Knotty But Nice! - Wood Turning

- This Norfolk Island Pine bowl is nice and functional, just not what I was expecting. I had seen pieces with beautiful grain and with the branches showing through and that's what I thought I would get with this piece, but it was not to be. Still, a very useful Fruit Bowl or Salad Bowl.

Thank you to Don Lyons for sending the wood along for all to enjoy! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I grinned at your title and smiled at the beautiful bowl. Thank you very much for sharing and see you soon.
I'm glad I could put a smile on your face this morning! Thank you!
Phil
it is beautiful, the wood is very pretty. the wood grain makes the knots look like the head of flower. thank you for sharing
I know, Joyce, I love that part about the flowers! 😊
I like the gray-blue streaks in the wood grain . Well done as always Phil .
Those are the best part of this piece, Jeff! 😄
You are too funny! I was yelling don’t plug it and I never expected you to do it!!! It has Interesting grain and I love the knots. The bowl is a great size. I really like it. Beautiful ❤
Yeah, I never know if I'm going to do something, either! I'm glad you like it, thank you! 😊
I think that it turned very nice!!!!! . Super nice finish!!!!👍👍👍
Thank you, Jack! 😊 Cheers!
Another beautiful bowl. I like a few knots: they add character. French Maritime Pine is a favorite of mine I panelled some walls in my bathroom and washroom with it. Very resinous, giving rich colour, and lots of interesting knots.
Sounds great! 😊
Love the natural rose! Beautiful piece
😊
What a beautiful salad bowl, Phil. Terrific job of turning, my friend. 👍👍
Safe turning,
.....Gord
Thank you, Gord! It's always fun to turn wood you have never turned before.
Phil

Thank you very much, Tomas!
Phil
Another excellent and beautiful finish thank you ✊✊✊✊✊
Thank you! Cheers! 😁
Good evening, Phil.
Wow, end grain can take a lot of sanding. You did an amazing job of finishing this bowl. I have a couple friends who turn mostly Norfolk Island Pine. Well done, my friend.
Thanks 👍 😊
Nice big bowl, glad you put the plug in !
😊
Its PRETTY!! Thanks for sharing.
Wow Phil, end grain , soft wood but still an amazing result. Thanks, as ever, for showing. Jules, Droitwich, England
Awesome Phil awesome that wood is beautiful.
Enjoyed that one. Bowl is really nice!
Glad you enjoyed it, Jim, thank you! 😊
The colors are great. Love it.
Thanks for spending some time with me today, Elizabeth! 😊
“The 🐅 Bowl” ... I kind of see a tiger(ish) pattern. I like it. 💛
Cool, thanks, H D!
One of my favorite Woods to turn
Sent u an email with some pictures
Once again you pulled it off..very nice
Love turning this wood green. It cuts like butter and little or no sanding and the color is more of a yellow. I usually soak in a mixture of linseed oil and mineral spirits. T o get the star in the bottom depends on orientation of the blank. Lovely bowl!!
😊
I voted yes. Plug the hole. The bowl is very beautiful.
I heard you, John. 😃😃 Thank you!
It just goes to show you that pine can be a pretty as another wood. As lathe workers we tend to forget the simple beauty is pine. Especially Knotty pine. I used Knotty pine to put up a half wall in my bedroom and it's simply gorgeous. Thumbs up Phil. Very nice piece for the simple of heart.
Thank you, Nathan! I remember in my early years of woodworking using a lot of Pine because it's all I could afford. As I moved on to other woods, I kind of missed the smell and colorful grain you can get with Pine. Last I used it was for some utility shelves and I remember that great aroma and easy work-ability.
Phil
Looks like monkey puzzle that has branch knots and colours in the wood great to watch again Phil top job
Glad you enjoyed it, Gregg, thank you! 😊
Very beautiful Phil and great job turning it also
Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you very much, Russell!
Phil
Another nice, piece, Phil. Norfolk Island Pine is really pretty stuff.
Billy
Thank you, my friend!
Phil
The knots look like the eyes of peacock feathers to me. That is one cool grain, all gray and cream like that.
Cool, good eye, Nan, thank you! 😊
I LOVE the grey color in that grain combined with the brown knots! Beautiful bowl.
Thank you, Cara, I'm glad you like it!
Phil
I was screaming for no plug. But that would definitely limit its uses, and the plug doesn't really detract from its beauty.
Great video as always.
I heard you, JN, but you were out numbered this time! Keep screaming, I'm always listening!
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop in one of your videos that you used coffee to fill a crack you mentioned that maybe you would get a tad into the colored stuff. I meant to suggest a product that Nick Zametti uses, but then forgot. It's called milliput, and here's a link to a video that he uses it in. I have no clue what kind of price point it is, but might be worth looking into as it has a much more natural look than resin.

