- A beautiful piece of spalted Weeping Birch caused me to turn a round bowl for a change! Most of my turnings are natural pieces with bark, bark inclusions, voids, etc. This piece is perfect except for some punkiness that did give me some extra work to do. Still, it polished up beautifully and it was fun to turn! More pieces of this wood to follow in the coming months.

I don't care what you turn Phil. I'm just glad you're feeling better and you're back. Thumbs up and shared!
“Round, I’m not familiar with round.” One of my favorite things you’ve ever said😂 God Bless You. I’m so glad you are feeling better.
It is March 26, 2023. I just thought it was funny that this has been out a year and this is the first time I remember seeing it. And you’re right that wood it’s gorgeous. I like the way you shaped it not just round. Such a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing it.
I saw a crows head! I watch at least one-three videos per week. I truly love you constant chatter.
Wow! Fantastic piece. It's enjoyable watching you let the wood determine the shape. I did see both the werewolf and the bird, facing different directions. Would also like to add, you sound like you're feeling much better, hopefully that is the case. Nice job as always. 🙂
Phil, you are the biggest of the big boys. Truly a work of art by the master! May you remain healthy, blessed and highly favored! 💜💜👏👏👏
There you go again. You let the piece talk to you and tell you how to (turn it) to bring out his best features. When your as talented as you can never make a mistake (its called ON THE FLY ADJUSTMENT) you just change courses while you are turning and listen to what it tells you to do.
As aregular viewer, I can truthfully say I am not disappointed. I see a Ghost in the long splating on the outside.
Beautiful grain
I see an alien world, with oceans, islands and continents. This is a lovely change on what you normally do Phil. No need to envy the 'Big Kids' as you call them, you're right up there with the best of them in my humble opinion. And i can't wait to see what you will do with the other cuts.
Белая березка,под моим окном,принакрылась снегом, точно серебром.На пушистых ветках,снежною каймой,распушились кисти,белой бахромой...С.А.Есенин(Русский поэт). Молодец Фил👍,ты не дал этому полену пропасть,а сделал красивое изделие👋
You're quite right about letting the wood speak for itself. Turning exotic shapes works well for a lot of pieces, but that mellow, spalted wood looks like an ancient map. The elegant bowl shape shows that off, while not overpowering the effect of the grain. Good one.
Welcome back, Phil. I love this piece. I realize that it is much different from your usual pieces but I think this might be one of my very favorite of your turnings. Yes, that would have a lot to do with what Mother Nature gave you to work with but your turning was absolutely masterful. Also, your decision on how to turn it was so well planned. You are the master, my friend, and it was a pleasure to watch you turn this one! I'm sure you are as happy to be back in your shop as we are to have you back. Stay well, buddy!!
That is truly a gorgeous bowl, Phil! It was fun trying to follow your text messaged directions for parting the rather large log section and I certainly hope the result was as satisfying for you to turn as it was for me to watch! And best of all, Phil-- you are finally back! Welcome home!
Phil I think your “normal” bowl just serves to show off the abnormal beauty in the spalting. I love
Oh Phil! You think so little of us if you really believe anyone could/would/should be disappointed that this turning is not live edge. It just shows your versatility and it is truly a beautiful piece of wood.
Birch is such a fantastic wood … no wonder furniture designers almost go bananas over it
What do I see? I see master turner plying his trade. Everything you make is well thought out and skillfully executed. This piece makes a nice change from your usual work. Lovely, I would be proud to own it and say it was a Phil Anderson piece. I would be even prouder to have turned it myself, I'll get there. Please, please, keep up the good work, my friend.
Phil don't care what you turn as long as you're turning Enjoy watching you turn. Always an interesting project. Wait patently for each new one.
Thanks Phil, as also said by others, it feels good to share some time with you, and I am always learning something new. I try to let the wood talk to me as well - often it turns out it was in a different language I didn't understand, but I keep trying! This bowl may be a simple one for you, but it has magic, just the same.
