Having just recently started turning, I can confirm it's much harder than it looks. The learning curve can be very steep at times. So I can't overstate how much your videos have helped. You're a great teacher, Kent. I just wanted to say thanks.
Thank you for writing and sharing Jon! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Beautiful bowl! Great recovery from the missing bark. Good hint on leaving the base high and just sanding it level again 👍
❤
You weren’t kidding about that interface..had my nastiest catch there, my bowl flew off the chuck! No injuries to myself or the bowl 😅
Glad to hear no injuries. Stay safe and Happy Turning!
Beautiful!
Awesome video Kent! I haven’t turned a crotch like the one you just completed but after watching, I plan to this week. I cut some walnut trees and have some pieces I saved just for this project. Thank you so much for your help. Jim L.
Thank you, Jim. Walnut will be great. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Let us know how it works.
I just started a fresh cut walnut crotch bowl yesterday that the neighbor and i took down. It's plenty wet so we'll see if it cracks
I'm inspired! Thank you.
You are so welcome, Maggie! Happy Turning!
I have turned pieces like that, very nicely done. Difficulty factor high. Thanks for sharing.
Wunderschön gemacht 👌sieht klasse aus mit dem schönen Farbenspiel 👍👏
Thanks! Really like the continued dialog and explanation of what is happening.
This one is good tells a lot others don't what to do and what not to🎉
Although I don't turn now I enjoy watching you and seeing the tricks of the trade, you seem to come up with an answer to any problem.
I’ve got one - I turned a deep crotch bowl and turned through the best, prettiest part of the ‘flame’. If I had it to do over, I’d have made it shallower to center and show the most interesting grain. I think I’ll be sawing away part of the bottom to begin with next time I turn a big crotch piece.
This video is super informative. Thanks for all the tips, sweet bowl as well 👍
After watching this, I turned a pedestal bowl with the curved bottom. Loved it.
Show abraço aqui do Brasil
Kent beautiful bowl, I’ve got some walnut crocks to turn. That’s for sharing.
Bellísima! Así de simple. Un abrazo
Germán, desde Lomas de Solymar, Uruguay
Gracias amablemente y feliz giro
Love it and the camo was special. I am getting ready to remove a wild cherry stump. I cut the parent tree years ago about 18 inches up. As resilient as they are it bounce back from the cutting, it spouted 4 or 5 towering trees around this parent stump. I will be cutting soon. Let me know if you are interested. Beautiful work you do!!
Sounds fun. Enjoy the process. Happy Turning!
That is just a stunning bowl Kent, and very well explained, thank you so much for sharing. Great help to us novice turners.
I really liked this video, especially the narration. It's so helpful to understand what you're doing, and *why* you're doing it! So many others don't have any narration or other info. This black cherry bowl turned out stunning.
I’m Learning all the time.
I love the intrigue left with the person viewing this piece. As if “How could you make a non round bowl on a lathe?” I love it, it is so beautiful especially the live edge. I am keen to learn more. I have been using an angle grinder to get similar shapes. Thanks so much for your valued teaching and inspiration.
Thank you, Nicholas! Never stop learning! Happy Turning!
It's a beauty Kent - nice job!
Always a learning experience for me when I watch your videos.
Nicely done piece Kent, great idea on the deep foot to sand back to level after drying…..I might have even made three legs! Stay safe and always enjoy.
Such a beautiful crouch bowl Kent. The grain is awesome and the colors are so beautiful. Great tip on burning the edge.
Thanks, Kent. This is a really nice-looking bowl. I really appreciated how much of this turning was in real-time instead of sped up for the sake of time. I have found that some of my wet pecan wood, I can bring the turned pieces into the house and, after a week or so of being in the A/C they dry fairly well.
I look for crotches but have not found as many as I would like. Would love to see some of those bowls in person - your neighbor just up the road.
Absolutely gorgeous Kent.
Beautiful piece, wonderful turning!
Beautiful bowl, marvellous skill. Thank you for a fascinating video.
My pleasure Evan. Happy Turning!
Looks great.
Beautiful work
I have used denatured alcohol to help dry the surface to make it sand able.
Nice bowl Kent. I can appreciate your advice about avoiding those thin, fluttering edges, having experienced the thrill 😮 of an “exploding pancake” while turning a platter.
Great bowl and great teaching how and why to turn the way you do. I have been turning bowls for about 6 months and your videos have helped me immensely. Thanks for sharing your experience and passion for turning 😊
What a beautiful bowl, thank you!
Outstanding work. 👏👏
I love how you explain wood turning. It is very informative. I just recently started turning. So far, i turned a candle stand from Elm and didn't realize how wet it was. 36%. It was a nice turn, but it started to split while drying. It wasn't finished but a good learning experience. The tree was dead for over a year and was blown down two months ago. I also turned a cup from eucalyptus root and turned out really good, as was about 6% wet. I had the root for over 10 years. It turned out good for a new turner. There is a big difference from wet to dry wood turning. I am learning a lot from you and other wood turners as well as hands-on turning. One of my future turnings will be a spruce Burrell. I do use a harbor freight lathe. Is not bad lathe but teaches how to set up and rotate for larger turnings.
Thanks for what you share as i learn a lot from what you do show.
