I too like your narration with no background music for your wood turning. Adds a LOT of instruction value while the project moves along quickly. Thanks!
Something I did with super glue on a bowl. Before I applied the glue I got the bowl almost to where I wanted it and then applied two coats of sanding sealer. When I applied the black glue there was a lot less staining and much easier to finish. I was working on piece of Poplar. Good work! I learn from all you guys posting videos. Thanks
I really like your presentation!!! The voice over provides the info about what you were thinking and what is happening. I also appreciate your artistic viewpoint and agree with you 95% of the time. Keep up the great work and thank for all your effort to put out these videos!
Very nice work Peg. I really appreciate the voiceovers on your vids. I find knowing what you were thinking as you worked on a piece very helpful. You have given me great insights on my turning process, and many ideas for future projects. Thanks!
Once again a beautiful job on what did not have lot of promise but you turned out a good looking piece once more look forward to every item you put out and every video keep it up
Good evening Peggy. The wood looked like hard maple because it was nice and white. Regardless which maple, you did a great job turning it. I like the effect with the bark. I hope you get a new bandsaw blade soon as that would safe you time. Have a tremendous week.
Dramatic figure that you conjured out of that piece of maple! It’s a beautiful bowl with much character. Your voice overs and great camera angles are very helpful - perfect for any turner at every level. Thanks.
I love wood that is not perfect. Also I just saw a neat system for cutting the blanks on the band saw to a perfect round. There is a piece of plywood that has holes in it that match the radiuses that you want on your pieces. You drill a small hole in your piece and put a dowel in the hole. This goes into the proper hole on your plywood and you use the dowel as a pivot to turn the wood as you cut. Makes for a fairly true circle.
Beautiful Peggy, I love the live edge on the outside so glad you didn't turn it away it on very beautiful bowl thanks for sharing and your commentary is fantastic really helps when I go and try these things myself 👍👍👍
Love the result. The woodscrew chuck held up really well. You're so confident with that gouge despite the intermittent cut and the job hang on a thread, lots of skill going on.
your technique is very good, better than a lot of other turners online. I also would caution you about tools on the bed while turning, it scared me. will be subscribing to your channel.
Again a very fine bowl from you and the bark just makes it wonderfull. Personnaly I prefer to turn out of logs, because it gives a lot of options of which way to go. Keep up the good work :)
Beautiful large bowl. I hope you go back and remove more pith area wood from those blanks in the stack. You will have a lot less cracking if you do. Better to have slightly shallower blanks than cracked ones. The slabs you take off the pith side can be used for pens, handles and flat wood (quarter sawn) projects. And consider purchasing the brown Starbond glue. Very good product to have on hand. I find it now to be my go to glue choice.
Thanks. It's a Carter and Sons bowl gouge. There is a link in the video description where I got it. If you get it, let me know how you like it. I love mine.
Hello from Oklahoma, Just a quick question about your Laguna lathe. What do you like and dislike about it? Plan to upsize my Jet 1221VS soon. Many thanks!!👍🏻
Beautiful work. Please post the RPM of the various stages. With some parts being shown faster than real time and no mention of the RPM it makes is a challenge for new turners to learn
Thanks, Richard. I will keep that in mind. The first part of the turning was at about 250 RPMS, then, once semi-round, got it up to about 650, then about 1100 for the rest of the way.
@@PFWoodturning - I'm new at this. So the more information the better. I like to see how the recesses get made and attached to the chuck. My work usually comes flying off like spaceships.
I always get jealous when i hear people talk about have hardwood trees like maple around there. All I have where I live is oak and pine for the most part lol
During the rough turning, you kept two tools on the bed under the rotating blank. My preference is to never do that, as I fear they may bounce up, hit the rotating blank, and become harpoons with dangerous intentions.
Just wondering about drying wood, you mentioned about a year, would that hold true to maple Burl also, worried about crack, or should I rough turn it before drying, thanks for your thoughts!
HI there. The maple I have stacked in the beginning of the video has been drying (just like you see it) for a little over a year. I sealed the ends with anchorseal, which helps to prevent cracking. I am not sure that burl would be any different, but I'm not an expert on that either. Some people do rough turn green wood and them seal the roughed out bowl....personal preference I guess.
Nice work. Might I recommend you check out Stuart Batty's series of instructional videos on his 40/40 grind and turning technique (whole series of free videos on vimeo) Makes a huge difference in the ease of roughing those bowls not to mention the great finish surface it leaves without tear out. Takes a bit of practice (still working on it myself) but its night and day. Happy turning!
Thank you. I've watch Stuart's series (some anyway). Problem is that it is hard to "unlearn" something you've been doing. Personally, I would need to take a class in person with him to properly learn how to do it.
@@PFWoodturning I do believe Ashley Harwood uses the same techniques, if I recall correctly she spent a significant time training with him. Anyway, she teaches courses, which look pretty good. Incidentally, funny to see you're in scarborough, we live in Central MA but seriously considered moving up your way about a year ago. Beautiful area, and Holy Donuts!
@@dblehar Thanks, David. Yeah, Ashley was up this way to teach last year, but the class booked and I was on a long waiting list. Oh, Holy Donuts...just down the street from me!! :-))
That's what I like to see, turning "fire wood" I guess because that's what I do and it's exciting because you never know what you may find underneath the outside. One little tip I would like to give you about using CA glue to fill cracks, especially the black CA, is to put about 2 or 3 coats of sanding sealer around the crack before filling the crack with the CA. Any run off from the CA will be a lot easier to clean up because it will not be able to penetrate far into the wood surface but you will not be getting a lot of sanding sealer in the crack so the CA will be able to penetrate. In stead of epoxy and straight CA, I came across this last night that you may want to try being the artsy person you are ua-cam.com/video/g4qM7TKpWzk/v-deo.html
half way through the video , this is an advert for starbond and tools you get kickbacks from not a turning video right ??noe most of the way through and your selling some acks paste ??? isnt it a rule that you have to declare if this is an advert not a video ?????? last thing from you i watch this sucks .
Hi there. The starbond link is an affiliate link, yes. Which means if people CHOOSE to buy starbond through the link, I will get a small fee. Trust me, it's not breaking the bank. Buy or not buy, up to you. I believe in the product and would use it whether or not I was an affiliate.
Excessive number of tools. Lamenting lack of bandsaw. Excessive finishing products. These things do not help less experienced turners with fewer resources. I wonder for whose sake you make these videos.
Just found this tape. Beautiful idea. Love the bark n shape. Thank you.
Thanks very much ✌️
I too like your narration with no background music for your wood turning. Adds a LOT of instruction value while the project moves along quickly. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Again, I must say, beautiful, artistic pieces. I really enjoy watching your technique in these videos.
Thank you very much!

