- I have done this video in little different format to change a bit and I find it little more helpfull for someone who just started turning wood....
I'm curious what your thoughts are on voice over although I need to buy dedicated mic for voice over to make it sound little clearer....
I know many new turners fear of natural edge bowls but I do hope that this video will help you out on your journey...
Thank you
Enjoy. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Great video and commentary as you went along.
I learned much from this.
I am happy that I don't need that many hours to mastery! I'm 75 years old and I may not have 10,000 hours left.
Thank you,You have much more time then 10,000hours so take your time 🤗
Thank you for watching
I’ve said the same thing before. I’m 75 next week 🌞
@@raydriver7300 Happy birthday and many more!
@@rogertulk8607 Thank you, Roger. And you 🌞
@rogertulk8607 I am 72 and I know what you mean…plus I am a woman so the odds are against me. My father had a lathe. We sold it when he died 40 yrs ago, but now I wish I had known how great learning to turn would have been
When you mentioned about the fungus creating the spalting it reminded me of something I've always wanted to try. I read an article in an old Australian wood worker magazine my father used to collect, memory's foggy on it but in short they buried a burl in a plastic bag partially filled yogurt enough to cover the whole burl once closed up, and left it buried for so many weeks. That brought out some amazing coloring throughout grain on the bowl in the end.
truly enjoy your vidios and the format. Possibly you might share some recommendations on using the microwave for drying?
Love the bowl. The grain and spalting accent the randomness of the bowl! Nothing on the planet is as powerful as random!
Thank you Richard
That is beautiful wood! I've seen people try to recreate a bark-like look by burning the edge of the bowl with a torch. The natural curves of the edge add character without the bark or color. As always, I appreciate your hints and educational comments as you turn because I am that beginner you're talking about!
Thank you very much
Spalting is simple. Introduce the spalt fungus via chips and shavings, create any composting environment. This can be as simple as burying a piece of wood in a woodchip pile and cover it with grass clippings and don't let it get too dry. Green grass clippings will speed up the process faster than anything else. If possible, rotate your wood every 2-4 weeks. Great video. Thanks.
Very beautiful bowl! Your videos are a must watch whether you’re a beginner or not. Thanks!!!
Thank you very much 😀
Appreciate the voice over with tips describing the techniques that you are using.
Awsome, thank you for watching
Love your work Tomislav always a pleasure to see a true craftsman making beautiful results. You also explain the process very well too.
Thank you very much 😀
That's a lovely bowl. Very nice instructive video. I think the format will work well for some videos, but there's also something nice about a running commentary with live 'design opportunities. I do like a good bit of elm, always makes me think of George Lailey. Thanks for another educational and entertaining video.
I had to look up who George was and now I want to find more , its quite interesting story ....
Thank you Joris for watching
Beautiful bowl tomislav and another master class thanks for sharing,
Kind regards From Will 👍 😊
Thank you Will
An excellent tutorial producing a beautiful bowl. Thank you for sharing 🌞
Beautiful piece, love the spalting. Too bad the bark didn't hold on.
That grain is awesome! I like how it came out wavy from the way you mounted it. Cool piece!
Beautiful bowl and excellent explanation of how you went about making this. Geoff
Thank you Geoff
Now, that's my kind of bowl! Thanks.
Beautiful bowl and very clean tool work. I especially liked the commentary, thanks for sharing your work
Glad you like it 😀 thank you
I agree, such a beautiful bowl. I always like hearing about the process and reasoning as you turn. Now I am turning myself I can relate to it much more, and pick out finer details to improve on.
Thank you Rachel,really appriciate that
Your bowl has handsome figure and shape. I like the natural edge and enjoy turning them when the blanks permit. I have not heard of your "homemade spalting" method and I'll try when I get some green wood. The oil finish looks good on this piece. I'm in rut; I usually use shellac and/or wipe-on polyurethane. I need to try some better oil finish products.
Thank you sir for kind words.
Poly and shellac are great finish but I would use those on stuff like pepper mill, boxes,urns , for bowls me personally find oils to be more frendly
Nice video, very informative. I was in Crociata last Fall, what a beautiful place.
Beautiful bowl! As always, your video was full of useful tips …. Hopefully as time goes on I will have a chance to try and put them all to use 🤠🇨🇱
Thank you Randy,I hope so as well 😀 , nothing without practice
5:27 this cut is the one that fascinates me in all videos I watch. I could watch it being done for hours😊
Thank you ☺️
Thank you for sharing your talent. You have a new subscriber. God bless.
Well done. The bowl came out beautiful. It was good to see and hear that you wanted it pretty even in thickness from top to bottom. Great piece!
Thank you Doug😉
You details and explanation of the complete turning is very helpful.
Beautiful finished art
Thank you sir
A beautiful piece of elm and, beautifully executed.
Thank you
Beautiful grain Tomislav
Perfect once again! 👍🏼
Thank you for the content.
Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful bowl.
Beautiful bowl sir!!
Great looking bowl.
