Ugly Duck To Regal Swan - Mulberry - Wood Turning
One of my most difficult pieces for a long while. Very hard wood, lots of inclusions, voids, etc. to deal with. Sanding was the worst! But, in the end, all my effort was worth it. A very beautiful show piece!

Fruitless mulberry, fruitful work. It's a beautiful bowl. The grain is fabulous. Thank you to Tuffy for sending and to you for sharing. See you soon.
And, Thank you for watching! Cheers! 😊
Nature is beautiful, thanks for letting the wood speak.
Thanks for watching, Charles! 😊
Again the way you cut into this the grain pattern is gorgeous. I watch two of your videos while my meds kick in and I drift off to sleep every night. Thank you.
I hope it's the meds putting you to sleep and not me, Susan! LOL!
A super bowl Phil. The shape, grain, and everything. Well worth the trouble you took to get it done.
Thank you, Marge! 😊
Indeed, an extraordinary and very shiny piece came out, you're really right about the sanding, it makes all the difference!👍👍👍
😊
Hi Phil. Absolutely Stunning, Tuffy provided the wood, you provided the Magic. God bless, stay safe. Tony
Thank you, Tony! 😊 Cheers!
This is a bowl you can EAT! Fabulous.
Thanks, Jim! 😊
I absolutely agree with leaving the whole in the bowl. It is what it is. It is beautiful
I'm glad, Gary, thank you!
Mulberry is such a beautiful and interesting grain. I love the end result of this piece.
😊
This bowl is even more impressive the second time watching it. So much to appreciate about it. Just beautiful. You create amazing art!
I'm so glad you like it, too, thank you! 😊
Good for apples, oranges etc, not so much for M&M's ----- BEAUTIFUL--- GREAT JOB
There you go, Jackson! Thank you! 😊
I just came from work and watched the video. It's very relaxing to watch your workmanship. Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you, Justin! 😊
That's a fantastic way to put fruit on a fruitless tree. Beautiful piece!
It really is! Thanks, Jussi! 😊
wow!!! the grain in this is so unbelieveable!! thanks for sharing this with us..
My pleasure, Ruthe! 😊
That piece was you at your finest Phil.
Thank you so much, Dennis! 😊
Phil Great work, looks really natural . Thak you for showing us 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My pleasure, Douglas, thank YOU for watching and commenting!
That's what I love about your work. You see the pieces as living things, not just hunks of wood. Very beautiful!
Yes! Thank you, Karen! 😊
Such a unique center piece. Your right a fruit bowl or conversation starter. Beautiful..
😊
Yes it is beautiful. The holes are part of the beauty. You're a master!
Thank you so much, Karen! 😄
I very much agree that the wood will tell you what it wants to be. I enjoy the pieces of wood that look like hell that most people would not want and just create a one of a kind bowl.
Those are my favorites too, Matt! 😊
You've become my 'go to' woodturner. Beautiful bowl and grain. 👍👍
Wow, thanks! 😊
OMG….its a BEAUTY!!!
Yippppeeee, thank you!
Phil, I am so glad I found your videos. Your commentary makes your work even better. Keep it up!
Glad you like them, Dustin, thank you for taking your time to watch and comment!! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Thanks Phil. I really want to start practicing bowl making, so watching videos like yours really helps. I just do pens at the moment.
I agree that the textures of a bowl like that are very important. The differences between the smooth and craggy surfaces are a large part of its beauty. Gorgeous bark.
We absolutely agree, Patrica. Thanks for watching!
I absolutely love it. The colors and grain is so pretty. If i had it i would use it as a yarn bowl, so my yarn wouldn't roll on the floor. God bless you Phil.
Great idea! Could you feed the yarn though the hole, Bonnie?
I look forward to Thursday evenings. I do some turning then check out your latest turning. Another beautiful piece Phil.
Thank you kindly, Peter! 😊
Well worth the effort... I love it! Nature can be beautiful and that piece is proof of that! 👍🏻🤗
Thank you, I appreciate your comment! 😊
Worth the effort? Absolutely! Awesome!
Yay, thank you, Stuart! 😊
I love it - too see you how you play with what nature had given you in the piece. This is real artist work.
Thank you, Bruno, I'm glad you love it! 😊
Beautiful. 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely beautiful Phil!!!!!👍👍👍👍
Thanks a lot, Jack! 😊
I think the hole adds a lot of character. Beautiful bowl Phil
Me too, John, thank you! 😊
Phill, you always manage to make something beautiful out of something most would pass up. I am starting to eye my sons pile of seasoned firewood.
YES! There is no such thing as firewood, Karl, if you have a lathe! 😊
Another great video. Keep ‘em coming.
Thanks, Tom, will do! 😊
My favorite so far!!!
Cool, thanks, Mary! 😊
Good evening, Phil. That piece had me scratching my head but look what you made. Excellent! I watch Kismey as well and enjoy everything about his videos. Keep the shavens flying.
Many thanks, Ray! 😊
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching, Adam! 😊
Yep. Love it just as it is! Your patience is amazing!
Thank you Guitar Man! 😊
That grain is stunning 🤩 and very unique
Agreed, Tracey! 😊
A BIG WOW!!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, James! 😊
Mulberry from Tuffy is much more beautiful with every next project. I think this is one of Your bestest bowls, Phil 👌 Totally is not looking like a wood, more like a marble. Please, don't stop surprising me 👍
Thank you very much, Rav! 😊 How's the moving going?
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Most of my stuff is here now. Packing boxes was easy but unpacking takes a time especially when the house is smaller than my previous flat. In next week I should start setting up the shed and the lathe so maybe I will turn something small 😀
Beautiful wood and a talented turner. Thank you for sharing.

Very expressive wood. Thank you Tuffy! Truly did not know what shape you would end up with when you started. So much ugly stuff to go through to get to the good stuff.
It did take a while to get there, Valerie, but worth it in the end. 😊
Absolutely Gorgeous!

Phil this is a gorgeous shape..I love your natural bowls.I know they are a little harder work but they look so natural ,and as you say the bowl comes out of the wood so you don’t even know what shape it will be.This is one of my favourites .Suits the grain to ,and the finish looks amazing 🥰

A totally awesome creation.
Glad you think so! Thank you, Jeanette! 😊
