bandsaw box and your Square bowl. Both are Beautiful.
😊
Ingenious! The master at work! Absolutely love it!👏👏👏💕🇬🇧
Thank you, Maud! Pretty grain in this one. 😊
My grandmother always had a big bag of Sassafras shavings for tea. I loved it. Can’t find it anymore. You’re right, it smells(& tastes!) amazing.
Thanks for sharing, Chrissy! 😊
Hope your recovery is swift Phil.. take care.. nice bowl too 😊
😊
PHIL, ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL PEACE, GREAT VIDEO, GREAT JOB, SEE YOU NEXT WEEK, TELL EVERYBODY HELLO...

LOL! Root beer float! Leave it to you, my friend! 😊
I'm never all that confident that I'm going to like it once you announce that it's going to be a winged bowl. So far, you've always proven me wrong.
You made me chuckle when you said, "I'm right again." re: the Zinzer sanding seal making the bark sparkle.
That grain was so cool.
Haha, I'm glad I could give you a chuckle, Kathleen! 😃
Very informative about sassafras, and of course another beautiful bowl, Uncle Phil ❣️👍✌️
😊
Reminds me of the ash trees we have in our area. Beautiful piece of wood with excellent turning and finishing. Luv it. ❤ 👍👍👍
The grain definitely looks like Ash, Steve, but it's much softer. Glad you like it, thank you! 😊
I love this bandsaw box!! So cool! And the sassafras bowl is beautiful, too! The grain is amazing.
Thanks so much, Susannah! 😊
This bowl is very beautiful and I imagine the smell of rootbeer you talked about!
Greetings from Sweden!
🤩❤❤❤👍
😊
I love the deep, chunky bark. Just beautiful.
😊
Nice job Phil & good looking bandsaw box too!

Fun and easy to make, too, Mark! Thank you! 😊
Another thoughtful work of art instead of just a round bowl. Love natural edged pieces. Great job.
😊
Used to love when my grandma gave me sassafras root to chew a loose tooth out. What a beautiful square bowl.
😊
Beautiful, light colored wood. You designed an intriguing bowl that shows off the grain perfectly
😊
I love that box. Wow 🙃💜

That bandsaw box is beautiful! Really like the bead around the rim of the bowl.
Thanks so much! 😂
One of my best sellers. Bandsaw boxes. ❤
😊
Irridescence and great grain, with the contrasting bark. A Lovely piece, Phil.
Agreed, a great piece of wood, Richard! 😊
There is a rabbit in the bowl! Head and ears. Nice bowl. It was so interesting to watch you form it.
Thanks for watching, Elisa, I'm glad you could see the rabbit! 😊
Beautiful, as always. You say you’re not a teacher or an artist but you are both and I enjoy your videos tremendously.
