My 79 yr old husband formerly taught woodworking and has promised to teach me woodturning. His woodshop has been in “retirement” and is a mess, so until it's ready to use, we watch your videos almost daily. When we first found you, he said “That guy knows his stuff.” I agree!
Thanks you kindly! I'm honored you watch my videos. I wish you all the best when you shop is ready. Remember to enjoy the whole process and practice persistently. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl .. .. . L,

Honestly Kent, I've learned more from you than most other UA-cam wood turning videos. Your video about riding the bevel made a light go off in my head and the degree grind. I'm stuck on the 55 degree Irish grind. It serves me well. I've watched 100's of videos, but it's you and Cap'n Eddie Castelin. Y'all are the best. People ask me how I did that? I watched UA-cam videos. Glad I found you.
Wow, thanks. I'm so glad to be a part of your journey! Enjoy and Happy Turning!
I have a lot of loblolly pines on my property. The wood is more pale and the blue coloring is randomly scattered throughout the wood. The pine you have here has more defined rings. I practiced on green pieces of this pine until stopped having tear out before I bought my first bowl blank. I made a couple lamp shades with it as well. The firey red glow through the wood makes a plain lamp give a lot of warmth to a room.
I planted every tree on my property so all my trees are younger than me lol.
That's fantastic you have focused on that species and got to know it so well. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Thanks! Looking forward to the drying e-course, always interested in that segment of turning.
Thanks! I'm working on that eCourse right now. Stay tuned. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Kent, I was going back through previously watched videos. When you were hollowing the bowl. All I could see was your logo. Imagine that how cool is this. Keep turning and be safe.
I’m so glad I found your videos. Just getting truly started with this turning and your videos are helping tremendously. I turned A 6 inch saucer in shop class 53 yrs ago, and done nothing with a lathe since, but decided to take it up again. Your instructions are very clear and easy to grasp. Many thanx
Tennessee Fly Fisher
Neil, Thank you for writing and sharing! I'm so glad you are getting back to the lathe. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Love the piece, Kent! And I cannot tell you how much your videos have improved my turning. Almost exponential. Still a 1 year rookie, but a much better rookie now as a result of your teachings. Thank you very much!
Awesome! Thank you for writing and sharing! I'm honored to learn of your improves! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Love that bowl what a very different look to a bowl.
Love this pattern. I've got the same sap-spalting pine log sections I'm turning now. Thanks for your postings
Good video, I often struggle with end grain
Kent, I looked this video up to watch a second time. I’ve got my first large end grain bowl mounted and thought I’d better have a refresher. I’m using a face plate and my bowl will be a little deeper but it’s about the same diameter.
Face shield at the ready, benches covered with painters plastic, tools sharp, fingers (figuratively) crossed and ready to try. Wish me luck.
Always a school day when I watch you, appreciated.
Thanks! I appreciate that! Life's about learning. Class is in session. ;) All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Wish I knew the brown bag trick a couple weeks ago. I found an 18" x 7" log in the community brush pile that looked like cedar but had only a wet wood smell. Very wet. I turned a bowl from a 4" chunk that looked good. Put in the house and went away for the weekend. It cracked like crazy. One crack was 3/8" out the outer rim. Very disappointing. I took it back out to the shop and loaded it up with CA glue. Now I'm afraid to cut the rest of the log into chunks. When I get around to cutting up the rest of the log, I'm going to wrap each piece in a heavy paper I have and monitor it daily.
Thanks for another great informational video.
I'm working on turning an end grain bowl out of Mimosa. The grain on Mimosa is very spectacular and I hope it turns out half as good as yours.
Really gorgeous...love the growth rings!
Thank you! Cheers! Happy Turning!
Appreciate your explanations on why and how you are working the bowl. Much better than watching someone just turn a bowl. Thank you for sharing. You dun good!
Thanks 👍Glad you like this style. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Very informative!
Your knowledge and experienceis evident by the work you do and your rumning commentary while you're doing it. Have you written, or are you planning to write a book? You're abc's of turning would probably serve st the 'goto' tome foe all aspiring turners. Great job, thanks fof sharing!
Thank you Kent for your videos. I always follow them with a great pleasure. Your advice is well build and your logical explanations really instructive. 👍
Thank you kindly! I'm honored you watch! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Great advice and tips, thank you 👍👍
Thank you kindly! Happy Turning!
WOW! Love it!
Thank you, Monica!
Will done
Kent, thank you for making yet another inspirational video. And again thanks to you there will soon be end turning project on our lathe!
Great, glad this inspired you. Enjoy and All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I wanna know how that Bowl turns out when its done, if You want to mention it. That is a really nice way to turn out that wood...in My opinion, of course ❣
I'll see what I can do. Happy Turning!
