Woodturning videos are not usually my favorite videos put out by woodworkers but you sir are a completely different animal! Your woodturning videos are riviting. I love the combination of problem solving, CNC, wood harvesting story and narration. It's always a pleasure to see a new Howarth video pop up in my feed!
Frank, I think that the workings of your mind is not of this Earth. That you are an artist of very high degree is a given. Your excellent technical skills are perfectly melded to the alien and artistic parts of your being.This is why I love all aspects of your work, most especially your documentation, which allows me to see the progression of your various projects. :-) Thank you for sharing.
With all the design skills, woodworking prowess and video wizardry aside, you're plain and simple one of the best story tellers out there. A true inspiration to anyone who went into the shop and set out to create something. The only thing I'm missing is the sound of that cello. I hope it features again in one of your videos soon.
Usually I don't like videos longer than 10 minutes, but with your editing skills, your relaxing narration, and the incredibile objects that you make...25 minutes are really enjoyable!
I don't know what magic it is you have but I always find myself mesmerised by your videos. Your editing, woodworking and storyboarding skills as well as your calm, funny, amiable vocal delivery are all just perfect. Thank you for making the world a happier, sawdusty-smelling, place :)
You can teach anyone to turn a bowl or make a RUclips video, but you cant teach Taste, Your projects are Tasteful in a way that is very special. Always great production, and you make something that I personally have no love for(ie bowls) very entertaining .
Oh man! What a wonderful job, aged three years, is like the movies that take so long to be available. Wonderful love for wood you show in every detail. I loved. Thanks for sharing
Your tracking / mocha skills and selective desaturation are magnificent. You provide a good example of the adage, "problems are opportunities" and as always your solution and the final bowl are wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
Your Woodworking skills are top notch, but you always amaze me with your video skills. I have to say the whole black and white/with just one object painted in rich colors is blowing my mind. 🤯
The only problem I ever have with your videos is that your voice is so relaxing and I keep falling asleep 😂 I've watched each of them several times just to see all of it.
1. I am so glad I found this channel. Amazing and focused work~ 2. What a treasure trove of tools! 3. Have you ever pulled an overnighter? 4. Who does the laundry and how many washing machines and dryers have you gone through? Thanks for the voice over sound bites, it makes the video so much more interesting. And yes, my mind screamed when the branch was destroyed and in all honesty, I love the cracks and what we see as imperfections but Mother Nature knows best...most of the time.
I like the experiment with colour + black and white surroundings, it really guides the eye. Your videos are always fantastic and so is this, I just love seeing your work on progress
While I don't turn myself, I thoroughly enjoy watching the videos of those that do. I am amazed by the skill and artistry that they demonstrate. This particular video is one of the best (if not the best) of the many on the internet. Well done Sir!!!! Your attention to detail is admirable.
Sir, this clip is outstanding from multiple aspects: your craftsmanship, your video skills, your perfectly equipped workshop and - what impressed me most - your superior constructional and conceptual competence that can be seen in those tricky "little" details of your work and your equipment. Chapeau!
Very good woodwork, turning. Also very good video editing skills. The bowl is a very nice piece of decorative art, the video is just another type of art. Narrating with a nice, calm voice, no hype, no drama. I am really amazed. Everything about this video is pleasant.
Man that’s epic! You should defo make more like that. I feel like the style is unique enough it could definitely be attributed to you, but it’s not so crazy out there that people wouldn’t want it. Imagine years from now, collectors could be like ‘yeah that’s a genuine Frank Howarth’
Frank- One of my favorite things about woodworking is reusing pieces and recalling the memories from previous projects and harvesting the wood. Thanks for including this and your family in your videos!
Getting old when new videos you watch feature wood from videos three years ago you watched and said to yourself "Man it'll be forever until I see Frank make something from that"!!
TOPO42 I know, right? Time is passing so much more rapidly these days. I was shopping for cars, recently, and kept thinking that vehicles from 2000 were fairly new, Lol!
I have never turned wood, and maybe I never will, but your videos are always so fascinating and I always finish the experience with some new knowledge on the matter of wood turning. Thank you for another enlightening video frank, keep them coming!
Nice bowl Frank. Sometimes mistakes become the best part of a project. Other times when things go as planned there are unexpected bonuses. Gotta love it.
I just want to say Thank you for everything you have thought me. I greatly appreciate all of the work you do. I am a machinist by trade, and it is wonderful watching you do your lathe work. Thank you again.
such a cool selective color trick, you should make a video about the method you used to achieve this. Your videos are very calm and peaceful, and I enjoy falling asleep to them because of your unique smooth voice. (no homo)
Dude, watching your channel almost feels like I am in a time warp. I’ve been watching since 2014 and it always amazes me when you bring up old projects how long ago they actually were because it feels like it was just yesterday or last month
You're probably one of the first wood workers I started following on YT, and I can't believe how long I've been watching your videos for (I remember the tree video). Such a great video, use of new and old machines and the descriptions of what you like as a summary...
I like the addition of you talking directly to the camera like at 6:55. I have to admit I think it's such a shame the natural branch in the knot wasn't discovered in time to be cast in resin! That could have looked so amazing and been such an unbelievable stroke of luck. No use crying over spilt milk though, the end result is still gorgeous. It was clever of you to first CNC the hole to one of the smaller blanks so you had some protection. That's something I would never have thought of myself but seems so obvious once you know it.
This guy’s shop! 😮 Wow! And this is a very well done video. He’s very good at explaining all the little details of what he’s working with and why he makes the decisions he makes, and the editing is excellent. He clearly knows his stuff, and it all makes for an enjoyable 24 minutes and a beautiful piece.
Wow. I'm always impressed with the art you put into everything: -The wood concept -The editing -The filming You are truly a magician in the shop and film studio. That bowl is worth a million bucks!
It's funny how they take on a life of their own. You plan it one way and sometimes end up somewhat they way you wanted it and it looks amazing and probably better than original plan. Nice job Frank
You are very good Frank. I don't own a lathe but I love watching your videos. I do plan on getting one just not anytime soon, and the first project I wanna make is a wooden bowl for my cereal. =)
As a Fine Artist, I always revel in seeing great craftsmen at work. To me, a good craftsman is just an Artist with more clients and a better schedule. Your work is awesome. Peace out.
The old branch wound would have looked phenomenal cast in resin- maybe next time? I'm always picking up scraps from work with little inclusions like that or spots where I know a void will be. My favorites are where branches were rubbing and creating this finish smooth pocket or edge along the branch.....one day I'll do something with the box under my kitchen table!

