Most informative video. I noticed that you used three angles to cut the rings. I would have thought all cutting angles would be the same. The contrasting woods are very nice. Thanks two bunches.
Thank you and thanks for watching. The way a bowl from a board works you end up with thin walls. So by changing the angle it gives you enough stock to get a curved side on it. Thanks again, Gary
Note to everyone... watch the explanation at the end. One of the better demonstrations and explanations of "board bowls" angles there is. Well done sir.👍
Thanks so much Michael for your very kind words. I debated with showing it early on or waiting. Hard to fit in the beginning without breaking up the flow. Very happy you enjoyed it and thanks for watching. Gary

Hello my friend. I also appreciate this idea. I also made a ring removal knife this week. It was a DIY project. And I will try today. You are a good master. Thank you for showing the details. I wish you have a nice weekend. All the best. Ll see.
Well, you just keep impressing us with your math and design skills, Gary! I love your new ring cutter. I'll bet you have people wanting to buy one from you! LOL! I know, I know, you already had a job and you're not interested in having another one! This video is so well done, Professor! You are leaving a legacy for generations to come and I'm proud of you! Phil
Thank you very much Phil and yes I am getting a lot of questions on if the are available for purchase. So many variables on banjo shapes and sizes it might turn into a real nightmare and make me thinking I have a job again. I have not had that bad dream for a few years now LOL This was lots of fun to do and so for seems to be well liked. My video last week was a bit of a flop LOL. Thanks for watching my friend, Gary
Cheers bruv. Nice simple explanation. I personally prefer the curve to the straight side. No straight lines in nature. 👍 Can't wait to have a go myself.
You have inspired me to a new level. I make bowls from saved pieces of past projects and resin and always want to reduce waste. This cutting off a flat stock is so smart . Thank you for sharing such an amazing way to create bowls.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail for this video a game show bell went off in my head...ding ding ding. I knew how well it would work to cut any angle accurately. I had to chuckle when I saw the popsicle used to set the angle. You think like me at times. At least on the simple things. What flavor was the popsicle? LOL. There might be a market for this jig idea. ???? Well done, but be careful, you keep setting the bar higher with each video Gary.
Thank you Gil, yes I think this jig is much better than the other. But the other works good as well. I save those popsicle sticks for mixing 5 minute epoxy or CA and sawdust. They are actually from juice bars we like. Also some Häagen-Dazs ice cream bars as well. Thanks for watching, Gary
and again you do it. Just awesome creativity. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. We mere mortals enjoy a challenge I will let you know when I get close.
Both: the level of the craftsmanship and idea behind of this invention are incredible and quite in your style, Sir! Adapting your idea to the possibilities of those who are without CNC machines is pricelless as well. Following you, I will try to execute it in aluminum (hoping without cutting my own digits with the bandsaw!) Thank you very much, Gary!
Thanks Andre! The band saw will work fine. The part can be held with clamps or vise grips. Have done many parts like this with and without camping. Take care, Gary
Thank you, Gary for such a swift reply. It’s done! Will send you pictures via email. Many, many thanks for such a great idea. Believe it or not, I haven’t turned bowl-from-the-board yet. It will be first and with your jig.
Thank you very much for this video! It has been truly informative, and extremely helpful. I have not done a bowl from a board yet and I am going to try this using your methods. Cheers, AmosP
I always thought when turning bowls you waste a lot of material, you have shone away that saves that material and opens up endless possibility. Nice jig !! simple and very practical. I do tend to think that people over complicate things. Thanks Gary
Thank you very much. For sure they does save a lot of nice wood that you have to purchase. I sure would not buy a huge kiln dried blank to turn a bowl. That is a shame for the real fancy stuff. I do not feel real bad if I turn something that was headed for the fire place though. Which it seems most of pieces of trees end up there. Thanks for watching, Garu
Thank you Radar! I know what you mean about the plate overflowing. This week I had 3 plates going and they were all overflowing. But we got through it and time to relax. Oh wait I have some segments waiting for me in the shop LOL. Thanks for watching my friend, Gary
Hi Gary. Quick update. The tool steel did finally arrive a few months back but I had a series of retaining walls to replace beside the house and spent six months with contractors intermittently (!) working the project. Every contractor and sub was to their ears with work so it was very difficult to keep people on the job as they had way to much to cope with and too few workers to boot. So here I am in December finally watching this video again. Now I'm off to find the other video that showed how you used a tool post and flat attachment to build a multi angle fixture as I do not have the equipment to easily manufacture the one shown in this video. But first off to the dentist. Thanks again for all you share, you have taught me a great deal. Best of the Season to you and yours. Cheers, Gord
