It's awesome that you have access to Yew. I live in the pacific northwest part of North America, and we don't have Yew trees here. Beautiful bowl skillfully made. Thanks for the videos. 😎

[@darrenoneil2455]

Lots of pacific yew if you know where to look. Timber companies leave it lay.

[@stevedoolanTacoma]

Wonderful graining! And, those shavings!!!! I've never worked with yew, but now I want to. And thank you for listing what speed you are using for playback (8x). That really helps to get a better feel for the speed you are moving. But...no wax on/wax off???

[@RDMWoodturning]

You are so welcome! Yes, I went for a longer lasting oil finish this time. I'm sure that I'll have another wax project up soon.😀👍

[@STMwoodturning]

English yew has such beautiful colors and grain!

[@RDMWoodturning]

It also cuts like butter! Yew is amazing to work with.
