Not every burl is easy… and this one was a true challenge. I started with a chunky cherry burl, full of massive cracks and deep checking, and set out to transform it into a hollow form with a natural edge. What could have been a disaster turned into one of the most rewarding pieces I’ve ever completed.

The process was labor-intensive, requiring extra care, problem-solving, and patience at every stage. But in the end, the natural edge, rich grain, and wild figure of the cherry burl came together in a stunning hollow form that showcases both the beauty and the difficulty of working with burl wood.

If you enjoy woodturning transformations, natural edge projects, or just seeing how perseverance can bring out the hidden beauty in challenging material, this video delivers.