Thank you Gord and hope those contractors get it all done for you. I understand limited time to get things done for sure. The first fixture I made will work just fine. I just like making fixtures so did the others. Best of luck and Merry Christmas. Gary
That's very nice! Two complimentary take aways: one, I like that you put the explanation at the back of the video, two I appreciate your explanation of why you cut the rings at different angles!
Thank you Billy, this should be the final version but I do have some accessories planned for this one. Just have to draw it up to see if it will work. Take care, Gary
Great video again, your tuition comes across well thank you, cracking finish as always, certainly learnt alot from yourself and Phil Anderson keep em coming. All best from Lincolnshire UK
Very nice. Very nice. I want one of your jigs to try this on my own because I've done bowls from a board but like you say, the straight sides just make it look like I wasted my time on a not-so-pretty bowl. I hope you will be making the jig available. Your whole channel is so inspiring.
Thank you very much Robert. I have had the request to make them. I did make a video showing how I made one from store bought parts. Thanks for your interest, Gary th-cam.com/video/3Uw2Ju_LAss/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ThePapa1947
You sir are a very smart man. I am almost 67 years old. My Daddy was a Commercial Fisherman and a Boat Builder, so as a little bitty kid I was following around behind him with a hammer and a saw. So I have been a woodworker pretty much all my life but I have never owned or used a lathe. You and Mr. Phil Anderson have taught me more about becoming a woodturner than all the others put together. I do not know when or even if I will ever be able to afford a lathe, and I know if I do, it will have to be an old used one. See, I am a disabled Veteran in a wheelchair and disability don't pay well. Anyway, I just wanted to comment after watching the end of this on how you got the curve as well as your new tool. I am subscribed to you but I have no idea how to see any reply you make, but that's OK, you just keep posting videos and I will keep learning..........JP
Thank you very much Paul for your very kind words. I worked as a wood pattern maker minus 2 years in the Army and another 2 trying to get my head back on straight. I have loved wood working since I was in grade school and not just wood turning. I am sorry to hear about you situation and hope you are able to get a small lathe. i know 2 people that are in a wheel chair and are able to turn. I got through the Army mostly ok but I do carry a few disabilities' myself. Nothing like you though. If you were able to comment you should be notified of my response to your comment. All my best to you my brother, Gary
Howdy Gary, Beautiful Bowl and I really like that new ring cutting fixture ya made to! That’s pretty cool, I would love to have one of those, I’ll buy one from ya if ya decide to start making those to sell! 😎 Thanks for showing the diagram at the end of the video to it was very Helpful, Enjoyed the video!👍
Thank you very much Kimsey! I will be making a video on the jig soon and have discovered a easy way for all to make one. Coming soon! Thanks for watching, Gary
Can you sell me the top of your new tool holder? I have a Nova 1" post with a threaded end I could just screw it to. Actually, you might want to start selling just the tops only, and have the buyer do the same as me.
Thank you Steve, I was almost going to do it at the begining. But i am sure some would not be interested and then stopped watching. This seemed like the best option. Thanks for watching, Gary
A fantastic Video and like many, I hope that if not you, someone comes up with that jig for the banjo. You are a wonderful teacher and I learn a lot on each of your videos I watch. Thanks so much.
Thank you Jay, I will be doing a video showing how one can be made. Also I have found 2 parts that you can purchase and build one. I hate to buy the parts as I already made one but maybe I could resell them. Gary
That is a beautiful bowl. I love the shine on it. The way it’s spread out is amazing! Very nice!! The tool that you made takes all the guesswork out of woodturning. Great job on all you are so talented! Bravo!
Well done. No, Very well done. I have ordered some parts and will build a fixture. Not my first BFB but I think will be the easiest up to now. Simple fixture too. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thank you very much Steve, as a matter of fact I have a special board I will need to make flat that will be perfect for doing this. I have to fit it on the list of all the things I want to do. Thanks for watching, Gary
Well thank you Manjit for letting me know that end part was something that was easy to understand. I see these things in my mind and try my best to use words to describe. I have found out that some images mixed with words seem to do the job. Thanks again, Gary
Hi Gary. The end of this video does help us ‘not so smart turners’ understand how to lay out the concentric circles and make curved bowls with various angles. I appreciate you referring me back to this video! Another question: do you think a 3-D printed version of your aluminum angle jig would hold up to the heat generated by the thin parting tool cutting at an angle through the board? A very talented friend is going to make a version on a 3-D printer. I’m wondering if the material will hold up. Well, thanks again! Steve (Big Galoot Woodworks)
