Every Second…of watching your…tutorial…was priceless… Thankyou So Much…for Sharing your Experirnce. I don’t even have a Lathe yet…so, I wanted some background knowledge - before I search for a quality lathe (preferably used) one due to prices - these days. Thankyou again,Sir Joseph

@user-kr1zq3ow8d 5 месяцев назад

I've watched other instructors videos and came away wanting. This was not the case with this one. Very clear and concise instructions. Thank you.

Scroll chuck and base plate sir, your explanation is worth watching sir, with lots of love from India

@glennclarke9787 4 месяца назад

Hi Kent, I really enjoyed watching you describing the 3 ways securing the wood too the lathe. I've just started turning ( pensioners hobbiy, I use the tailstock version, as for me it seems secure and safe.I won't just yet take on doing a bowl, after more practice maybe. At the moment I'm getting too know the chisels. Would you recommend I get to know how to turn with the newish chisels (carbine end's.I believe where you can just replace the little cutting ends when worn ,I'm not in any hurry, but I believe one can shape your work piece quicker. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos 🎉Stay safe my friend 😊

@user-ho3du3fp7y 10 месяцев назад

Good teaching. Today was my first day turning. I learned a lot, like just how to mount a chunk of wood. Toward the end of practice, my material was no longer staying on. I used the 4 spur chuck, tried tightsng as I went. Still I struggled so here I stop. After watching your video I think I may need to tighten as I go. It was fresh green wood, Monkey tree I think. Well, at least I got through mounting and bulk or bull chisel and some skew work.

@TurnAWoodBowl 10 месяцев назад

Tightening as you work is critical. Also, the type of drive center is important. I use a 4-spur drive center. It has large "paddle/spurs." Some of the spindle turning centers have smaller, finer teeth and a bowl will simply spin. Hope that helps. Happy Turning! Kent

@adolforios4818 5 месяцев назад

Good afternoon. A pleasure to find your video, I recently acquired a chuck very similar to yours and I had the problem of how to use the spike, although we do not share a language, the use of this accessory is clearly seen in your video, thank you very much for your excellent contribution, new follower

@TurnAWoodBowl 5 месяцев назад

Glad it helped, Adolf. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@williambuckley1185 Год назад

G'day kent. great vid as usual. I use whatever I think is best at the time because my learning is by watching lots of RU-vid vids. however you have lots of good info to learn from so thanks.

@TurnAWoodBowl Год назад

Thank you, William. I'm so glad to help. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@waltervancleave6495 Год назад

Very good info. I like the fact that you are very thoroughly covering all options. Retired tool maker of 47 years. There is no set way of teaching. But good solid advice is a great place to start. Self reliance can be a long term relationship. Having someone to take the time to offer good advice can be the difference between a day or a bad day. Keep up the good work and thanks. From Ohio. WALTER

Thanks for watching Walter! All the best to you and Happy Turning! Kent

@chipsteinberg5046 Год назад

Thanks for your time to put these videos out. To a brand new turner they are invaluable. I have only used the jaw chuck and 4 spur method so far. Great information great teacher.

Hello Kent, i´m absolutly new in tourning wood, yesterday i bought me an old used and cheap wood lathe. And after watching so many Vids of other People, i´m really glad that i found your Channel. First time, that i learned so much so easy! And thank god, you made this Video, i was close to buy me an expensive Screwchuck! But now i will start with Spear Chuck and the Faceplate! Thank you very much, you got a new fan!

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Wonderful! Welcome aboard and enjoy the whole process! Happy Turning!

@rongotts3865 2 года назад

I prefer the face plate for security of larger blanks although I have little experience, but I’m learning thanks to you, Kent.

@TurnAWoodBowl Год назад

Right on Ron. The faceplate is great, especially when first starting out. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Great info. Thanks and Happy Turning!

@jimwheeler6131 3 года назад

i appreciate your open, non-dogmatic approach to turning. you don't try to preach only one way to do things, ie, your way. you are, however, dogmatic relative to safety and that is appreciated. i share my lathe and shop with a few other people, so i like using faceplates so i can take my piece off the lathe if i am not done and let others use the machine. That is not the case with the 4 spur and the woodworm screw.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Ah, very good point you bring up. The ease and accuracy of removing and returning a blank to the lathe. You're right, the spur chuck would be the least forgiving to remove and return a blank. Some truing up would need to be done. And thanks for the non-dogmatic compliments. Ha! Thanks and Happy Turning!

