Woodturning Cross Country Tour

- I promised on my channel that I would offer a look into what my life is like as a professional, full-time woodturner. In this past month of June 2019, I visited woodworking schools, furniture workshops, home studios, a tradeshow, and threw in a Segway tour at the end - and I want to share this journey with you.
This journey spans from coast to coast. I started out in St. Louis to do some production turning on 175 chair legs in four days. To get there, I flew from Charleston. I drove from St. Louis to Columbus, Ohio for the Woodcraft Vendor Tradeshow where I demonstrated woodturning and met up with a few other woodworkers like Jory Brigham and John Malecki before circling back to Charleston for a couple of days. Then I was off to Seattle to teach at a couple of turning clubs and a school in the area including in Anacortes and Port Townsend. I also visited Anne of All Trades! From there, I went to the Sacramento area to make some videos that I can’t wait to show you with a couple of other woodworking professionals, Mike Mahoney and Erickson Woodworking, before heading back home to Charleston.

I used to be a turner, but as I was badly affected by the dust, gave it up, Then I saw the battery powered respirator masks, so I bought one, retooled, and started turning again. The mask enabled me to carry on turning for about 25 years after which it just fell apart, but by then I had discovered carving which I do now all the time. But when I see your work, once again I'm inspired to tool up yet again. So I will just continue to admire and delight in your RUclips pieces.
Your videos are some of my favorite. Watch all of them back to back that I could fine
I love seeing more female wood workers. My daughters are slowly getting more and more shop time with me. They routinely want to sit down and look at Instagram or RUclips for yours and Ann's work. I love finding new women to show them as it gives them a true goal to look forward to. My oldest was so excited to see you wearing glasses as well. The small things that makes her feel like she already has something in common with you lol. They all asked their mom if you can come to a cookout and show them how to make the ornaments you were holding.
You can never say "TA-DAAAA!" too often... especially when you turn such beautiful pieces. I yell "T-DAAAA!" every time I sharpen a chisel successfully.
Love your work.
Ashley Harwood you are in my bucket list to take a class with you. Your work is AMAZING. ❤️
The WoodCraft show spinning square is totally a "Hold my Beer" moment waiting to happen.
Many congratulations for your partitions in several exhibitions you are an excellent teacher. Although I only saw in video because he does not speak English, only Spanish wanted to congratulate her for her participation and her challenge of several hours of lumber
My dad was a Carpenter and your videos make me want to get into that trade.
You are one of a unique group of new young people. It is such a joy watching this transition. Anne OAT, April W, Matt C Jay B. Thank you for all of this wood working contribution. And specifically you I am partial to wood turners. Keep on keeping on.
What a fun month. And I love the Giant Spiny Sea-Urchin with ebony. What a neat idea to do.
No way to say Ta Daaaa to often! There is never enough joy in life...
Your a better person than I am Ashley. I enjoy turning pieces on commission but was ready to scream when I took on a project to turn a nice lady four matching serving bowls. Nice video thanks for sharing...
Miss Harwood i was so enthralled by you your skill grace strength passion and yes your phenomenal physical beauty that i nearly forgot to hit the like button before the end of this video hahaha i too am a woodworker although it's not currently how i earn my bread I've been working with wood since the age of 8 and has been a passion that i hope to soon make a career anyway i just wanted to take a minute to say you are someone so very special and wonderful in this world there is only one you and you shine like a French polished federal side table hahaha keep being wonderful James
What a reprieve from the nasty world of the Internet. Awesome skill and great set of people
A video like this only makes me love and appreciate the woodturning world. Beautifully produced, with lots of stars. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words!
A-
1. What an awesome video! So interesting to show the insights of your travel and the great people you meet.
2. A few seconds before the "lay in the sawdust scene," I was just thinking how itchy wood turning must get sometimes!
3. Tell Anne that's the danger of vegetables....if she was picking chocolate bars that "Big Foot" had left in the garden, things would have been safer! Hahahahah!
4. I'm thinking you must have broken off at least several thousand bowls in your career, but you continue to smile and are so kind and excited for your students during that "Ta-da" moment. Good for you.....and great for them! DD
Wow ! I know I am a little late watching this one but , wow . You have such an amazing life .
You are a breath of fresh air, your videos are a chance to escape the mundane and experience the wonder of this world of woodturning. Thank you so much!
I'm am blown away with the beautiful turning you do, especially the feneals. You have a great touch, im a little jealous. Lol. I've always wanted to learn turning. Thank you for sharing your craft.
Just. Do. It. :-) you’ve got just that one life. :-)
@@leonardo0008 your right. I'm going to start planning to buy a lathe now. Thank you.
The way you presented this video made me fall back in love with wood turning! I truly was amazed at the ebony finials that you made, so beautiful!
What an incredible lady. Sooo talented.