Thank you Steve. I would think that depending on how dense it was made that it should hold up. Testing would be important. I would not worry about the one I made but I know my parting tool and how hot it gets. I like to back out now and then to clear the chips and on mine it is the tip that gets real hot. Back where it is against the jig is not nearly as hot. As with any thing test it out real good before using it. Thanks for watching, Gary
Bloody brilliant once again, Gary. You certainly are a whiz with angles, my friend. 👍👍 Great video once more! Take care of yourself, my friend. …..Gord
Thank you so much Gord. At work angles was an every day thing and I still love working with them. Thanks for watching and commenting. Things seem to be getting better down here in Oregon. I can all wish and pray for the rest of the world. Gary
I've got to try this. Thanks for all the detailed info. I looked for the video of the dovetailed bowl from board but didn't find it. Would love to see how that was done. I try to watch all your videos. You're a great teacher.
My scraper is a negative rake scraper. That means it has an angle grind on both sides. With only one grind then you are doing it the way it is meant to be used. This scraper started out with an angle on one side and I ground the other. Very good finish and no catches. Hope this helps, Gary
I wish I could spend an afternoon with you in your shop...I would learn so much about calculating angles! Thanks for all your explanations...they really help.
Thank you Stuart. I had this guide in mind when I made the first one. But I needed something fast so I made the wooden guide. It does work fine and by request I made a video on it. It will still do the job and you can put multiple slots in it. But I do like the new one much better. Thanks for watching, Gary
Gary, it's a beautiful bowl but I think you really outdid yourself in terms of creating an informative teaching video, especially for those who wanted a visual of how it all works and watched to the end. The jig is ingenious but I think you came up short in one detail that will have many of us scratching our heads. You failed to answer the key question: What brand of popsicle? Thanks again for all you offer us.
Hi Gary. I made my first bowl of a board and learned a lot. Of course I also had tear-out. (My parting tool has a diamond shape, so that's not ideal). Also when gluing I had made a mistake by not correctly putting the rings back on the woodgrain.🤭 Learned a lot from this video too. I'm going to make a second attempt soon.🤗 You made a verry clever jig. I won't go that far, but it's nice to see how you do this. Take care! Frank.
Thank you Frank! My parting tool is a diamond shape as well, Just make sure it is very sharp and listen to the sound the wood makes. When you get within a 1/16 of an inch you can hear the sound change. Very light pressure and you should not get tear out. There might be fuzees on the edge but no tear out. It is nice to line the grain up but it does not look bad if you have them rotated enough to make it look like you did it n purpose. But I do prefer to line it up most of the time. Before you cut your rings put a mark across the board on top and bottom. You can use that to line things up. Take care, Gary
Very informative video. You are the master of ring cutting. I have tried it with some success but not completely. Love the explanation at the end. Mike
Thank you Mike, happy you enjoyed the video. Also nice to hear you enjoyed the section at the end. I was not sure how but decided to put it in. Thanks for watching, Gary
Thanks for your explanation and graphics. I enjoyed the video and now see a way of making a "bowl from a board" with some shape, as straight sided forms just don't cut it for me. Thanks again for your considerable efforts to enlighten the rest of us
Thanks so much. I also am not excited about the straight walls. I was sure this option should work and happy I showed it does. Thanks for watching, Gary
Another 👍👍👍👍👍 video. I'm going to look for the one where you designed/used the wooden jig. I don't have the equipment or expertise to make the aluminum one.
Hi Larry, Here is the one made from wood: th-cam.com/video/GnzYR6y4ZhM/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ThePapa1947 This one is made from a tool rest I bought and made a simple mod to it: th-cam.com/video/3Uw2Ju_LAss/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ThePapa1947
Thanks so much. To be honest I am not sure how you actually pronounce yarran LOL. Couple of other woods from Australia I am not sure of either I just know they are very pretty woods. Thanks for watching, Gary
The explanation alone was worth the price of admission! The bowl itself came out beautifully. Gary, thank you so much for sharing all of these things that I’m sure took up a lot of your time to develop. It’s great when someone with your background is available to us! Cheers,Rick
Thank you very much Rick! I was not exciting such a nice looking bowl but the Yarran is very pretty. I spent a few hours drawing the part up and did cut some on my CNC and skipped one setup to safe time and cut some on the band saw. Happy you liked it. Gary
I am a furniture maker and get the bug to turn about one month out of each year, usually after taking a turning class. I love the idea of turning a bowl from a board, both because it diminishes waste and because it gives rise to design opportunities. I will have to give it a try. Thank you very much for the inspiration.
Most informative video. I noticed that you used three angles to cut the rings. I would have thought all cutting angles would be the same. The contrasting woods are very nice. Thanks two bunches.

