Amazing I have made many simple emerging bowls but this one is well over the top can't wait to dig a suitable piece out of the pill most likely yew as I have plenty great inspiration I like to remove the bark and scorch I have been turning for over 25 yrs and am 86 great inspiration to all from Harry in scotland
"Beautius" that has to be some American word..... I love it I have so many off cut pieces of timber that I refuse to throw away and then bang you show me the emerging bowl it looks fantastic . So Phil with balls of steel sticks his bowl gouge in place where other sane men fear to tread you are a true inspiration and watching your channel and being introduced to Papa's has given me some real food for thought
What a wonderful comment, Steven! I know Gary and I are happy to provide some inspiration. You are right to hang onto those cut-offs. Ya just never know what might catch your eye next time you are looking for a project. Phil
Hi Phil, I have been watching your videos for about 6 months now. I have learned a lot from you. I believe you have been corresponding with my husband John. we just purchased a jet. I love it. thank you for the videos.
Hi Lori! Yes, John told me of your new Jet purchase. I'm sure you will both enjoy it for many years to come. Thank you for your very kind words and for taking your time to watch! Phil
I didn't doubt you for a second Phil. Another great piece of art. I particularly like the way you stop turning to explain your train of thought so far and for the next part. Keep them coming Phil. Cheers, Huw
Confused as to why you left all that area around the bowl area. When you started it was such a beautiful oval bowl. I was getting excited. But then left in the end. But as they say"beauty is in the eye of the beholder". We love your work. You believe in accepting the natural, flaws and all. Keep up the great works. We were really impressed with the rose root ball. That was breathtaking..
The title should give it away, Patricia. It's an "Emerging Bowl." It's meant to look like the bowl is rising up from it's surroundings. I suppose it's not for everyone, just something a little different. Thank you for watching! 😊
As much as I enjoy your turning, this was a little "different dinosaur"Phil Still gotta give ya thumbs just because you're such a likeable guy! See ya next time my friend. By the way, you do inspire me to takle more uncovitntual pcs. Screwed up the spelling here, but it's late at night. Appreciate you Phil
Now that's a funky yet cool piece, Phil. I like it. Get an old mouse pad and take the fabric or what ever it has on top off. Then cut enough small pieces of it to give you something about the size of that foam brush and glue them together with contact cement. You can cut them long enough to give you something to hold onto, or glue a 3/8" dowel about 6" or so long in the middle of them. Now you have something a little more firm than the foam brush to wrap your sandpaper around. Billy
I was definitely “on the fence” for a while with this one Phil, but once again your persistence & patience paid off & voila the end product is a very pleasing piece. Regards as always from the UK. Geof
Yeah, I was sitting right next to you on that fence, Geof. I thought maybe I had bit off more than I could chew, but it all worked out in the end. Really glad you like it, thank you! Phil
Once again you amaze me. I love it another great video. I actually look forward getting the notices on my phone that you uploaded a video. Keep them coming. Cant wait for the next lesson. Your wood turning student. Tom C.
I really love this one Phil. definitely one of my favorites of your chanel! we have so much red alder where I live too. an often overlooked wood, but it can be really beautiful. You inspired me to go looking for some spalted pieces to turn! I love how you leave parts natural for more character on your pieces. It really adds a nice touch to this one.
I'm so glad you love it, Mitch, thank you very much! Yes, alder is used mostly for firewood and maybe it burns good but I think I'd rather turn it! Burn fir, it's kinda ugly and burns good, too! I hope you find just the right piece to turn, Mitch, I'm sure you'll find it fun to turn and beautiful when finished. Enjoy! Phil
I agree, the only wood in my wood shed is douglas fir. alder is actually pretty nice looking and doesn't deserve to be burned. although I would like to try turning some fir since I have an abundance, it just isn't that pretty unless it is old growth with really tight growth rings, then it has more character.
Pretty cool project Phil, I wasn't sure about it till you were holding it right at the end of the vid, and then I thought yes, that does work :) good job!
