I’m with Nick M, recovering from surgery so have no money to pay for any advice, and to have the best advice in the world for free is absolutely awesome. It’s priceless knowledge

Great videos! Please keep them coming! I really appreciate how you demonstrate turning in a practical manner. I have learned a lot from your books, dvds, and now KZfaq videos!

Thanks Richard,really helpful as always. I really like the style of your videos,how you explain the tool handling technique and the fact that you don’t edit out when things don’t go quite right. I have learned so much from you and really look forward to put what you are showing into my own turning. I am so glad you got out of the wine business!

Thank you sooo much for these free videos. I’m not in a place right now to take lessons, so I watch your instruction and take notes like it’s a class. I was trying to figure out a way to consistently take of the tenon safely, without buying a set of cole jaws, so this second bowl lesson helped out a ton. Thanks again.

Just last night I was trying to figure out how to remove the foot on a bowl. Thanks for this Richard!

Thank you, gifted teachers are few .. your videos are appreciated.

Thanks again for the useful tips. I so wish you could paint a red dot in the flute of the gouge. This would make it so much easier to notice the angle of the flute while cutting the the bowl.

Great techniques Richard. Thank you for sharing your years of experience.

Thank you, sir! Your timing is perfect, as I just had a need to do exactly this! Time well spent- I learned a lot.

Thanks Richard. Amazing technique .

Thank you so much for your videos, Richard! I have only recently become your subscriber, but I have watched all your videos with pleasure. You are helping me to solve several problems that I have encountered. Your solutions are just wonderful, they will help me solve my problems with sharpening the cutters and fixing the workpiece!! Thank you again very much!

Thanks again Richard, loved those two methods! Amos Peterson

Really useful demonstration-and well timed, thank you for sharing these techniques.

Another really informative demonstration. Thanks a lot.

Very helpful, thanks as always.

learn a lot from you Richard... Tim👍👍

Great lesson as always, Richard. I use jam chucks for boxes but rarely for bowls being spoiled with a vacuum chuck I made. I have been using a cherry bowl daily for cereal for about 10 years.

As always great lesson....😀

I love simple!

Lol...the jam chuck went on a little fast, 7:21. I thought the video was on 5x speed...lol. Good video. I've modified my old bowls with mixed results. I need your light touch. Please leave the finished product on screen a bit longer in your videos. Thanks...Ken

Great information as always. I'm lazy, I would have used Cole Jaws, but it's always good to learn other methods. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know if my method is used by woodturners to remove a tenon instead of using an "adjustable jaws set". I've made a concave cone (and a convexe cone) which can be fitted in a chuck as a driver. I take the finished piece of wood between the cone (with cloth to protect it) and the tailstock with a fine tip. So I can remove almost the whole tenon, the rest is removed easely afterward. It works very well, no vibrations, no risk of ejection of the piece of wood, almost all pieces of wood can be fitted in a cone.

Love your videos, always learn something! What hone(s) do you use on your scrapers?

Richard, in your video of your workshop tour, you briefly show your extraction system. As it appears to function really well and looks simple enough to construct, can you give me more information please? I understand the box section etc behind the lathe, its more the size/power of the extractor itself. Many thanks for your input. 👍

Hi from Quebec Mr Raffan. Thank you so much more all useful tips. It's always interesting to see your video and I always looking forward to the next video. I would like to know what kind of oil tou use with the bees wax. Thanks again.

Thanks for the demo Richard. Is that a cloth backed sandpaper you were using? Take care Cheers Harold

Super. Do you mind sharing the wood species for the second bowl? Thank you.

Nice! I suppose one could put some kind of material in the bowl beforehand to prevent damage and then "punch" it out through the screw hole with a flat-headed sort of punch. Kind regards.

How to cut a bead??

Out of whack…in this case meaning the bowl moved and changed diameter?

Is "squozen" a word?
