That grain is absolutely stunning Gary.
Thank you Jack. It was really exciting watching all that grain show up. And pretty intense turning much more away for fear of it being gone.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gorgeous grain as you said. I love the bowl. Well done. Glad the inclusion did not weaken the piece.
Glad you did not drill a hole in the lid.
Thank you very much. For sure the grain is very special. Once I picked the piece of the wood out I was sure i was not going to put a knob on it and after the final sanding of the lid there was no way.
Thanks for watcing,
Gary
It's wonderful how you recalled a piece to make the perfect lid
Thank you Beverly, what was wonderful was I knew where it was LOL.
That piece was left over from a segmented turning I had done. I sat it on a shelf hoping I would find a use for it and was amazed at how it matched.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
The lidded bowl is absolutely beautiful.
Thank you James, it sure is a wonderful piece. Hope to find more of it.
Take care,
Gary
Hi Gary...

Thanks so much Andy. That piece of wood is just amazing.
I am pretty happy with it and also happy you liked it.
Take care,
Gary
Can't argue with you Black Walnut is a beautiful wood, you sure dropped lucky with having such similar wood for the lid all in all a nice looking piece.
Thanks Lewis, I did have one more piece that was a trimming from this tree but it was too thin. After I found this one it really made my day.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Absolutely beautiful grain made into a beautiful bowl.

Thank you very much Dianne. Yes it some of the nicest I have seen.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Just beautiful Gary. BW is my favorite wood to turn.
Thank you very much Neebin I appreciate your comments.
Gary
I started to view this video while at Chicago Midway Airport and just finished viewing this morning in the comfort of my easy chair. That's a nice chunk of walnut and it turned out beautifully.
My cousin in Michigan has many walnut trees on her property and can only imagine what I could do with all that wonderdul wood.
Thanks for sharing, my friend!
Thank you John. Pretty cool that my video was viewed in two different states by the same person😎
I need to get a picture of the tree that this came from. A GIANT Black Walnut tree on a farm about 25 miles from me.
The people(my nephews in laws) were offered $10,000 for the tree and just laughed.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Its perfect like glass , nice work Gary👏👏👏
Thank you very much Vini. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
I have to agree with you. That wood is beautiful! The side with the bark inclusion is fantastic very gorgeous. I like the fact that you kept the shape of your bow just simple so that the wood grain would stand out.
Thank you very much Lynda! For this was all about the grain and I was afraid of turning it away.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 you are welcome. I enjoy watching your videos. I have told you that I am a newbie. And I am learning a lot of what to look for watching you & Mr. Phil Anderson.
That is beautiful. Nuff said 👍👍😉
Thank you very much Steve.
Gary
My wife and I watch every video you put out. She ignores some of the technical stuff, but once a chisel touches wood you have her complete attention. YOU are in our top 3 I will not say were but Phil is in there too and Jim from Sprague Wood Turning. Jim unfortunately has an edge being a fellow Canadian, an fellow New Brunswicker, and he is military to boot. He was actually some places I was and I may have even met him many years ago and I don't know it. But THIS bowl WOW it is 100% my wife's and my favourite of every thing we have seen you do. I had a play list set up that have all the wood workers, Carvers, and turners that we liked and I put all of their past content into that play list and when there is nothing on TV we would put that on and watch it for hours. Then the next day I'd remove everything we watched and start again that night. Beats the hell of anything on TV now a days as far as I am concerned.
Thank you very much Steven and I am happy to be on your list. I would think Phil should be #1. He is in my book.
Well Oregon is not that far south of Canada LOL. And I was in the military as well. Back in 1967 so most likely you were not where I was. I sure hope you were not.
I found that if you want to get a good nap in just turn on the TV,
Thank you for you comments I enjoyed reading them.
Gary
Richard rafan is great and I wish Stuart batty would actually turn for the art of it instead of simply just speed but he is IMMENSELY talented
I agree... it's beautiful and I'm glad, too, that you didn't add a knob!!! Thank you!!
Thank you very much. I was so close to drilling a hole early on but something kept telling me to wait.
Well once I sanded the face of the lid screamed a big load NO!
Thanks for watching,
Gary
So beautiful Gary I love finding pieces like that take care of yourself 👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much Radar. Good to see you and thanks for watching,
Gary
That's a really beautiful piece of wood. I'm not jealous... Nope... Not at all...
Well...
Maybe just a little bit... 😛
Thank you Carl. That is ok. Hard not to be LOL
A beautiful piece of walnut Gary Great work
Many thanks Dave I appreciate you watching,
Gary
WOW, that really pops! And if it looks that good on You Tube I can only image it’s true beauty
Thank you Jim. For sure I have to say it does really look nice in person. I continue to try and work with the lighting to help show all the beauty. Really hard with LED lighting but I keep trying new settings. Happy you enjoyed the video.
Take care,
Gary
Beautiful lidded box Gary! And the lid was a great addition. So glad you didn't put a brass knob on it. But a little wooden finial would have been OK. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏽
Thanks so much Greg. I am sure glad I decided to make a lid for it. I normally do not do lies. But on a small turning where it is hard to see the grain on the inside I think it was a perfect fit.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
A beautiful piece Gary the grain and colours are as stunning as your workmanship thankyou.
Thanks so much Ian. I appreciate your comments.
Take care,
Gary
Another AWESOME turn,great work friend.
Thanks Alan and thanks for watching,
Gary
stunning grain and chatoyancy, I agree be proud mate
Thank you very much John. One of my favorites for sure.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, that walnut wood sure does take on a great shine, fantastic job buddy well done
Thank Alan. For sure this piece took on a great finish.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Sometimes life gets in the way of life, it seems like. The walnut is stunning, great small work of art sir. Thanks for sharing this post with us. The piece is beautiful.🌿 🥣🥣🥣🥣🥣
Thank you very much Rob. For sure things have to be taken care of now and then but for the most part not so bad.
I did find it was time to do a little straitening up in the shop and maybe getting rid of a few things.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Good afternoon, Gary.
Hoped your busy day went as planned. Your walnut bowl is beautiful. I agree with the lid option. Especially when the wood looks perfect. I watched your video while enjoying a chocolate milkshake at our local ice cream eatery. That's what I call a win, win. 100%
Thank you very much Ray. I am sure happy I decided it needed a lid. And sure happy I did not drill for the knob I bought.
Wow chocolate milkshake and a rich looking piece if Black Walnut that looks like ice cream YUM
Dang I have not had a chocolate milkshake for years. Or any as a matter of fact. But I have had plenty of ice cream LOL.
Take care my friend,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Life is better with ice cream.
I love black walnut. We have a lot here in Alabama. Great job.
Thank you very much Stevio. I do not come across much Black Walnut but sure was happy when my nephew called me to ask if I wanted the big limb that was trimmed off a monster of a Black Walnut tree.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful work, brother! Nice and thin, and awesome natural finish!
Thank you very much. I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching.
Gary
Simply beautiful
Thank you Nigel. Happy you liked this one. Certainly a very pretty piece of wood.
Gary
Stunning piece of wood.
Thank you Karen I am happy you liked it.
Gary
The figuring on the video is fantastic, but I'm sure in person it's even better ... the inclusion reminds me of one of the chalk horse carvings in England, specifically the Uffington White Horse ... a beautiful piece yet again 👍
Thank you Barry. I looked up Uffington White Horse. Very cool !
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Luv walnut! Great job Gary! Thx and take care.
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching.
Gary
A stunning result Gary. Thankyou for sharing. Deno
Thanks so much Deno I appreciate you watching,

