- Wood turning a river bowl can be one of the most stunning pieces that comes from a wood lathe but sometimes they can be really problematic from the start.

Wood turning can be a dangerous hobby. My videos show my methods of turning and if you do not feel comfortable with my methods please do not copy them but rather use a method you feel comfortable using. Your safety is your responsibility as is the safety in your workshop. Enjoy the videos, hopefully something inspires you or helps you along the way. Irish woodturning is a craft that is dying out and should be preserved so that the tradition of Wood turning in Ireland stays alive and well.

I think that is a beauty Shay.
It amazed me how much trouble a small little knot gave you.
Enjoyed watching except my tea is now cold LOL.
Take care mate.
Cheers, Huw
Thanks Huw. Yeah for some reason that little knot was like iron.

Beautiful bowl, Shay. 😊😊
@copperowlwoodturning5929 thanks Rob.

Nice piece Shay, I am not into resin, but when used well it adds a lot to a piece
Thanks Pete, I like it in certain uses but in certain others I would hold the same opinion as you mate.

À lot of work involved in that Shay but well worth it when you see the outcome. I can imagine that there were a few choice words left your lips on this one 😮😁👍🏴
@mashmade-airth there was indeed Jim and you are correct in your assumption 😁.
Shay
Wow Big bowl
Yup it is a good size.

Beautiful bowl.
Thank you Sue.

Wow that was a beautiful bowl!! Beautiful wood/grain/shape.. everything. The bowl sure didn't wanna make it easy at first between the resin pour and the knots! 'When it rains it pours!' as they say :p
I wish my setup could allow large diameter pieces like that, but at my experience level perhaps that is for the best :p I'm going to have to look-up the "Rule of Thirds" you mentioned though I suspect I'll come across more references and explanations as I dig deeper into your video library.
Thanks for sharing, I always learn and feel inspired so thank you!
Yeah start small and work you way up Perry. The rule of thirds is simple enough. If you put a foot on a bowl that is a third of it's diameter it visually looks better and more balanced and it also will not tip over when the bowl has stuff in it. It is both an artistic rule and a physics rule all in one..

@@BBTurning Makes sense! Thanks!
I often see bowl projects with great big wide bases and think they look so great and stable, always shocked when the turner then parts it off. I guess its a style preference or something. Smaller bases more hidden into the bowl look sleek and great too but as a huge fan of wood grain it always seem a shame to hide any grain revealing opportunity :p
Very well said Perry. I find quite a few turners seem to totally forget about the grain and sacrifice it for a shape.

Bravo buddy
Thanks Ron.
