In this video, I turn a simple but elegant platter from black walnut wood on the Harvey T60S wood lathe using Easy Wood Tools carbide woodturning tools for clean and precise shaping.
To achieve a silky-smooth finish, I used Yorkshire Grit abrasive paste followed by Hampshire Sheen High Gloss Finishing Wax, bringing out the rich tones and beautiful grain of the black walnut while adding a stunning high-gloss shine.
This project is a great example of how minimal design can highlight the natural beauty of wood. Perfect for anyone interested in woodturning, fine finishing techniques, and elegant wooden creations.
Tools & Materials Used:
✅ Harvey T60S Wood Lathe
