Hi 👋, Peggy , Happy New year 🥳 to you Peggy and to All that is watching, A beautiful looking plater , Very enjoyable watching you turn it. PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE.
As soon as I get my home built, And I by a Lathe..LOL. I want to make a large lazy susan for my dining table. You Inspired that Idea from this video. Thank You!!!
I just had a huge butternut tree come down across my laneway. I have yet to cut it up into bowl blanks, but I might have to try some platters too. That's gorgeous!
I missed the first video on the butternut but will check it shortly. I was lucky enough to have a local guy ( No Berwick / Lebanon ) give me a piece nearly identical to that. I was there picking up some maple as well as other things he thought were junk. Not to a turner ! Anyway that was late fall and said he had a bunch of butternut suddenly coming out of Kennebunk and Kennebunkport late this past summer. Big old trees I guess. Plate looks great can’t wait to try it myself !
Looks good--I do agree with you. That is pretty wood. I do appreciate the way you explain what’s going on as you go. I am a newbie I have not had my lathe six months yet. But I am enjoying learning how to be a lot. Better soon.
What a wonderful way to end the video -- A beautiful smile from Maine. That is a striking beautiful plate. The Butternut does give off a golden glow. You are truly a naturally talented artist that has found her calling. Just beautiful.
The butternut wood looks great. If you get a chance to turn some Pecan wood , do it. that wood is beautiful and so is Eucalyptus , which you find some times down there in your Florida store
Something I’ve done to make sure the chuck jaws fit when I reverse mount the piece is to mark the tool rest with a marker showing the center and the location of both sides of the jaws fully expanded and completely closed. This way, I have a quick way to measure the mortise or tenon to see if it fits the chuck.
Beautiful platter Peggy! Love the grain and the overall look. As someone new to turning, I was very impressed watching you deal with a blank that size! On a more personal note, I would like to thank you for all you do for those suffering with Dementia. My wife has FTD so it is a cause dear to my heart! Great having you back, love your work 🙏🏼🤠
Easy to see why you talked about the glow of the wood. Even before the Acks, it really did have that glow. The grain is astounding. As others have said, once again, congrats on another beautiful piece. So good to have you back,
Beautiful work Peggy 👏! The defects gave this piece some really nice character in my opinion. Can't wait until I'm able to turn something that size. Hopefully I'll get a lathe upgrade this year some time. Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!
When I come to your place for Thanksgiving dinner, that's my plate. Don't worry, I cook. And a beautiful plate it is. Butternut has such a mellow quality about it. This is the first of your videos that I've come across. Could I suggest you give us a little more explanation of your process. Everyone does things a bit differently and if we don't know just what you're doing, we can't copy it. And that, they say (you know they, them, the others) is the sincerest form of flattery. Looking forward to your next video with best wishes from frigid NH.
The butternut platter turned out great! Excellent job! I always appreciate your commentary. Thank you. I just lost a cousin to dementia issues, thank you for all you fo for that cause. Much appreciated.
Wood is full of surprises which makes wood turning so interesting. You think you can see the shape from the outside but the wood usually has the last word. Nice work 👌
I wish I could get Butternut here in GA. What a beautiful platter Peggy. I usually turn Pecan as it is abundant here. It never fails to reveal its beauty.
