I was astonished at the shape of the edge when you stopped the lathe to turn the piece. On the screen the shape of the piece of wood was not obvious. I admire your ability to spot the potential lurking in the most unpromising (to me) materials. Your natural edge forms are my favourites, and this undulant edge with the striking pale layer under the bark is outstanding.
Thanks so much 👍
Yew is one of my favorite woods, there isn't much out there that challenges the grain and colour of yew, imo.
I did a chainsaw job for a big house with quite substantial grounds several years ago. They wanted a few trees removed for an access road they were putting in for something. One of the trees was an ornamental yew tree apparently from Japan. They didn't care much about it and had no real use for the wood outside of burning it. They let me take as much of it as I could fit in the van, and after 2 years of drying and curing was rewarded with one of the craziest grained and coloured woods I have ever encountered! 😀
I always love it when you work with Yew, it's such a pretty wood. This was definitely worth the wobble! Well done. . .

Oh please, Wood Yew shut up…….
Sorry lol
Yes wood. First time hearing about it. Must be worth a good bit of change.
that wobble had me worried there for a while
Simply gorgeous! I love projects like this where you don’t need stain or color, you just provide oil and let the wood speak for itself.
I always find myself wondering about the output from the lathe. For some of these projects with such unique color and grain, I’d be fascinated to see you take the larger wood-curls and peelings, combine and compress the heck out of them, and then resin and grind it into something unique. Dunno if that would work well or not, but might be fun to try!
Years ago my dad use a lathe, he would take the wood chips and shaving and mix them with resin and what he turned out were amazing. 😊
YEW made another great choice with this bowl! i could tell from the start this would be a great live edge piece and that’s exactly what yew had in mind as well. what a beauty
Yew did a great job on this piece. Little bit of rock and roll in the opening. May I say outstanding.
Holy cow!!! When you said it made your lathe wobble you weren't joking!!!!
Very beautiful...
Ah perfect timing. These videos always help me relax before I sleep. Thanks for making them :)
Yup. 👍. Your videos are just Wonderful 🙃 🙂. 🙋
Yeah, we know. You go to sleep and make one of your own. 😉😉
I love the dimensions: how you kept it rather firm. It underlines the rough edge. The simple form adds to the bold and sturdy character of the wood. Nice!
It looks like a tulip! The color is really pretty and I love the light/white edge on it. It’s really beautiful! Well done 💜
I've had a vision for the last 55 years of a timber frame log and stone house that I designed when I was 15. This vase would fit perfectly into it in a place of honor in the foyer (though I'll never build the house, not needing the enormous debt it would generate, not at 70 years old).
YOU made this YEW look awesome!!!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
…sorry, couldn’t resist! 😅
For such a lovely piece Yew turned 🎖🎖🎖Triple Star Rating 🤩
I watch all of your shows when I can or save them to watch later. You do awesome work. Beautiful pieces.
Thank you
That's just gorgeous. Natural edge pieces are my favourite.
I just love watching you work.
I have one word for this " Magnificent".
Magnificent yew! The entire vessel is stunning, and the way the sapwood's vividly contrasting color enhances the natural edge is spectacular! You've done it again, Andy!
Thanks 👍
Nice. I have a beautiful lamp that my uncle turned out of a piece of Pacific Yew, forty years ago. I found some yew when I was hand logging on the BC coast. Gave some to my father who gave it to my uncle. My mom bought the lamp and gave it to my wife and I when we got married. It has been my bedside lamp for a long time.
Andy Phillips and yew. Doesn't get better than that.
😅👍
everytime i see one your vids it never fails to amze me. from a blob of wood/something to a masterpiece!
I'm speechless...that is absolutely gorgeous!
You just have an artist's eye when it comes to bowl and vase design, Andy. The most subtle differences/changes, can have a huge impact on the overall look of a piece and you always nail it. I'm envious! Great job!
Phil
Thanks so much Phil.. hope your doing OK my friend take care 👍
Very nice Andy. It is definitely a one off, so you could say it is a Yewnique piece.
I had a chance to turn Yew once, and I loved it. Lots of character and color, close grained and hard, took a nice polish. I think you should have send that piece of wood to me, just like we talked about . . . 😉
WOW that grain looks like a topographic map. GREAT turn, yew did a GREAT job! !! !!!
that was almost half a tree at the start! turned out amazing as usual thanks for making these videos ❤️🏴
That's a beautiful piece I've never seen yew before one of my new favorites
What a lovely vase! It looks like a tulip with that beautiful natural edge and its shape.
Thanks
That's a beautiful piece of wood given the perfect shape to show it off. Not much delays Hubby on his way out in the morning, but if I get the notification that you've uploaded, it's surprising how slowly he's able to get ready (without taking an eye off the screen lol). He's as in awe of your talent as I am, and he used to be a tree surgeon, so he loves the wood for its own sake to start with. Seeing it becoming a work of art on top of its natural beauty is the icing on his very big cake!
Thanks.... glad he likes the vids 👍
That is astonishingly beautiful.
Yew did it again. It’s awesome from every angle.
That's a beautiful bowl made from Yew.👌👌👍👍
Wow, what a beautiful piece of wood, yew did a great job there.
That is gorgeous. 100 years growing to become such a lovely piece at your hands. Great choice of where to mount it, really accentuated the figuring.... and what great shavings lol.
Cheers
Yew is always so gorgeous and I just love the natural edge on the top!
The wobble you called turned out great loved the color 👍👍👍
Thankyou ... Yew always turns out cool 👍
Makes my lathe wobble too. Oh no, it was my legs. That is gorgeous!
Just amazing Andy, this why I love woodturing. Keep the dream alive. 🏆🏆🏆.Ernie smith from brisbane Australia
Thanks Ernie 👍
Wonderous. The way you work that piece make all the growth line come out beautifully! Congratulation.
Thankyou
Another beautiful gem Andy. Great job!
I couldn't wait to see what that end grain was going to look like and when you were done it came very beautiful Andy.
Thanks Alan 👍
That's great, Andy. The shape of the log gave an unusual natural edge rim and the sap wood was was a nice accent under the bark.
Bill
Thanks Bill 👍
Once again, thank 'YEW' for getting my Friday and the weekend off to a great start.
Love the form and the natural edge!
Thanks 👍
Yew did a fantastic job with this!! I love the simplicity.
It looks a lot like a tulip. Gorgeous
Yew is so much fun. Love the undulations of the rim. And that you kept the bark on. Well done.
It's so beautiful ❣️ I especially love the white strip at the top wavy edge❣️
Wood must be one of the best mediums to work with...this is beautifull.
This is stunning. Love the grain, the color and the live edge. Beautiful job. 💕😊💕
Thanks 👍
Amazing work! Always like seeing the process to make your finished work.
Yew did an AMAZING job on that piece absolutely love it well done
Beautiful. Love the grain.💖💖💖
This is a very beautiful vase. I like it
Thankyou
That's a stunning piece of wood and woodwork.
Great turning with a beautiful result.
Andy, you did a fantastic job of this yew. Well done.
Wow! Watching how you started this one to how you finished it was so interesting. This vase is beautiful, Andy. Another amazing job! 💜
A striking piece. Another for my wish list. 👍🏻
Glorious piece of wood ❤️ the markings in it are fantastic
Absolutely beautiful… gorgeous work
I sat on my first cheap lathe to stop it jumping around as the slowest speed was 600 rpm. Great video as always. Rob
Lucky woodturner who found such a perfect piece of yew ! No cracks , thin softwood , ideal growth , where the hell does it come from ? In western France you surely won''t find such one ! ( I would have previously removed much for a better balance and also not even thought of cutting the endgrain facing me , no easy task but obviously the better idea !) , congratulations !
Another masterpiece my friend! Love to watch big chunks of wood dwindle into pieces of art.
I have to agree with the comment below and its so neat to be able to see the growth rings.
That turned out amazing!!
That live edge is amazing! 😍
Lovely piece, beautifully done. 🤩
Yew did a very nice job on that one! Stay well.
That's an absolutely stunning piece, Andy, really pretty. The outer grain is spectacular.
Gorgeous grain! I love the shape of the rim!
Yew never disappoint! Lol That vase is gorgeous ❣️❣️
I really love this piece of yew wood the colours and grain are awesome. I love how you turn a piece of wood into an magnificent item and the fact you did put any form of stain on it just used the oil so the wood keeper its natural colours and the natural Edge is great thanks for a fantastic masterpiece and video.

