That really clarified the technique for back hollowing to the point I'm willing to give it a go. My first tries won't be with any wood to which I'm emotionally attached for sure, but now I'm willing to try it. Thanks for the detailed, slow demonstrations -- super helpful.
You make your skew and gouge work look so easy, when a lot of wood turners steer clear of the skew. You are definitely skilled at what you do and are a good teacher.
Great demonstration and information Tomislav! I'm not a production turner but I use that technique on boxes, goblets, etc, and it works great. I like the way you explain and show how to do use the spindle gouge to back hollow. Take care, Dave
Very nicely demonstrated and explained! I saw your mentor, Richard Raffan, demonstrate this method several decades ago now. It took me a few scary attempts to master the technique. Very effective for end grain hollowing. Thanks for sharing your expertise. John
Another detailed video of another technique. I will store this one away and revisit it again when I feel I have mastered some of your previous video practices. Very clear and precise again as usual.
An excellent demonstration Tomislav well done, and congratulations on getting a 400 cup order this time. I hope you keep count of them like Richard does with his scoops.
Nice demo dear Tomislav. I do not need to fasten my production (not at that point yet) but will give it a try at some point, just for the technique gesture. Cheers!
why do you move the gouge up and down to hollow out the piece, rather than side to side? Isn't it better if the wood pushes your gouge down into the toolrest? Is it because you can put more pressure on the gouge?
Its called backhollowing cut, its much faster way of removing waste inside, you have to have bevel contact all the time otherwise it will catch ....but its the fastest method to hollow endgrain
This is *not* a technique to use on cross-grain bowls. This technique works when the grain of the workpiece is parallel with the axis of the lathe as in spindle turning. It would be dangerous to attempt this on a cross-grain bowl.
Thank you very much for watching and comment, I hollow around 3 inch the most , its usually great on smaller diameter work(endgrain work) , any deeper then 3 inch can be difficult as you are limited to the opening where you rest the gouge.
Thank you for the excellent detailed explanation. Thank you for sharing your experience and expertise. I am curious what your personal best time is for doing one of these cups. Especially given you did 4 in less than 12 minutes while doing an in depth explanation. Thank you!
Thank you Johnny, power of edit in this video so looks faster then it is, on previous batch it was 10min for one, the first from the blank. I get two glasses from one blank,but for two takes me now on this batch around 16min with finishing.... With each batch take down another minute as I find ways to speed up.☺️
Wonderful video, great technique and a nice shout out to Richard Raffan. BTW, what kind of finish are you using on these shot glasses? I'm learning a lot from your videos, thank you.
I thought the spindle gauges were bent flat metal and tools with a bevel hollowed form a solid cylinder is a bowl gauge. Have I had this wrong all the time? I've seen a similar method with a hook-shaped hollowing tool. It seemed fast and effective, but more dangerous as the hook was fairly thin so it didn't have the thick bevel this gauge has.
You're referring to a spindle *roughing* gouge which is used to rough the outside of a spindle. The gouge Tomislav is using is sometimes referred to as a *detail* spindle gouge.
Depents on what type of spindle gouge, there are regular spindle gouges, continental gouges, spindle roughing gouge and detail gouges.... ua-cam.com/video/wL_t-m95AhQ/v-deo.htmlsi=qQpeHu-CiIOe2iur this might help out 🤗

Glad to hear that,just practice and you'll start to see how it behaves and that is not that difficult, but it does need a bit of practice ☺️

Thank you very much
🕶Thank you Tomislav. Another great video.
Thank you Steven,glad you liked it
Dear Tomislav once again an impressive demonstration and exceptional explanations to improve this technique.
Thank you Alain ☺️

Take care, Dave
Glad to hear that Dave, appriciate for watching 🤗
Great timing, I've been asked by my son and future daughter-in-law to make something similar as wedding favours.
Awsome,glad to help out ☺️

Thank you John, I envy as you got the opportunity to watch him in person, hopefully one day I'll visit Australia☺️.
Great explanation. Thank you
Tomi, you have a great skill in this superb tutorial; thank you so much.
Thank you 😀
I tried to understand this when I saw it in one of Richard's books but I could never work it out. This made i really clear. Thanks.
Glad to help out ☺️

Thank you very much
Excellent...I will give this a "try" tomorrow. You make it look soooooo simple!!
Thank you, its just practice and repetetive work
Bonjour Tomislav. Voici un projet tentant à réaliser, avec toutes les explications qui permettront d'aboutir à ce final.Super.👍
Thanks for the clear explanation. I'm going to give this a shot instead of nibbling away with a tungsten carbide scraper, you make it look too easy.
Thank you very much, everything is faster then carbides😅
Wow, how quick. Great video tommi.
Thank you 🤗
An excellent demonstration Tomislav well done, and congratulations on getting a 400 cup order this time. I hope you keep count of them like Richard does with his scoops.
I sure will have excersize in counting😅... Thank you very much for watching
Great demonstration Tomislav.
Thank you Jack
Great examination on hollowing. Thank you!
Going to have to try this technique.
Try it, its awsome for fast removeing timber
Nice demo dear Tomislav. I do not need to fasten my production (not at that point yet) but will give it a try at some point, just for the technique gesture. Cheers!
Thank you Boris.... Glad to see you back on the lathe filming
Great demonstration again
Toujours un plaisir d'apprendre de vos vidéos!! Quel est le bois que vous uyilisez et où le trouvez-vous? merci
Thank you, this is black walnut, I got it in my local hardwood/lumber yard, bit expensive but that is what client wants 🤗

Quite a technique. How deep is it effective to in your opinion? Could you use it on say a bowel 3 inches deep? 4 inches deep?

Thank you very much, its odies oil, last batch I used claphams hemp oil, this time I have a jar of odies.... ☺️
Thanks again for the great tutorial. Is your drilled hole about 1/4 inch diameter?
Thank you for watching 😀
Drill bit is 8mm which is 5/16 I believe 🤔
I tried this with a scoop like Richard makes to say the least it is stressful just practice i guess scoop turned out ok though red oak
Its can be,but don't give up as its fun once you practice it....☺️
Excellent work as always 😉😉
Thank you

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning I think is exactly whatI need! Thank you.
Thanks very much!!
For me, I find if the wings are a bit elliptical it works better. The straighter wings, like from a jig, do not perform as well at least for me.
I agree, there has to be a little curve to the wings, thank you for watching
Extreamly fast method 👍