Beautiful piece indeed 🏆👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you! ;) Happy Turning!
Thanks! Another project for my to-do list.
Great! Go for it! Happy Turning!
Didn't know pine could look that beautiful! Thanks for sharing 👍! Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!
Thanks. Yes, I think all tree species are beautiful in one way or another. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Hey, thank you for all the help and advice you have given me. You have helped me become a much better wood turner.
Wow, fantastic. Thanks for sharing. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Really cool! Thx for sharing!
My pleasure! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I think that this platter/bowl will look fantastic when it is finished Kent.
Thanks! Happy Turning!
That's beautiful 😍 the dark bleeding streaks give it dimension almost makes it look like waves
Thanks, Mandi! Yes, I agree. I'm not sure what makes those streaks, perhaps mineral deposits. I've seen them on pine that have been hit by lightning as well. Not sure if that is the case here. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
cool project Kent - Thanks.
Thanks. Glad you like. Happy Turning!
Looks fantastic
Thank you!
Beautiful piece! I’m going to try one myself
Great. You can do it. Happy Turning!
Love the grain pattern. I have some American Elm logs drying now and will give this technique a try.
Wonderful! Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Exactly what I needed! Thank you so much!
You're so welcome! Happy Turning!
Dry informative and useful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I like the tip about the bag. Always a problem and all I could think about during this video was that the platter/ bowl will crack when drying. Great job
Glad it was helpful! Happy Turning!
Amazing platter/bowl the end grain give it a nice look, thanks again for your instrucions.
My pleasure, Tom! Thanks and Happy Turning!
Love your videos. I am learning so much! Thank you.
Glad to hear Lori! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I always enjoy your videos. I have gone back and watched again many times. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you so much!!! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Absolutely awesome! You are so clever!
Thanks. Glad you like this one. Happy Turning!
Very nice. I want to try the same!
Great video, with valuable tips. I want to add that the wood appears to be Ponderosa Pine which is susceptible to the mountain pine beetle. These beetles burrow under the bark to winter, and bring with them a blue fungus. The burrowing cuts and compromises some of the water conductive fibers which transports the blue fungus, This causes the blue stains in the outer edges of the tree. Because water conduction is compromised, if the tree can't purge the beetle with it's sap the tree begins to die from the top down. You can see examples of this in most big box lumber stores.
Love your work you take the time to explain what you are doing
Love it.
Thank you, Hubert! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
i am a spindle turner that also turns bowls. I have yet to turn a bowl that isn't end grain. Thus video will really help me to get better results and not so much sanding. Love your stuff and am finally getting some pro help. I m totally self taught so have a lot to learn. I do not use gouges rather carbide tools. I'm about to start changing so stand by.
Glad it was helpful, Roger! Enjoy the journey and Happy Turning!
Great help, thank you so moch
You're welcome, Ed! Happy Turning!
Great video on end grain turning not to mention a beautiful bowl. When I first got started in turning I was trying to make bowls this way primarily because I didn’t know any better and got so frustrated with how miserable they would turn out. I have a few logs that I’ve been hanging onto that I thought would make for cool deep bowls with taller bases that Would be turned end grain, this video as well as your last have definitely taught me the correct way to go about making something more than a hollow form or small box that would be end grain turned. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for writing and sharing! So glad this helped you. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
A fantastic piece my wife's new laith is coming in three weeks so she is prepping her workshop for bigger turnings and she loves the look of this one
Sounds great! Enjoy! Happy Turning!
Well done sir! You are a very good teacher! I just came across this video and the timing is perfect as I just picked up a piece of Norfolk Island Pine. I could make 2 shallow bowls or a single deeper bowl. Thank you!
Excellent, Joel. Enjoy! Happy Turning!
Kent, each time I watch you videos I am amazed at your skills and descriptions, great teaching skills besides the art you produce. Have you turned end grain with Norfolk Pine ? What of it's embedded limbs - I would like to see it done. Would you get catches with the crossing limb segments?
Nelson, Thank you, for the kind words. Norfolk pine will tear a bit at times, but with a sharp gouge the limbs are really no issue. All the best to you and Happy Turning! Kent
Hi Kent,
I enjoyed see this pine bowl end grain. I have tried different ways to dry my turned bowls and most of the time mold becomes a factor. I live in Tennessee and for now just letting them dry in the shop has worked for me. I have also tried the microwave but must have done that a little wrong also. But I do enjoy and learning from you each time and thank you also.👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing. Yes, there is a lot of experimenting needed to get the right combination. Happy Turning!
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
WOW ken great shape.