You're a beautiful lady and a true Master of your Profession, your video production quality is some of the Best on RUclips!

I've been following Ashley since she made her first videos on RUclips many years ago. She has made a wonderful journey from beginner to highly professional. The high quality of this video reflects her success.
Hi Ashley it's an honor and a pleasure to watch a beautiful young lady with a smile to match enjoying life to the fullest xoxo
Well deserved praise, I heard from turners across America about this video. Ashley is making a difference, a real difference.
Your videos are awesome and relaxing to watch. Thank you and keep up the amazing works.
Ashley Harwood, you are one amazing human. Thank so much for sharing your time and talent.
Great video Ashley... the combination of content, your voice and the music is wonderful and very relaxing.
Such a bright light. What an inspiration!
Had a Shopsmith many moons ago.Tried turning a table leg.
It was chattering and tearing.
A friend laughed at me and sharpened the tools for me.
The first long curl that rolled over my hand was pure joy.
Ashley, you are such an inspiration to us all. Thank you 😘
Great job Ashley, great video, really enjoyed that! Thank you!
I am mesmerised by your skills and dedication to teaching, all with a happy disposition and ready smile. Thank you for such an uplifting look into your life's passion.

SAFE TURNING, John
Thank you, Ashley! I enjoyed seeing your travels, fun, and work. Thank you for including us in your journey. Great job!
I never considered getting into wood turning, but since I found and subscribed to your channel, my mind has been changed. You are a very talented person, and your videos have changed the mind of someone that wanted to build furniture exclusively. I can see ways of incorporating turning in my furniture, and turning just to turn. Thank you Ashley.
Beautiful story Ashley.
So great to follow and see your journey. It's awesome to see the amazing path your life is on! Thanks for sharing it...
Great video, Ashley!! Thank you!
I absolutely adore your work and it is refreshing to see this approach to your journey and at the end you thanked us but we should be seriously thanking you for your insight. It’s too bad I didn’t get a chance to meet you on this trip to Seattle but you have to come back and present at our club with the South Puget Sound Woodturners. It would be an absolute treat.
Such a cool, well done video. Thanks!
You can never say "Tah dah" too often!! Keep up the great work!
Uniquely designed and edited new approach to a turning video. I loved it!
What a wonderful video. The scenes of you teaching were terrific, and the photography was beautiful.

The tiny finial was amazing!
Wonderful video! Perfection all around.
Another exceptional video. It really is a great variety of getting to see your turnings, and all the beautiful places you visit. I am still amazed at how steady you are when turning those finials. Thanks for sharing these wonderful places and people. Keep smiling.

Yet another great video. Props to the camera person. Can't wait for more.👍😁👍
I really like what you do and how you do it. especially when I see a woman make such handicrafts. I support you in your work and thank you for discovering that beauty of the tree of what God is creating.
Another really great video. Which this needs to be said, whomever does your camera work and video editing, does a masterful job. That person needs some praise as well.
A beautiful and very talented lady, great video.
You know of any clubs in Los Angeles. I did wood turning in high school in the 70’s and now that I am retiring I would like to take it up again. You do wonderful work.
That's what makes a good woodworker into a great woodworker.
Love your work ..... and your channel.
Thank you for the support!
excellent to work greetings from Oakland California
Ms. Harwood, It is so refreshing to watch such quality production quality. You, and your videos are so different from a lot of the foul mouthed, arrogant, jerks, who may have talent, but are obnoxious. Your smooth soothing voice, calm demeanor and class shine. Please don’t change (as I’m sure you won’t). You are the only one on u Tube that I have thought, “ I would like to know them”
Thanks for your all you do.
I'm now compelled to make a bowl !!
