Woodturning - Best FOG Wood Ever!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- In this week’s woodturning video, Harry and I and the local community experienced a pretty crazy thunderstorm a few weeks back that had some very high winds.
Later that day after the storms had passed Harry suggested we head out as good Samaritans and help cut up downed trees. I knew immediately Harry just wanted to go get some fresh snacks.
As we drove around the neighborhood, we picked up some oak, magnolia, a large chunk of pine, and other various unknown woods. I decided to drive through a newer subdivision thinking they might have some interesting ornamental trees. As I was passing by houses I spotted a brush pile ahead…..the wood had a very bright wood color. I stopped and stepped out of the truck and Harry leaped into the pile. At that moment the clouds parted and a beam of light fell upon this piece of wood. The quilting was gorgeous! I raced back home with as much of this unknown wood as I could and got to work.
As I began to turn this wood, the amazing ribbons I could get led me to believe that this was Bradford Pear. A wood I’ve never turned but have heard it is fantastic to work with. As Harry would say, that is the dam truth. This has now become one of my favorite woods!
We hope you enjoy the video!

Sometimes FOG makes the best bowls. This one is beautiful.
LOL... whenever you go to slo-mo, I expect the bowl is about to blow up! Thankfully it didn't; it survived and came out beautiful!
I was just about to say the same thing! Whenever a woodturning video switches to slow motion, I've been conditioned to expect a catch / breakthrough / something flying off the lathe!
That slow motion bit gave me so much anxiety! 😂
Fantastic piece, Hodge! Absolutely gorgeous!
Robert, another great piece my friend, well done
That turned out great, Robert! Love that curl!
...'nother beautiful piece...!!!

Bradford pear is a beautiful wood.
Beautiful bowl Robert.
Nicely done, Robert.
I love this piece of art, sorry that you couldn't eat it all Harry it sure looks tasty 😘😘💋💋
I absolutely just love this, thank you for sharing it with us! ❤
Good job, Robert.
Your work is always impress. This is a beautiful design. 😍😍
Bradford pear turns so nicely doesn’t it! You surprised me keeping the broken edge, but I like it. Like the round bottom too. Great job!
Bradford pear wood is darker than this and the bark is different.
Okay, that's fricken crazy!!!
Beautiful piece! Well done! It can be a bit hairy turning winged bowls, like getting close to a moving propeller!
Nice bowl, Robert. Were you trying to psych us out with the slo-mo? Enjoy that Bradford Pear wood while you can. A lot of states are banning new plantings (Ohio incuded).

Another great video. Harry sure likes his wood.
Very nice! Excellent treatment. Love the figure! The bark has some great woodpecker/sapsucker holes, much like some mystery FOG wood that I recently found at the county park.
I'm sorry: what is FOG wood?
@@gerardverzaal4666 Found On Ground wood. Mystery wood.
@@calmwoodcreations3709 OF COURSE!! (Thank you for the insight - good to know.)
It is a truly fantastic tree. Even the shape is perfect👍👍
Beautiful! Thanks 😊
Lovely work - turned out really nice!
It's always impressive how big of a cut you take. I'm always scared to get that aggressive.
Would love to see the finished piece. It seems really thin on the edges. Warping and cracking is that a concern?
So how is that is that piece able to stand on its own?
Woohoo want to see something different check out Richard west woodturing 😲🤤
