Good afternoon all, Here is the video I promised of me working on the big burl bowl. I got it down t where it would stay together and not loose to much of the good stuff! I started sanding on it today and it will take a while to get it right so I can put some sort of finish on it. Here is the link:

Looks really good Jeff! Sometimes you have to keep things a little thick just so it will stay together! This is one of those times! Nice work!

That's a good one Jeff. You really pushed it to the limits. Any thinner and it probably would've exploded on you. Good job with the Duct tape too.:cool::cool:

PS- I hope you weren't planning on using that as a sink:D

So glad to see you went with the duct tape! Doubt that baby would have held together otherwise! What a great looking piece!!

That's amazing Jeff. I can't believe you were able to keep it from breaking apart on the lathe. Incredible work. Thanks for posting the video.

Impressive turning and a very instructive video. Thanks for posting it. Keeping that piece together was a real feat.

Well done!

Nice job given what you had to work with it is quite impressive you held it together.

Went back and watched it again and thought I would comment on the video. I would offer there is too much transitions in the production of it. I use transitions in my slideshows but I have found they are distracting when used too much. I would increase the dwell time on the last few pics of the finished piece as well.

Thanks again for producing and sharing it Jeff.

Mark, I did the shooting of the video myself and there was lots of boring dead time of me just turning. So to get it cut down to less than 10min we added some fun inbetween the places where I was not talking and was talking. Usually my buddy helps me with the taping and it works out better. We are planning a funny video soon so it will be cool so stay tuned!
