Woodturning Olive Goblet - Yorkshire Grit Review

Hello, welcome back to my channel. In this week's video we're going to turn something out of this nice branch of olive and for the first time on my channel I'm going to use a product to apply a finish to the olive and we're going to see whether or not the olive creations that I usually do on my channel looks good even with a shiny finish on them. In order for us to achieve this goal I'm going to use this new product. This is Yorkshire Greet. It was sent to me by a friend in the UK. You can see all the details about this product down there in the video description as well as all the information about the music I'm using for my videos. So stay tuned and I hope something nice works inside this. So now you're a housewife with a place in Lake Cascade and your husband's an architect it sounds like you've really got it made is that your daughter in that picture she's got your pretty eyes blue she got your crescent moon smile and that curly blonde hair just like you okay so I finished roughing out this piece of branch and as you can see there is a promise of very nice grain here and very nice color half of it is bright and spalted and half of it is darker and has some interesting shapes and grain running through it and now is a very crucial point in this project since I'm going to try and hollow this out before I complete the outside form the problem is that olive is notoriously hard to hollow out I can sit on my porch and just watch the old sycamore grow thanks for coming now it's time for me to go I wish you the best for another 10 years down the road okay kind of like this so the reason I chose to go on and give this entirely thick lip this curve here is because I really like this little feature here this little piece of spalting the dark colors and I want to keep that so what I've decided is although my cup it will be small I'm going to flare it out a lot and have a wide lip just to maintain this this really beautiful grain here I hope you can see it yeah so before I go any further I'm quite happy with the depth I'm in and with the shape but there are a lot of cracks here I'm going to try and keep the CA as much along the cracks as possible so I wouldn't stain the other parts of the wood in fact I just might give it a little bit of oiling just so I will somehow prevent the CA from penetrating the wood where there isn't a crack well I've never tried that so let's just add oiling the piece before applying the CA to one of the things that I've never done and I'm trying on one of my videos I don't want to give it a lot of oil I don't want to soak the wood in I just want to give it a slight coating so if any of the CA runs over the wood there might be a chance that it won't soak into the grain but just remain on the surface again I have no idea if this is going to work I've never seen anyone do it even though it might be a very would be a good time to stop with that and start sanding this out I hope my method worked and it actually looked like it did because I don't see any staining of the CA on the wood itself so my next step would be to simply sand this out to 240 maybe 320 we'll see how the sanding goes and then we'll decide okay I have the inside of the goblet I now sanded it down to 320 now according to the instructions that came with the Yorkshire grit I'm supposed to apply a sanding sealer and let it cure and then apply the wax but since I don't have any sanding sealer of any kind at the moment I talked to Glyn the person that manufactured this and he told me that boiled linseed oil will work just the same the reason for the sanding sealer or in my case the boiled linseed oil to be applied before the wax is just to prevent from the wood from leaching out the oils from the wax and the oil is needed to be a medium for the powder that does the actual sanding so let's apply a layer of the boiled linseed oil and then give it a couple of minutes to soak in and start applying the wax and see what it does I'm going to leave it a couple of minutes to soak in and then I will wipe off the excess and then I will start with the wax okay it's been a couple of minutes and I've already wiped off the excess I think that would be a good foundation for applying the wax so using a paper towel I will work the wax into the wood and after I've worked it enough into the wood and around I will start rubbing it under power and that is when the sanding process is so let's open this thing together okay this is the wax itself as far as I can tell no particular order and that is actually a welcome change from the from the abrasive wax I usually use the triple e which smells like a gas station so I'm going to take a small amount like so and work it into the wood and it feels kind of gritty you can tell that there's some kind of powder in there maybe I'm using too much I will simply wipe off some of the excess okay now it says to start the lathe at a low speed my lowest speed is around 500 rounds per minute so that would have to be the speed I will send and I will start working the wax into the wood using the same piece I've used to apply the wax Yskif has left his job ran out of black keys to fleece and I see the red moon rise we have something to look at now I need a pocket to hold keep my change okay the next step would be to remove the residue so I will take a clean piece of paper and I will take the speed of the lathe up and I will continue rubbing the surface and the wax until my paper towel doesn't take any of the wax out if you look at that that is just nice that is just nice it feels perfectly smooth if you look at that that is a glass surface I hope this comes out well in the video absolutely beautiful I don't think I've ever seen olive this shiny and smooth there's nothing to fear watch the doors in the rear there's nothing to fear docking bay is clear there is nothing to fear open up your little ears there's nothing to fear casing the frontier some diamonds in the clear ends of the year decomposed it's not quite ours just yet the island two sticks in the mud it's monuments we've stood ridiculous and good death defied hey when all we ever needed when all we needed was clean satellites around a conspiracy of clouds gathering words down the style paint creatures set on fire I want to thank you for joining me in this week's video and I hope to see you back in my shop really soon
