All wood turners new and old need to pay heed to your remarks about your stance and footwork. Think about what you want your cut to be and position your body to move across the entire cut. My group call it the turners dance. Just like he told you when you get the cut shift your body and your bevel will rotate perfectly through the cut. I hope this reinforces what you said for the newer turners
Love the Turner’s dance. Well, my first instructor used to say, ‘Don’t move the tool, move yourself first, and soon you’ll work together’ Thanks so much, Rod. 🤝 Cheers, Kez
Thank you sincerely, Bill. I'm constantly learning and striving to improve. The journey is long, and I have much to learn, but I deeply value your kind words. Cheers, Kezza
What a treasure your videos are! I'm a beginner turner and I really appreciate all of the angles, the tips, approaches, demonstrations and explanations you provide. I'm learning so much with each one you post! Thank you.
Thank you so much, PBWilson. Your comment means the world to me because that’s my ultimate goal in creating these videos - to be of help. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to further assist you on your Woodturning journey. Cheers, mate. Kez
Thank so much mate. This is part of a video series this is part two A Woodturners guide: Cracked wood restoration with Coffee - Woodturning (Part 2). th-cam.com/video/ffamoxFblTM/w-d-xo.html
I'm really happy to hear that you appreciate the no-nonsense and practical approach! I'll definitely continue doing my best. Thank you for the encouragement. Cheers, Brian. Kez
Wow, thank you! 🙏 I try my best to get the best shots for the most informative videos. I guess at the end of the day, would I want to watch it myself. Cheers mate
Thanks so much, mate. I’ve had a change of channel direction, focusing less on myself and more on providing pure value to help, all without losing the Kez touch. 👌
Another great video I do like the tool pop ups The quirks are good as it shows the real you Have a great evening Thanks again for your time with the videos
Cheers Trevor. It seems like those little tool pop-ups are paying off as being useful. It just helps identify with a close-up of what's being used. I just love sharing what I am learning and I am glad it's helping, mate. Cheers mate. Kez
Thanks so much for the special shout out! And it really is a handy trick! And the best part about it is that you don't have to make or buy anything special. All the tools required come with the lathe. This video is excellent! The camera angles and the explanations are very well thought out. Very easy to tell that you take pride in what your doing. Thanks for sharing Kez.
Thank you for sharing such a cool trick, mate. Much appreciated. Thanks so much for the feedback. I honestly spend a lot of time crafting the final product, and I know that sometimes there's a lot happening on the screen. But there's always the option of going back and rewatching, I guess. I just want to be a useful as possible. Cheers brother. Kez
@@KerryCorney you definitely have the quality down to an art! So here's one for you. So many new turners don't understand all the tool rolling, and lifting/tilting etc. When I first started this was something that I looked for especially. I'm a machinist by trade. And I've been at it for almost 30 years now. Very familiar with lathes. And cutting principals. I think you could make an entire video just dedicated to showing closeups of how we as turners actually roll the tools in and out of the cuts. And while the tool is cutting. You know, in order to maintain the bevel support during the cut. Your videos are so good that I would like to see that from you. I've thought about doing one myself. But you are way better at it. And I make no claims to being a teacher. For new turners that info is very important. I think it would help many people out. Not sure of the title yet tho. What do you think?
Im like your gutsy approach mate, thank you, and thewayyou dealtvwith thetransition from 35 to 45 and 55 degree gouges shed new light on this challenge. Excellent, thank you.
Thank you so much for your comment, John. Sorry for the slow reply. Yes, it is tricky getting a smooth transition. But there is always a scraper to use as well. I just choose not to use them. Thanks, mate🤝 Kez
Hi Kerry, I’m quite new to wood turning …. I’m 56 and have been a joiner/ carpenter for 40 years as was my dad…… when I was an apprentice my old foreman Harold in the work shop was a keen wood turner and very accomplished. How I wish I had asked him more about it at that age but at least I have seen the light now 😊. I stumbled across your channel and love it and I have subscribed ,so thanks for your humorous easy going educational style. I look forward to more content and gaining more inspiration 👍 all the best from Preston, NW England 🏴
Hi Stephen, It's never too late to explore new passions, and it's wonderful that you've found an interest in woodturning. It's really cool to hear about your background in joinery and carpentry - those skills will undoubtedly come in handy and could be incorporated into your turning. I'm glad you stumbled upon my channel and that you're enjoying the content. Thank you so much for subscribing and your kind words! Feel free to ask any questions or share your experiences along the way. All the best from across the pond. Cheer mate, Kez
Just have fun with it, mate. Try different shapes and keep refining it until it looks the best for you. Embrace that process, and happy turning, mate. Let me know how you go. Cheers, Kez
Hey, thanks mate. I get excited when explaining woodturning topics and maybe get a little carried away sometimes. But I am glad it helped. Cheers mate, Kez
Thanks brother. It just helps create a soon flowing curve through. If you run your bowl gouge all the way down you’ll get a steep side (inside) curve. Does that make sense mate? Cheers mate
Not every piece we turn is flawless. Due to this bowl being green (wet). I'll be making a follow-up video on fixing cracks with coffee and my finishing process. Let me know your preferences and how you liked the quick tool pop-ups? •Please read the description for links on where I enhanced my turning. Thanks for your support! See you and talk to you directly. Kezza
I use coffee too. I’m really looking forward to your video on how it’s done properly because I just went ahead with no instruction. There has to be a better way than mine. Do you know when will your video be available?
