Love your videos Phil. I just got my first lathe and you are my favorite teacher here!
Don't be too hard on your self. I laughed when you said : "you're probably all laughing at me right now". I laughed at your comment, definitely not at your work, it's an amazing piece of art and gives me loads of inspiration.
Good to know, Bas, thank you! 😊
The juxtaposition of the delicate goblet atop the live edge wood base is dynamite. Well done. 👍🏻🇺🇸
😊
I think it is absolutely gorgeous and wouldn't change a thing on it.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Good to know, J'Lyssa, thank you! 😊
We love the contrast between “this is kind of what I started with” at the bottom and “this is what you can do if you really apply yourself” at the top. And the colour is just amazing - so rich and chocolatey.
GREAT goblet , done a few...
Awesome hardwood.thank you.
😊
Such patience. I would have froze making such delicate work. Inspiring.
Thanks, Jonny! 😊
That is STUNNING... I just recently 'found' you, so I am binge watching your videos... I love the way you let the wood 'talk' to you and decide how you're going to turn each piece... you're awesome... THANK you for all the great content.
Welcome, Celia and thank you! 😊
My wife and I go and dig out iron wood stumps out of the ground. What looks like old rotting wood is an amazing treasure every time I cut a new pice. Some are brown like youe some are almost black and occasionally we get some that shimers like gold. Awsome job thanks for sharing.
Sounds like you get to have fun more than once, Garet! It's nice you and your wife work together like that. I'm glad you like this, thank you!
Nice result. Finishing the “bark” was a good call. 👍
Thanks, George! 👍
This would make an outstanding trophy goblet on anyone's mantle. 🇺🇸👍🏻
😊
Phil , You have a Great Eye , once you get turning a piece of wood !
I Love It !
Thanks 👍
Thank You Phil...You are the OPPOSITE of a know-it-all-gung-ho-do-it my- way because I know what's best!!!! kind of wood turner...Phil that is just ONE of the reasons I love watching you turn. I always learn about wood turning and how to approach a project when I watch you turn Phil. U the best Phil !!!...Iron Wood is a wood I was fascinated with when I was little & still am as an old guy. Thank You Dave, "Calmwood Creations" for sending... Great job Phil, it looks like a perfect shot "glass" for "Game of Thrones" ...Look forward to next week Phil...tm
Maybe I should change the title, Tuffy? "Game Of Thrones Shot Glass." The video would probably go viral! LOL! Thank you, my friend!
Phil
Well Phil. You did a marvelous job. There were a few moments where I wanted to give you an attitude adjustment for your opinions of your ideas and self doubt . You ARE an artist no matter what you think about yourself. Yes the wood is the show but like a potterer that manipulates the clay - the wood is in your capable hands. Beautiful stunning creation
Haha, "attitude adjustment!" Love that, Glenda!
2 years down the road b i watch this and your idea looks very good everything is balanced
The whole piece is Beautiful.
Thank you Judith, I like it, too!
Your goblet for not having faith in your spindle turning method turned out GREAT. You didn't need a blueprint for it. EXCELLENT as always. YOU reminded us when you were sanding the end of the goblet you were talking about sanding lightly . Too much sanding will cause friction of the paper heating the wood which may cause the wood to weaken and the splits may get bigger. Good job!!!! KEEP ON TURNING
Thanks, Howard! I love this piece, it still sits right up front! 😊
I’m glad to k ow I’m not the only one who take to themselves while doing a project! Ha. That wood looks amazing. More like polished stone! I think you always do your “best” Phil. And that is pretty darn good.
Tuffy calls this a Game of Thrones shot glass. LOL!
Phil, You did an amzing job considering the the uncertainty involved. As I have said in the Past, You are a true artist.
Thanks, Jody! 😊
Awesome job Phil. You say what is always on my mind when I turn. But you are not afraid to put it out there. That is a great quality. Learning as we go. And not being intimidated. Great video. Sal
Thank you, Sal! 😊
It’s cute pretty piece. With all the doubts you did well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, thoughts and experience.
