I've started my day watching the other three 4-WAYS videos and got a lot from each seeing different tools and techniques. I've never thought of turning in reverse as you did inside the bead so I'll have to give that a go. It looks like 4-WAYS first project has achieved all you hoped for when you proposed it and we have four quite different boxes. Now for our next project which already has me thinking...

That is a very nice bowl. You should feel proud of it. Greetings from Canada.

This is the first time that I have seen you turn, and you are indeed a very talented craftsman ! Your tool handling is superb !

Beautiful box, Tomislav. Would make a great little jewelry box. I will have to practise your bottom flat bead technique.

That's a very nice box. I hope you can use the spare lower part in another project, maybe with a different shape/wood lid? A very nice idea, and very good to see the four approaches and philosophies to turning within the same limitations. Thanks for sharing.

Sir, a HUGE “ thank you” from all of us that are watching; what a great idea by some great turners! Work safely!

Hi Tomislav! What an excellent idea on the 4 Ways, 4 Designers! I really like your piece. Using paint was simple and elegant. Your descriptions as you work, and explanations of why you do something are very helpful. I am a first-time viewer of yours and have now subscribed to your channel. Maybe a lidded box with screw threads for the 4 Ways in the future?

Good job. I especially like the knob on the top. It was interesting to see four people do their version of the same bowl. Thanks

great idea with the 4 projects , look forward to the next project

I love it ! I agree that it looks better this way rather than your first idea. I just found the 4 way videos by watching a later one. Now I'm going to watch them all. Thanks for your beautiful workl!

Really great design and fabulous color accent. A virtuoso.

Very nice lid box. I will now check it other 3 videos

That little band of color really made it pop. A very elegant touch to complement an already sophisticated design.

Hellou Tomislav. I like idea of 4 - ways production, it's like a competition, but we all know, that that's not it. It is just to share knowledge and experience accross. And in the video you answered to some of my questions :) Keep gooing great job (all 4 of you). Congratulation.

Very beautiful Tomislav.

You enjoyed it , I enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing

I really like your technique for adding colour, I hope to give it a try. Beautiful box , well done, love the bead detail.

God Tomislav, that's freakin' gorgeous!

Tomislav: You get the first prize for this one! Beautiful!

That thing TURNED out beautiful !!! I'm going to subscribe to all 4 and follow you. thanks for the KEWL lid design. You rocked it

I like it. Nice looking box. It was kind of nice seeing you mess up too.

Very nice. Great watching as you work through and be willing to make changes. Thank you.

These videos are great. Thank you for taking the time to make them.

If it wasn't for this 4 - way challenge I would have never heard of you. Nice work, you have a new subscriber.

I just now finished your video. Very cool! I will try to replicate your design and the awesome color accent. Two videos down, two to go. Thanks again.

This idea is fabulous. I am really enjoying this.

By- the- way, I REALLY appreciate how you demonstrate if the wood is smooth or rough by LISTENING to the sound that a tool makes when applied to the surface. Very cool!

I like that reverse turning bit. Got to remember that one! Nice job and nice recovery from an oops. I'm very familiar with oops.

Vraiment très jolie bravo 👍👍

Very nice. Thanks for sharing

Very elegant design 👌 😍

Very good idea to make the same project i like that

Absolutely beautiful!👍

This is a great series and I really enjoyed the video and your candor. Well done!

Beautiful bowl! It's very interesting watching and listening to you 4 Masters working on the same project. Interesting to watch how each of you use your tools and the different tools used. The FOUR WAYS idea is a great way for other turners to learn and enjoy! Thank you! Take care, Dave

This is the first video of yours I have watched, and I am very impressed with your turning skills and explanations. I have subscribed and look forward to seeing many more of your videos.

Томислав! Очень интересный формат. Все мастера, у всех прекрасные изделия. Я чпчу предложить задание. Представьте: Вы только что купили станок. Патрона у вас нет, есть три резца- мейсель, рейер со стандартной заточкой и отрезной. Есть полено полусухого дерева диаметр 10-12 см, длина - 20 см. Вы хотите сделать коробочку с крышкой. Это покажет как можно решать данную проблему новичку. Мне бы было очень интересно! Tomislav! A very interesting format. All masters, all have beautiful products. I'm offering a task. Imagine: You just bought a machine. You don't have a lathe chuck, there are three cutters- a meissel, a bowl gauge with a standard sharpening and a cut-off. There is a log of a semi-dry tree with a diameter of 10-12 cm, a length of 20 cm. You want to make a box with a lid. This will show how you can solve this problem for a beginner. I would be very interested!

Hello Tomislav, I love the idea of a 4-ways projects: I am a beginner in Turin, Italy. It's very important for me to learn as much as I can from master turners. I was already subscribed to Richard Raffan and Mike Peace's channels, but not to Sam Angelo's one. I also love the blue inlay, which I think makes this bowl modern and special. Thanks for the time you put in this.

Thank you for this idea of 4 ways, I have watched yourself and Richard Raffan, I will watch the other two tomorrow. For you next challenge I would suggest a baby’s rattle with two captive rings.

Another different way to do it. Loved your little tool tips for putting button domes under box and chuck rims that don’t look like chucking rims. I haven’t seen you on web before but will now look out for your videos. Great instructional video and designing your way out of errors. Thanks

Very good design.

