Bowls From Boards -- Simple technique, spectacular turnings
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ธ.ค. 2021
- A simple technique opens up a world of possibilities for creating figured and patterned bowls. Nick demonstrates a simple jig that slices a board into rings, then glues those rings together to make turning stock for a bowl. This not only saves time and wood, it allows you to create remarkable, eye-catching lathe turnings from scraps.
The plans for the jigs and fixtures used in this video are available from
our store at workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... .This project plan also includes and in-depth explanation of the band saw and turning techniques, as well as the figuring necessary to determine the correct dimensions and angles for the rings, PLUS plans for the assembly table (shown in the video) and a virtual calculator that will do all the figuring for you! The plans for the bowls and the assembly table are in PDF format, while the virtual calculator is an XLS file that will run on most spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel.

"Goes all Harbour Freight on us" 😆
Incredible! I can't imagine how much time you put in while perfecting this technique. Thanks for sharing your method. This is so generous of you as we can benefit from all of your efforts.
Most welcome.
The best woodworking drummer I’ve ever watched.
Wow, what a great tutorial and so many ideas! Thanks for sharing 😊
Most welcome.
Shout out to Travis who works so hard behind the scenes to help make these videos work. He's one giant lad!
In more ways than one. He's 6'4", to be exact. Or 193 cm, to be exact in metric.
"The cambium goes all Harbour Freight." Hahaha!!!!!! Your videos are as entertaining as they are informative. Love it.
Excellent teaching
Thanks for saying.
Great presentation! One of the best woodturning videos that I have seen in a long time.
Way way to complicated. Who is going to made the gig to made the bowl...wood pie?😮
Another gig😂
Genius!. A real craftsman
Best I've seen for board to bowls! Getting the plans and calculator now. Thanks!
Most welcome. Enjoy.
Loved your cambium layer note - I laughed and snorted out loud!
You are like the Einstein of woodworking.
Is it the hair?
A lot of good information there.
Thanks.
thank you for your honesty and authenticity. Its pleasure to see that u dont have any foxtail under ur armpit
This video is a gift. It's plain to see that you put an extraordinary amount of work into this.
You keep topping yourselves. I use the plural because I assume Travis had some part in this achievement. Sure, sure the woodworking here is top notch and infinitely inspirational, but Nick set that bar very high in that domain a long time ago. The accomplishment that stands out to me is the continued improvements in meticulous organization and presentation the of the instructional material. And the massive degree of production work in the form of scripting, shot setups, re-takes, edits and so forth just blows me away.
Your best video prior to this one was was the Router video, which you may recall I commented that it reminded me of the films of Charles and Ray Eames because of it's use of whimsy to convey the educational material. I have no clue what to compare this one to, but it is master level work for sure.
Good one, Thanks
Very professional, and instructive. It is a refreshing change to all those videos which make us watch the entire process. You assumed your viewers were intelligent and able to fill in the boring details! Well Done!
Woodworking tends to be a thinking man's craft; I have no doubt the vast majority of my audience has the three-dimensional imagination needed to fill in what is implied. Thanks for the kind words.
You’re like the Albert Einstein of the carpentry world! I love it! You have the BEST videos! I’m so thankful you exist!
Me too.
Perfect timing for me to find this post. 🌞
Ilike this ideal you are a smart man thank you
very refreshing to listen to an expert with excellent presentation skills teach you how to do something
If it will hold water, it's a bowl. If it doesn't...it's art. This is a splendid lesson! Also pleased to see a Shopsmith in action.
Thanks.
I swear watching you is like attending Wizarding School!
(I don't even own a wand, but I do like sitting in on the classes.)
Thanks.
You are a good professor sir.
mind blowing.
What a great teacher .. a gift to woodturners.
Thanks for the kind words.
God Bless you Brother.
Fantastic. Best video on this subject on the net. No more excuses, time to get in the garage and turn something..
Thanks for saying.
beautiful work and now I have band saw envy!
Thanks, but you should know that there is a tool called a "Ringmaster" that will do this without a band saw. Or you can grind a parting tool to make it about 1/16" (1.5 mm) wide and cut angled rings with that. Takes some skill, but it's not all that difficult.
Sir. YOU are AMAZING!!!!!
Thanks.
I wish you were my neighbor!! I would love to learn from you!!
thank you so much
Great video. Thanks
Thank You! Thank YOU! THANK YOU!!
You're welcome, welcome, WELCOME!
NICK YOUR AMAZING
Thanks.
Beautifull bowl with minimum waste during the process.
sorry - mid-Crash interruption - but as always, an unparalleled - learning opportunity. Thanks Nick and Travis. Robt
With the utmost respect to Gary Ascher over at The papa 1947, that was a brilliant explanation. I have, just about, managed to turn a couple of bowls from boards using just my lathe but failed when cutting them on my bandsaw. Maybe I’ll have another go? I know I’m a few years behind but thank you for sharing 🌞🌞
Most welcome.
My friend and i have completed your jig with great success, very pleased to have found you on u tube and will now follow with great interest, thank you for your channel vince chinnock
Thank you so much!
VERY IMPRESSIVE PRESENTATION, 5 STAR.
Thanks for the kind words.
Omgosh I'm a newbie but ur so talented wished I lived closer so u could teach me I'm so interested but have no one to teach me although ur channel has taught me a lot!! Those bowls n all u make are so beautiful tysm for teaching me !!! Love all u do !!
Oh btw that rolling pin is beautiful wow
Thanks for your kind words.
I love that you give the measurements in mm.
I have to be bilingual. Almost two thirds of our global audience speaks metric.
Thanks Nick. That's given me great inspiration for some Christmas presents!
Thanks. Purchased. Saved me tons of time and saw dust.
Thanks for saying.
Thank you 💞
Excellent idieas.
Fantastic video! Informative and entertaining. And thank you for not inserting dozens of short movie clips as so many other TH-camrs do.

