WOW! You got the mother load of magnolia there. Not often people take them down. These prepped blanks look great. They should do well at the shows you take them to. You said 36, but I’m pretty sure you have more than that. Also, it sounds like you’re underpricing your work a bit. The 13” bowls should be closer to $130 +.
Thanks Doug! My father had this tree taken down this past winter. I was fortunate to get my hands on it! I will reassess my pricing! I will just tell them, "Doug said so".
Could you tell me where you got your coring system? I'm fairly new to woodturning and would like to stop wasting the inners of the bowls. I've learned a TON from watching your video's so thank you so much for taking the time to make them.
Thanks Steve! I got my coring system from Amazon. You can get it there or you can buy it straight from One Way. I did buy one knife set from them and the carbide bits. I recommend those for sure. Thanks for watching!
Magnolia? Never crossed my mind, it grows so slow. Gotta be an old 1 for sure. Cant say l knew anyone that ever cut 1. Im sure there are due to a must. Opens a whole new idea.
Hello Mike, I saw your video while I am in the middle of a process where I am coring some cherry logs. What is the point of cooking the bowl blanks?, I have never seen that before. Cheers, Hans Stay safe and keep turning.

Wow, your stamina has really returned. Keep doing whatever it is to stay healthy. Great sets of bowls.
Thanks! I am feeling much better!
What a coincidence. I used my one way coring system for only the second time yesterday and I needed some tips. Now I’ve got them. Thank you 🌞
Perfect! Thanks for watching!
Thats some very interesting grain inside these blanks. Will make some beautiful bowls for sure.
I think they will for sure! I think they should also do well with dye! Thanks for watching!

I had a little of it before. The growth rings can look a little grey in the lighter color of the spring wood. Thanks for watching!

Boiling the wood softens the lignin and allows the bound water to dry better without cracking.
Got it down to a science... I'm going to have to try the boiling thing..be careful and don't bleed out😂
Even the minor scratches bleed like crazy! Thanks for watching!
Does the boiling work for all species of wood?
I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't. Thanks for watching!
Mike, is the boiling for bugs or part of the drying process?
Boiling the bowls softens the lignin and allows the bound water to escape better without cracking.
