I love how you make thing so clear and easy to understand. And you do in a respectful way. I have heard that covering a log or green wood in sawdust will help a lot to keep it from cracking.
I have been slow to using the skew. Last time I used it I got a horrible catch and destroyed a turning. But, I realize practice makes perfect.
practice and use scrap wood or a limb.
Thanks for the advice, I really like your method of instruction. I'm relatively new at woodturning and you make it easier to understand. Thanks again.
Glad to help
Thanks a lot. You showed what i am doing wrong. So now i can go practicing again :-)
Glat to help good luck!
Thanks Dean. Tim
Very welcome
Excellent video Dean. Thanks
Thanks Bob, Glad you enjoyed it
Very nice vid easy to understand really enjoyed watching
Thank you!!
Thank you for the instruction. As a novice I appreciate it.
Glad it was helpful!
Very good explanation.
Thanks, and thanks for watching!!!
Great description. I’m sure it will help.
Thanks and Thanks for Watching!!!
Very helpful. Richard Raffan also has some good skew videos up.
Thanks
Well done. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I don’t own a roughing gouge I use my Carter & Sons skew for peeling cuts as well as a square carbide (yeah I know) to get my wood to size. Great video.
It works right, Thanks for Watching!!!
This is one of the very best skew tutorials I have ever watched. Thanks again Dean
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for Watching!!!
When I first started turning, the skew was exiled to the remote corner of the shop. Now, Ive started to learn it. I appreciate your approach. Thanks for pointing out the problems associated with thin skews and vibration. That answered some pressing questions. I've got a thicker skew on order now.
Glad it helped
You did an excellent job of teaching us the basics. Now we just have to practice. Just like welding, it takes a lot of practice. Thank you so much for your sharing with us.
you are so welcome, Thanks for Watching!!!
Thank You Dean…..I have applied your practice method to some old dry copper beech here in England……my ability is improving though my language is not when the point catches. I am just getting into your videos, so much I’ve not been making any on my own channel for some months. Turning is new and exciting (even to a retired nurseryman) whereas growing trees feels boring now. Your view in practice is very good advice. Many thanks and best wishes…..Malcolm (Plantsmans. Corner)
More good info Dean. The other piece of advice that most new skew users might need is that the skew itself needs to be scary sharp. It’s amazing how much difference that one thing makes. Thanks for doing this Dean.
Very true, Thanks for Watching!!!
Thank a ton, skew are bane of my turning existence. VERY new turner friendly instruction
Welcome to the world of turning and thanks for watching!!!
VERY, VERY, helpful Dean! Thanks. I think I learned more thanks to this video than mucking around for hours not really understanding the little details you highlighted so well. Take care.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for Watching!!!
Wow! Thank you. It was all helpful, but probably the most helpful tidbit I gleaned was lining up the bevel for the end cut. Being UA-cam and self taught, I had been going straight in and as you pointed out my cut had been walking in the direction of the bevel. I love using the skew, but I just can't always get the cut I want with it. You have helped. Again, thank you.
Glad it was helpful.
Really helpful video, appreciate how you break the steps down and reminder to practice. One of the best videos on using a skew that I've viewed.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it!!!
A friend told me once that the only good use for an oval skew is to plant bulbs in the garden. Thanks for the video 👍
lol he could be right, Thanks for Watching!!
Thanks so much for all the info. I haven't bought a skew yet, so I now have a better idea of what to look for when I do. This is most helpful.
You are so welcome!
Dean, you’re an awesome teacher! 👍👍👌👌👏👏👏👏
Bravo Dean!!
Wow, thanks thanks Roy!!
Brilliant
Thanks
Dean, Thanks for this lesson, actually I am one of your followers who is at awe watching the Christmas ornaments videos. I chucked up a piece of junk wood, then went to your channel to look for skew instructions. Raining today so down to the shop to try these techniques. Thanks
That is awesome! Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for the vise
Your so welcome Steve!! lol
Yes, the skew is a very good tool and yes, it is tough tool to learn. You have given a very good over view on it's use. Your best tip is to practice, practice, practice. When demonstrating the diamond hone you said if you do it correctly you would never have to "sharpen again". I think you meant to say you would never have to "grind again". The use of the diamond hone is sharpening. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
Very True
Thank you
You're welcome
Very good video from a very good teacher. You made so many Great Points on using the skew so I want to comment on only one and that was when you used the diamond hone. When we sharpen on a grinder we have a round stone that will make a concave grind on each side of the skew, so when the skew gets dull all we have to do is like you did and take a stone of your choice and hone each side and like you said keep that stone on the cutting edge and the back edge and you can have a sharp tool. I know you covered this but there are a lot of people that think you have to grind again. Keep teaching and thanks for sharing
Thanks
Very informative not as scary as a new turner to use the skew.
Thanks Dean I learned alot from you on the skew . I enjoy your videos
Glad to hear it
Good morning Dean. I have been scared of the scew because I have not learned the proper way to hold and move the tool. Thank you for the lesson. I listen to the training videos while I work at my desk. Have a great day.👍
Glad to help, Thanks for Watching!!!
Love your teaching style, thank you for sharing your knowledge and time.
You are very welcome
Dean, at about 15:30 you recommend learning to round off with either hand and I can't agree any more strongly. It always surprises me how few turners work with either hand because there are always times it's easier to reach a spot with the other hand. I've worked with both hands for many years. Taught my grandson to throw with either and kick a ball with either left or right. It is only a matter of practice. I've also found that learning to do something on my off side often improves my work on my usual side because it forces me to be aware of my motions as I transition. Great tip, even if just an aside to the skew lesson.
you and I see that the same why limit yourself.