Another beautiful piece!
I never would have thought that would come out always impressed
From a ok chunk of wood to an absolutely gorgeous piece!
Well, despite the wobble, another beautiful piece in a beautiful wood! ❤
My favourite tree and your vase looks great.
Beautiful piece Andy
Take care my friend and enjoy the trekking
Cheers
Harold

Thanks Rita
A beautiful piece
Thanks
Excellent work as always Andy.
Beautiful .... and a lovely sense of form.
Beautiful piece Andy. Absolutely love it :)
Absolutely beautiful !!
Отличная ваза , с красивой текстурой!.
In one piece a lot of contrasts: form, colour. Congratulation to your phantasy.
Many thanks!
This turned out spectacular Andy! But I'm not surprised! Another exquisite masterpiece from The King Of The Woodturners!! Vivat Rex!!
Yew really knocked that one out of the park. 😉
I would never have thought so much beauty could come out of a gnarly yew tree. We have a large yew in our backyard and the trunks not particularly attractive....but oh, within the rough husk is a gem. Nice one Andy 👍
Fantastic piece Andy! 😊
What an imagination!! Another masterpiece.
that is breathtakingly beautiful
I love the edge of this one!
that's Awesomeness right there Andy ! Thumbs up as always
Thanks Doug 👍
Beautifully done!
Beautiful from one side it looks like a giant sea clam even the grain looks the same as a shell .wonderful piece😘😘
