I am a Bowl Carver, I specialize in hand hewn wooden bowls. I plan to do several videos showing my entire bowl making process, for both pre-made blanks and carving from a log.
It is starting to warm up and I can start getting back to work, and make some new videos. I am planning on doing videos on:
Tool maintenance
Making blanks
Trencher/dough bowl from split
Kuksa
Let me know if there is anything else you might want me to do, or which videos you would prefer to see first.

I decide it was time to make a new camp kitchen. I had some old pine, that was previously used as bookshelves, and had been painted brown. What a shame it was painted the wood was absolutely gorgeous. the background music was pulled from the RUclips Audio library. Center Ring by Freedom Trial Studio.
Rebuilding the Firewood wagon
Просмотров 994 года назад
I was given this wagon a couple years ago from the in-laws for the purpose of hauling firewood. The story of it goes that my Wife's grandfather made this wagon for hauling firewood when he was in high school as an FFA project. Unfortunately, last season it started to fall apart on me and after a few quick repairs to get through the season it became clear that the wagon was going to need to be r...

Made this mini work bench so I could use it for power carving. I made a lot of mistakes making this, but fond some work arounds that may be useful for other.
Making a New travel toolbox for my Bowl making tools
Просмотров 335 лет назад
I decided to make a new travel toolbox for all of my bowl making tools and items. I used oak and cedar to build the toolbox. I decided not to film any of the planing, jointing, or sawing and concentrate mostly on the assembly of the toolbox. I hope you enjoy.
Building myself a Keezer
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.5 лет назад
I decided to take the step from having kegs with party taps in my keezer, to having a keezer with a collar and exterior beer taps. I must say this is not the pretties thing I have ever built, and the Oak board I used was cut close to the pith so it had some major cracks that had to be dealt with. I got some new cameras, I am not very happy with them. They did not preform as I would have liked t...

How to dry a wooden bowl. Plastic bag method
Whooooooooooo
I guess a lid for a mug is still a thirst trap, just more literal than I was searching for.
this is exactly what im gonna build tomorrow, are you using 2 by (?
I am using 2x8, I will also ass the adhesive I used in this video failed on me this year.
Great video. Do you use the same size hosing for gas a beer or are they different?
I used the same size hoses for both gas and beer on my keezer.
Great way to run out of fingers
nice work bro..with basic tool and hand you manage to do that..amazing skill bro.
Hi Chris is the collar 2x8?
And can you tell us what brand of freezer that is? I like the dimensions. Thank you Chris.
Yes, the collar is 2x8. Sorry for the long response time.
Thank you Chris. I love it, do you know what brand of freezer it is?
@@thesupergamermario3701 It is a Kenmore freezer
Thank you Chris
Nice build. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of room in the keezer. We’re you able to fit a third corney keg in there?
Yes, I keep three of them plus the CO2 tank in there. The Sanke keg in the middle can be difficult to get in and out with the lines getting in the way sometimes.
Hi. Nice build. What is the size of the freezer?
it's pretty small, it was advertised as being 5.1 cubic feet.
A carving bench would be good to have..........
I had one, but never used it. I always found using a stump like this to be easier.
Hi Chris, have you put longer fluid lines in since this build? Short ones tend to make the beer very frothy.
No I have not, I have only had one beer that has been very frothy and I just assumed I went overboard when I force carbed it. I will have to consider that when I change out fresh lines again.

great little project and useful trailer, I'm sure! Was your thought to space out the deck boards to let the chips fall out on their own? I like the side trays!
Yes, on the original design the accumulation of chips, bark, and dirt required periodic removal, and is probably the reason the side were rotting.
First!
That moment when you realize that none of your tools fit in your drawers.
I edited out the part where I realized I cut the sides 2" shorter then I had in my plans.
Nicely done. Can you share details on your tools, where can i purchase them?
The Adzes are a colonial pattern bowl adze, which are modeled after chair adzes. Mine were black smith made by a blacksmith who has passed a way a few years back and I have not found a blacksmith that will make them like that frequently. The spoon gouge was given to me by the gentleman that taught me carving and I do not knew who made it for him. The crook knives seen in this video area generic brand I bought off eBay, I have since replaced with Moras.
Super accurate skills. Go on and get it Son. Nice Bowl.
Pretty cool
I am so sure that you will find good way to make it on woodprix.
Awesome to me

Your stop motion work has become outstanding! You can barely tell that this entire video was shot in reverse.
Love the infomercial intro. Captions are swell as well.

