Watching you makes me want to go turn the lathe on and get turning!!!! Thank You
Go for it! Happy Turning! ;)
Another wonderful video. Thought out this turning, how often did you return to sharpening station? I understand it is a feeling while cutting. I found a 25 lbs chunk of Live Oak in my garage and I think it is time to transform it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. I think three times total sharpening. The Live Oak can be beautiful and challenging at he same time. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Never mind sharpening, how often do you have to empty out those crocs?!?
LOL, pretty frequently. Probably about as often as sharpening. LOL Happy Turning!
Kent thanks for an excellent video. I also turn bowls and have picked some excellent pointers from your videos. I am concerned about your spraying lacquer at the end of this video. My concerns are twofold. First, you should show that you are wearing a respirator while spraying lacquer. Second, if you spray in your shop the lacquer will continue off-gassing in your shop even after it is dry to the touch. My preference is to spray outside, from the upwind direction and let my items dry outside for the rest of the day, before bringing them inside. Best regards, Joe.
Good points. Thank you!
Kent, outstanding job as always.
I know you said that you were showing us this this turning in real time but I was wondering how many times you had to step away to sharpen your chisels for this huge bowl. I’m very new to wood turning & follow only a two wood turners religiously. You & Ashley Harwood. I do watch others if recommend or if I see something of interest but you two are my main woodturners. I like that you teach as you turn & don’t blow through at the speed of light.
I’ve only turned two bowls at this point. Posted both on UA-cam hoping for some feedback + or - . All of my tools & even my lathe are second hand. Jet-1014 miscellaneous chisels not even a full set but just a handful.

Thanks Jason, I check out your channel. It's looking pretty good. I sharpened twice during that turning. Happy Turning!
Hey Kent,
Awesome video, great advice! You are an amazing teacher!
Happy New Year!
/Lars
Thank you and Happy New Year to you as well. Happy Turning!
Kent, great video. I really like that you explain everything you are doing. Keep up producing these great videos.
Thank you, I will. Happy Turning!
This would not be something I would even attempt until a lot of experience. That interrupted cutting just looks to dangerous! I will leave this to the master and do easy stuff once I rebuild my little 12 x 36 Delta lathe. I am thinking of getting a stronger motor on it, maybe even a variable drive. I heard of one guy using a used walking exercise machine motor. I saw another guy use wood risers even to increase the swing! I will have to make a lot of wood crafts spoons, small bowls, and small items for the home before I can buy a nice lathe like yours. Well, it will be fun trying! LOL
It sounds like you have a good goal! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Hi Kent. I was wondering where you’re located. I live in central Ontario about two hours north of Toronto. The Dutch elm disease went across Canada starting when I was a kid. I recall the city’s crews coming through Toronto cutting down the elms to try and stop the spread. Nowadays you can still see the odd living white elm but most are dead but standing. I actually purchased a live edge board last fall. It’s 2” thick so might be okay for a tray. My original plan was to make cheese boards. Have a good day. Tom
Tom, I'm in Florida. This wood is from Illinois. Not sure which elm species this one is. The tree diseases are very sad indeed. I was in Winnipeg a few years ago and they have an avenue filled with a tree they are proud of, it might have been the elms. Not sure. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I’m thinking of selling some bowls but I live in a very humid climate and I’m worried that it would crack when I send them off to people. Do you have a moisture level that you would recommend I get it to before I sell to reduce the risk of it cracking?
Yes, stable. The best way to determine is the moisture levels are stable is to weigh the bowl over time. Once the weigh stays the same for over a week, then the moisture is balanced out. Now, if the bowl moves to a drier climate it will continue to lose a bit more weight. This is usually fine. Wood is always changing and moisture is always present in all wood. Tip, use a postal scale and set it to grams for easy recording or bowl weight. Happy Turning!
I like the natural elm wood bowl. I have a wood bowl that my grandmother used to make biscuits an she passed away around 40 years ago an she used it back as far as I can remember an I'm almost 72.
Thank you for writing and sharing Jimmy! Those heirloom family items are quite special. Time to go turn a few and pass them along. ;) All the best to you and Happy Turning!
How much fumes if you spray this in the basement?? Wife has asthma and worried it will affect her. Thanks and great video!!
Great question. There are fumes. I do this at the edge of my shop with the large door open. I would not do this in a house especially if the air will be pulled into a AC/Heating system. Happy Turning!
You explain very well. I’m just starting with bowl turning, this is very informative. Thanks.
Happy new year.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you and Happy New Year to you!
Me too just starting turning and the videos are the greatest.
What is the brand of your Slow Speed Sharpening Station Grinder? The amazon link is hot helping.
Here, try this one amzn.to/3expW28 Happy Turning!
New turner here.. I have looked for the square device that you use to adjust the tool in the holder for sharpening. Where can I find these, and what are they called?
