I like it. I wish I had 10 pieces, all identical to the one in this video. I would distribute them to 10 wood artists like you and give them no instruction other than “make a bowl”. I’d love to see how the others would deal with finding the rotten knot. A lineup of the finished bowls would illustrate a fraction of how many ways their are to solve the same issue. I always enjoy your videos and your unique approach. Please keep em coming. Thanks. 🥸👍🪵💥❗️✅
Someone suggested your videos because of your sophisticated editing. Not only did I see beautiful editing but I stumbled upon a very, very talented woodworker/turner in action. That is a beautiful bowl.
Magnificent bowl. I especially liked the additions of the bottom and partial top. Watching how you just seamlessly create from seemingly nothing is a wonder to behold. Really enjoy learning from you.
Surprised to see that knot totally rotted out. It didn't look that bad from the outside. Not much of a hint that you could see. A lovely form here. Thanks for sharing!
I've been watching since about 2018. I love all of your videos, but I've definitely missed bowl videos like this. You always have such a cool way to take something unusable and turn it into something beautiful.
Fantastic Frank! Now here's one for ya: Make a sphere of Jupiter with its bands and storms and aurora and the great red spot! The eyes and swirls in your bowl made me think of that. -fixie
Beautiful piece, Frank -- I love the thinness and flare of it, and I always admire the creativity you use to problem-solve. There's something oddly animated to those little clip clamps -- kind of like the spider robots in Minority Report.
I really like how the top edge lines ended up continuing the bottom lines. It gives it a look like they're almost moving through the inside of the bowl. And, the mistake you made was thinking "this will be quick." That tells the universe to add stuff to your project! 🤣
Anyone else hear the familiar squeak of the walking clamp of the outro and be entertained by it and simultaneously sad that the video is over? Me, every time.
Very nice; beautiful shape and dimensions. For my taste, maybe a slightly darker overall stain to show the swirling grain pattern more, and to contrast a little less with the darker strips you glued in - just a thought.
I have a feeling that a much thinner bowl would look and feel so much better. Let's say 1cm thick. Is that possible to turn? If not the whole bowl, at least the very rim, so it looks like the sides are very thin.
Excellent vid as always Frank! A trick I've used for slippery glue ups like your segmented edge wedge is to sprinkle a few grains of table salt into the wet joint, which adds a little traction owing to the cube shape of the grains. So far I haven't seen any downsides with the tiny amount I've used. I think it dissolves into the wet glue. Cheers!
Frank, I love that you’ve taken what I call a squirrel* project and made it into an heirloom. Just gorgeous. (*When I’m in the middle of a long or tedious project and I see something that looks quick and fun, I’m like a dog that’s just sniffing along and then sees a squirrel. I laser focus on the new, shiny project. It’s not an insult.😂)
How many bowls do you have at home? Whenever I see you turning yet another bowl I just imagine you guys walking around and tripping on piles upon piles of bowls.
Creative use of the piece of wood. Hopefully the bottom stays together. Typically you shouldn’t glue wood that comes to a point. There’s no place for the wood to move.
Feels like you always cut the bases of your bowls really small. it might look nice but it's quite unsatisfying in terms of stability of the final product. Seems like they'd get knocked or tipped over very easily.
Wife: "Frank could you go and make an other leg for the table today?" Frank: "Sure, I'll start right away" *a few hours later* Frank: : "Look at this nice bowl I made today" Wife: "So where is that leg you promised me?" Frank: "uhm, I must have left it in the shop somewhere...., let me go get it" *goes and makes the leg*

This is my 1st comment of any sort on anything on You Tube___”you sir are simply the best”!
Most well shot and edited videos on TH-cam.
You inspire my retired life. giving me endless ideas of things I can do next. Thanks
Your “1-2 hour side project” is way better than any project i could ever do. Awesome!!!!
I've been watching your videos for years, and this is one of the most beautiful bowls I've ever seen you make! Wonderful
Likewise
The 'contouring' and coloring in the wood are very aesthetically pleasing
Franks voice is the calm I need to face the world. Thanks Frank.

I like how the segments at the top edge add the feeling of continuity from the part at the bottom.
So much for simple but then this is “simple” for your skill level. Thanks for the video!
Beautiful bowl
I don't think that there isn't anything you can't do with wood. You are my woodworking idol for that reason. This is a great example.
I like how you celebrate defects and mishaps, instead of trying to hide them.
Someone suggested your videos because of your sophisticated editing. Not only did I see beautiful editing but I stumbled upon a very, very talented woodworker/turner in action. That is a beautiful bowl.
Yes, thank you for the totorial reminder needed to be fluient when turning original desighn ideas.😉
Great bowl and info!!
It's always a pleasure watching you create the pieces in your shop. Keep them coming!

If i ever win the powerball, i will get me a shop like yours. Thanks for another nice video. 👍
Very nice turning and cleaver idea to add the contrasting color to the maple.
Magnificent bowl. I especially liked the additions of the bottom and partial top. Watching how you just seamlessly create from seemingly nothing is a wonder to behold. Really enjoy learning from you.
Making the best out of a bad situation, thanks for sharing. Charles
Great film. Defects can be the source of creativity. Gorgeous bowl. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Amazing results, video production and explanation.
Amazing that this was just a “spur of the moment” project too. Nice work again!
Great way to salvage that knot, Frank. Looks really nice.
Bill
What a clever idea. Much more interesting than resin 🌞
Amazing. This bowl turned out beautifully. The segmented sections REALLY add to the bowl. Incredible.
That was a fun one to watch. Seeing you overcome issue after issue and have a wonderfully creative solution was heartening.
Very nice. Always enjoy your videos and your commentary. Thank you
Frank- thank you for another video to help with my weekend Zen! So so inspirational. Amazing
Turned out real nice. Thanks for sharing
Surprised to see that knot totally rotted out. It didn't look that bad from the outside. Not much of a hint that you could see. A lovely form here. Thanks for sharing!
Great to see some turning! Love seeing Frank woodturning.
Love how this turned out
I've been watching since about 2018. I love all of your videos, but I've definitely missed bowl videos like this. You always have such a cool way to take something unusable and turn it into something beautiful.
Lovely shape and contrasts!
As usual, just beautiful Frank
The way you said "normal" so casually to mean "perpendicular" made my physics/math heart sing.
Very pretty project, Frank. Congrats.
Very nice project, thanks for sharing!
The concepts you dream up always amaze! Could watch your videos 2-3 times a week! Great job!!!!!

