- I am thrilled with how this one "turned" out! I wanted to try something new with this one. Follow along and you too can have a shiny, smooth, Perfect little bowl!
Lots of end grain tearout and tool marks. Carbide is good for roughing, but traditional gouges and scrapers will give you a better product before sanding
Thanks for the feedback John! I currently don’t have a way to sharpen conventional tools so I don’t have them yet! I so want to try them though
Go take a look at Glenn and Lisa teagle on carbide and see how to use them properly 😊
Hi Kevin you need to take a look at the way you are using the bandsaw !! You are heading the right way for an accident 😮
@@jimgeelan5949 im glad you mentioned that. I got called out for this video then created a jig for safe circle cutting. Check it out
@@jimgeelan5949 I’ll have to take a look
Nice, for some reason to me has a Japanese feel to it, good for a couple of servings of Miso soup.
This is my most favorite bowl yet! I can’t wait for the next one , and I can confirm it’s great for hibiscus tea …. I ran out of oolong 😀
It looks great, I may need to try that finish.
That’s the best finish I’ve found yet; but unfortunately because I used the sanding sealer it’s not food grade
nice bowl. that bandsaw cutting scared me for 2 reasons...i cut with the flat side down since the material is safer against the table...and the blade guard needs lowered for safety.
It’s funny you mention that ! So I shot this video, then TH-camr “turn a wood bowl” comes out with 7 mistakes on the bandsaw the following day. I love his content, said shoot, he’s right I just broke two very important rules.
Then during edit, contemplated not even putting the beginning footage in but decided for it to be.
That being said , in the next month I’m going to be making a video creating a circle cutting jig for the bandsaw which will eliminate all the danger .
Totally agree after watching his video about the guide being too high
Thanks for the input and know that I will be altering my methods moving forward.
Also thanks for watching. It’s people like you that watch and engage, that keep me making content.
@kevindcreates yeah..love my circle jig..made it for free
@@kevindcreates at least you are authentic. It makes me want to watch videos when creators are honest.
@@JamesCouch777 This channel is all about the journey, no reason to not share it all. i made a mistake, got called on it. Was able to produce a safer means to use the band saw and my fingers thank me :D
thanks for watching James!
Very nice 👍. Finish is the hardest part for me. Good job 👏 the thunder in the background is good too 😊
Thanks for the kind words ! Haha yeah that was tropical storm Debbie
You’re clearly very skilled with carbide. I just can’t seem to enjoy turning with them. Great video.
Awe that’s too kind. I actually just started turning! I’m new on this wood journey ! And just picked up a cheap set of conventional tools from marketplace! I can’t wait to try them
Finish is nice. Only thing I’m confused on was why you were using a #3 hollower on an open bowl like that. Just curious.
That’s a great question and I’m assuming you are talking about the goose neck carbide cutter… because I’m New to the hobby I only have 5 turning tools, two of which are negative rake, this one has a very wide flat steel forearm, so it doesn’t try to twist out of my hand. I generally gravitate to this one for hollowing out anything ! Thanks for asking ! Do you have a channel too? I’d love to check it out 😀
Oh you’re a pen channel!!!! I love it !!! I got my setup from penn state industries
@@kevindcreates definitely understand the flat bottom part. Check out easy wood tools. All their carbides are squared so they have a flat bottom but yes the hollowers have a wider flat bottom. I’m a demonstrator for easy wood tools.
@@kevindcreates yes. I turn lots of things but more pens than others.
I meant to say what kind of wood did you use. Jim's wood shop
That one I believe is some species of Oak, my parents were cutting down the tree in their front yard. I snagged a few pieces. Great grain patterns make some great bowls !
Good job my friend 👍🇵🇹😁
Thanks Jose! Thanks for watching I hope you enjoy!
Nice bowl , what kind of do you have. I made some small bowls and sold them at our farmers market. It was fun and I just limbs I find on the ground. Jim's wood shop.
Do you have a channel Jim or a website? i'd love to check it out!
sounds like it's storming pretty hard there
It was , I thought I was gonna lose a limb above the roof !
What was that crash?
Great catch! And I even turned the audio down. That was tropical storm Debbie !