Much appreciated! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Nice job!
Thanks Jimmy! Happy Turning!
Yeah man, nice job
Thank you! Happy Turning!
Brilliant video
Thank you, Thomas!
The beauty of wood, ever piece is different. Lyndoch SA down under
Indeed they are! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I don't know if I missed it but would like to see this end grain bowl after it dried and finished.
enjoy watching your emails and the way you explain what you are doing and why. that is very handy for me i am learning a lot from you . Thank you very much. i am setting up hoping to start turning soon. so at the moment i know nothing. so i hope that you do not mind me trying to learn by all i can.
Sounds great David. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Nice end grain bowl, Kent. Last time I tried end grain turning was a diaster. But, it was on dry,hard wood. Next time I will try green wood.
Sounds nice J. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
great to watch,,,,,,,,you are a good teacher
Thank you kindly!!! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Beautiful wood work my friend, and as been a beginner, I am learning a lot, thank you verry much.
My pleasure, Humberto! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
almost all my turnings are end grain,thanks,BM
Sounds good Bryan! Happy Turning!
Good informative video nice bowl 👍
Thank you, Oliver! Happy Turning!
Very useful 👍💙
Thank you, Aras!
Ken nice video once again, I watched the last video on the other end grain bowl. I purchased the hook tool and it just arrived, can’t wait to test it out. Thanks again for the great educational videos.
Fantastic! Enjoy! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
That's a very pretty piece I'd call it a platter I like the way you explained why you do the things you do try doing a endgrain crotch that will give you a lot more challenges I live in Utah if the wood was that wet here it'll probably start splitting before I got it turned. Any idea's thank you for all you share with us stay safe
Elden, check out my Tree to Bowl - Understanding Green Wood online course. I think you'll learn many tips for handle that timber. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I ave bee turning since 93 and I have end grain turning is my favorite
Yes, end grain can be fun! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
This was a good video for learning so thanks for the information and practical information. very helpful. : )
You are welcome William! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
I'd probably flatten one side, make a tennon, and then flip it immediately to get rid of the bit, then flatten the other side, make a tennon there as well and shape the outside of the bowl, then proceed as usual by flipping it again and removing the first tenoon while shaping the inside. Just to get rid of that bit asap and have the piece (especially such a large one) mounted more reliably.
I am in the middle of a very similar turning with a walnut cookie I cut down 4 years ago. I just let it dry and crack (which it didn’t crack too badly). I have almost finished turning the inside. It’s fun to practice those long smooth cuts into endgrain.
Yes, it is fun and completely different compared to side grain turning. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
hello kent, thank you for the beautiful video, i really enjoy your videos they inspire me greatly, greetings from a swiss novice 👍👍
So nice of you, thank you! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Bladder. LOL. We live in Mississippi and pine is all.we.have. i was kind of bummed about that as we're getting ready to start turning but this makes me feel a little better about our turning prospects. Thanks!
We have a lot of oak here and people shy away from it often too. I've found a few varieties of oak that are amazing to turn. I bet you can find pine species that are similar. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Nice job Kent. We have a platter project for our turning club coming up. This will give me a heads up for my project. Thanks!
Fantastic! Hope this helps a bit. Happy Turning!
The amount of water pouring out of that log, wow!
Yes, much bound water inside. Happy Turning!
That’s cool I used to make end grain bowls when I first started
I did too but it was mainly because I was never told on any of the beginner videos I watched that you had to cut the logs down the middle to turn the side grain. Used to get so frustrated watching videos where they removed huge strips easily and near effortlessly hollowing them while I got small pieces/dust and tons of skips while using the bowl gouge before I experimented with cutting it in half.....damn near teared up when I started to removed chunks of wood for the first time but at least I got damn good with end grain turning
@@ericmendoza8243 lol same
Yes, it's very frustrating at first when its not clear about side or end grain turnings. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl hello I have a big choice to make so Im a 13 year old woodworker and have to buy my own tools so I have a cheap WEN lathe 8x12 clearing so I am trying to decide whether I should buy a jet 10x15 variable speed lathe or should I by a one way sharpening system for my bowl gouges because I am currently working with dry cherry wood and that’s kinda hard. so please get back to me if you can and happy wood turning to you too
WOW! Amazing turning. Looks really cool. I thought you would change the ring back to four legs. Thanks for sharing.
That's possible, and a got subject for another video. Happy Turning!
Awesome videos. I would love to see the finished product after drying, sanding and oiling. I assume all sanding would need to be off-lathe.

Thanks for entering! Happy Turning!
Yeeees thank you
I loved your last video as well as this one
Can you do more end grain videos and ideas please ?❤️
I'll see what I can do for you. Happy Turning!
