Thanks Scott! Would love to see a video on your process of once turning green and prep work for sanding to finishing steps. I find that it’s hard to sand green, yet once dry bowls are oval then tougher to sand. Keep the great content coming and hope you and your family are doing well!
Thanks Scott this is what I was wanting to see! Going to watch a other time or two. Would be nice to see your kiln to get some ideas how to make one. Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom!
I use paper grocery bags for my roughed out bowls and store in the basement as well. I am in central PA . Anchor seal has gotten to expensive as well . Always interesting to see how other people do things like this thanks for sharing.
When you turn green to finish, does the foot ever go wonky so the bowl is wobbly or does the wonkiness tend to happen on the rim? Thanks, Scott, love your work and your story.
I don't rely on the foot staying flat during drying as it won't. It'll oval a bit as well. I leave just a bit of extra room to be able to flatten the bottom. That amount is species dependent
Hi Scott, wonderful video, full of information, do you agree on the fact that a twice turned bowl is more stable during and after the turning compared to a bowl made out of a solid piece of dryed wood ? Also a video on your food safe finish would be fantastic
It's easier to dry a twice turned piece. But, if both styles are dried properly there's no difference in long term stability. Both are solid pieces of wood. A finish video is on the list. It'll probably be 4-5 weeks out
I use a dehydrator at 3 hrs at 105 degrees I’ve had great success sometime I go from 28 moisture content to 8 % to 10% some time run it 3 times same time ant temp
Most of my utility pieces get Walrus oil board oil. Full disclosure...I'm a dealer for them. But it's a great product that's easy to be reapplied by the end user. But I do use a few other finishes depending on the desired look.

Great video Scott. 12:02 can you just turn the mold off or does it ruin it?
I’m really enjoying your videos and I’m to try your beading technique. What do you generally use for a finish on your bowls?
Most of my utility pieces get Walrus oil board oil. Full disclosure...I'm a dealer for them. But it's a great product that's easy to be reapplied by the end user.

👍👍👍
When you’re turning green to finish green when do you put a finish on your bowl?
After final sanding (I sand twice) and tenon removal. It's literally my last step.
I pretty sure it's the shape of the leaves. For soft or hard