Thanks for Watching!!!
Very helpful, sir! I've been turning for a few years, but I've never used my big Jimmy Clewes skew for more than about .25 seconds because that's how long it takes for me to get a profound catch. I think this is just the comforting instruction I need to try again. Thanks, Dean!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Dean. Thanks for thr video on the skew. I like the way you describe what you are doing. Love your teaching style. I ave learned lots from your videos. Thanks again
You are very welcome
I'm just watching this video in June because I just bought a new Henry Taylor rounded edge skew. My old skew was ok for a peeling cut but i could never make a planing cut with it. My first try with this new skew was much better. I'm going to have to practice with it more, but at least I can't blame the tool any more. I'll be practicing. Enjoyed the video, stay safe!
Have fun Jack and stay safe, Thanks for Watching!!!
I just ran across your videos today and have been watching for a couple of hours. I really like the way you explain what you’re doing. Thanks for making these videos.
Awesome, thank you!
great instruction on the skew - much appreciated!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Dean you answered all of my skew questions and even the ones I didn’t know that they needed to be ask. Your amazing.
Glad I could help John, Thanks for Watching!!!
Thank you Dean, worth a second viewing to capture all the great tips. A hefty, sharp, rectangular shaft seems ideal, getting one will help reduce the issues I’m experiencing along with the practice.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for the instruction. Can you tell me what the height of the rest should be relative to the center of the workpiece and at what point , relative to the center of the workpiece, the cut commences, please?
Great video Dean. awesome demo. Could you do a demo for a bowl gouge? Thanks
Thanks Robert yes I plan to do demos on each of the tools this year thanks for watching!!!
Dean that would be great
Great skew lesson and I really need it ! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great lesson .Dean.
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video Dean. Answered so many questions I had. Thanks
Glad to help!
Great video. Very informative video. I am looking forward to being able to get back in my garage again and trying these techniques. Thank you for the work you put into these videos
My Pleasure, Thanks for Watching!!!
Brilliant video very clear instructions please can you tell me what grit diamond stone do you use to sharpen your skew?
600/1200
Very informative as always,Dean. Thankyou for all your efforts.
Thanks, My pleasure!
Great video Dean nice job
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks very helpful, appreciate your instructions! Stay well.
Thanks, you too!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
My pleasure! Thanks for Watching!!!
Great demo and info Dean. Love using the skew and can definitely see how regular practice benefits.
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Dean, great video yet again and thank you. Just a couple of questions for you please
1. What rpm is your lathe while you use the skew?
2. do you have the tool rest on, just below or just above centre?
Many thanks.
1. I don't know I don't have a read out and pay very little attention to speed, sorry
2. I suggest the the tool rest be above center.
Thanks for Watching!!!
Très bonne vidéo Dean’s merci c’est instructif top 👍👏👋
Thank you Denis Thanks for Watching!!!
One question are you saying 30 degrees included or 30 each side. As always great information. Thank you for showing your talents
Thats the included angle. Thanks for Watching!!!
A lot of great information Dean. How do you have your tool rest set as far as height goes when you are using your skew’s?
Scott normally I have it slightly above center when using the Skew. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for the information. I have that wood river skew, which it sounds like that might be part of the trouble I'm having. Do you have suggestions on brands? I have bought a Robert Sorby spindle gouge, are they an ok brand?
Oh just make big pen 🖊 or you could cut it into small pieces and you could serval pens 🖊 out of that block of wood 🪵 hope you like the Ideas 💡 now I'm going back to your video.
Great video. I looked for the Stuart Batty skew and was unable to locate. Do you know of a vendor? Thanks again for all your help

@@DeansWoodworking Thanks!!
Good video Dean. My first skew was an Sorby 3/4" oval. Wish I'd never bought it. Because of the oval design I can't hold it true on my sharpening jig (Wolverine). I bought some other non-oval skews and I'm able to sharpen them, but I'm losing the skew angle from heel to toe. I'm happy with my bevel angle, but now my heel to toe are almost straight across. Most turner videos show how to sharpen bowl gouge, roughing, etc. but not much detail on sharpening skews properly. I feel like I have the proper equipment (Wolverine, slow speed grinder, CBN wheels) but lack the knowledge to sharpen skews properly. Any advice would be welcomed and appreciated.
it sounds like you have a long handle on the skew remember to hold it way off to one side when sharpening. That will put the skew back in the skew. Thanks for Watching!!!
@@DeansWoodworking Thanks Dean! I figured my technique was WAY off, I'll get the skew back in the skew! :)
no problem glad to help.
Hey Dean, what diamond grip do you hone the skew chisel?
The one I use is 600 grit.
I think you meant Stuart, right?
I disagree with you about the 1/4 inch skew. On the 1 inch skew, you are meant to cut with the lower part of the edge, so the tool remains supported below the cut, with no twisting forces. The 1/4 inch skew lets you cut with any part of the edge with no more twisting forces than on the 1 inch tool. The wood can't tell how wide the tool is, just how much of the edge is cutting. Try it, it is incredibly forgiving! No idea why you say it has a small sweet spot.
Helpful info but you should use the skew to cut your nails dude.
Thats rude but Thanks for the tip
