The Evil Twin - Woodturning the Yew Crotch's Other Half

In this video, I take on the challenge of woodturning the "The Evil Twin" of a yew crotch piece. This half of the yew crotch presents more imperfections, including splits, shakes, and other natural flaws, making it a tougher project. Join me as I navigate these obstacles to transform this challenging piece into a beautiful, finished bowl. Watch the entire process as I share tips and techniques for dealing with problematic wood, maintaining safety, and achieving a stunning final product. This video is perfect for both seasoned woodturners and those looking to learn how to tackle more difficult woodturning projects.
