Just found ur channel while building a pole lathe love ur videos man!

G'day Ben, Another top video. What I particularly like is the way you explain how to make the cuts and maintain control of the tool. By the way in Australia we call a bowl with a hole in the bottom a funnel. (Ozi humor) All the best.

Thanks for making these videos Ben. Ive recently finished making my bowl lathe all out of Ash, and today turned my first bowl using your tools. Very enjoyable. Cheers :)

Ben, you are SO talented. So is Lois with her leather work. Thank you for posting these.

thank you so much for making such a well-explained and fun to watch series. I cant wait to get started

very cool i am thinking about getting into pole lathing and this definitely encouraged me, nicely taught and thank you

Thank you, I really enjoyed your series of videos. Nice to see how to use the tools and the skills that need to be developed. Thanks for sharing.

Thank You for videos! Yesterday I finished my first bowls using your tools and information from this video.

A lot of fun to watch and very informative, I learnt a lot from these videos! Thank you very much - Clint

To me, this is something else. I'm not really any good with wood and haven't really had an interest in it, but I suppose the fact I watched the whole video and enjoyed it, just compliments it further. I've never seen a pole lathe before, so I was a bit bemused when i realised the wood was rotating, alternating back and forth...lol. Fascinating to watch.

bloody brilliant video mate.

Fascinating. I complained yesterday because my cheap lathe keeps tripping, then I see this. Soooo ashamed!!!!!! LOL wonderful Video. Thank you.

Great craftsmanship I've made bowls in a regular wood lathe and its fun and ease but this really blows my mind congratulations you're a real artists I'm subscribing thank you

Congratulations Ben for sharing your skills, for everyone to see - Good luck with the Craft Lab.

Thank you so very much! This series is so instructive and enlightening.

watched all the 5 parts with my breath held up :D thanks for all the effort with making these great videos

Absolutely amazing! Very good craftsmanship sir, well done.

Good didactics and full control of the technic. Grangratulations and thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Amazing series of videos. Someday I’ll get to use a pole lathe! Thank you.

Great video! A pole lathe is on my build list. Thanks for the video.

Absolutely amazing and well taught. Thank you for teaching.

Very interesting, I have never seen that style of lathe. I think it's really a nice piece of equipment. I would love to build one and work it.Very nice job on the bowl great craftsmanship and your axe handling skills are top notch. Great job.Shane Aubuchon. Maine U .S .A

Ben you're a natural born teacher as well as a clever bugger:) Thanks for taking the time- enjoyable and very much appreciated. JayInOz

Great work on that pole lathe. I was thinking about building a drill lathe but i think i might do a pole lathe instead...love it!

marvellous!! it just looks easy when you're doing this..

Great series. Very informative

Awesome series man! keep up the good work!

Very helpful

Beautiful work! You got a pretty nice surface!

Hi Ben,it's really turn out nicely,this is a "how to" video should be made,as these days i am rather cautious on clicking most garbage videos out there,thanks for sharing.

Good job buddy ! Nice work

Thank you. I really enjoyed that.

I enjoyed your video! Thanks

Great Video. Thank You for sharing.

Gosto de serviços em madeira, nunca pensei em tornear sem energia elétrica, mas o rapaz do vídeo, mostrou que é possível, parabéns. (meu inglês é péssimo, traduzido pelo tradutor do Google) Timber services like, never thought of turning without power, but the boy's video, showed that it is possible, congratulations. (My English is very bad, translated by Google translator)

Its a nice bowl and very well explained. There is one thing if you are going to use the off the shelf "Food Safe" product it is not suitable for liquids like porridge or soup, more for fruit bowls. OLive oil can go rancid. thanks

Great series Ben. I've also seen a couple of your spoon carving demos and love your teaching style. Your voice is very well suited to teaching, very soothing almost :-).

those look like some great knives, i only have a simple crock knife ive used it to make plenty of spoons.

Thanks, MASTER, for sharing this.

Simply Amazing!

Great vid, thank you for sharing

thank you

Thanks

Muy talentoso su trabajo, le felicito.

Great videos, thank you so much.

Very inspiring.

Nice hook tools!

Wow! great set of videos Ben, Really enjoyed this hopefully I get to see it in action in person. Would be great if you demo this at the 2014 bushcraft show. (I think you did 2013 but I wasn't there?) Looking forward to watching some more awesome videos! Thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge.

Great vid Great Location Great Bowl but think i'll stick with me CL4

I love it !!!

Impressive.

You can get them from Amazon.com They're called Mora Woodcarving Hook Knives. Amazon offers a full curve and a half curve hook knife. The full curve knife is for doing tighter radius working, like a spoon and the more open half curve is for more open radius work like bowls.

Who makes that carving hatchet you used to remove the knob on the bottom of the bowl? I'm having difficulty finding one in the States, but that is exactly what I'm looking for. Great videos always. Thanks.

I've heard that olive oil can go bad in there, and that walnut oil is a good alternative that is food safe

Cool..!

Porque que você torneando abaixo do centro da peça?

where can I buy those hook tools for a cheap price, I live in Canada.

First time I ever saw a labottoming blade.
