An absolutely stunning bowl Gord, your quest for perfection is relentless, us lesser mortals would possibly have left that "little" concave area, for fear of taking one pass too many ;). Great series my friend.
Take care
Mike
I don't know about perfection, Mike, but I do believe in doing the very best I can and try not to settle for less. Sometimes I get much less. :-)
Thanks for the kind words; I'm glad you liked the results.
All the best, Mike,

Nothing like being behind the times, just 5.5 - 6 years. I have enjoyed watching this video immensely Gord. Your attention to detail constantly amazes me together with your carefully & accurately constructed commentary make for an amazing 40 minute entertaining & educational video. I think the finished product is amazing and so pleasing on the eyes. Anyone would be proud to have this piece on display in their home. I feel I would like to say more but am lost for words except to say 'thanks for sharing this video & you skills'. Don from South Aust.
Thank you, Don! This is one of my wife's favorite pieces. I'd like to say that she has good taste but she picked me so I have to wonder about that!!! LOL!! Thanks for watching, Don! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

I like it, especially the Indian Blanket design. I might use this in a cookie bowl with a lid. thanks for the inspiration and teaching.
My pleasure, Randy. I’m glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
Great! I'd like to try this, but probably not for a beginner! Just getting the center ring done would be an accomplishment.
We were all beginners at one time, Rose. After a few hundred (thousand?) hours of practice I felt it was time to start doing more complex work. I'm sure it will be the same for you. Any turner who says he/she can't do it simply hasn't put in enough hours practicing. Luckily, I've always enjoyed turning so spending many hours in front of the lathe has never been a chore.
I hope you will have as much fun turning as I do. Thanks for watching, Rose!

Thank you Gord for a superb and very sophisticated piece of turning. I thought I was making progress as a turner but you've floored me completely. On the other hand you've pushed me to always aim for something higher.The finished item is just beautiful.The only thing I can contribute is about some turners not finishing projects to perfection. I've been in a very good wood turning club for just under a year. Each month we have a competition and the principal judge is a guest demonstrator and I mean people such as Cindy Drozda. I've managed to scrape a few third prizes and one of the things I've learned is boy, you need to have your finishing done to perfection. No unsanded bases, no sanding marks and so on.It has pushed me to a standard I never thought myself possible of.Happy turning.Many thanks,Alan.
Hi Alan,
Congratulations on your prizes. Third prize is certainly a good step in the right direction. I had Cindy Drozda critique one of my pieces once and was flattered that she actually liked it. Sure could make it hard to put my hat on if I wore one ;)
Thanks for watching, Alan. I really appreciate the support!!!

Great video and project Gord! Makes me want to get out in the shop and do another segmented turning myself. Thanks for posting this video! Take care, Steve
Thank you, Steve. I'm happy you liked it.

I think the shape is spot on !! Good Turning !
Thank you very much, Jerry.
Have a great day,

I like the way you don't cut the repetitive turning / gluing steps from editing, it feels so relaxing to me for some reason, it's like watching asmr videos. I love it. Also, nice vessel !

A perfectionist is never happy with his work but I think it is splendid and it was intriguing watching it come together. I was thinking about ceramic pots while I watched and it struck me that both start from materials that do not resemble the end result, Watching both forms take shape is like watching the birth then growth of a child to adulthood. amazing work. you rock Gord! 🙄
Thank you Robyn. I'm happy you like it. I must admit I like it quite a lot now; it took a little time for it to really grow on me but it is now one of my favorite pieces.
Thank you for watching & commenting. I appreciate the support!!

Another really well done project Gord.
I'm getting a new larger lathe and I've been thinking upon a steady rest for it. I was thinking of something like yours but hadn't worked out how to make it, I'll checkout the other video and steal some ideas from it.
Thank you so much, Gordon.
I bet you're excited about the new lathe. If you don't mind my asking, what are you getting. Hope you'll be happy with it.
Thanks for watching!!
Take care,
.....Gord
Oneway 2436. Going from a 3/4hp 12" to a 3hp 24" is going to be awesome. It should be here sometime in October. My current lathe is alright but it is under powered for some of the things I try to do. I could have gone with the 20" but it was only $300 difference so I went bigger.
I just watched your video where you made the blanket design. I was thinking “man I wish I could see him turn that into a bowl” then bam there it was the next video. That was even cooler than I imagined. Absolutely phenomenal sir!
I’m glad you liked it, Russell. Thanks for watching. I appreciate the support.

An amazing bit of turning. Not sure how I've gone this long without seeing any of your videos before, but you've earned yourself another subscriber. That donut chuck is just brilliant. I've never seen anything like it before. :)
Thanks for subscribing, Baba! I appreciate the support. I'm glad you like the donut chuck; I couldn't be without mine. It's so handy for so many things.
Have a great day,

Hi Gord,
Another truly inspirational project your attention to detail, even when you can't see it is phenomenal. Thanks again for sharing such well presented information. I feel another project looming, I want to try the Indian blanket desighn but am finding this very difficult without a drum sander but am sure there is a way round this. All the best to you and your twin.
Chris
Thank you for the kind words, Chris. I hope you find a way to make the Indian Blanket without a drum sander. I'm sure you will manage it if you want to. There is always a way.
Thank you for your best wishes. He's sulking right now so doesn't want to respond. LOL!!!
Take care,
.....Gord
I'm so glad to see you included credits for the music you used .
I'm always hearing stuff i like but have no way to find out what it is sense
most uploaders don't include it in their credits .
Glad you appreciate it, Chris. I’ve been doing these videos for quite awhile and you are the first one who has said that. Thanks for watching!

