Just found your video’s and you are the first Lady tourner on my list. Enjoy your work. I just started turning about five months ago and totally addicted.
Beautiful grain in this piece. I like this piece without a foot. It continues a simple style bowl with smooth and complete curves with out the interruption of a foot. 🤠
I really admire your courage in turning a log rather than making a round first. I tried it once but couldn't keep up with my lathe as it bounced around the shop! I also really like your presentation of voice over as I feel it can convey your ideas better than those who try to talk over the noise of the turning. Truely admire you artistic application to wood turning. Bottom line...LOVE YOUR WORK!
I am have only been doing wood turning for about two weeks now and am more comfortable with making a visible foot but in the future will try to do a flat bottom bowl. But they both visually look good depending on the shape of the bowl.
Nice work, Peggy! I'm in the middle of a similar project, but my tenon broke and the piece then required a design change LOL. Glad it all worked out for you here! Cheers and thumbs up!
Such a Beautiful bowl! Love that spalting! Gives it such great character! And your scientific measuring procedures...Phenomenal! Lol! Very funny! Heading to your Etsy store now! Looking forward to next week! Take Care!
What do I prefer, I like a foot on the bowls --- but what I really like is a number 1 gennaker, with a 130% jib, main sheet downhaul slack, and medium tension on the outhaul. 120 degrees off, 15 to 20 knots of wind, 2 - 3 foot sea, the tiller in one hand, a cold beer in the other. Making hull speed of 8 knots. Looking for the Southern Cross.
Peggy another beautiful bowl I have to tell you girl you’re really good at this and I hope I can become as good as you I haven’t got no equipment yet but I will be getting it soon I just hope well I’m learning off of you people I hope I can catch just the keys they did that for myself great job beautiful bowl keep doing what you’re doing and teach me what I don’t know thank you so much and God bless you
PF Woodturning morning I was about an old one on on a road I was a good kid in a lot lot I am so excited that you were the the best friend in your heart I know I was going with him I was like that you you have been in love for you o
Very very beautiful piece of Maple, I absolutely love the grain. Personally I prefer a foot even if it's just a small one but also I nearly always use a mortice as I can re-mount the bowl at any time in the future if needed. 👍👍👍
Love how much you explain as you go along. I'd be really interested to hear in a video how/why you go about choosing the speed of your lathe at any given time or for various situations.
Super looking grain in that bowl, great job. You have mentioned a number of times about sharpening your tools but never see it on camera. Have you done any videos on sharpening or care to share your process? I have recently started wood turning and have purchased a number of things I will need based on what I have learned so far by watching videos and practicing on my own lathe.
Peggy, Beautiful grain and a nice turn. Was anyone else worried there was tape and paint coming?... lol. My personal preference is a recess. Just my 2 cents. Enjoy the videos. Keep em’ coming.
Foot? Hmm, whichever one doesn't let the bowl roll too far 😁 OK, truth is The one that fits the overall design and purpose. Or what the client asks for. -Mike
i like mortises and tenons both, really no preference. just use whichever you think is the better choice for the grain, density, etc. beautiful bowl. ya done good!
Nice bowl, Peggy. A simple shape but that surprising grain really brought it around. My preference is a visible foot but not very big. Maybe only 1/8" high and hollow in the middle.
I like the flat best. I’ve personally done both also but by far most are flat, well a little concave. Do you use the chuck and an expanding grip? I really love wood turning and man is it addictive! You do some great work, keep it up!
Love how spalting makes the wood look. My latest wood working project I found spalting for the first time since I've started the hobby. As for the foot or flat issue. I think it depends on the project. I think the way you did it for this one was perfect.
Great looking bowl! Foot or flat bottom, both are good by me. I do have a question, why dont you use brown or clear CA instead of black to mend those cracks?
Nice bowl.. However, I would suggest you remove (bandsaw) a bit from the ends before you start turning, It will save considerable time and lessen danger. When I remove bulk, I also start from the bottom working towards the side - like you do. Regards from South Africa.
I like the foot. You do a great job turning. You are so talented. Do you sharpen your tools with grinder or honing stone. I know grinder but do you use a diamond homer. Thanks for your videos.
I've only been watching your channel for a short while, but I like a small foot. Not a tall foot like what the tennon would have been. More like what you had after you removed the tennon, but with a small thin rim the size of the tennon.if that makes any sense. By the way, when are you going to do a shop tour ?
The spalting made for some interesting grain patterns it was a lovely shape but I think the little foot come pedestal would have shown the shape up better and high lighted the pattern on the underside better but it's your piece and it came from your idea. Keep up the good work god bless you and your family.
I been following an watching for a while now really nice process. I noticed your tool rest or banjo keeps breaking loose on you on the roughing out state. I do have a question...your paste wax will if wear off over time? Is it conceited a durably like Generals finish salad bowl finish? I don't think paste wax as a final finish.
Thanks for watching. The Ack's Paste is not a paste wax, it's a sanding abrasive and the 2nd one is a polishing paste. I have had great results with it as the final finish.
Peggy, I'm hoping on some insights on some of your approaches: 1. I seem to recall you previously used the Yorkshire Grit line but switched to Acks. What spurred the change? 2. Denatured alcohol contains a poisonous compound added by the manufacturers. Does it dissipate to the point the bowls can be considered food-safe? 3. What goes into deciding whether you cut a mortise or a tenon? Personal preference? Thanks, and keep up the fantastic art and vids. Huge fan out here on the West Coast.
Thanks for watching. Yes, I used Yorkshire Grit before, I actually still have some. Once I tried Ack's I've been using that exclusively. I really like it. The denatured alcohol does dissipate before I put sanding sealer on. And Ack's products are food safe, which is the last finish that goes on. As far as the mortise or tenon, I've tried both, depends the piece really, the size and whether or not I want a foot or a flat bottom.
@@PFWoodturning Awesome, Peggy. Thanks for the responses, much appreciated. Trying to glean as much knowledge as I can before I start turning. Time to order some Ack's with Code PF10 ;)
For a bowl shaped like this I think it looks better without the foot. On wider flat bottom bowl I like a foot. It lets the bowl sit off the surface it is on kind, of like a shadow line!
@@PFWoodturning yeah my building is and I checked the lathe it was I didn't use the little feet so I would have the max amount on the ground but still shakes idk
Beautiful! I like how you included the little "imperfection" in the rim, really adds a lot of character
Thank you so much!
Just found your video’s and you are the first Lady tourner on my list. Enjoy your work. I just started turning about five months ago and totally addicted.
Welcome aboard! Yes, it's very addicting!
My goodness Peggy Stunning Bowl! The grain is gorgeous keep turning them out! Piece Out ✌
Thank you! Cheers!
Ms PF...absolutely beautiful spalting and grain pronunciation. Kudos, Lester
Thanks!!
I know I've said it before but I'm new at this and appreshate the way you explain things. It has helped me a lot. Very nice bowl again.
You're very welcome!
Its always amazing to see a chunk of wood become a beautiful turned bowl. You Rock!!!