You always do some amazing work you take your time you do just some fantastic woodwork keep up the good work still praying for you and that was beautiful
That be a pretty pretty plate - I do like butternut. I got a bunch of rough slabbed butternut years ago from a fellow in WVa that I used to make our dining room table ... It isn't native to my area either - don't think that info is of any help to you just my early morning pratter. Glad to be seeing your demos again!!
Glad to see you again, hope you are healing well. Wishing you a Happy New year, and lots of good health. Butternut grain is outstanding, body paint is as well.
Gorgeous piece, Peggy! Every time I see someone working butternut and getting beautiful results, it makes me want to cut down the butternut tree in my back yard. Nowhere near the size of the tree that blank came from, but it might have some decent bowls in it. (I'm about 1.5 hours drive north of you, by the way)
That came out great Peggy, with a few small challenges, but that's what makes it fun. If you wanted a more natural colour for the fill material, you could give Coffee Grounds a try, with clear CA, I've done that on a few pieces as it matched more closely to the colour of the timber, and it makes it hard to even pick where it was used. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice Peggy. I love how thin it is on the edges and the color is beautiful. What type of Total Boat resin are you using? Looking forward to your next project. Happy New Year!
Great platter Peggy. You did a great job with it. I’m curious about that one screw hole. Why didn’t you just turn it away? Too thin? Regardless, the platter is beautiful. I agree with you that butternut is beautiful wood. Had a good bit in the early days, but haven’t seen it available in a long time. Great stuff.
Love the butternut wood. Turned out to be a great success. How well does the Ack's products wear over time? Lots of the easy and quick finishes do not last especially with washing after use. I make bowls to use and not put on a shelf for decoration. Thank you for your input. looking forward to your next project.
Hi, I just wanted to add to one comment. I love the work you do here but this is more of a Cesery for your shop. You don’t have to necessarily have to buy a big vacuum, but you can use a shop vac that you can pick up at Lowe’s or Home Depot And use it to vacuum when you sand use it to vacuum the dust it’ll help keep a lot of your shop clean and also if you can get a separator that goes over 5 gallon trash can you get those at the woodworking store like Rockler and help keep a lot of the stuff out of the vacuum itself just my one little insight. Appreciate everything you do looks wonderful like a lot of work.
I wonder if that Acks paste would work well on a piece that isn’t turned…. I mean to say a flat piece of wood like a shelf or tabletop or desktop…..? Thank you. That plate is beautiful!
Beautiful plate (platter?). The butternut is a nice change, but I'm a fan of the Maine maple you turn, it's got gorgeous grain. Can the bark be saved in those inclusions by flooding it with CA? Clearly, the epoxy went all the way through to the top of the bowl.
Awesome job. Really like your videos . Where do you source your lumber from? Seams as if the figure fairy landed somewhere near them all. Thank you for sharing
Very nice, large plate! I love the imperfection in the middle, it’s truly simple and elegant. Great job! Bravo!
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi 👋, Peggy , Happy New year 🥳 to you Peggy and to All that is watching, A beautiful looking plater , Very enjoyable watching you turn it.
PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE.
Thanks so much 😊 Hello to the dark side of the moulin France!!
As soon as I get my home built, And I by a Lathe..LOL. I want to make a large lazy susan for my dining table. You Inspired that Idea from this video. Thank You!!!
That is awesome!
Looks great, Peggy. That was a beast.
Bill

