Kenton I have been a teacher and furniture designer and maker for over 30 years having turned bits and pieces over the years, i wish your no nonsense modest approach to exploring the best way to improve your own practice was available years ago. As every time i watch a video i learn something new i try to take into my own practice, which goes against the old adage 'you cannot teach old dogs new tricks...' Keep it coming as i have more leisure time now i have more time to enjoy trying and seeing if i like your turning techniques. Thanks Jim

I'll address this reply to you newer turners out there. You live in amazing times. The lessons Kent taught you here on this single video, in a half hour took me a decade of learning to learn, even with a Master Craftsman at my shoulder in a production type prototyping shop atmosphere. Why? Because you waited for the job steered need to learn the next process of each tool Kent described here. This is why in my time at the bench it takes up to 17 years to apprentice into a Master Craftsman. In America we use specialty areas to learn a trade, yet in most other countries you would need to learn all areas of the trade"s" including Machine shop applications as you are expected to turn in a completed prototype of multiple materials from a designers rendering to specific dimension. Thanks to Kent on the few videos I've watched I've dusted off the cobwebs in my mind not just to know how to get to the finish line but to know why I'm there. Thanks Kent.

This video is the foundation of all bowl turning and makes bowl turning simple. The power of the swept back bowl gouge takes one to another level. This video is so packed with information that it needs to be viewed many times, just as a person learns when they begin riding a bicycle. I salute you, Kent!

Thanks for answering my question related to gouge sharpening and an excellent video. As usual, thanks also for your excellent videos, which increase my confidence and lower my fear of using bowl gouge. I would like to make a suggestion which I think may (or may not) make your instructions more effective. My suggestion is based on my 40+ years of teaching experience as a distinguished professor at a high ranking university. Good videos and clear instructions, such as yours, are necessary for effectively conveying your point. In addition, what I have seen is that a schematic diagram of some difficult point adds clarity and improves understanding, for example, the angle of approach of a bowl gouge meeting the bowl surface for effortlessly removing the material. Many of my students, including PhDs, ask "Could you please draw a diagram to explain the technical point?" When I do that, I see a smile on their faces. For some points, such as gouge angle of approach or angle of its inclination on the tool rest, etc., you may think of making a schematic diagram on a card and show and explain it to us in your video. I understand this will increase your workload and my apologies if you find my suggestion an intrusion in your lessons. Best

Kent, I think I watched this a year ago, maybe more, and I set my jig to sharpen at 55 and have always liked it. Watching this again, I checked and I need to readjust as my angle has drifted a bit. What really struck me watching this time, is how differently you stand and position your body. For older turners (I'm 74), I think that can be a consideration for our backs. It seems to me that the 55 will cause less stress. Just a thought. Thanks again for all your videos. I've recommended you several times and will continue to do so.

The one clip where you laid all 3 gouges on the rest was the moment that the grind angle "clicked" for me, it was the visual to go with it. From here on in I don't care what angle someone is using it will instantly make sense. The later comment about putting your body in the line of fire is poignant - having been a little too close to a Table Saw kick back ejection I don't need to be hit by a flying blank to know it's gonna hurt. Excellent video and I'll be sure to be watching the entire library to get caught up.

Great video, thank you; I've just started exploring various wing lengths on my bowl gouges trying to find my happy place. I turn a lot of smaller bowls given the limitations of my smaller lathe, and I really think the micro bevel (another great video) is going to help me a lot in the tight curves and the bottom

You have the best instruction videos on the web. But your shop makes me jealous. How do you keep it that clean?---how many vacuums do you use?, what air filtration system? Any chance of a video on this?

Thank you, Robert. LOL It's just my garage. Secret - I don't let my wife store anything there. Shhh ;) I do clean up after each day and try not to let things build up. Happy Turning!

Excellent video Kent, thanks. Just to illustrate your point about using a gouge which is most comfortable, I prefer a 50 degree fingernail grind + a bottom feeder.

Hi Kent, I really enjoyed the video. You go into detail and explain everything very well. Beginners and professionals alike will be able to understand your video and the information received will be outstanding. Just a couple of things I would like to see you do in all of your videos. #1, wear solid close-toed shoes. Just something heavier than Crocs for the video. That way, the new turners would not get the wrong ideas from the very start. #2, remove your watch before each video and explain you are doing so for safety purposes. #3, just tell folks or show everyone you are wearing your face shield while turning and explain why. I believe these three things would go a long way in all of your videos. Maybe even do a complete video on safety. These are just my personal observations. You can take them for what they are worth. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the video and the subject matter as well.

Thanks for making these videos Kent! I've learned a lot and even asked some questions that you've answered for me. I went and bought some gouges at harbor freight to get some practice with. I know, I know, heads are exploding now but hear me out. Why would I want to practice getting my grinding right on $75 gouges when I can burn up cheap harbor freight stuff and still sleep next to the Mrs. for not grinding away good money?! Plus I can practice making cuts with different grinds and see which one I like the best! Thanks again Kent!

There's nothing wrong with that at all. Plus, down the road, you can customize those tools to do different things. Don't beat yourself up, it's all part of the process. Enjoy the journey and Happy Turning!