You are indeed a perfectionist. P
Thank you! I think.... 🤔🤔🤔
I've been following along with the other videos and I love the final product.
Thank you. It’s one of my wife’s favourites!
Hi Gord! That vessel is amazing! Beautiful design and masterful technique! Congratulations my friend! Cheers! Daniel
Thank you, Daniel. Much appreciated. I always appreciate your watching & commenting.

Gord Rock Gord, I was wondering, where did you get the logo coin. I have developed a logo myself and it would be great to have something similar (if you do not mind sharing :) ) Cheers! Daniel
+Daniel Vilarino A friend made the logo coins for me quite a few years ago on a CNC machine where he worked. Unfortunately, he no longer works there and I don’t have access to more. I’m not sure where I will get more when I run out of them. Sorry I’m no help in locating them for you!
Oh! It makes sense, I wonder if you send the picture somewhere they would make the coins for you. I do not have a CNC but seems like a great tool to have. I am going to do some research and if I find anything I will let you know! Cheers! Daniel
that is very impressive work!
Thank you, Beau! Thanks for watching! I appreciate the support!

What a wonderful piece! Your attention to details was great. What was the actual elapsed time, not counting the feature ring, to create this vessel?
I couldn't really tell you how long it took to do. I was doing a number of other things at the same time and setting up lighting and camera equipment adds a lot of time, as does the video editing. Discounting that I would guess it would take me a little over a week but then I also don't work 8 hours a day at it. I'm retired and work slowly and as I feel like it. So I'm afraid I can't give you a good guess at the number of hours I put into a project like this. Also, if I knew how many hours I spent on a segmented project I may not want to do them anymore. Sorry I can't be more helpful with your question.
Thanks for watching!!
.....Gord
It's fantastic. The talent from God! A true professional!
Thank you very much for the kind words but I'm not a professional and my only talent is being patient; and I'm not very good at that! I'm glad you like it anyway. Thanks for watching & commenting.

Fantastic piece Gord great shape well balanced,Very good video so well put together very informative. I always like the work you do, you are a perfectionist Gord . Hey maybe you can do a collaboration piece with that other Guy if he's up to it
Thank you, John. I'm really glad you liked it.
THE OTHER GUY doesn't turn; he just hangs around getting in the way!! ;)
Take care,
.....Gord
+Gord Rock I kind of thought so I have this fella that turns up some time but I just take a pill and PooF he's gone He not even any good at conversation I always know what he's going to say, hahah ;O)
LOL That's a good one!!!!
+Gord Rock I for got to say He is a good looking he looking fella the same as me, Imust be handsome chap haha
wow that steady rest tool you have is quite nice! where did you get it? i could use one myself!
I'm glad you like it, Beau. I built it myself. If you'd like to build one, I have a video showing how to put it together. You can find it at: th-cam.com/video/P0CJF-lMe3E/w-d-xo.html
I hope you enjoy building it. There are many out there that are built differently and you can buy them, but they can be very expensive. This one was cheap to build and works just fine for me. Thanks for watching!

Great bowl Gord. Question from a new turner...why the "floating" ring?
Hi Gary,
A floating disc removes the problem that can occur when using a segmented bottom due to expansion/contraction movement of the wood. Although the segments on the body of a turning don't seem to show any movement the bottom will often show a shifting of the segments over time. I've had a number of pieces that were perfect when finished but after a few months holding up the bowl or vessel and looking at the bottom with a light behind there would be light visible between some of the segments. A floating disc alleviates that problem. Also, some turners like to use a solid piece for the bottom but there again the shifting of the wood can cause it to crack because all the way around the wood is being held by the body it is glued to. I hope this answers your question.
Thanks for watching!!
Take care,
.....Gord
Espetacular! Maravilhoso!
Thank you, Arina. I'm glad you liked it.
Take care,
.....Gord
Thanks Gord. So if the bottom s one solid piece, not segmented, it won't move?
No, that's not what I mean. Wood will contract and expand no matter what you do. If a solid bottom is glued to a segmented piece, at some point the movement of the wood can cause a crack to develop SOMEWHERE on the piece. Because the grain direction of the segments is constant the pressure will USUALLY cause the bottom to crack. But that's not a hard and fast rule. It COULD cause the side of the piece to crack. Ray Allen, one of the best segmenters there ever was, used solid bottoms and had very good luck with them. Cracking MAY never occur! It is just a possibility and the floating disc removes that possibility.
Hope this makes more sense.
Take care,
.....Gord
bellisimo

Azon a kis lyukon mit lehet bele tenni, és kivenni belőle? Szép munka, csak értelmetlen. --What can be put in and taken out of that little hole? Nice job, just pointless.
The vessel is not meant to contain anything as it is just an art piece.
Kkkkk
I don’t know what that means but thanks for watching. 😃
.....Gord
@@GordonRock1 I really enjoyed your work, thanks for the video ... I live in Brazil and I'm going to buy a lathe and I'll make some pieces and I'll try to make one like yours.
I hope you will enjoy woodturning as much as I do, Paulo. Thanks for watching my video.

@@GordonRock1 your pieces are very beautiful.A hug and thank you, God bless you.
