- This was such a joy to turn, although quite hard but with proper tool tehnique it doesn't need sanding....
Just Beautiful.
Enjoy

Holly can have a nice white color or some green streaks as well. It is supposedly by how it was dried but i have just let it air dry on the pieces I had. I hated how much I paid for a good faceshield about 15 years ago since it cost over 50$ and I'm a cheapskate. That changed when I turned a big piece of holly as a spindle and an unseen limb piece that wood overgrew flew out and hit me right at where my nose would have been. I stopped complaining about the price )
Very nice gives that autumn feel to it with the colors in it. Never seen it turned befor
The mark of a true craftsman!
Very nice Tomislav Holly will go silvery grey in colour when it gets older.
Wow. I'm going to have a look in my off-cut pile now for those smaller bits that may have been discarded. That really is a lovely piece.
Holly makes a very nice mock ivory for musical instruments such as pipes.
Nice turning, Tomi. Working on a knuckle-buster like that is not as easy as you make it look. Really show your artistic eye and your skill on a lathe.
Thank you
I really enjoy your videos! Watching you handle scrappers and gouges is truly mesmerizing!
Thank you sir
I am very impressed with your skill. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool piece. Would a make a lovely EDC tray. Keep up the amazing work. 👽
Thankyou. Lovely piece. I needed to see that kind of piece being made. I have a river near the house and often gather timber that gets washed onto the bank during flooding so mostly well matured having worked it way down the river over the years, just needing died out for a while. Mostly firewood but often look at some of it and wonder how it would turn. I have a bench saw coming in a couple of weeks so will start raiding my log pile for crotch pieces to make into things. It will be into the flooding season soon so I expect to have a lot of stuff to gather up.
In South Carolina, we have 2 species of full-size trees, and another native (yaupon holly) that sometimes has some decent size. And, of course, dozens of exotics, st least one of which has naturalized. So a lot to choose from.
As mentioned in these comments, if you want pure white, rough out fresh and carefully dry quickly. Or just apply wood bleach. Most folk don't care.
My own favorites: Bradford pear and elm. Literal tons of the pear around. The sale of new trees has rightfully been banned, but still plenty out there for tree people as they tend to self-destruct. Turns like butter when green, then gets rock-hard and polishes up beautifully. Eventually turns a warm russet color, from a fresh pinkish salmon. Haven't yet found a way to chemically accelerate this process. Might give UV light a shot. Elm, though kinda plain, has the most wonderful texture in a finished bowl.
I'm mostly over bark, but holly does hold bark beautifully for natural-edge bowls. As for crack filling, I've discovered that fine, powdery Scotch snuff works great with CA glue. Something in the snuff acts as a natural accelerator and boom -- instant cure. Though I'm starting to question the longevity of CA in general. Epoxy, also mentioned in these comments, is probably more stable.
Beautiful bowl and excellent video, as we've come to expect.
Thank you very much
Excellent, just excellent thank you
That grain is really interesting. I was useful seeing you cut the log up first too. A very pretty dish
Thank you
I have turned lots of Holly - it is a fine wood for turning. Apple is one of my favorites.
Well done dish and an excellent video. Thank you!
Thank you soo much
For anyone wondering; Tomi mentions about using the bandsaw the way you're comfy....... Usually we dony cut round stuff in that way. A round object can roll, as the blade spins it goes down into the table, this can catch a round piece and make it rotate. Because the parts we are cuttin are usually not perfectly round, if the blade makes it rotate the new kerf the blade is trying to cut won't match with the old kerf....... This can kink the blade (maybe break it) and can yank the part from your hands and towards the blade.
Ya could have the crotch section facing the blade, this will help to stop the rotation of the part. As Tomi mentions; work the way you're comfy....... I've seen a round part being cut, it rotated and the lad nearly lost a finger, the cut went into the bone in a flash. Be safe lads, listen to your gut....... If you're gut is tellin ya somethin ain't right, then find another way. It could even be chocked up in a vice and cut with a rough handsaw.
Not saying all this to imply Tomi is wrong..... When ya know what you're doin ya hold things a certain way and put pressure in certain places to anticipate what can happen. I just wanted to elaborate a little more on what can happen 😁 Tomi knows what he's doin.
I always use a sled to cut round pieces as I had one catch and break the blade. Luckily no damage to my fingers or to me personally, but now I try to be as safe as possible. It's difficult to grow new fingers!!
@@changefortanzania my background is hand tool flat work....... So all my blanks are chocked in a vice and cut with handsaws. I'm new to lathe work, but fairly versed with the use of machines, and quite proficient with hand work.......... I wouldn't dream of cuttin round stuff on a bandsaw. In a previous job, I was a "safety officer" of sorts, I would teach new employees how to use the machines, large industrial stuff........ I think me not wanting to cut round objects on a bandsaw is a leftover from my previous job, I wouldn't show others how to do that so in turn I wouldn't do it.