Good job, very creative, I like it. Thanks
Well Phil its been so long since u turned a regular bowl, I wouldn’t be surprised if u didn’t get a little bored not having much of a challenge. I guess deciding whether or not to plug the hole was the biggy. It did turn out to be a very nice bowl. Haven’t seen many of this kind turned but it has unique flavors. I hope u get a real challenge next week. Thanks a lot!
The challenge in this one, Kid, was just the size of it. Everything takes longer from turning to sanding to finishing. I do have a "Dog" of a piece for next week! LOL!
Phil
Well that was incredibly satisfying! Beautiful result! I've subscribed. Thanks!
I'm so glad you like this, Nathaniel! Thank you! I will try to be worthy of your subscription.
Phil
Soft and challenging wood to turn, and you did well by it. If you get your hands on a fresh piece, it might go easier with less tear out. And you could try one of those oiled, thin wall bowls that become quite translucent with the right finish. Good job deciding to plug the hole, even though you normally “wood knot” do so. Looking forward to watching you tackle the next piece of challenging wood.
Thank you so much, Valerie! It was a bit of a challenge but, thankfully, finished up, nicely.
Phil
Turning one of these today. Yours is beautiful! Nice job as usual! I do lots of these. The color is spalting or mold!
Awesome! Thank you! 🙂
Tiger striped bowl. It is beautiful!!!!!
😊
Hi Phil,
NIP is beautiful, and you really brought this one out to shine!
Best regards
Lars
Glad you like it, Lars, thank you!
Phil
Thank you Phil it turned out well
Thank YOU, Don, for supplying this great piece!
Phil
Dale here, thanks for the NIP vid. I turn alot of it, some pieces are gorgeous, some have zero appeal, keep up the good work.
I'm glad it's not just me, Dale. Thanks! 😊
Worked with this a lot here in Florida. That’s a really dry piece. It turns very easy when less dry. A great finish for that particular wood is gunstock oil. Really makes it pop. That is the natural color of the wood, you saw. Beautiful wood. Hard to get the star pattern from the knots.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Kenneth!
It’s gorgeous!!
😊
Another good turn and video Phil . I like the look of the Norfolk Island Plne different, thanks for sharing.
I really like it.....have never seen Norfolk Island pine turned before but we have a lot of it growing here in Tasmania.....
Interesting, Hazel, thank you! 😊
Nice one Phil... you made that end grain turn look easy .. 👍
Thank you, Andy!
Phil
A very nice bowl for salad or popcorn. Have never seen that coloring in wood before.
Natural! For show! Shame that tree lost it's life for a storm? It's beautiful ❤️
😊
Gorgeous bowl...I've always wanted to turn a chunk of Norfolk Island Pine!
I hope you get your chance, Carol. Thank you!
Phil
Gorgeous piece, Phil! This inspires me to dig out some NIP and give this a shot!
Go for it, David, and good luck with yours!
Phil
Phil that is just beautiful!
I really enjoy your channel and how you teach through plain conversation. I pick up so much from watching you; I rarely even realize I’m learning until I’m in my shop and using something I learned from you.
Today I was watching 2 different turners who said in their videos they learned from you too! It was nice to hear others pay homage to you and your work.
Hope you are doing well my friend.
Such a nice comment, Nicole, thank you so much! 😊
Your right, its beautiful. The color and grain and the knots add to the overall look. Really, really nice looking.
Well for what it’s worth Phil, I think that’s a mighty fine looking bowl. I’ve watched a few NIP bowls being turned over the years and yes they’ve turned out very similarly to yours. Never had the opportunity to try turning a piece & considering it’s end grain (not one of my personal favourites to turn), you made it look so easy. I must admit I wasn’t expecting to see you plug it, but it was the right decision imho.
It’s a beauty my friend and thanks for sharing.
All the best from the U.K.
Geof
One of the few "useful" pieces I've turned, Geof. I just couldn't see dripping salad dressing all over the table. Besides, I'm sure I heard lots of affirmative voices in favor of a plug.
Thank you so much, my friend!
Phil
Not bad for a not so ordinary bowl, I like the lines in it
Cool, thanks, Christiane! 😊
It's beautiful. I love it.
Lovely bowl Unusual wood but looks great.
Absolutely stunning Mr. Phil
Beautiful wooden bowl from a master at work! LOVE IT!❤️👍🏼
Nice looking bowl
Thank you very much, Woodslee!
Phil
Phil you have done it one more time love it
Nice job Phil, Norfolk Island Pine originated from Norfolk Island off the East coast of New South Wales, Australia. The island became a penal colony and the fleet thought the trees, being strong in appearance and tall would make excellent mast and spar material for the ships. This was not to be as the timber is useless for use in structural/load bearing applications. The wood grain resembles palm wood as it is being worked. Pretty bowl, but yes the wood is very thirsty. Nice work Phil, cheers John
Thanks for the history and botanical lessons, John! I never would have known that.
Phil
Phil Anderson - Shady Acres Woodshop BTW, it does not grow anywhere near Norfolk Va, unfortunately for us turners near there. Cheers, Tom
@@tomcoker9882 FYI, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Araucaria_heterophylla
Very nice piece!
