Very impressive! As a blacksmith and a machinist myself, I love watching a craftsman work. Again, most impressive.
Ditto, as a visual artist and maker! I am super confused by the thumbs down, for this video. (If you aren't interested, just skip. If you are from some tree version of PETA, this might make your blood boil, but seriously, CVS receipts are the things you should focus on). This is a Guild worthy craftsman, sharing their passion, and I, like thousands of others are, am completely impressed.
You would be amazed. Dress well is you try this though. I wear a blue lab coat and a face shield when I do something like this. Wood chips go everywhere especially in your hair. It is alot of fun though.
As a woodworker to an extent, really depends on the wood Ziricote smells almost chocolatey, pine has its lovely smell, oak is pleasent But then you have purpleheart that smells like vomit and amerello smells like burnt hair and piss
Finally I have found an artisan on here who is doing exactly what I am trying to learn and all spoken and demonstrated with humility and no nonsense ....absolutely brilliant and informative artisan....thank you for sharing this beautiful craft
Honestly if your serious about learning woodturning take this video with a big grain of salt. Her technique is not good and this video is riddled with mistakes quite dangerous mistakes at that.
Her name is Ashley Harwood and she's a woodturner? That's like straight out of a comic book. Ash is also a type of tree, this is one hell of a coincidence.
She's awesome. Knowledgeable, technical, really beautiful pieces. The contrast between her toughness whilst working and her tenderness whilst speaking is really cool.
Wet wood tends to warp and crack as it drys but turning it is pure joy while dry wood is less fun to turn but won’t have as much trouble with the finished product.
Turning wet wood means you get an idea of what's hidden inside while you wait for it to dry. Turning dry blanks means you get to be surprised. You can buy dry blanks and not have to wait for it to dry. If you take it down yourself, you wait longer for it to dry if you leave it as a round. You can cut blanks, coat it with the goop, then wait for that to get dry enough. Elapsed time on the calendar from tree fall to finished on the shelf is about the same, possibly shorter for wet turning. Then when you get really brave or talented, you can turn and finish it wet and hope for the best or watch it warp and crack all over the place.
Called twice turned. Green turned and allowing it to dry I have a 10% or so loss to checking and drying stress. Remounted and finish turned makes for a great final product. It's even better with a center saver and all of it doesn't end up as shavings.
Great video Ashley! Haven't seen you since I moved from Chucktown. You're a natural at this, PBS needs to pick you up as a host for a woodturning show. Keep up the great work!
I saw many videos about woodturning but didn't know all the process and the time to make a bowl :O patience is the master word for them. Respect to all oh them. :)
Loved this video at so many levels. First, the production quality was excellent and the subject matter herself, inspiring. The lesson for me was Ms. Harwood talking about the value of her apprenticeship where she learned advanced techniques from a master, and in turn was able to proceed on her own path of self excellence. Real investment is dedication of time. Also, kudos to Hyundai for sponsoring this episode.
I'm a potter and I see a lot of the same similarities. The way you work with the wood "meld" with the wood is like when you "meld" with the clay. Beautiful work.
This was an amazing video! Also, good for you for not letting the overall lack of female wood turners dictate your interest in the profession. Well done 👏
This is the type of videos I like of yours... you doing the work and showing us your skills. Really like a lot of the insights you share about yourself and how you got where you are. Great video, pls keep em coming!!
I always admire great craftsman/craftswoman being masters of their craft. The hands on apprenticeship part of learning trade skills, Craftsmanship, tips and tricks learned by old master's is being lost in today's society. Always good to see when someone continues that trade skills tradition.
