One Of My Very Best! - Wood Turning

- I had trouble figuring out which way to turn this piece but once I got it, it was pretty clear to me. It's rare for me to have an idea for a shape in mind and then to be able to achieve that shape but it worked this time! It became a very natural pedestal bowl and I think this is one of my best turnings ever.
Maple burl, finished in shellac.

It was a cut-off piece that I didn't know what to do with, so I sent it to Phil because everyone knows that Phil will turn ANYTHING! And, oh man, did he ever! Stunning piece, Phil. Absolutely stunning!
Thank you for the info and great comment, Dave! OH, and for the WOOD! 😊
I have to agree! Phil will take a crack at anything you give him!
I love that he takes this as a personal challenge to make art with anything you throw at him.
Thanks for sending him this lovely piece!
@@christinemiller7238 You are welcome! I am not sure, now, if I *sent* it to him or if I *handed* it to him when he visited. It's been awhile and my memory is what I forget with. 😉
A big round of applause for Phil and his magic hands!!! Once again another amazing work of art. Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks! 😊
I say amazingly beautiful, you have such talent!
Dr Phil, any tool you create to save you from those knuckle busters is a blessing to us all. Thanks! ♥️🇺🇲
😊
Phil, you are truly the Michelangelo of wood. Your ability to both retain and reveal beauty is rare.
As an artist myself, it’s honestly moving and humbling to watch.
“The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material.”
― Michelangelo
And, yeah, ol' Mikey was right! 😊
This proves it, you CAN put a square peg on a round bowl!
You do such a good job showing us the art of restraint, no one can make texture the way a tree does it on its own.
😊
We love it because you are a real artist…you don’t force it to be something…you allow it to be … “creativity is intelligence having fun” …Albert Einstein
Love the quote, Wendy, thank you! 😊
Phil your ability to visualize and bring to life incredibly beautiful pieces is inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
I'm so glad, thank you! 😊
lol, love it. ...."everyone knows Phil will turn ANYTHING.". Keep 'em coming!
I'll pretty much TRY turning anything, Steve, at least once! LOL! Thank you! 😊
You are retired; what did you do before your "woodturning career"?
I'm retired and I'm glad that you're expanding your horizons with the woodturning and the posting. It's a GREAT example for others to follow.
Thanks for being an EXAMPLE of what a person can do AFTER retirement!
I retired from Public Service nine years ago, Carol. You are correct, you must have something to do after retirement and I stumbled on to this channel. It what gets me out of bed every day! 😊
Phil so entertaining. Your vision was spot on 👀. Turning skills were perfect 🤩. The finish is a credit to you being number 1 👏
Wow, thank you, David! 😊
🐼 Big Bear Hugs from a 67 yr old grandma in Kirby, Texas, USA 🐼....
😊
God certainly bestowed you with the magical gift of being able to see the wonders that you can see in each piece of wood.
Yes, this is one of your best!!
I'm glad you like it, Colleen, thank you! 😊
Phil...you say "I don't about this one" so many times, I don't pay attention to it anymore! This one is a prize! I don't know why but I'm always surprised by how pretty the finished creations look. No one does a better job of working WITH the wood and allowing it to keep its' voice. This one is singing pretty! Thanks to Calmwood Creations for letting Phil perform his magic on kind of a clunker looking piece of wood!
Well, sorry, Max! I'm confronted with some strange looking pieces, it seems. LOL! I'm so glad you took your time to watch and comment, thank you! 😊
Please
Your definitely right here. I don’t believe it either. What I do believe is once the piece of wood is in his hands it does turn up to be a special one ☝️you wish to replicate one day.
As Don Adams suggested, I think I'm going to send you all of my puzzling pieces, the ones I've been staring at for months with no idea how to start spinning them. OR, I can just drill a 5/16 hole into them and say: "What would Phil do?" and see what happens. Thanks, Phil! It's an uniquely beautiful piece!
I recommend drill the hole and see what happens, Paul! 😊
Gorgeous one of a kind! I so appreciate your love of the natural beauty in the wood, ALL of it! Not flaws, character! God bless
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
Phenomenal! I'm a start calling you Phenomenal Phil! Lol I think what I like best about watching you is you are not confined to any box... and that is one of my main goals as well.
Cool, thanks! 😊
Great work on this. I think one of the greatest parts though is seeing how the woodturning community comes together on TH-cam to elevate each other. The fact that through this platform so many people make friends that will send turning blanks like this off to others is amazing. I'm inspired more and more each time I open TH-cam to try new projects and get others into this incredible hobby and your channel is one of my favorites.
