Dumpster Dive Gets Me a Beechy Treasure | Spalted Beech Woodturning

What started as a chunk of trash turned into a one-of-a-kind treasure! In this video, I rescue a large piece of spalted beech wood from a burn pile—yes, a literal dumpster dive—and transform it into a stunning hand-turned table top fruit bowl.

You'll see the full woodturning process from rough blank to finished bowl, with all the spalting, grain patterns, and challenges along the way. If you’re into reclaimed wood, woodworking, or turning trash into treasure, this is a satisfying build you won’t want to miss!
