Woodturning - You've Got to Love What You Can Do With Yew!

I was asked to make two cake stands by a colleague from my full-time job, she had many ideas but left me down to the final design. This was a bit of an experiment for me, as I wanted to try something I hadn't before by combining wood and epoxy in a river table style. The wood I chose was Yew, mainly for its unique wavy edges and bold colour.
The piece has been sanded to 10000 grit and finished with various food safe oils and wax.
The piece is approximately 23 x 12 cm.
Let me know what you think, and if you've got any ideas for the second cake stand!
I now have a website! I know it's taken a long time, visit it here: www.harrysmithwoodturning.com

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.

  • +1 for thinking that color was not going to work out and +1 for being surprised how great it looked when all was done. Thanks again for sharing your projects and talent.

  • I'm with a couple others who said they were not sure about the resin color at first, but it turned out complimenting the yew wood very well. So pretty!. I like the river style form as well.

  • I never question your choice of color or technique because it always works out in the end. Very nice cake plate. You made me LOL when you put the tiny mince pie on it. Thanks for the laugh.

  • Beautiful! I made a wand for my magical wife for Christmas. Half sapwood and half heartwood, tied a ribbon and bow around it and placed on a tree bough. Christmas morning when she took it down, it was curved! The wood had been cut for about 10 years, so it was well seasoned. Beautiful wood, though!

  • I’d ditch the gloves if I were you - if a glove catches on your work you can sustain a lot of damage to your hands. Never wear gloves near a spinning tool!