I have never seen any bowl as beautiful as this bowl.
Wow, the play between the natural patterns and the inserts is surreal!

Pure engineering genius, woodworkers always amaze me
This is the first bowl that has really struck me. Very beautiful. Make more knotty bowls with plugs!
I am really amazed. I have no suitable word to appreciate your creativity.
Tried to watch video at almost midnight... fall asleep several times. Decided to watch it next day. You're an amazing narrator :)

Completely agree. Love it!
Unfortunately, it sort of reminds me of Schindler’s List...
Richard Machin I’ve never seen it. I figured it would be too depressing.
@@ManCrafting Depressing and ultimately uplifting in the end.
One of those films that’s hard to watch, but should be seen, IMHO. Anyway, the woodworking is exceptional!

1. I am so glad I found this channel. Amazing and focused work~

3. Have you ever pulled an overnighter?
4. Who does the laundry and how many washing machines and dryers have you gone through?
Thanks for the voice over sound bites, it makes the video so much more interesting. And yes, my mind screamed when the branch was destroyed and in all honesty, I love the cracks and what we see as imperfections but Mother Nature knows best...most of the time.
The geometry of the inserts with the organic flow of the grain kinda looks like suns in clouds to me, it's really nice to look at
These videos are so therapeutic
Awesome talent, large workshop, CNC, calm pleasant voice. I love your workshop.
Some of your best shots ever in this one!!
I absolutely love watching you work. Nobody is better
Now THAT'S a dream workshop!
I like the experiment with colour + black and white surroundings, it really guides the eye. Your videos are always fantastic and so is this, I just love seeing your work on progress

Great design. The way the contrasting patterns interact make the piece indeed very balanced.
I didn't think you could outdo yourself but you outdid yourself. Absolutely genius.
Sir, this clip is outstanding from multiple aspects: your craftsmanship, your video skills, your perfectly equipped workshop and - what impressed me most - your superior constructional and conceptual competence that can be seen in those tricky "little" details of your work and your equipment. Chapeau!
Everybody is using Resin now, keep doing what you're doing.
I love your narrative style. I pay attention to voices, and you're a natural. You exude competence.
Wow. This one took me by surprise by how much you grab my attention, that 30 minutes flys by!
Nicely done Frank. As a retired CNC programmer and journeyman machinist I appreciate all your efforts and talents.
Very good woodwork, turning. Also very good video editing skills. The bowl is a very nice piece of decorative art, the video is just another type of art. Narrating with a nice, calm voice, no hype, no drama. I am really amazed. Everything about this video is pleasant.
He makes it look so effortless.
It is always a good day the Frank uploads another project video! Thanks for the inspiration and it is beautiful!
The production of these videos just get better and better
Mr2at and his speaking just get slower and slower 😂
An exquisite piece Frank. It looks continental to me, like it's part of a globe..
Man that’s epic! You should defo make more like that. I feel like the style is unique enough it could definitely be attributed to you, but it’s not so crazy out there that people wouldn’t want it.
Imagine years from now, collectors could be like ‘yeah that’s a genuine Frank Howarth’
Man those tight fits really make it. So cool!
Frank- One of my favorite things about woodworking is reusing pieces and recalling the memories from previous projects and harvesting the wood. Thanks for including this and your family in your videos!
Getting old when new videos you watch feature wood from videos three years ago you watched and said to yourself "Man it'll be forever until I see Frank make something from that"!!
Haha, we're not just seeing his kids grow up, we're seeing his bowl blanks grow up too!
Ha Ha we are all getting old watching wood dry.
TOPO42 I know, right? Time is passing so much more rapidly these days. I was shopping for cars, recently, and kept thinking that vehicles from 2000 were fairly new, Lol!
Franks timber pile needs its own socials.
This is better than anything on DIY. You should be selling your shows to them. Millions could be enjoying your art.
No other channel that I follow do I look forward to as much as your videos, Frank. This might be my favorite one of your bowls yet.
I feel calm and satisfied having watched this. This channel is the perfect modern life de-stress.
Keep up the GREAT WORK!!
You made my day Mr. Frank. You are a legend.
I have never turned wood, and maybe I never will, but your videos are always so fascinating and I always finish the experience with some new knowledge on the matter of wood turning. Thank you for another enlightening video frank, keep them coming!
Nice bowl Frank. Sometimes mistakes become the best part of a project. Other times when things go as planned there are unexpected bonuses. Gotta love it.
The juxtaposition of organic and geometric shapes are very nice. Well done.
Great shop, superb tables, the right machines and the knowledge to use them. Hats off to you!
I just want to say Thank you for everything you have thought me. I greatly appreciate all of the work you do. I am a machinist by trade, and it is wonderful watching you do your lathe work. Thank you again.
I like how the woodworking adds to your visual art.
Never fails to put a smile on my face.
One word for you Frank AMAZING !!!
was never really interested in woodturning until I found your videos thanks for sharing you expertise
Really glad I found your channel. Love your shop and the work is terrific.
such a cool selective color trick, you should make a video about the method you used to achieve this. Your videos are very calm and peaceful, and I enjoy falling asleep to them because of your unique smooth voice. (no homo)
The production of your videos are unique…! Congratulations, your videos are the best I ever seen…! The animation, the dialog….well done....!
That was a really cool way to cover the three year journey from log to bowl! Cheers Frank!
Dude, watching your channel almost feels like I am in a time warp. I’ve been watching since 2014 and it always amazes me when you bring up old projects how long ago they actually were because it feels like it was just yesterday or last month

