Thank you Gao! Yes I ended up with 2 revisions and this is the one I was going to do first but made the other one because I needed it and took less time. Take care, Gary
Thank you very much. I think this was the best use for this piece that I could have done. I thought about making segments out of it but this really shows off the burl. Thanks for watching, Gary
Thank you Mark. I have to say even though this came off the burl bowl I have sitting on the coffee table this one just seems to have nicer burl. But when you think about it all the burl came from the same 1" section of the piece. Thanks for watching, Gary
Hi, Gary. You know I love the burls. That is a great way to use some of the leftovers from other projects. I give some of my small, highly figured scraps to a friend that uses them for knife handles - no waste! Another fine bowl from your shop! Thanks for another excellent tutorial on ring-stacking for maximum utilization. Take care, --Paul
Thank you Paul. With all the burls you have I bet you have lots of scraps that can be used. Segments would be another good use for leftovers. Thanks for watching, Gary
Quick and simple you said? I don't agree, but you're the proven master! It was great pleasure for me following all the steps you went through and that bowl is so beautiful. Thank you. Best,
Thank you very much. I guess compared to what I have tomorrow this was pretty quick and simple. Hope you watch and enjoy it. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Take care, Gary
Thanks Chris. For sure it sometimes takes that first coat to reveal what you have. I have a feeling the piece I have in the lathe right now will do the same. At least I hope so. Take care, Gary
Thanks a million, I just picked up a nice burl but I sold my lathe. You gave me the idea of cutting a slab off and I will use the scroll saw to make a bowl with the stacking technique. Thanks for the inspiration! Paul
Thank you Paul. I see no reason why you will not be able to do that. Might take a little sanding to blend it in but that can be done. Thanks for watching, Gary
Thank you very much Susan. I have a number of videos where geometry is what makes the shape. I am currently working on another which is very exciting. It will be in a few weeks so I hope you watch for it. Thanks for watching, Gary
Gary, this is one beautiful bowl. What a great use for a gorgeous piece of burl. When I use my press, I found that by putting a wheel bearing (any autopart store) on top of the work, it is unmoved by the twisting action of the press as I tighten it. How I wish I had a piece of scrap like that!
Thank you Josh! The end of my press not only adjust to the fit but it also is free spinning so I do not need a bearing on it. So I have not twisting issues to contend with. But I could see how a bearing could be helpful if needed., I never toss anything away so these scraps will get used at some point. Thanks for watching, Gary
Hi Gary... I really love this method of making a bowl... Very little waste .. you can make a large bowl from a relatively small amount of wood and none of that laborious hollowing out... Great job and a great video as always... awesome Buffalo... Take care...All the best.....Andy
Thank you Andy. Yes it is a good way to use wood. I have been using pictures at the end from trips we have made. I have a picture of a buffalo that walked up to the side of our motorhome and then stood in front of it for a few minutes. Thanks for watching, Gary
Good evening, Gary. I missed this video somewhere along the line and found it tonight. I have several beautiful boards laying around for something special and now I know what they will be used for. The burl looks gorgeous in this bowl. Very nice.
Thank you Ray. I have 2 Walnut boards that are very old. From something I made in high school shop class so for sure they are very old. Still trying to figure out how I want to use them. Maybe segments or maybe a BFB. But I want something even more special. So I will wait.... Thanks for watching, Gary
@@ThePapa1947 I think some of the boards I have will be engraved with a CNC router/laser with the history of the wood. The beauty of the wood along with dates and what it was used for in the past will become the art, the memory, the project. Hoping our health will give us time to complete some of the projects on the shelf. I appreciate your friendship and responses. Ray
That is a good idea Ray. I have to find some pictures of what mind did. It was a TV stand , aquarium stand and a what ever stand for many years. It was a metal wood project in 1963. The metal part is long gone. Always happy to help a fellow soldier who severed where I did doing the same thing I did. Take care my friend, Gary
Trying to say that after 3 bottles of Hobgoblin ale ......you're having a laugh aren't you ..😉seriously though mate it was a lovely save from the fire . Wouldn't know it was joined together if any one hadn't watched the video. Superb job Gary and absolutely love it ! Cheers, Bram
Thank you Bram...on my first take I stubbled all over trying to say it. That was without 3 bottles of anything LOL. Thanks for watching my friend! Cheers, Gary
Again, not surprised, great job Gary. I had seen your parting tool guide before and had thought of making one and forgot. Now that I see it again, I'll take note to make one. Excellent idea.
Thank you Damiano! I have noticed that after I first made the jig there are a lot of turners cutting the rings on the lathe instead of the bandsaw. I find it so much easier to do. If you have not seen them I have 2 videos showing how I make the ring cutting jig. I do like the second one better. Take care, Gary
Thank you Leo. A serving platter was one option I thought of. I have another unknown piece of wood about this size that just may become a serving platter. Been wondering what kind of wood it is for years. I found it at a garage sale years ago and have done nothing with it yet. Thanks for watching, Gary
Gary, that piece/the wood used is stunning. It turned out (pun not intended) even better than I was expecting! Thank you also for the ring-cutting demo. I saw another persons video for ring cutting and it is much more involved than this (your approach is much better; in my view).
Thank you very much Grant. I strive to make things easy to do and without a lot of extra thinking. I like to do the thinking but I want to do that before I actually use it. Happy you like my method. Take care, Gary
I took high school geometry many years before TH-cam. I think this video would be a perfect answer to the question “when will I ever use geometry in real life?” I know I enjoyed it today and I would have enjoyed it back then, too! I love seeing burls and I’m so glad you were able to use this burl board to make this bowl. It’s really nice!
I watched the video with a like and the content is very special, very wonderful and very useful, my friend, God bless you, your friend from Egypt, with a full view h
Gary this is an Amazing bowl and working this way a person with little money could produce a bowl quit cheaply but still use what would be an expensive wood if using a solid blank
I enjoy woodturning myself but I'm only an amateur. I am truly amazed by your imagination and ability. You turned a beautiful masterpiece, which has inspired me. This shows me that with a little imagination you can do wonders. Thank you ever so much mate.
I always so enjoy your projects. To spend a couple weeks under your tutelage would be such a blessing. Thx for sharing.
Thank you very much Rick!