Another very beautiful pot Gary ! That lid really adds to it the project . And don't get me started on that gain ! How beautiful !
Thank you very much Jon. Well I got started on the grain and still talking about it LOL.
Take care,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Happy Turning .
wowers on the grain
Thank you very much Chris. A very special grain indeed. I may have to dig deep in the pile to find more like this.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Always enjoy your videos. Exceptional piece.
Thank you very much Bob. I hope some of what I have left will be like this but if not it will still be very nice wood.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very nice box. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Andrew and thanks for watching,
Gary
Very cool piece. Beautiful wood but don’t discount your skill in making the beauty shine. Congrats!!
Thank you very much Victor. I do love the finish process as well and very happy with how it turned out.
Take care,
Gary
That is one of the most beautiful pieces I’ve seen in a long time, Great job sir.😏👍🇺🇸🦅
Thank you very much Robert I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
Gary, this is just so fine!
Thank you Michael, happy you liked it.
Gary
I can't argue with you Gary, That is very beautiful indeed and the lid matches so well.
It may have been a simple turn for you but I rank it as one of my favourite pieces you have turned.
Take care my friend.
Cheers, Huw
Thank you very much Huw. It is also one of my favorites as well. Sometimes it hard to believe it is actually a piece of wood.
Take care buddy,
Gary
Beautiful grain and finish.
Thank you kindly George!
Take care,

Purdy!!
Thank you Dave...our cats told me it was purrr d as well.