You still got 10 fingers speedy?
where do you buy this 'flap wheel'
Mostly, I get them from Fastenal, but I have also found them at flea markets, garage sales, and auctions. I try to keep an eye out for them everywhere I go.
Chris Boswell i went to fastenall and didnt see anything like it. I found some discs that would work, but they told me id have to buy a certain tool, do you have an adapter on that for the drill?

Nice work. I am new at bowl carving and have used a gouge, but want to buy an adze. Did yours come sharp ready to use? I looked on eBay as you mentioned, but did not spot one that looks like yours. Was it from Bulgaria? Seems like a lot of sellers from there.
Mine did come sharp ready to use. Unfortunately, the blacksmith that made mine died about 4 years ago. I looked at the ones you mentioned on eBay from Bulgaria, they appear to be well made, I do have one adze of that style that I made myself, and it works just fine but the thin edge is more prone to sticking it the wood. I do recommend the forged ones over the mass produced ones.
You may go to woodprix website if you'd like to make it yourself guys.
Nerve shredding
Wow thats dodgy :L
For those worried about his fingers, the speed makes it look worse than it is. He's takin lots of very short shallow chops, fairly easy to control
Ps fingers are for sissies
I really like your technique. Very similar to how I carve out spoons with a crook knife, very different apparently from how most carve out a bowl
Living on the edge!
you are dangerous
How do you dry your bowls and how long does it take
I use the Plastic bag method. It can vary widely form size of bowl to type of wood the bowl is made from. I have a short video about my method, please forgive the speech patterns, ruclips.net/video/YDDoiojodd8/видео.html .
What kind of adze are you using? I'm looking to get one, but I find very few options online. Thanks! Amazing skill
My adzes are hand forged from old claw hammers. I prefer this style of adze for its heft and shape. I find most blacksmiths draw the thickness or the blade out too much or put too much curve in the neck. I do know a few bowl carves that like that shape and style, it really comes down to personal preference. Ebay has 7 pages of adzes right now, with a wide variety of styles and prices. I found both of my adzes on eBay, Woodcraft has one they sell (but it is pricey), Etsy even has a couple. I recommend looking at several finding a shape and style you like and trying to chase down a blacksmith willing to make one for you.
Looks good, but if I see you reach across your band saw one more time...
Good work. Which tree log did you use?
Box Elder (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_negundo) has very vibrant colors and is fairly easy to carve.
how do you manage to keep your fingers for yourself? seriously, is there a special technique?
Having good hand-eye coordination is a plus. Otherwise, I try to keep my holding hand opposite of where I am chopping. Also with the style adze I use it makes it easier to swing more like a hammer and less like an axe. The chops are more of a downward motion and less of a sweeping arced motion.
Chris Boswell well no matter how careful i am i still find my hands running into edges. i have a magnet for wounds
Just a matter of time!
I really appreciate the high-speed demo. Also, no chatter wandering off the subject, or annoying vocal tics, just straightforward demonstration that speaks for itself. As a beginner, I will use clamps until I am more comfortable and proficient with the adze. Great vid, very helpful. Thank you.
a very nice bowl, but man it was a bit cringy when you started out with the adze.
just work more safely
sorry couldn't watch this video. Your fingers.
Half the time I think that is the main reason people do watch. It's like watching a car race, no you do not want someone to get hurt but you would like to see a wreck.
Nice vid. Very helpful.
how long did this take in real time?
+Miles Welbourn about 40 minutes
