Thank you Tom, I'll do my best as always 😉

Thank you Sam for watching and support what I do ☺️

Thank you sir for watching

Thank you very much, it can be also quite repetetive but those days are awsome skill building

Greetings 🤗 thank you for kind words 👍.... I'll put it on the list .. thanks for suggestion 😀

Simon where in Rochester, I am out near the village of Hilton.

You are correct 🤗I do seal bowls, this cherry is quite dry in log form so I only seal bigger ones...thank you for watching 🤗

Thank you 😉 the more you do it the better you'll get ☺️

Thank you for watching, indeed every area has its own way that needs to adapt so the bowls doesn't release moisture too quickly..... 🤗

Thank you,glad I helped 🤗

Thank you very much,I'm honored to be able to help and inspired 😉

Thank you Brendan for watching, dive on those logs, cherry likes to crack and split s lot in log form so don't wait to long 😉

thank you for watching and I'm honored you enjoy my videos☺️

Thank you very much 🤗 glad you enjoy

Thank you,many videos has come out since then ☺️

Thank you for support and watching 🤗 practice is a key like with everything.... Thank you ☺️

Thank you, that is great...repetition is what gives speed and accuracy and the more you do it the better you'll get.... Wood is osage orange 😉

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Le bois jaune est presque certainement le mûrier (dud). Il perd rapidement sa couleur jaune à cause des UV, contient du tanin (fait jaunir l'eau de vie clair en bouteilles de verre) et est de dureté de frêne à peu près. Radoslav Pavlovic

​@@radoslavpavlovic590thank you Radoslav, the wood is osage orange but I have done Dud today and its very similar..... But dud is more frendly to tools then osage..... thank you for watching and support 👍

Thank you Harold as always ☺️ I do core, I'm using McNaughton system,but only straight knife since others are badly bend... Previeus owner heat them up too much

Week later I got some mulberry And it was quite close.... But this one in video is osage orange 😉

You are correct 🤗 indeed ,hard, heavy but interesting color 😉

Usually if wood wants to crack it Will , if the wood is tempermental and prone to cracks I'll turn it green all the way thin...but most of the time I'll turn around 10% wall thickness and let it dry for 6-12months. Last few batches I don't seal the bowls,just let them a side to dry. At the moment there is roughly 600 bowls and plates on the shelf and maybe 5 have nasty splits while another 10 May have tiny defects... But I'll do a video on drying wood ☺️

Thank you sir 😀

Thank you Lefty, it is Osage, nice guess.... I donate all those to local garden for fruits and vegetables or pathes.....but I did consider to make pallets for burning as they got really expensive.... Somehow I enjoy working on my own, maybe ome day as the boys get older they like to continue work.....time will tell🤗

Thank you very much, glad you liked it ☺️

Thank you for watching 🤗 Its McNaughton system, its very efficiet but has a big learning curve....I believe something like woodcut or oneway coring systems are much more user frendly..... I use mostly straight knife from McNaughton system,since the rest are severedly bend from the previeus owner..... Hope that helpes 🤗

Glad you liked it 🤗 thank you for watching

I like Texas, never been but seen on tv, love it..... Richard is my mentor,and I own him a lot ,he helped me be turner that I am today so you'll see a lot of similarities 😉 Thank you for nice wishes and wish you all the best, greetings from coldish Zagreb, Croatia 😀

Thank you very much, indeed life is easier when you do what you like.... I found acacia quite stable, but that may very on the subspicee or continent but definitivly interesting color and grain 🤗

Thanks buddy

Thank you Roger very much 🤗

Thank you very much 🤗 I use pva glue and thin it down about 10%..... Works great for me ....

3-4 tpi , more then that and its too fine or too small of a gullet and doesn't clear wet shavings all that well

Thank you Peter for watching and support 🤗 its straight knife from McNaughton system, I did used it in my hand without turret but that is not advicebly.... I think maybe woodcut or oneway coring systems are much more user frendly to start of.....