@victoryak86 Год назад

Richard Raffin seems to use the screw chuck most often but I’m not sure if that’s just what I’ve seen or if it’s his preference. He actually also shows how to place it on there when it’s spinning and talks about how to slow the speed and to handle it carefully. Of course he’s been doing it for decades lol. I’d be nervous to do it starting out.

@TurnAWoodBowl Год назад

Yes, remember Richard uses techniques for high volume production. There’s nothing wrong with that but that is where his techniques originate. Happy Turning!

@cjswoodworksco 2 года назад

Great training thank you

@TurnAWoodBowl 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed it. Happy Turning!

@billrobinson8939 Год назад

I trust the faceplate most. Mine is 3" with only 4 screws. Going to add additional sizes looking for 8 screw models. I also use the spur chuc, on small stuff, but my tail stock creeps. I think I can fix that by tightening the nut under the rails. Kent, I just pure love your videos for the excellent way you explain everything so even a novice like me can easily grasp the information and turn it into action. You are hands down the best instructor. I've probably watched 50% of your videos, some more than once. Can't say enough about how much you have taught me. Sharpening is still my biggest foe. Thank you.

@grumpowski64 2 года назад

Thank you for such clear and great explanation. I’m getting a Nova Comet II and looking forward to starting my new journey and I really appreciate the way you explain everything

@howardwittwer7490 3 года назад

Howard Wittwer, Lyndoch , down under, Another great lesson that re-inforces what I have been doing. Your approach to instruction is first rate. I have noted your comment about moving the tail stock centre when using the spur to make the live edges even.

@user-ix2cu1pi8e 4 месяца назад

Thank you for a very well made and helpfull video ; i am a seasoned woodworker, but relatively new bowl crafter. I use the faceplate securing method because a faceplate was included with the old lathe a am using. I like the spur atachment for spindle turning but think it can only be used to turn the side and bottom part of a bowl, then switch ro face plate atachment to carve out the interior. I also believe the spur securing method to be less safe to use regarding a flying bowl blank because of antention required to maintain the tail tight enough and the high torque exerted on a small diameter spur compared to a faceplate.

@janesmith7795 3 года назад

Thank you for your clear, straight talking videos. I am new to woodturning and find your videos are the best to help me understand each process along the way.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thank you, Jane. I'm so glad to help. Happy Turning!

@davidgates5380 3 года назад

As always, thanks for the tuition and refresher that we all so need. I use all three methods, the choice is usually made for me by the piece - size, weight, balance and how round it is. I also slightly counter sink the four spur to provide a "protective" shroud to reduce fly-off possibility should I do something to dislodge the piece. Your methodology and coaching techniques result in keeping me, and I am sure all of us who watch your videos, focused. You polish up what I pick up by watching so many of the other amazing folk who share their wood-turning with us. Take care, keep well and keep the coaching videos coming.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thank you so very much. I appreciate you! Happy Turning!

@davidgates5380 3 года назад

Here is a thought, Kent. Something a lot of us struggle with is getting the profile of the grind on our gouges correct. You have covered the different types of grind extremely well, but we often get the tip to edge profile wrong. I use a Tormek system and in theory it is fail safe. At least I initially thought so, until I kept finding I could not keep on the bevel with the tip of my gouge. I then realised the cutting edge of my sweptback gouge was becoming curved down to the tip resulting in my losing the bevel and the tool becoming dull very quickly. Maybe this is something you could guide us on, the errors turners often make with the grind, in one of your tutorials.

@michaelkirsch9023 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing your knowledge Kent. I’ve been turning for about 6 months and have learned so much from your clear and concise videos. I signed up for your sharpening course and have found the information invaluable. The sharpening course has taken all of the mystery out of how to properly sharpen all of my turning tools. I purchase the Wolverine sharpening system, and am confident in how to use it properly. My very sharp tools are making turning easier and more enjoyable! Thx again, and keep up the great work.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! That's the whole goal of the Tool Sharpening eCourse, to provide you with the information needed to be confident making sharp tools. I'm so happy for you because this one step is the difference between a pleasant or difficult turning experience. All the best to you! Happy Turning!

@OtherThanIntendedPurpose 3 года назад

most of the times that I have had access to a lathe, I had face plates and 4 spur chucks, My son and I just this week bought a lathe ( the first either of us have actually owned) and it came with both the spur, and the face plate, but I ordered a 4 jaw chuck, and we are really excited about the ability to use tenons to make turning the inside of bowls and pots. thank you for your videos, even though I have used a lathe quite a bit in my life, I still learn from you. I am by no means a master turner, but as an avid enthusiast, I am open to learning as much as I can from people like you, that are much more experienced than I am.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Hello and welcome! Happy Turning!