It's extremely easy, all u need is the machine, wood and a saw to break down the wood and the different blades for it, trust me i did this in highschool 9th grade with and I made a bowl for my 1st time and it's easier than it looks u just can't be aggressive with the wood
@@xaviersoto5123 yeah my brother is a woodworker and has been doing stuff like this since he was a freshman in high school. I have turned some stuff on his lathe and I can also say it's easier that it looks.
@@tsaurus5051 exactly my school has a wood workshop I've been doing this sense 9th grade I started off with small things and than bigger, all u gotta do is listen to what the person tells u and your good but if u don't try or listen then it obviously gonna be hard but these people don't understand that.
Tere are not many woodturners in this day and age that go and select wood from the world and turn it in its green state. Most get predried blanks and go from there. It is great to see a master (?) at work, and the end pices are lovely.
So I'd like to say the chainsaw isn't about strength, but it also is. I was a lumberjack for 3 years and our land conservation crew of 10 people were half Male and half Female. The thing I noticed is that all 5 women qualified to use the saw, while only 3 of us men did well enough to fully qualify. Interestingly, only one of the girls preferred to cut, while the others opted to haul off the slash as often as they could. It seemed a bit funny to me because they all were quite skilled with it. I wasn't on the saw for the first couple weeks because I hurt my back in an unrelated incident, but when I got cleared for full duty, I learned quickly why they didn't like it so much. While the saw didn't take a lot of strength to use, it really took a lot of endurance to keep using it for extended periods. So do you need more finesse than strength? Yes. That being said, you still need a good amount of strength and endurance to actually use it for more than a minute. The wood worker in the video clearly has them all.
Finally someone that doesn't NEED to use Resin, I've never used resin myself however I see the artistic nuance in it but I also believe in maybe leaving the holes and doughy wood there in the piece. I have not seen many people rough turn a partially dried piece and being from Far North Queensland, Australia where we dry our timber first before we turn or in the old days , dry our timber under water. However I do understand the reason for the rough turning for colder places as here is tropical Rainforest and Dry Savannah wood. Keep up the good work Ashley Harwood and your name like Silver Ash Hardwood, a native to this area.
I pound on my keyboard with a lot of strength and have the tendonitis to show for it 🙌 😁 It takes a lot of effort to sit with a numb butt in an uncomfortable chair all day, ouch 🍑
Nice work. My dad paid his way through the London College of Furniture by wood turning in the 60’s. He could turn a blank to bowl in two minutes, and gain a group of observers. He would send off a continuous shaving, like an apple peel, then ask which shoulder and direct the shaving over that shoulder. Whilst I wasn’t born then, it was confirmed he did this by his old land lord who saw it and became a long term family friend.
I haven't turned in months cuss of school, but this is something that for me, you can get lost in and spend hours working with wood and the lathe. It's a nice change if you are always thinking about scheduling time. Also I'm a little worried she isn't wearing a mask when sharpening the bowl gouge. That metal dust is nasty 😳.
So that's the proper atire for this kind of work ? With all the dust and pieces of wood flying everywhere i thought long sleaves would be the standard... 🤔
@@noemierollindedebeaumont1130 It's true wood chippings/sawdust can irritate the skin. Wearing long sleeves can be a real snagging hazard with tools such as lathes. The speed means that if hair or clothing does catch you can be pulled against or into the machine very quickly. You're better off getting hit with woodchips