Phil, get yourself a piece of sycamore and turn yourself a cup or bowl to set inside the branch.
I'm not Phil, you must have comment on the wrong video👍
You do a fantastic job describing tool techniques. Would love to see some videos where you really focus on those details - handle orientation, start of cut, tool path, tool rotation, etc.
Thank you, I'll do my best for those topics
Great tutorial. Thanks
Thank you
That is a great looking piece of timber. Nice work.
Beautiful bowl Tomislav.
I’m finding a bunch of dead elm trees on my wooded property. They have all pretty much shed every bit of their bark. Apparently a characteristic of elm. Cross grain bowls show neat almost geometric fine grain moire like patterns. Great firewood and super clean without the bark, but thought to be harder to split.
Love spalted wood. Great bowl
The bowl turned out beautifully! Nicely done! Also thank you for sharing your expertise and experience.
Thank you Johnny ☺️
spalted is always fun ..you never know what you will find... good one tom.
Thank you
Gorgeous bowl, turned beautifully. Thank you for sharing 👍
Thank you for watching
What a beautiful piece of elm and a gorgeous bowl. I loved this format, and I also love hearing the lathe and the tools cut/scrape the wood. This was very informative. Thank you.
lovely shaped bowl and grain pattern,,, fine work 👍
Thank you
Great explanation of using a recess to hold from the inside of the bowl.
Your videos are always very well done! Thanks
Thank you very much 😀
🕶nice bowl Tomislav. Thanks for the time and effort.
No worries, thank you Steven
I never get tired of seeing what hides inside the wood! Would love to know your ongoing thoughts about pricing and sizes. You did an entire video on it a few months back and it was very helpful. What would you typically sell a piece like this one for? Love the voiceover btw!!
Thank you very much, its always a surprise what we find inside...
Well this perticular bowl would go from 80-100$....
Love that shape the spalting is amazing too
Very nice a beautiful bowl, great information thanks.
Another great video filled with advise I think you are the busiest turner on youtube cheers
Thank you very much 🤗
Nice job as always keep it up
Really nice. Never turned elm. 😊
beautiful
Such a beautiful bowl, that grain is great. Thank you for sharing.
Thank You for watching
Wonderful video. One of your best.
Thank you sir
Tremendous bowl Tommi.
Loved the voice over, but there is nothing wrong with your normal videos either..
I’ve also found that leaving a piece of wood in a bag for 6 to 9 months really does make the spalting work well. Particularly on paler woods.
Thanks Tommi.
Thank you Greg for feedback and comment 😀 I really appriciate that
As usual, beautiful work and great tips as well. I have a log of spalted water oak that is just right for turning. I will use some of the tips from this video to try and improve my surface finish for less sanding. Thanks for the great vid.
Thank you for watching
First time seeing your work. Very nice bowl. I will look forward to watching more of you videos.
Thanks
Really glad to hear that,thank you for watching and support what I do 🤗
Enjoy your videos.
Thank you,glad to hear that
Great video ❤
Thank you
It was so beautiful. Your hands have a great control sir. Seeing that continuous moves were just fantastic. I'm planning to buy a lethe and start woodturning soon! Thanks for this beautiful video. Just subbed!
Thank you very much, I really appriciate support
An excellent demonstration & well presented Tomislav
Thank you,glad you liked it 👍
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Good info with turning.
Thank you
Nice wood, nice design, nice presentation.
Thank you for feedback
Another well informed video Tomislav, Thanks for the voice over, it really helps in determining what you are doing, Nice work!!
Thank you sir
Very nice !
Do you get a warp in the foot when you do this ? I usually have to fix the foot
I do usually but this elm really doesn't wanna warp as much....so this one is quite good but if it was warped I just put some 240 on the flat surface and pull the bowl a few times👍,that usually takes care of that...
Love the video good❤
Great video buddy. I like the format and it's how I generally like to do my videos. I don't say a whole lot as I'm turning so I like to fill the void with the voice over. I'm watching on my phone with no headphones and your audio sounds great. I'll see how it sounds tonight on my TV. I watch TH-cam those twobways.
Thank you, I'll appriciate the feed back👍
@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning sounds great on TV too
Nice Elm live edge bowl. I have many things in common with your methods of work. I'd like to add my opinion so you get a little feedback on the new dubbed format. I know you can add things you may not have thought of afterwards to cover certain aspects of your the process, but generally I prefer a more natural and spontaneous talking as you go approach, or full on live demos.
Thank you very much for input and feedback,I really appriciate that ☺️
Great video and great result. As you asking thoughts on voice: You clearly need to drink more coffee in between your explanations. Don't forget to lubricate your vocal cords!
Thanks for advice, I have to use something else as I usually work late hours😀
Nice video, learnt a lot in this one, thanks, especially on how to introduce the spalting by using a plastic bag on the green wood. Do you keep checking it every now and then to see how the effect is progressing? Thanks again Tomislav.
