In this video I have a bit of "fun" turning this Chokecherry Bowl. The tree had Black Knot Disease for years which gave the wood some beautiful figure. Feel free to ask me any questions, and Please Subscribe!
Last weeks video, Butternut Vase:

Friction Polish recipe:
For 500ml of finish (Can be scaled to any size, 500ml goes a LONG way; Make only enough for a couple months)
Ingredients:
1 500ml Squeeze Bottle
300ml Denatured Alcohol
56 Grams Dewaxed Shellac Flakes (Blond preferable)
150ml Pure Tung Oil (Can also use Walnut, Mineral, or Boiled Linseed Oil)
Directions: Combine Denatured alcohol and Shellac Flakes into Squeeze Bottle and replace lid or cap. Allow flakes to dissolve completely. This may take several hours. To ensure efficient and quickest results, shake the bottle regularly to prevent the flakes from clumping together excessively. Once flakes are completely dissolved, add Tung Oil. Shake before applying, meaning before every coat. Finish separates very quickly.
Apply a generous first coat with a paper towel, and buff until completely dry. Build up further coats by applying small amounts and buffing each coat until completely dry. Repeat until it looks awesome! Remember to do a really good job sanding first.
