My wife and I both loved that vessel. I wish I could buy it. Even your mistakes turn out out gorgeous.
Thanks 🙏
The grain on this wood is spectacular!
It’s amazing! Thanks
Stunning bowl. The figure is beyond beautiful. The soapstone really complements it. I learned a lot (as always): cellulose sanding sealer, abrasive paste, Shellawax, ... Great technique, thanks, Jim.
Awesome, thanks!
We have a lot of Poplar here in central Virginia. I have experienced such a wide range of grain and color with Poplar that I always enjoy turning it. Beautiful wood and once again a great job!
Thanks Joel! I don’t usually turn it unless I see lots of big limbs, then I know there will be lots of nice grain.
Loved your total approach to the Poplar box. Awesome design and finish! Thanks
Thanks 🙏🏻
What ever you create it’s a marvel to me. Again I watch your videos over and over and still impressed. I try very hard to do the same but there yet. Thank you for your wonderful well description/ presentation of your your work. Of course when you do it, it doesn’t look so difficult!! Ha!
Thanks again for your great comments! Jim.
Beautiful lidded pot, Jim. The colors in the poplar are so awesome. I love your videos. You are a magnificent woodworker! ❤🙃
Thanks 😊
Wow! That grain really pops. Looks fantastic.
Thanks James!
Fabulous lidded box Jim, the figure is really amazing. I agree with the lid knob, keep it simple and plain. 👍
I use cellulose sanding sealer which I get prethinned from Hampshire Sheen. If I get anybody else's I thin by up to 40% with a thinner. Regards the Yorkshire grit, I apply it more liberally and work it in slow, about 300rpm until the gritiness is gone. Then take the speed up to 550 rpm for a minute or two, then start to take it off with clean cloth/kitchen towel at 800 rpm until I can't see any on the towel.
Disclaimer, this is just how I do it. 😀
Great info Ian, thanks!
You always do OUTSTANDING WORK ON ALL THE PIECE YOU DO. BEAUTIFUL JOB
Thanks 😊
What a pretty little bowl. The woodgrain is beautiful, and I love the shape. It's strange watching an older video without any resin.❤❤
Lol. Thank you very much!
Lovely job Jim beautiful popular grain beautifully finished thanks for showing video👍🤴
Thanks Colin!
I didn’t know that poplar had such gorgeous grain. That is an amazing bowl. I’ve learned a great deal about this wood.
Your not going to find very many pieces like this. Thanks
You have made me change my mind on poplar. I was never a fan of it but wow! That figure! Beautiful work.
Look for those big limbs! Thanks.
I really like this box allot. The crotch wood grain is awesome. I like the contrasting wood of the finial too.
Thanks!
Nice work, glad you are branching out with new turnings
I’ve been doing these for years, just don’t do a lot of them , thanks 🙏
Nice piece, poplar can be interesting I agree. Nice job noticing the grain character. Love Yorkshire grit and their fine polish. Stay safe...
It sure can be for a junk wood species, thanks.
Yes, it is definitely a lovely piece! The richness, and colour of the grain invite one to reach out and touch, no, caress it! Thank you for allowing us the joy of seeing this piece!
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Thanks, Jim, for your generosity in covering all the details of your work, this is what makes a great video. Lovely result and letting the grain take the credit for your craftsmanship. Regards from Poole England
Thanks Brian!
It's amazing how perfect the nature of the tree is ...
And how it unfolds when it falls into the hands of a master of such a high level.
Thank you!
Your Inley work is absolutely beautiful.. Also I like how you explain the products you use
Thanks!
I love this lidded vessel.
Thanks Auntie.
Great vessel Jim!
Its a tad soft, but I think poplar is a very underrated wood. It can be gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing!
Seth
It certainly can, thanks Seth
Perfect timing, popular fell in yard, will burn most but kept all crotches for turning. Great idea
Give it a try, you got nothing to loose but time, lol.
Really sweet project this week thanks till next time stay safe
Thanks Tony!
Very nice! Love that grain.
Thanks John!
Once again a great piece! Awesome job Jim!
Thanks Brad!
Poplar, I dont believe it, that turned out fantastic!
I’ve still got a few special pieces to make yet, thanks
Love the grain in the piece.fantastic job
Thanks John!
Very unexpected for wood grain for popular, another excellent job absolute perfection.
Poplar will surprise you sometimes, thanks
So pretty! Might be my favorite.
Tons of figure! Thanks.
Amazing grain pattern, Fantastic Piece 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 🙏
Stunning bowl, never seen popular that looks that beautiful
That tree was special! Thanks
Great look box. Nice job and I love the grain of the wood.
It sure is pretty! Thanks.
As a photographer, I fully appreciate the better camera quality, and I love how it brings out the details in something you love.
I also love the passion with which you talk about different woods. Something that never crossed my mind!
I keep improving my camera skills with each video, or at least I try to, lol. Thanks 🙏
You made a Poplar bowl look like an acorn. Cool!