You never cease to amaze me!
Frank: oh a knot that seems like something fast and fun to play with
Knot: challenge accepted >;-)
Really beautiful work, Frank! It looks amazing! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Beautiful as always, Frank.
The one turned out really great!
Best bowl ever! Love it!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍❤️
I haven’t got a lathe, but I thoroughly enjoy watching you use one. Regards
I really like the design! Great work!
Anyone else hear the familiar squeak of the walking clamp of the outro and be entertained by it and simultaneously sad that the video is over? Me, every time.
I love how you always find room in your project book for every little scrap piece! 😊
Nice looking bowl Frank, like the bottom shape to it
It was nice meeting you at Winco. 🥳
you sculpted around a knot to come to a design. I like it.
Beautiful and interesting process🇨🇦
You nearly had a lampshade there before it turned back into a bowl😄
Birdy
Came out nice. 👍
Beautiful bowl! When I get my new lathe mounted (I moved shops) I will try something like this.
looks really good
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I see Frank video; I click.
Same!
me too. haven’t missed on since i started watching two years ago.
Beautiful 💜
Very nice; beautiful shape and dimensions. For my taste, maybe a slightly darker overall stain to show the swirling grain pattern more, and to contrast a little less with the darker strips you glued in - just a thought.
Nice. The swirls remind me of the surface of Jupiter.
I have a feeling that a much thinner bowl would look and feel so much better.
Let's say 1cm thick. Is that possible to turn?
If not the whole bowl, at least the very rim, so it looks like the sides are very thin.
Another awesome video!! Thank you!!
The more I see how you address imperfections, the more I realize that perfection is boring.
That's really neat!
I'm getting some real Laura Kampf vibes here "Oh, it'll just be a quick little project" and before you know it you're making major structural changes.
Nice transplants
I love this piece! I feel like the best things happen when you're forced to replace some of the original wood :)
That reminds me . I need to buy sandpaper. Cheers
Excellent vid as always Frank! A trick I've used for slippery glue ups like your segmented edge wedge is to sprinkle a few grains of table salt into the wet joint, which adds a little traction owing to the cube shape of the grains. So far I haven't seen any downsides with the tiny amount I've used. I think it dissolves into the wet glue. Cheers!
Always great!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I feel like the legs on the lego table would looker better if they also were based on lego bricks.
if only you tied the walnut into the maple bowl as well as the filled void section, perhaps break up that hard glue line
wow wow very nice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It was very Memphis 80s looking before you turned the wedge lol
Love it!
If you flip it over and put some googly eyes on it, he would look pretty good!
Frank, I love that you’ve taken what I call a squirrel* project and made it into an heirloom. Just gorgeous.
(*When I’m in the middle of a long or tedious project and I see something that looks quick and fun, I’m like a dog that’s just sniffing along and then sees a squirrel. I laser focus on the new, shiny project. It’s not an insult.😂)
That's exactly what this was, than it kept growing
Very nice
What a creative mind, please do another stop motion if your feeling up to it
How many bowls do you have at home? Whenever I see you turning yet another bowl I just imagine you guys walking around and tripping on piles upon piles of bowls.
The monolithic part reminds me of Jupiter.
good skills❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ i love this
Do you sell the bowls? If you don’t, I can only imagine how full your kitchen cupboards must be at this point
Creative use of the piece of wood. Hopefully the bottom stays together. Typically you shouldn’t glue wood that comes to a point. There’s no place for the wood to move.
Just watched a documentary on Howarth of London made woodwind instruments. Have you been holding out on us, Frank?
I think they call that "Curly maple"
How about a segmented bowl made out of burl pieces? A way to use burls that are too small to otherwise be used...
"Turned Out" not to be a knot bowl ... :) Great result ...
Feels like you always cut the bases of your bowls really small. it might look nice but it's quite unsatisfying in terms of stability of the final product. Seems like they'd get knocked or tipped over very easily.
A Hammond Glider saw?
Wow what a beautiful bowl !!
Why don’t you auction it off frank?
Maybe donate some of money to a charity?
I mean I would love to own a bowl like that.
I can really feel the sunken cost fallacy on this one. Still, the end product is always worth it it seems
Wife: "Frank could you go and make an other leg for the table today?"
Frank: "Sure, I'll start right away"
*a few hours later*
Frank: : "Look at this nice bowl I made today"
Wife: "So where is that leg you promised me?"
Frank: "uhm, I must have left it in the shop somewhere...., let me go get it"
*goes and makes the leg*
Yet Another Bowl?
Is that a Hammond Trim-o-saw?
Milwaukee Saw Trimmer Corp.
C and G sawliner
Would dovetails or tabs have worked for attaching the replacement wood on top? Would it have turned ok? Just curious.
should work, I like the idea.