I like how well you explain every thing Thanks Tileo
Thank you Tileo and thanks for watching.
Garu
Cheers bruv.
Nice simple explanation.
I personally prefer the curve to the straight side. No straight lines in nature. 👍
Can't wait to have a go myself.
Thank you very much. It is nice being able to put a little curve in a bowl from a board.
Thanks for watching,

Both: the level of the craftsmanship and idea behind of this invention are incredible and quite in your style, Sir! Adapting your idea to the possibilities of those who are without CNC machines is pricelless as well.

The band saw will work fine. The part can be held with clamps or vise grips. Have done many parts like this with and without camping.
Take care,

I am interested in everything you do, thank you for your inspiration.
Thank you very much David and thanks for watching.

I love the ring cutter. Well made & interesting design...
Thank you very much Leslie. Happy you liked it and thanks for watching,
Gary
Brilliantly done you are a genius like the new jig will be making one of those thanks for the angles at the end
Thank you Daemon I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching.
Gary
Thank you very much for this video! It has been truly informative, and extremely helpful. I have not done a bowl from a board yet and I am going to try this using your methods. Cheers, AmosP
Thanks Amos! I appreciate you watching, I hope it is helpful.
Gary
I always thought when turning bowls you waste a lot of material, you have shone away that saves that material and opens up endless possibility. Nice jig !! simple and very practical. I do tend to think that people over complicate things. Thanks Gary
Thank you very much. For sure they does save a lot of nice wood that you have to purchase. I sure would not buy a huge kiln dried blank to turn a bowl. That is a shame for the real fancy stuff.
I do not feel real bad if I turn something that was headed for the fire place though. Which it seems most of pieces of trees end up there.
Thanks for watching,
Garu
Great explanation Gary I'm going to try this one day but my plate is overflowing right now I will one day stay safe friend👍👍👍👍
Thank you Radar! I know what you mean about the plate overflowing. This week I had 3 plates going and they were all overflowing. But we got through it and time to relax. Oh wait I have some segments waiting for me in the shop LOL.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
That was a very good explanation. I'm going to try this one day.
Thank you very much. Let me know how it goes.
Gary
Hi Gary. Quick update. The tool steel did finally arrive a few months back but I had a series of retaining walls to replace beside the house and spent six months with contractors intermittently (!) working the project. Every contractor and sub was to their ears with work so it was very difficult to keep people on the job as they had way to much to cope with and too few workers to boot. So here I am in December finally watching this video again. Now I'm off to find the other video that showed how you used a tool post and flat attachment to build a multi angle fixture as I do not have the equipment to easily manufacture the one shown in this video. But first off to the dentist. Thanks again for all you share, you have taught me a great deal. Best of the Season to you and yours. Cheers, Gord
Thank you Gord and hope those contractors get it all done for you.
I understand limited time to get things done for sure.
The first fixture I made will work just fine. I just like making fixtures so did the others.
Best of luck and Merry Christmas.
Gary
That's very nice! Two complimentary take aways: one, I like that you put the explanation at the back of the video, two I appreciate your explanation of why you cut the rings at different angles!
Thank you very much Lawrence. I like to try and put it at the end because not everyone is interested. Happy you liked it.
Gary
Really cool, Gary... I need to make me one of those risers for my banjo!
Thank you Billy, this should be the final version but I do have some accessories planned for this one. Just have to draw it up to see if it will work.
Take care,
Gary
i like this very much , i like your bowl too
Thanks so much Delbert and thanks for watching.
Gary
You are right, it is beautiful 🌞
Thank you Ray, happy you liked it.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
great idea Gary,I will copy that if you don't mind,hopefully, want to try that out one day soon,great bowl,thank you
Thanks so much Fran and for sure copy anything you want.
Happy turning,
Gary
Beautiful!
Thank you bery much Billy and thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary this is brilliant thanks
Thank you Michael and thanks for watching.

