Hi Phil. Just saying, one of the reasons why so many of us follow you so much is that you are not concerned with workpieces that are perfect and symmetrical. Lots of people do that stuff, including me, but watching them is like watching paint dry. It’s your very craziness that makes your work so good. Cheers Richard
Thanks for that, Richard! 😊 Try some crazy sometime, I think you will find you like it (might take a couple) and will get more great comments on your work.
My wife and sons claim I am slightly off center, so I like a bowl that reflects my personality! You must have been talking to them just before turning this gorgeous piece of elm!
Personally i never cared for the square corners but this bowl is just lovely i would be proud to display. I love seeing your work and what your imagination can produce. Never been disappointed in any thing you have created. THANK YOU ,for sharing your art with the world.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Elm bowl in the books. I need a bowl like this for when I eat soup bc it would keep all my spills from going on my table cloth...lol 😆
Yaaay, it’s a Phil video! It’s bedtime here, and it’s so peaceful to unwind to your videos and to read the comments. Good people in the world. Talented people. Beautiful things.
Phil, I enjoy watching your videos. I'm not a woodworker but appreciate your honest videos. It feels like we are friends and you are teaching me how to turn the beautiful bowls you make. It seems that you genuinely love what you do and you simply invite us into your shop to watch what you do. I find your videos relaxing, educational, and I look forward to each one. Best wishes!
Wade, I can say that most certainly“Phil” has inspired the way I turn. He has also pointed me towards others PAPA 1947 , Gord Rock etc. Without his influence and information I’d certainly be struggling. 🙂
Phil, we don't think you're crazy. We *know* you're crazy and that's why we watch you. You take pieces of wood that most people would put in the burn barrel and produce an amazing work of art.
I love the honey colored elm finish. Nature is to be appreciated with it's unique features. Bravo. Thanks for the tips on diamond cards and burs on the scraper. 🔷
Hey Phil, A majority of your viewers love you for just this sort of natural attitude towards a piece of wood. I know I keep coming back for it. Like you said at the beginning, you could go to the store to buy a porcelain bowl if you wanted to have a perfectly symmetrical piece. Keep up the great work/fun Pal!
Phil, I enjoy it most when you turn some crazy, rooty piece of wood with rocks and cracks and everything else. Still, these videos with more well-behaved wood are outstanding and probably a bit easier on you, too! Thanks for letting us join you every week. Hope you're continuing to feel good.
Thank you, Leigh! I, too, love the crazy pieces with cracks and voids and all manner of foreign objects. But, it is fun to turn at a higher RPM and just feel the smooth cuts happen. 😊
Thank You Phil, Thank You Dave Smith in Arizona....Nice hard wood with no cracks....Thanks for the diamond dresser techniques Phil. ... NO PHIL, YOU DO NOT DRIVE ME CRAZY. Your imperfectious (ha) turnings are exactly why you are so much fun to watch & I do not need another flawless ceramic cereal bowl thank you. UNTIL NEXT TIME...TM
"Imperfectious" I love that, term, Tuffy! I will be using that in the future. I've always had a hard time defining my style, I think you've nailed it! 😊
Phil I love your channel!! I started into wood turning about 5Years ago when I Inherited a entry level lathe from my father. Turning is so much fun. I had to upgrade to a Jet latheVS. You are the best teacher of your craft. Thank you for sharing your expertise. You have given me the courage to try new projects. All my friends are amazed at the bowls I have made. I love your conversational style. It makes me feel like i’m in the shop with you! Thanks again Phil McGhee
We know you are crazy Phil, you are "special" and it's what we love about you lol. A pretty bowl and the imperfections make it unique and very special. Thank you mate.
Phil The beauty of the uncovered wood grain takes the eye away from any uneveness It went unnoticed until you started pointing them out. Nice turning. John
Looking good! Whenever I make something from Elm, I can't help but use the word chatoyance, because someone always asks why it's so shiny. I love using that word too, it's a cool word. Star wars fans can see the Death Star inside this bowl. I learned about Howard's from you, and I use it all the time, I just love that stuff.
Looks great as always. You’re right the “not perfect” edges and spacing makes it perfect. I love the square shape and I can’t wait to try one. Thanks for the lesson!
What's crazy to me is the fact that we as wood turners seem to get a little bit of criticism for creating something that nobody else could ever see to begin with. That to me is where the artists mind begins to go where the art needs to be. Happy turning my friend 😊
Hey Phil! I believe the slightly off center bowl to the wing portion adds a nice dimension of the bowl. I didn’t thing so when you saw that the wings would not be even, but it adds a feature that adds to the appeal to the bowl. Nice, as usual!
Absolutely perfect the finish is so silky looking and I always do love how you think outside the box and don make boring bowls! Also I am not a fan at all of beads but it is just so fitting on this it helps define the shape and I think it goes well with with the straight edges, I don’t think a curve would have been as fitting! Good as always Phil you’re the best!!!
