Woodturning - Oil Transforms the Look of this Crotch!

  • This week’s project is a large platter turned from a Chinese Tallow crotch. I got this wood from a neighbor when they had it cut down from their backyard. Chinese Tallow is considered a nuisance tree in my area so people are often trying to get rid of them.
    It’s amazing what beauty wood can hide inside. The wood really pops once I apply some oil to the crotch!

    Excellent piece. I picked up some Hickory and rough turned it into a cylinder to see it it was worthwhile to turn. I had my doubts since it had many gray tones and not what was typical of Hickory. Seeing the rejuvenation of the wood with the oil makes me want to complete the turning to see the possibilities. Thanks for the inspiration Robert.

    Very nice, Robert! I love turning Chinese Tallow! It spalts very quickly and finishes beautifully. It is also unbelievably light and like you said, quite soft. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my hands on anything that large... yet.

      If your crotch needs help in the looks department you can try Mahoney's Walnut Oil.....or Tequila.

    I have a neighbor that just gave me a huge Chinese Tallow if I will cut it for him. Probably 24-30” at butt of log, still considering it.

    • @HodgePodgeWoodWorks
      @HodgePodgeWoodWorks  2 года назад +1

      That sounds about the same size as the tree my neighbor had. The logs I got then just stayed outside on cement for about 3 months and developed this interesting spalting.

    You do beautiful work. But way too many crouch references. My step kids are interested in wood working but there's no way we can watch your video together.