Lol 😝 thanks
Beautiful piece. And I think the top is just right . It doesn’t overpower the rest of the box. Subscribed 👍
Awesome thanks!
The grain is absolutely gorgeous! I love that little bowl. It reminds me of a pumpkin.
Thank you very much!
Hi Jim,
Love that Poplar lidded bowl. I am from Yorkshire so always use Yorkshire Grit. There is an excellent 2nd product to use called Yorkshire Grit polish.
The finish is very good.
Looking forward to your next project.
Chris
I use the Microfine grit in this weeks video, thanks.
Great box Jim. I sure like the colour in the wood.
Thanks Jack!
Really nice job Jim. The wood grain is awesome.
Thanks!
Many people look forward to Friday for the weekend. I look forward to Friday for your videos!!! Your lidded box is beautiful. The design, finish and videography was worth the time to watch. Have a great week!
Thank you!
Awesome, thanks Dane!
Fantastic grain! Cute bowl!
Thanks Beatrice!
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful
Thanks 🙏
Very nice looking piece. I absolutely love turning poplar, I know it’s not the classiest wood, but it’s plentiful the grain and colors can be absolutely beautiful. But as any wood you need to make sure your tools are sharp.
Thanks, you are very correct, sharp tools are the key!
I am getting ready to cut one of my poplar trees down. I will definitely try to make a bowl like this one.
Good stuff, this came from a crotch section, thanks
👍Great job.
Thank you for your video.
Thanks 🙏
Stunning piece of timber
Thanks 🙏
Love the grain in the wood, I started turning as a hobby two years ago. It’s nice too see you trying new things, love your videos. I’m a Yorkshire man and I too use Yorkshire Grit, puts a lovely finish in wood. Keep up the good work 😊
Thanks, I’m definitely not done with it!
Jim, first time commenting just letting you know you are quite a craftsman enjoy your video's keep up the good work!
Thanks Ric!
As always a beautiful box and informative video
Thanks 🙏
For some reason this video never made it to my play list..
Looks great!
Hum, don’t know? Thanks for watching tho!
Yes there is awesome chatoyance in the wood it really has a fire in its belly.
There sure is, thanks!
Fantastic work lovely box I love the wood brilliant job, be safe
Thanks George!
Beautiful wood grain! I just finished my first lidded bowl. Made from ash with a walnut finial. I use Ack’s abrasive paste on everything.
Thanks for watching
This is so pretty. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Thanks Nancy!
Absolutely beautiful bowl! I prefer more color to enhance the wood, yet this is a wonderful example of inlays!!
Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Tim, I'm watching your video on Maple crotch with maple burl and silver black tinted resin on TV TH-cam.
You had a hell of a time getting it out of the bucket!
Next time find the center on the bottom of the bucket and drill a hole. It will let the air in and release it in a tap or two. Just tuck tape the hole for the next pour!
I'm not at turner yet. Bought a new 16X46 lathe floor model and setting it up for a winter of learning and turning! I'm a 100 percent disabled Vietnam veteran and sit too much. I figure it's time to start standing and not so much sitting. I've been building and flying RC models for over 60 years and sit when I'm doing that, so it's time to get up and try to keep from loosing my legs.
My turning shop name will be
"Birdcage productions". I thought it was appropriate because my nickname is Bigbird or just bird. Also quite appreciate because I love anything that flies.
Any suggestions on how to get sponsors would be much appreciated.
Thank you my American brother.
I really love your work.
I'm a big fan of natural edge bowls and resin turnings.
Phil Anderson and The Papa 1947 are two of my other favorites.
Take care and let's keep in touch.
Bob Bray aka 'bird'
Hi Bob. Do you plan on starting a TH-cam channel?
@@SpragueWoodturning
I was thinking about it. Don't really know much on how to.
Any help will be appreciated.
I've been modeling RC planes for over 60 years and have really burned out. I'm not done by any means, I am pationately in love with aviation. I have been a Craftsman for a long long time! I'm not sure how long I can do turning as I'm loosing my leg strength. I'm a 100 percent disabled Vietnam veteran from agent orange. I'll be 70 next month and feel 85!
I don't think I want to make a business turning but I hope I can enjoy a long time doing it.
Please, keep in touch with me.
I enjoy the videos you do.
I also like Phil Anderson and his natural edge bowls. I'm also interested in resin.
I've been buying a lot of stuff.
I'm trying to get my garage set up as a wood shop. Supposed to be getting a double door fridge to make a kiln and another one for resins and glues so they won't freeze.
I'm a backyard engineer. I have 16 degrees, signed them all myself!🤣
Let's keep this going please.
Many thanks Jim.
Sorry I got your name wrong first time.

That is a gorgeous bowl. Would not have expected poplar to turn so well and have such beauty. Thanks for great work.
Really appreciate you looking at different finishes.
Thanks Guy.
This is awesome Jim!!
Thanks 🙏
as always beautiful just a gorgeous grain and finish
Thanks 😊
Good looking box!! Still waiting on my bowl!! Lol
Thanks Chris! Getting close!
beautiful grain in that wood
Some of the stuff that tree produce was amazing, thanks 🙏
Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks Jean!