did anyone suspect there would be a wood turners organization? also i feel like she could turn all these wood shavings in to some nice custom hand made paper.
Ashley is such skilled and hardworking beauty but, just personal curiosity, is it safe to do those woodworking without any mask on? wouldnt it be a damage to the lung if its inhaled continuosly?
@@adnanebelfaquir thankss for ur explanation , i havent find any comments regarding the mask tho. Well maybe she didnt wear mask just for the video, but still its important
She should have been wearing a face shield ALL the time. I have experience with a wood lathe and in one split second of inattention, I was hit in the face shield by the tip of the tool. It cracked the shield but it saved my face.
I like how people always bring up diversity in craftsmanship. The only way it can get more diverse, is if more people take an interest in it. It's literally no one's fault besides the person who isn't learning how to use their hands.
I think the sex of the person is relevant. I want to see more females doing this kind of stuff because many females don't know that they can do it, are welcome to do it and they will get heaps of support from almost everyone when doing it if they need. An occupation that needs females for it to stay relevant means sex is definitely relevant. Ashley showed me that turning has more to it than what the male masters show. That's so very refreshing and she's someone I look up to. I'm a 40 year old man.

@@ryanbishop3343 ok, but the females are going to be limited by the stock they're able to move by hand, because at some point, you have to move the piece. Or they will ask for the help of the husband or male coworker. When I worked in retail, I was the one that they sent when they needed a paper ream case.. because fact it, none of the female employee would have been able to move a 40 lb 8000 pages total - ream case. This was basically two ream cases strapped together. Or they could have sent two employees with a box cutter to do the job in twice the time. That's the reality.
Agree with you 9aguirre, gender or diversity, what the heck does that have to do with wood turning? it's ridiculous, that this has to be brought up all the time. then some angry femnazis will turn on you and argue, and judge you, if you point out how ridiculous it all really is. Fact is, any one, no matter which of the TWO genders there are or any skin color can turn wood if they wanted to learn and do it. wokeness is the most ignorant shi7 to come out these days
The arrogance to proclaim yourself as a master of anything especially at such a young age.. It's disrespectful to the true masters that have come previously this girl's Arrogance never ceases to amaze me. Of all of the master Turners I've ever met not one of them referred to themselves as a master Turner
I took a 3 day class with her after 10 years of being of turner. It was an amazing class that make me more efficient

I always assumed it was better to turn dry wood. I learned something today.
Wet wood tends to warp and crack as it drys but turning it is pure joy while dry wood is less fun to turn but won’t have as much trouble with the finished product.
Two different beast and experiences. A lot of wood turners do a twice turned bowl. Rough it out, dry it, then final turn.
Turning wet wood means you get an idea of what's hidden inside while you wait for it to dry. Turning dry blanks means you get to be surprised. You can buy dry blanks and not have to wait for it to dry. If you take it down yourself, you wait longer for it to dry if you leave it as a round. You can cut blanks, coat it with the goop, then wait for that to get dry enough. Elapsed time on the calendar from tree fall to finished on the shelf is about the same, possibly shorter for wet turning.

"It's more about the finesse than strength"
*pulls out a chainsaw*
What’s so hard about a chainsaw? They aren’t heavy, they aren’t difficult to use.
A chainsaw literally does the work for you! You may as well say "pulls out the dishwasher" in the context of it being difficult.
How much finesse can you use cutting up a tree trunk?
@@gbwildlifeuk8269
A lot. Like any power tool, you can use an amazing amount of finesse. The more finesse, the less effort and *way* less dangerous.
So I'd like to say the chainsaw isn't about strength, but it also is. I was a lumberjack for 3 years and our land conservation crew of 10 people were half Male and half Female. The thing I noticed is that all 5 women qualified to use the saw, while only 3 of us men did well enough to fully qualify. Interestingly, only one of the girls preferred to cut, while the others opted to haul off the slash as often as they could. It seemed a bit funny to me because they all were quite skilled with it.

Agree with you 9aguirre, gender or diversity, what the heck does that have to do with wood turning? it's ridiculous, that this has to be brought up all the time. then some angry femnazis will turn on you and argue, and judge you, if you point out how ridiculous it all really is. Fact is, any one, no matter which of the TWO genders there are or any skin color can turn wood if they wanted to learn and do it. wokeness is the most ignorant shi7 to come out these days
She's really good at handling wood.
Turning's all fun and fine until you hit a nail or chunk of metal.
The arrogance to proclaim yourself as a master of anything especially at such a young age.. It's disrespectful to the true masters that have come previously this girl's Arrogance never ceases to amaze me. Of all of the master Turners I've ever met not one of them referred to themselves as a master Turner
