- This grain is amazing! In this video, I turn a maple burl and Bubinga box with a sphere finial. I make the bowl and sphere shaped finial from maple burl, and the lid from Bubinga, also called African Rosewood.
This video is shown in my normal format of regular speed mixed with high speed scenes. My goal is to show the viewer the realities of turning while also showing as much of the project as I can within reason.

Beautiful bowl the grain is stunning. I'm glad I found you. I'm very partial to watching Andy Phillips. But now I'm subscribed to you as well. Your voice is incredibly soothing and I love that you highlight the work of others that is very kind of you. I'm glad to be here. Thanks for having me 🤗
Everything you show is a gem.To be so in love with what you do,is a testament for the ones watching. Wish your viedos were longer. My coffee gets cold because I'm mesmerized by what's happening.
Rod stunningly beautiful, magnificent and spectacular grain. It is an excellent lidded box. Thank you Semper Fi my friend, God bless you and your family a thousand fold and keep you safe through every promise in Psalm 91.
Good morning Rod. Thanks again for a great video. What I learned today.....You don't need a bunch of tools to get the job done. Sometimes I feel like I'm watching an advertisement for woodturning tools rather than a video on how to turn something. Also, learned more on your finishing process. Looks great. Stay safe, stay away...stay 6' away. thanks again.
The maple burl is stunning. The markings make the piece. The bubinga compliments it so well. The overall look of the bowl is beautiful. It is a different shape than the usual lidded bowls.
The grain in that big leaf maple is gorgeous! This is truly a work of art. Beautiful bowl.
Might be the prettiest bowl to date, Ron. Just beautiful. Thank you for sharing your work!
Love the colors in the wood. Beautiful
An older gentleman told me when I was really young, "There's a beautiful piece of art in every piece of wood, you just have to find the right method to get to that art."
Rod,
Another beautiful piece 😋. I found myself smiling from beginning to end. I watch more than one turning video, but for many reasons yours are the ones I enjoy the most.
Thank you.
Keep the aspidistra flying!

Very nice. Thanks Rod. I don't know if you realize how helpful these videos of yours are to a novice like me.
Amazing is the best description for this bowl and its grain pattern!!! Beautiful.
Wonderful projects sent in by your subscribers.
Stay safe and healthy. God bless.
Absolutely beautiful wood turned to highlight what natured grew! The bowl lid and finial is outstanding! God works through you!
Beautiful work, Rod! I love the shapes you came up with and, as always, I find your narration to be one of the most enjoyable of any other woodturning channel. Thank you for sharing and providing calmness during such weird times!
You sanded up to 1200 and it shows!! Beautiful Rod!!!
Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up
Another master piece. I'm sure many people have told you before that you are a very talented man. The brilliant work you create is outstanding. You inspire other people. In my opinion, you are a master at what you do, Mr. Humphrey. Keep up the amazing work. Stay safe out there. Furthermore, I enjoy seeing you create and listening to your explanation on how you do things. Thanks for everything, sir.
It’s cute, the grain is amazing, and I really like the little “top knot”!
patricia here... that work of art has sooooooo much personality!
The maple burl and bubinga woods look very nice together. Love your work.

Two beautiful types of wood coming together to make a equally incredible bowl. The grain patterns of each piece, and the maple, it has at least two different patterns in it. Birds eye and fiddle back. Combine the two with a masters touch and you have a awesome bowl!
I'm so blessed by your outstanding craftsmanship. It is always a great pleasure to see such amazing workmanship look so easy. We both know that it is years of commitment and determination that makes it look easy. Semper Fi my brother and I pray that the Lord bless you and keep you in all your ways, and causes His face to shine upon you and your family, in Jesus name amen 😇🙏✝🇺🇸
Burls are so beautiful! I like the eye patterns in some burls.
Gorgeous!! Favorite woodturning channel by far!!
A beautiful work of art The wood is stunning in its beauty, I thank you very much for sharing, I enjoyed watching the video.
beautiful box 😃😃Thank you much for sharing, stay safe 😃
Lovely work. I love watching the videos and I am learning a lot. I am still very much a novice but love the finished results on wood turning and the satisfaction. Gives me something to do to take my mind off lock down and hopefully build up some stock in the process.
WOW!!! Beautiful burl and that grain is unbelievable. Such a awesome job on the bowl. And on the lid. I do the same thing taking a corner piece and making a knob or fineal. Everything came out spectacular. Great job Rod. Definitely one of your top 5 👍. ✌️💙
Beautiful grain, great work. Very nice wood really looks great together. Be safe! Beach, NC

That piece is stunning Marine! You’ve gone and blown my mind again with your craftsmanship!
I love it. Jealous of the Burl wood. Hope you and your family are keeping safe.
Thank you! Hope the same for you and yours.
Gorgeous piece(pieces)! I'm a fan of the big leaf maple as I have a yard full of them. They also make great maple syrup.

Awesome looking box. Love how you made it. Great video.
I think it is absolutely great. I would like to know why people give it a thumbs down, I don’t understand.
Love the different types of wood. Such beautiful grain!
Thanks so much!
Hi Rod, Beautiful. Aristotle said it first but I think it is so appropriate for this piece. "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts". Take care Rod. Cheers, Huw

Beautiful bowel and lid from start to finish Semper Fi

Excellent work as usual.
Beautiful as always!
That turned out beautiful Rod. That box has a little of everything in the grain. I'm green with envy. I've been trying out the bowl gouge as a scraper. So far I've been able to fix all the catches but by golly I'll get it!
Another lovely piece of work.
Great looking piece, nicely done. Cheers and stay safe from MT
Its really different. I like it! Well done!