Thank you, Moose!
Thank You Phil, Thank You Dave, Calmwood Creations.... Very few woods come close to the beauty of a polished/finished piece of Maple Burl. Include with that burl the bark and the natural contours of the wood. Does not get much better. Phil you made a beauty! It is small, simple and beautiful with all of the bells & whistles it takes to create a unique piece. Too cool Phil & wonderful show from start to stop. TM
Thank you, Tuffy! You are the star of next weeks show. Wouldn't have been able to turn the piece if not for your imagination and skill. I'm editing it now. 😊
Dr Phil, the live edge looks like a hedgehog! Bring him to life! 👍🏻🇺🇲
😊
I'm glad you went for a bowl rather than a vase. It came out beautifully. I always look forward to your videos, and I love your commentary and explaining why you chose to do something a particular way. Keep up the good work.
😊
Phil, the Master of ugly to absolutely gorgeous when finished.
Another stunning piece Phil.
Thanks a lot, Carl!
You really are the “wood whisperer!” You seem to be able to coax something wonderful out of the most challenging pieces of wood. It’s amazing how you see things in the wood that most people would just burn or throw away.
Thank you so much, Lynne! 😊
Hi Phil
You have the likes of a doctors bedside manner gentle touch no white knuckle stuff a real life wood surgeon.
Another lovely creation turned to perfection.
Regards from NZ
Thank you so much, Mal! Sure would like to visit NZ!
Now that’s a challenge. Beautiful. I love how you waited until the piece presented itself to show you how you wanted to attempt this. An extreme challenge to be sure. Well done my friend, well done. ❤ 👍👍👍
Thank you so much, Steve! 😊
I would have to agree Phil , this a real beautiful piece for sure !
Thank you, Jon! 😊
Once again Phil you hit that one out of the park. I also wanted to say that your eye for seeing the finished piece before you turn it really gives me confidence in turning more difficult pieces myself. Although I feel like I'm still learning every day but as my late grandfather used to say. If you learn one thing a day it's a day not waisted. Happy turning Phil! 😊
Your grandfather was correct, of course, Edward. Also, every cut is a practice cut. I'm still practicing and learning, too! 😊
That masterpiece, belongs in the Smithsonian museum!!
Wow, thank you, Ron! 😊
Well, Phil can actually donate one piece someday. Smithsonian can keep it for a display on crafts from time to time with credit to Phil or present it as a gift to some worthy or sell it for fundraising in the gift shop to somebody who will treasure it. Either outcome is a benefit..
I never noticed this before, but that piece looks like a hunk of meteorite on a plinth! Totally awesome!
😊
It's amazing what you can get out of a price if wood others would burn or throw away
Your videos have been inspiring me to do the same
I get surprised every time
Thanks
Fantastic, Marc! 😊
A lesson in making ART from the master himself, Phil Anderson!
😊
This beautiful burl wood is a perfect Dr Phil creation. ♥️🇺🇲
😊
Thank God for the wonderful resources He gave us and for people who trust you to use your God given talent to bring out the beauty. Love it👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😊
Watching you deal with this difficult conundrum was like listening to Miles Davis make a masterpiece from his 80's jazz bands less experienced musicians. They were rough around the edges, however Miles heard what they did and masterfully brought a melody to its beautiful conclusion. Just like you did Phil.
😊
I appreciate how you always take the time to analyze the wood, and highlight the unique features.
Thank you so much for that! 😊
Here you go again you turned a sows ear into a silk purse. A BEAUTIFUL piece. You made the right decisions at every turn. If you don't want it any more, I will be happy to take it off your hands. It would be the talk of the town when all my friends see it on MY dinning table and start a big fight who will get to take it home. FAT CHANCE of that happening!!!! Put in your trophy case along with all your award winning turnings. 😉❤ KEEP ON TUIRNING
Thank you so much, Howard! 😃
Phil is THE Bowlmeister! 👍👏👏👏
He tries, Roy! 😊
Phil you are the only turner that anyone should trust with a piece of wood. Another piece of Art. Your new name should be *THE CHISEL ARTIST*
😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Phil where can I buy one of your pieces
This one has to be one of my favorites, spectacular work as always
😊
I’m exhausted helping you with this piece! But what a great bowl this turned out to be! I especially like the base. Thanks again, Phil. Barbara
Haha, time for a nap, Barbara! I'm glad you like this one, thank you! 😊
When ever I need some inspiration for something a little different I pull up Phil’s channel. Thanks for what you do
I appreciate that, Chris! 😃
Totally amazing, Phil. Totally amazing! You certainly thought this one out to come up with something so beautiful, my friend. Great exhibition of your talents, sir! Three thumbs up! 😃😃😃
Three thumbs, Gord? Never mind, I don't want to know! 😊
Thanks, buddy, have a great weekend!
