Woodturning a Big Oak Log (Simple and Beautiful)

Welcome to today's woodturning project! I this video I am turning this big oak log into a simple, but beautiful bowl. I also used some resin to fill the cracks and holes in the log. For the finish I used Danish oil.
Hope you enjoy the video!

At first, I was so excited to see the large piece of wood you were working with. I thought that it would make a beautiful bowl without using epoxy. I find most woodturning now uses lots of epoxy. Then I saw you using it and I was disappointed. However, that changed when I realized that you were just using it to fill very small imperfections. The bowl is gorgeous!! One of the nicest that I have seen. Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely stunning. I think sometimes people get caught up in exotic woods and forget how beautiful pieces like oak can be.

You made a beautiful bowl out of that gnarly piece of oak

Love the intense dark colours of the wood, and the resin ended up looking like kintsugi! 😍

[johnhartman]

It is one of a kind. The resin actually looks natural rather than glitzy. Thanks

Awesome work, thanks for recording such a feat. God bless. Jesus loves you!

Truly a work of art…taking firewood and making a treasured piece.

Wow, that's pretty. And no exotic wood, colored resin, or fancy pattern. I used to dabble in hand carving. I loved working with walnut. Trying to get back into my art. Love seeing the different colors and grains of the wood.

WOW ! That is fantastically beautiful ~ !

A workman is only as good as his tools, they say, and you have some marvellous ones. But it's you skill using them and your ability to see the final product when your making it which astounds me.

Beautiful, rich colors! A wonderful piece!

Wow the pop of the wood after the finish was on was amazing, such a great bit of wood for this project.

[TheMimiSard]

Ugh, so many comments complaining about the epoxy being a waste! If it means no holes, it was used right!

¡Qué impresionante trabajo de torneado de madera! El manejo de este tronco de roble es simplemente fascinante. Me encantó ver cómo se transformó en una pieza tan hermosa y elegante.

Fantastic bowl. I really enjoyed watching and thanks for no useless conversation. I found it inspiring! Thank you!!!

[ericharvey]

When you put the finish on the bowl it really made it pop, the colouring is superb.

Beautiful bowl. Oak is so overlooked, even by me. Every time I turn oak I wonder why I don’t turn more of it. Super job.

[JamesCouch]

Beautiful 👍. I love to turn oak but it is very prone to cracks. The resin was a nice touch.
