Phil, thanks for joining me at lunch. Great sandwich. Now, about that turning. I absolutely agree that the funny lip had to go. Beautiful result. And my favorite teacher is back! Just please, no more suggestion that the result was just due to the wood, luck and Tuffy's generosity. It is your magical insight and turning that put it all together.
THANK YOU PHIL !!!!!!!!! What a joy to hear your voice again, it feels sooooo gooood, YEA!!!!!!! ... American Sycamore next to the huge UC Berkeley Bell Tower. Phil it is punky because they trimmed off the dead limbs. It was just the best I could find. I could, perhaps, cut down one of the solid trees BUT I am guessing (ha) the campus police might not appreciate that ??? When I saw that limb I thought "perhaps spend the rest of your life all spruced up sitting on the shelf instead of rotting away in the compost pile" ... Beautiful turning today Phil, it is such a pleasure to watch you turn, THANKS...TM
Tuffy: Berkeley? Wonder if it is California sycamore (native) rather than American sycamore (native to east coast USA). I have not turned either of those varieties, so would not know. Am only familiar with the hybrid London Plane (sycamore) used so much in landscaping in this area.
Great thought, Tuffy! Much more appreciated all spruced up rather than just waiting to wither away. I appreciate that you could see something in this Sycamore and made the effort to save it! You're our hero! Thank you, my friend! 😊
Beautiful multi-hued sycamor bowl. Many a song bird graced thee; With tunes pleasant to the ear. Thou still live Oh noble sycamor, Thanks to the Phil and Martinez duo. Thx Phil.
Hello Phil, You have inspired me to turn live edge bowls, hang in their buddy. I am 73 years old and you have taught me everything I now use in my turning. Please go ahead making bowls when you can, keeping active keeps we baby boomers alive. Your friend & Student. Don
I'm right there with you, Don. Gotta keep busy. I'm just getting to the point where I think I can start doing that. I'm glad you have turning to keep you busy and alive! Thanks for watching! 😊
Howdy Mr Anderson. Of all the wood turners I have watched on TH-cam you have truly been the most helpful. "5/8 bowl gouge, turning at XRPM. Mask and face shield on". I learned how to mount awkward pieces using a forstner bit from you. Sandaflex is great. You have been a huge inspiration to my turning. Side note... You are a pretty good tax man. You saved that guy's house. Thank you so much for taking the time to teach me and others how to make art out of wood.
You're back! Hallelujah! Have prayed for you and missed your gentle spirit and wonderful talent. The peice is of course beautiful. I have found myself thinking of you as I turn a natural edge or other quirky piece (channeling Phil?) The true art is that you you enhance the wood rather then force it into something unnatural. Welcome back my friend!
Mother Nature may be in charge, Phil, but she sure does get a lot of help from you, buddy. That is a truly beautiful piece, my friend. Cheers to Tuffy for sending you another beautiful piece. Glad to see that you’re back in the shop, my friend. 😃😃👍👍👍 Take care, …..Gord
Hi Phil , What a beautiful piece of turning ! We were blessed this week for having two videos for us to learn more about wood and machines . It's so nice to have you back ! All the best . Al
Nice to see you back Phil, hope you are on the road to recovery. Having just lost my wife of 41 years, I need some inspiration to get me back at the lathe, and seeing your videos always gets me inspired. So thank you for that, and good health to you.
It's a beauty 😍 for sure. I Loved seeing you yesterday and you just showed a great video demonstration this evening. Thanks Phil 😊. Just please take care of yourself. You topped off my TNT. Thursday night turn. Be good. I hope to see you next Thursday
You did a brilliant job with a very awkward piece of wood Phil. Testament to your skill and understanding of what needs to be done to produce a "swan from an ugly duckling ". Cheers Mike
Dear Phil, I am very very happy to see your new video!!! beautiful wood, beautiful interpretation, wonderful shape!!! art of wood, art in work, art in life, art in soul ... thank you very much, see you next week
🙋♂️🏴 Hi My friend Phil, hope hope you don't mind me saying my friend, but I feel that you are not just a utube channel I watch but really a friend. It's so nice to see you back working on the lathe and creating works of art from what nature has provided. You haven't lost your sense of humour and ability to pass on your knowledge to others It's so great to see you back Phil !!!!
PHIL!!! Yay! Missed you! Beautiful bowl! Wish I could feel it too! That wood is spectacular! I love how you help it to be it’s best without taking away its character! 🤗❤️
The bowl is beautiful and I love the form you and nature have created. Glad your feeling well enough to get back in the shop and turn. May all your todays be better than your yesterday. Thanks for sharing
Phil that is just a lovely piece of art, I love how you give the wood every chance to blossom before making your final decision, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all you have taught me about the beauty of wood and that it's all about the wood and not about turning. You truely are a great artist. God bless.
I love the fact that you only do wood working. I know many others use resin and other products in their works. But I don’t think there is nothing more beautiful than what Mother Nature has made. You sure know how to enhance wood.
Oh my gosh that's a beautiful little bowl... welcome back I missed your videos immensely... I did a little happy dance when I saw the little dot next to your picture. I'm so glad you're feeling well enough to turn. welcome back.
What a team - Phil and Toughy - legendary union! Great to see you turning Phil - I hope it felt good to get out in your shop and make some shavings - beautiful piece of work, always a pleasure to see the works of art you make - and your spirit is inspirational. Hope to see you again soon!
Phil!!!!!!!! It’s Phil everyone. Welcome back

What so many would discard to the firewood pile, Tuffy rescued it and once again, you bring out the inner beauty. Very nice job.
Sure enough, Mark! I love this wood! 😊
Happy you shared this beautiful bowl with us.... And glad to see your masterful work again.. Thanks Phil
