Hi Phil, Sorry for being late to the show watching this video but been away on holiday. You title says "My Most Unusual", I would like to say in my opinion its not your most unusual but its your best ever bowl. It is certainly my favourite of the ones I've watched you turn and as I write this I can't actually think of any other bowl I've seen turned by the other people I follow that can beat it. The character in the root ball is just outstanding and it took a master of his craft to bring that out. Take care Phil. Cheers, Huw
Wow, this is quite a comment, Huw, and believe me, I appreciate it more than you might know! We agree, I'm sure, it's the piece of wood I started with that makes this a truly unique and beautiful piece. The problem is, where do I go from here but down! LOL!
Thank you so much, Huw, and welcome back!
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Hi Phil, Just showed the bowl to my wife Jane, and she agrees with me that this bowl is one spectacular piece of turning. I'm sure you'll find something that will take it to an even higher level. Take care my friend. Huw
I agree whole-heartedly. This was breath-taking. I'm at a loss for words how gorgeous this turned out.
@@adulthumanfemale8666 Thank you, glad you like it!

Stumbled across a video I hadn’t noticed before. All I can say is I’m so pleased to have found it. This rose root ball is stunning, and I know will always bring you some little solace after the passing of your wife. Wood has such special qualities as you know. It holds memories. I still own a piece of driftwood that my late husband had owned for decades. It is always within my eye line, no matter how often I have moved home, it comes too. I know you will have had much pleasure from looking and holding this piece, as well as moments of sadness. Hold onto it, talk to it (it’s not as nutty as it sounds), and leave your worries and concerns with it. It is will lighten the load. Thank you for posting this and for allowing me to watch the transformation from a ball of confusion to a bowl of delight. X
Thank you, Anita. This piece as you know, is very special to me.
Your love for your craft is so evident in the time and care you put into each piece. That’s what makes your videos so special. This is truly a masterpiece. I really love this bowl.
Thank you, it's a favorite of mine, too! 😊
What a truly beautiful piece. And such a piece to honor the love of your life. Ron and I watched with wonder. If you look at your finished piece of art we found at least 4 hearts and a half of one. It was your love coming through Phil. I understand the pain after loosing my first husband to cancer after a strong hard fight and Ron does also. He lost his first wife when he came home and found her on the floor. She had already gone Home. Look often at that piece and remember how gentle and loving your wife was while here on Earth and know you will meet again some day.. please stay safe our new friend.
😊
Yes! Your work, the work of your human hands, is AMAZING!
Thank You, Phil.
Wow, thank you, Tuan! 😊
Absolutely beautiful
Sorry for your loss. This Rose bowl will be cherished for sure. 💜🌸 🌹
Thank you, Liesel. 😊
Phil: This is one beautiful bowl. I really enjoyed watching you turn this piece from start to finish. You have such great knowledge of when to stop turning. Thank You. Really appreciate your time
😊
The goosebumps are lasting a long time as I look at this absolutely unique tribute from your art to the memory of your wife. It could not be improved upon in any way. Your love for what nature creates, your appreciation shows in everything you do. A memory bowl for sure. Yours and all of us who journey with you, cherish you. Phil, you never will walk alone. Joanne
Such kind words, Joanne. Thank you so much, you've made my day!
Phil
❤️❣️❤️. I’m sorry for your loss. That rose root ball is magnificent and makes for a wonderful memory piece in tribute to you wife. I love your work and videos. Take care.
Thank you, Barbara! 😊
Good evening, Phil.
Thinking of you tonight. Thank you for sharing and the lovely bowl.
Peace be with you.
Good morning, Ray! Thank you, I appreciate the thoughts! 😊
Hey Phil, I am so sorry. My condolences. That piece may be the best one you ever did. It is just so very beautiful. I am sure your wife would be extremely proud. Yall have a wonderful day.
😊
Best ROSE BOWL I’ve ever seen ! 👍🎄
Hi Phil, sorry for your loss. My wife also passed a few years ago. I stumbled unto your channel and I can't leave! Beautiful work! I'm inspired seeing you transform ugly into beauty! Again, keep up the great work!
Thank you very much, Ron. The passing of a wife is a hard thing to move on from. I miss her every day. I'm sure you know what I mean. I'm so glad you are enjoying my videos and took time to let me know!
