  • Ropey (poor or unsatisfactory). [British, slang]
    I saved this from my fire wood pile and I have a feeling it will be going back on there!!

    That's totally unique. Surprising that the colour of the rope is still bright even though it had clearly been there for years. Interesting too that it is a very similar colour to one of your favourite resins that compliments the natural colours of polished wood. A successful experiment and to judge by the reactions here a very saleable piece.

      Marine rope is tough stuff. We had a bull dog that would destroy every toy we ever gave it. Made a "Dog Bone" out of marine rope and it lasted forever.

    This reminded me of a Banyan tree I lived with for years. One day I had a small melted antique bottle in my hand. I didn't know where to put it so I put it into a nook in the tree. Banyan trees have stringy vines that hang down to the ground, eventually becoming extensions of the tree, sometimes resembling flying buttresses.They can grow big enough to walk through.
    Old waterspouts, doornobs,shells, ceramic pottery, sea glass and any old thing I didn't have a place for went into the tree. I left that house and the tree 5 years ago. Occasionally I think about my little tchotchkes incorporated into the living tree.
    AND...I love your work.

    Awww….I just assumed it was part of a tire swing at one time. I really thought there was a mushy story attached to it. There’s another woodturner who did take his childhood tire swing log and made a vessel out of it (without the rope). Had the rope impression in the wood and everything. Was so cool to know he made something from a childhood memory.

      Wabi Sabi: A traditional Japanese esthetic of accepting transience and imperfection. An artistic manifestation of this is Kintsugi. The Japanese art of tastefully repairing broken pottery, but rather than trying to hide the flaws and breaks, you highlight them. And in doing so, the piece becomes more beautiful than it originally was.

  • @neesr13
    @neesr13 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Watching wood turning is my happy place. I love the sounds of the wood as it is slowly scraped away, and then the patterns you create with each layer you remove. Then the magic happens when, after all the shaping and sanding, the sealer is applied which reveals the grain, inclusions and shine. I was so relaxed and really enjoyed the process. Then you went and combed out the 'poof' and gave it a haircut. I nearly fell off my chair laughing. What a rush. Cool job, Andy. LOL!!!

  • @YamiOni

    Only yesterday I saw a tree in the forest near the house, into which the wire had grown, and I also thought that if the wire was removed, there would be an interesting pattern on the wood.

  • @BPollard86
    @BPollard86 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    For a while I was wondering when he was going to get rid of the rope. Almost to the finishing point it dawned on me.... You can only make this if someone tied a rope around a tree a long time ago. You cant pile up blocks of lumber, cut a groove for the rope, try to make it look fancy, and get the same effect. This changes grain and everything. Maybe people, like a business, are doing things to trees now for interesting wood later? I don't envision a piece like this is something you would come across often. A lumber mill may just cut that out and burn it, but as a woodworker it can be something exceptionally unique. Good Save.

    Someone, somewhere, forgot that a tree is a living thing. They carelessly allowed a temporal use of a limb to remain permanently in place. Forever scarring both the rope and the tree. Because at some point one couldn't be removed without damaging the other. Along comes a man of depth. A man that understands that some things should remain together forever.
    Or maybe he just thought, it'd be cool if I could somehow cut the rope into the project.
