Thanks Keith, you've just made my attempt at laying out the rings for a segment bowl, so easy to understand. I greatly appreciate all of the work you do, to post these videos. You make things so much easier to understand, then most other's do. You go straight at it, with no bs or amount of blowing your own horn. And that, truly makes your videos, much more enjoyable and a lot easier to learn from. All the best, to you and the lovely Miss Sheila.
Thanks for the great step-by-step description of the process. Very clear and useful. I'll give it a shot. And your bubinga bowl is lovely! Very nice work.
Kieth, I'm new to segmented turning. I've wrestled with the on line calculators, my bowls always ended up small. Thanks! to this video I drew up a segmented diagram per your suggestion and I have a much better understanding / confidence, of the geometry. Thanks! again. PS: I enjoy all your videos and consider them tutorials. Cheers!
I have trouble getting TH-cam to play; this word app I know not. Thanks for giving us an old fashion simple way to determine our segments. Great information - well presented! Oh and the bowl looked great too!!! Mark
Well done Keith You do inspire me to try new stuff, I have just started segmenting and its a lot harder than it looks but a lot of good tips there thanks! Roy
Hello Keith. Nice video, I must try a segmented bowl. One little tip for you take it or leave it. When you use your drill driver to tighten the band (hose clamp) try using just the extension with out the flat blade screw driver bit. The extension should be 1/4 of an inch to except 1/4 inch bits. Most band clamps are 1/4 of an inch, not all but most that are made here in the US. I have even used a 1/4 inch socket from a drive set. Of course if they are metric I am sure that is no challenge to you. I find you don't slip off the brand screw as with the flat blade bit. Hope that make sense and you find it helpful. Keep up the great videos they are very helpful. Thanks Ed.
Hi Ed, I did actually try that,but the clips are that old and chewed up it wouldn't go on! Going to get some new ones tomorrow,and will use the socket!
Thank you, that made it easy to wrap my head around segments. Im in a bigtime natural bowl phase, but im toying with the idea of trying segments. I have ALOT of suitable size material to make segments from, that is piling up.
an awesome video as always, good sir, very well done and very useful indeed. the bowl came out beautiful, thank you so much, keep up the good work and take care :)
Good video Keith. It's probably important to mention that a 30 degree segment has 2 x 15 degree cuts. With the Seggy's, it's all done for you of course but if you cut at 30 degrees on one side, you will not get a circle :). So for 10 segments, the cut angle would be 360/20 = 18 degrees. So each segment would have 2 cuts of 18 degrees from the centre line. I hope I managed to explain that properly :)
Yes,but I think everybody understood what I was trying to explain,according to the comments I've had. I didn't say cut at 30 degrees,I said mark out at 30 degrees.Sorry I didn't get it perfect (sarcasm!) 😀
I’m a tad late in both viewing and commenting Keith but job well done! Came out very nice indeed... I’ve got to buy your gadgets for segment cutting. Thanks!
Brian McClatchy Hi Brian, it doesn’t matter how late you are,these videos will always be here! I’ve sold over 200 sets of Seggys now,all over the world,and not had a complaint yet!😄You can get them on my website if you decide you want some.Cheers,Keith.
Very well done Keith. Great tip on measuring across a tangent instead of the corners of the segment to achieve the desired diameter. One more problem I've had is how to calculate the diameter of the next ring. On one hand you need an ample glue surface between the two rings, and on the other hand you don't want to waste away too much of that beautiful wood. Do you have a simple formula for determining the diameter of each successive ring?
Hi Gil, I usually go down(or up) 1inch,so the step is only half an inch.This seems to give me a good glue up surface,and still relatively easy to turn.The important thing is not to make the segment too narrow from inner to outer.About one and a quarter inches works for me.😀
Hi Keith, could I (respectfully) suggest that you use an 8mm socket to tighten the jubilee clips, they don't jump out like a screwdriver bit so you have more control while tightening :) Lovely piece again mate,
Good idea that I did actually try,but the clips are that old and chewed up it wouldn't go on! Going to get some new ones tomorrow,and will use the socket! 😄
Hello Keith, Really like your bids, along with mike waldt's. I just cut a few segments too.the wedgie sled is great. Can you please let me know the make of table saw that you use as I'm on the lookout for a new one, Cheers. Richard :-)
Hello again Keith. That's great many thanks. The Lumberjack looks pretty identical to the Titan table saw that you can buy from Screwfix. I have the titan planer/thicknesser and really like it. I think I've seen a titan table saw in your earlier vids if I'm not mistaken. If so would you recommend one? Many thanks again. Richard :-)
Richard Adams Hi Richard,I also have the Titan planer/thicknesser,great piece of kit.I used to have a Titan table saw,but I didn’t like the bolt on extensions,so I went for the Lumberjack one which has sliding extensions,which enables me to store it under my workbench when not in use,and a bigger blade.Let me know what you decide on! 😀
Hi Tom,and thanks.Still having a crisp sandwich every evening for supper! If you order a set of seggys,let me know first and I'll do you a special price.