Thank you Grammy Bear❤👍👌
Bodaciously beautiful burl board bowl. Bravo! 👍
Thank you. I was very happy with how it turned out.
It’s amazing to see a flat piece of wood turn into a bowl. It’s like you took the piece of wood and shook it and a bowl fell out.
Thank you Ronnie, happy you enjoyed it.
Gary
Very nice looking bowl thanks for your video 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you very much Graham and thanks for watching.
Gary
Gary, I have said it before you are a master. You make it look so easy. What a beautiful burl bowl.
Thanks so much Kevin! I do appreciate your comments.
Take care,
Gary
Lovely bowl. What amazes me is how a flat piece of wood can become a bowl.
Thank you Fran. Yes it is a pretty cool way to use a piece of wood.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful Burl bowl! Great save Gary. 👍🇺🇸
Thanks so much! Happy you liked it.
Gary
Wow, Gary, you upgraded the jig, it's efficient and more convenient, great design，👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Gao! Yes I ended up with 2 revisions and this is the one I was going to do first but made the other one because I needed it and took less time.
Take care,
Gary
Gary, that is so gorgeous! I love turning burls!
Thank you Carol. Burls are very special.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I love board bowls. I love to watch woodturning, but it often seems there's so much waste. It's great that this was wasn't burned!
Thank you very much. I think this was the best use for this piece that I could have done. I thought about making segments out of it but this really shows off the burl.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
That was a great save from the wood pile. Good looking bowl. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Glen and thanks for watching.
Gary
Beautiful burl made a beautiful bowl, Gary. Great use of that burl slab too. Now fill it up with M&M's (or Skittles), empty it, fill it, etc.
Bill
Thanks so much Bill. That might even be too many M&M's for me LOL
Take care,
Gary

I think it’s great how you take a flat board and make it into a nice bowl.
Thank you Michael! It was a great use of such a pretty burl.
Take care,

Not bad for a remnant 😀. Wow, that is a beautiful piece, that burl is amazing.
Thank you Mark. I have to say even though this came off the burl bowl I have sitting on the coffee table this one just seems to have nicer burl. But when you think about it all the burl came from the same 1" section of the piece.

Wow its stunning, excellent job Mr. Gary
Thanks so much Donald!
Take care,
Gary
Great job Gary! Glad you didn’t fill the worm holes. I love worm holes in my pieces, big and small!
Thank you Michael! Burls are so natural it would have been a shame to fill the worm holes on this piece.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
1st. That is gorgeous Gary and the grain matching looked perfect to me.
Great video as ever my friend.
Take care Gary.
Hwyl, Huw
Thank you Huh! It really is amazing that you can get the grain in something like this to line up decently.
Thanks for watching my friend.
Hwyl,
Gary
Beautiful! Makes me rethink not wanting to do segmented turnings. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Vincent. I enjoy doing both segmented and turning from a piece right off the tree.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Brilliant construction techniques, perfectly executed.
Thank you very much Charlie!
A brilliant video Gary. I learnt a lot from this. It turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing. 👍

beautiful finish! kind of blah until that first coat! great job Gary!
Thanks Chris. For sure it sometimes takes that first coat to reveal what you have. I have a feeling the piece I have in the lathe right now will do the same. At least I hope so.
Take care,
Gary
Nicely done. Better than a platter, I think.
Thank you John. I agree, much better than a platter.

Well I forgot about your jig! Guess I need to eventually make one! Nice piece Gary rock on! ✌🏼💫🪵
Thank you Douglas, I hope you make a jig and have fun using it.
Take care,

Absolutely beautiful Gary love that burl That wood would make a beautiful vase or goblet thanks for sharing 👍 😀
Thank you Tim. For sure it would make a nice vase. I have another large burl that will take some trimming as well.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
Fantastic job Gary
Many thanks Byron!
This is the first time I've seen one of your videos. I love how you made the bowl using geometry. Cool Papa!
Thank you very much Susan. I have a number of videos where geometry is what makes the shape.
I am currently working on another which is very exciting. It will be in a few weeks so I hope you watch for it.
Thanks for watching,

Thanks so much Mike!
That surprised me. I couldn’t imagine how you would get a bowl out of that board but you did. And that burl is lovely!
Thank you Cecilla. I think I like it better than the main part of the burl I turned.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful work Gary thanks for sharing
Thank you Dave and thanks for watching.