@oscarzuniga6981 3 года назад

Hello Kent, I’ve been watching some of your videos and put in action what I’ve picked up and I thank you for all you do and give to all woodturning fellows. I use the screw warm as my first option mostly because I use a mortise rather than a tenon, I can remove the tailstock and refine the dovetail, second option is end to end and it depends on the size of the project, anything larger than 8 inches I’ll use screw warm. Cheers!!

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing. That's a good point. You can quickly switch between the worm screw and the chuck! Thanks and Happy Turning!

@paulruud5804 Месяц назад

This is the best turning instruction that I have found on YT. Thanks very much!

@keithkimsten5111 3 года назад

Enjoyed the video and tutorial. Your no nonsense right at it is refreshing as some tutorials spend 1/2 the video about their dog cat or favorite ice cream cone flavor... (Sarcasm~but you know what I mean).. My rule of thumb is the bigger the swing the more secure I want the piece. Getting a 12 pound chunk of wood in the chest off a 900 RPM spin is very dangerous so as my mentor said, "Lock it down & save your crown."

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

I agree. Thank you. Maybe I'll do an all dog and ice cream video. ;) (sarcasm) Ha!

@danepowell3128 3 года назад

Update, I am working on coring 12 walnut pieces about 16 inch in diameter. I put a face plate on one today and remembered what you said about making the grain even on both sides. Well, off came the face Plate and put it between centers. And what do you know??? It came out perfectly balanced. First time for such a heavy piece between centers. I’m hooked!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

@kgharris2058 3 года назад

First, thank you for your incredibly clear videos! I have never had any luck with the worm and generally use the end to end method. I like this because it is easy to turn the bowl around and keep the same balance. I also generally turn small items and this is just quicker and I don't have to worry about running into a screw! (I now use the face plate on the inside of the bowl, turn the tenon on the bottom and then reverse and use the four jaw chuck. The way I was taught was to use the face plate on a glued on tenon and then turn that off at the end. I never, well almost never, do that anymore. ) But, I found this video really instructive and you answered a lot of my concerns!

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Excellent, I'm glad this video was beneficial to you. Thanks and Happy Turning!

@Roesner65 3 года назад

@alanandkarenrouse747 3 года назад

I use all three, but I use the screw chuck and face plate more than the four spur chuck. I usually use that for spindle turning. Just the way I have taught myself. Thanks for the video. I always learn something.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Great, thanks for sharing and Happy Turning!

@davidmorgan7522 3 года назад

Thanks for your very informative videos. They fit the newbie as well as the well experienced. I use all three methods of mounting. Depending on the wood, size of blank, moisture of the blank and balance. Also I use a little candle wax on the screw and it's a little easier to get the blank unscrewed. Take care, WyoGrizz

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thank you. And great tip for the screw chuck. All the best to you. Happy Turning!

@cjake2767 2 года назад

Thanks for the informative and clear lessons. I have used all three methods, and similar to you I use the screw chuck the least. In a red oak live edge bowl that I am turning now I noticed the spur really gets sunk a lot into the wood as I turn the outside of the bowl. So just as you mentioned the tail stock needs constant monitoring, keep up the great work.

@TurnAWoodBowl 2 года назад

Thank you for writing and sharing! Great minds! ;) All the best to you and Happy Turning!

Thanks 👍 Happy Turning!

@leilawiebe6518 3 года назад

I also learned using the Faceplate. The shop probably uses this method for the newbies for safety. Your videos are explaining the why's to me and I appreciate the detailed descriptions. Learning in a community woodshop, I get many suggestions which may be conflicting.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

LOL. I know what you mean. Raising babies, managing horses, and woodturning…everyone has an opinion and there are usually never two the same. ;) Happy Turning!

@radarthewoodturner8912 3 года назад

I always use the spur chuck to start off with it's so easy to realign I try the screw chuck and the faceplate from time to time but I can never get them right so the spur chuck is best for me thank you for your videos I've learned a lot safe and happy turning to you

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Thank you so much! Happy Turning!

@kenkaufman4736 3 года назад

Thanks for another informative video. I started out using the face plate method. That was how I was taught. I have since started using the woodworm screw in an Oneway chuck. It seems to depend on the blank shape and size.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Great thanks for sharing! Thanks and Happy Turning!