the fuzz from the down cut is so pretty! 10:07
I can't wait until Frank one day does a large Earth globe given his imaginative skills and his woodworking techniques and tools.
You’re the best Frank!
I LOVE the longer format! The more Frank the better! Oh yeah, bowl is sick. Your talent is unrivaled.
That is really beautiful, Frank.

The color effects are so cool! I Love every video you make
Frank wow it is a fantastic and stunning bowl the way you do things and telling what and why you do things is amazing. Thank you.
I didn't think I was going to be a big fan of this build, but you delighted again. Amazing build Frank!
Extraordinary woodworking skills , the best production and narration yet
Frank, ablolutely a fantastic piece of geometric work. love it and envious. As they say in Bolognese dialect COUNTACH ! a. solazzo
Incredibly satisfying, inspirational and beautiful! You help make our world a better place. Thank you Frank.
Super idea! Bravo 👍👍👍
Frank, another fantasticly beautiful piece. Once again, WOW!!!
The date on the bottom of that bowl is my birthday! I'm glad it turned out to be such an amazing piece!
Love this piece. Its shows your understanding of the turning process and creation of new design parameters and meeting those challenges. Kudos, Frank.
Wow, this bowl looks awesome. What a wonderful and beautiful piece.
This bowl is just a delight for the eye. Thanks for making it!
today I turned my first pen, was super happy with myself and then I see what Frank has made. I threw the pen away. :)
I audibly gasped when I saw your YYYY-MM-DD dating format. Now I'll admire your work even more!
Great looking design Frank.
Wow. I'm always impressed with the art you put into everything:
-The wood concept
-The editing
-The filming
You are truly a magician in the shop and film studio.
That bowl is worth a million bucks!
I for one am very happy you cut the top of the circle off. Keep up the great work.👍
What a beautiful result!
I have enjoyed all of your videos. Amazing work.
It's funny how they take on a life of their own. You plan it one way and sometimes end up somewhat they way you wanted it and it looks amazing and probably better than original plan. Nice job Frank
You are very good Frank. I don't own a lathe but I love watching your videos. I do plan on getting one just not anytime soon, and the first project I wanna make is a wooden bowl for my cereal. =)
As a Fine Artist, I always revel in seeing great craftsmen at work. To me, a good craftsman is just an Artist with more clients and a better schedule. Your work is awesome. Peace out.
Great work , I always look forward to your videos, you are a STEP ABOVE !!!!!!!
Really great video. Your woodworking is as amazing as your video skills. Your video production has inspired me to make my videos better. Thanks Frank!
These pieces are bloody awesome man--you are my hero Frank!!!
The taper really makes the insert game way more convenient! Good thinking!
The old branch wound would have looked phenomenal cast in resin- maybe next time? I'm always picking up scraps from work with little inclusions like that or spots where I know a void will be. My favorites are where branches were rubbing and creating this finish smooth pocket or edge along the branch.....one day I'll do something with the box under my kitchen table!
Once again , Blown away by your video and woodworking skills!! You are amazing.
Beautiful
Jesus, everything was so good! Production value, commentary and craftmanship!
Masterful. In my opinion one of your best works yet. Thanks so much for sharing.
Oh my gosh, drilling out the center is brilliant. Using that next time to set my depth. Beautiful as always!
