Watching a show called Hillbilly Blood, they are turning a large burl bowl using a truck as a lathe. Using a jack as a tool rest.
Now they are finishing the bowl with possum grease.
Cody, what are they using for a bowl gouge?
I sent an email to the line producer (who ordered the bowl) and she forwarded it to the executive producer. He got back to me and said he wasn't aware of the situation and would get "back to me when he finds out more." Yea right!! Meanwhile on the Hillbilly Blood facebook page they removed all posts and comments regarding this and also blocked me from making any more posts!! I've noticed it's spreading over social media more and more. They definitely haven't heard the last from me!
hmm strange.. I just posted this to the Hillbilly Blood FB Page:
Just wondering.. any truth to the rumor going around that the bowl that supposedly was turned on your show was actually PURCHASED from a well known bowl turner named Jeff Jackson in Washington? If so, he needs to be WELL compensated for the use of HIS bowl and the misrepresentation. If not, well he swears it matches the grain of the bowl he sold one of your producers. Here is your chance to make it right if he has been wronged.
It mysteriously does NOT show up.. seems like they might be restricting posts completely or anything that mentions bowls.
