Thank you very much

Thank you for watching Dirk, I have to try that, but I'm on the market for new grinder, this one has great top part but the base is thin plastic and its rubbish, and loud,.... But it does the job once spooled up .... So for now I guess it needs to serve🤗 thank you for support 👍

​@@tomislavtomasicwoodturninga lot of us have grinders like that so thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience 👌👍

Thank you very much, glad I could help☺️

Thank you, unfourtually that is part that cannot be skiped...

Thank you for watching and support 🤗

Drago mi je da je pomoglo.... Hvala 😀

Thank you very much 😀

Thank you Randy , I'm glad you can get something out of it 🤗 I have been like yourself mismatch of every freehand method until stumble by accident this way of holding a gouge in hand..... A lot of steel was wasted but it was worth it🤗 what grind do you use?

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning For my bowl gouges I use an "Irish grind" that's somewhat modified. For the spindle gouges a basic fingernail grind. I use the Oneway jig but with a home made pivot and with a platform that I had for the grinder before I started turning. As I said, it's some of this and some of that. I've never tried the asymetric grind that you and Richard use. Not sure if it would work better than what I use or if trying it would just use up even more steel than I've used learning what I use now. I'm a hobby turner so I'll likely stick with what I know.

@@randycosgrove3608 love the setup you got.... This turning market and hobby van get quite expensive.... Just stick to whatever works for you the best.... thank you once again for watching 🤗

No, light pressure and I don't burn an edge, if I have to reshape a edge then I would cool it every few seconds

I agree With you.... For me jigs just wasn't an option..... There is platform sharpening that could be a bit easier to master in begining..... Grab an old gouge and practice.... I still messed up but I leave it like that beacuse next time I'll shrarpen it will be fixed and you learn how to get away with different mistakes..... And how it affects a cut.... Thank you for watching 🤗

​@@tomislavtomasicwoodturningI much prefer free hand sharpening, I guess because I have sharpened drill bits free hand my whole life.

Same here, but without cbn....😂 I'm on the look for new grinder anyway

It hardly happens at this point but I make it worse before it gets better.... Few of my newer videos on sharpening will help out I hope

Thank you Matt, practice practice and more practice.... That is all.... Dont give up😉

Left wing is great for shaping wood where the short right wing is great for endgrain and hollowing....

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning ❤️

Thank you very much for watching and support what I do 🤗 Uff difficult to say, every gouge is different steel but on average around 8 months.... But I'm using them to the max,to the very bottom of the flute since I'm not using jig to sharpen... Also these day since I have a few gouges more I rotate them so they last up to a year....

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning thanks for the reply, very good to know as I've been turning only for a year or so and have nothing to compare the metal usage to. I practiced quite a bit with free hand grinding, using more metal than normal, but now I'm getting it right. My first tools are wearing quick. 😬 (good excuse to buy more😁) Your channel's great. I found you from the "4 ways" project with nice box making. Lovely stuff! I have lots of your vids to catch up on. Cheers. Keep the videos coming 👍

@@fckmunch keep up with practice as its most important 🤗... Thank you very much for kind words and good luck😀

Thank you Ivan for watching, its around 45 degress, but not Always the same, sometimes its 50-55....I'm not chasing certant angle..... I gotta say I'm not familiar with other part of the question 😀 not sure what paper clips are used for sharpening? Maybe you ment something else?

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning The translator fixed the scraper on a paper clip!!

Hvala ti, 380komada ali jos imam panjeva za nekih 100tinjak🤗

Hello Martin, thank you for watching 😀 it is indeed old two cherry or kirsner chisel.... It is over 30years old..... But does the job very well🤗

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Thank you. I have a Chisel in my Shed that may do the job!

@@25is27 if its a thin one, dont use it, mine is almost 10mm ,if its thin you'll get a lot of chatter and could broke....

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning Ok. That makes sense. I think its too thin. I will keep my eye out at Flea markets and see what I can find. Thanks for the advice
