Is it the all the sweet tools, the quick pace edit, or the fine bowl that makes this video so good? I've watched it about a half dozen times over the last few months and still pull it back up to watch again. Well done sir!
There's a lot of replies about the amount of tools used and thinking the title was misleading. I think it's a given with any wood project, you're going to need a saw, sander, and probably a drill. With this one, he just happened to use tools that made it easier than doing it by hand. What really surprises me is no one mentioned how much of the wood was wasted. I would kick myself if I wasted that much wood! Proper planning and measuring would have left enough wood for another project. Other than that, the video was good and well explained. The end product was very nice! Bowl, tray, we don't care. She can call it what ever she wants to, right?
Not ONLY are you're video's extremely informative and enlightening, but the combination of Texas Instruments "Speak and Spell" is so cool please DON'T stop making videos. It's like a hands on version of "How it's Made" on The Learning Channel !!!
Well 2 years later I still haven't opened my CMT kit. Yours is a beautiful bo-ray. I'm starting on mine next week. Your video certainly has a lot of tips that will be helpful. Thanks
I know I am late to see you. I enjoyed seeing how the design work. I am back to wood in the rest of my life. As a child I was into wood, but later a computer business, now using a lathe. I have nothing to do, so lathe work is my first bowl. Thanks!
to all of the people complaining about the extra tools.... what do you want?? a miracle? this is just a demonstration of the most critical part of the bowl being cut with a router.
It would lead you to think there are droves of people that went to the hardware store and bought a router and a bowl cutting bit without owning any other tools
Rather than whine because you used more than one tool, I'll say thanks for the video. I've been thinking about getting a bowl bit for my router and your bowl/tray turned out awesome. I can probably crank a few out by Christmas.
Beautiful bowl! Love the inset. I know you said not to say it, but come on man! Not just a router. A table saw, band saw, router table, drill press, planer and table sander... Most people do not have the space or the funds to gather this equipment. Thanks for the content!
Hi, 1st time visitor. Man I read some of the comments here, tough room, C'mon guys be nice! I'm a woodworker and a musician so the music sounds great in my headphones and the video was inspiring! Enjoyed your video and it makes me want to make some of these trays (or bowls) I make some furniture and lots of smaller boxes, but could use a change of pace for sure. Maybe I'll get the router bit and give it a try. Thanks!
Glad you're back. We did something like this but not as nice, in cub scouts. Back then that router scared the crap out of me and I thought I'd never use one again, little did I know.
This popped up under "woodworking" very good instructional video. Easy to follow and not a lot of extraneous chatter and no product endorsements. Very nice, and great tips, thanks!
I like the way you edited the video. thanks for sharing this project, I don't have all the tools to do it, but i'll try it in the future. Cheers from Argentina!
That is a beautiful piece you made ! I am not very good at wood working but the more I watch of your videos the more I want to try more . Thanks for the great videos keep up the great work .
Great video Brian! Good to see you're back. The bowl looks really nice. A little extra work for the stripe adds so much to the finished look. I've added this to my to do list.
It's good to see you again. Life happens and sometime we aren't always able to keep up with our hobbies as much as we'd like. Thanks for the fun and simple project.
Nice! i am just getting interested in small woodworking projects and just watching your video made me realize how grossly unprepared I am for something seemingly simple as a bowl. You have a lot of nice tools. Wish I had the space and money for a similar set of stuff!
The finished bowl looked great and the techniques used to make were good. I just have issue with the title of the video. You actually made the bowl using almost every items in your shop, most of which out of reach in cost of your average John Doe woodworker.
@D you've missed the point but no doubt that was intentional. Making someone feel cheap makes you the bigger person ... we don't think. Get some self worth
@D I understood that. However, the vid title implied that a router only was needed. The op was correct in saying that the vid utilises numerous workshop tools which are likely outside the requirements of most dyers. You then advise just two tools needed. Not correct. The op was right and your comment imho a little snide.
@@maggiehemming7904 It only seems that way if you are completely unfamiliar with how wooden bowls are usually made, and that would be with a lathe. The title simple serves to differentiate this technique from the norm....i.e. using a lathe.
Sounds like so many people have no idea what it takes to do woodworking. Very few projects can be done with one simple tool. I expected you to use most of what you did. Guess I may be one of the few who has made stuff and know what it takes. Good looking bowl-tray.
THis is some amazing work. I don't think "with a router" does it justice as a title. I'd like to see some recognition that you've got a really A1 setup there, so i don't get my hopes up so easily that i can just DIY this.
i hope you see the funny and honest side to the comments in here, they are hilarious. I've watched the vid a couple of times over the last few years and shared it. It's like - i'm going to put some new wheels on my corvet, but first i'm going to build it completely from scratch in my amazing shop. your shop in amazing by the way.
Nice work. Even when the title is not really exactly and so on.... you'v made a nice video with brilliant ideas - for me - . Thanks a lot. Go on like that.
I’ve never seen so many winery comments. He used a router to make bowl. So what if he used other tools as well. He didn’t have to, but he has the tools so he used them. You could watch other videos on how to make block of wood without his tools, and how to remove the bulk of the material without a drill press, the important tips came from him showing how to use a bowl bit and a guide to get a nice bowl cavity. I liked the tip of leaving extra wood around the edge for added support, and how you can use the edge left by the first router pass to create a nice guide for the subsequent passes to get it to depth. You could do all this with a saw, had planes, and chisels if you needed to, but the router is what makes getting a nice smooth regular surface so much easier.
Great to see you back, Brian! I love your bowl. I made my own (also with a router) last year but I wish I'd thought of drilling the bulk of the waste. ;-)
I really admire the way u make anyone even like someone like me understand how do things which are beautiful I would love to make something like this one day quick question could u give me some tips in coming weeks as a beginner to wood work what steps I would need to start and type of tools needed
Nice job! I noticed when cutting pressure is applied to the band saw blade it moves a good distance before contacting the rear bearing. I'm sure it is not a big problem because your bow-ray-ish is very pretty. A coincidence I saw your video today because I just ordered the CMT router bowl kit this morning. Doc Mebane, NC
I read the comments about the music and wondered what music? As for the trolls and carpers out there, give them each a log and a router and see if they can duplicate your project on youtube. Nice project! Put a fancy raised panel lid on it using a router.
Brian, like all the others I missed your videos a lot. Great you're back. I was very surprised to hear you were in Germany. Next time you should come to my shop for an abroad episode :-) I know it's silly but after a very long and exhausting day at work with serious blabla I just can't resist: 0:19 "My balls can be about six inches wide ..." I'm so Year 8 sometimes.
For a lot of the tools I use see: www.garagewoodworks.com/GW-azn.php
Woodshop was one of my favorite classes. Seeing your planar brings tears to my eyes.