Another nice piece! You had me laughing when you moved the tail stock due to vibration and said “that’s the way the ball bounces!” I thought it’s better the ball than the bowl! 😉 I think the name “emerging bowl” is very clever because it totally describes what it looks like-a bowl trying to emerge from a log.
Howdy Phil I like it ....That alder is always look nice when finished .It looked like you were going threw the whole piece with that carbide cutter , couple times I said to myself " oh no it's going to " from the camera angle and this little lap top I have to use now , PC is not working , I built it in 2012 top shelf parts but problems . I will fix it . That color from that bees wax you use is great on the wood . tough on balance a odd piece ....balance on your center.....you have similar tail stock center than what I have ....I unscrew the center and place my odd piece over the center , like the old way garages balanced tires .....press down when you have balanced close and you have a mark .....I have done it many times and it works nicely . 34 degrees.... wow .....maybe your wife will let you bring the lathe in the living room hahahahhahaha tough to sand in spots like that ...cut the tip off a little on a used poly brush helps . Real nice bowl Phil ....find some more Alder .
Hey, now, Bruce, great tip on using the live center to balance on! I usually use a bench dog that's handy, but I like your idea of marking the piece at the same time. You're smart! Hope you get the PC up and running, I know I wouldn't like to do without mine even for a short time. Yeah, it's been cold but I wouldn't count on my wife to feel sorry for me! LOL! Thanks, buddy! Phil
It is bound to be off balance because that bark side is so uneven! Nice job on the bowl. i was expecting a different emerging bowl where it is cut in half and then turned to match the outside radius with a bowl on the inside but I enjoyed your method and product. Cheers, Jim
Thank you, Jim! Nearly everything I turn is off balance, it's just the price I pay for working WITH Mother Nature instead of against her. I'm glad you like it!
May I suggest something that I would like to see in your videos, so perhaps others would like it too: could you date the video. Being a relative newby, it would help when references are made about other videos. Then, it would be great if you would show a ‘before’ and ‘after’. That is actually the most miraculous part of the whole thing! When you take a twisted, gnarled, cracked hunk of wood and work your magic on it, the end result just is jaw dropping.
Hi Joanne! These types of questions are always kind of hard to address because I don't know how you are watching videos, phone, tablet, PC, etc. All the videos are dated. When I click on a video to watch (I use a PC) I see the video window, right below it the video title and right below that is the date it was published to TH-cam. I'm pretty sure no matter how you watch the date is shown somewhere on the screen. Also, from my Home page, if you click on Videos, you will see all my videos in descending order, newest first. As far as "before and after", that's a problem. I seldom remember to take a "before" picture! If I do remember, I usually include it in the picture for the video, so you would see the before and completed pics in the thumbnail for the video. I guess I just get so excited to start turning I forget! Old age, ya know. Or, you can always just watch the beginning of the video for a couple seconds to see the "before." I do appreciate you taking your time to watch and to write terrific comments, Joanne. Thank you so much! Phil
Hi Phil, I forgot to hit the "bell" for notifications so I just hit it now!Dah!!! This may be Beauty and the Beast?? It kinda works on your mind! First glance and it's an after thought but soon it becomes a very unique looking piece! I laughed when you said,,,"Bot that's some scary crap right there"! LOL EXACTLY how I feel doing the inside of the droop over with A's droop over bowls! You did great though! Thanks for the video! Tom
Hi Tom! I've yet to try a droop over. Been kind of waiting for the right piece to come along but, yeah, I can see where they are very scary, especially the first time. Thanks for hitting the bell and thank you for your great comment! Phil
Blimey Phil It’s fab mate ,I gotta say I really admire your persistence About halfway through I was screaming “burn the bastard and get warm”but no what a fabulous piece. Your a star hope your well mate All the best Les
Like this a lot. Mind if I borrow the idea? I was wondering about that sharp bark point. Then it came off. The wood underneath is cool. Did you entertain removing all of the bark?