Thank you, Nancy! 😂
Good call on the bead! It breaks up the transition nicely. I always learn something from your videos Phil, Thanks for sharing the journey!
You bet, thanks for watching!

Phil you got one thing wrong: me laufhing at you. On the contrary: I truly admire that you made the brave decision on trying to go out of your comfort zone with turning a goblet. Especially with that kind of very hard wood. I had my own share of going out of my comfort zone so I exactly know how it feels. The grain of the wood looks awesome. For me a goblet is never easy to make. So congratulations on this project! Awesome.
Thanks for that, Stephanie! I was pretty sure the wood was going to be worth anything I had to go through to help it shine a bit. 😊
Wonderful love the colour and the concept beautiful thanks for sharing
Thank you very much, Nick!
Phil
I carve and appreciate the beauty of wood. A I see that you are the ssme.A few yrs ago I got my hands on an incredible piece of burl wood. I sanded it and just varnished it and it is spectacular. I love your work..
It's good to know you are out there appreciating the wood, too, thanks! 😊
Lovely wood, and a sweet little goblet!
😊
Thanks Phil very good turning and finish mate
Thank you, Paul, I'm really glad you like it!
Phil
Hi Phil, Your self comments are truly one of a kind, you explain every detail of your wonderful woodturning creations, love your humour within you, always look forward to seeing you do your art. 👌
Thank you so much, Laurie! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Phil
Very unusual. . . and beautiful to boot!
Thank you, Dan, for taking your time to watch and comment, I'm glad you like it!
Phil
Watching you work with that piece of hard petrified wood reminding me of a goblet I made one time out of an 85 year old Bois D'Arc fence post. Very pretty
I love that, Gary! I wish I had an old fence post I could do that with. 😊
First class result 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧
I like it too, Maud, thank you! 😊
Yes, you did your very best, it’s outstanding as ever
Thank you, Tracy! 😊
Phil. I never would second guess you. Once you cut off the small section I could see a lot more promise that you would achieve your goal. I think you did a very good job in creating this goblet. Once it was finished it was beautiful
Thank you, Dave, I'm glad you like it! 😊
Gorgeous - pour the wine! Odd how your oft-times expressions of doubt turn hunks of wood into stunning creations. Time for a refill.
Many thanks! 😊
Gorgeous wood! And what a curious goblet, a bit like a champagne flute with a massive foot. :D
Thank you, Nan! 😊 Cheers!
I like it, I like the transition from rough to precision
Me too, Jack, thank you! 😊
Phil, you have NO need to doubt yourself & your woodturning. It was hard wood & different wood but your approach to your woodturning & your desire to expose the beauty within a piece of wood, regardless of its size & shape, leaves little room for doubt that you will succeed in producing a 'thing of beauty'. An 'artist ' creates apiece because THEY WANT TO, not because someone places a set requirement on. Be bold & resolute using your skills, which are abundant, produce your piece then let other people decide if they like it or don't like. As long as YOU, the artist - woodturner likes it that is what 's most important. That being the case I am sure that the majority of people who view it are going to like it & most of those people are, like me, going to love it. Your a great woodturner & don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Different for you, sure it was but it turned out to be a delightful 'emerging goblet. Well done my friend. Stay safe & well & keep them coming. Don
Thank you, Don, for your effusive, inspirational comments! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop If ever I waffle on too much Phil I think I have previously to please tell me. Cheers, Don
That very different. I love it.
Phil, you are a goofball like me and a lot of my relatives. I love what you do. I watch almost everyday. Keep it up. tc
You rock! 😊
Phil, you was able to take full advantage of this incredible piece of wood. What a color, what a smooth finish, ...great result, Phil.
I'll try to do something similar soon, ..but I need to find a piece of wood with some character that help me a little: The wood is so important!
Thank you man.
Thank you very much, Robert! 😃 You are right, the wood is important and the boss!
Looks great Phil! Thank you! Your heart is in your work and it brings out your wood turning wisdom! Very inspiring!
Thank you, Mike! 😊
Beautiful wood and you did a great job turning it and it is your creation
Thank you so much, Steve!