👍👍👍
"I don't get up early, I'm retired!" You are my role model.
LOL! You have low standards, Robert! 😊
WOW! This is gorgeous! You made some wonderful decisions on that bowl.
Cool, thank you! 😊
Phil I never would have believed such a nice piece could come out of that chunk of wood. Wow, what a stunning piece.
Thank you, Dan! 😃
No question Phil this is by far one of your best. What a perfect piece of wood to have the honor of meeting you and have your touch change it into what it should be. All without changing what it was. You thought your way through and did an amazing job on it. The grain is wonderful but I am with you on the natural sculptured area. That really sets if off as a genuine piece of art.
Well done buddy!
Gary
You are too kind, Gary! I appreciate you taking your time to watch and comment, buddy, it means a lot to me! Let's face it, hard to go wrong with a Maple burl! 😊
“It’s a nice piece” says Phil, the master of the understatement. The camera placement, the commentary (“it’s not for your Cheerios, it’s an art piece”), the building excitement as the shape is revealed, like a sculptor with a block of marble. This was not only your best piece. It was like a feature film! Well done!!!
Wow, not much I can say to that, Rick except thank you! 😊
Woodturning: It's like doodling with an eraser!
Wow. I hope that becomes a family heirloom handed down. Very very awesome piece.
Thank you so much, Wayne! 😊
Amazing...what you see in these pieces of wood!! So much fun to watch. And...your quirky personality is a plus.
LOL! Quirky are us! 😊
I didn’t know what you were going to do with that piece considering all the square sides. It turned out beautiful. You can send it to me for my birthday and I would be proud to display a truly awesome work of art.
😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop beautiful as always, love watching you figuring it out & making. This truly was a big surprise!
The most beautiful things come from a mess.
I think that may be true, Edward.
Thank you, I didn’t know you knew me!😘
@@lindabahlmann9442 LOL!
This is the best one you have created by far, Mr. Phil you are amazing.
😊
You are correct Phil that is one of the most beautiful pieces I have watched you turn.
As a matter of fact I think it is a cool as the other side of your pillow.
Heehee, I love that phrase, Doreen! 😊
It’s always a pleasure to watch and listen to you having fun
You make me feel good, Wile, thanks! 😊
An absolutely darling piece 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
😊
Never seen a pedestal bowl that I liked, until now! Great job
😊
It sure is one of your very best. I love the way the live edge looks all melty. Thank you to Dave for sending and you for sharing and see you soon.
😊
An art piece, huh? Just promise us that have no plans to cut off your ear there Van Gogh. It took a while before I could see your vision, but you nailed it. Truly beautiful. Great work and once again, thank you for sharing it with us.
Deal! No ear removal on my end, Pete! 😊
Maple is a very hard wood! I’m thinking we need a “How Phil Anderson sharpens his tools” video!
We have one of those, Sam. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/PUGFEgJTogA/w-d-xo.html
You can see the best in every piece of wood.
Thank you, I'm glad you think so! 😊
Absolutely stunning. It amazes me how someone can take a gnarly chunk of wood and create something like that. I wish I had that kind of imagination and talent.
Practice, practice, practice, Kim! 😊
CRAZY is GOOD Phil, most Artists in Wood or whatever are Crazy that's why we do what we do
😊
Another amazingly beautiful bowl Phil!
You make some of the most stunning pieces I've ever seen. Thank you again for sharing. ❤🙃
Thank you, Dotty! 😊
Hi Phil you never cease to amaze me with what you do with a piece of wood that doesn’t show a shape before you start and end up with this. I wish I had 1/2 of your vision. 👍👍👍
Many thanks, Steve! 😊
That's a wonderful bit of art! I'm especially impressed by your "vision" to see that shape in there. At the beginning of the video, I thought you were wasting your time on a worthless piece. Well done Phil!!
Thank you, Geoff! 😊
Agreed, Uncle Phil; you've done it again! A very unique bowl.👍
😊
I had no clue where this was going. Absolutely stunning.