Great video again, your tuition comes across well thank you, cracking finish as always, certainly learnt alot from yourself and Phil Anderson keep em coming. All best from Lincolnshire UK
Thank you very much Gary. For sure Phil is a person everyone should try to learn from.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I thought the design of the tool is so simple it's genius good job you should apply for a paton that might be what makes your million
Thank you Bill! Yes it is very simple and fun to make.
I think there probably is a little interest in it for sure.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Like your explanations and the ring cutter
Thank you Judith and thanks for watching.
Gary
Very good description Gary i wish you had been my teacher i have learnt a lot more abouit angles than i ever did at school.Thank you
Thank you very much. I have always loved geometry and trig. It was very important in what I did for a living and I still love it.
Take care,
Gary
A beautiful bowl
Donovan thanks so much and thanks for watching,
Gary
Very cool bowl, but that jig is great. Thanks for the explanatory detail at the end; neat approach.
Thank you Mark, happy you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching,

love that jig!
Thank you Robert! i will be making a video on the jig soon.

Thank you very much Paul for your very kind words. I worked as a wood pattern maker minus 2 years in the Army and another 2 trying to get my head back on straight.
I have loved wood working since I was in grade school and not just wood turning.
I am sorry to hear about you situation and hope you are able to get a small lathe. i know 2 people that are in a wheel chair and are able to turn.
I got through the Army mostly ok but I do carry a few disabilities' myself. Nothing like you though.
If you were able to comment you should be notified of my response to your comment.
All my best to you my brother,

Howdy Gary, Beautiful Bowl and I really like that new ring cutting fixture ya made to! That’s pretty cool, I would love to have one of those, I’ll buy one from ya if ya decide to start making those to sell! 😎
Thanks for showing the diagram at the end of the video to it was very Helpful, Enjoyed the video!👍
Thank you very much Kimsey! I will be making a video on the jig soon and have discovered a easy way for all to make one.
Coming soon!
Thanks for watching,

This seemed like the best option.
Thanks for watching,

Love your new ‘Angle Tool’ to fit the banjo.
Thank you Doug. I really like using it.
Thanks for watching,

Ingenious and creative use of tools and materials. Very beautiful bowl. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much and thanks for watching!
thank you once again for insperation and the explination on how to do. please keep up the wonderful work
Thank you Neil, happy you enjoyed it and thanks for watching,

Both the tool and the bowl look great. 👍.
Thank you Dave, happy you enjoyed both.
Take care,
Gary
Great idea. I am going to try it
Thank you Stephen and have fun.
Gary
Well done. No, Very well done. I have ordered some parts and will build a fixture. Not my first BFB but I think will be the easiest up to now. Simple fixture too. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thank you very much Glen. It is about the only way I will do a BFB anymore. Even will use this method for dizzy bowls.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very beautiful Gary and awesome tool take care and God bless
Thanks so much Mike and God bless you as well my friend,
Gary
Thank you, Well done. I am going to try to make a that guide. I always done mine free hand. This will be a big improvement.
Thank you Dwight, the guide should be easy enough to make. i used 6061 aluminum.
Thanks for watching and let me know how your guides goes.
Gary
I love your tutorial on the details. Anyone with a supply of flat wood can make bowel’s easily
Thank you very much Steve, as a matter of fact I have a special board I will need to make flat that will be perfect for doing this. I have to fit it on the list of all the things I want to do.
Thanks for watching,

I think Phil nailed it Gary ! Wow !
Thank you very much Jon and thanks for watching.

