Walnut Bowls And Thunderstorms Don't Mix

  • I got a weathered and split piece of walnut from a friend. Walnut is too good to pass up, even if it has splits through it. So I'm going to turn this log into a bowl. Even if it kills both of us.

    I like the cracks; gives the bowl some unique character. And once again, you took a piece of wood that I would've tossed into the barn stove and turned it into something beautiful.

    One of these days I hope to have half the talent you have for turning bowls. I have been watching your videos, and relaying on a shop class I took 35 to 40 years ago. I am getting ready to get out and make the chips fly. I think I will catch on soon, because we both have the same style of safety toed sandels LOL this bowl turn out real nice.

    • @RickTurnsWoodturning

  • @colerobinson4507
    @colerobinson4507 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Such a beautiful piece. I watch a lot of wood turning videos and each time they inspire me more and more to start this as my own hobby. I love trades and working with my hands. I was one of those kids who were always building car models or any kind of model and always playing with LEGO.
    My only carpentry experience is building and installing custom wood stairs. So I don’t have any experience with a lathe, is there any tips you or anyone else could give someone like myself?

    • @RickTurnsWoodturning
      @RickTurnsWoodturning  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's actually not that hard, and doesn't have to be tremendously expensive. I believe Mike Waldt's channel has around a dozen videos directly aimed at the beginning woodturner. Here's a link to the first of them: th-cam.com/video/S8KrtPQfXQ0/w-d-xo.html
      I watch Mike's videos a lot, and have learned a lot from them. You might also want to check out WyomingWoodturner channel (Sam Angelo) - he has a lot of very good videos that focus on the basics. Thanks for watching, Cole.

      I didn’t even think about what I was wearing when I shot this video, and it wasn’t until after I published it that I noticed I was wearing my sandals. Since then, I’ve been more careful to wear appropriate footwear while shooting my turning videos. Thanks for all your comments, superjanc.

    Why use the scraper to hollow out the bowl? I'm a total novice, trying to learn as much as I can!

    • @RickTurnsWoodturning
      @RickTurnsWoodturning  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, Joe. When I'm shooting video, I use a scraper because it doesn't obscure the bowl interior and cutting edge. When I'm not shooting video, I use a bowl gouge, because it doesn't tear the grain as much as a scraper. The scraper is generally easier to use when hollowing bowls, though.