Very beautiful! Good luck!
Thanks 🙏
Super cool piece Jim, that poplar wood has such beautiful grain structure, the soapstone inlays are great, Thanks!
Thanks Brad!
Very nice container! I do thin my sealer 50/50. I also found that the blue shop towels will transfer the color to your work. I have changed to white only and no longer have that problem.
Great tip, thanks.
Nice looking container
Thanks 🙏
Stunning bowl, Jim. I’d have made a smaller finial but my boss (wife) happened to see the vid and told me I was simply wrong and you were right... the colour is beautiful so the sanding sealer does it for me here. So that is the definitive judgment - a gorgeous bowl with a superbly tasteful finial. Thanks! Hugh
Thanks mamma knows best, my wife hates the finial, lol. Just goes to show, we all like different things.
I love the figuring
It’s grade A, thanks 🙏
Hi Jim, Lovely pot! The Yorkshire grit has mineral oil and wax in and is usually not used before oil finish although I have seen people clean the wax off with denatured alcohol before oiling.
The literature that came with the can said any choice of finish can be applied over the grit. The wood bowl finish worked just fine 🤷♂️, thanks.
Another beautiful project! Great woods, too. Love how they have similar grains. You have such a strong shaping sense! Glad to hear the poplar story. In Iowa, we use poplars for wind breaks. They grow tall, skinny, and fast but don’t seem to live long. Your poplar must have been royalty.
It was an incredible tree! Thanks
Love the box!
Thanks 🙏
Love the grain. It's pretty.
It sure is, thanks 🙏
That wood is beautiful - wow
Thank you very much!
Excellent, Jim! I would not have guessed that was poplar. Definitely beautiful, great shape and finish. Winner all the way around.
Thanks Ray!
Jim, great project! I am enjoying seeing you stretch your abilities and being honest about what you've done. Your skills show through!
Thanks Creig!
Man, that is gorgeous grain, good job
Pretty nice for a weed species, thanks!
Beautiful Jim, good to see you using the yorkshire grit.
I thought I would give it a go, so far I’m pleased with it, thanks.
Beautiful wood, nice design.
Thank you very much!
Nick Zammetti is the video's 2 watch about yorkshire grit 😂🎉❤ and as always beautiful bowl
I don’t use it anymore. Thank you very much!
I use Bulls Eye alcohol based sanding sealer and I do mix it 50/50 with denatured alcohol so it dries faster. I make my own abrasive paste. Well my wife makes my abrasive paste for me using Kim's recipe.
Good to know, thanks!
Very nice! I agree about how the mylands tends to not yellow some woods. I turn a lot of splayed magnolia and it is night and day using mylands cellulose versus an oil based product, much more vibrant look.
Yes, it certainly works good for this purpose, thanks.
I've never been a fan of Poplar wood until now. This piece has tons of grain and texture! Really pretty piece. 💜
Poplar can produce some really nice grain, thanks.
Beautiful color and shape
It’s a beauty! Thanks.
I love the figure in that wood. My husband built me freezer kiln after watching your videos. It works great! Thanks for the tips. I tried friction polish on a small lidded box for the first time. It was really smooth. I have only turned 5 bowls so I have a lot to learn. I enjoy your videos.
Great! The two kilns of got never shut off, thanks.
WOW! Beautiful
Thank you! 😊
Super job
Thank you very much!
Excellent work. Really enjoyed your video. Well turned and well done!
Thanks Joseph!
That's one of the most beautiful grain I've seen so far. The bowl is fabulous.
Not bad for popular eh? Nicest tree I ever got! Thanks
wow going to go look at the poplar in my fire wood pile. just subscribed
You might be surprised, thanks for subbing.
I glued a piece to my chuck once by adding an inlay like you did on the lid... LOL
It happens more than I like to admit, lol.
Absolutely beautiful piece Jim.
I have never seen popular looking like that. Absolutely stunning.
Thanks for the video.
Thanks Carl!
very nice Jim,have lots that up here,popular,will check out,great job
Thanks for watching
Great project Jim.
Those cans are a pain to pour out of.
Have u ever thought of using Stop Loss bags? Real easy to work out of with an added benefit of keeping your finish from skiming over.
Been using them now for probably a year, love them!
That Poplar grain is just beautiful! Love the container/box!
Thanks 🙏
Beautiful work.
Thanks!
Nice work. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Jim, this is covered bowl is very nice! It was great to see another inlay project! The grain in the wood is gorgeous!
Thanks K
Jim, it’s beautiful in the simplicity of its lines coupled with that gorgeous grain! I’ve never seen Poplar with grain patterns that pronounced before, nor had I ever heard of a Poplar growing that large! Sounds like it was a singularly Blessed tree! Too bad it had to be taken down.
As usual, I always learn something from your videos, making the time invested to be a sound choice! Keep on turnin’!
Cottonwood poplars here can get quite massive, with really nice crotch grain as well. If it’s got big limbs on it, don’t pass it up, thanks.