Phil
WOW I like that great job Phil
Thank you, Robert! 😊 It's a favorite of mine, too!
Great piece, SKOL. BOTTOMS UP!
You know it, Jessi! 😊
Once again Phil,,,Beautiful piece. 👍👍👍👍
Really glad you like it, Jack, thank you!
Phil
Hi Phil. You may believe that you don’t have a designers mind, but there is nothing wrong with your imagination. Well done
Thank you, Johan! Cheers! 😊
Absolutely beautiful wood. I think you accomplished what you set out to do, particularly in the space the piece provided to you.
Thank you, Mark! 😊
You are an awesome craftsman and a very humble person. Love it videos, keep em coming
Thank you very much, Tony! 😊
Another great job. I think it looks fantastic.
Cool, thank you! 😊
While it was on the lathe I thouht the base looked to big however stood up it sort of works, I do believe I have caught up with all your videos now, making a final check, my one disappointment is I have only seen the mouse wrangler twice, we need to see more of him. Thanks for the journey Phil and may you keep turning for a long time yet my friend.
Thank you, Lewis, for spending so much of your time and thoughts with me, much appreciated! 😊
Great job Phil. Love it
Just amazing. Your work is wonderful.
I always like it when people appreciate this one, Carolyn. It's unique and so are you! 😊
Good evening, Phil.
I like it. The wood as amazing. Very glad you settled on the shape, it is exactly correct. I may have used the detail tool and created a ring to form the base of the cup as it sets on the log. That may not look 'emerging' but that's my thought.
Thumbs up, my friend.
Thanks for the tips, Ray! 😄
Looks great 👍
Thanks 👍
Amazing piece of wood Phil
It is, isn't it Paul! I'm so fortunate to have had the opportunity to turn it!
Phil
Beautiful u are amazing at what you do with such a delicate looking piece of wood
Thank you very much, Jim! 😊
I know how you feel when you don't think you have good grip on the part but jump in and giderdunn!!!! If you mess up, don't show the video. Nobody will know.
This piece turned out splendidly. You should be proud of your work, your followers love it.
Keep-on-keep'n on!!!
HA! Don't show it, huh? I wouldn't have any videos to share if that was the case, Grampa! LOL! I don't mind showing my goofs. Maybe lots of folks have goofs too and we can all commiserate. I am proud of pieces like this because I really taxed my skills and came up with something respectable. I'm really glad you like it, thank you!
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I ment no offense by my statement. It's just ment to say, if you screw up a piece that your not proud of don't show the video! A kind of tongue in cheek, har har.
@@grampashorty8468 No offense taken, Grampa. Probably just a case of written word can't show the look on someones face or emotions or whatever. It's all good!
22. 31 A great job Phil, don't knock yourself buddy. Thanks.
I'm not really knocking myself, it's more of a realization that I'm just not a spindle turner! LOL! I'll keep trying, now and then, maybe one day! 😊
I would make one into a candlestick. Its a very pretty wood and piece.
😊
Phil this is an exquisite piece! The wood is so beautiful. You out did yourself. I really enjoy listening to you discuss the process. I’m so glad I found your channel!!
Awesome! Thank you! 😊
This looks like a museum piece. Bravo brother!
I'm so glad you like it, I do too! Thank you! 😊
I like it. You had me laughing all the way through this video. You're a funny guy.
LOL!
Good job Phil, I like you learning cure .
Thank you, Judith! 😊
What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. The dark finish really makes it look so stunning.
Thank you Frame 50, I'm really glad you like it!
Phil
Actually very beautiful Great work!!!
Thank you very much, Hubert! 😊
Wow! That is beautiful!
My wife said it's gorgeous and that's saying something. And she wants it.
😃
Phil this is Craig Warren from Newton Grove NC and I watch you all the time. I've been following your work for several years and appreciate you doing natural turning. I've never used the zinser seal coat but plan to add it to my list of sealers and finishes. Keep them coming Phil you are an inspiration to us and I'd like to chat sometime. Happy turning!!!
Thanks a lot, Craig! 😊
Another great piece, Phil. Quit doubting your abilities and creativity. Your work is always outstanding.
