- This useful little dish isn't quite as challenging as it might appear at first sight. I was given the wood and have no idea what it is. You'll find a lot more information on my turning techniques in my books. www.richardraf...
Good to see someone describe splits and then discard timber. Very informative videos thank you
What incredible tips and tricks come up in the "narration". Thank you so much. I have a bunch of your books, and learned from them in the days before UA-cam. I just got a new lathe, and am going through your videos, and re-reading your books!
Incredible as always. I love to watch Richard Raffan turning a piece of timber into something beautiful.
Richard Raffan is the best woodturning instructor I ever had (tapes and books). Thank you , Sir!
Richard, if that hard-to-remove cap is a "push and turn" type, here's one trick... if it's a two-part cap, where you have to engage the outer cap with an inner shell to get the cap off, sneak a dab of CA glue into the crack between the two parts. When it's cured, both halves will be connected, and no "push" will ever be needed again to get the cap off... just twist.
At my age, I had to find an alternative that would work, and for two-part push-and-turn caps, the dab of CA has proven to be a wonderful solution.
Great video, by the way. Thanks!
Oh my God I cannot thank you enough for that solution I use Tru oil and always fight with the caps
Just stumbled onto your video, learn 4 things in one go, and your way of explaining is spot on, Thank-you, I now have lots of video's to catch up on.
Beautiful dish. I will have to try this - so much to learn! Thank you for the videos!
That sanding disc to take the bowl back to a square is genius. I have tried making square bowls before but they didn't look right to me after I was done, and your method fixes that problem! Thank you for another awesome lesson!
The point of turning a square bowl is not to cut the round to a square, but to keep the maximum dimensions of the blank.

@@j.a.d.creations whoops I've been doing that backwards. Just started out a couple months ago but learning with each turn and "mistake"
Your channel is the best turning content on youtube. Thanks!
I concur with the comment from J.a.D creations below. You are a true master. I am soaking up with relish the techniques you deploy with consummate ease. Thank you Richard
The importance of listening to the wood and what the sound can tell you that your eyes can't, brilliant. Fantastic video and instruction Richard. Than, you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for another enjoyable demonstration Richard, it's always a privilege to watch a true master and gentleman of the industry.
Thank you maestro. I always learn something from you videos. Much appreciated, God bless you.
Awesome piece Richard! Best video on UA-cam sir! Love your turnings!👊🏼 Happy Turning! 💫🪵
Thanks for the demonstration Richard. That dish is beautiful.
Very nice Richard!! I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Thank you for sharing!
Richard, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge of the tools and the wood.
Thanks for all your instructive videos. Very useful and educational. And thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us. Really very grateful!!!
I appreciate the fact that you don’t refine surfaces any earlier than you need to… provides for greater efficiency. I can say the same is true for my old trade of cement finishing, and probably the same with many trades I expect.
You're dead right. No point in completing something that might need attention later in the project.
Very good Richard, enjoyed watching the process. And yes, as I always say "Childproof to keep the adults out".
Great demo. Thanks Richard.
And another useful masterclass! Thank you, Richard!
Beautifully grain dish Richard. Thanks for sharing the process
Take care
Cheers

