What can I say that hasn't been said? Your videos are addictive, your camera work is excellent, your talent and craftsmanship are unsurpassed, and your work it beyond beautiful. Thank you, sir.
Retired wood worker and finisher/ refinisher, 50 years in the business. Black palm is now my new favorite wood.!! I have seen it before but never worked it, but now, seeing it turned, and especially the intensely spotted end grain, which heavily reminds me of the coat of a "King cheetah" which is much more dense and figured the than the normal spotted cheetah, search on TH-cam if interested, ...I will soon be on a quest to obtain some of this beautiful wood for myself.!! Thank you so much for exposing me to it's precious heauty.!! Sincerely, Sam...
The black palm wood and inside design is out of this world. I watch a lot of wood turning channels and have never seen black palm before. Your goblets are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing your time and talent❣️
Dude you have improved so much, I still have the goblet you made me and I can see the improvements in the details and the types of wood you use. Your projects are becoming more ambitious than ever. Keep up the good work man.
I can see that the materials that you work with talks to you and that is what makes your work pieces of art and just something that was turned on a lathe! Beautiful, I love it!!
Well I must say from the start of this video to the end you had my attention. Your opening is just great and to end with the same skyline was just as great. Your choice of wood was spot on. I really did not catch what the stems were made from, but the spots in that wood look fantastic. I've never seen such beautiful wood as that. Your whole goblet when finished was just beautiful as well. You sir are a credit to your craft. Thank you for sharing this.

Hi David, amazing craftsmanship!!! I mean, to get all those goblets the same shape and form.... Congrats!!!!! Sycamore and the black palm wood, what a beautiful combination!!! Really marvelous!!!
Hi David....the goblets are beautiful...I love the black palm...and combined with the burr its stunning....I must get me some!! ..lovely video...great work...All the best.....Andy
David, outstanding results! I am in agreement on the turning qualities of the palm. Extremely hard wood, but very eye-catching! Really enjoying your channel! Keep up the great work.
The woods you’ve used in this video are stunning, so when you shape and wax them they become unbelievably gorgeous! Your skills are aboveboard and you are so talented that I believe the wood goes into shock! LOL You are amazing! Bravo!
Stunning pieces, the woods, design and craftsmanship! Your videos are so beautifully produced too. No words needed, just sit and bask in watching the tools working on the wood. Really, really enjoyable to watch.
@@DavidAdamsen I have a piece that I bought on-line. When I got it I was disappointed in it's look, so I put it on a shelf. It's been there for at least a year, but now I'm going to find to make with it.
LOL, I watched the video before I read your description. Yeah, I've worked with black palm ONCE. It is an absolute nightmare. Sure it's pretty, but if it isn't suddenly exploding off your drill press, it's exploding off your lathe. That's if you even get the tool to even bite the wood with any kind of consistency. Out of 4 trys, I made 1 pen. KUDOS for the work!
Again David.... those are just beautiful goblets. Loved your insight into using those wood species. Adds great contrast, and at the same time visually it pulls you in. Awesome job!!!!👍👍
John, thanks so much! This was a fun project! I had originally planned to use bloodwood for the base and the stems, but I realized it would be wasting too much wood. Plus, the spalting and black palm really complement each other. It was a lot more extra work than I bargained for LOL! Cheers! And Thank You again!!!!
Just happened across your videos. They’re so relaxing. I assume there’s a certain science to wood turning. But you have a real knack for highlighting the art of it. Cheers.
JUst beautiful! Interesting choice of woods, they compliment each other perfectly. I have never seen the black palm, I certainly will buy some of that. Keep up the great work, enjoy your videos!!
ACKS WOOD PASTE hi I’ve been turning for a year now I’ve been watching the results from your paste would be very interested to know if there is a supplier in Scotland thank you
@@brianmclaughlin2621 No Brian, we cant do the supplier in other countries, there are too many laws. We ship to Canada and the UK quite often if you want to write to our website I will explain. Thank you.
These are works of art, My Brother, without a doubt. Very beautiful, indeed. Again, the music was outstanding, as well. Lends to the work, so well, and creates extremely, soothing videos to watch. Thank You. My Best. Out.
Once again incredible tool handling, great choice of wood, superb finish and wonderful style! Your 2020 is already nicely creative! All the best from MT
Stunning. I think black palm wood is one of the most beautiful woods there is. I love the fact that the goblets are identical. That's an issue that i have and I've thrown away a few projects because I wasn't able to get them to match. Subscribed.
Holy cow. I just stumbled across this. What can I say? 1. Those goblets are stunning! 2. That black palm is a fascinating wood. Gotta get me some. 3. Your video, with the extreme close ups of tools cutting at regular speed is almost sensual. Subscribing!
Beautiful work once again David. 🤗 the grain on the black palm is incredible. Thank you for sharing your work. Best wishes from fife Scotland 🤗💕🏴
Wasn't sure those two different woods would look nice together but I guess that's why you're the craftsman and I subscribe to your channel... Lol. Your the best 👍🏼
Black Palm is so beautiful! The site I was on yesterday looking at and discovering exotic woods, I saw some black palm. I didn't get any because the description had me thinking it wouldn't be a good wood for working with hand tools. I just ordered a Dremel rotary tool this morning, though. Maybe I could try working it with the Dremel. I love the contrast in those goblets. You chose the perfect wood species combination for them!
Very nice work. The combination of the wood is excellent. I have a small piece of wood I have been wondering what it was. Sure looks like the black palm wood you used here. Great video, Gary

