To say I am so grateful for your instruction would be an understatement Kirk. I am a self learning woodturner because I do not have the time to benefit from the experience of turners in the local clubs. As a busy New Zealand Dairy farmer it is unfortunately not an option for me. I feel very privaledged that through watching your videos my skill level has gone up ten-fold. I have watched other videos that all seem to prefer the swept back bowl gouges and other grinds on their tools which I tried to emulate without much success. Using the right tools in the manner you so expertly demonstrate has made my woodturning projects much more successful. I am still on the learning curve, but far more competent and confident than ever before. Thankyou so much.

I just finished a bowl and I can see so many things I have done wrong. I will take my laptop to the shop and watch the video as I go. Thanks, Kirk, and Craft Supplies.

I was a manual machinist for 35 years and am now going into wood crafts. After doing the first side, getting ready to turn the bowl around: Thinking as an experienced machinist, I would be inclined to use a magnetic base and a dial indicator to true up the bowl with a soft dead blow mallet with the bowl in the chuck so there is no extra turning required to match the inside of the bowl to the finished outside. If doing it like a machinist, I would firm the jaws medium tight, tap it in, then tighten all the way making sure the back of the bowl is true, then go about it as you do. One way to get the bowl to run more true to start with would be, as a machinist would do, use the tail stock without a point on it to apply equal pressure on the center of the bowl, this forcing the bowl to seat entirely on the face of the chuck, then use the mag base indicator. A magnetic base and dial indicator can be purchased at any machine shop tooling catalog, one being ENCO. This is just what I would do machining a metal part in a chuck that was first turned and needs to be turned around to machine the other side for precision work. In order to indicate the bowl easily, I would turn a flat rim on the outside to make a reference point so the magnetic base and indicator have a convenient flat spot to turn the bowl by hand and keep an eye on the indicator at the same time. I do not know if this would be helpful, it could be excessive, but I have the equipment at home so when I try doing a bowl for the first time, I will video it and share to see if this can make work easier and faster down the process as you so well show us here. Thank you for your detailed presentation. I think I will get my laptop and follow you step by step when I turn that first bowl. It will be a while before I can turn that first smaller bowl because I need to clean up the small Delta lathe I have and get the shop in order before I do this. Thanks again for your excellent presentation.

Excellent explanation, learned a lot from this really clear and professional video. (I was a bit surprised to see him turning MDF for his jam chuck with no breathing protection, my doctor warned me that MDF dust is very, very toxic...but I guess he had no option while doing a video or he would not be heard).

Nicely done Kirk. You have a nice relaxed but efficient presentation style. You originally said to finish the edge before removing the supportive centre wood??? But you cut the centre deep and ended up with a chattering edge! Just noting. Thanks.

Love the video. Always so much to learn from you. Do you use soft woods for the video? I'm working on a Bloodwood salad bowl set & it doesn't respond as easily.
@CraftSuppliesUSA2 жыл бұрын
No, we used a domestic hardwood - this was turned out of Silver Maple. Bloodwood is harder than maple so it's going to be a little less responsive.

Kirk is mostly using the Henry Tool M42 Stay Sharp tools - but he also uses tools from other brands. There is no "set" for sale, but we do offer discounts if you purchase more than 3 at a time. www.woodturnerscatalog.com/Sales/54/Buy-3-Select-Tools-Save-10-Percent If there is a specific tool you want identified just let us know the timestamp and we can tell you what it is!

I appreciate your cutting and instruction. But please be clear on this... ALL finishes by U.S. Law are food safe after curing. What most turners on KZfaq say... food safe finish... well... they all are. What they mean to say is quick and easy finish... or better yet, easily repairable finish. anyone who gets the bowl and puts some mineral oil back onto it.
