PLEASE KEEP YOUR COMMENTS CIVIL. I hate that I have to say this, but IF YOU MAKE INAPPROPRIATE COMMENTS, you will be banned from my comments. Let's not be sexist asses and instead support our fellow female makers. How does that sound? 🙌 // Thanks to Powermatic for sponsoring this video, learn more about their 3520C lathe here : bit.ly/powermaticcrafted // 📹 Subscribe to Ashley's RU-vid channel : ru-vid.com/show-UCjGsWlFfwBXNk5N2NBoGXGg
Wow man, I'm so taken back that you would even have to put out this warning. So sad Bud. It would of NEVER crossed my mind that anything of this sort would take place on this channel. But, on a positive note you're one of the coolest makers I watch, and you straight up do some of the COOLEST stuff!!! Great job on the bowl Bud!!! Hope all is well & Dirty Jersey out!!!
Money Making Mike G. Thanks a lot man! Unfortunately the anonymity of online comments let people say things they would never say in person. When it comes to females in the community, it really brings out the worst in people. Definitely a bummer!
Perfect example of how this whole “Maker Movement” works! He has ten times the subscribers as her and she’s badass!! She’s someone you can actually learn something from
Ashley is my favorite turner. She does such amazing work. Wish she put out more videos. Hope to take one of her classes next year if I can get in. Two turners in my club went to her class and loved it and one was a successful professional turner the other a hobbyist like me
I see links to all the products used, except for the tool rest installed under the grinder at 0:47. I have the oneway grinding jig, but this one seems much more stable.
I’ve been searching the net for several months looking for a tool rest like you used in this video to no avail. Would you be kind enough to share where this is available? I did search her website to see if it was a custom made unit for sale. I really like how you were using the 40/40 grind so l’d like to grind one of my gouges, my Tormek doesn’t allow for this grind. Thank you in advance. Your video was a fun and teaching time for me.
Not sure how I stumbled on your channel but you have a new sub. Ashley is a master. Her channel has some amazing work. Glad to see her on another channel
Wow, what a super opportunity. I’d love the opportunity to even take a class from Ashley but just can’t afford it right now. You mentioned her course over on the Wood Whisperer Guild site. When I’m ready for bowls I’ll definitely buy that project. First I’m looking forward to her Guild video series on spindle turning that’s scheduled for February. As for using traditional tools, that’s all I’ve ever used. As you mentioned sharpening them is very important but it’s not as difficult as it looks. There are many different jigs on the market today that can help with the process like the one you installed on your grinder and CBN wheels are great for sharpening tools.
Beautiful bowl - Keep on turning Johnny! Learned Some great techniques and new tools to use. This brought back so many memories from my week of wood turning class at John C. Campbell. Actually makes me want to do some more turning (maybe😉)
So cool to have such a great teacher! My grandpa tried to teach me how to use a lathe and eventually just got fed up with me. Didn't look like that was the case with you and Ashley. Unless that happened off camera...
Lovely and talented, I like her odds for success. I hope you use these new skills to do some more turning projects. There's something satisfying about watching them.
Great vid. I saw on one of your video’s Ashley, you were turning and you went to your bench grinder to take off a bit of material. I have a Tormek T8, and a bench grinder with that white wheel. I guess my question is, when would you have to take off quite a bit of material vs just honing? I want to start out spindle turning first. The big bowl? Nope! Not yet. Lol. Ty, love your vids...Oh, love that shield.
I thought it was interesting he stated that turning between centers isn't the most secure way to turn. I am new to turning 2 days, but my instructor recomended I turn between centers. I will stick with my instructor vs youtube, but is there a more secure system for turning.
Thoroughly enjoyed video. I was wondering have you had a electrical issues with your 3520c? I've been considering this lathe but the VFD and the electrical problems I have read about online give me some concerns. Any comments would be very much appreciated, thank you
CBN wheels for sharpening turning tools are awesome. Glad to see you got set up with one. Nice bowl for your first (traditional tool) try! What kind of wood is it, and what finish did you end up putting on it?
Only for your own enjoyment for quite an extra cost. you have to have a chuck to turn?? The wood nor the end user knows what type of tools you use. This sounded like a commercial for Ashley's site.. I use both but for different reasons .
@@craftedworkshop oh my gosh, Can't believe you comment back ... Hi! I'm so fan!! I thought you don't know him Frank but I know that you really know him for years.. haha
Hi! I see something that looks like holdfast on the legs on your Sjøbergs Elite Workbench? I have the same workbench but the dogholes are bigger than the standard 3/4" inch that alle holdfasts I can find is. Where did you get those? Thanks!
There are few turners I admire more than Ashley. However, in this video you could have used a curved tool rest to minimise the distance between the the "bottom bowl gouge" and the inner base. This would have reduced the danger of the bowl gouge being pulled out of your hand.
From what I remember, she's not a fan of curved tool rests, so we skipped it. Really not needed with that bottom bowl gouge, it had no problem with the overhang.
@@craftedworkshop I respect your opinion and I hope you'll respect mine when a bowl gouge is snatched out of your hands. I just hope you don't get injured. I've been turning for about ten years and am a member of a wood turning club where we have had some of the most eminent turners in the world demonstrate for us. There are several golden rules, one being that the distance between the point of a tool and the work should be kept at a minimum. In other words "mind the gap".
@@craftedworkshop I've just watched the second video with Ashley and you. At 12.26 you have the tool rest angled into towards the inner base of the bowl. I presume this was to minimise the gap and reduce the risk of a snatch. You don't have to be so defensive when constructive comments are made.
How can a turner avoid depositing 70% of that large expensive piece of wood on the floor of the shop in the form of shavings. Is there no way to pre plan a turn so that you can maximize use, similar to a carpenter does in the use of a sheet of plywood, they do not just throw a sheet of plywood on the table saw and say "lets see what is hiding in here".
