  • I use free wood to make a beautiful bowl. I get curved sides on a bowl from a board. Most have straight sides. I have a trick to make this happen.
    Even though the wood was not the best the bowl really turned out nice.
    I used Acks Sanding Paste and Polish Restoring Paste for the finish.
    How I use abrasive paste and polish:
    • Five Minute Finish for...
    Tools used: Sorby Bowl Gouges and a negative rake scraper

    Awesome bowl! I here from Billy Burt (The Messy Studio), he did his version of your bowl and sent me over from there. Glad he did! This "Board" Bowl gives me all kinds of ideas. Thanks again! 👍👍✌️

      Thank you very much Gary. Billy's bowl came out nice. They are a lot of fun to do and I did a number of them recently just to show how I do them and the special cutting jigs I came up with.

    My friends call me 'cheap,' but I prefer the term 'frugal.' Free wood is a bonus for sure. To make a bowl from a free board is the epitome of being frugal. Nice job, Gary! I'll have to try your sanding slurry method for filling cracks. I'll bet it may also work for filling tear-out on end-grain spalted alder, which is my most difficult finishing job. Thanks for another interesting project video!

      Thank you Paul, I am considered cheap by some myself. Maybe it is the fact I will spend an hour making something I could go buy for less than $1.00. But I just am not fond of going shopping LOL.
      I think the sanding method would work great for tear-out.

    The first bowl I ever turned was a bowl from a board. That was in the mid 1970's. I made my initial cuts with a sabre saw. The were very crude but the bowl turned well enough and I still have it. It was the only BFB I have ever made. A few years ago I attempted a BFB using the bandsaw but it was not successful and I gave up on it. Now using your technique and fixtures I am about to try again. Your piece from the shelf board is quite nice. It's a pretty piece of wood. Thank you for demonstrating how to put a little shape into the bowl. Also your method of filling and concealing small cracks is very interesting. That technique will be useful in the future. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  11 місяців тому

      I did a few with the bandsaw and just felt there had to be a better way.
      I still have a couple pieces of that Oak shelf to use for something.
      Take care,

    You're a bit harsh Gary, asking us to pick our favourite type of turning. I for one, find all of your turnings fascinating both to watch & to listen to. Your commentary, while different in its own rite, is very similar to Phil in that you both take us into your innermost thoughts & reasons for doing what you are doing & why. This applies to every single turning that you do. I love this bowl not only for its own individuality but also because you made it even though it had a lot of little cracks, cracks that you were able to show your 'magic treatment' on. Lovely bowl, lovely finish too so thanks for sharing. Stay safe & well in these still troublesome times. Don from South Aust.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  2 роки тому

      Thank you very much Don. My whole time working as a pattern maker I talk to myself about what my next steps would be. But I talked out loud. People thought I was nuts but that is how I figured things out. My wife had to get used to that after I retired and she would come out in the shop and ask who I was talking to.
      So that is more or less what I am doing now but I try to be clear about what I am saying and keep the language clean LOL. Just kidding on that part.
      Be safe as well my friend,

    Lots of great tips in this video, Gary! I love the slurry tip for filling small cracks. Easy enough to do and such a big difference! It's hard to beat free wood from a garage sale and turning it into a beautiful, good sized bowl. Great job, my friend, keep'em coming! 😊

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  2 роки тому

      Thank you Phil. The way the slurry filled all the open grain of the Oak was a real bonus. Sure did change the look.
      I love free stuff but have also found some very nice hardwood for a good price at garage sales as well. You will be seeing another garage sale find in an upcoming video as well. Hint....it is not made of wood!

    Gary, I am trying my darndest to make a bowl from a board but I can't seem to get past first base. My problem is first off is the board wobbling upon the first mount on the lathe. I have three blow ups and thought maybe you might have a suggestion. I watch you and actually others on the web simply hot glue a sacrificial plug to the board place it in the chuck and take only a couple of passes to flatten out the board true. I got so paranoid this last time I put a caliper on the plug and made sure it was the same thickness all around it was 2 1/4'x3/4" I planed the boards to 0.752" and worked hard to have a flat glue up 12"x12"x3/4". I cut it in a circle on the band saw then put it on the lathe and there was a 1/8" wobble from one side to the other when I checked it on the lathe. My trigonometry says that is one about a 1 degree off. Yet when I begin to try and flatten the board it is like bouncing a ball with the gouge and by the time I get it flat I am down to 0.560" and if I were to flatten the other side it would be even thinner. It is so thin it is useless to try and make rings for a bowl. I know talent or lack there of is a big part of the problem but how the hell do you set a flat board and get it to turn so true it only takes a couple of passes and certainly very little wood loss? If you have any suggestions at all I sure would appreciate them.
    Thanks

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  Рік тому

      Hi Mark, this might help. Make sure the board is flat that you are hot gluing the tenon on. If it is just a flat board it should be easy. But if it is some sort of a glue up then I will flatten on side on my disk sander and then mount it up and flatten the other side on the lathe. Then fasten the tenon on what will be the bottom. You should now have a flat board to cut rings from.
      If you want you can email me and it might be easier. You can find my email in my About Page.
      Let me know,

      I loved using the canted stave method. All the angles came from the full sized drawing I would make of the pattern and then just cut the angles to fit. Using a spoke shave or block plane to knock off the corners and you had the shape. I love that kind of stuff!
