A lovely little bowl. Very glad to see it next to its big brother. As always you explain your techniques with great clarity, my thanks. The socks, waxy and less waxy, keep doing socking good duty. Thanks for another entertaining and educational video.
I had the pleasure of meeting Richard Raffan when I was a member of the Toowoomba and District Woodworking Turning Club, a group of fifty members hired a large bus 🚌 and the hire of the bus was included in the price.
Thanks Richard I like making these sized bowls. I just ordered a step jaw set of your signature vicmarc 128mm i think for my 120 chuck anyway thanks again. ( Packard woodwork) have been using the shark jaws often.
This is an endgrain bowl so centrework techniques apply. I use bowl gouges for roughing down very large centrework blanks and hollowing crossgrain bowls.
The wax is melted by friction on to and into the wood. The sustained pressure of the rag melts the wax further into the wood with surplus melting into the rag. Eventually the rag is so full of wax that, with some timbers, application of the waxy rag is sufficient.
Great looking bowls, Richard. I love making little ones like that also. I would really like to know what oil you used to fill the end grain with. It was obviously quick and easy to use. Thank you!

I have said it before but I have no idea how this channel... with the godfather of wood turning.. does not have 1M subscribers!
Your masterclasses are treasure! Thank you endlessly!
As always it's a pleasure to see how easy you make it look. I can only aspire and practice.
I really like watching projects like these -- simple, elegant shapes and seeing the tool use and jam chuck fitting is very helpful.

Beautifully done! The pair look so good together. And always a pleasure to watch and learn from you sir. Thank you!
Brilliant. Love the waxy sock and less waxy sock 🤣. Thanks again Richard for sharing your no waffle commentary and expertise.
Well done Richard. That is a very nice little bowl. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Nice little bowl, thanks for sharing your years of knowledge and skill Richard.
Interesting tip about the grain direction and cutting the inside first. I will put that in my pocket and remember for a similar situation. Thanks
Sometimes turning small things is just as fun as turning large things. Nice job!
... and usually requiring more skill.
Just amazing work. Watching your actions and processes are mind blowing for me as a new turner. Keep up the amazing work. 👽

Nicely played, sir, nicely played!

Very nice, thanks for another great video.
Thanks for sharing Richard
It amazes me every time I watch you. I know you own a bowl gouge but I bet it is covered in dust.

Excellent, thank you

Curious about your beeswax the block I buy is rather hard. Is there a way that you get the hard wax softer to get it into your rag

I'm trying rice bran oil and it seems to be ideal.
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning Never would have guessed! Thank you.
@@RichardRaffanwoodturningIs this the stuff from the grocery shop ?
@@timmurden5846 Yes, from Aldi in this instance.
@RichardRaffanwoodturning thanks Richard , I didn't know you had Aldi in Oz,I'min the UK ,I'll have to give it a try 👍🏻
Lucky nuts! I see you changed up your usual decoration on the bottom of the bowl. Any reason for that?
Endgrain usually gets grooves because they're quick and easy, crossgrain gets gouge-turned or scraped beads for cleaner cuts.
