I feel like, if we could flash forward 100 years and watch 'Antiques Roadshow' someone would come on there and say "oh yeah, this bowl was my grandmas and we always ate candy out of it blah blah blah" and the appraiser will say "I don't know if you noticed my hands shaking but what you have here is a Frank Howarth original. He was a very important figure in woodworking and the TH-cam community....You may want to sit down for this...."
@@williammedeiros2699 By definition Frank is creative, "as relating to or involving the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work."
While the complex construction of the bowl is the obvious focus here, I just want to give a quick shoutout to your cinematography and editing! So many beautiful close up shots!! It's one thing to watch you create something beautiful, but it's another to see how your presentation is also beautiful! Thank you for making such stellar work!
I agree. Frank’s woodworking and projects are wonderful and delightful. What should not be overlooked is his video craft and story telling. Every shot, his occasional stop motion work, his combined video into video projector-style shot, and the fun of family is so well done. Bravo, Frank! And thank you.
I agree. His scene transitions, the narrations, the crafty text & video overlays. Most people would assume this was professionally done in a video studio.
God there's so much meaning in every cut, angle, wood, etc. It is ridiculous how important it is for your family but would completely be ignored by anyone else without any knowledge of the process, timeline, etc. Really great job!
I would´nt even be surprised if one day we see him turn a complicated segmented bowl like this just to mill it up and epoxy some other creation out of the sawdust of a segmented bowl^^
So cool! Both the incorporation of the skyline and the rotating near the end (before you cut that nib off). Great video as always, and what a wonderful present. Thanks a lot Frank, for your amazing videos.
Glad to see you using walnut oil as a finish. I use it almost exclusively. I like the natural look to the finish. And that is one of the few oils that hardens. Nice bowl.
Using a pointed hardwood dowel to create a sort of perfectly placed little spindle in the bottom is actually a really interesting idea to create a sort of "weightless" bowl that can spin gently like a top
The cutters you used to remove the tab off of the bottom look like fret nippers used by guitar makers and repair people. Amazing work Frank. I love watching your videos and seeing your process.
I love the design and detail of this project. It is amazing how you are able to visualize the final configuration in your mind and then determine how you are going to get to the final product. I am in awe of your woodworking capabilities! One concern I have is with the pie shaped segmented base. Most segmented turners stay away from the pie shaped base because it is very susceptible to cracking due to wood movement. As the wood moves due to humidity the pieces will not always move in the same direction thus creating a cracked base. There are several alternatives to a pie shaped bottom, I suggest reading "The Art of Segmented Wood Turning"; Malcolm Tibbetts does an excellent job of explaining the aspects of segmented turning. Great work Frank, love the channel!
Beautiful piece Frank! Those "cutters" that you used on the bottom are for removing nails, the top is super rounded so that you can grip and then rock sideways to lever the nail out.
It occurs to me you could make a segmented piece with buildings, and have windows filled with wedges of coloured epoxy. Then put a candle inside after it's turned :D The skyline effect works amazingly well with this segmented turning :)
Fabulous work as always! What amazes me, and is completely out of Frank's control, is the increasing number of ads! Less than 20 minute video had 6 ad-breaks!
Excellent in all aspects. The staging and editing are so good that I was torn between concentrating on the creativity of the project and the mastery of the videography.
I think that might be because 2020 felt like it lasted 5 years >.< I'm not holding out much hope for 2021. Please keep making the videos Frank. It's one of the few things keeping me sane ;-)
The tool at the 18:10 mark is a farrier's hoof nipper, so it makes perfect sense that they'd work perfectly for this. Not a lot of difference, conceptually, between trimming a hoof back and trimming a wood nub back.

you've taped into my fantasies. lol
...and then the announcer would say, “What you have here is called the Atlanta Bowl. Incredible rare...”
@@frankmakes So do ensure you mark or sign your work somehow, so the appraiser can show everyone how he knows what the piece is!
@@craftsmanwoodturner The chance of anyone else replicating this piece is close to zero I'd say, so if it looks real, it is real.
@@craftsmanwoodturner 18:57 check the signature on the bottom
The creativity that comes from Frank is unparalleled.
I would say he isn’t really creative, but he’s craftsmanship is a 10/10 for sure, it always looks clean and perfect
@@williammedeiros2699 Who else puts a skyline in a segmented project? It's pretty unique. 👍
@@williammedeiros2699 By definition Frank is creative, "as relating to or involving the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work."
you must be really boring if you think this is creative
@@williammedeiros2699 because most stuff is done on a cnc
You, Sir, are a true artist.
And the Oscar for the best Idea, imagination, cinematography , explanation etc etc etc goes to Mr Frank Howarth... Thank you
Wow, what a beautiful bowl. I'm sure your brother-in-law and sister-in-law will love it.
Isn’t it amazing how often Frank’s guesswork “comes out okay”. Talent and humility; uncommon.

Your videos are such a welcome, soothing relief for what’s going on in the world right now. Love from London!
As a huge fan of yours who is also an Atlantan, this is my favorite project by you.
Is not only your creations and your technical skills, your narration is what I always enjoy the most
God there's so much meaning in every cut, angle, wood, etc. It is ridiculous how important it is for your family but would completely be ignored by anyone else without any knowledge of the process, timeline, etc. Really great job!
I love this channel so much.
All these years and you're still doing such great and interesting editing.
This is one of my favorite projects that you've ever done! Your segmented projects are always so good.
You're such an inspiration Frank, thank you for all you do
Watching your new videos is always the highlight of my day. You've been a constant source of inspiration for years now.
Really dig your turning skills and more on your ingenuity figuring out how to create a unique bowl design.
Fantastic. I don't know how anyone could not love your laugh Frank 🧡
So cool! I love how you did the effect of Projecting the milling videos on the shop wall as you tell the story!!! Wonderful
Amazing! Loved the outcome of this piece!
Frank, even by your standard, that is absolutely beautiful. Love it!
The genius of your creations, and the methods used to create them, never ceases to amaze. Cheers Frank.

