- I started this project and found the Flaming Box Elder blank to be very soft and full of bug holes. I decided to keep the holes and developed a naturally pierced bowl.

Nice piece! Worm holes give it lots of natural character! Thanks for a great video.
Thank you Peter and I agree with you on that and that is why I decided not to fill them. Glad you enjoyed this project.
I am glad that I found your channel again. I watched your videos all the time back before you took a break. That was back before the beard. 😊
Thank you very much. So glad to have you back. I took a break an Retired from my job, hence the beard. Firefighters are not allowed to have them for obvious reasons so that was my first goal after retirement. I have never stopped doing my videos but the channel has changed a little. Instead of only woodturning I am trying to show all my projects. I hope I can keep you interested. Take care and thank you again.
That turned out awesome really neat with the bug holes gives it character
Thank you Evin. Glad you enjoyed it my friend.
Another masterclass. Cheers from UK.
Thank you Roy. Glad you enjoyed this project my friend.
I like the name natural pierced. Great bowl
That was really good to see the other angle of the shear cut at about 10:00, thanks for that. You can see that you're on the bevel, just like you said, but also showed the really steep, almost vertical, angle of the tool. Great to see. (Also the ooopsie! glad I'm not the only one who does that every so often...) Thanks Stephen.
Thank you Rob. So glad you enjoyed this project. We do all have those ooopsie moments. LOL!! Lesson learned, "Tool on toolrest then cut)". Thank you and take care.
Wow. Very nice piece! Thanks for the lesson on stiffening and shearing.
Thank you Daryl. I have been using this method with different products for years. Sanding sealer is not required but seems to work best. I have used Tung Oil and Polyurethane with good results also. The idea is to just stiffen the fibers enough to cut. Glad you enjoyed this project my friend. Take care.
Just found this channel and enjoy your videos. Just started turning for a hobby and really appreciate the local hardware store products you feature. So many videos out there with the most expensive goods you can get. I try to keep at a hobby budget. Great looking bowl!
Thank you very much sir and I am glad you are enjoying my channel. I hope I can keep you interested. Take care.
Turned out to be a very nice bowl Stephen, thanks for sharing.
Thank you Larry. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Love the look of the bowl. Great choices
Thank you Debbie. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Great looking bowl Stephen.
Thank you Jack. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Nice piece, love flaming box elder. North of here in Canada they call it Manitoba maple! Be safe out there and cheers from MT.
Thank you very much. I knew it grew all over N. America but did not know what you call it in Canada. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Looks great, Stephen!
Thank you Billy. It is gone now. Sold first day! Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Great looking piece. Those bugs did as much work on that bowel as you did and I give them credit. lol. Good luck at the show. I had to give up shows but do get a lot of work privately.
Cheers,
Lee
Thank you Lee. Yes, those bugs worked overtime to make all these holes. LOL!! The show was a great success. I just got home from it and glad to let you know that this bowl now has a new home. Take care my friend.
@@StephenOgle Just great. That's the neat thing about turning.
Good luck selling at the craft show. I tell you that my customers are wanting vases made from weathered sun bleached driftwood. I just make sure to leave some of the weathered and the rest smooth with a light sheen. BLO for the rustic areas. Drill a 1 1/2" hole 6" deep for dry flowers.
Thank you James. I will look into drift wood. We have lakes around that are full of underwater trees from the creation of the lakes. There is always driftwood around there. Thanks for the tip. Take care.
Great job, beautiful work.
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Beautiful work!
Thank you Paully. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Excellent. The big trails do pose challenges but you came through them with flying colors. This is beautiful.
Thank you Doug. Glad you enjoyed it my friend. Take care.
Absolutely stunning bowl, trying to catch up since Hurricane Ida hit us dealing with getting house fixed but we are good
Man Donald. I hate to hear about that. It has now been raining here for about two weeks from those storms. Hope all is going as good as could be for you. Glad you enjoyed this project. All the best to you and your family.
work level. I will follow you to find experience.Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much. Glad you found this project helpful. Take care my friend.
Very cool bowl Stephen. Those bugs made a masterpiece. 🙂 Good luck at the show!
Thank you Dave. I like pierced woodturnings but the natural piercing just seem to look nicer to me. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care.
Good luck at the show.
Thanks for sharing!
That bowl looks great
Thank you very much. Take care.
Nice bowl...I have the same lathe you have...I love it...
Thank you Will. I agree they are fine machines. Take care my friend.
Huh …. “Naturally Pierced Bowl” ……. Stephen I like that. Sounds better than “worm eaten”….. may be the reason I have lost some sales! :) Great work and video ….. as usual.
Thank you John. Hope all is well with you and yours. Glad you enjoyed this project. Naturally pierced does sound a little more inviting I guess. LOL! You all take care.
Love seeing you back at the lathe lately. Iv followed for many years buddy, hope you're doing well
Thank you very much and I am doing very well thank you. Glad you enjoyed this project and my channel all these years. Take care.
Love the natural wormhole look on that box elder. Great choice of finish. I've learned to only use a water-based finish on colored and spalted wood. Oil-based finishes ruin the natural colors and they turn very yellow over time.
Thank you Greg. Glad you enjoyed this project. Take care my friend.
Very beautiful sir try ppg paint for your sanding sealer .have a great weekend
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed this project and thanks for the tip.
Hi Stephen! Always great to watch you work. Good tips on the Polycrylic for finishing. The area that I live in SW Ontario, we have a lot of Box Elder (or Manitoba Maple as we call it in Canada). Being able to enhance the red colour is always a bonus. I find that over time, the red turns brown, which is OK I guess but not quite as attractive. Do you know if there is a product for finishing that has a higher UV stabler that will slow down the colour change? Always appreciate your videos, and your personal style makes your projects easy to understand whether it is a wooden bowl or a great smoker! Thanks for sharing. As always - my best to you and your family. Stay safe my friend - Regards Dennis Beamish Cambridge Ontario Canada
Thank you Dennis. I am glad you said something about the color changing over time. I think I would maybe give a try to a good Spar Varnish. They designed for marine use and usually have some UV protection. May be worth a try. All the best to you and your family also my friend. Take care.
Beautiful bowl. I love the finish.
Could you have used an air brush or spray attachment for applying to polycrylic?
Good luck with your craft show.
Cheers
Ben
Thank you Ben. Glad you enjoyed this project. Spraying would have been much easier to use even from a rattle can. I just am not set up to spray Polycrylic and did not have the rattle can available either. As far as an Air Brush, I believe you could do it, if it was thinned correctly, but you should be quick because you need the wet edge and this stuff cures pretty fast. Thank you for your suggestion and take care.
you like this lathe i thank i might get one like it
I'm fairly new to lathe work and I've struggled with what to do about bug holes. Do I plug them or leave them? Contrast or match? Clean the "digested wood" out or solidify it wIth thin CA glue?
Thank you Loren. Glad you enjoyed this project. To fill or not to fill. I normally fill the holes with some filler such as sawdust, or coffee grinds and CA glue. Sometimes I will use dyed epoxy. Truth is, there really is no answer, It is all up to you. Wish I could be more help on this subject. Just follow your instincts for what you think will look good. Take care.
@@StephenOgle Depending on what I'm doing I may use glitter mixed in epoxy, or sawdust/shavings with CA
End grain on boxelder is BAD for tear out
Thank you and believe me I know what you are talking about. Glad you enjoyed this project.