Good video. No goofing off and talk talk talk like many of the others. Right to each point. Thanks!
Nice bowl/tray. I really like the way you edit your videos. You don't clutter them with too much narrative. Hope to see many more.

That bowl is absolutely gorgeous.

I’m really tired of explaining this, but I’ll do it one last time. Bowls are traditionally made using a lathe, not router; hence: with a router.
Glad to see you back Brian. You have been missed. The bowl is really nice and offsetting the maple strip was a great design idea.
Fellow ODU Grad!!! I love your videos. Thank you for posting your tips and tricks.

Well done. Good to see you back in the shop. Welcome back!
Really beautiful final product!
Another excellent project. Also glad to see you back on here producing more videos.
Very interesting video and project, I liked everything about it,the editing, music,subject matter, simple but nice looking bowl.

Great video, quick to the point but still informative. This is the first time I’ve seen your channel, won’t be the last.
Great to see you back. Nice bowl/tray, the maple makes a really nice accent to the darker walnut.
Sounds like so many people have no idea what it takes to do woodworking. Very few projects can be done with one simple tool. I expected you to use most of what you did. Guess I may be one of the few who has made stuff and know what it takes. Good looking bowl-tray.
Thank you. The comments I've received on this video have been very entertaining and sometimes mentally exhausting.
GarageWoodworks The public can be difficult to understand at times. Keep the faith and your spirits up. Good luck and keep the videos coming.
Looks like you got your HD camera. Glad to see you're back.

