You have been Mr Furini, conspicuous by your absence, but is jolly nice to see you back. You are in Hampshire in 3 weeks time and I am very much looking forward to it. Take care Steve
Video ended, headed out to the shop to warm up both the shop and the dyes. Darn, shop torn apart, under construction. Ahhh, will go to friend’s shop midweek and play there. We stocked up on leather dyes and now I can make all the peacock blends that my little eyes desire! LOL! Thanks for keeping us tubers in the loop of your busy schedule. When does your freedom happen?
Freedom comes in 9 weeks - 8 weeks of working left, one week of a half-term break...ticking down....have fun with the leather dyes and peacock colouring!!
Quite nice! The colors really worked out well. And, good to see you again. BTW, the echo effect on the audio seemed appropriate as you went over the colors again and again. I say leave it.
A lovely piece, thank you for sharing your talents. A question from a novice so might be a silly question! Is there a food safe way to finish coloured work? Thanks
Thanks, Mike. I don't have much info on this as I don't ever intend the things I make to be used for food use. However, it's what you put over the colour that needs to be a food safe finish that forms a protective film. I believe some lacquers are toy safe and I think Rustins make a plastic coating that is food safe. Cheers!
Stewart, I enjoyed this video because you did a small bowl, instead of your typical larger pieces. Question 1: at the 12:28 mark in the video the painted surface changed to a white coating and by 12:31 the coating was gone. What happened here? What was the white coating? Was it something you did to protect the paint? Question 2: I liked how you painted the bowl rim while flat on the table top instead of your typical paint-on-the-lathe technique. The amount of "run" you got from the paint (towards the center) was due to the viscosity of the paint and the amount of "slope" you cut into the rim of the bowl. If the top was virtually flat, there would not have been any "run" at all. Was the slope eyeballed or was there a plan there? Chuck
Hi Chuck - sorry you've had to wait a while for a reply! Been away in Portugal for 10 days. The white coating was just dust from sanding out the bowl and it was vacuumed off off camera... The slope was eyeballed... I like to have some slope on the rim to lead the eye into the bowl. Cheers!
Beautiful, are you a painter as well ? Is your ability with paint and color natural to you? I'm inspired by your work, but so far unable to come close to it. I don't give up easy , I'll keep watching and working, thanks for your work....
Thanks, Robert - I'm glad you're enjoying my videos. I'm not a painter, other than the walls of my house and my woodturnings...not nearly good enough with a paintbrush to do anything really artistic, unless I get into abstract art maybe! I think the colour choices are pretty natural to me, but maybe they are unconsciously shaped by things I've seen in nature or other forms of creative work. A colour wheel can be useful to get started on working with colour choices if it doesn't come naturally. Let me know how you get on with your turning and colouring. Cheers!
Hi Stewart, I really wasn't sure about the colours until you turned the middle out and then it came alive. Was that white spirit stain you put on first. Great to see you back. Take care Stewart. Cheers, Huw PS I bought one of those chucks as well and I really like it.
Back in the saddle again. By the famous singing cowboy Gene Autry. Glad your back!
Cheers, Tony - might have to get my old geetar out....

Very good mate,I love how you achieve the affects on wood
Glad you like it, Barry! Thank you!
Excellent thanks for sharing
Loving the colors
Cheers, Jude! I've just put an epoxy resin over them...looks awesome!
Quite nice! The colors really worked out well. And, good to see you again.
BTW, the echo effect on the audio seemed appropriate as you went over the colors again and again. I say leave it.
Cheers, Bill - it was fun to get back to doing a video .... and I spent ages dropping the colours....edited out a lot!
A lovely piece, thank you for sharing your talents.

Beautiful. Really came out with an interesting texture to the colors. I do have one question, what is the white that you applied?
Thanks, Doug! Glad you enjoyed it - it was a water based stain - this one was the white in Hampshire Sheen's Intrinsic Colours/Colors...

@@stewartfurini , thank you ......
lovely piece, good to see you back in the shed! is that a new gouge?
Cheers, Robert - I've had it a while but don't often use it...this little bowl seemed a good time!

Great to see you back.
Take care Stewart.

PS I bought one of those chucks as well and I really like it.
Cheers, Huw...wait till yousee it with the epoxy resin I finally tried out today....4 1/2 years after buying it...