By all means, use whatever helps, John. I nearly always try to keep the bark on with my turnings. I just like the nature it helps provide. You may also enjoy this turning which is similar and my all time favorite piece: th-cam.com/video/vfK0xkJrlXQ/w-d-xo.html 😊
Phil to start out I thought that was one ugly piece of wood but I knew that would soon change. And you did not let me down. Turned out very cool. Also I saw that bark gone before you even mentioned it. And I think that the natural wood there really adds to the overall look.Glad you left it off. That bowl has a little bit of something for everyone. Bark bug holes and beauty. One thing I have done is wrap sandpaper around a 1 inch foam roller for sanding hard to reach spots. With a dowel handle. Works ok but not perfect. It does conform nice if you have a radius you try to get at. I think with a little Howard Feed and Wax you could turn a frozen chicken into something nice. Keep warm buddy, Gary
Haha! You crack me up, Gary! "Frozen Chicken." LOL! The foam roller is a good tip, I'll have to remember that. Glad you spotted the missing bark but not surprised. You have a good eye for details, evident in your turnings. Thanks for watching, my friend! Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop yes I believe it is I am in lincolnshire England you may find out more on the net , hope you're weather is improving 😨👍
Liked the video Phil. My lathe didn’t come with a drill bit chuck for the tail stock and I am having trouble with finding one. Where did you get yours? Thanks. Tom
Thank you, Tom! They are fairly common, several sellers will have them. Here's mine: www.amazon.com/Keyless-Drill-Chuck-Morse-Taper/dp/B00JVUIS40/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1QU23SSTSC8EB&dchild=1&keywords=morse+taper+drill+chuck&qid=1618452489&sprefix=morse+taper+%2Caps%2C237&sr=8-9
Hey Phil, if you keep saying that it’s ugly people are going to start to think that it’s ugly! LoL I actually think it’s really nice and very different to anything I’ve ever seen before a beautiful piece of art. Well done. 📐💜📐 PS: I was thinking the whole time to take the bark off. But in the end it sort of did it for you. You had the best of all out comes.
Well, Cathy, while I'm working and talking to the viewers, I try to think about what they are thinking about and looking at this piece, I was sure some thought it was just too ugly to continue. I'm glad it turned out and very glad you like it, thank you so much! Phil
Thank you, Michael! I'm not an expert but it's my understanding that all modern finishes are food safe once they have cured. It's the lead in the old finishes that made them unsafe. But, like I said, I'm not an expert so buyer beware, I guess. Phil
Thank You Phil....Alder, I have never used or have seen before that I know about. The bark kinda looks like Live Oak but the wood reminds me of Birch??( as u can tell I am not good with wood). Phil I liked this one especially because it shows how you worked out problems as the piece progressed, so I consider this video one of your best from a viewers point of view...(the big mystery question > will Phil turn a tiny bowl from that 1" piece he cut off ???..ha)...Sooo Phil I will have to give this one 2 thumbs & 2 big toes UP....Please keep them coming....tm
I see the concept you are using with the spongy paint brush. How about using the same concept with sandpaper wrapped around a small drill bit or small "tubular" shaped sander or something like that. the only thing that comes to mind is a manicure tool that grinds down the surface of a fingernail. Using something like that with the paper wrapped around will help keep the paper on instead of it sliding off the wedge of the paint brush. I hope I'm making sense. Dan Preece uses something like this in his turning videos.
I appreciate the time you spent thinking about this! The real problem is nothing here is round. There are projections inside and outside of the gap between the bowl and the bottom. It's not possible to hold the sanding piece in any manner that doesn't get hit. If it was smooth it would be easy and your ideas would work. 😊
Well ya sure showed that piece of junk wood 'Whose Boss'??...Phill is the 'boss'!!..Yes sir!....Just put it on the lathe and make your decisions as you go along??. Great phillosophy!!..Ya,dats it. Phil-o-sophy we'll have to call it?,,Any piece of junk wood will do??.Great decisions all the way through?.Great Job Phil.