Phil
Wonderful piece with a lot of nostalgia and great tribute to your late wife my condolences Phil
Thank you, Jeff! 😃
Hi Phil first of all I am sorry for your lost Me and my wife lost our son he was 29 ten years ago on dec 20th I still have a very hard time but I've always God in my life without God my Lord or our lord I would not be able to go on and I know you our a man of faith and you will go through it we have no choice! God Bless you! But this piece is amazing another great video inspiring
I watched your patience and care as you artfully removed all that was not bowl. Then you gave us the reason for your approach and I must say the entire show coalesced in love, thank you for sharing.
Wow, thank you, Michael!
“Fearless Phil” strikes again!! 👍👍👌👌👏👏
Haha, thanks, Roy! 😊
Phil, I believe God gives each of us a special ability and you've found yours!!! The way you work at turning difficult pieces of wood that others wouldn't touch is just amazing. The rose is a beautiful flower and you turned the rose root ball into a magnificent work of art. ♥️😊
It's a favorite, Mary, I'm glad you like it, too! 😊
I’ve only very recently found your channel because I was looking at wood carving videos. My partner died on Jan 2nd 2020 but prior to this we had discussed doing whittling together. He had been a very successful ice sculptor so this would have been a relatively easy move for him. So 7 months after his death I bought some knives & chisels & have been trying to whittle. I find watching your turning quite relaxing & love to see the end results. Beautiful! I was sad to hear of your wife’s passing but was impressed to see you back on your channel so soon. I can’t say I’m doing as well as you. All the best. Look forward to many more videos.
Thank you, Sarah, for watching and commenting. It's great that you are carrying on your joint passion. For me, it has been 14 months, tomorrow. I think I can safely say the feeling of loss will never pass. You have my sympathy. I'm only glad I have this channel and my great viewers to keep my mind occupied.
I am amazed that the rose root ball bowl is magnificent! Phil, you are a master at your craft. The work you do is always my favorite. Thank you again for sharing. ❤ 🙃
Thank you, Dotty! 😊 Cheers!
Absolutely perfect! Soooo sorry for the loss of your dear wife. ❤️ Wood turning is very cathartic, God bless 🙏. 🇬🇧
😊
I loved the turning and love your work. I was sorry to hear about your wife. You have my condolences and you will be in my prayers. Stay strong my new friend.
Thank you kindly, Greg.
I’m so sorry about your wife! Many virtual hugs! She is smiling down on you
Every day. Thank you, Tina! 😊
Hello Phil. Lar from 🇨🇦 here. I cant believe I missed this video. This has got to be the most SPECTACULAR piece I’ve ever seen, and it was created by my friend at Shady Acres.WOW.
When I first seen the piece I thought 💭.Come on Phil, even you can not make anything out of this , BUT WAS I WRONG.
You made a purse out of a sows ear my friend. It shows your skill and patience to work with such a difficult piece. I hope this one sits front and centre on your display shelf.
The ending of the video was very moving for me. The story brought a tear to my eyes.
How are you doing Phil? I hope you are healing from such a horrific loss. Just know that this viewer cares .
I really appreciate your fine, kind comment, Lar. Yes, this piece will forever hold a place in my heart. Thank you!
Hey Phil, I am just seeing this video from several years ago. I have been working on a huge piece of oak burl wood. It's heavy, wonky, with 2 deep cavities so I could only go so far before I ruined it. So, like you, I made the decision to stop. I was tempted to use some epoxy to fill some of the cavities but my husband keeps whispering to me that he loves it natural, so I decided to leave it as it is. Your video touched my heart over the loss of your wife. That beautiful piece you made from a rose root was a fitting memorial for your bride. Thank you for everything you do. 💗
Thank you, Kim! Listen to your husband! LOL! Well, he's bound to be right some of the time! 😃
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Like a broken clock, he's right at least twice a day! Lol. 😁
Keep doing what you do Phil, so terribly sorry to hear of your wife’s passing. Stay strong young fella.
Thank you for your supportive words and for taking your time to watch, Russ, I really appreciate it!
Phil
As you said: amazing! I'm sorry for your loss. Stay strong, Phil. I lost mine quite a while ago.
😊
I don't usually comment much, just sub and like, but I know what it's like when an object takes on an emotional significance. I think the bowl is beautiful and love the videos.
Thank you for coming out of the shadows for a moment and favoring me with your very kind words, Rainy. Truly appreciated!
Phil
That’s the most amazing bowl and I love it! This is a very special project and God bless you for having taken it on at such a stressful time for you. I hope you keep it and realize it, maybe, helped you in some way. Barbara
Thank you so much, Barbara! I will never part with it, it does mean a lot to me.
So sorry for the loss of your wife, I know the feeling. Beautiful rose wood Pice , love your work!