Great video, as always! Did I understand correctly that the spalting was only from the months you kept it in the bag, or was there some already visible when you were cutting the blanks? The reason I ask is that I have had a hard time getting spalting after processing a log into parts and have relied on leaving longer sections, in the round, outside to get the effect I am looking for. Of course, the problem is that it is very difficult to control (or know) the rate that the fungus is working and avoid letting it go too far.
This blank was as you see in beginning of the video just cut with chainsaw, and I put it just like that in plastic.... If you have some fungus you can add them in bag as well, should help out.... But its nature process so sometimes we can't really control it.... I have had log go to rot very quick and then from same species it took months and months to get some spalting if any.... So I do this from time to time ,each time slighty different way to see what works....
@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Thank you for explaining. I have noticed the same thing where same species, even different sections of the same tree, will spalt and begin to decay at very different rates while stacked next to each other in the yard. I think I will try some inside in bags just to see if I can figure out some of the variables.
Where I live, we have very limited tree species, and our only real hardwood option is paper birch. I love birch, but it tends to lack character without spalting or some substantial figure.
Thanks again and peace to you, my brother.
Thanks!
Thank you sir very much,I really appriciate your support... Thank you
Tom, you do nice work!!! What was you finished size hight & width, Tha KS again
Thank you very much 🤗
Its around 205mm diameter and almost 150mm deep
Nice bowl. I'm assuming that you would have removed the tail stock and rotated the bowl on the temporary mortice to align the high and low points of the natural edge. I'll give that a go as doing it with the full weight on alive centre is a pain to move 1mm. Hopefully my standard jaws should be long enough.
Indeed,I should have shown that but now I have topic for another video 😀
Thank you for watching Chris
I thought the sound quality of your voiceover was good, Tomi. Easily understood with no distortion. Keep it simple.
Thank you Mike👍
Hello Tommy, another wonderful video, it’s really pretty. Is this a grinder that you use as a sander?
Thank you, nope its angle drill from makita
Wonderful as always. What was the oil finish you used please?
Thank you
Its linseed oil with waxes from Steinert Germany
Спасибо, Томислав! Очень люблю вяз, прекрасная древесина. И видео очень информативно, спасибо. Ты в данном случае точишь не совсем сухую древесину. Сушка в микроволновке наверняка приведёт к движению древесины? Для чаши с живым краем это не особенно актуально, форма скроет все деформации. Но ведь на стандартной утилитарной чаше это будет очень видно?
Yes, using microwave will most likely distort the 'regular' bowl but that is usually something I want.... You can put rough out bowl in microwave as well but be carefull how you use it as it can make cracks and Splits if you are not carefull
I wanted to ask if you put the Ellsworth grind on your spindle gouge or just the standard grind TIA
Iam new to wood turning and had to turn some pieces for an old vitorian safe restauration. Got me hooked up on woodturning and you are an amazing crafsman. What oil would you recomend for salad bowls? That is food safe ofcourse. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Hi
Well anything 'food safe' that is available to you. My personal preference is pure Tung oil with citrus solvent (orange Peel solvent,food grade) Works and smells beautiful
@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Thank you so much for the fast anser. I have searched for tung oil with citrus but can't find it. If you could share a name or brand. Thanks again.
@@mikefreitas1331 oldfashionedmilkpaint.co.uk/products/sweet-pickins-pure-tung-blend?_pos=2&_sid=4e4a04f94&_ss=r
This one is great
@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning no doubt... you are the Best!!! Can thank you enough. Let's just see if they ship to portugal -Madeira Island
It does not take that long, if you think things through, learning goes fast. What takes longer is learning what kind of wood does what, because you have to turn a lot of it to find out what it will do !
Zašto sanding kad je tvoj finish perfektan? :)
Hvala za ove videos, uvjek se ima nešto dobro naučit.
Hvala puno👍
Good wokilng
Where did you get the spear point scraper from?
From Crown tools,I believe they have dedicated spear point scraper but I convert mine from square end scraper
I use push cuts 85% of the time.
Thats ok, but in my opinion not nessesary.... But that is the beauty of turning, we all turn different
wow
lijep pozdrav iz Bosne i Hercegovine.radujem se svakom videu jer volim tokarenje i rad na strugu ali sam potpuno slijepa osoba to što radite nešto saznam iz komentara ili da mi neko pogleda .da uradite više videa na Hrvatskom .na face boku imate pogledati kako radim Mufid Kozlić.volio bih da mi se javite na mesenger.pozdrav
Pozdrav Mufid, nazalost videi na hrvatskom nisu toliko uspješni te cesto ih ljudi na nasim prostorima krivo shvacaju pa nemam neku zelju objasnjavati ili dokazivati takvima.... medutim uskoro budem napravio i na hrvatskom nekoliko videa, mozda pomogne nekome...
Vidio sam vas profil,kapa dolje ,svaka čast....
Thanks Tomislav. Nice bowl. Recently I worked some spalted beech and really enjoyed all the colors from the spalting. Except for the smell. That I don't like. 🫢
Aaaa yes, the smell isn't great but its worth it 😀
