About

Welcome to Square and level, my name is Scott. Turning wood to saw dust and constantly cleaning my shop takes up the majority of my free time. Making unique pieces from scrap wood and resin is what I like best. If you enjoy the process of blank preparation and turning this is the place for you, thanks for visiting! @superclearepoxypartner DISCLAIMER : Woodturning and woodworking can be dangerous, When using any tools/machinery always read & understand the manufacturer's guidelines & safety instructions.

Video Description

I have had these Olive wood logs for a while now and have been saving them for something special. This is an amazing wood to turn. Besides for the stunning wood grain, it smells very pleasant and is a joy to work with. A few weeks back my friend Mike Holton posted a video of a bowl he made from Jarrah Burl wood and resin. I loved the shape and just couldn’t get it out of my head when thinking of what to make next. So I asked Mike if he would be okay with me attempting a similar design. He said he would be honoured. This is probably my favorite piece I’ve made to date. I really like the unique shape and the contrasting colors of the wood and resin. Unfortunately it is difficult to capture the true beauty of this piece on camera. The resin looks very dark but is actually quite translucent in person. Thank you very much for letting me borrow your design Mike. Much appreciated. And thank you so much for watching. If you are interested in watching Mikes video I will leave a link below. I hope you have a wonderful day.