Beautiful
Thank you very much Kevin I appreciate you watching,
Gary
What a beautiful piece!❤it.
Thank you very much!
Gary
Walnut is such a gorgeous wood even without that figure. With that figure it becomes something else all together. The figure on that side is just stunning and you certainly showed it to its optimum beauty, Gary. Fantastic video, my friend.
Take care,
.....Gord
Thank you Gord. What a pleasure it was to turn such a beautiful piece of wood. It was a real treat for sure and I appreciate your comment.
Hope you are doing well my friend
Take care,
Gary
They say big things come in small packages ( or something like that ) good work .👍🐝🌞
Thank you Jim. Yes I think it goes that way. Small things are hand to turn because most of the time they are easier.
But when the come with such beautiful wood that is a real bonus.
Thanks for watching,
Garh
Yep, that is a beautiful piece of black walnut. It is one of my favorite woods. You did a beautiful turning. I hope your area cools down soon. There is no hope for us. Haha. Same old July and August weather here, hot.
Thanks you Travis. Hard to beat Black Walnut.
It is a very mild 75 here at the moment. 1:36 PM so it could get warmer. But not all that bad.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Love it. Nothing else maters.
Thank very much Joe. That says it all for me.
Thanks for watching,

Take care my friend,

Thank you very much Colin I appreciate your comments.
Gary
Hello sir
I live in the south west of England and loved your video, I turned three pieces of black walnut a little while ago and like you, I fell in love with the grain and colouring and grain. I have a bowl a vase and a dish. Max Hall
Thank you Mark I appreciate you watching. Black Walnut is certain one of the nicer woods we can turn.
Sounds like you ended up with some real beauties.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very beautiful and an excellent job turning it Gary!!!
I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you very much my friend. Happy you liked it and good to see you.

That is so very sweet!!
Thank you Luie. it was the type of wood I dream of. If only it grew on trees. Wait it does LOL
Take care,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 🤣😂👍😎
Lovely that Gary, have to keep an eye out for some of that black walnut. Just starting out with turning so if I find some I’ll wait until I can treat it proper 👍
Thank you very much. You will enjoy wood turning. Can be very relaxing.
Have fun,
Gary
Well done!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful wood and bowl. The lid compliments it.
Thank you very much Khan!
Take care,
Gary
It's a keeper!
Thank you Ken. It sure was a lot of fun turning that beautiful grain.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful bowl and finish. You out did yourself on this one!
Thank you very much Harry. That would helped a whole bunch as well.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Love it. I agree the wood grain keeps me looking for my next best one yet.
Thank you Steve. Might be awhile for me to find another like this but every piece has its own beauty and we just never know. This one was showing me before it was even turned.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Wow, that did come out great. I like your shape on that one. Now you need to fill it with some candy. Now I just wish I had time to spend some time on my lathe as it looks like I will be starting a bathroom remodel.
Thank you very much Tim. Bathroom remodel...been there done that a couple times. Actually just finished refinishing a cabinet. Now that is hard say 3 times fast. Wanted it to match the new sink unit. I had built the old sink unit and wall cabinet many years ago. Could no longer find a sink to fit it.
Have fun with that remodeling job.
Gary
@ThePapa1947 Well, the bathroom is going to be a gut job, and I am going to have a contractor doing the work. I just can't do these things anymore and have plenty of work to do. Our county supervisor is going to step down at the end of her term an I am going to make a wine cup for her, AND if I can get my Xtool D1 pro to work, I'll put something on the cup for her.
Beautiful!
Thank you Bill and thanks for watching and commenting,

Very nice..great finish..
Thank you Old Charlie I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching,
Gary
Fantastic you sed, it's definitely my favourite grand finish, that lid really suits it, pleased you didn't drill hole in it All the best from Lincolnshire UK
Thank you very much Gary. i think if I had drilled a hole in it I would have kicked myself for weeks LOL.

Hi, Gary! I've been absent from all of the video channels I love, so what a great project to see for my return! Gorgeous! Thank you!

That looks amazing, it just reminds of what beautiful things Mother Nature provides.
Couldn't agree more Len! What might seem like an imperfection in a tree will most likely give us all this beauty.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Gary, I am going to keep more of an eye out for the funky stuff on the out side.
There is a really good chance it will change the grain and you may get something spectacular.
That is awesome Gary. The lid looks like it always belonged there. 🙂
Thank you very much Laura! I was sure happy I knew where that scrap was. Hard to say with all the pieces I have laying around. But it has home now and I should know where it is.
Taking a break today and trying to sort out all the scraps and find a place for them.

Thanks so much Paully. Happy you liked it and thanks for watching,
Gary
It tuned out lovely, Gary. The lid really set the piece off! Have a great weekend.
Thanks so much Jane. Funny thing I had not planned on making a lid for it. But the shape came about by not wanting to turn away that wonderful grain. It just looked like it was begging for a lid.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful bowl, Gary. 😊 and the lid matches great. Awesome Black Walnut. 😊😊
Thanks so much Rob. It was amazing how well the grain in the lid matched.
Take care,
Gary
That definitely was/is a pretty piece of wood, very nicely done!