Hi Gary. The end of this video does help us ‘not so smart turners’ understand how to lay out the concentric circles and make curved bowls with various angles. I appreciate you referring me back to this video! Another question: do you think a 3-D printed version of your aluminum angle jig would hold up to the heat generated by the thin parting tool cutting at an angle through the board? A very talented friend is going to make a version on a 3-D printer. I’m wondering if the material will hold up. Well, thanks again! Steve (Big Galoot Woodworks)
Thank you Steve. I would think that depending on how dense it was made that it should hold up. Testing would be important. I would not worry about the one I made but I know my parting tool and how hot it gets.
I like to back out now and then to clear the chips and on mine it is the tip that gets real hot. Back where it is against the jig is not nearly as hot.
As with any thing test it out real good before using it.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Bloody brilliant once again, Gary. You certainly are a whiz with angles, my friend. 👍👍 Great video once more! Take care of yourself, my friend.

Thank you so much Gord. At work angles was an every day thing and I still love working with them. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Things seem to be getting better down here in Oregon. I can all wish and pray for the rest of the world.
Gary
Cool Projekt. Best Regards from Germany
Many thanks! I appreciate you watching.
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Sure, I love woodturning and soak up cool ideas. Try myself so many things. I especially like your videos.
Greetings Jörg
Gary, great video, your explanation of your layout and measurements at the end are spot on. Thank you.
Thank you Paul. Happy they are helpful.
Take care,

All I can say is Wow, there was more to that than what I initially thought. Very impressive 👏. From Mike in Port Elizabeth.
Thank you very much Mike, happy you stuck with it and watched it all.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
fantastic! Well done sir!
Thank you Joel and thanks for watching.
Gary
Both artist and teacher. Always my fave videos.
Thank you Mike, happy you enjoyed the video.
Take care,
Gary
Thanks Gary for another how to video. You do a good job Thanks for sharing!
Cheers Dave
Thank you very much Dave!
Take care,
Gary
Great job. I also would like to see a video on making the jig if you decide to do one. Thanks again - longtime subscriber.
Thank you James and for sure I will make a video on making the fixture. There has been a lot of interest in it.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
enjoyed the lesson thanks
Thank you Steve. This is how I do it.
Others may have a different way.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
I've got to try this. Thanks for all the detailed info. I looked for the video of the dovetailed bowl from board but didn't find it. Would love to see how that was done. I try to watch all your videos. You're a great teacher.
I did not do a video on that particular dovetail bowl. But you can look up my Barrel of Blocks where I do dovetail pieces.
Very nice information & new ring cutter tool' take care.
Thanks Sagar and thanks for watching.
Gary
Super tutorial ! Thank you ! It is fun to see a brainiac at work !
Thank you very much Dan. I just love this type of math and using it in a way that helps me and others.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Many thanks for your teaching videos. I learn so much.
Thank you Doug, happy you enjoyed the video.
Gary
Watching you use the scraper, I learned that I have been using mine up side down! I have been placing the bevel down, nut up.
My scraper is a negative rake scraper. That means it has an angle grind on both sides. With only one grind then you are doing it the way it is meant to be used. This scraper started out with an angle on one side and I ground the other. Very good finish and no catches.
Hope this helps,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 yes it does, thanks for the clarification
Genius, Gary!! Pure genius!!
Thank you Clayton!
very cool, going to have to try this
Thank you Chris and best of luck.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Yes sir beautiful work and great information thanks again for teaching 👍
Thank you and thanks for watching,
Gary
I wish I could spend an afternoon with you in your shop...I would learn so much about calculating angles! Thanks for all your explanations...they really help.
Thank you Leigh. I would be more than happy to show you.
Take care,
Gary
Stunning bowl Mr. Gary also like the tool you made. thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it Donald and thanks for watching.
Gary
Thanks for the lessons of how and why you cut the rings. Like the parting tool guide. Simple and sturdier that the previous wooden one.
Thank you Stuart. I had this guide in mind when I made the first one. But I needed something fast so I made the wooden guide. It does work fine and by request I made a video on it. It will still do the job and you can put multiple slots in it. But I do like the new one much better.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
The same idea occurred to me a few days ago. Going to make one out of olive.
Sounds good. I have a think slice of burl that I might do the same.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, it's a beautiful bowl but I think you really outdid yourself in terms of creating an informative teaching video, especially for those who wanted a visual of how it all works and watched to the end. The jig is ingenious but I think you came up short in one detail that will have many of us scratching our heads. You failed to answer the key question: What brand of popsicle? Thanks again for all you offer us.
Beautiful Piece and interesting process. Your new jig worked perfect. Full View and Like 👍
Thank you very much Allen and thanks for watching,
Gary
nice job we must think about the same i make a lot of my own jigs beautiful finish.
Thank you Tom, yes I make everything I can and enjoy doing it.
Happy you enjoyed the video.
Gary
Hi Gary. I made my first bowl of a board and learned a lot. Of course I also had tear-out. (My parting tool has a diamond shape, so that's not ideal). Also when gluing I had made a mistake by not correctly putting the rings back on the woodgrain.🤭
Learned a lot from this video too. I'm going to make a second attempt soon.🤗
You made a verry clever jig. I won't go that far, but it's nice to see how you do this.
Take care!
Frank.
Thank you Frank! My parting tool is a diamond shape as well, Just make sure it is very sharp and listen to the sound the wood makes. When you get within a 1/16 of an inch you can hear the sound change. Very light pressure and you should not get tear out. There might be fuzees on the edge but no tear out.
It is nice to line the grain up but it does not look bad if you have them rotated enough to make it look like you did it n purpose. But I do prefer to line it up most of the time.
Before you cut your rings put a mark across the board on top and bottom. You can use that to line things up.
Take care,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 Thanks Gary. I make a mark next time.
Awesome fixture and bowl. 👍👍
Thank you Gary, I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Take care,
Gary
Gary my goodness that’s snazzy!
Thank you Nicole! I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching,
Gary
Very informative video. You are the master of ring cutting. I have tried it with some success but not completely. Love the explanation at the end. Mike
Thank you Mike, happy you enjoyed the video. Also nice to hear you enjoyed the section at the end. I was not sure how but decided to put it in.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thanks for your explanation and graphics. I enjoyed the video and now see a way of making a "bowl from a board" with some shape, as straight sided forms just don't cut it for me. Thanks again for your considerable efforts to enlighten the rest of us
Thanks so much. I also am not excited about the straight walls. I was sure this option should work and happy I showed it does.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary you done it again, just wow awesome and beautiful. Thanks for expl
Thank you Tony, happy you enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
Fascinating process! Thanks for sharing with all of us!
Thank you Eileen and thanks for watching,
Gary
This is really cool, I'm looking forward to both making the tools, then trying a bowl. Thanks!
Thank you Matt and have fun making this and the bowl.
Gary
Thanks Gary!! Once again totally impressed
Thanks so much Ron and thanks for watching.
Gary
Another 👍👍👍👍👍 video. I'm going to look for the one where you designed/used the wooden jig. I don't have the equipment or expertise to make the aluminum one.
Hi Larry,
Here is the one made from wood:

This one is made from a tool rest I bought and made a simple mod to it:

Excellent fixture! Thank you for sharing the details.
Thank you Leo, happy you enjoyed it and thanks for watching,
Gary
This fascinates me. Really cool. At first I thought you said a yarn bowl not a bowl made from yarran. Lol
Thanks so much. To be honest I am not sure how you actually pronounce yarran LOL. Couple of other woods from Australia I am not sure of either
I just know they are very pretty woods.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Great jig. Simple and effective.
Thank you Julian and thanks for watching,
Gary
Great job and well done with the new jig. Another beautiful piece. Thx for sharing and take care
Thank you and thanks for watching,
Gary
Really great instructive video. Thanks Gary
Thank you Catherine happy you enjoyed it.
Gary
very nice again
Thank you Robert and thanks for watching.
Gary
THATS a super good tool jig. weldone.
Thanks so much Manjit and thanks for watching.
Take care my friend,
Gary
The explanation alone was worth the price of admission! The bowl itself came out beautifully. Gary, thank you so much for sharing all of these things that I’m sure took up a lot of your time to develop. It’s great when someone with your background is available to us!
Cheers,Rick
Thank you very much Rick! I was not exciting such a nice looking bowl but the Yarran is very pretty.
I spent a few hours drawing the part up and did cut some on my CNC and skipped one setup to safe time and cut some on the band saw.
Happy you liked it.
Gary
I am a furniture maker and get the bug to turn about one month out of each year, usually after taking a turning class. I love the idea of turning a bowl from a board, both because it diminishes waste and because it gives rise to design opportunities. I will have to give it a try. Thank you very much for the inspiration.
Thank you very much Eugene and thanks for watching. Happy turning!
Gary
