I love the concept of learning this cause how so much I thought was dry(after turning slightly wet deep in) cracked months later and I know a lot is natural yearly moisture stress but I trust us cause I even tell ppl you're my teacher, you n capp'n eddy, and taught me all I know about 4 or 5 yrs ago!!! Tks!
Thanks Shawn . What a great video. I’ve missed your videos, didn’t really know that you were still making them. I’ve always learnt heaps from you since I started turning in earnest when I retired 6 years ago. Please keep making videos as you are certainly one of the best instructors on design in turningespecially for batching out product. Your instruction for technique is also terrific, easy to listen too with heaps of pearls of wisdom.
It's been a minute since I've seen one of your videos. Always great to get a refresher on previous topics and see the slight evolution of your process towards perfection. Gives me the itch to dust off my chainsaw and go find something nice in the woods. Thanks
Great video, Shawn. Lots and lots of useful tips. I have 2 points that I don't quite understand, and I hope you'll educate me. 1) The grain is lined up in all dimensions, and the sapwood is not destroyed by bugs and fungus, why would you want to remove the sapwood from the bowl? 2) At what point does green wood become dry wood? I would have thought that after being cut for 22 (?) months the logs would have been dry.
G’day Shawn, thanks for your time and great teaching. Always so many pearls in your videos. Can you discuss the sanding pad you were using here, please? Really like the round bottom and wobble of this piece 😊
Nice video, great detailed thoughts as you went along. It is clear that you have to sand at a lower speed than when you turn. Is there a rule for how much to slow down? And what is the rationale for slowing down? Why is it better to sand at a slower speed?
Shawn, the light on your lathe, is it magnetic as it doesn’t seem to vibrate ar all. I’m looking for a lathe light that’s not too expensive and good light with maneuverability
I noticed you using a double ended / 2 sided round sanding disk holder. I tried to find it in one of your videos but no luck. What is it made of? Is their a video?
Re sanding in reverse - I didn't notice that you locked the chuck on the spindle (did you?). It's not fun when the chuck unscrews itself off the spindle and drops off onto your foot. But here, the tailstock should retain the chuck & bowl on the spindle for the outside, but you can't use it on the inside sanding.
I have missed your instructional turning videos like this. You are so practical and real.

I learn something every time I watch. Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see this kind of video from you again! 👍
Enjoyed your video. Watched quite a few of yours before I started turning. Appreciate all your tips.
Who else was distracted by the deer in the background at the beginning? LOL
Great video, Shawn!
not deer, Chupacabra
@@wortheffort LOL
AND I always thought that Chuck/ center point thing would be awesome, man you killing it already on teaching with this one sensei... tks 4 sharing

Dental tools work great for digging out worm holes and tracks.
Shawn, I am not a turner and was amazed you were able to make such a pretty bowl out of such a poor quality log.

Would you ever do wooden cups?

What is the sanding paddle thing you use.
When you do bark included natural edge bowls do you twice turn them or just once turn them?
once
Do you turn it once, let it dry/warp and then go back and true up the foot or how to you compensate for the wood movement and the bowl sitting flat?
@@Casey.Wilson the bottom is round in this video'
Why did your lathe stop spinning when you were turning the bowl?
how about soaking this unstable wood with epoxy and then wipe it off ?
Voice cut out when you started talking about cracks
I bet if your dad had a nickel for every good idea...