Thank you, Dewayne. 😊
Hey Phil, I had to revisit this video. That is a very proud piece. I hope all's well in your world.
Thanks again,
Tommy
This one is very special to me, Tommy, I'm glad you like it, too! 😊
Each one I watch I think this is the best yet…then I watch another. This is amazing!
Wow, so kind of you, Barb, thank you so much for spending some of your time with me! 😊
Ever pondered whether Tuffy might be trying to kill you by sending along these challenging pieces? LOL! A beautiful natural sculpture from an uprooted rose bush. Cheers!
Yes, Tuffy and I have discussed that and he assures me he just has confidence in me. Of course, that's just what he says, who knows how he really thinks? LOL!
Hi Phil, new to the channel and have enjoyed watching your videos. Sorry to hear of your wife's passing, mine passed a few years ago. May the good Lord watch over her, and ease you through the hard times... God Bless...
Thank you for your kind, thoughtful words, nomdegure.
Phil
Hi Phil, I am going through your backdated videos on TH-cam and think this is a really nice piece, the finish is just beautiful! Belated condolences.
Thank you, Malcolm! 😊
That takes a lot of patience and sharpening. Beautiful. ❤ 👍👍👍
It does! 😊
Dear Phil ,
I just saw this video today ! It
Brings a painful time for me also ! My Wife passed away on
The 9 th of January of this year.
It was just 3 months shy of our 46 th anniversary. Her birthday was 2 days ago , I have had a terrible time trying to get my life together again and I am not sure when that may happen , if
It ever does . My wood turning has helped me to distract my mind at times . So I can do totally understand how you feel
In a small way ! I enjoy your videos very much and have given me much inspiration to go further than I have in a long time . Please keep turning, as
I am going to try !
Take Care and Be Safe
My condolences, Larry. I don't think missing your wife will ever pass. Still, life goes on for you. I would have to say that my turning, my channel and my viewers are very important to me and they are the very reason I get out of bed each day. Do what you love! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop
Thank you very much , Phil.
Lately that is what gets me going everyday ! Right now , for
Almost 4 weeks , I have been turning Christmas presents for my Grandchildren and my daughter and Son-in-law !
My daughter has raised them to
Be Craft minded and it has payed off for the better !
Not having technology involved ! My Friend please
Take Care and Be Safe
Holy freaking cow! Oh my goodness! Lovely and unique.
Cool, thanks, Audie! 😊
That Rose rootball is fantastic!! Very beautiful!!
One of my favorites, Roger, thank you! 😊
Unusual is putting it mildly. That had me right there with you. I could feel every pulse of the chisel as it passed over all those voids.Well worth doing and turned out fantastic. The bowl is not too thick at all because you left the features on the outside and the inside that are what makes the bowl. So the wall is what it is.
When I first saw you showing the root ball I saw a dungeness crab. I suppose because I just got back an hour ago from 3 days at Beverly Beach which is just south of Depoe Bay Oregon and I had crabs on my mind.
Special thanks to tuffy for his thoughtful gift.
Another great job Phil,
Gary
Thank you, my friend! A piece like this does not come by very often, like never.
I think we have been to Beverly Beach, certainly to Depoe Bay. Wonderful area, great memories. Crabs are always on my mind! There is a casino up here that has Seafood night on Fridays and Saturdays. King crab legs, all you can eat and they don't limit it in any way. People (me) just load their plates up with piles of crab legs. Oh, man, now I'm getting hungry!
Yes, I owe Tuffy a lot for sending this once in a lifetime piece to me.
Phil
Phil I may have to dig up all the plants in the yard to get the root balls. I wonder if they will keep growing if I replant them without the root balls.
Never mind bad 💡
@@ThePapa1947 HA! Yeah probably not a good idea, Gary! LOL!
What a beautiful job Phil. Such a gnarly root transformed into such a unique piece. Wish somebody would send me a chunk of something special like that. Sorry to hear about your wife. Bruce/ Ontario, Canada
So sorry to hear about your wife; your enthusiasm for your craft is a joy to me.
Thank you, John.
You really know how to read a root ball, Phil.
I'm writing this while listening to the end of the video. I'm so sorry for your loss. I think I can speak for all of your subscribers when I say you & yours will be on our prayers.......Jim
Glossy and chunky but tasteful at the same time hard to turn so well done for putting the time in, a piece to treasure.
It is a treasure to me, Lewis, I'm glad you like it, too! 😊
The rose bowl came out very well! Am so sorry for your loss!
Thank you very much, Linda!
