A small disaster in a piece of Cherry could have turned this into firewood.
I came up with a method to try and save it Watch till the end to see if I am able to save it.

In today's lesson, we learn to turn with our ears. Nice piece and a good redesign born of necessity, but I think learning to listen to the wood is a key point. Nicely done, as always.

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thanks Josh. Once things get rounded and get a consistent cut the sound becomes steady. A change in the sound hitting a crack or a knot can stand out. I got lucky with this one but I think it was a combination of a new vibration as well. Thanks for watching, Gary

I like your fix! Thank you for showing it! The more I turn, the more near disasters happen, accumulated just by volume turned. So having the fixes in the toolkit is really important. Thanks again!

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you very much Jean Long. I think in was a combination of hearing it and feeling a new vibration that had me stop and check. Also it is a good idea to check a recess or a tenon while you are turning. Especially on wood that is not dry because of movement. But this was dry and did not have much strength. Reminds me of how cedar splits so easy. Thanks for watching, Gary

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

I could see the crack only going down an inch at the most so that was not a concern. And the fact I was hollowing the inside I was not in the line of fire. I did not expect the recess to crack but that is cherry for you. Not very strong grain and the wood was very dry. I should have done my first thought and that was hot glue a tenon on. And the reason for that and the recess was to keep the bowl as tall as it was. But I think it looks fine a little shorter. One day I took 3 pieces off and tossed them because of cracks. Just not worth it. Thanks for watching, Gary

@STMwoodturning 10 ай бұрын

Glad you were able to save this one Gary. Your experience with this bowl is why I almost always use a tenon. They are more work to finish the bottom than a recess but they work better IMO holding the wood onto the lathe. Cherry is such beautiful wood and you showed that with this piece!

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you Stuart. I would say I use a tenon the majority of the time. I also use hot glued on tenons and almost did that for this piece. But a recess will work fine on most woods. Cherry does not offer a lot of strength though. Take care, Gary

@timgarner 10 ай бұрын

Nice Gary! I had the same experience. I broke the mortise. I glued the broken piece back on. Then I used your idea to hot glue a tenon on the bottom so I could chuck it up again without using the mortise. Thanks for sharing your ideas! They have come in very handy!!!

@jayscott306 10 ай бұрын

I'm glad you were able to save it, Gary. Cherry is one wood where I can't trust recesses. I realize your piece was older, as well. The nub design was great & I might need to borrow it. I just got a piece of Mountain Ash ready and mounted for a live edge bowl, when I get in the shop next week. That was a good demonstration of precise turning on an imperfect surface.

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you Jay I was happy I was able to save it as it is meant for a gift for my friend who had the tree growing in his yard. My plan all along was to fill the recess like I showed. I just finished another piece of Mimosa and I used a recess on it and filled it with a piece of Cherry. This Cherry recess cracking has not turned me off from recesses. I only use them when I start with a small piece just to keep it from getting smaller. A hot glued on tenon is another option I had thought of and maybe should have done that. Thanks for watching, Gary

Wow Gary, if you have to suffer a disaster, may it be only a small one, and recoverable! It is interesting to see how you recovered the piece, thank you for sharing for us all to learn your methods - I love the simplicity of sticking a disc into the recess (and admit that I would not have thought of it!) Not only do you teach us woodturning and practical skills, also creative thinking/ problem solving skills. I learn so much from your videos; thank you, Sir!

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you David and I wish I would have shown how easy that was to do. But till I do show it all I did was used double stick tape on a wood tenon in the chuck and place a piece of cherry against it. I then turned that to the right diameter and thickness to fit the recess. Very easy to do. Thanks for watching, Gary

Just finished a set of 4 segmented cherry salad bowls for a family member Gary. Was using Coles Jaws to hold the bowl to finish the bottom. On bowl #3, it popped out of the Coles Jaw, bounced up and hit me in the face knocking my face shield off. Luckily no real damage to the bowl but a few small nicks that sanded out easily and no injuries to me other than some embarrassment. I did change the grippers on the jaws and finished without incident. Was an eye opener indeed and it happened so quickly too.

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thanks Robert, I am not real fond of Cole Jaws but use them when needed. Just always have to cut toward the spindle and not sideway. And I leave the tailstock up as long as I can Glad yours worked out and you could save it. Take care, Gary

"Things don't always turn out the way you want them to." I think I say something similar with EVERY LAST BOWL I MAKE. When I post my bowls to my feed (just for my friends to see) I always detailt he problems I experienced, how I got around them and, of course, point out all the defects. I'm documenting and sharing my learning process. YOU are amazing, always learning, AND amazing. With that said, please keep these words in mind: "The true measure of a system can only be caluclated when critical failures occur." Fine, those are my words, my mantra, but they ring true. You can't tell how good someone is if everything works perfectly. You can only judge their skill when you see how they adjust to adversity. I learned so much from watching you adjust.

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you very much Michael and your words ring true. Case in point I served a 5 year apprenticeship to become a wood patternmaker. At the end of that I became a journeyman patternmaker. I was told during that whole time at the end is when you really start learning the trade. That was so true as the owner of the small shop I worked out turned me loose to continue to learn. It got to the point where he was asking my advice on what I saw in a drawing(very complex drawing) that boosted my confidence and I kept on learning till I retired 11 years ago. I strive to learn something new every time I go out in my shop. While working on an upcoming turning I changed a few things on what I was doing for the better. I will share some of that in the video. Thanks for your comment and you have a great outlook on things, Gary

Thank you Rick and you are right on about the joint. Honestly I even had to look hard to see it. But I knew it was there. Thanks for watching, Gary

Nice save Gary. Too bad you lost a little of the beautiful Cherry wood, but it still looks great. Interesting way to chuck it up to fix the damage. Another tool for me to try...thanks for the teaching moment.

Thank you Gil. I think it looks better shorter and most everyone else seems to think the same. So it all worked out. Thanks for watching, Gary

Good save with this one Gary. Came out looking really nice. Have had many design changes myself since i started, some of them quite severe. So far i have only ever had one that didn't make it and that was because of bad resin mixing. the resin stayed tacky and would bleed out. As always thanks for sharing cheers Bruce

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

Thank you very much Bruce. I have no experience with resin and wood turning but I have more experience with resins than I care to think of. We used at work to make core boxes for the wood patterns we made. It was some pretty nasty stuff so I stay away from it. I had a bad experience with resin because I let an apprentice mix some stuff up for me. Oh and another one about smoked us out with a bad mixture. Thanks for watching, Gary

Good job, Gary - you found that cute, little bowl hiding inside that piece of cherry. Regardless of what you were thinking before spinning the wood, the end result is all that matters and this end result looks fabulous.

Slick fix, Gary! I'm so glad you caught it before it went flying. Even though it wasn't a difficult turning, sometimes those quick and easy projects turn out to be the worst time ever! LOL! Been there! You got a great finish on it and I won't tell a soul that you had to fix it, it's just our little secret. Great job, buddy, keep'em coming! 😊 Phil

That’s why I’ve decided recently to use tenons instead of mortises. I think it’s a safer, stronger hold.

@ThePapa1947 10 ай бұрын

I mostly use tenons but on smaller bowls I like a recess. You can keep the height a little more. On wood like Cherry the tenon can break off about as easy. Not a lot of strength in the grain. At least that is what I have found. Thanks for watching and your input because in most cases a tenon will be stronger. Gary

Great save! I’ve made a couple of small live edge bowls like this and they are kind of nerve wracking because of their size. They do turn out cute though.

Thank you Jim, Small ones are not necessarily the easy ones. Something abut a third bigger would be easier just because of the tool angle. Thanks for watching, Gary
