Turning The Most Beautiful Walnut - Square Blank To Square Rimmed Bowl - Copper Owl Woodturning

In this video, I turn a gorgeous piece of English Walnut into a square rimmed bowl. I believe this shape best shows off the most stunning grain of the wood and adds interest without taking away from the natural beauty. I hope you enjoy the video as much as I enjoyed making it.
Have a nice day.

[ZombieWoodturner]

thats a really nice piece! you did some great air turning. Nice work bud!

[gypsyrose]

I have no idea how wood turners/artists visualize what the wood can become--stunning!

[adgieem]

It’s beautiful. Well done. Fyi. I have found that when using pot holders to cushion/ hold my bowls to remove the tenons, it is much better then the nonslip carpet holders like the one you used. I used to use them too till I tried the pot holders.

[duaneheadworth]

Wow. Well done. I love all your decisions . How was the engraving / Etching done? It is incorporated so perfectly . Thanks for sharing !

[TimberToothpicks]

Really nice work! Could you be so good as to tell me what chisels you used? That was a great video. 1/2” Bowl gouge, ???

[croftracing]

Very nice job! What size was the bit you used to drill so it attached to your chuck?

[WoodWizardrybyColin]

What a Stunning piece of wood awesome work Rob Love that scraper did you make it yourself??

[ThePapa]

Nice one Rob! I really need to try some of that Walnut Oil. It looks so good when you put it on. Just not sure how long it stays looking like that?
