Join me in this captivating woodturning project as I transform a log of Giant Redwood into a beautiful platter, despite discovering a "broken heart" within the wood. The heartwood had a shake running all the way through, presenting a unique challenge. Watch as I navigate this intricate process, turning what seemed like a flaw into a stunning piece of craftsmanship. This video is a testament to the beauty that can emerge from imperfection, showcasing the magic of woodturning.

In this video, you'll see the initial inspection of the Giant Redwood log, strategies for dealing with heartwood shake, detailed steps of the woodturning process, techniques to enhance the natural beauty of the wood, and the final reveal of the exquisite Redwood platter.
