Brilliant how to . See you at Newark

That is a beautiful wood.

2nd time watching...enjoyed it all. Perfect video. Love no music. New to woodturning 7 months. Like simple but skill building.

nice to see an item made in step-by-step instruction.

Lovely little Gonk thank you for sharing this

What a neat little gift idea. Great work Emma.

Still not made any gonks after getting some gonk stuff off you but tomorrow is the day - thought I'd get a refresher tutorial. And might I say your's is the best tutorial on't t'internet 😊 Hope you're all good!

Thank you! You made it look doable. I'm going to cut out the parts, stand my 85 year-old bones up to the lathe and see if I can be a copy cat. Have a great 2023.

Emma you have started a craze 😂👏👏👏👏

Nice job you are an excellent Teacher I will be waiting for more vids

Much simpler method than I’ve seen before. Will definitely give it a go. 👍

Thanks Emma, I did enjoy the video and have ordered four of your kits from your Facebook page. I will look at your other video's and pinch all your ideas. Thank you again Paul

Emma wonderful as always! Thanks for sharing your talents...

Really enjoyed your video. Great explanations on each step. And you do turn perfect bubbles. We often call them knobs over here.

Cute little gonk 😊 thanks Emma, 👍

Beautiful. Nice Gonk too 😉

Emma your videos are so educational, turning my first one today on my live. Had to just re-watch to refresh how to turn one. wish me luck.

First time seeing your channel and really like your teaching style and skill at the lathe... subscribed! The best things come in smaller packages!

Nice work and a great workshop setup .

I'm subbed! I like your "Let's get to it and get it done" approach. Thanks for the video, and "Howdy" from Texas!

Loved your Gonk! Got a new sub.

Wooo I love this so much, super cute gnome! 🇦🇺

Thank you for the VERY informative tutorial! Well done & thank you for showing your placement of your tools on the rest and describing what you are doing. I'm now a subscriber and I look forward to watching more of your videos!

I gotta try one of these fellas. Seen loads on KZfaq - it’s like a craze or invasion?!? 🤪Thanks for sharing! 🌲🦊🌲

Loved the Demo looking forward to you live demo at the ise and nene Valley turners in September

Great job Emma 👍

Gonna have to try one of these ...nice Emma 👍

Thanks for the "how to". Made my first gonk in my brand new lathe. What a funny guy it has become.

This is the first of your videos I've found and I'm a subscriber immediately! I have been trying to view numerous vids on gnomes and I like yours the most! You are a great teacher and prefer your design the most, especially the scoop for the bobble!

We have received some of your kits today - look forward to making them for Christmas gifts - the beards are awesome. Just subscribed and look forward to following you.

Brilliant video. Really enjoyed that and learned a lot. 👍

Ok I’m convinced I need one of these in my shop lol I wonder if anyone has turned a biggun Take care Rob

very nice work thank you i will now try and make one

Thanks for sharing 😜

Great Job Emma👍

Sayy I like your new work very nice nice work cool

Very entertaining and you are so cute!

Great video, with good explanations throughout! Cant recall if I saw you demonstrating at Newark Show this year?

Good video

Hi emma and roy Ive have had a Request to make one of these so cheers for the demo😀

very well explained........... you have a new subscriber ;)

Great work! How about a gonk pet or a Miss gonk for the gonk? Gonks get lonely too... LOL.

Hi Emma, That looks fantastic. Not something I have ever turned but something I will do in the future. Sorry I'm late watching this I have to limit the amount of time I sit down at the moment due to my back. Take care Emma. Cheers, Huw

Hi Emma, great video. Seeing that you have waxed the body have you found any issues with the glue not sticking especially using PVA glue. Plan to make one this week.

Very Nice, I do like that 😊👍

you are very pretty and Talented lady , I love the Gonk , I carve but I think I can turn a Gonk .

Just found you and I think your gonks are adorable. Where did you get your face shield? Love that the breather part is on top.

I'm just getting started and think this would be a great project to begin with, but don't have a chuck. Can they be made without one?

Great informative video Thankyou, just one question Emma why do you use a bowl gouge and not a spindle gouge for this?

Been watching and learning from your video’s for many months whilst building my workshop. It’s now setup and my new lathe has arrived 😀. What cut and polish did you use before the WoodWax22 please Emma?

Bonjour Merci pour le partage de votre savoir. Je cherchais à faire quelque chose pour Noël et grace à vous j'ai trouvé. Merci

Hello Emma some class work I watched your video on making the gonk. I was going to try and make one but need the furry do you send stuff to Ireland, thanks

Hi Emma. I'm relatively new to your channel & loving it. I've been to your web shop & bought & will defo' be back. My new wee workshop is almost complete, about a week away I reckon, then I can get on with things. Would a hot glue gun work for fixing the beard ? Keep the chill out videos coming please, they're brilliant, entertaining & informative

Hey i really like that face shield what brand is that?

My comment about spalted timber was not a criticism of your work and what you do; just the timber.

Like it.

Hello! Very educational video. I am trying to make these myself. Can you please tell me the diameter of the nose and hat bobble? My attempts at making the nose and bobble tend to not look right in relation to the rest of the gonk. TIA for your advice. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you!

newbie here, just getting set up in my shop. what is the brand of the face shield you are wearing?

Buen trabajo. Pena que no tenga subtítulos en castellano.👌👌👌👌👌

Nice!!! Is gonk an other country's name for gnome?

Awesome video. What is that mask your wearing?

One of our friends drew us a lovely family of Gonks picture for Christmas so I’m planning on making her a family for Christmas this year! I’ll be in touch! 😉👍🏼 what do you think about a female one? Using the fur around the sides and back as fur?

Hi...is that the Easy chuck? What do you think of it? I love your gongs. So good to see woman turner

Can you tell me the name of your face mask with the filters the top I love this and your face videos. Keep them coming.

It may be a question everyone else knows but what is C A glue? (Mentioned when you glued the hat to the body.)

Tell us more about that face shield, please. Doesn't that get a little uncomfortable?

Какая хорошенькая девушка прямо загляденье:-)

Now that I have finally watched the "how to" video.. I had better get my kits off of my "Emma shelf" and get them turned hadn't I..?

How much would this cost if you sell? Lot of effort and skill for just 10$

Nice one padauk or purple hart would make a great nose just a idea but I think it would be to much messing about to make a kit with different types of wood for the nose and bobble so something we could add ourselves

Link to your mask

Dear ladyy dear say I like your vido and work nice work sweet

I know I am a bit late, however the fungus in the wood of any spalted timber is Dead. YET wearing a mask in general is a wise precaution while wood turning.

Hi

I have posted this elsewhere and here we go again. I have worked in the timber trade for nearly sixty years and for the life of me I do not understand what people find attractive in rotten(spalted ) timber.