Wow thank you so much! It’s a blessing to turn!
The Black Palm is beautiful. I am amazed at your patience working with it. These are gorgeous!
I can see that the materials that you work with talks to you and that is what makes your work pieces of art and just something that was turned on a lathe! Beautiful, I love it!!
Thanks Robert I truly appreciate that!
It's amazing that you can turn an old piece of wood into something stunningly beautiful with a little creativity and TLC. Beautiful as always.
I am only add to all of my other comments, I consider you a “Master” in your craft. I didn’t know such talent existed.
Thank you, Christina. You’re very kind.

David, outstanding results! I am in agreement on the turning qualities of the palm. Extremely hard wood, but very eye-catching! Really enjoying your channel! Keep up the great work.
I love the way the timber shines in the lathe after a smooth gentle downhill cut. It's like it's already polished a bit.
Thanks. Yes, a proper push stroke while riding the bevel can leave a very smooth surface!
This Black Palm has an absolutely amazing texture! For the first time I see this species of wood and I am delighted with it.
Thank you so much, Jacek!
Those goblets are beautiful. I also love the grain of the black palm. Well done 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The woods you’ve used in this video are stunning, so when you shape and wax them they become unbelievably gorgeous! Your skills are aboveboard and you are so talented that I believe the wood goes into shock! LOL You are amazing! Bravo!
David you have such a gentle touch when you are carving small items. Im watching the video where you are making the glasses . Itz wonderful.
the burl is exquisite! Beautiful job! And the black palm is out of this world!
Thank you Jane!

I thoroughly dislike turning palm wood but I definitely love the result! Your goblets turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Take care, Dave
Thanks Dave!
Why do you dislike turning palm wood
Absolutely beautiful pieces David.

Thanks Dave!
Wow, just stunning pieces. That black Palm is amazing and it really sets the dark grain in the goblets off.
Thanks Chanda!

Stunning. I think black palm wood is one of the most beautiful woods there is.

Gorgeous work! Regards from far north California
That black palm is stunning wood; never heard of it before. Nice work!
Yes it really is unique stuff it’s essentially like straw that’s stuck together with cement. Incredibly hard and brittle.
Absolutely gorgeous!!
Thank you!
What a wonderfull pair of handmade art.
Thank you! ✌️
Just simply beautiful!

@@ndek458 Spot on!
Wow, again. They are lovely.
So good! I got lost in this video!
Thanks Shaun!
Stabilizing black palm helps a ton. Its's technically a grass like Bamboo is
Thanks for your comment, Rich. A few people have commented that, and I would have never thought of doing that. Makes sense though.
You sit, are a true artist!
Thanks Christopher!
Gorgeous. Great music too 💜

I couldn't make them match nearly as well. Thanks for the video
Cheers! It was difficult, but there are differences. Proves they were hand made! 👍
Beautiful brother!!
Thanks Eric.
Your pieces are amazing
Very nice work. The combination of the wood is excellent. I have a small piece of wood I have been wondering what it was. Sure looks like the black palm wood you used here.
Great video,
