I've been turning for about a year now. I've created three huge piles of sawdust! Ha ! I started when I was 72 I'm now 73 and wish I had started when I was 20. I have fallen in ❤️ with turning.. I think I have made every mistake 😕 possible, some twice, most mistakes continuously !!! I do real good making mushrooms but BOWL making still alludes me. I have made a few bowls with no bottoms or holes in the bottoms. And some with the sides cut out. User error. Ha ha. But live and learn. I tell myself all the time. (It's not rocket science) and that. I can do it.. I know I can just takes practice. I enjoyed your lecture on how and why to use a recess. I learned something. Thank you. 😊 I own a Mini on one table and a full size on another. Ha I out grew my Mini in 4 months. Ha ha. Just wanted to say thanks and I joined!
Excellent instructional video on tenons! I also liked your video angles and close-up shots of the tenon techniques and guidance on turning bowls. Thank you sir!
I know this video is not about turning technique, but you demonstrate something that is valuable to beginning turners (actually all turners). I have watched several of your videos and you seem to always try to make complete cuts with the bowl gouge, going from beginning to the end rather than starting and stopping. I think this technique is best way to end up with a "fair curve". Great work!
Good video, Dean! I recently did my 4th bowl (walnut) and had it jump off the lathe twice while hollowing the inside. I was using a tenon but had the 35mm spigot jaws on the chuck. After the second un-mounting in these jaws, the tenon was crushed. Using the proper jaws would have been a good idea. Your video showed me two things - make a proper tenon for proper "bowl" jaws and PRACTICE on some cheap pine!
As a new turner, this was extremely helpful. I’ve done four small bowls with recesses so far and a bud vase. I’ll try a tenon on my next bowl. I also subscribed..
Terrific instruction video Dean. Very logical explanation for you methods. I have usually done recesses as it allows me to finish a bowl quicker but didn't give the draw backs much thought. I have also avoided having a foot on my bowls but I think I am going to change my thinking on that as well. Thanks
Thank you for a very informative video most enjoyable and the explanations you gave make sense, just starting my journey in woodturning here in the uk confidence and procrastination are my biggest hurdles so far 😂
You show a newer woodturner so much more than a lot of other channels on UA-cam. Im an old man learning so much about my passion of woodturning from you. Thank you Dean. By the way, could you show some more Christmas ornaments soon? September is when I start turning Christmas presents! Your loyal follower, Rich
Skip That is a difficult question there are too many varibles for me to make suggestions about speed. If you do not feel comfortable slow it down. Thanks for Watching!!!
For some reason my tenons have been slipping off my chuck but my mortises don't. So I make mortises, but perhaps I should get a different chuck. The one I have uses these leavers to tighten rather than a turn key.
Great video. Just getting into turning bowls and this answered a LOT of questions. A bit off topic, but what speed are you turning? and do you have a video of what speed to turn?
Another informative video. I appreciate how you show all sorts of "smalls" and projects that I wouldn't normally think of as being made on a lathe (such as cars). How about showing some Christmas ornaments? Thanks again.
I recently received a lathe, but have never used one. I am left handed. All the videos look geared toward right handed methods. Are there any different methods for us lefties?
Cindy I turn both left and right handed this gives me the benifit of being able to put my body in the best position for the cut. Both have advantages and if possible practice both ways. It can be awkward making some cuts left handed. Mike Mahoney is left handed if you get a chance to see his videos. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for the explanation. I have never understood the desire for a small base on a bowl. It may be ok for a decorative (dust catching) bowl, but for a functional bowl (i.e. drain and dump the Green Beans in a bowl) it is too tippy.
Very good descriptions of all the details!
Thank you

Dean, thanks for all the helpful videos. I,m 85 and learn something every time I watch any video.
Welcome, Thanks for Watching!!!
Excellent instructional video on tenons! I also liked your video angles and close-up shots of the tenon techniques and guidance on turning bowls. Thank you sir!
Thanks for this great idea of the skew on the edge of the mount!! I have been having a bugger of a time ..Chuck
Very well explained Dean! See you Wednesday night.
See you Wednesday, Thanks for Watching!!!

Thanks Jim, and Thanks for Watching!!!
It was neat to see the bowls cut in half and how the jaws are supposed to sit , thanks for the insight
Glad it helped Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice job explaining recessed and tendoned bowls.
Glad you liked it Kenny, Thanks for Watching!!!
Great demo Dean! I've been turning for about 3 years and I got quite a bit from this video. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏾
Great video showing differences between tenon and recess. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the comment, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Great video. I’ve been turning for several years and am still learning..
Thanks Chris, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Thank you sir very awesome descriptions of that video! Seen tons of these without a doubt yours makes way more sense! 👍🏼🤘🏼💫🪵
Thanks Douglas, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks, Dean, for sharing your ideas. I love making bowls.
You are so welcome! Thanks for Watching!!!
Great video. I’m a new turner. This definitely helps me. Thank you
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!!!
More good explanations Dean. Nicely done video.
Thank You Doug!!!
Thank you so much Dean! This was exactly what I was looking for! I loved how you cut it in half and showed how it sat in the jaw!
Glad it was helpful Cindy, thank you for the suggestion, and Thanks for Watching!!!
@@DeansWoodworkingBTW you said my name perfectly.
Another very informative video. Thanks Dean

Thanks for the comment Bob woodturning is a learning process, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Great educational video. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Dean....another helpful video. I have been wanting to delve into bowls and this may have just helped me
Glad to help David, Thanks for Watching!!!
As a new turner, this was extremely helpful. I’ve done four small bowls with recesses so far and a bud vase. I’ll try a tenon on my next bowl.
I also subscribed..
Glad it was helpful, Thanks for Watching!!!
This is particularly helpful to me. It makes perfect sense, and with some practice I think my confidence will grow. Thanks for the demonstration!

Very helpful! Thanks
Thank you, Dean! I keep learning so much more from your videos.
Awesome, thank you! and Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks Dean…I’ve just started a new…I hope yarn bowl. But stopped to check out your video. I guess I need to decide how I want the foot to look first.

Richard Thank you so much for the kind words, I plan on releasing some ornament Videos soon. Thanks for Watching!!!
Very informative.
Glad you think so! Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks. Good advice
Thank you for Watching!!!
Some really good duct tape will probably get them halves back together.. Thanks Dean great insight..
You could be right, Thanks for Watching!!!
great video. Thanks Dean. Can you do a tool sharpening video? It's been a long learning curve for me and I'm struggling with it.
Robert that is in the plans Thanks for Watching!!!
Thank you Dean, you have been an inspiration to my beginning woodturning bowls. Looking forward to more of your tutorials.
Thanks Charles, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Hi Dean - great learning videos. Could you talk a little more about lathe speed with different size material?
Thanks
Skip

I do not have a speed readout and speed is very relative if it seems too fast slow down. Thanks for Watching!!!

Thanks for Watching!!!
What can you tell me about "shine juice"? Mine does not work as well as the UA-cam guys
I use a recess, because then I can incorporate it into the foot/base rather than have to loose more material.
Thanks for Watching!!!
Answer my questions thanks
No problem, Thanks for Watching!!!
