Rob, I've dabbled in woodturning for a few years now but I have to say you have pure magic hands and your method of instructing and explaining is the absolute tops. Thank you very much. An Aussie fan
ive watched quite a few turners' videos but this is the first video that helped me understand the difference between scraping and a sheer cut. thank you for the practice exercises as well
Brand new to the channel but it didn’t take long to figure out this is definitely a channel worth subscribing to!
I'm really enjoying this lathe series you have going! Very informative.
Once again thanks for that. I will be re-watching this over and over to get the hang of it once i get my machine.
Best demonstration I have seen. thx
Thanks for this! i am looking forward to trying these techniques when I get my lathe!
I'm a newbie to the lathe scene, so I'm loving these videos, Rob~! School me, brother~!! :-)
Glad you like them
Another great lesson, Rob. Thank you!
I’m still kind of a beginning machinists but I’ve always wanted to try this! Thanks for the great instruction! I’ll be trying this soon. 👍
Thank you rob wonderful information
Well done Rob some of the best instruction on turning I’ve watched. This and your skew video
I have not yet had a chance to work on a lathe - it looks really relaxing.
Great video!
Surprised that I didn't comment about your turning here Rob. Technically, the tool you are using is a 'spindle detail gouge' and has a ) shaped flute. The spindle roughing gouge is another tool with a half round flute shape. It is intended for roughing out spindles.
As for the grip on your tool, a line I used from an old black and white Hollywood movie about Cyrano De Bergerac. I knew it was really good when I heard a guest on the Roy Underhill show use it about holding hammers. Cyrano disarms a student, and then tells the student, "Hold the sword as you would a bird. Too tight and you kill it. Too loose and it flies away."
Thank you very much for this great lesson 🐞
You are welcome!
a tip for beginners:
paint the bevel with a sharpie befor sharpening. That way you can be sure you have covered all of it because you can see where you removed material.
My good Sir,
you are the most informative wood worker on YT ! Loving your content and how you put valueable info in a understandble manner.
Advertising you to all my german woodworker friends ever since i found you.
Vielen Dank
@@RobCosmanWoodworking Sehr gern
HI rob I do quite a bit of wood turning and I think u definitely a master at all the wood working. weldone.
Thanks and thanks for watching
Now this is what you tube is all about...love it...your a good teacher you touch on the important subtleties that others fail to mention...some of you Canadian Boys are OK...keep up the great work your doing...stay safe...
We have lots of trees and maple syrup too
RobCosman.com LMAO...🤙
Love the videos!!! Rob, I’ve noticed your voice seems to be struggling in the last few videos and your breathing seems slightly labored at times. I hope your health is fine and that it’s just from using your voice too much. God bless and thank you for all the work you and your staff do for vets!
i would bet he just yells so much when he plays hockey that it makes him hoarse
Great video, doesn’t matter how long you have been turning for, I always find their is something to learn from others. Hats off to the free hand sharpening, did it for years until I finally invested in a Tormek jig, now my gouges are super sharp and at the same angle every time very quickly.
Thank you for the suggestions! One follow up, if possible.... any suggestions for making repeat legs that match? I find I can get close but usually noticeably different.
Great video. Any bowl turning tips?
Random thought. But how about getting James Hamilton from stumpy nubs on one of the Saturday q and a videos. You've mentioned him before and he's done videos on your dovetail technique.
Love it. Some of those edits made me think you should produce an out takes video 😎
Luther is actually working on one of thise
Hi Rob, I use a small mini lathe for dollhouse items. I try stair spindles & posts, bed spindles, legs, fireplace pillars, draw pulls etc. I work with 3/8" beach wood blanks. Do you mark the before the planing/cutting your piece. I need consistency for matching spindles.
Hey Rob what is a decent Lathe for beginners? What are your thoughts on the Jet 12 21 ?
You have a cold? Sounding a but gravelly, chicken soup and french onion soup with a glass of orange juice or cranberry juice will set you right pretty quick. I’m just learning to turn wood. Couldn’t be more timely for me, always helpful, thanks kindly.
I knew you could use it!
Dumb question: Trying to cleanup a cove, is it bad form to get a sanding spindle or even a rat-tail file in there to perfect it? A low-diameter spindle-shaped object can be made to act with a wider radius be angling it, no?
Sooooo.... not but 10 minutes ago.... I understand what Rob was talking about. Yes, that 1000 grit side on a Trend WILL abrade your skin down pretty quickly, and you won’t even notice, until your blade starts looking red. Broke in the 300 side, took a plane blade to the 1000 side with the ruler to start working the back while following the 32 seconds to sharp video, wore the skin right off the side of the tip of my RH middle finger! Now I’m off to get some gauze at the store. I will have to watch this video when I get back LOL.
