    Thank you so much for this! I have a beautifully spalted oak stump I’m making into an end table and haven’t had an luck finding good solid advice on how to handle the soft parts. Everyone is recommending epoxies and wood hardeners but they are ridiculously expensive and change the color of the wood to make it look like plastic.
    Sometimes all you need is an experienced wood worker for god solid advice…thank you again!

    Larry ,I ave been tuning for 35 years and have turned a lot of punky white birch and others using Mix tung oil , soakin the blank over night and the next day it hardened the wood rock hard and turns easily and does not pull the grain , leaves a very smooth finish . Try a small piece of punky wood ,put in a dish with MW tung oil or equal and watch the wood sosk it up. Take it out of container ,drain , let it cure over nite or until it has cured then turn and see the results, it is amazing how it turns with no punkiness ,but as a hard piece

    Great instruction.
    Really enjoy your commentary and banter. New to turning. Came across a punky chunk of cherry and thought, what the heck. I wasn't a fan of spalting, seems like a fad to me. But when I saw the figure/color patterns, I kind of changed my mind. But try to get a smooth surface!!!
    Thanks for your work.

    • @TheWoodWhirler

    I love this! I've really been seeking the best 'punky wood' treatment since it would open up a lot of turning options. I'm gonna give sealer a try, perhaps I was giving up on it as an option too early with only a coat or two. Makes total sense it would take much more. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful bowl! I see this video is 6 years old, have you had more progress or further refined technique for punky wood since this? I plan on browsing your video collection but wouldn't mind being pointed in the right direction if there is more to your 'punky wood journey' :)

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could, but I don't see the need. It would take a large container, a lot of cactus juice at $100+ per gallon, and a toaster oven. This works just as well for this purpose and costs nothing. That's the whole purpose of showing this method. Thanks, Larry

    Hey Larry,
    I just happened to find your video on punky Holly. I recently came across punky Holly and after turning it down to toothpick size trying to get past the punky I tossed it into the firewood pile.
    I have two questions:
    Is the sanding sealer the only adhesive being used to hold the saw dust onto the bowl?
    Would a mixture of Shellacl, Denatured alcohol, and BLO work as the sealer?
    I am always appreciative of the time guys like you have given to share and advance knowledge in the crafts.

      No, Punk wood is a stage the wood goes through as it begins to rot. The final and next stage is for the wood to rot. Punky wood is sort of like a sponge. The slurry I make fills are the little voids and makes it hard. Anything else, let me know, Larry

    Hi Larry great stuff. I just subscribed ( my first). I work with pinky wood a lot as it's free here on the farm and I'm just learning how to turn. Anyhow I've learned a lot watching you. I'm sure you've heard this question before, but not from me. What is the glue you used in the punky bowl. I heard you say it gets real hot. I think. Thanks for your help and advice. Take care

    • @TheWoodWhirler

      Punky wood can really be pretty. The glue is call CA Glue same as super glue. You can get it off Amazon. You need the thin CA. I get the 8oz bottles, lot cheaper than way. Thanks and take care, Larry
      P.S. If you have any other questions you can e-mail me at earthloc@gmail.com.

    I didn’t quite get the mixture you are using to stabilize the wood.

      Minwax sanding sealer and saw dust or shavings. That's it, no more. Thanks, Larry

    Hi Larry, greetings from from Australia. Thanks for sharing your work, that bowl process was amazing. Can you tell me please the ingredients of the sealer.

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I looked on the can and it doesn't list the ingredients. It's MinWax Sanding Sealer. It's water based. I get mine from Amazon about $50 US for a gallon. Here's the link. Take care, Larry

    Larry, what kind of scraper did you use in the video? Is that a carbide cutter attached to an old HSS scraper?

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No that's a home made tool I call the "Beaver". Here's the video I made on it a couple of years ago. I should be selling them in a few months. th-cam.com/video/afs663RSYoM/w-d-xo.html, Thanks, Larry

    Another very informative video. Thank you. What are your thoughts about using a shellac based sealer vs the water based. Thx again

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Don't know, never used shellac. Mine works great. I try not to fix what is not broke. Thanks, Larry

      @TheWoodWhirler  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Water. The sealer is water-based. Thanks, Larry

      Yeah, that's my beaver. Hope to be selling them soon. Keep watching, I will do a video on it again when they are ready. Here's the original video. Thanks, Larry th-cam.com/video/LZxqxPmo6Kk/w-d-xo.html

    Is this sealer food safe?

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't know for sure. My opinion is that they are all food safe once fully cured. For what it's worth. I don't worry about it, but I wouldn't eat out of it until it was fully cured. Take care, Larry

    Larry, I know you published this video months ago, but life and work being what it is, I haven’t stood at my lathe at all during that time. I am spending a little time now catching up on what I’ve been missing. This video is just the inspiration I needed to make the time to get back there. I’ve had spalted pieces of a large branch that broke off one of my trees a couple years ago sitting in my rack for a couple years. I had tried working with a chunk and couldn’t overcome the punkiness. Now I know what to do, thanks to your video! Also, I’ve decided that I need a Beaver. Do you mind if I copy your design? Thanks again for your effort in putting together these videos for us.. Paul

    • @paulgibson8056
      @paulgibson8056 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh wait. Now I see in the following video that you will be selling the business end of the Beaver! That’s perfect! I’ll go figure out how to buy one. Thanks again, Larry!

    • @TheWoodWhirler
      @TheWoodWhirler  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, that's sort of on hold. Go ahead and make you one if you want. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Larry
