Woodturning - a Black Walnut & Spalted Maple Bowl | Debbie says Wow!

Woodturning a black walnut and spalted maple bowl (or dish?) How to steps are shown using our Harvey Woodworking lathe. With special guest finisher, Debbie Sapper! Wood turning a bowl can be so rewarding. Join us for our adventure!

In today's video Debbie and I will demonstrate the steps we took to turn a random piece of black walnut and some scrap spalted maple pieces into a pretty cool looking utility bowl (or dish?) After the sanding was completed, the finishing process started with Debbie applying two coats of “grain popping” BLO (boiled linseed oil), followed by 5 coats of rattle can spray lacquer, hand buffing down each coat with 0000 steel wool. I followed her with a brief slow speed buffing on the lathe followed by a buffed on coat of Carnauba wax.