Thank you, Kathleen! 😃
Wow! another beautiful piece. You always find the natural beauty within. Thank you so much!
So nice of you, Julie, thank you! 😊
How you get something so beautiful out of the block you started with is truly amazing!
Practice, Cindy! 😊
A big well done Phil, you studied the piece of wood envisioned what it could be and proceeded to make it a reality, certainly one of your best.
I think that's why I particularly like this one, Lewis. I seldom have a hand in the design of a piece and when I do, I often screw it up. This one worked out so I feel special! LOL!
I love making these 'fugly' pieces. Yours here is beautiful. Most people's comments vary from "Beautiful" to "Did you rescue it from a fire??" Hahah!
😊
Beautiful work Phil. I could hold that and stare at it forever. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Never have I screamed at my screen to turn off the lathe and please just use the chisel. Until now. Thank you for doing it this time, always a downright thriller. I would not trust myself, the tool or the machine enough to cut tenons all the way like you do. Thanks for the great demonstration of skill, wit and impeccable taste!
I'm the first to use this technique. The first time I was just trying to get the nub as small as possible with the intention to set it on my bench and cut it off with a chisel. Then I realized what I was doing, how small it was getting and wondered "what would happen if I just keep going?" It was clear that if I was careful and held the bevel of the chisel against the bottom of the bowl, nothing bad would happen and it didn't! That was almost six years ago and I've been doing it this way ever since. I've never been sorry about it and I've never made a major mistake with it. Once in awhile if the nub breaks half-way, I will stop and finish on the bench. No point in taking chances! 😊
Super Duper Phil. Another piece to admire and love. As always love everything about it. Cool beans! 💗
My daughter says "cool beans" Marge! I missed that phrase when I was growing up. 😊
I love the pedestal too and how the bowl spills into it. Glad you saved that piece and the live edge rim. So cool!
😊
Another BEAUTY in the books......
😊
As always great work. Watching your videos sure beats watching tv. Lots of inspiration there. Thanks for such great entertainment .
Awesome! Thank you, Charles! 😊
Wow that's Gorgeous enjoyed watching you create this awesomely beautiful piece of Art great job Phil

Wow, thanks, Mark!
It IS one of you best!! I just love how you let the wood tell the story.
Glad you enjoyed it, Chrissy, thanks! 😊
Fantastic ! I couldn't stop seeing two pieces almost like a bowl on a stand but as usual just another great job.
Thank you very much, Barry! 😊
Wow - what a beauty. Thank you for sharing. Love, peace and justice.
😊
Stunning piece really changes how I look at those misshapen lumps I have. Thanks for the inspiration
Excellent, now get to turning them, John! 😊
and here I thought only New Englanders' said "wicked"! 🤣😂🤣 Beautiful bowl with sweet live edge.
Haha, thank you, Jessi!
It looks like it is made of marble rather than wood. I love it! Love the wood grain.
I think so too! 😊
Beautiful piece Phil. It has a sort of an enigma about it. It draws you in, you want to touch it, turn it around etc. Well done.
I'm glad you can see that, Kevin, thank you!
Love your sense of humor.
Good to know, Jim, thank you! 😊
Way to go PJil. ANother fine creation. Exciting to watch. See you next week.
Thanks a lot, Ron, see you soon! 😊
As usual another very awesome piece. I like to watch and see what you see in a piece of wood. Thank you for sharing your video and what you see in the piece.
I'm glad you enjoy the process, Mark, thank you!
Another winner, Phil. You do such great work. So happy you are willing and able to share via vedio. Thank you.
😊
That is absolutely fantastic I thought you were losing it you won brilliant
Glad you like it, thanks! 😊
This is my new favourite Phil
Yay! Thanks, Warren! 😊
I continue to marvel at your artistry and craftsmanship.
You are too kind, thank you! 😊
A fabulous piece of turning; I really did enjoy this video. What a spectacular outcome.
😊
Thank you. I've watched several wood turning videos, but learned more from yours. Just starting to learn how to do this.
😀
Beautiful! As Jayne Cobb (character in Firefly) would say, I’ll be in my bunk. That is stunning.
And don’t worry about going crazy. In the immortal words of Jimmy Buffett, if we weren’t crazy we’d go insane.
😊
Hey Phil, I love it. Thanks for leaving the natural beauty.
I'm so glad, Jean, thank you! 😊
Definitley my favourite piece so far. Love it.
Thank you, Matt! 😊