Thought I'd mention: you frequently switch between working lefthanded and working righthanded. It may feel "abnormal" to a starting woodturner, but it's really useful to learn to work with either hand, it just opens up soo many cuts that would feel impossible or at least difficult otherwise. Just be careful the first view times, and rely on the toolrest for positioning, then people should quickly find they have more control over their off-hand than they think. I still can't write properly left handed, but woodturning left-handed is quite easy.
I asked Starbond how to avoid the bleed and discoloration from applying CA. They recommended spraying the area with accelerator FIRST then apply glue. It works fairly well.
Wow, thank you so much for asking them. Howard. I really appreciate that, mate. In my next video, I’ll try to remember to pass it on to everyone else, and I’ll give it a go myself. Thank you again, Howard. This is what I really like about the Woodturning community-everyone is just out there to help each other. Cheers, Kez
Great video! I always look forward to your latest. I'm a seasoned turner of 25 years but I always learn something new watching your videos. PS - I'm looking for a new band saw. What kind/size do you have? Thanks!
Thanks so much, David. I appreciate the support, mate. So cool that I can help you out in someway. My bandsaw has a 20” throat, 5hp, and three-phase power. It scares me hahaha. Hope that helps, mate. Kez
Good, informative video. Really like the wood. What happened as it dried out? Cracks galore? Oval shape? Appreciate that you turned it wet probably for demo purposes. You have some bloomin long handled tools, so long that the bed way prevents their application. Do you ever use a swivel headstock with extended tool rest? (Must admit I haven't, although just having written I might try it. Bit of a faff, mind, when you can just use a different tool!)
Thanks for the positive feedback, Ray, on the video and the wood. The drying process led to several more cracks opening up. I will show that in the follow-up video. I turned it wet for the demonstration because my first attempt was so dry; I flicked on my big dust extractor and it was too loud, you couldn't hear me over the top of it. That long-handled 19mm gouge I usually use for roughing out. I like the feel of it, and I have buried the tool down further into the handle to reduce vibration on my joints. Oh yeah, the bed of the lathe is longer than usual. I had a long-time Army mate reach out for a custom project, so I needed the bed extension on. I just haven't taken it off yet. My lathes' headstock does swivel out; I use it when sanding or the jumbo jaws on bowls. Thanks so much Ray. Cheers, Kez
Thanks Manuel I’m really glad it helped. This video is the sequel of fill the cracks and splits of the closed form bowl you just watched th-cam.com/video/ffamoxFblTM/w-d-xo.html and I’m now working on the finish turning video. Thanks again Manuel. Cheers, Kerry
I saw on Glenn Lucas web site a Dublin Viking bowl. That shape intrigues me. Does has bowl follow the 1/3 from the bottom rule? Before I saw you video I was thinking the wide part in the middle of the blank. Kind of like a giant bead with a foot on one side and hollow on the other. I guess you have to do both ways to see what you like. As far as mistakes, I had a teacher that said there is no such thing as a mistake in wood turning only a design change. 🙂
G’day Bruce, I really like the point your teacher made that there are no mistakes, just redesigns. I’ve been told the same thing. I think the rules can be used at the discretion of the woodturner. I quite like it when the curve comes from the middle, but sometimes I prefer it if it’s 2/3 from the top down; it looks quite nice. I think just playing with the forms and trying different shapes until you find what you like. Other turners should do the same. Just have fun with it. Happy turning, Bruce. Thanks very much. Cheers, Kez.
@@KerryCorney Possibly. I can’t tell for certain because you switch tools so quickly. I must say I truly enjoy your videos and love your teaching style! I’m in complete awe of the phenomenal timbers you guys “down under” have the access to! The only thing even close to the timber you chose for the closed form bowl that I have here in USA is maybe flaming box elder. What was that lovely wood you used please?
@@darrellreed7044 thank you so much for the support Darrell. The timber is called Camphor Laurel. I think you're referring to the Woodcut bowl gouges. I talk about them in a few videos. They are made In New Zealand. Cheers, mate. Kez
