@canderso spalting is kind of rotting in the wood

Whats the name of the sealer you use?

I really like your videos. Also the drill bit trick.

Good Video. Just one suggestion about the drying process. Since I can hardy wait six hours to finish a piece, let alone six months, I use an old microwave oven to get the moisture content down. The secret is to use the lowest power setting for 15 minutes at a time then let the piece cool then redo the process over again until the moisture content is about 8-10 percent. I have never had any issues will cracking do to shrinkage.

Your work is wonderful...... Thank you for taking the time to share you technique.

At the time I didn't have much wood to choose from. I was hopeing the bark would stick but.... . Normaly I would have used a log from a recently downed tree. Before the bark starts to seperate from the log. And maybe something other than maple. Ash,walnut,elm,pear,cherry,mul
berry all work well. -
Great videos!

Just the sound of the wood being removed makes me want to get back into the workshop!! I can feel the warmth of the woodshavings on the back of my hand. ahhhh!

I always wondered what "spalting" was. JT never explained. Thanks for the info.

Why doesn't he leave the bark on? That is such a beautiful effect. I have seen a Norwegian wood-turner who made lots of bowls like that, and they looked fantastic.
The grain in that piece is gorgeous!

You may recall that in Part 1 JT comments that the bark is already starting to chip off. He ordinarily leaves it on with a spectacular effect.

Ahhh yes. But I thought he put that piece to dry and then this was another, similar piece. My bad! Hehe!

Sorry, it's been the same blank throughout. It's still a wonderful bowl finished.
canderso 5 years ago
Yes - as I say, the grain in that piece is fantastic. I almost wish I could get hold of one of his bowls with bark on to give to my father-in-law, who loves to see good woodwork of every sort.

You can Google JT Dunphy or I can try to get his website to you. I've noticed that "comments" don't seem to allow the inclusion of links. JT is located in Mount Vernon Ohio USA