Hahaha! "Phil-o-sophy" I might just have to steal that, Brendan! What a great comment, thank you for getting my day started off on the right foot! Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop "PHIL" was the easy part !....."SOPHY"Um??, ...Remember when we took our classical Greek courses in school??, (ye right??) (last time I saw school I was 14 years old!)...Anyhowsomever, "SOPHY" CAN apply to the amalgagram, it means ;Science.!....Now what could be more scientific than taking a chunk of burnt out forest tree root or a misshapen and cracked slab of firewood and turning them into amazing works of art??...Relatively useless remnants of NATURE combined with a healthy infusion of fearless human spirit reveals to us the oft neglected art within!!... Keep that 5/8th bowl gouge sharp and busy Phil. You are a TRUE inspiration!! Brendan.
man phil that sure was one ugly bowl starting out . what a trouble maker to . one of those murphy's law bowls . but in the end it turned out pretty cool . good job brother .
Well my young friend ,what does one say ? You started with a piece that can only be described as akin to a dirty warthog ,and ended with--not quite a butterfly!! I must say it has character but only as captain AHAB in moby dick ,but you have the patience of a saint ,10 out of 10 ,it would have been fire fodder in my hands. Well done,stay safe 🦖
Generally, I love your ideas. This one, however . . . well . . . . . everyone does things differently, right? If you get a chance to do another similar piece with not exactly nice looking, tight bark, remove the bark *first*, then turn. When the bark is not attractive, the natural wood surface that is revealed will be phenomenal! It also can be oiled easily. Perhaps it's just a personal thing. Whatever you do, keep turning!
I do try to leave as much of nature in a pieces as I can and tend to leave even the less attractive features. I just can't help it but you are right, CC, everyone does things differently and that's what keep this old globe a turnin'! I will certainly keep turning! Thank your for taking your time to watch and let me know how you feel. Much appreciated! Phil
Never was ugly, just different, and your talent is taking these unusual pieces of wood and creating something gorgeous, without fail!
Thank you for your kind comment, Beatrice! 😊
I am looking at every piece of wood with a "new " eye now. Thank you Phil!
So good to know, Mardy, thank you! 😊
You pulled the rabbit out of the hat. Artistic rendition of an odd shaped hunk of wood. Evolution comes to mind. 🌠
😊
Thumbs up Phil because it’s hard not to like anything you do!!
Very cool, Victor, thank you! 😊
i love the emerging bowl concept, they look really earthy and cool. thank you for sharing
Glad you like them, Joyce! I love the term you used, "earthy." 😊
It's a wonderful looking bowl you did a great job
So glad you like it, big cajun! Thank you!
Phil
Amazing I have made many simple emerging bowls but this one is well over the top can't wait to dig a suitable piece out of the pill most likely yew as I have plenty great inspiration I like to remove the bark and scorch I have been turning for over 25 yrs and am 86 great inspiration to all from Harry in scotland
Thank you Harry in Scotland! Good to know you are still active, gives me a positive outlook!
Phil
Beautiful piece! It's different but perfect!
Glad you like it, Stephen! Thank you very much!
Great job I like the way it turned out Larry
😊
"Beautius" that has to be some American word..... I love it I have so many off cut pieces of timber that I refuse to throw away and then bang you show me the emerging bowl it looks fantastic . So Phil with balls of steel sticks his bowl gouge in place where other sane men fear to tread you are a true inspiration and watching your channel and being introduced to Papa's has given me some real food for thought
What a wonderful comment, Steven! I know Gary and I are happy to provide some inspiration. You are right to hang onto those cut-offs. Ya just never know what might catch your eye next time you are looking for a project.
Phil
Phil, that is the very definition of sticktoitivness. I like it. Kinda funky, as Mr. NZ would say.
It did take some persistence, no doubt about it, Mark. I'm so glad you like it, thank you!
Phil
Hi Phil, I have been watching your videos for about 6 months now. I have learned a lot from you. I believe you have been corresponding with my husband John. we just purchased a jet. I love it. thank you for the videos.
Hi Lori! Yes, John told me of your new Jet purchase. I'm sure you will both enjoy it for many years to come. Thank you for your very kind words and for taking your time to watch!

I like the rustic look..I was concerned for a while.......But turned out nice!👍👍👍👍
Thank you, Jack! Sometimes we can be surprised in a good way! LOL!

Unique piece Phil!

Hi Phil in my turning experience there is no such thing as an ugly bowl. Great job 👍
Thank you, John, I'm really glad you like it!