Great job Phil. I like the color. KNott your average spalted piece.
I know nothing about woodturning, but I love your videos. I find them very relaxing and your pieces always look beautiful. Thank you for sharing your skill and talent with us!
Such a nice comment, Christina, thank you!
Phil
Niece job again Phil.
Wow you handled the torn grain very well ...Not much of a pine fan . But I must say , this one looks great...
I'm with you, Steve, on the Pine, but like you, I'm happy it turned out pretty well.
Phil
What a beautiful bow love it Great job Phil
Thank you, Mike!
Phil
Phil Anderson - Shady Acres Woodshop You’re very welcome you deserve it and then some
That's beautiful
Thank You Phil (thank you Don Lyons) I like the knots a LOT...I have often passed this tree and wondered how it would look turned. Very nice Phil, it sounds like a soft wood that really drinks up your finish. Another beauty in the books and I look forward to next Thursday Phil..tm
It surely did drink up the finish, Tuffy! It's amazing, sometimes, how much liquid you can put back into a piece of wood! Thank you, buddy!
Phil
Nice job Phil!
Glad you like it, Bruce, thank you!
I've never seen that type of wood but I think it's beautiful and I love the flower! God gift
Great looking bowl, Phil. Nice job. I would have left the hole.
I like it, the natural grains give it an old barn type look. I can just see that bowl sitting on a barn beam table top.
Beautiful bowl Phil,
I love the flower too! Nice job...
That's a great looking bowl Phil. I noticed you were getting some tear out, that must have taken a lot of sanding! Thank you for sharing.
Yes, this wood just would not be cut cleanly or even scraped cleanly. And, yes, lots of sanding but I think it paid off. Thank you, Jon, I'm glad you like it!
Phil
Great looking bowl Phil. I think good call on plug. Thanks for the time you put in making these great videos.
It's beautiful
It has become a beautiful bowl. I have watched again with admiration and paid careful attention to how you were turning this piece. Thank you. -Frank.
Thank you, Frank, I appreciate your time and great comment!
Phil
What a lovely bowl! I do so enjoy your videos. Thank you
Nice bowl
Fine job with a unique piece of wood!
Thanks Phil. Another good looking bowl. You should have left the pith hole!
😊
I really like the way you used sanding as a tool rather than something to be avoided. I am new to turning and sometimes it is easier to do a bit of sanding to get the surface or shape I am after instead of fighting with a tool that I don't know that well and screwing up the entire piece with a bad catch. Also thanks for the speed you are turning at. It helps as a starting point with respect to how large the piece is and what kind of wood it is.
Thank you, Grumpy! 😊
The finish is stunning. The simple shape highlights the wood grain. It’s another beautiful job. And I say thanks to the viewer who sent such an interesting piece of wood to you! 💕
Love your stuff!
I love that you watch, William, win-win! 😊
Another great turning. Really like the shape. Interesting wood. Never had the opportunity to turn any. Thanks for sharing Phil. Keep um coming.
Thank you, Wayne, I'm glad you like it! They're coming, they're coming!
Phil
Nice looking utility bowl. A little different from your usual; but as always, a piece to admire👍🏆 -Mike
Glad you like it, Mike, thank you!
Phil
As always, just beautiful. Well done!
Pretty impressive looking bowl Phil. It's a bit of a breakaway from your 'natural edge' bowls but I think that's a good thing now & again. I know that you are a bit against filling holes normally but I think it was the right thing this time as it is a more utilitarian type piece. You had to work hard on the finishing but it was absolutely worth it. Very enjoyable commentary as always & I hope that never changes. Cheers mate, Don from South Aust.
It is a good thing to break up my normal stuff, Don, but it's not much fun! LOL! Thank you for watching! 😊
Howdy Phil
That is a nice piece of wood , with that dark color on it , it looks more like something that came from Africa !
I notice that all the chips came off like saw dust ... I imagine that is normal for that wood . I have never heard of Norfolk Island Pine . it also looks punky until you sand it . What makes a hole go through the center must be the way they suck up the water .
Too bad those knots didn't come out the way you wanted .
This is one of the bigger bowls you've turned .
keep on turnin'
This was an all end-grain turning, Bruce, that's why the chips were so small. And, yeah, I spent a lot of time sanding this one! LOL!
Phil
AWESOME piece Phil!!! I turn a lot of white pine it's fun and easy to work with ! The colors that are in that piece are form being left out side in weather as pine will turn blue and gray more commonly know as blue stain just before it goes to punky!
I love that blue color in Pine! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop I currently have a whole tree of it it's aging right now the butt logs I sawed into 3 and 4 inch slabs and I saved as much of the smaller top peices as I could for turning!
Wow, that's a really nice one! Pretty!
Thank you, Rod!
Hi phil as always great piece lovely grain very nice 👍 kirk from Stoke-on-Trent
Thank you very much, Kirk!
Phil
Nice work