I enjoyed watching the evolution of your cross-grain box. By watching the four of you I learned about your KZfaq channel. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Thanks to all of you for your professional demos. I find it very interesting to”hear how you think” and then show us. Thanks again Jon

Gorgeous work, Tomo!

The best part of the four way challenge was finding your KZfaq channel. I had not seen you turn before. For the young guy in the group you are very talented. Beautiful work. Look forward to seeing what you create down the road.

First-time viewer. I have learned more tips watching this video than I have learned from watching many other videos. I enjoy listening to you verbalize your thought process throughout the turning. This includes how you think through mistakes. Shows that even the proffesionals make mistakes and how you can recover from them. Also, I never thought of turning with my lathe running in reverse. I only did this during the sanding process. I have subscribed and will tune in often.

Thanks for the awesome 4 ways idea, great to compare approaches and techniques, loads for us newer turners to appreciate. Great video too, I like the idea of a colour band between bowl and lid. Really looking forward to following this series and trying things out myself. Thank you.

Sam, Mike, Richard, and Tom! What GREAT company you are in! You've really made it to the big time! Congratulations sir!

This 4 ways project is a great idea. See my comment on Sam's 'page'. It's similar to our club competitions where they tell you what form is required and min/max dimensions. As with 4 ways it leaves the exact form, design, texture and colour to the individual turner. Great learning from watching you guys have a go at the challenges you set yourselves. My only question is this: When does a cross grain box become a bowl with a lid? Great work from you all. Thanks for sharing.

This is awesome, thank you!

Its my first time watching you turn, you are a true artisan with the tools. Turning in reverse, I have done that once using a bevel scraper for my chuck jaws with good success and will now have to try it with a chise, especially since I'm left handed. I like your use of color to add interest to the box, which would have been beautiful without the color. Lastly, as mentioned by another commentor, listening to the tool on the wood to detect roughest is a good idea.

I think it came out great! I'm never a fan of painting turnings. But I will say. That very subtle blue highlight really set it off. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful! Its form, balance, and proportions are very pleasing, and the thin band of color is just the right touch. I’m very impressed!

Very nice I really like seeing how four different turner’s tackle the same project 👍👍

I have enjoyed watching all of the 4 ways videos. i am a newer turner and appreciate watching many of your videos in helping me to understand how to get better at my turning. Thank You!!

I think everyone has done a very fine job, I just finished watching all four and I mean to tell you all thankyou very much for all the great lessons ; From Va.Beach ,Virginia you all stay safe and keep on turning Good Night

Really enjoyed watching. As a very newbie, rocking horse pooh maker🤣, I was fascinated when you highlighted the different sound smooth versus rough make. I shall try and listen out for this.

Your box is so gorgeous...I love the shape and the painted detail!

Looks great. Great project. It’s much appreciated, the time and effort that y’all put in to doing these projects and helping people like myself expand our knowledge of turning. Thank you Sirs.

Been waiting for this to start. Very good idea, i love colabs.

Beautiful design and project. Fantastic idea of the collaboration on projects as it gives us a look at how each person designs and turns the end result. Take care Cheers Harold

my dear friend, this box is absolutely fantastic,... congratulations on the 4 ways project,... on this channel (youtube) sometimes it's hard to see good work, this is not the case,... congratulations to the four, particularly here for you, you are good,... stay well, be healthy,...

Beautiful

Loving the 4 way! Looking forward to next month.

Well done!!

this is a very interesting concept. And I think it is working out quite well. I have now seen everyone except Richard and so far nothing but beauty. Your piece is very good. I especially like the color accent. Very elegant.👍👍Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe. 🙂🙂

Bravo! I watch the four of you regularly, and was excited to hear about the collaboration. I've now finished watching all of the videos, and can't wait for the next episodes. Nice job on the box, and being the impetus for the project. And congrats on the new lathe.

Nice piece and great idea having the four of you doing similar projects. Really enjoyable!

Wonderful video! I so appreciated your turning skills. I do find your thoughts and vision on the design to be so inspirational. Thanks you.

Very nice design and result and I really appreciate you showing how you recovered from mistakes; that's very helpful. This is a very interesting series that the four of you are planning. It is very interesting to see the different design approaches you have all taken and it is also very interesting to see each one of your presentation styles. Thanks

Beautiful work! I love this 4 way idea. You all are a great inspiration.

I've learned so much from watching you guys, and this was an awesome experience to see how you all approached the same project. Well done!

Beautiful work.

Hi Tom, A great video for a newcomer to watch. Love the commentary and seeing how each of you approach the project with different ideas, tools and techniques. Ive only been turning for about a year and ave been steadily increasing my tool collection. What was the scraper you were using 17 minutes into your video with the bulbous end? What is the advantage of it over a traditional scraper. You seem to be pivoting it in an arc using your thumb.

Great video and the walnut box looks excellent. I especially like the box curvature; it reminds me of chairmaker Curtis Buchanan's spindle legs with the very bold asymmetric curve. I'd really like to see a video on making your inertial sander, since I'm working on a plan for one myself.

great

Love the format for sure. Great to see different interpretations of the same basic design. 👍 Was this the last piece turned on your old lathe? If so, it left you with a very pretty box.

Video on the inertia sander, please 🙏

Hi teacher, can you explain about the wax you use, what are the ingredients of your wax?