Beautiful! Would love to see this one after it’s dry.
Very beautiful, Kent. I’ve got several pieces of cherry drying. It is a beautiful wood. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this really great video, I'm relatively new to turning and enjoyed watching and listening to your easy natural way of explaining the how what why of what you are doing. Hope to put some of it into practice soon. Thank you
I love your videos. Your videos are the most informative I've found anywhere. Do you have any recommendations for turning much smaller, deeper bowls, like for making cups? The tight quarters make it really hard to get inside the piece to make a well-defined and smooth finish.
Thanks Sean! See my latest video and consider removing some of the gouge heel to turn a tighter curve. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Your videos are pleasing to watch, also very educational. I don’t even own a lathe 😂. My first bowl was carved from a cherry crotch log.
I have a crotch blank sitting in my shop, and I will be using this technique for turning it. I am super excited to try it out.
Kent,yes, Mother nature is indeed incredible
Hey Kent--this is a good one. I always enjoy watching your videos even though I've been turning a very long time myself. So entertaining and informative. Sometime, like with much of this project, I get confirmation. I think 'yep, that's what I would have done.' Sometimes, too I get new inspiration. Like the idea of burning the edge of the rim that separated. I have fed our chiminea so many almost-finished natural edge bowls after losing part of the bark! Gonna try that! I have also, after losing part of the bark, broken it all off and completely torched the edge. So I still had the natural shape, but a completely burned rim instead of bark. That was a lot of work, though! warm regards, amy.
Beautiful bowl Kent. I especially liked the foot design. You have explained the process really well, enough for me to have the confidence to have a go at a couple of similar pieces of wood I was given. I don't even know what type of tree they are from, but I am sure they will yield something interesting. Thanks for all the help.
Glad you enjoyed it! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Wow! Amazing result! Last week I had made a similar bowl, from ash.
Very nice bud
That looks great! I recently used a small sycamore crotch to turn a spoon rest for my wife. I wasn’t able to keep the bark on, but I’m really happy with how it turned out regardless.
Hi Kent, from NZ. I've been teaching myself with the help of utube vids, and find yours great as you describe everything you're doing. I just turned a small cherry crotch which I nearly blew up, but managed to glue it back together with the addition of a little resin, and have a large chunky Totara crotch waiting in the wings. Hopefully it turns out as well as yours.
I have two maple and one ash crotch piece that I want to try out this design with. Looks like a fun challenge.
Kent, I just started watching this video and some time ago I addressed the bandsaw dust problem. Having tried to collect it in the box below, I found it was more effective to have a nozzle from my shop vac attached so it collects just below the table. It is tucked in up where the lower bearings are, sucking the dust as it comes through the plate. It's not perfect, but better than trying to get it from the box. In addition, as my hose goes into the nozzle but only the nozzle is locked into place, I easily pull off the hose and can vacuum the top and base in just a few seconds. If this isn't clear and you want a pic, let me know.
Tried a piece similar to this one but from apple not cherry. It moved and cracked significantly over time. I’m drying another piece to see if it turns out better. Hard wood apple with lots of built in tension. We’ll see
All the best to you, Elmer and Happy Turning!
Hi Kent, beautiful bowl. Thank you for your teaching. I have a few crotch pieces drying in the shop that i hope to turn in the distant future, God willing. I have some oak, walnut, and a piece I'm told is sweet gum so im not sure if that will make the cut. I wanted to ask about whether or not to let these pieces dry to my usual 12% before turning or is wetter better for these? And then splitting versus whole log turning crotch wood? What is the usual outcome of a split crotch bowl. I really like the look you ended up with this whole log crotch. I'm a new subscriber so I'll go thru your whole library eventually and ill probably find the answers for my questions sooner or later but I'm looking for instant gratification and I've never been known as a patient man. So directly to the source of the knowledge I seek. Thank you sir.
For many crotch sections there is a concave and convex face. Appreciate your point of view on best orientation for bowl turning. Should the convex face be the bottom?
I too love the live edge bowls great job thanks for the tips! Also are you attending AAW in Louisville in June? Would love to meet you...
Thanks. Yup. I’ll be there. Hope to see you.
I just picked up some Maple that was cut down about 3-4 weeks ago, with a crotch piece included in the truckload. Would Maple react the same as your Cherry when drying? Would the Danish oil work the same on Maple? I like to give a turned bowl back to those who keep my supply up, and think this would be a really cool bowl to give.
Kent, my cherry seems to always crack, check and self destruct as it dries... I stopped turning it green... might just be a PNW thing. Now I make blanks, anchor seal them and wait...
(14:23) Dear Kent, may I ask you, which type of sharping mashine are you using?
Yes, it's a slow speed grinder with 8" CBN wheels and the Oneway Wolverine Sharpening System. See my Recommended Gear section for all the details. www.TurnAWoodBowl.com/gear Happy Turning! Kent
Is there a reason why you didn't start with a smaller circle when you initially cut the blank . Wouldn't that save time when you are turning?
What size banjo works best for bowls? 0:03
With the scraps you removed on the bandsaw. Why couldn't you have cut a piece and glued it to the bare spot?
the wood burning system link doesn't work for me
Dont you love the feather? I just turned a piece of ash and got a pair of them
Fantastic! Well done!
