- Woodturning - I dig out an old rough turned oak box and finish it at last with some texturing and colouring with ebonising lacquer and iridescent paints...

Since I started making these videos in 2017, I have been lucky enough to receive the support of some manufacturers with materials to use in my videos. Since May 2018, Chestnut Products have provided me with stains, an iridescent paints sample set, lacquers and waxes. I'd like to thank them for their kind and generous support. Martin Saban-Smith has provided me with a sample set of Intrinisic Colours.
All other products and tools, unless where indicated, have been bought from suppliers at retail prices. Products mentioned in my videos are for information purposes so that viewers know what I have used.
Hi Stewart...lovely little box...really like the texturing....All the best.....Andy
Cheers Andy. Glad you like it and thanks for subscribing.
Very elegant Stewart!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎
Thanks, Alan - pleased with how this came out.
I love it along with your poetic description.
Levis
Thanks for commenting - delighted you liked this video. A bit of poetry goes a long way! Cheers!
What I have been taught today. Turn green oak into shape before drying. the versatility of the Proxon long neck carver. When to leave colour OFF and leave wood natural ( I do like Oak grain). Thanks Stewart for a great video again....
Cheers, Ian! Wait till you see my video about how to cock a box up!
Really nice shape and color to this box. I really like it! 💜
Thank you, Tracey. It was fun to do and have a play around with the iridescent colours. Cheers!
Excellent as usual. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Micheal - it was fun to do!
Nice Piece, thanks for sharing. Full View and Like
Thank you! Cheers!
Very nice box, I love the texturing.
Thanks
James
Thanks, James - this was fun to do. Glad you like it!
Well done as always... I like the color contrast with the turquoise. Oh... And I was one of the ones laughing at you at 5:30..... 😉😆
Thanks, Holly! Glad you like this one....and glad it gave you a laugh!
A box am I watching the wrong channel, nice one Stewart great texture and colour and nice and chunky box ,you go for it 👍 👍👍
Haha....cheers, Barry. Good to do different things every now and then...
nice job
Thanks, sleuth - glad you like it. Cheers!
That turned out really nice. The natural grain contrasts the color well. It's very subdued and, dare I say, subtle. Yes, I was laughing when you said that!
Glad to give you a chuckle, William! Cheers!!
Hey Stewart good job. Boxes are fun to turn. Thanks
Thanks, Steven - yes they are...off to do some more!
Lovely little box, Stewart! Really cool effects with the texturing and JS paint.
Billy
Thanks, Billy! Glad you like it - this was fun to do. Cheers!
Stewart, as always you can take a simple box and take it into the sublime with your use of color. I do think as a child you were deprived the use of crayons and chalk. You are certainly making up lost time in that arena. Good work my man.
Lol 😂
Cheers, Tom - weirdly, stationery was always pretty high up on my Christmas wishlists as a kid!
All English teachers are frustrated artists!
Also, funny Tom.
A beautiful piece Stewart, great work once again mate.
Cheers
Mike
Thank you, Mike! After I'd done this, I thought why don't I do some more boxes....could be a theme for a few more videos!
I had to watch this video on mute. The wife is asleep early tonight and I do not want to wake her. So, I was momentarily distracted and missed how you managed to get such a beautiful color. That was when I realized the color I was in wonderment with was the jam chuck. Oh, yeah that turquoise on black was nice also. Thanks for another great video Stewart...
Hahah...yeah, the jam chuck has got a couple of comments of its own! Glad you liked the end result. Cheers!
Great color nice video
Thank you! Glad you like it! Cheers!!
Great job as always :)
Cheers! Can't resist doing colour and texture!
I like it
Cheers, Greg!
Lovely and elegant box 😊👌
Thanks! I was pleased with this one!
Beautiful little box, superb job on the texturing and color as always well done. Thanks for sharing Stewart.
My pleasure - thanks, Gary! Cheers!
Again, you outdid yourself funwise and learning wise.
Levis
Thanks, Levis - it's fun making boxes, for sure!
Stewart, your skis with colours and textures leave the rest of us way behind, maybe except for Martin Ha Ha. Congrats! Cheers, Sean
Thanks, Sean - glad you enjoyed this one!
I love how that turned out! Almost like it could glow in the dark! Great job! 🤙
Cheers, Angie! At one point it had about three different colours on, but that did look a bit messy, even to me! Turquoise all the way!
It's Beautiful Stuart!
Thanks, Steve!
That’s actually quite nice. Texturing and colour works really well.