Beautiful emerging bowl
Enjoyed and gave a Thumbs Up also
Thank you very much, Russell, I appreciate your time and the thumbs up!

GM, GA, GE. Love it, love it!!
I'm so glad, thank you, Reba! 😊
That's the least ugly 'ugly' thing I've ever seen ❤️ I think it's absolutely lovely!
LOL! Ok, maybe not ugly but not as nice as the one I fashioned it after. Thank you, Ruth!
I wasn’t sure about this, but I should’ve trusted you because it’s another beauty. I’m like you, I just love the nature and that’s what I want to see.
We think alike, Tracy! 😊
Very unusual to me and beautiful Phil 👍
Many thanks, Jeff! 😊
I like it, too! You are really amazing how you take a simple piece of wood and turn it into a neat project!
Thank you, Carol! I'm so glad you like this one!

Haha! You crack me up, Gary! "Frozen Chicken." LOL! The foam roller is a good tip, I'll have to remember that. Glad you spotted the missing bark but not surprised. You have a good eye for details, evident in your turnings. Thanks for watching, my friend!
Phil
Well Phil thats as cool as hell .
Cool, thanks, Terry! 😊
It's like a posh bird bath!
Hey, great idea, MM! I could sprinkle some bird seed in the grooves, too!
Phil

Liked the video Phil. My lathe didn’t come with a drill bit chuck for the tail stock and I am having trouble with finding one. Where did you get yours? Thanks. Tom
Thank you, Tom! They are fairly common, several sellers will have them. Here's mine: www.amazon.com/Keyless-Drill-Chuck-Morse-Taper/dp/B00JVUIS40/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1QU23SSTSC8EB&dchild=1&keywords=morse+taper+drill+chuck&qid=1618452489&sprefix=morse+taper+%2Caps%2C237&sr=8-9
I kinda like it a lot !!!!!!!!!!! Thanks
I'm kinda glad, Scarlette! 😊
Hey Phil, if you keep saying that it’s ugly people are going to start to think that it’s ugly! LoL I actually think it’s really nice and very different to anything I’ve ever seen before a beautiful piece of art. Well done. 📐💜📐
PS: I was thinking the whole time to take the bark off. But in the end it sort of did it for you. You had the best of all out comes.
Well, Cathy, while I'm working and talking to the viewers, I try to think about what they are thinking about and looking at this piece, I was sure some thought it was just too ugly to continue. I'm glad it turned out and very glad you like it, thank you so much!

Larry, my lathe is a Jet 1840. It can handle pieces 18" in diameter and 40 inches long. Thank you, I'm glad you like this!
Phil
Das sieht spitze aus 👌👏
Schön, dass es dir gefällt, danke! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Deine Arbeiten gefallen mir immer! Einfach schön was Du machst 👍👋
It is beautiful in its Oddness
Haha, a good way to put it, Jody! 😊
Hey bud, still watching. Good stuff! I would've liked to have seen what was under that bark too.
I hope this note finds you well....
Thanks, Tommy! 😊
Hi Phill like your work, just wondering the finishes you put on are they food safe .
Thank you, Michael! I'm not an expert but it's my understanding that all modern finishes are food safe once they have cured. It's the lead in the old finishes that made them unsafe. But, like I said, I'm not an expert so buyer beware, I guess.
Phil
Nice job. Remember worm holes rule.
There you go, George! Thank you, buddy!
Phil
Thank You Phil....Alder, I have never used or have seen before that I know about. The bark kinda looks like Live Oak but the wood reminds me of Birch??( as u can tell I am not good with wood). Phil I liked this one especially because it shows how you worked out problems as the piece progressed, so I consider this video one of your best from a viewers point of view...(the big mystery question > will Phil turn a tiny bowl from that 1" piece he cut off ???..ha)...Sooo Phil I will have to give this one 2 thumbs & 2 big toes UP....Please keep them coming....tm
Thank you so much, Jeff! What a great comment to wake up to this morning! Hey, put those toes away, buddy, thumbs will do, nicely! LOL!