As the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail would have said... it’s just a flesh wound. Just had to get it to stop bleeding, and learn to keep my finger up higher and on top of the plane blade when trying to work my old thing Stanley blade.
Interesting video, it seems like once you’ve got the requisite tools and lathe, it could actually be kind of fun to make a bunch of shavings pretty quickly! For small garage shops starting up w/ only 110v power, is there a basic lathe you’d recommend starting out with Rob?
I hear so much about slow-speed grinder for sharpening. Is that critical? Must it be slow-speed?
Hmm. There used to be a time when students were taught to pound the spindle blank onto the spur/star drive while it was mounted in the headstock. Don't know of any one who teaches that method any more. Primary reason is that the headstock bearings are not made for that type of load, and you can ruin them that way. Pound the drive into the end of the spindle blank while it is on the bench, then insert into the headstock. Yes, that pounding can damage even an old made in Canada General lathe.
On the CBN wheels, 80 grit is very coarse. If I am only getting one, I suggest getting the 180 grit. It leaves a nice burr on scrapers, and a fairly utilitarian cutting edge for 90% of what you are turning.
Good to see you are still out there. I’m subscribed to your channel and have missed seeing your videos. Maybe you retired! Enjoy life!
@@KevinCoop1 I did retire from production turning and making my tools. I moved to a new house and shop, and still getting organized. I will have some new videos out this year, hopefully...
@@robohippy Awesome! Same channel, or new one?
Where / how do you stand? Off to the side? Which side? In front? Also, I am scared to death of my roughing gouge. More catches than a baseball league. Can I throw it away?
Hi Rob, hope you see this even though the video has been up for two months. You say you are using and sharpening a Spindle Gouge! I have been turning since 1960 (grade 9 Shop Class). Your gouge is a Bowl Gouge and you are putting a Traditional/Bottom Feeder grind on it. I am interested in hearing your thoughts. Thanks, I enjoyed watching you on the lathe... PF Ontario

@@RobCosmanWoodworking Hi Rob, thank you for such a quick reply. My reference to Spindle Gouge is for the shape of the grind and not the Mfg Name of the tool. So, Spindle gouges have a shallower (less than half of the steel is in the flute, more steel below the flute). Bowl gouges have a deeper flute to clear more chips, the flute is deeper than half of the steel.
Now, for the different grinds: Spindle grind is about 25 degrees, very long using the thicker steel remaining from a shallower flute.. Bowl grind is steeper at about 55 degrees in either a “V” or “U” shaped flute, usually in a Fingernail shape about 3/4” long cutting edge. Traditional grinds are not ground back in the fingernail shape but rather just sharpened around the end, usually on the platform but can also be done as you demonstrated.
I cannot see exactly how deep your flute is but since Henry Tailor calls it a Spindle Gouge I assume it has a shallow flute as I note above.
The grind you are putting on your gouge is a traditional grind, very little steel taken back from the front edge, we usually do this for improved access to the bottom of bowls where the Fingernail grind will loose bevel contact as you round into the bottom of the bowl.
Sorry to be so long winded but I know you are a stickler for details.

I'm sure my experience is the same as other occasional turners. Ever time I need a spindle, I have to almost relearn what I forgot (including the runback teeth gritting). Each time I resolve to keep the practice up but I never do.
Yup i totally know what you are talking about
Great lesson, but I'm wondering how to make four the same, rather than one of a kind four times over. Maybe a prescriptive plan is needed and adhered to.
Turn one, split it, trace and cut out a template and use it to match all four.
Many, many great points during this video. Two that I picked up on immediately were, cut from the lower half of the skew and when you are getting saw dust instead of shaving, it's time to resharpen. I've never really known just when to resharpen the turning tools, I usually press on until I notice that it's taking a bit more pressure to cut the wood. Please do a video on the bowl gouge, it's the one tool that I have the most catches with.
I dont do bowls. I turn furniture parts, so i wont be much help in the bowl turning world
@@RobCosmanWoodworking I really hoped that you could do one on the bowl gouge because I've noticed that your other videos really show the small intricacies of using a tool or doing a process. No harm in asking, thanks for getting back to me.
Same channel, just a new shop...
Really stupid question...is that water or oil you're dipping into to cool?
Haha, “start it again”
Sorry, Rob but you are sharpening with a massive divot in the chisel. If you don't believe me, just watch your own video. Not something I would be teaching anyone, particularly beginners.
Hey Rob, I'm very sorry. this time I'm not impressed.
Well Jose, 300+ videos and one you don’t like, I can live with that!
@@RobCosmanWoodworking Thank you Rob. I'm a big fan. 👍