My mindset is about limiting risk....... But, honestly; when ya get used to a certain way of workin it becomes second nature to do it that way. There's nothing wrong with what Tomi is doin, when speed matters (as regards a wage) then ya learn fast ways of doin things, and that's what Tomi is showin. For us hobby lads speed is of little concern....... That's why I wanted to elaborate.
To show me lathe experience more; I'm still slightly "afraid" of it (only a 12inch 1hp lathe), and I've only made 4 tools, 2 boxes, and a bowl......... So dony see my words as someone who has time on a lathe, I'm a complete newb in that regard 😂 but, I know saws and other machines fairly well....... Cuttin round stuff can be dangerous to someone who lacks experience. A sled is a decent option, one of many options, as it limits risk 😁
With experience, one can judge when the hand hold is sufficient, and when a jig or sled is the better way to cut. When inexperienced, always choose the safer option!
I think this type of bowl turning is the most exciting 😅 you don’t😮 know were your going or whats coming up next and at the end beauty is in the eye of the beholder 😊 ( and hope someone else likes it enough to buy it ) lovely job Thomo 😊 as you added the oil at 24,30 it looked like rhinos 🦏 face
Thank you Jim,I really appriciate that
Very nice piece. Thanks for sharing
10:46 "Tm tm tm" Nice wood.
😄
Great work Tomi! Cute little dish, I love natural edge and non symmetrical pieces. Cool that you left the bandsaw disection of the log also, you know I love picking your brain as you go along😅
Thanks Ray,I have left it for you 😄😄
@tomislavtomasicwoodturning thanks buddy! For me it's about the journey and not the end destination. I know there are others way more experienced than me who may not be the case but I'm thirsty for the knowledge.
Always very nice to see you meeting the challenges the wood throws at you and overcoming them. Looks beautiful, thanks!
🕶nice piece Tomislav. It’s interesting to see how you design on the fly. Thanks
Thanks Steven
I'll have to admit I was lost when you kept cutting and cutting into smaller and smaller pieces but knowing that you know what you are doing I kept watching and of course the project turned out amazing!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Good choices on the design!
Lovely little dish. A lot more character than I’m used to seeing in holly. Love it.
Very nice, all the defects add character to the piece, great information on the band saw. thanks for another great video.
I absolutely need this Tomislav custom scraper, hope you are ok with weather and so on, cheers from Luxembourg 🇱🇺 🇭🇷
Soon, very soon 😀
Nicely done! Holly is a delightful wood for turning. Thanks for the video. Like the quiet operation of your production lathe.
Me to😄
Beautiful! I really like the natural inclusions being left in place.
That was a fun change, beautiful results to be sure! Thanks so much for showing that notch function in your scraper!
I was a little surprised to see you cutting off such smaller pieces of the holly, do you do pen turning and such as well or to those smaller pieces get added to segmented projects?
I've some holly that was cut down 3 months ago so next year before I use it. Just hope if it looks anything like yours I'll be really happy
A very nice piece Tomislav. CA and Coffee Grounds fixes a lot of problems without trying to hide, but enhances the beauty. It's a shame so much is lost in the cutting to blanks.
I use a lot of coffee and CA and coffee and 5 minute epoxy. Nothing else I've tried looks and finishes as good.
Halving the log while it is green and removing the pith in the process, then sealing helps to eliminate so many splits during drying.
Best working wood....... I haven't turned them yet, only used em with flat work; but Boxwood or Pear are the best working woods I've used 😁
True,pear is another one great to work with
I got some holly from a friend. Wondering why it didn't look terribly white, I did some research - apparently to get the perfect white timber you need to kiln dry it immediately after felling or a characteristic fungus turns it to that greying off-white.
Thanks for clarifing that, I was thinking why its not as white as it should be 😀
Tomislav, how large of a bowl blank are you comfortable turning on your screw chuck. I understand the quality of the wood will be a factor. I am not an aggressive turner like you, but I love to watch you do your magic. I bought me a dedicated worm chuck like you and Richard have and am really enjoying it.
Good question,I have turned 16inch with that screw Chuck, a backer piece is important as well, put bigger diameter plywood or mdf and it Works to reduce screw as well..... If the wood is flat enough on the screw hole side it will hold up to 20inch with let say bigger backer without much issue....
Do you have an online store that I can look at? I really enjoy watching your videos.
Its almost finished and up and running, just a few small things ... I'll announs it very Shortly
Hi again Tomislav, can you please tell me where I can buy one of your signature refiners please?
It will be available on my website very soon, still working on website and bussiness side of things
I'll announs it very Shortly
Stinky wood. Not fun. I turned some green (not dried) elm a while back. It smelled like a portable bathroom at a football game. I managed to turn one bowl but decided the rest of the elm wood that I had cut would be better off far, far away. 😄
I've turned a lot of elm and never noticed the smell. But most of what I turned was quite dry. Elm is very versatile and has nice grain. Might be a different kind of elm?
