Welcome to my woodturning channel! I hope you enjoy my projects and that you find inspiration in my videos. I would love to hear from you in the comments.
Amazing! I've always wondered how spoons were turned and had a completely different image in my head of how it might be done but your video just gave me a whole new level of clarity on this subject. So thank you! OK now, I do however know how a tea-pot is turned but if you could post a video on that - I'd love to see your take on this?
For your bowl gouge issue described around 3:00, check out "Turn a Wood Bowl" here on RU-vid. His videos have a lot of helpful details and one thing he mentions a lot is "riding the bevel" which he uses with bowl gouges on the interior and exterior of bowls. I don't think it'll help with the bottom of the bowl though.
If I turn end grain like that I usually use a bowl scraper or a round nose scraper for the final inside of the bowl. You could try back hollowing into end grain that Richard Raffan shows but it is quite difficult and he finishes the bowl portion with scrapers anyway. Check his youtube channel, he's got over 50 years experience turning professionally.
@@TheSladeRiggs Thank you for your comment 😃 I will see if I can get my hands on a round nose scraper soon 👍 I’ve seen Richard Raffans videos and learned a lot from them. He makes it look so easy 😃
@@Ursunshine-i6r Thank you 🙌 I don’t know much about treesandclay but I’ve never forgotten the goblet video that I saw when I started and wantet to share it when trying a goblet myself 😃
Nicely done very pleasing shape, about hollowing a hundred different turner's will give you a 101 different answers, on goblets i use mostly a half inch spindle gouge works fine for me, Kind regards From Will 👍 😊😊
For hollowing you could also check tools by Hope Woodturning. These use a carbide that's best to use on end grain. I have a Hope HW Midi and Maxi as well. They work quite good and catches are nearly impossible, but like with everything else you also have to practice to get optimal results. I feel like the stem of your glass could have been a bit narrower, but nevertheless it turned out nice 👍🏻 Greetings!
@@0BAMiiN Thank you for your comment! 👍 I’ve seen people use carbide tips. I’ll check out your suggestion. I agree, I could have gone thinner on the stem, but lost my nerve 🤣
@@nordicturning I think it's definitely worth it. I also use scrapers, but not for stuff like that. In the end it's a question of style and what you prefer. So maybe you can give both, scrapers and carbide, a try 🤗 Yeah, it still happens to me as well, I actively have to remind myself to go thinner 😅 Mostly because somehow the wood looks thinner while it's still on the lathe 🤔😂
@@0BAMiiN I had a look at Hope Woodturning, they have lots of cool stuff 👍 Never heard of them before. Thank for that. I have the exact same experiense, where on the lathe it seems like its superthin, but when I cut it from the lathe and get it in my hands I wish i’d go MUCH thinner
Great stuff!! I love your projects, I find them inspiring. I’m quite new to turning and appreciate the skill that I see by others. I’ve discovered that it’s not like learning to ride a bike!!! 😊 Well done.
@@joncooke2450 Thank you! 👍 I used some meassurements I got along the process, but it was not very precise. I got a bit lucky as well. You can actualle remove the piece from the jig to check as you remove material, which is the best way I think
@@robertcornelius3514 Hi 😃 the stock was about 5cm at the widest, about 23cm long. The hole for the stem was 4mm, and should probably be even thinner. But the outside about 6-7mm 👍