Great Bowl, would like to hear the cutting sounds. At least, no music. Thank you, Larry
Noted. Thanks.
Love your work. Thank you for inspiring me to start turning as a hobby. Just bought my first lathe!
That is awesome! Thanks for watching!

Thank you!
I like both. Very beautiful work
Thanks, Thomas!
Beautiful work. Nicely done!
Thanks!
What a great bowl. I like the flat bottom on the bowl.
Thanks!
Outrageous Spalted maple Ou Rah! PF Wonderfull outcome! PS: Thanks for providing all those links!!!
Gary Henry no problem! Thanks for watching! 😀
Lovely bowl. I love how bark and spalting makes the work unique and one of an kind . . . :-)
Thanks, Peder. Yes, the figure in this and the imperfections really made this one unique.
I love the scientific bowl thicknessing method. That was a beast of a bit of log and what a lovely result.
:-) thanks!
Foot on the bottom of bowl. Nice wood turning PF!!” 👍👍👍. 🇺🇸
Thanks!!
PF Woodturning
I was going to respond in Klingon, but have already worn that bit of humor out.
Well done Peggy, love how it came out, always nice to find surprises inside a piece of wood, so long as those surprises aren't rocks or metal.
Ha, yes, a surprise of rocks and metal would not go too well!
I'm a new bowl turner (about 3 months) your techniques have been very helpful.
Awesome! Thanks, Lynn. Happy turning!
Wonderful bowl again. I really enjoy watching you turn.👍
Thank you!

Thanks, David! Good luck with the design change....I've had a few myself! ;-)
Great looking bowl. Beautiful piece of wood, You have great turning skills.