Phil
My biggest problem is which tool to chose when I’m turning. Basically I use the sharpest.
Sharp is good! 😊
The bottom is good, the top (plan view) is not very good but the sides are amazing you pulled it out of the bag Phil.
You like it, you don't like it? LOL! Well, you watched and let me know how you feel, Mike, much appreciated!

I see the concept you are using with the spongy paint brush. How about using the same concept with sandpaper wrapped around a small drill bit or small "tubular" shaped sander or something like that. the only thing that comes to mind is a manicure tool that grinds down the surface of a fingernail. Using something like that with the paper wrapped around will help keep the paper on instead of it sliding off the wedge of the paint brush. I hope I'm making sense. Dan Preece uses something like this in his turning videos.
I appreciate the time you spent thinking about this! The real problem is nothing here is round. There are projections inside and outside of the gap between the bowl and the bottom. It's not possible to hold the sanding piece in any manner that doesn't get hit. If it was smooth it would be easy and your ideas would work. 😊
Wonder how it would look without the bark?
Naked? 😀 I guess we'll never know, Don.
Love it.
I'm glad, Red, thank you!
Phil
I like it.
😊
I like it. Bad dream bowl was better.
Ditto and ditto, Michael! Thank you for your concise, considered comment!
Phil
It’s different and I like different.
😊
Awesome
Thank you again, Donald!
Phil
Well ya sure showed that piece of junk wood 'Whose Boss'??...Phill is the 'boss'!!..Yes sir!....Just put it on the lathe and make your decisions as you go along??. Great phillosophy!!..Ya,dats it. Phil-o-sophy we'll have to call it?,,Any piece of junk wood will do??.Great decisions all the way through?.Great Job Phil.
Hahaha! "Phil-o-sophy" I might just have to steal that, Brendan! What a great comment, thank you for getting my day started off on the right foot!
Phil
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop "PHIL" was the easy part !....."SOPHY"Um??, ...Remember when we took our classical Greek courses in school??, (ye right??) (last time I saw school I was 14 years old!)...Anyhowsomever, "SOPHY" CAN apply to the amalgagram, it means ;Science.!....Now what could be more scientific than taking a chunk of burnt out forest tree root or a misshapen and cracked slab of firewood and turning them into amazing works of art??...Relatively useless remnants of NATURE combined with a healthy infusion of fearless human spirit reveals to us the oft neglected art within!!... Keep that 5/8th bowl gouge sharp and busy Phil. You are a TRUE inspiration!! Brendan.
I like it
Thank you, Ernest, I'm glad you like it!
Phil
man phil that sure was one ugly bowl starting out . what a trouble maker to . one of those murphy's law bowls . but in the end it turned out pretty cool . good job brother .
Hey, thank you, DDM! Yeah, I was right there with you as far as ugly but it did turn out OK, for which I'm eternally grateful! LOL!
Phil
Someone will love it. Lol
?
sweet
Thank you, Shirley! 😀
Well my young friend ,what does one say ? You started with a piece that can only be described as akin to a dirty warthog ,and ended with--not quite a butterfly!! I must say it has character but only as captain AHAB in moby dick ,but you have the patience of a saint ,10 out of 10 ,it would have been fire fodder in my hands. Well done,stay safe 🦖
Hahaha! There's my Arturo! Love reading your entertaining comments! I'm really glad you like this one!
Phil
🙂

Generally, I love your ideas. This one, however . . . well . . . . . everyone does things differently, right? If you get a chance to do another similar piece with not exactly nice looking, tight bark, remove the bark *first*, then turn. When the bark is not attractive, the natural wood surface that is revealed will be phenomenal! It also can be oiled easily. Perhaps it's just a personal thing. Whatever you do, keep turning!
I do try to leave as much of nature in a pieces as I can and tend to leave even the less attractive features. I just can't help it but you are right, CC, everyone does things differently and that's what keep this old globe a turnin'! I will certainly keep turning! Thank your for taking your time to watch and let me know how you feel. Much appreciated!
Phil
What an ugly duck to start with, but one awesome piece in the end.
Can't argue with that, Gary, thank you!