Once again a beautiful work of art! You're a true modern craftsman. Love your work and detail of every peice.
Amazing as always! You're an inspiration, sir. Thank you!
Glad to see you using walnut oil as a finish. I use it almost exclusively. I like the natural look to the finish. And that is one of the few oils that hardens. Nice bowl.
Another family heirloom in the books. Gorgeous, thoughtful work as always, Frank.
That's real craftmanship there. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks Frank, a beautiful bowl once again!
You are amazing. I love your work, your chuckle and your wonderful skills.
FRANK THATS A AWESOM BOWL .VERY NICE .FROM DOUG
I want Frank's laugh as my morning alarm sound.
even for people whos best diy-job is to paint a wall, people like me, your videos are just awesome. love your videos frank!
Happy Birthday Cozy! Cheers for the video guys, awesome as always!
The same bottom with tetris pieces floating down would be cool.
Awesome bowl. Thanks for flying Delta
This is 1000 x better than those youtube drama channels thank you Mr Frank
wow such a complected glue up and cnc to a simple finish.and a stunning piece..i`m in awe
That's beautiful Frank, I'm sure it was appreciated.
Frank wonderful as usual absolutely awesome and stunningly beautiful.
I'm sure Alan & Jane were bowled over by your generous gift. 🎁
get outtt 😂😂😂😂😂
amazing project! and i love the extra commentary about your thoughts during tgevproject!
Using a pointed hardwood dowel to create a sort of perfectly placed little spindle in the bottom is actually a really interesting idea to create a sort of "weightless" bowl that can spin gently like a top
yes, I think it also worked because it was a segmented bowl and the side where similarly weighted all the way around.
Wow... both an amazing project and really nice video editing work. Great work Frank!
What a wonderful family heirloom to be!
You can tell Frank is especially proud of this one.
What a beautiful bowl! - Ed
Truly a Masterpiece of Theater

I'm amazed at how you can visualize that before creating it. Always enjoy your productions, Cheers!
I so admire your skill and talent.
The skills you display are unbelievable. I am in awe. So amazing 🤩🙌🤟
What a nice piece. Congratulations.
Awesome video. Just a stunning result from a thoughtful and really clever concept.
What a stunning piece Frank. The symbolism is amazing. An amazing heirloom piece! Cheers from Nova Scotia my friend!!
I love your stuff !! I love the way you orchestrate your videos!
Beautiful work! What a gift!❤️
I like this interlocking a lot. It has a lot of meaning for the piece, and is a very cool woodworking project. Neat!
I love that you are measuring with an engineering scale ruler.
blame the CNC
A beautiful bowl. Impressive techniques, too. Well done!
Beautiful work. I love the design of this, and being able to watch every step was really cool.
Fantastic as always. Thanks for sharing Frank.
Terrific quality camera work and editing.
The man. The myth. The legend. Sir Frank Howarth 💯
Now that's what I would call an Heirloom! I hope that you signed that one Frank! 👍👍
Beautiful piece Frank!
Those "cutters" that you used on the bottom are for removing nails, the top is super rounded so that you can grip and then rock sideways to lever the nail out.
You snapped once again frank. I need a twin cities MN one😜
Beautiful large bowl, good job.
It occurs to me you could make a segmented piece with buildings, and have windows filled with wedges of coloured epoxy. Then put a candle inside after it's turned :D
The skyline effect works amazingly well with this segmented turning :)
Epic! No one does any better work!
I'm a big fan, very nice.
Another masterpiece Frank
The plan for this bowl is better than most city planning
That's awesome! Thanks for putting this together!
Nice , always love everything about wood ❤❤
Great job. Extremely creative.👍🏻👍🏻
Fabulous work as always!
What amazes me, and is completely out of Frank's control, is the increasing number of ads! Less than 20 minute video had 6 ad-breaks!
Hi, 'Enhancer for TH-cam' Chrome extension kills ads and gives other options.
Loved the slow motion shots.
A one of a kind gift for sure...awesome!
Let's step back a second and admire the dream woodshop he has and what I don't have beyond a hand saw.
That is a museum piece. Magnificent.❤️👍
Excellent in all aspects. The staging and editing are so good that I was torn between concentrating on the creativity of the project and the mastery of the videography.
Wow, my mind is blown! Looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing another great video. ATB : )
Awesome, as always, Frank! Thanks for sharing.
Wow, that was great Frank! It's the most accurate Atlanta bowl I've ever seen. ;)
I love watching your videos.
Great video and an amazing bowl
Love the shape of this bowl
Excellent work. I enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.
Incredible! I'm impressed.
Gosh turning that bowl with the big excess pieces of wood jutting out looks absolutely terrifying. Nice work!
Very nice Frank!!
Good hevvins. Wonderful work, wonderful video.
What a gift! From an in law !!
Nicely done
As always amazing job.
First watch of your video. Very good turning! Thanks
Very nice result, sir.
I can't believe that tree milling video was 4 years ago
Yeah, that hurts ^^'
Watching Frank's kids shoot up makes me feel ancient.
@@dcurry7287 I don't even want to think about that! haha
Me too
I think that might be because 2020 felt like it lasted 5 years >.< I'm not holding out much hope for 2021.