Table for 12…… Oh my what a big platter you have 😮 Now when’s the party and what’s for dinner 😊
Very nice!
Thank you 😋
I enjoyed that, Peggy. You turned a lovely plate and I thank you for sharing. Peace out 🌞
Thanks for watching!
Awesome plate, it needs a big T Bone steak 🥩 in it. Thanks for sharing Peggy so good to see you. ✌🏼❤️🌹
Yes it does!
I just had a huge butternut tree come down across my laneway. I have yet to cut it up into bowl blanks, but I might have to try some platters too. That's gorgeous!
Cool, have fun turning!
Nice platter Peggy! The black resin & CA were the right colors for fixing the inclusion and cracks. Cheers,
Stuart
👍🏻✌️😎
Great stuff Peggy. Thanks for your video and commentary.
Thank you kindly!
super size nice piece. butternut has very nice wood grains and shades of brownish colors.
😎✌️

Nice!!! I didn't know there was any in Kennebunk!
Nice video and great results. Thank you for not adding music.
Glad you liked it!
Lovely big chunk of wood and grain really popped towards the end 👍
Thanks 👍
nice job Peggy, Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
Good job! I like the butternut
Me too!
Its 0.10 am here in Belgium, but i watch quickly the video anyway.
Thanks for watching.
...nice work saving this piece as it turned out gorgeous!...👍
Matt
Thank you! Cheers!
Even at the early stages the beauty is apparent.
😎
Peg, you did a great job with the Maple, it's hard stuff, but looks good when finished, I also love Acks..
.
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous piece! Acks is an amazing product. I got my hands on some for a few pieces I made for my best friend and his wife.
Right on!
Beautiful work and great to see you back.
Thanks!
Looks good--I do agree with you. That is pretty wood. I do appreciate the way you explain what’s going on as you go. I am a newbie I have not had my lathe six months yet. But I am enjoying learning how to be a lot. Better soon.
Cool, thanks!
I love it. Nice job Peggy.
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow that is one big beautiful plate Love your work
Thank you so much 🤗
I recently turned 2 Butternut bowls and they did turn out nice but I was surprised at how hard this wood was. Nice video
Thank you!
What a wonderful way to end the video -- A beautiful smile from Maine.
That is a striking beautiful plate. The Butternut does give off a golden glow.
You are truly a naturally talented artist that has found her calling.
Just beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks Todd!
Nice platter good job
Thank you 😋
The butternut wood looks great. If you get a chance to turn some Pecan wood , do it. that wood is beautiful and so is Eucalyptus , which you find some times down there in your Florida store
Great suggestion! I'll look for some Pecan and Eucalyptus
Lovely piece Peggy like it alot .
Thanks so much 😊
bonne et heureuse année Peggy et surtout bonne continuation d un tourneur sur bois patrick
Thank you! Happy New Year to you!
Beautiful Platter. Thank you for sharing. Peace out
✌️
Good morning miss p that's a big piece there looks nice good job
Thank you so much 🤗
I have turned butternut on my pole lathe and found it tears out really easy!
Oh. Bummer.
Something I’ve done to make sure the chuck jaws fit when I reverse mount the piece is to mark the tool rest with a marker showing the center and the location of both sides of the jaws fully expanded and completely closed. This way, I have a quick way to measure the mortise or tenon to see if it fits the chuck.
Good point.
Beautiful platter Peggy! Love the grain and the overall look. As someone new to turning, I was very impressed watching you deal with a blank that size! On a more personal note, I would like to thank you for all you do for those suffering with Dementia. My wife has FTD so it is a cause dear to my heart! Great having you back, love your work 🙏🏼🤠
Thanks, Randy. It's a tough diagnosis, hard on the person and family and friends. There is nothing easy about it. Thinking of you and your wife.
I have done carvings with Butternut but never turned. Something to add to my bucket list
Cool!
Easy to see why you talked about the glow of the wood. Even before the Acks, it really did have that glow. The grain is astounding. As others have said, once again, congrats on another beautiful piece. So good to have you back,
Thanks 👍
Looks good, Peggy.
Thanks so much
Nice Work, Peggy!
Thank you! Cheers!
That turned out beautiful as usual Peggy! 👍🏻 That place in the middle gives it a little character! Thank you for sharing! ✌️
Yes, it does. Thanks!
Hopefully one day I'll be half as good as you are. Great job on the piece 👌
Thank you!
Beautiful work Peggy 👏! The defects gave this piece some really nice character in my opinion. Can't wait until I'm able to turn something that size. Hopefully I'll get a lathe upgrade this year some time. Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!
Cool, hope you do! Happy turning!

