Kerry, you make it look so eeeeaaasy!!! Glad you liked the Gippy Red Gum so much, and thanx for highlighting it by making it your 500th AND showing how you did it. I'll treasure and share the video!! Peter.
Congratulations on #500 and what a beautiful bowl! No one will ever guess it was an old fence post but what a great back ground story. Once again thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and sense of humour. Take care and stay healthy and safe.
Bowl number 500! Congrats, Kezza!! That thing looks fabulous. Just goes to show, one man's old, worn-out fence post is another man's classic bowl. Keep up the good work and the good videos.
The bowl has beautiful figure and color. Your friction wax is also exceptional. Thanks for the black CA tip. I didn't know they made it. I usually rub fine saw dust into the crack and then add the CA. I'm going to give the black CA a shot though.... THANKS! Wakodahatchee Chris
Looking fantastic Kerry. Thanks for the explanation on the minerals, many a time I have walked out of the shop looking black like your hands and arms reminiscing of my landscaping days wondering why I'm looking like that. Especially since I have been turning a fair bit of Blackbutt lately. Totally makes sense, dur. :)
Just before you mentioned importing blanks from the states, i was thinking to myself “i wonder if i could send some of our northern Canadian birch your way?” Great work. Stunning piece.
Thanks so much, mate. I think there might have been a miscommunication with the post office staff. They were just concerned about biosecurity, which I totally get. But as long as all the rules have been followed (no bark, no bugs, etc.), everything should be okay. Cheers for the offer, mate. Kezza
Bonza bowl Mate! 500! Reminds me of paint on paint off, but with each one you do your skills are being honed to a sharp edge. Yeah sending timber from the states to Aussie will mean quarantine in Aussie customs for no-one knows when. Ain’t worth it. One thing we can’t get economically in the USA is banksia seed pods. Someone needs to fill a seatainer with the scoundrels and ship this way. When last I checked 1 single seed pod was US$18! Anyway I digress. Loved watching ya mate! Cheers!
Seems like we need to set up some shipping of the pods, mate. That sounds like a plan. You’re spot on about the bowl turning. Honestly, I feel like the last 100 will be my best. Haha, funny how that works! I was looking at the first batch I made and didn’t really like some of the shapes, so I’ll have to add a heap at the end to make up for it. Cheers, Kez
Good job on the 500 mate and great explanation as always. Im not sure about sending timber via domestic post but i know if its shipped in a container you just pay for the container to be fumigated. Costs a couple hundred dollars. Assume if someone sent you something and declared appropriately they and or you would just pay the appropriate customs duty.
Thanks heaps, mate. Yeah, I’m learning more and more from all the comments. It might have just been a miscommunication with the post office workers. Cheers, Kez
I have a Killinger machine, which is a wood lathe, would you be able to do things like this with it? The model is Killinger KM 6000 S-Hydro. My father left it to me as an inheritance. It has not been used for a long time, but I would like to do some things besides work and privately. Can this machine work? perform this kind of thing, I would like you to answer me, since I don't really have experience in this, but I have a machine, thank you in advance.😊
I did a quick Google search on that machine, and it’s a beauty. Though I’m not too familiar with its manual capabilities, it looks like a copy lathe to me, which is an amazing piece of equipment. I’d suggest starting by doing some research and checking out forums for more information. Sorry I can’t be more specific. Cheers, Kez
Morning, Michael. I'm from Brisbane, and you? This is a mask video I made a while back Best Faceshield for Woodturning. 3m Versaflow. th-cam.com/video/P9vuDtkvOPM/w-d-xo.html Cheers, mate. Kezza
Hey Kerry. About the importation of wood internationally... I was told it had to be pressure treated wood in order to travel over borders. Otherwise, as you said, there's a good chance the timber will have complications... wood infestations of insects, fungi, or any number of plant disease. I recently learned this because i work at a company that just had a bunch of german pine come in as pallets and support beams for new machinery. Great vid, and congrats on #500!
Kerry, you make it look so eeeeaaasy!!! Glad you liked the Gippy Red Gum so much, and thanx for highlighting it by making it your 500th AND showing how you did it. I'll treasure and share the video!!

Thanks again for your support, Peter. Like riding a bike-it's a bit wobbly at the start, but by the 500th ride, it's second nature.
Cheers,
Kezza
Great job! You make product with very nice finish! 😊
@@workshopmasters thank you so much, mate. I appreciate your comment. Sometimes, finishing on an item is all that counts. The last bit.

@@cdrive5757 thanks so much for watching, Chris.
I think it looks nice against the reds of our hardwoods here in Australia.
Cheers,

Beauty! If that is fencepost wood, Australia must have the most luxurious fences in the world! Nice work, Kerry! 👍
It's beautiful timbers down under mate👌🤝
Hard as nails!
Thanks so much, mate.

Congrats on 500
Thank you, Claudette🤝
I like the close up shot of the bb gouge. Thanks.
Thanks for watching. Most of my videos have different angles. I'm a visual learner myself, so I edit them for that style. I hope it helps.

Nice job brother! That is a pretty little piece of timber!
Thank you so much brother. Really appreciate it.

Nice way to round out the 500 mate. Job well don cobber.🤠
Cheers, mate. Really appreciate the support 🤝
Wow! 500 beauties! Very nice. I'm going to try some EEE paste, the finish on that bowl has a beautiful shine. 👏👍
Thanks so much, mate. Really appreciate it. Can't go wrong with triple E and Shellawax cream👌😎
Great job! I was wondering where all these bowls are going and roughly how much you would get/ bowl?
It’s a very special project for Veterans. 🤝

love using EEE and shelawax
Such great Aussie-made products. Heard the owner’s a top bloke as well! 😎😉
Apparently the tennon remains and is part of the design…
That's correct, Nick. Sanded and polished. This is in keeping with the prototype that was chosen for the project.
Cheers,
Kerry
Holding that by hand is REALLY unsafe.....you lucky you still got all your fingers
@@Honeybees2805 is this the first time you have seen this done?
nice but the indentations from the jaws on the tenon would bug the hell out of me
@@ModoBroThe majority of them don’t have any small marks. I’ll go back through and fix the ones that do.
You are right, though. They are frustrating.