Thank you, William! Well, what can I say, if I'm trying something I've never tried before, how do I know I can do it? LOL!
Phil
I was pleasantly surprised by the end result. I really like the finish. A beautiful piece of art
I'm so glad, Joe! I had ya going for awhile there, didn't I? LOL! Thank you my friend!
Phil
I love it. Recently made my first goblet with captured ring. Think I’m gonna try your creation out next
Thank you, William! Good luck with yours!
Osage orange is the same way, you’ve got to sharpen your tools every few minutes, tough stuff. Beautiful turning. Love the video 👍👍👍👍
Thank you, Mark! 😊
Fantastic work- looks great to me. 👍👌🇦🇺🔭
One of my favorites, Shevill! Thank you!
Phil
I really like this. Nice job Phil.
I'm so glad, Ralph, thank you! 😊
Hi Phil, yes there is such a thing as Desert ironwood. I just had to Google it. What you did with this wood it truly amazing! I love this little goblet. It looks more like a sherry glass. My Pop used to drink sherry (nasty stuff) and seemed to quite enjoy it. You my friend and an amazing woodworker. May God bless and watch over you always! Your Florida friend, Dotty ❤️
😊
Awesome and strange. That’s for sharing
Thank you for watching, Tony, I'm glad you like it!
Beautiful piece Phil! Thank you for sharing. Here in southeast Indiana our ironwood is also known as blue beech. Like your piece, it is a very hard and dense wood. Now that I've viewed your video; I have some confidence that I can turn the couple of pieces that are sitting in a corner of my shop. Thanks again!
Good, Phil! I'm glad you feel more confident and I'm really glad you have some to work with. Good luck!
Ugly wood outside, beautiful inside. You made it emerge not only as a goblet (or egg cup?), but also as a beautifully finished conversation piece. The contrast of the rough and smooth, weathered outer surface and rich interior wood makes for a very nice end result. Well done in spite of your being unsure.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, unsure the whole time, Valerie. But, you are right, it polishes up so nicely it was worth all the trepidation and effort. Thank you, my friend!
Phil
That looks awesome to me!!!
Me too, Darryl, thank you! 😃
Stunning!
Thank you! 😊
Awesome job Phil!
Thanks a lot, Mark! 😊
I think you're my new hero. That is just gorgeous!
Very happy to be your hero, Lili! Thank you!
Phil
I just watched this goblet build of yours and it was beautiful. Thank you for your advise a few months ago. You are absolutely my favorite turner as you actually teach and others just show which is totally worthless. I say again I wish I could meet you someday. Happy Easter Sunday. God bless you Phil. Thank you, Billy Bob from Ding Dong, Texas
I like it Phil 👍
It looks great. I really like it.
Glad you like it! 😊
Beautiful!
Thank you, Rahman! Cheers!
Breathtakingly beautiful Phil! Emerging in every possible meaning of the word! You did good, Sir!
Thank you, Charles!
phil i think it looks just beautiful brother . desert iron wood huh . when i was a boy i worked with my uncle in the woods he rn pulp wood to the paper mill in manistee michigan . what a wonderful place that was as a boy . stunk to high heaven but such a cool place . a big tractor we called them skidders would come and when i say big i mean big . my uncle had a 11 speed flat bed international semi truck and the top of the tires on this skidder were taller then the cab on his truck . sorry got off point lol . my point was my uncle got into some iron wood with his chainsaw and the sparks just flew out of it it being the first time i ever saw iron wood i thought he hit a nail . he cut for a while then stopped to sharpen the saw . i asked him about the nail and why he would keep sawing through it . he laughed and said no buddy its iron wood . it gets its name from the sparks it throws when sawing it . it is caused by minerals in the ground . now i dont know how much of that story is true on how it gets its name but thats what he told me and well thats what i know about iron wood lol . so if it is iron wood you have there it is a beautiful piece . love the way you made it look and sorry for such a long winded comment lol . i kinda miss my youth and wish i would have payed more attention to what i was being tought back then . sure would know alot more and be alot better for it now . bless ya brother again beautiful work phil . bless ya buddy
You've painted a beautiful picture of you childhood, d d m! It made me reminisce about my own youth. I think we both wish we had paid more attention to what we were being taught. So glad you like this and enjoyed the video. Thank you!