Really nice work Phil. I'm always amazed by the finish you are able to achieve. I think the shape suits the piece. The other profile I like for winged bowls is a gentle downward curve. It seems to soften the otherwise sharp edges of a flat rectangle.
How on earth do you look at that block of wood and see a beautiful a winged bowl inside? When we say you're an artist (despite your objections), this is what we mean.
I absolutely love your unique projects! One of the reason I watch you is that you let each piece of wood guide the shape/design of the bowl. I also enjoy how you leave the "nature" in your designs. I agree with you..."perfect" bowls are boring to me. One of the other things I like about you is that you enjoy the "feel" of the wood in the same way that I do. I love your channel!!!
What a unique and beautiful "Screwacky" bowl. Gorgeous piece of Elm. I love watching you create your natural kinds of bowls and art pieces. The finish on this bowl is really nice. Great piece Phil! Love it! 💕😊
Phil even screw wacky looks gorgeous. Thank you for the few tips I walked away with tonight. This is always a great finish for my TNT Thursday night turn. I hope to see you next Thursday night. Have a great week.
It's because of you that I went from needing perfect to needing perfectly unique. U have inspired me to do more stuff with natural bark and cracks and holes...perfectly UNIQUE. I've only berm turning for almost a yr.
Of course we like it , that means much more than a simply round bowl , the mere idea of the square top is great , makes all the difference , surely interesting for woodturners !
Good evening, Phil. I like your bowl. I like the wings. I like the wings even if they are different. I like the finish. I like the raised part on top. I like the shape. I like your video. Thanks for making a great end to my Thursday. All the best to you my friend.
Hi Phil! I've been a wood carved for a number of years and just got into "turning". Been watching a lot of videos, and have really enjoyed yours. You are a great " teacher/instructor" and I really enjoy watching your skill at work and hearing your commentary! Thank you!
Hi Phil What a lovely piece of work. I was one of those who thought everything had to be concentric until I started watching you. Your right that we need the finished work to be interesting and full of character. My wife still thinks that I have made a mistake even if there is a knot in my work 🤣🤣. Keep on doing what your doing, we all love it. Regards Mike
It's been a few weeks since I added a comment. I have been busy and have watched every video. Don't change the way that you think a piece of wood should be. I made a bowl for our neighbor from part of a tree that was cut down in her yard. I left the live edge and bark inclusions and she loved it. I owe that to you. Thanks so much for your video's.
Wonderful story, Alan! I love that you could make your neighbor lady happy with a piece of her tree including the bark she may have touched while it was still standing! 😊
Hi Phil, you've said."Im not so much into perfection.." Thats exactly what makes your work so sympathic. The winged bowl looks great, the grain turned out very nicely. Well done. I've never turned a winged bowl but i will definitely try. Thanks Phil !
Hi Phil, another beautiful work of art made by you and Mother Nature!!!!! Yesterday I hopped on the lawn tractor to mow and click, click, click, dead battery. The six sided 7/16th nuts and bolts refused to work with my 12-point box wrenches, so it was vise-grips to get the wires disconnected from the battery and off to Advance Auto for a new battery, 6-point wrenches and new battery post bolts. Oh, and the two clips on my battery charger eroded to being useless. Well $78 and change later and sandpaper to clean the corrosion off of the wire ends, my yard is now freshly mowed and looks great. After watching your video and calming down I decided to wait a few days before I change the oil and sharpen the blades on the mower. There are many things that you just can't rush besides wood turning!!!!!
I love it to be honest, and as the artist Bob Ross used to say there are no mistakes there are just happy accidents and I think it’s a lovely little bowl. Well done.
Actually I Loved you comment and outlook in leaving slight imperfections in you projects. I never sell any of my wood workings, but I give a ton of them away. With each piece, the recipient gets a note on how to care for it and my personal message that I Never strive to make my wood project perfect, because the only time wood is perfect is when it is on a tree as God made it. Thank you Phil, John
You should never apologize for turning unique shapes. That's who you are and why a lot of us watch you. Always a pleasure.
I like it Phil it’s just great
I think Monte said it right. And yes you are always a Pleasure.
Thanks, Monte! 😊
Their is no mistakes, it’s seen through the artist’s eyes. Phil has the eye.👍👍👍👍
Oi

As long as a project has great grain structure, you always show it. Thank you.
Thank you, William! 😊

It’s so nice to watch someone create art
The “defects” are definitely not a minus 💜
Thank you! You make two SWFG's in our group! 😊
Phil .. I love everything about your Screwacky bowl.. .. wish I possessed your vision of planning the outcome of a piece of wood...
My vision is, mount it and start turning, Cecil. It will become something! 😊

I love 11pm on a Thursday in the UK, a Shady Acre video pings in😃. Another fantastic piece Phil love it 👍

Cool, thanks, Michele! 😊

Thank you, Stuart! It does work very well. 😃