What a bloody clever simple system. Why didn't I think of it? Thanks Keith.
Well explained for the segments work and lovely finished bowl, thanks for sharing this video with us. 🙏🏼
Hi Keith, excellent explanation of the procedure! The bowl looked superb, lovely surface finish. Thank you.
Thanks for the great step-by-step description of the process. Very clear and useful. I'll give it a shot. And your bubinga bowl is lovely! Very nice work.
Thankyou very much indeed. I'm pleased you found it useful :)
You're the best turner on TH-cam,,enjoyed this video.
I don't know about that!!
Great video Keith and the segment guide things look like they make the whole job really easy.
All the best
Tony
Thanks Tony,they certainly take any guesswork out of cutting the segments!😀
Great job Keith. That bowl is awesome.
Thankyou very much Mike 😀
Its a great bowl and thanks for easy to follow instructions,
thanks
James
Many thanks James.Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Another great piece, Keith
Thankyou very much 😀
Great video. And a beautiful bowl. 👍🏻
Thankyou very much Raymond 😀

Nicely explained and a lovely bowl mate !
Cheers Bram
Thanks pal !! 😀😀
Thanks Keith, that was very helpful and well explained.
Thanks Pamela,glad it helped :)
Nice one Keith,hope Sheila is impressed!😆😆😆😆
Alan Mullock Thanks Alan.Unfortunately she likes it,which means yet another bowl I can't sell ! 😄
Very informative vid mate. I've got some of leon's pre cut stuff to play with then i'll try my own cutting after watching this.
Hi Greg. I sent some seggys to Leon for trialling,and he uses them,so you'll get a good kit if you order from him!
I have trouble getting TH-cam to play; this word app I know not. Thanks for giving us an old fashion simple way to determine our segments. Great information - well presented! Oh and the bowl looked great too!!! Mark
Karol's Kakes Thanks Mark. I like to try and explain things in a way that I would understand,nice and simple!
Nice one. Very well explained. Well done you 😀
Thankyou very much Steven 😀
Well done Keith You do inspire me to try new stuff, I have just started segmenting and its a lot harder than it looks but a lot of good tips there thanks!
Roy
Thanks Roy. You sure do need a lot of patience,but sometimes the results can be stunning! 😀
Great video Keith as usual thanks
Many thanks Mick 😀
That was a great video Keith
John Campbell Thankyou very much John. 3 days work turned into 20 minutes!😄
nice work Keith
Truly great vid. Thanks for all the work of producing this, I learned a lot!
Thankyou very much Earl :)
Nice work there Keith the bowl looks great just wish I had time to do one myself , all the best
Barry Cook Cheers Barry. That Bubinga is a very nice wood! Segmenting is fiddly and time consuming,but the end products usually worth the effort! 😄
Thank you for the demonstration Keith. Júlíus
Thankyou for watching 😀

A trick : you can watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
@George Markus Yea, have been watching on flixzone} for months myself :D

Hi Keith, thanks for the video. I have just made a segment sled. Brill. Making another pencil bowl. Cheers mate.
Thanks Daniel,best of luck with your projects!
I got my seggys, thanks Keith.
David Swanson Great! Thanks David 😄

Hi Keith, are. The segments still for sale ? And many thanks for easy work around for segments
Beautiful!
Thankyou :)

Thanks David,much appreciated 😃
How do you figure how thick your wood is ie: 3/ 4 or 1inch thickness.Beautiful bowl
Hello Keith,
Really like your bids, along with mike waldt's.
I just cut a few segments too.the wedgie sled is great.
Can you please let me know the make of table saw that you use as I'm on the lookout for a new one,
Cheers. Richard :-)
Richard Adams Hi Richard,the table saw is a Lumberjack,just google it and it should come up! Their service is pretty good.Cheers,Keith.😀😀
Hello again Keith.
That's great many thanks.
The Lumberjack looks pretty identical to the Titan table saw that you can buy from Screwfix.

Ron Alcock Many thanks Ron 😀
Great job Keith 😎. Must get some 'Seggys' ordered off you soon mate. Say hello to Sheila for me, hope she left you some crisps 😂😂
Hi Tom,and thanks.Still having a crisp sandwich every evening for supper! If you order a set of seggys,let me know first and I'll do you a special price.
Thank you.
very nice bowl...bubinga wood is very nice
Sure is.It gets better with sanding and polishing,a beautiful wood😀
Got to keep the young ladies busy or they find something we should be Doing! 😆😆😆😆😆😆
how do I get the things you are selling....IN the US
Just go to the website,click on whatever you want,like seggy or centre finder,and click on the rest of world button to pay.
Gorgeous bowl Keith I think the inserts make it special cos it looks like basket weave.
Dawn Mason Thanks Dawn.Very time consuming though!😄
is very good
Thankyou very much Jose :)
I tired to send you an email through your website and I got some sort of a replay that was pretty off the wall.