Hello and welcome Roberta,
That is a depth gauge and you can make one. I have plans for the build here turnawoodbowl.com/product/diy-bowl-gouge-depth-gauge/
Happy Turning!
Thanks for sharing,,what is the round washer on the spur drive?,,,,answered my question
Correct! It's for one of my chucks that doesn't seat all the way down. Happy Turning!
Really beautiful bowl man.nice work.
Thank you! Cheers!
Now I'm really impressed - you also write in russian! So maybe you'll be able to understand this in serbian as well:) - Srecna Nova godina od strane kolege drvotokara!
Sretan ljubitelj drva u Novoj godini.
I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. Thank you for sharing.
So nice of you to say Garth. Thank you! Happy Turning!
Wish you a wonderfull turning new year!!!! I love your work, you made me make so many progresses.... I don't know how to thank you. Because of you I use shelack, I take care of my tenons and that really that it works, I tried new things and you you gave me the solution for nice and easy bottoms.... Anyway you really helped me enjoy turn bowls and make them great. Thanks very much for what you do!!!!!
Awesome! Thank you for your kind words. That's exactly what I'm trying to do here and on my site www.TurnAWoodBowl.com I simply want to teach anyone interested how to turn the wood bowls they imagine. Thank you and I'm so happy of you! Happy Turning!
Great video. Always learn from them. Thanks again.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing! Happy Turning!
Great looking bowl 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent teaching of the basic skills in wood turning bowls
Glad you enjoyed it. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
You are a good teacher. Your reference to the flute as a clock position has helped me a lot. Also your explanation of supported grain cuts and the flexing of the outer edge as it turns. Thanks. Happy New Year
Wonderful! Glad this helped you. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
What an incredible presentation. Nothing else to say. I appreciate you explaining the tools you're using as you turn the bowl.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks and Happy Turning!
That’s a great “aha” moment to not finish the tenon until the exterior is shaped
Yes, at times it does make a difference. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Fantastic!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Kent. Would you normally use a coring tool to make more bowls?
I do use a coring system. New video on that coming up very soon. Stay tuned. Happy Turning!
I am new to turning and this tutorial was very informative and encouraging, thank you so much for your time too many videos go to fast.
Welcome in woodturning! watch all the other videos this guy does, everything he says is a good thing! peace!
Thank you! ;)
You are so welcome! Happy Turning!
Great video, bowl, and channel. Thanks!
Much appreciated! Thanks and Happy Turning!
Thanks for the inspiration! Your videos are great!
My pleasure, Steve! Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Absolutely stunning.........Right next vid!
Thank you! Cheers! Happy Turning!
Your elm looks a lot like butternut. Pretty grain.
Yes, beautiful grain. Thanks. Happy Turning!
Fantastic,100% full turn start too finish
Inspires me too try this
Paul
Another masterclass Kent, it was helpful seeing it in real time. Wondering out loud if you core bowls, and if so, your preferred system. Thanks for any info/advice.
Thank you Daniel. Yes, watch this ua-cam.com/video/EdfFWXHTEL8/v-deo.html Happy Turning!
I learn so much from you Mr. Kent. That turned out simply gorgeous!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you!
Best presentation I have seen on UA-cam. Excellent bowl too! Try Fuji HVLP spray system for the most precise results with minimal overspray.
Thank you!
Beautiful elm bowl. I cannot turn quite this large but I am definitely going to try the largest bowl that my lathe can handle.(16 inches).
Thank you. Go for it! Happy Turning!
Beautiful natural-edge bowl. I need to make one of these (wife's request). Interesting finishing technique. Have a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2021!
All the best to you too, Paul in 2021. Happy Turning!
Привет, Кент! С Новым годом! Красивая работа! Очень интересная! Но есть вопрос: - Мне показалось, что чаша начала терять форму и превращается в эллипс? Или это обман экрана? Hey, Kent! Happy New Year! Beautiful work! Very interesting! But there is a question: - It seemed to me that the bowl began to lose its shape and turn into an Ellipse? Or is it a screen trick?
Спасибо за ваши добрые слова. Чаша круглая, если смотреть сверху. Я думаю, вы видите оптическую иллюзию. Всего наилучшего и счастливого обращения!
Lovely bowl and great lesson!
Thank you! Cheers!
👍thanks Kent
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Great job Kent! Since I've started following you on here and completed both of your e courses I've come a long way. Thanks!
Great to hear! So glad the courses have helped you! Happy Turning!
Beautiful elm bowl.Great informative tuition .I have recently started turning bowls and have used your techniques ,thank you so much for sharing your talents .
You are very welcome! Happy Turning!
I especially appreciate your continued reminders to make supported grain cuts. This has helped me in my own turning to make much finer work. Great instruction, sir. Thanks.
You are so welcome! Thank you and Happy Turning!
Kent, the information you share in each video helps me be a better wood turner! There is an amazing amount of useful information in this video. I laughed out loud during the section where you were talking about your brother being a hound dog for finding wood!