Always a pleasure watching you work!
Great work !!! And, you're a good teacher as well.
Hi Richard
Another gem from your experience and knowledge,thanks for sharing.
Love the moment when the oil hits the wood and it’s beauty really shines.
Regards. From NZ
Quite a nice piece Richard. I wasn't sure you were going to get there in the middle of the video. But you sure pulled it off very well at the end. I truly love the shape and the color.👍👍Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
I am truly inspired - thank you Richard
Useful and beautiful. Thanks once more for sharing your wisdom and experience.
Thanks Richard I’m just now stuck on a bit larger of the same dish and you got me unstuck. So much fun and educating to watch you work. Also, know that your explanations make sense so that I can put your techniques to work in my hands! Thank You!!
Richard, watching you I always learn so much. I tried a similar dish, unsuccessfully, on a smaller scale a couple of times. Thanks to your guidance, I am going to try again after you sharing your tips and guidance. Thank you so very much!
Thanks Richard. I've turned square before but haven't done the "sand back to square" trick. Saw it in one of your other videos. Got to try that.
Recently ran across another youtube turner ( Tomislav Tomasic Woodturning ) who's tool handling and work methods look sooo much like yours. He refers to you as his mentor and example. He couldn't have a better example in my opinion.
I think I helped him a bit.
Thank you Randy😀 He helped me a lot.... I'm turner the way I am beacuse oh Richard.....🤗
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning a lot of help....🤗
Another great video. Thank you for sharing your wonderful skill with us. I learn something,... sometimes several somethings, every time I watch a video you post.
Thank you, Richard. So grateful for your master class.
I am very happy that you’ve made these videos. I’ve got some Velcro and am going to make a sanding disc and support soon. Also the end grain hollowing is outrageous. Watched the video went to the shop and in three or for dips was at the bottom, way fast the a drill bit, and I had a round shape instead of the square that the bit leaves. Great tips!
Beautiful ❤
Enjoy watching where the project went. I feel the wood always becomes what it wants.
The wood might have something to say, but I have the final word.
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning your final word was nearly "funnel"! 😄
Thanks Richard always nice to get another view.
You really do well getting the right camera angle. Another great video.
Beautiful. This was astonishing to watch; it was hard to figure out exactly what you were going for and how were you going to get there. What a treat---and what a charming and beautiful bowl. And, yes, the top does look curved, which is what lends it the charm.
Very nice
Thank You!
Beautiful dish!
Best video yet Richard!
back in the summer i turned three american chestnut reclaimed from church hill downs stables construction. i am just relized how rare that is , what you thank
Looks amazing as usual fine sir.
Thank's as always.
Fantastic bowl and video. Thank you for the clarification regarding using the spindle gouge on a bowl. I have seen a couple videos using a spindle gouge on a bowl and was wondering why it was ok and safe
Wonderful! Thanks, RR
With the colour and shape it sort of reminds me of a square cut piece out of a pumpkin. And while that might not sound nice I mean it in a nice way. The consistent thickness is the shell of the pumpkin and the flat bevels are the cuts made to get into the back of what would be a Jack'O Lantern. I love the play between the planar edges and the curves.
Very nice!
Mastery. Regards AJ

Verrrrryyy nnniiiccee ‼️‼️‼️‼️ piece ‼️‼️🧩
Olá Richard! Gostei muito da aula. O prato ficou muito lindo.
Gratidão
Very nicely done, sir. It is a pleasure to watch you turn. What species of wood is that?
Looks like mAfrican Mahogany?
Thank you yet again, Richard, some good ideas May I ask please I didn’t quite hear what the stuff you used to clean off your sand paper Wass can you please tell me what it was? Many thanks, William
It's the tailend of a rubber cleaning stick. You should be able to buy abrasive cleaning sticks anywhere they sell sanding belts and disks. I've seen a shoe sole used, but those that don't work further clog the belt.
Sq bowls are challenge, Thanks.
Great Bowl! That spindle gouge is getting pretty short!
Still good for a few more weeks solid turning. I have another even shorter and still in use and a new one ready to go.
How do you get the rounded side along the length of the shear scraper (not the radius on the end)? Do they come that way or do you grind it?
Thanks for another idea for a nice turning. Just how large is that set of jaws you used and is that a Vicmarc chuck? Thanks. Cheers, Tom
All my chucks are Vicmarc. These are 128mm Dovetail Jaws.
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning Thanks. I just ordered a set of 128 mm for my VM 120 last week. Cheers, Tom
What rubber was that you used to clean the sanding disc?
I believe it's crepe rubber. You should be able to buy abrasive cleaning sticks anywhere they sell sanding belts and disks. I've seen a shoe sole used, but those that don't work further clog the belt. Guess how I discovered that...