Love it that you still had all the natural wood in too. Not so sure about the centre raised but on the lid and the base looked like you had a mortise on it rather than being flat and smooth.
Really enjoyable video as usual though!
Thanks, Paul - you're not the only one to pick out those features. I did keep the tenon on top (though it was finish turned so it couldn't be gripped on and then tried to mirror this with an impression on the bottom and underside of the lid...might need a bit more finesse! Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers!
I really like making boxes and this one's so beautiful, you've given me inspiration for my next box. ❤️it 😁
Thanks, Miss Tee - glad you like it and it's inspired you. Cheers!
You probably dont give a shit but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can stream all the new movies on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my brother for the last few months :)
@Tony Bowen definitely, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for since november myself =)
Thought I was on the wrong channel no platters lol . Beautiful box I really liked the texturing . Cheers .
Cheers, Glen - it came out nicely, I think!
Nice work Stewart... you definitely have a head for adventure in design...wouldn't want to look inside though ...too scary😱🤪👻 really enjoy your channel... blessings...stay safe😎
Hahaha...me neither! Glad you enjoy my videos. Cheers!
You know I would never laugh at you about not being subtle. Giggle perhaps, but never a full-throated laugh.
In this case I think you actually did it. I love the texture and the hint of color over the black. BTW, a functional small box should have a relatively thick base to provide stability. I'm sure someone will love it.
Cheers, Bill - yep, I do like a heavy bottom in my boxes...did another one today....a video for another day!
👍👍
Cheers, George!
Agreed Stewart, boxes are fun and there's an endless combination of themes and forms. For me, the challenge is not getting a good fit for the lid, but remaining so for any length of time! I used Jo Sonja paints for the first with Alan Maggs, last month, they are surely the best. I do love the English oak but it can be a bit bland, so blinging it up is a good idea. Thanks for sharing this Stewart!
Cheers, William - I do love the end grain of oak - almost more than the side grain. I was pleased with how this came out.
Hi Stewart, Quite new to your channel and having just bought Jo Sonja's paints found this video to be very good for me. Can you use black spray paint instead of the Ebonizing Lacquer?. Cheers, Huw
Hi Huw - I am sure they will work fine over black paint. Good luck!
I read through all comments to find out if anyone else asked before I ask, what is the small light floating along from middle right screen, right across your eyes and then went out of sight to the left at about 9:30? Love your vids!
Thanks for commenting. Glad you enjoy the videos. It's a small magnetic led light but some idiot sprayed it with black paint.....wait till I find out it was!
Anything for charity is good in my book. Although I really like the style. Black is my favourite.
Cheers, Simon - it is a great cause......but it didn't get in the top three for my club competition....boo!
@@stewartfurini. Boo tough competition then.
Better luck next time 👍🏻
Hello Stewart,
I like your box. I like oak. The texture is nicely rustic and the colouring takes it out of the farmhouse and into the lounge. Is this a nod to iridescence, or are the layered strips still on? Perhaps try metallics first. They are very similar and the more subdued coppers and bronzes for lower levels could avoid the need to try dulling down lower level iridescent strips. Maybe iridescent on top of metaliic and leave the black out altogether. Regards, Glenn. :-)
Cheers, Glen - glad you like it. The ribbon strips are still on - soon to reappear if nothing else gets in the way...
Hi Stewart
Subtle colouring is not an expression I would use to describe your work normally. You may even have heard some laughter when you mentioned the phrase. However, when we see the end results we have to acknowledge that you have indeed achieved the desired effect. Very nice and go to the top of the class.
One question, at about 6.55 in the video the box seemed to go a coppery gold colour, please explain as You confused my 70 years plus brain.
Cheers
Roger
I can do really subtle sometimes! The answer to your confusion is an old coloring demo piece used as a jam chuck to reverse the box body so I could take the chucking tenon off...
Hiya, did you use the paint right from the tube?
Hi Debbie - I forgot to say it had a couple of drops of flow medium in. Cheers!
I wondered.
Maybe doing the iridescent stuff on the oak color would have been fabulous. I don't care for the black stuff.
Maybe, Christi...I've not tried it on bare wood as it gives such a strong contrast over dark colours....will have to have a go! Cheers!
The iridescent paint only shows up properly if put on a black or other very dark ground. That way the light bounces off the mica particles.
estas echo un Bangkok en Moreno 😂😂😂😂👍🇪🇸
Thanks, Andres!
What do you mean no platter? I demand a refund!
Rather pretty little box though.
Send my your paypal details then, Pete :) lol....glad like you the box! Cheers!
