Oh! That drop off was painful to watch. Don't think I would have been so dignified 😂

Is there a way to use the grits when a piece is off the lathe, or does it need to be done at higher speeds on the lathe?

Love this!

Megusta pero tienen que pronunciar las medidas calibradas sonó es imposible okey

Wonderful presentation

Probably one of the best beginners bowl turning video I have seen. Thank you so much. Very inspiring.

Having had some recent problems with my feet I suddenly realised that I needed a foot roller. Then realised I could probably turn one. So I googled it. Guess which video came up first?! How have I never seen this video???

This is very cool. I wonder though if you could have turned the hole for the candle whilst it was ‘inside out’? I ask this because if so, once it’s together the correct way you could have made a small hole under the candle for a magnet to sit in. Then, place another magnet in the base but with the same pole pointing towards the other magnet so that when you put the two pieces together the upper piece has just enough separation and ‘float’ to be able to spin. That would be awesome!

How long is the blank that u turn

Thanks! made a very similar one, but with a tenon on the base to stand on

❤❤❤ ❤❤ ditto everyone's postive comments .Great

Martin what a great bowl,your effort produced a craftsman masterpiece. Hope the lady enjoyed her bowl. Mate I felt for you dropped it but a true perfectionist fixes their errors. Stunning may thanks

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.

😮 Martin, I have watched you working, I am in awe of your skill and confused. You spray black on some projects and then sand right back - why? Secondly you again use black, when using paints, but you do not sand at all - why?

What made you choose this kind of outside - I think an O G is much more attractive and elegant. Or do you think it is too advanced of begginers. Have a great one! Phil

Thank you.

Love your owl! Following your creative works Wishing you the best. David

I am in the USA. Thought I would say that I enjoy watching your channel.Been watching for a while and your narrative is easy to listen to and not over bearing. Jim's wood shop.

Ciao ...bel lavorò...dove posso trovare quel jig?

Hi Martin. Me again :) Miss me? LOL....what are the dimension of your top? (No pun intended. Thank you.

Did it crack…….?????

I get and I am impressed by the texture and colors much like Stewart f But on a green blank? Guessing that you also enjoy what nature will do to your piece Either way Props to you

oh lord the most basic studio photography tips, wonder what will be next on the list in the future "mobile phone penis photography for dating apps"

What's the orange blob on the right of the things journaling photo of ?. Great tips thankyoj.

Great job, you make both watching and listening to you easy to follow and understand. Funny question, can one use car wax when finishing a piece?

Don't know if you are still monitoring your channel, but that was a great video. Thank you for your time. I do have a question, when you get to the point and part the top off, it seems that the "point" would go away...is there enough left to spin effectively?

Can't find ANY details re where to buy these products. Anywhere.

2024...great info,skill. Enjoyed watching Started my first one today. I made the bottom too v shape.

You look so much like Heath Ledger it's crazy

this vid was so helpful, excellent advice! just perfect for photographing my wooden items using the phone too 👍👍 id never have thought about taking 1.1 pics, always used 16.9 and struggled massively

Have you ever used two light bars (or other light source) to help with shadow control?

Thank you this really helped but i have a little problem when i take the pictures even though the background is clean,in the photos there are little dirt places,what can i do them to go away? (The background is clear.)

Hi Martin. On your recommendation when we met at Harrogate I have just received my texturing tool and hope to emulate your fantastic piece of work. As always, thank you for sharing 🌞

Beautiful bowl thanks for sharing 😮

Please, some other shops selling this kind of light box? It seems to be discontinued from Amazon? Thank you!

Very useful information and well presented

It looks great.

Best instructional video yet really loved it, as a new turner learned a lot. The problem you had with the live center disappearing into the vase was nicely solved. However I have a question, could you have turned the vase first and then drilled the hole, many thanks.

2024. Mushrooms are thenewha hot home decor. Wood ones hobby lobby, all sorts, towels, canisters.. Love your approach ❤

What is the brand name of the sander

Wie wird die Spitze, nach dem abstechen, weiter bearbeitet? Danke.

Great an Englishman. No offence to our international brothers, just need local experience for u.k buying.

Thanks good stuff.

Time to break away from the canvas! Hahahaha✌🏼👊🏼

I have been wanting to airbrush on a bowl some art work! You beat me to it. Lol Now I absolutely will! Thanks Mark! Cheers dude!

I am attempting to use my pancake compressor and can't get enough pressure to hold wood. Any reccomendations?

Thank you Martin! Your shared experience on smartphones & soft boxes was very helpful .

Merci de French pour ce partage

This helped me alot, made my first one but it wasn't great, I'll keep practicing lol, thank you