Hello in NH! Thanks for watching!
First time seeing your video,enjoyed it,I’ve been turning a few things always trying to learn more,thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Very nice Peggy
Thank you! Cheers!
The butternut platter turned out great! Excellent job! I always appreciate your commentary. Thank you. I just lost a cousin to dementia issues, thank you for all you fo for that cause. Much appreciated.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My condolences.
Great looking platter
Thank you 😋
What a thing of beauty. I have been given about 20 pieces of butternut this past summer. I cannot wait to start into the pile.
Nice!!! Happy turning!
Wood is full of surprises which makes wood turning so interesting. You think you can see the shape from the outside but the wood usually has the last word. Nice work 👌
Great point!
Love the products! definitely use Ack's, Starbond and Total Boat so far! Thanks
Glad you like them!
Lovely job on the butternut platter it will look great full of dainties! Thanks!
Cheers Al
Thanks so much! 😊
Nice job on a very pretty plate.
Thank you! 😊
I wish I could get Butternut here in GA. What a beautiful platter Peggy. I usually turn Pecan as it is abundant here. It never fails to reveal its beauty.
Thanks, I've heard Pecan is beautiful too.
Great work Peggy 👏 I'm going to do more platters this year I hope you have a wonderful 2023
Thank you! You too!
Модам, вы меня просто удивляете, редко можно увидеть женщину за токарным станком по дереву, здоровья вам и успехов в вашем творчестве!!!!!
Thank you for watching!
The Butternut is beautiful. I believe that is more platter size rather than plate. You always do such great work. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Thanks so much 😊
Hi Peggy. It has been a long time but you're still turning some awesome projects.
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous, absolutely awesome job Peggy.
Thank you! Cheers!
It turned out beautiful in spite of the bark inclusion Peggy. Unfortunately butternut does grow in my area either. Ottawa Canada.
Thanks for sharing!
Elegant! And you are right,the Ack’s finish is just right. 👍
Thank you! 😊
Church collection plate, nice plate.
👍🏻✌️
Nice work on that platter. Love the shape, thinness, wood choice and grain.
Thanks 👍
VERY LOVELY WORK🤓
Thanks a lot 😊
You always do some amazing work you take your time you do just some fantastic woodwork keep up the good work still praying for you and that was beautiful
Thank you very much!
Excellent job as always Peggy that Really came out Beautiful.
Thanks so much 😊
That be a pretty pretty plate - I do like butternut. I got a bunch of rough slabbed butternut years ago from a fellow in WVa that I used to make our dining room table ... It isn't native to my area either - don't think that info is of any help to you just my early morning pratter. Glad to be seeing your demos again!!
Very cool! Thanks for watching. ✌️
As always peggy great job ...love the size and shape of platter.
Thanks so much 😊
Awesome work! Love the butternut grain and color I've never seen it before.
Thank you! Cheers!
Glad to see you again, hope you are healing well. Wishing you a Happy New year, and lots of good health. Butternut grain is outstanding, body paint is as well.
Thanks, Mark!
Good job Peg. You just keep getting better and better! You’re a pleasure to follow!
God bless!
Thank you so much!
Great vid great piece
Thank you kindly
Really pretty plate, Peggy! I love it! 💜

Nice. Well, howdy neighbor! I didn't know there was any butternut growing in Maine. Learn something new everyday!
Looks beautiful.
Thank you!
Thanks for the inspiration! Beautiful plate. I really appreciate you!
Thank you so much!
Great video Peggy. I enjoyed it. Beautiful plate.... 👍
Thanks so much 😊
Very beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video as was the paste demo. They are lucky to have you as an agent. I’ve been looking for a great plater video and you nailed it.
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful

Very nice Peggy. I love how thin it is on the edges and the color is beautiful. What type of Total Boat resin are you using? Looking forward to your next project. Happy New Year!
Total Boat High Performance Medium
Very BEAUTIFUL, I've never seen butternut wood before, what area of the country does it come from.
Great platter Peggy. You did a great job with it. I’m curious about that one screw hole. Why didn’t you just turn it away? Too thin? Regardless, the platter is beautiful.
I agree with you that butternut is beautiful wood. Had a good bit in the early days, but haven’t seen it available in a long time. Great stuff.

I make bowls to use and not put on a shelf for decoration. Thank you for your input. looking forward to your next project.
The Ack's lasts over time. And when you do need to reapply, it just takes a tiny bit.
Who needs to measure?! :D We love you regardless, very nice work! :)
Thank you! 😊

Thanks. Yes, the Ack's works on non-woodturned items as well.
Nice job it looks really nice keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!

Thanks 👍 The bark could probably be saved with a CA glue flood, I've done that before too.
Great looking plate!
Thank you 😋
you look great oxo
Thanks.
I’m with you, I hardly ever measure my mortises…
👍🏻😎
Plz wear gloves,safety first.fantastic work and the amazing sense of humour is a bonus😊
Thanks for watching.
Awesome job. Really like your videos . Where do you source your lumber from? Seams as if the figure fairy landed somewhere near them all. Thank you for sharing
Thanks. Mostly local. Some online.