I love your courage turning that piece, is your lathe bolted to the floor, do you have many catches, your voice is so soothing and informative,
Thanks, Alec. It's not bolted to the floor, but it probably should be when I turn these bigger pieces.
You do great work keep it up I wish I was as good as thank you AR
Thanks for watching!
Great looking bowl, love the spalting.
Thanks! Me too!
Very beautiful bowl. I like the foot free bowl look myself.
Thank you!
Beautiful Bowl Peggy!
:-) Thank you!!!
Beautiful work again, very nicely filmed too.
Thanks!
That is gorgeous.
Thanks 😊
Sweet beautify done as usual
Thank you!
I think both foot and no foot are both great. Especially if you are selling, people have different tastes!
True, thanks!!
Foot, no foot, whatever the bowl tells me to do. Great work, love the shiny not so shiny look also.
Thanks!

Thanks. Yes, that is the good thing about a mortise.
Very nice. I love your videos. I leave the recess on most of my bowls. I like having the option of refinishing it if I need or want too.
Thanks, Greg. Yes, that is indeed a good option.
Love how much you explain as you go along. I'd be really interested to hear in a video how/why you go about choosing the speed of your lathe at any given time or for various situations.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
Speed is relative to how well it is balanced. The better the balance, the faster the speed. Larry
Super looking grain in that bowl, great job.

I have recently started wood turning and have purchased a number of things I will need based on what I have learned so far by watching videos and practicing on my own lathe.
Thanks! I have not done a dedicated sharpening video. In a future video I will highlight my new system, the Sorby Pro Edge.
Great video! Thanks for the regularity of your posting! Would you please share what company you got your pyrography stamp from?
Thanks. Here is the link to the branding iron: www.etsy.com/shop/vonHanke?ref=search_shop_redirect
Peggy,
Beautiful grain and a nice turn.
Was anyone else worried there was tape and paint coming?... lol.
My personal preference is a recess.
Just my 2 cents.

As always I enjoyed watching your work! I like the visible foot, but this is also a beautiful bowl.
Thank you!
Love the piece, thank you for the RPM references. I like flat vs foot.
Thanks, Richard! Cheers!
This is a real nice turn. It looks fantastic. My suggestion would be to put the bottom that you like the best.
Thanks, Richard!
Nice and beauty, thanks....
Thanks!!
@@PFWoodturning really love it!❤️
Nice job for such a scary hunk of wood.
Dixie Road wood. :-)
Well done love enjoyed watching as always I will send you some pictures of my turning if that's ok all the best martin
Sure. Thanks for watching!
Great video!
Thanks!
I have no preference on the foot issue. That’s up to the artist. A great piece, as always.
Thank you!!!

Great . Love the logo branding iron.

That’s a really nice bowl Peggy

Beautiful Peggy! I haven't tried any maple yet but it looks like I need to find a piece. For what it's worth, I prefer a foot. Gil
Thanks, Gil!!
Beautiful bowl...love your technique, love how you explain everything you do...where have you been hiding Peggy...😅
😊 thank you
And what size is your circular stamp? I am working on creating one for myself.
It's 1-inch. Thanks for watching!
great job keep it up
Thanks for watching!
Great looking bowl, appreciate the RPM notes. My preference is with a small foot, but this is a great project.
Thanks, Paul!
Maybe I missed it, I went down your list for tools & supplies. Where'd you get your branding iron? Also, I really like your channel!
Thanks for watching. The link is: www.etsy.com/shop/vonHanke?ref=shop_sugg
Really like the small “raw” bowl lip. Do you ever use a roughing gouge? Thanks!
Thanks. Usually I do not use a roughing gouge, I need to get a new one.
Great looking bowl 👍
Thanks!!
I like the foot. You do a great job turning. You are so talented. Do you sharpen your tools with grinder or honing stone. I know grinder but do you use a diamond homer. Thanks for your videos.
Thanks. I sharpen on a slow speed grinder with CBN wheels. ;-)
I would buy that , do you need to dry the wood before turning ? Good job !
Thanks. Yes I let this dry for a little over a year.
Excellent
Thanks!
Could I ask what you recommend for sharpening your tools, tia.
Sure. I use the Robert Sorby Pro Edge system. Here is a link if you want to check it out. amzn.to/3pwh6ZF
@@PFWoodturning Thanks for the prompt reply , keep up the good work
Do you compost the shavings from your projects?
I do not. I should though.
I've only been watching your channel for a short while, but I like a small foot. Not a tall foot like what the tennon would have been. More like what you had after you removed the tennon, but with a small thin rim the size of the tennon.if that makes any sense.