Eileen, thank you. LOL, he really is. He's currently burning through wood to heat his home. I talked with him the other day and he had to tease me by saying, "the smell of black walnut in the fireplace is the best." LOL, I'd kill him if he burnt walnut and he knows it. LOL Happy Turning!
Wow, Kent!! You are an amazing wealth of turning knowledge! I will be watching all your clips!
The camera placement showing what you are seeing and looking for is incredibly helpful for people like me, who are just starting to scratch the surface of bowl turning.
Thank you for sharing your abilities with all of us!
Awesome, thank you! I'm so glad to hear these videos are helping you. That's the goal. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Absolutely awesome bowl and super instructive video. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you and Happy Turning!
As always a very helpful tutorial. The time and effort you put in is invaluable and the fact that you do not over edit or cut down makes what you do a genuine tutorial that provides the detail we need to learn. Please keep up the quantity and the detail. Kent, I believe that what you share with us surpasses all other work out there on UA-cam and there is some really good stuff out there. Thank you and keep safe in this crazy Covid controlled world.
I appreciate that! Those are some very kind words, thank you! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Absolutely stunning. Thank You again for the advise and guided lessons,,,,
Thank you! Cheers!
As a beginning turner I really appreciate the descriptions and information as to what you are doing and why. Thanks !
Glad it was helpful! Happy Turning!
Your videos are always worth the time. I always learn something from them. Great stuff.
I appreciate that! Thank you and Happy Turning!
Thank you for not just time lapsing the coring or any of the steps. I enjoy the commentary, very informative.
You are so welcome! Thanks for saying that! Happy Turning!
Beautiful bowl awesome job. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much! Happy Turning!
very informative video. really enjoyed watching and listening.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks and Happy Turning!
Thanks for the video, very informative. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do! Happy Turning!
Great information Kent. Your narrative is very informative. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching. Glad you like this. Happy Turning!
Just started watching wood turning videos and I find them fascinating. I've noticed that all the bowls I've seen have thick flat edges along the brim and was wondering if it's possible to have thinner, more tapered and rounded brim edge surfaces? I think that would would look lovely! With that, your knowledge, skill, and finesse are highly admirable.
Hello Daniele, yes and shape and thickness is possible. However, the thin rimmed bowls are a bit more vulnerable to cracks if they are dropped. Here's a thinner bowl you might like ua-cam.com/video/qCgSw3WVOnY/v-deo.html Happy Turning!
Beautiful bowl love the grain enjoyed watching this video very informative as I will be getting lathe soon I have limited use of left arm due to stroke is this possible to accomplish before I buy a lathe
Thank you. I believe anything is possible. You will need to be able to apply downward force with your left hand to steady the tool on the tool rest, but the majority of tool movement comes from shifting your body weight, with a little "rudder steering" with your right hand. There are many people with physical limitations that turn very well. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl I've asked the ? To many turners and never replied thanks for the reply I figured I'd try it but will be watching your videos
Thank you for the teaching. I'm new to turning so again thank you.
You are so welcome Happy Turning!
Happy New Year Kent. Thanks for another great video.

👌💯🇧🇷
;) Happy Turning!
I'm just getting started in woodturning and I learned a lot from your video. 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together.
Quick question, why do you wear gloves? I was told that wearing gloves while turning was really dangerous.
TIA from Australia. 🇦🇺
You are so welcome! Shavings and splinters come off hot sometimes and get embedded in the side of my left hand. Not fun. Yes, trim the fingers off and be sure they are tight fitting. And stay on the safe side of the tool rest. ;) Happy Turning!
Sempre aprendendo com você, mestre.
Obrigado, é uma honra poder ajudá-lo em sua jornada de torneamento de madeira! Happy Turning!
Vance T. Austin, TX Bowl
Thank you for entering! Happy Turning!
i enjoyed watching your video,and learned a lot about bowlturning!happy newyear!
Excellent glad to hear it! Thank you and Happy Turning!
needs a burnt edge for accent!
Interesting idea. Thanks.
excellent tutorial again Kent, leaving some extra wood at the bottom for later shaping the foot was a great tip, I will try that next bowl. Happy New Year.
Glad to help. That was a game changer for me. Once you do that and plan the foot area, you can create any kind of base you'd like. Happy Turning!
Had to stop watching when only after 6 minutes in you had already promoted your other videos 4 times. Can't handle 47 minutes of that 🤨
I'm simply sharing other relevant videos for those that want to learn. Sorry your impatience caused you to miss the valuable gems of information in this video.
Impatience is the wrong word. It's the annoyance of the self promoting every other minute. I do like the content otherwise but in this instance the annoyance factor won out.
Kent, I'm thinking this criticism is mostly unique to the critic himself. On the positive side, it saves your regular viewers from hearing endless repititions... and enables your newer viewers to dig deeper by seeking out other relevant videos.
Thank you!