Beautiful bowl. So sorry for your loss, your wife would be proud of what you made!!
Thank you, Mario! Yes, this would have been one of her favorites.
Phil
Breath taking piece of art....wonderful job. Great find by the sender. Sharing the BEAUTY of Nature!!!
Ken

Wow, thank you, Ken, I'm so glad you like it! I do too. And, yes, Tuffy really came through with this piece of wood.
Phil
I think the thick round sides is what makes the bowl so beautiful.
Thank you, Tammy! 😊
Thank you Phil! Such a gorgeous piece! So sorry to hear about your loss!
Thank you for your very kind words, Gary, I appreciate your time watching and commenting.
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop It was a blessing for me to watch the video and hear your teaching and personal comments. People like you are the reason I watch videos. I take so much from it with the art and the life lessons.
After watching dozens of wood turning videos, I was becoming a tad bored with the monotony. Then along comes Phil and this magnificient piece. I'm almost in tears at the beauty of it. Seriously.
I really appreciate you kind comment, Houston. Thank you very much!
Phil
M.anderson you are a very very good artist with what you do with this piece of wood
Nice to finally put a face to the voice . Lol. Absolutely beautiful bowl
Glad you like it 😊
I can't believe how good that looks.
It's a favorite of mine, too! 😊
Looks awesome, and a beautiful tribute to your beloved. God bless you.
Thank you, David!
That is a very gorgeous piece of work. This showed to be one of your older videos but I’m sure glad it came through. It’s just beautiful. I heard what you said about your wife. I know is way late but I’m sorry to hear about your loss.
Thank you, Lynda. This is a very special piece for me, I'm glad you like it, too! 😊
The beauty you have helped release in this piece is utterly breath taking Phil. As I looked & watched I don't think anyone & I mean Anyone, would have made better decisions & to be privy to your thoughts as you talked them through was outstanding my friend. Superb 'work' from a Master of his Craft. If you never 'beat' this piece in the future, I am absolutely sure that you will equal it & many times over at that. Long may you continue to turn.
Thank you, Don, for putting a smile on my face this morning as I read through comments! 😊
That is gorgeous. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thank you very much, Todd! 😊
Certainly agree with you it is an amazing piece. So very sorry for your loss sir.
Thank you, Vaughn!
Thank you Phil for sharing your life with us, so sorry to hear about your wife. You must really miss her, I sense that you were very close to her. Forgive me for being so obvious, but when someone that close leaves this world they take a part of you with them. Take care Phil, keep on turning!
It's all true, Mark, thank you.
Some of the incredible voids and fissures in this rootball are deep and wide so keeping the walls think was a wise decision because that accentuates those features. You certainly made a beautiful swan from something that started as an ugly duckling for sure. I'm sure you would say that the swan was there all along and you just encouraged it to grow out of the duckling.
I only recently discovered your channel and subscribed so I'm catching up slowly on older videos like this one. I was saddened to hear you tell of your wife's passing - my sincere condolences Phil. You must miss her.
Thank you so much, Stevan! Yes, this piece has a special place in my heart.
Am so sorry for your loss, loved ones leaving us is so so hard.
Take care X
My condolences on your loss. Great turning.
Thank you very much, Keith!
Phil
Crazy cracked bowl. It is gorgeous fun piece. I'm so glad you respect the wood you work on.
It's all about the wood, Judith! 😊
Very beautiful peaceful reminder of your beautiful Wife..
Thank you, Donna! 😊
mother nature is awesome and you did her proud phil
Thank you so much, Wayne!
Phil
Wow that truly is a work of art. You really are a talented guy Phil. Inspirational. Please don’t ever give up. Jules . Droitwich, England.
Thank you, Julian! You're picked up my spirits this morning with your kind words.
Phil
Lovely work, you turn so much air ,I believe that can be very tricky and potentially dangerous
I love the way you just let the wood tell you how it wants to be.
I tend to watch wood turning when I need to relax in stressful times, and you are so no nonsense and can do. I shall work my way through the videos.thank you for sharing,
Thank you so much, Debra! I appreciate you spending some time with me and for taking the effort to comment! 😊
I love it. Absolutely gorgeous.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much, J'Lyssa!! It is one of my favorites. 😊
New to watching and trying out turning myself. That is an amazing bowl. Very special piece you did. Thanks for sharing your work. Very inspirational.
Welcome aboard, Alex, it's a great hobby! 😊
Gorgeous! Thanks for showing us.
Thank you for watching and commenting, Deanna, I appreciate that very much!