This was an epic episode. Not for beginners. There's so much to learn in this one video, I don't know where to begin, but this is something I now want to do.
Thanks for saying...and good luck.
OMG love it God bless you you are a pro pro pro
Thanks for the kind words.
very nice Nick! Love the Shopsmith!
It's a great lathe -- but if you're going to do a lot of turning, put it up on 6" (15 cm) blocks to stave off a back ache.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
wow really enjoyed this video Thank you so much for sharing it
Straight up sorcery, this is amazing!
Thanks.
Very clever. Never seen this technique before. Thank you.
Most welcome, but I can't claim credit. I first wrote about it nearly twenty years ago, and it was around long before then,
I absolutely love your approach to teaching thank you I can't wait to try this out
Most welcome -- and good luck.
Geniusly Amazing...
Fantastic! I love it! Tanks from Brazil.
You're welcome from Ohio
Brilliant, ill never be able to replicate it, but still, its fun to watch! You're a true Pro!
Don't sell yourself short. It really is as easy as I make it look. But thanks just the same.
Great idea!
Thanks.
Adorei, grande meu fraco trabalho em madeira.!!!!
Obrigado.
Primero decirle que sus cuencos o fuentes de rara, por compleja, realización, son preciosos.
Luego, desde mi punto de vista, que usted está a un nivel muy alto, poco común, nivel de genio creador y científico, que sus trabajos deberían estar expuestos en un museo con la consiguiente explicación, aunque el vídeo ya cumple con este fin. Que le felicito por su pasión por esa su actividad que no sé qué denominación debe tener :
¿ Taracea, marquetería, ebanistería... ?, por su carácter inconformista y lúdico de busqueda. Es usted sorprendente y simpático, aunque esto último creo que no suele ser virtud, salvo honrosas ecepciones, de genio, por ahí, con su actitud y trabajo, se salva usted 😀
Un saludo cordial 👌👍🇪🇸
You are my hero 👍 thanks for the great inspirations 🤗

What a wonderful video. Not only is the subject and detail great but your presentation is awesome. My friend and I will be trying this shortly. Thank you
Awesome I have good success using bowl gouges ! Thanks Nick!
I'm glad you mentioned that. Just yesterday, I was at an event staged by the Ohio Designer Craftsmen and their were several professional turners here who were making ring bowls. Most agreed that rings pose a serious challenge and the inexperienced turner. However, they also said ring bowls could be turned with a properly sharpened bowl gouge and a good deal of practice. I was told to use a thumbnail grind (cut the ears back) and remove a good deal of metal from under the nose so the bevel at the tip was no more than 1/8" (3 mm) wide. Haven't tried it yet -- anything to add?
Love this!! Thank you!!
Most welcome.
I wish you were my teacher when I was taking industrial arts in school! You touched all the bases! Thanks!
Most welcome.
Very very interesting , thank you
merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo très instructive, sujet maitrisé, clair, concis, j'adore, merci encore
Good
Awesome instruction Nick. If I had a lathe, or when I get one, I will definitely give this a try!!
If you're very careful, you can actually do this without a lathe! The math is good enough that you can get the rings to fit together so the bowl wall is smooth enough that all it needs is some hand work. Glue up the rings without the bowl bottom. Smooth the wall with a rasp, a file, and sandpaper. You can also use a float, if you have one. Then glue the bottom on and give it a light sanding.
@@WorkshopCompanion In that case I will give this a try and see how it goes. The bowls you made with this method rival those made with a lathe. Thanks for the tips.
Great teaching!
Thanks.
Thank you. You gave me alot of ideas. Thank you for sharing
Most welcome.
Excelente, gracias Nick.
Da nada.
A very informative video, its clear you have a passion for what you do, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video!!! Thank you!
Most welcome.
Excellent video thanks !
Most welcome.
The thing that sucks about turning bowls a normal way is the waist you turn away - unless you make your own compressed wood pellets. This is a wood saving process and excellent idea. I appreciate the video. Thanks.