Great little segment, I enjoy your talent you have a lot to share. Thanks, Bob
+Robert Brennan Thank you!
Very cool and answered a few questions like how you cut out pockets where there is no support for the router so thanks for that.
Congratulations very nice work, you have good power tools. Greetings from Guayaquil Ecuador
what an amazing video dude.
intense skill level, such a pleasure to watch and the finished article is 10/10.
Thank you! I like your style of video editing/teaching!
Nice work. Even when the title is not really exactly and so on.... you'v made a nice video with brilliant ideas - for me - . Thanks a lot. Go on like that.
+Bob Craen The title is accurate. Most bowls are made with a lathe. This one used a router.

I love your bowl. I made my own (also with a router) last year but I wish I'd thought of drilling the bulk of the waste. ;-)
Not sure why there are so many negative comments. The most important part was completed with the hand router.
Good work!
I think the vast majority of the negative comments are from kids that have never used a power tool.
@@GarageWoodworksadults with small minds
Glad to see you again brian. anticipating the new videos!
I have been missing your vids also. Glad to see you back.
Glad you're back. Great project.
great job Brian, whether it's a bowl or a tray, it still looks great
Great video! Very informative and makes me want to make some of these trays for a project.
Great video Brian. Now I will be looking for a bowl bit for my router.
Great video for sure!
Laney, When are you going to start making videos again?
I really enjoy watching your videos
You have an awesome little shop. I cant wait to get a bandsaw like that
I really admire the way u make anyone even like someone like me understand how do things which are beautiful I would love to make something like this one day quick question could u give me some tips in coming weeks as a beginner to wood work what steps I would need to start and type of tools needed
Great job! Nice use of the drill press to remove the waste.
Just ordered myself a bowl router bit. Great video.
Awesome! It's a lot of fun. Thank you.
Glad to see your back.
Wow. Bowl looks so beautiful.
Thank you.
THX. The best router bowl how-to yet.
Great work man!!! I am still missing a band saw. Just have no space for it in my small workshop... Keep up good work.
Just what I was looking for to work out my workflow. Thanks
Well done!! time and effort to create a thing of beauty. your an artist my friend .. thanks.
Your equipments work by itself
Very nice, glad to see you are back.
Nice job! I noticed when cutting pressure is applied to the band saw blade it moves a good distance before contacting the rear bearing. I'm sure it is not a big problem because your bow-ray-ish is very pretty. A coincidence I saw your video today because I just ordered the CMT router bowl kit this morning.

William Branham Hey! You live near where I get my lumber. The Hardwood Store.
Great video. This is exactly what is was looking for regarding a similar project.
And ur music is great takes me back to high school days.
I have a funny feeling your crack pipe collection is as amazing as your tool collection.
Thank you. I would like to see more router stuff. It looks like a pretty versatile tool.
Great! Concise Teaching & Good Clean Video Production
Beautiful work. Would kill for a work shop like that! And that belt sander is noice!
Great video. Nice job on the bowl.....it looks great
Nice job it turned out really good
Cheers
Tim from Wood 4 Nothing
Glad to see that your're back. Love your videos.
Pretty advanced techniques for a novice like me. However, the workmanship was great. Thanks sharing.
Ah, nice! Another woodworker to follow on UA-cam.
I am always surprised how many people are willing to risk their fingers, but don't use a cnc. But yeah, the bowl is awesome!
If you know your tools, the risk is low.
Henner Zeller definitely agree on knowing tools. The other part of the equation is knowing which tool is the right tool for the job.
I read the comments about the music and wondered what music? As for the trolls and carpers out there, give them each a log and a router and see if they can duplicate your project on youtube.
Nice project! Put a fancy raised panel lid on it using a router.
I'm good with hand planes and have a few also. Thanks for the reply. Most appreciated!
Very helpful & easy to follow. Thank you.
Brian, like all the others I missed your videos a lot. Great you're back. I was very surprised to hear you were in Germany. Next time you should come to my shop for an abroad episode :-)

Great job sir! Inspired me to try something along the same lines.
Cool project. The. Contrast. Of Walnut and. Maple. Always. Looks. Great. Together.

Loved the video, can't wait to have a shed setup like yours!
Very pretty finished product.
Glad your back. Nice project!
glad to see your back....... nice bowl
awesome bowl and awesome workshop as well!
Great video, and a good pace also. Thank you
awesome. Love the 2 different pieces of wood. Came out great.
Nice bowl. You make it look so easy.
Love your videos, great to have you back!
was about to use a stoke sander for a shallower version. using a forstner bit is an excellent idea. thanks