@bradvietjeastronomy2872 Год назад

Very nice video, Kent. I start - and later finish - nearly every bowl between centers. The exceptions are very, very few. The ability to tip & tilt the bowl to balance the figure and/or the natural edge outweighs all other considerations for me. I can then turn a tenon for a chuck, or turn a flat area for a faceplate or glue block, and the tail center is no problem-o: I leave a little nub that either fits between the chuck jaws, or size it to center the faceplate. With a bit of practice, and taking care to *never* trust the bark as a mounting spot (I chisel away the bark to dig into solid wood) turning between centers should present no additional risk. Start slow, and don’t increase the speed until it’s well balanced.

@rexb6478 2 года назад

@KunsthandwerkBenner 3 года назад

All of your description makes perfect sense. I use the 4 sperre chuck and the tail stock to 95%. To make the connection safer I predrill the hole, where the center is connected, with a center drill. This gives me a much better connection because the fibers are removed and not just compressed. The center drill is used quite often on metal turning machines.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Great tip! Happy Turning!

@ryanbusch4015 3 года назад

all 3 depending on the log blank im working with and the type of end product. face-plate and chuck is the go too for most projects.

I use a spring center punch or an awl to prick center holes for drive and tail centers . I turned a small handle for the. Spring center punch and epoxied it on , no need to strike with hammer and it has a, hole. In my table side tools holder , I also made a brad awl with a 10 p nail a bit of ash , and ak 3 /4 "× 3/4" Piece of copper tubing vor a ferrel . I left the original cuf point from the nail mill and just give a couple twists to make center holes

@robertriley6213 2 года назад

I am new to bowl turning , I’ve had the pleasure of working with a fellow that’s been turning for 30+ years and he has never showed me the worm or the spur but in my own shop I have tried that on a couple other projects with success , my bowl turning it really new as I’ve only turned two bowls to date and because I was impatient I made my first bowl into a funnel and my second bowl shattered not sure of the reason the walls were 1/2 inch still and I was going slow trying to get a good feel of the gouge but I have plans for a cherry tree and it’s going to be the smaller limbs just so I can get used to handling the gouge safely. Thank you for the videos they have shown me many things that helps a person get prepared but until you put that gouge to the wood it’s just another video. Practice makes perfect

@jameskoehn4331 Год назад

Kent I saw someone use a Spurred faceplate screwless it had a bunch of metal points on it maybe 6 inches screws onto the headstock. And for the life of me, i can't find it so I'm guessing it was homemade. You take your bowl find your center you then drill a pilot hole the center guide of this spur chuck is centered in the pilot hole with a guide pin. as you push the tailstock up and tighten it up it pushed the blank into the metal spurs that holds it in place No way it's going anywhere... Maybe you've seen this and maybe I'm not calling it by its right name and that's why I'm not pulling it up. And I don't recall who was using it on RU-vid... Thank You.. I just got my One way coring system today so going to be having fun with it. They was out of the #3 so waiting for it to come in ... Thanx Again.

Thanks again Kent for an informative video. I saw a British guy using a modification of the faceplate that attached to the 4-sided chuck instead of onto the lathe directly. It seemed secure and efficient especially since he didn't have to change the 4-sided chuck when he turned the blank around to attach it to the mortise or tenon. Hope that explanation made sense. I'm a beginner and have used all three methods.The four spur is fast and flexible, but not so secure in my limited experience. So, I've gravitated to the faceplate and screw-drive methods so far because of the security.

Thank you for writing and sharing! Yes, the faceplate is a great way to go. Happy Turning!

Hi Kent, Thanks for another informative video. I’ve used all 3 methods you described, but turners who use the faceplate method on the bottoms of projects I find unsatisfactory as they leave holes in the bottom of the piece and usually way to thick of a bottom due to avoiding the screws. They could over come this by using a sacrificial glue block to attach the faceplate. I only use faceplates or woodworm screws on the future inside of the bowl and turn a tenon or recess for my 4 jaw chuck on the bottom, the the screw hole(s) are turned away. Stay safe and well to keep the videos coming. Cheers, Tom

@richardlarocque314 Год назад

I am a beginner Woodturner so my obvious choice is the faceplate for security reasons.

Richard, that's a great way to start. Welcome and enjoy the process. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

Thanks for the video. I started off only using faceplates, but recently transitioned to a chuck/worm screw for most bowls. Depends on the piece of wood i have on hand.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Mark, sounds good. Enjoy the learning process. Happy Turning!