Phil
Great decisions. And that root bowl is a masterpiece. I think a solid sphere might have been good as well. Love it.
I'm really glad you like it, Keith, it's definitely a favorite of mine. Thank you so much!
Looks like a life form! Amazing, something you can have in your hands and by feel, connect with Mother Nature in a deeply special way. It is not a bowl. It is an experience. When you shared the connection with your wife’s passing, it was so much a monument between you, her, creation. I am honored to have taken the trip with you.
Some folks have said it looks like a human heart, Joanne. I feel much like you do about this piece. It really does help to connect with Mother Nature. This will always be a special piece to me.
I'm honored you would take your time to watch and leave such a great, heartfelt comment. Thank you very much!
Phil
All I can say is WOW!! Halfway through your video my neighbor showed up with a honeysuckle root. Hope I can make it somewhat like yours.
Hey, now, we have Honeysuckle growing here, too! I'll have to have a look! Thanks, Garth!

Very nice piece Phil. Very sorry to hear of your loss.
😊
Such a grand bowl. ❤
Thanks, Marcia! 😊
That piece is just wicked crazy cool! My condolences on the lose of your wife Phil! I look forward to watching at least one video of yours a night! One day I hope to catch up. I have a Cherry crotch log and a small Black Walnut crotch I'm taking up to Dad's house and hoping to turn it while there for a couple days! Going to try and video it if I can but it's a small basement shop. I'll see how it goes.
I did my first 2-3 videos with my cell phone taped to a lamp I had hanging over my lathe. It worked! Good luck, Hotrod!
So BEAUTIFUL, I LOVE ALL THE INTERESTING PARTS OF IT. YOU DID A WONDERFUL JOB
Thank you, Jane, I love this piece, too! 😊
Absolutely stunning...and with that crack in it, it's like a natural yarn bowl! Beautiful 😍
Wow, thank you, Ruth! This is one of my favorites, too!
You can bet your bootie this is a real special and beautiful bowl.
What a wonderful primer on how to turn a really difficult piece of wood! That root ball is something I would probably never have attempted, but you made something beautiful out of it and made it look pretty easy. I really enjoy your videos and am learning things as well. Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful to read your words this morning, Bob! They really start my day off on the right foot, thank you so much!
Phil
Love, love, love!
😊
Well done, Phil! When in doubt, wrap with painter’s tape, or cling wrap (or pallet wrap). You can still turn through either of them as needed. I miss the Madrona name. It was nice and unique!
Thank you, Valerie! You miss the name? Dang it! I thought I should match what I've been saying all this time. Shoot!
Phil
Shady Acres Woodshop. That’s okay, Phil. I just love saying “Madrona”, like magnolia, and myrtle, and other fun tree names. Just got two more really big wet and heavy chunks of the stuff this week.
Phil: Thanks for the inspiration you provide to newbies like me. I've started with pens, but plan to move up to bowls soon. You sir are a steely eyed missleman! Keep up the great work!
Thank you, Jim! I started at a spindle turner, also, but once I discovered bowls, I find spindle turning very difficult. My advice, keep your hand in both!
Phil
Love the colours. What a lovely piece.
Thank you so much, David!
Phil
What a gorgeous piece took you a fair bit of time but the end result is absolutely stunning defiantly a keeper thanks for sharing it.
Thank you so much, Wade! It's a favorite of mine. 😊
Very special piece Phil
Thank you, Art! 😊
i have for the first time seen you turn tuffiys root ball absolutely beautiful just about to buy my first lathe and start turning myself
Much success to you, Raymond! Thank you, I'm so glad you like this piece!
Phil
Phil, your patience and attention never fails to amaze. Some folks would have torn that root ball to pieces by getting in a hurry and not paying attention. But you my friend can take a cucumber & and make a bowl out of it. That’s a beautiful piece of natures workmanship. They broke the mold with you, buddy!
Wow! What can I say to that, Kid, except thank you very much! You are a day brightener!
Phil
very nice Phil, as a turner myself, I am very attracted to the unusual pieces. Good job!
Thank you very much, Terry!
Phil
Sorry for your loss. I enjoy your work.
Thank you, Bobby!
Phil I like to watch the challenges you face with each unique turning! I think your a master of the craft. Very happy to see that you don't resin fill these pieces as others would. Resin has its place. But nothing beats what mother nature produces, I tell folks she created it but it is my responsibility to bring it to it's lasting beauty to be passed on.
Regards
Tim.
Thank you very much, Tim! 😊
Sorry to hear about your wife. The bowl is truly extraordinary. Thank you for sharing.🙋
