Woodturning - Firewood Mould To Wooden Gold

Update - I am planning a giveaway when the channel reaches 500 subscribers. Just add a comment to the video to be entered into a draw and you will receive one of the pieces I make. I have something special planned for the giveaway piece! Make sure you also subscribe and give the video a thumbs up so we can get to that number quicker!

Ever wondered what can be done with a piece of firewood covered in mould? Watch my latest woodturning exploits as I take a piece of wood destined for the fire and transform it into a bowl. This is only the 3rd bowl I've ever turned so I am still learning the techniques, but overall I am happy with the end result.

Ben's Got Wood
A bit about me - my name is Ben and this channel is documenting my very first attempts at woodturning. As a beginner, I'm eager to explore the art of shaping wood into beautiful, functional pieces through the mesmerising process of woodturning.

Through trial and error, I'm learning valuable lessons and gaining insights that will shape my skills. If you are a seasoned woodturner, I'd appreciate any help and guidance along the way - I know I have a lot to learn!

Here are some of my videos so far! -    • Woodturning - Shedding Light On What'...  

Thank you for being a part of this incredible experience!

Please note my videos are for entertainment purposes only and are not meant as instructional videos. I am not a professional woodturner and some of the techniques I use are trial and error and probably not correct - in fact I'm surprised I still have all my fingers! I hope you enjoy the videos!