I don’t understand how you don’t have more subscribers…. Not only are your videos technically well done - image, sound, editing, pacing (I am a pro video editor), but the content is fantastic and clearly spelled out…
Great video and thanks for the clear explanations along the way... In preparing blanks from logs for side-grain bowls we always take care to remove the pith from the blank for fear of cracking. In the case of end-grain bowls the pith will of course be in the bowl...I understand the notion of slowing down the drying process to prevent cracks... but when starting with green wood won't cracks still begin at the pith and propagate outwards?
Yes, it is very likely going to crack. However, the crack can be repaired or left as a feature. Happy Turning!
Nice project this week brother. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

Thanks! Will do! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Gorgeous!
From my experience, I'm wondering if even by slowing the drying process if you're going to escape checking.
One of my favorite parts of your videos is hearing you express your enjoyment in the beauty & art of it all.
I've had the experience several times of being so moved by the shear beauty of the piece itself, that I felt I couldn't in good conscience put my initials on the bottom... like, "wow, I didn't do that!"
Yes, there is magic in creating turnings with wood. I feel the same way many times. This piece will probably check and I'll incorporate that into the final piece, one way or another. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

I live in the pine belt I will have to do a pine bowl we have a bunch of insect kill may try one of these as well
Perfect! Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Why are you using a MT2 extension in you videos? Videos are great, watch them all
learn a lot. Thanks
Glad you like them! The extension came with my lathe to bridge the gap when the rail extension is removed. I have a 16" swing and a 32" swing with the rail section removed. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
You can clean deep tears with sand paper but you have to work low to high grain then start all over again and keep working low to high til you get under it
That’s a neat bowl!! I learn something each time I view your videos.👍👍👍👍
However, you left out the scene of picking up ditch wood off the roadside and burning rubber as you leave in your car.😂
Lol. Glad you liked that. I probably shouldn't make a point of showing reckless driving in all my videos. ;) Happy Turning!
looks like a ponderosa pine to me. I don't have a lathe, i just enjoy your videos, but i do own a sawmill. I have noticed that the amount of pitch in the wood depends on the time of year the tree is cut down. live pines are about 50% water year round but are really sticky with sap if cut down in the springtime. it makes a difference on my blade lubricant on a sticky tree. if its real bad, i have to add pinesol or dawn dish soap to keep the pitch from building up on the blade. also, if in a bark beatle zone, pines should only be taken in the winter when the bugs are dormant, if possible. no sense providing them anymore habitat than necessary.
the pith being off center usually means constant wind from one side, or it was growing on a hillside.
Josh, thanks for writing and sharing. Great info there! I'm sure you've seen you share of interesting trees! All the best to you and Happy Turning (maybe someday)! ;)
I get the impression that an end grain bowl would be harder to do for a beginner? But I love the looks of it
It's not that hard to make. You can do it. Happy Turning!
I hope you'll show the progress of these green-turned bowls as the weeks progress. I'd love to see them as they dry. How do you know when they're done? Do you just go by the condition of the bag, or do you weigh or something else more analytical? Then what? sand and finish as usual???
You'll know when the bowl is drying, it's very obvious. Also, weighing is the method to know when the bowl has reached equilibrium. Happy Turning!
For a beginner like me, this channel is the best I can ask for, and I believe experienced turners will find it interesting too... great work man.
Only have one question, what is your thought about expanding jaw hold, and whether or not are you planning a video about it.
Thank you for the kind words. I rarely use a mortise, with an expanded hold because I want the mass at the bowl bottom so I can customize the shape of the base and the foot. Plus, narrow bottom bowls do not offer enough "meat" for a secure mortise connection. Just my preference. Both ways can work. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl cheers for a proper answer man. Same wishes to you too!
15:26 you can see the water dripping off his gouge🤣👍
Yup. ;) Happy Turning!
Yo hubiese balanceado y emparejado la superficie exterior con una gubia mas gruesa y trabajando de adentro hacia afuera y después a la inversa. Muy lindo trabajo. Felicitaciones
Sí, eso también funciona. Hay muchas maneras. ¡Todo lo mejor para ti y feliz cambio!
Hi Kent. Great bowl. If you wrap it in plastic does it mold?
Thank you, Susan. Yes, holding the moisture in tire will usually lead to more trouble.
Only 60 years old! This is a young fellow
Yes it is! ;) Happy Turning!
Very helpful information! What was the initial moisture?
Love this. Do you have a separate video that shows the end result after sanding and oiling?
Coming up Denise!
Amazing bowl. Please make an update video at some point. I’d love to see the finished bowl and know drying time.
Thanks for the idea!
