John - Thanks for taking the time to produce this video. As a new wood turner, I have had difficulty using the spindle gouge without getting a catch and didn't know why I was getting them. Your video showing the way the tool is angled to the wood with the bevel pointing where you want to go then scooping will help me enormously going forward. Can't wait to practice it in the morning.
Great video on hand sharpening. I have retired and started wood turning about six months ago and have not wanted to purchase a sharpening jig if I can hand do it. Your info was jut what I needed. I went to the shop, tried it and was quite satisfied with the results. Thanks for the video.
I agree with the other viewers here. This offered several "ah ha" moments for me as a newbie. The ice cream analogy was particularly helpful. I'll be trying to implement these concepts today... Thank you!
Just what I needed the hows and whys. I just bought a Crown Pro-PM detail giuge and all I get is a lot of catches and frustrations. I didn't scoop. I'm giving it a try ronight. Thank's buddy.
I have a passionate hate for this chisel as i dont know how to use it properly and just as i have almost finished a replica stair spindle i go to do the coves and it dances all over my hard work . Thanks for the tips fella !
I'm a little confused by the first part of the video, turning downhill on the grain: once the piece rotates 180 degrees, you'll be cutting uphill. Does that mean one side will be smooth and the other jagged, always?
Fabulous video. Can't wait to try the skew

Totally agree with RonRadliff - I am new to Woodturning, amd this is the best tuition I've watched...thanks very much.
Simple the best and simplistic explanation about doing coves. Thank you sir!
The tips you gave to prevent kickback and spiral cuts are extremely helpful. Great camera angle too. Look forward to viewing more videos of yours.
Very good video , I just learn a few thing from this video Great Job ,.
I think this might be my new "go to" channel to learn about turning. Thanks for the detailed description of what you are doing and what doesn't work.
Thank you very much for publishing this video ..helped me al ot

The best tutorial I had seen!
Informative and helpful. It also made me hungry for ice cream.
Thanks so much for taking the time to make and share this video. Great explanation of the process.
Very excellent instructions. Being a newbie this video has helped me improve my turning skills significantly. Thank you.
Thanks John, I'm on board with all these others; this is super and extremely helpful.

Thanks John. Another useful video.
Really helpful, cheers.
thanks for that.
that has really helped me as I didn't know that you could use a parting tool for sizing the cove.
Thanks for the tip

Its a very good tutorial
thanks
this helps a lot! Thank's!
Love all your videos. Your videos should be given with every new lathe sold. There would be a lot less frustrated turners.
Your explanations made a lot of sense to me....do you have a bead demonstration?.....a subscription?
Fantastic !!! Please tell me what speed of the winch (rpm) you used ??

I shoud add that I started wood turning 2 weeks ago:)
If I could only get 1 spindle gouge would you recommend a 3/8" or 1/2" - thank you
how low is the tool rest? is that typical for a gouge? thx
