Beautiful........

[split29445]

OMFG that burl is beautiful. I absolutely love turning burl... even though ive only had a chance to turn two bowls from it.

[MatthewLeisher]

I had absolutely no interest in woodworking before I saw this video.

[haydenHD]

@MatthewLeisher :) that's awesome glad you liked it.

[bond3737]

hayden love your videos, very informative. When you knock off the bottom piece with a chisel how do you secure your piece?

[haydenHD]

@bond3737 I wrapped it in a towel and just held onto it.

i'm watching all your videos. i'm not done yet so i might answer the question i have ina future episode. but, something i'm wondering about this particular project. If the bark is on the side like that, it means that you are turning end grain ? or is there something i'm missing there ? if you have any more details to give concerning these natural edges bowls, i'd appreciate. they are so incredible ! MERCI !

[haydenHD]

@bigguix Hi Merci, Yes at two points you are turning end grain.

[teamfab]

Really enjoyed this video, might just buy myself a turning lathe..

[demon39063]

I'm amazed the glue holds that

[MOLRobocop]

How good can this guy really be? He still has all of his fingers! ;-)

[marcelobest]

I want your job. Badly.

[gardengirlbc]

what exactly does the mix of oil and wax on sandpaper do??? how does that sand any tearing?

[haydenHD]

@gardengirlbc It eliminates the sanding dust. I like a satin finish so I use the wax as my final finish. The wax and oil actually keeps the sand paper clean and dose a much better job than dry.

[laverty22]

What is that you are putting on your sandpaper???

[haydenHD]

@laverty22 mineral oil and paste wax. 10 parts paste wax and 1 part mineral oil.

[rctractorboy]

can you use any kind of wood

[haydenHD]

@rctractorboy Yes but hard wood cuts and finishes much better.

[sneezie22]

Very nice turning...thank you and have a great day : )

[haydenHD]

@sneezie22 Thank you,

[xk4rilsk0]

beautiful.

[Jerry2665]

very nice work.

[haydenHD]

Thank you,

[davidsl222]

Hello, still enjoying your videos. You use the tools differently than others I have watched and do very nice work so there is more than one way to do things. What is the reason you sand with the mineral oil/paste wax mixture? I always sand and then put on any wax or oil finish after. Thanks.

[haydenHD]

I mostly sand with the mineral oil and wax to cut down on the dust.

Thanks,

Carl

[oombella]

hi, im interested in starting turning, and i find your videos really put over the enjoyment of it. i think ill be getting a lathe ordered this weekend, so my misses and i can start competing with eachother to see who can make the sexiest project. cheers for the instruction. awesome!

[haydenHD]

Good luck with the competition. Would be great to see some pictures of you and your misses projects.

Thanks,

Carl

[markaardvark]

Very nice!

What is the product that you are finishing it with?

[haydenHD]

Thank you,

It's paste wax and mineral oil.

[markaardvark]

@haydenHD Is it a mixture that you have made up? If so, what is the ratio? Thanks.

[haydenHD]

I mix it ten to one ten parts being the paste wax.

[woodentoolcompany]

Nice video...Well done!

[haydenHD]

Thank you,

[Mueiwark]

Stunning grain on that burl, great work!

[haydenHD]

Thanks,

[BradburyGuy]

Great work as usual Carl. THANKS!

I am having a serious problem finding wood for turning here in Castle Rock and Longview. I found a source for some nice hardwood but nothing over eight quarter. Do you have any suggestions where I might aquire wood at a reasonable cost?

[haydenHD]

Hi Guy,

I found a supplier in Southern Oregon. They have a YouTube channel called Oregonburls. I don't have a price list from them, but I grew up in Southern Oregon and next time I am down visiting family, I will get a price list.

I often get wood off the beach. Maybe we need to take a road trip. We have had some good winter storms and there should be some great wood out there.

Carl

[cadeochinelo151]

Thanks very good. beautiful

[haydenHD]

Thank you,

[flinkisme]

That was a great turn. I like the size of that bowl. I'm going to start keeping a chainsaw in the car so I can take advantage of the odd downed tree.

[haydenHD]

That's a great idea,

Thanks,

Carl

[Xar0mir]

I know this sound stupid,

but i noticed that we never seen your wax-pot full.

Do they sell them almost empty? :P

[haydenHD]

I just put the wax and oil in a old can.

[newturner32]

Hey Carl, I finally subscribed after watching your videos for a few months now. Your videos have taught me pretty much everything i know about turning. Thank you for taking the time to help people like me become a better turner. The maple burl bowl turned out great!! I would love to get my hands on a peace of wood like that!

[haydenHD]

Thanks, glad to help. Turning is a very enjoyable hobby. Let me know if you have any questions.

Carl

[cornflakesnwater]

nice job carl

[baconsoda]

Lovely work!

Best Wishes, Brendan.

[haydenHD]

Thanks Brendan. Are you getting ready for gardening? What is in the greenhouse this year?

[baconsoda]

@haydenHD I've got the greenhouse under way and have loads of flowers and veg sown. I'll be doing a video soon to show where I'm at.

[mikebeppie1]

were do you get your sandpaper?

[haydenHD]

"klingspor" there on line I use the shop rolls 2" cloth back.

[DougFnDrake]

that wood is just beautiful! where do you get all of your burls at???

[haydenHD]

Most of it off the beach.

[TheDecoyDude]

Awesome work! and really cool piece of wood! When you hot glue the blank to the waste block how do you get it centered? I've tried several times, but when i put it on it always it is off... and wobbles like hell ;) thanks~TheDecoyDude

[DougFnDrake]

@TheDecoyDude im not sure how he does it, but a trick i use it i find the rough center, measure the waste block, and use a compass to make a circle about an 1/8" larger then the waste block, then i just eyeball it, and it usually ends up pretty close

[haydenHD]

Thanks Doug, I didn't see your response yes that is how I do it.

[haydenHD]

If I need it centered I will put a circle with my compass on it to center it. I have never had a piece wobble, make sure the glue is good and hot when you put it on the waste block.

Thanks,

Carl

[srslyusuck]

nice work as always, awesome looking burl there

[olishett]

Nice work.  /Mats

[findingusernamesux11]

Beautiful work Carl!

I just love that maple burls of yours!!! Is that right of the beach?

Thanks! /Nic.

[haydenHD]

Thanks Nic,

Yes this is a piece off the beach.

Carl

[rendimiento100]

beautiful

hope to show you my first job...

[haydenHD]

Thanks, love to see a video or some pictures.

[sellteaathome]

Cool!

[Larenzoid]

Nice burl, Carl. I've got a maple burl blank set to make a clock. I need to get a burl cap, so much more possibilities.

[scoobydog411]

Nice work Carl. Do you toss your sandpaper after each project ? Gary

[haydenHD]

Yes, I don't usually save it.

[TheFishingschool]

is that your son at around 7 min?

[haydenHD]

yes!

[Getsomemhstyle]

Was that green?? Or was it aged?? If so for how long??

[haydenHD]

it's aged probably 3 or 4 years

[woodturningjohn]

Very cool, I seem to get some wobble when I use hot glue. Have you ever had that problem ?

[haydenHD]

It might be from not being flat on the waste block.