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop phil your a artist brother . art transports us to another place or time . it allows our minds to wander and remember . the journey might not be the same for everyone . but the goal is the same . thank you for your art brother it makes the world a better place .
It’s really beautiful!
😊
Bravo! For all your worry, you accomplished your goal and produced a beautiful Goblet,
Thank you, Mario, I'm really glad you like it!

Thank you, Robert, I'm glad you like it!

Arizona ironwood. If I remember correctly, it's an acacia wood. My father-in-law collected many oddities in his southwestern states explorations, mostly rocks and minerals, but I found two branches of this buried at the back of his garage. It had been there for a minimum of 30 years! And likely longer than that. Dry, dry, dry! Expected you to do a natural edge bowl, but I did issue you a challenge, didn't I? And you stepped right up and met it! I understand that you have problems with spindle turning projects. I can't do a vase shape to save my shavings, so I do understand. One thing I use for goblets is a tennis ball in the cup. Stops vibration without applying undue pressure. Works a treat when attempting long tapering stems.
Nicely turned! 👍👍
Dave, I just can't thank you enough for giving me to opportunity to challenge myself with this beautiful piece of wood. It's good to hear some of it's history, too! Most people would have found that and tossed it into a garbage can, but not you! I do know about the tennis ball trick but just didn't feel it necessary as the stem seemed plenty strong enough to do what I had to do, but I'll remember it in case there is a next time. Thank you, my friend!
Phil
I remember the day I was cleaning out the accumulated junk in the garage, making space for my woodwork stuff. Found what looked like exceptionally weathered driftwood. Casually tried to lift one of the branches-- darned thing could be used for an anchor! About put my back out because I'd tried lifting with one arm only. Now that I've seen what you could do with that small chunk, I'll have my own go at it.
Usually an acacia or mesquite, sometimes it will be large creasote bush. Let the carbide do the work and clean up the the other tools. You figured it out. Job well done. Take care gentlemen. From Somerton, Az.
I think it looks great!
Thank you, Tina, I'm glad you like it and took your time to let me know!
Phil
I absolutely love the care you take with each and every piece you create! That wood is stunning!
It is, I wish I had more of it! 😊
Beautiful! I told my friend about your videos today and she's going to check out some of them.
Awesome! Thank you, Mary! 😂
Phil you always do your very best. The grain the color of the wood is magnificent.
Great job Phil, you worry way toooooo much. We don't have that timber in Aussie shame could be fun. Keep turning and giving us different ideas.
Kind regards Steve Sayers
SJS Wood turning.
Thank you, Steve! An unusual wood like this deserves a little worry, I think. I'll keep on turning, you keep on watching, please!
Phil
Looks great
Thank you Rich&Jen!
Phil
The wood IS gorgeous, Phil, but your working of it is amazing, as usual. I was very nervous watching this bur all is well that ends well........!!!
Thank you very much, Barry! 😊
Wow! What a beautiful piece! I only started watching your videos about a month ago and have been in awe of your talent and insight to what can be turned. Keep it up, I really enjoy watching.
Thank you, Georgia! 😊
Purple heart maybe? A lovely piece of wood anyway, and a good result.
No, not Purpleheart, Richard. 😊
I think it's very cool and I appreciate your videos
Wow, thank you, Mike! A great way to start my day!
Phil
Thank you very much, Mike, I appreciate you watching and taking your time to comment!
Phil
It is in fact Southwest Iron Wood. I have turned it in the past using carbide tools. The wood is one of the hardest and is brittle. Very much like Mountain Mahogany which is native to California high desert. Both have a high silica content. I do not but a finish on my turnings, I sand to 600 grit then buff with Tripoli, white diamond and carnuba wax. Shines just like a polished stone. Iron Wood is often used for knife scales. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, T Lewis Dean, for all your valuable information!