Wow absolutely stunning bowl Peggy great work. 👍😎👍✌️
Thanks very much!
Very cool Peggy. I love the contrast between the black and the maple. Gil
Thanks, Gil! :-)
Very impressive! Like the bark, natural look, nice job.
Thanks, Tommy!

Have a tremendous week.
Thanks, David! Got the blade, just need to install it--not my favorite thing to do!
I understand that. When I had my millwork, I had my shop foreman to that job.
Dramatic figure that you conjured out of that piece of maple! It’s a beautiful bowl with much character. Your voice overs
and great camera angles are very helpful - perfect for any turner at every level. Thanks.

Really pretty bowl! Nice job! 💜
Thanks!
Very nice. I like to see what can come out of a log. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Mark!
Very nice. I really like the bark on it.
Thanks!
I love it when I discover a beautiful bowl inside an old log, and you’ve achieved that too!
Right?! Thanks for watching!
Really love Maple. The bark is definitely a highlight of this bowl.
Thanks, Mark!
Pretty Bowl. The bark is a beautiful touch
Thanks much!
Very beautiful.....you are inspiring me to get off my duff and get back in the shop and turning! I really enjoy your channel.
Ha! Thank you! :-)
I love the look of that bowl. Nice choice of wood piece. Thanks for sharing

I loved all aspects of your video, with the only exception being the 'silent' periods of time in the video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback!
Great craftsmanship, really informative and inspirational for a novice like me.
Thanks for watching!
Another very nice bowl. As always a great video!
Thanks!
Nice job. I love watching. Wish I had access to wood like that.
Thanks 👍
thats a cool looking bowl, great job
Thanks!

Gorgeous bowl, Peggy...I love maple. The bark inclusions are so awesome!
Thanks, Carol!
love your work and this bowl!!
Thanks!
Nice bowl again!
Thanks, Harry!

Maple grain!! Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸
Thanks, Gary!
Amazing, chunk of wood to a beautiful bowl.
Thanks! Dixie Rd. wood...
Nice looking bowl. You do some awesome work.
Thanks, James!
Nice maple bowl Peggy.

Beautiful work, Peg.
Thanks, David.
I really appreciated the real time shot!
I'm just learning, still; seeing a section like that is a big help!
Great vid!
Cool, thanks!!
FYI if you will put a sanding sealer on those cracks BEFORE you apply the CA glue it will not stain the wood and it will sand off so much easier. 😜
Thanks!!
As always nice job.
Thank you!
Fantastic Work!!👏👏👏
Thanks!

Beautiful bowl Peggy! I love the patch of bark. I like the starbond black for cracks in spalted maple. It fixes the cracks and blends in quite nicely.
Thanks, Duane!
Looks good, Peggy, even if it was just an experiment. The grain is really nice.
Thanks!
Awesome!
Thank you!!!
Very nice bowl...
Thank you!
Beautiful Turn 👍🏿
Thanks, Victor!
Great looking bowl 👍
Thanks!
You turn some of the smoothest bowls. You barely have to sand (I know you said you don’t like to sand.)
Thank you!
Maple has such a wide range of colors. I wonder if that will darken with time? Great vid Peggy!!
Thanks very much!
Lovely piece Peggy. Noticed the timber still had some movement in it, came out great though.
Yes, a little bit. Thanks for watching!
Your chisel looks good. Can you tell me where you buy it ?
Thanks. It's a Carter and Sons bowl gouge. There is a link in the video description where I got it. If you get it, let me know how you like it. I love mine.

I always get jealous when i hear people talk about have hardwood trees like maple around there. All I have where I live is oak and pine for the most part lol
Yeah, lots of maple and pine here. (the Pine Tree State).
What percentage was the moisture content? What percentage to you like to see before turning?
This was around 12%. I like to see under 13%.
nice job
Thanks much!

Real nice work on the bowl. I like the bark that you left on it. Without the super glue inside of it you would have had a fantastic chili bowl.