2:30 you can also generally just throw it on the lathe between centers. Thats what I usually do

Those square headed screws are called robertsons screws. I never thought I would be teaching a master something. Love your videos , keep them coming. I always use robertsons screws.

Thanks. Good info. Is that the name of the designer of this screw? Happy Turning!

I'm reasonably new to wood turning and need to get a chuck which will help me make bowls, but i have done one just using the face plate.

@TurnAWoodBowl 8 месяцев назад

Mark, yes, you can do a bowl with just a faceplate. As a matter of fact, I'll do a video on that. Stay tuned. Happy Turning!

@stuartscott9646 3 года назад

Good info. I've also used a safety center (steb center).

@brent5431 3 года назад

Thanks for your videos, they are helpful and informative. FYI- Without intending to, you show pretty clearly how the tailstock can slide back as you tighten (even after you smacked it with the gouge). Every time you tightened, it slid back a little.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

Good to know!

@nancyscheneman4967 2 года назад

Thank you, the information from this video was is priceless. You were able to cover everything needed to get started turning a bowl that every new turner needs. As a new turner putting a piece on the lathe has got to be the scariest part, just not knowing if you have done it right. You didn’t push the different ways or your way is the best leaving the it up to the turner. I myself haven’t decided yet what will work for me but getting there, Slowly but surely it will come. Ideas running through my head constantly need to put them on the lathe. Again thank you for sharing it was a wonderful and enjoyable video to watch. I will catch up on some other videos you have done. If I may ask ? If you were turning a bowl,with epoxy what method would be the best? I’m thinking the worm screw but still bring the tail stock up!

@TurnAWoodBowl 2 года назад

Thank you, Nancy. Glad you like this. Epoxy should not be any different than wood. Go with what you prefer and are comfortable using. A spur drive center, faceplate, or worm screw will all work. Happy Turning!

@kimandmikesneed6018 Год назад

New to wood turning…. Bought a small lathe and have been watching your videos. I’m just using the faceplate that came with the lathe and it’s not bad. Yes, it makes the bowl bottom thicker because of the screws and that’s ok for what I do. Thank you for explaining in detail all about woodturning.

@TurnAWoodBowl Год назад

My pleasure. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@jeffreyw9903 7 месяцев назад

Try putting the face plate on what will become the inside of the bowl. Then the wood with the screw holes will be cut out. Check my comment on 11/11/23 about how you can make all the faceplates you want for no money once you buy a spindle tap to cut the threads for the wood faceplates.

@nicolagainford4230 Год назад

I have just been gifted a lathe, something that I have wanted for years. I am a complete novice but I found your video very easy to follow and will be using many more to learn how to use my lathe. Thank you so much. Any advice on what my first project should be? Nicola

A senior member of my turning club showed the club an alignment guide that he made to aide in centering a face plate .on blank . He turned a bit of wood the diameter of the inside of the.plate about 4 inches long with a pin in center of one end . After finding center , prick a hole , insert the dowel with pin protruding and place it in the center hole , hold plate in place and set your screws , remove the dowel and bingo perfect centered blank To increa,se ta,il stock lock levelrakge , turn a handle about 6 inches long or slightly more and tapernit , drill it out to fit the lever and tap,it in place , no need to reef on it

@williamruder8505 3 года назад

Wish I would have watched this video before attempting my first bowl today. I was working a piece of firewood cedar with the four spur. Well it broke apart and threw the blank. I think my mistake was not returning to tighten the tail stock. Yes that was my first attempt and I will be back at it tomorrow. I think I will try the face plate for a bit more security... and watch a few more videos.

@TurnAWoodBowl 3 года назад

You can do it! And yes, the faceplate is a very secure approach. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@NFOsec 6 месяцев назад

I suggest using a caliper for screw to drill-bit measurement unless you know the explicit size of the worm screw... Great video, thanks for sharing, learned a lot from this. ==

@emmacurcio9302 2 года назад

Awesome video! You’ve been so helpful. Although, while I agree that square drive is a vast improvement from Phillips, I am a hardcore Torx girl…. T25 for life! One of my best friends is also a square drive guy, so we have hearty debates on the subject allmost daily….

@TurnAWoodBowl 2 года назад

LOL, both are infinitely better than Phillips head screws and millions times better than slot screws. LOL All the best to you and Happy Turning!