Thank you sir, I dont recommend to do like that.... I use 90% of time a touret but for this smaller ones sometimes I do by hand,but like I said I don't recommend....since its close to bad catch..... Thank you for and support 🤗

Soon it will be there turn on the lathe 😀

Thank you Kevin ☺️glad you liked it

You are correct,its osage orange

Thank you ☺️, no need to say sorry, we all start from beggining at one point..... Its McNaughton system,I bought that used and all the curved knives were badly bend,so I only use for now a straight knife..... Or sorby slicer.....both work great

Thank you very much 🤗 Glad you enjoy it.... Regent is great machine, some stuff can be improved but funcionally machines works great.... I'll make review in couple of months, but for the price I can't find better lathe.....

Thanks for your reply. Look forward to your review of the lathe as there is not much information online. Cheers.

@@jimswift7228 thank you for you comment and support.... After review if you'll have any questions feel free to ask👍 greetings from coldish Zagreb Croatia

Thanks Randy🤗 I have sorby slicer but using most is the straight knife from McNaughton system..... I should use it with touret but on small bowls I just hold it in my hand, but dont recommend that... On bigger bowls I use touret.... Hope I helped

Thank you very much 🤗

Thank you for watching and support 🤗

Its McNaughton coring system

Thank you very much.... All the best to you as well 😀

Depends on the season.... Sometimes 20-30 and on some months over 80.... But there is always other turned stuff that people like , like boxes and scoops , rollers .... Versatile offer🤗

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning to my mind that's pretty good. How many pieces do you have finished at any time and where do you sell them markets and online I guess.

@@chrissimmoms1550 accually I have really low count of finish ones, as I usually sell via Facebook as they order I finish them.... That saves me having two shelfs of bowls😉 but sometimes I do finish let say 20 bowls and post them as sale.....

Thank you very much, I'm from Croatia and I use what is avaible at that moment, maple,cherry, oak walnut and so on😉 Have a nice day as well

Its cherry, thank you Ivan

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Ничего себе вишенка!!!😗😄

Thank you for support 👍, greetings to Arkansas from Zagreb, Croatia 😀

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning You live in a huge city. I live in a very rural very small countryside.

@@dagwood1327 I'm as well on country side, by the edge of city👍

On this batch I didn't put anything but if I need to I thin down Carpenters white glue about 10% with water

Thank you very much, similarities are present beacuse he is my mentor, he helped a tone , expecially in the beggining since there is no one in Croatia that turnes wood like Richard..... Soo I do quite similar 😉 eucalyptus I have never turned , so should be a lot of fun at your shop😀..... I'm honored that my videos along Richard's are helping you, I take that serieus and Thank you for that..... Greetings to Tasmania, lovelly Australia from coldish Zagreb, Croatia 😀

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Thank you for your reply, now I know why you have the same techniques. Richard is in my top 5 wood turners that I watch regularly. I am new to wood turning, started at 84 as one of the many things I like-we have 5-acres natural wooded property, so lots of Australian hardwoods available to cut down (dead ones) over the years-plus the Eucalyptus as firewood. I also have some Huon Pine, very, very old very dense and much sought after but limited supplies and very expensive. Currently power carving some Huon Pine cross grain shallow bowls with natural edge. Rock hard pale golden timber, only grows in southern Tasmania. Kind Regards..

@@ShevillMathers that sounds awsome, I have looked here in Europe if any of the wood dealers have some of Australian hardwoods but no luck....but if I ever got my hand on something I'll do a video😉 power carving is fun stuff.....☺️

We use those for our chickens and rest I give away to locals that grown there own food.

I've come from woodworking background so I see a lot of thing I can improve and speed up so all thah comes in handy with woodturning 🤗

I give them away for people who grow gardens as such..... Or for farm animal bed.... Everything apart walnut

Correct,indeed long and hot😀

Try search for Record power dealer near you, maybe they have it in another country near Ghana

No problem, thank you for watching 🤗

You are correct sir 🤗

I mostly use pva (white glue) dilueted with 10% water....or if I have some old paint for sealing endgrain on board and endgrain blanks

Osage orange 😉

And you should be 🤗 3 is nice number🤗

Correct Jay 😉

Really close,but its Osage orange, but they are really close🤗

Ohh hopefully in sort of good sense😀

Ljepilo za drvo razvodnjeno s vodom malo .....

Correct 🤗

Could be

Hvala ti 👍
