DIY Rustic Bowl [No Lathe]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 апр 2020
- In this video I show how I made a bowl from a solid piece of Ash. I do not use a lathe to make the bowl, instead I use a speedcutter from Graff. It attaches to an angle grinder and easily carves the wood away.
The wood has had been drying for about 2 years in a shed before use. You could use greener wood but it will probably split when it dries which could look great and even more rustic!
I went for a basic curved shape but you could play around with different shapes and designs.
Its a nice little project to try during this lock down we are all having at the moment (Covid-19) Stay safe and thanks for watching.

nicely done. I'm a turner but I do make carved bowls too. I'd like to add one point of caution. those speedcutters especially the ones that are basically chainsaws on a wheel, have been responsible for some TERRIFIC injuries. They look so easy to use, but if you let it get away from you just slightly, they can really mangle whatever they touch. I've used a chainsaw for 50 years, and that is different. They are dangerous for sure, but you have bakes on moderns chainsaws, plus the cutter is further from you and more mass so it doesn't kick quite so quickly as a hand held grinder. In general the grinder works very well and can make you forget that at all times you keep BOTH hands on the tool.
Hi Paul, thank you. Yes I totally agree when using the cuter it need to be held tight with both hands. It can kick back very easily so you need to be concentrating fully when using it.
@joe blow vibration can really mess with your nerves haha. Some tools I’ve used have made my arms burn and tingle but never that fast, you prob just need to do it more often and get used to it.
what about shallow passes using a circular saw
that woodcutter sooooooo dangerous
You know I was going to say I was surprised by the blade having so few teeth, but with your comment about how it grips then now I know why. 👍
It's so nice just because it has a lot of imperfections. Nowadays people try to get it perfectly round, perfectly straight and so on, but the true pleasure of working is in this kind of things.
Very nice job
Thank you very much 👍
If you read Jean Auel's book 'The Valley of Horses' there is a part where Ayla decides she needs to make bowls. She makes them with her hand axe and smooths them with river sand. I imagine they look like this.
Excellent tutorial!! Thank you for sharing ☺️
Very enjoyable watching you carve that bowl. Good job mack. Thx for sharing.
Thank you Robert. Hope you are keeping well and safe.
Best bowl carving video on the internet !
Thank you Jake !
And its something that we can replicate ate home without professional tools
I recently got a wood carving disc for my angle grinder and a world of opportunities opened up before me as I saw what it could do. I live in the country so getting hold of a chunk of wood like this is relatively simple. Thankyou. you've inspired me to create.
Thanks Mike, send me some pics.
Excellent video!! Thanks for sharing it!
Thanks for watching Tony.
beautiful
congrats on these two lovely bowls
Thank you Colleen.
Exactly the sort of video I was after! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Brother....this is the best bowl I have ever seen...salute to you for your craft
Thank you very much!
Way cool! Very simple but time consuming. Great idea! ❤❤❤
My nice wooden spoon took me 5 days to carve, it being my first...
Nice work, thanks for sharing.
Thanks Mark
looks like a great hobby
Wow, beautiful! 👍👍
Thanks sparky 😁
Nice work. Thanks for the video. I've been wanting to do one like this..
Thanks Craig.
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful 😍
Excellent video and demonstration
Thank you very much!
Beautiful craftsmanship
Thanks you Mark.
Nice eamon still see you doing creative work God bless
Thank you very much.
That Ash wood cookie dried perfectly. I have a 14"x3" arbutus wood cookie I've been drying for a half year now that I had taken from a firewood stump, so one side was already seasoned and finely checked on that exposed end. I coated the cut end with wood glue and hopefully it dries out nicely and doesn't crack up on that side since I'm planning on using it for the seat of a stool.
Hope it doesn't crack up for you. would love to see the stool when finished.
@@EamonWalshDIY It's gonna be a bit of a challenge since I've never tried something like this plus I'm gonna do an epoxy pour on it to preserve the natural wood color of the arbutus.
Très beau travail. Merci pour cette vidéo intéressante. 🙏
Merci beaucoup
Wow!!thank you so much for showing that you can do most of it with a grinder!
Thank you for watching
@@EamonWalshDIY btw did you get that online? I tried to find one today in my local hardware shop and they didn't have any
@@painchaud2000 Yes online, like this one www.amazon.co.uk/Graff-SpeedCutter-Woodworking-Angle-grinder/dp/B07KFK3BH3 Beware these are very dangerous to use, make sure you ware proper ppe and and adhere to safety instructions.
This is fantastic thank you for your tutorial
Thank you very much🙂
Gorgeous. Thank you for showing a step by step idiot proof guide. I'm going to try and follow
Thank you very much Suzanne.
That looks so good!
Thank you
Those turned out great Eamon.
Thanks man! Hope you are keeping safe.
Cool bowls. I like how they turned out!
Thanks a lot Bruce.
well hello there Bruce
uKNOWuLIKE that hey there!
Thanks eamon I’m gonna try this one
This is so simple it's amazing. I'm gonna bust out my angle grinder more often.
Thank you Jeremy.

Nicely done! May i ask- what was the thickness of stump you used? Looks about 12-14 inches? Thx
Very nice!
Thank you Johnny.
Great result without using lathe.
Thank you Itzik 😁
I love it
Thank you.
Excellent
Thank you,
Awesome I’m so doing this.
👍
That's cool. I turn bowls but never done 1 like that.😊
Thanks uncle moe 👍
Beautiful work..How much for such a bowl or are they custom orders?
Thank you@@cyrilusly They were a one off Iam sorry to say, so none available for sale.
Wow. This is fantastic. Is the oil you use at the end food grade? I'm assuming yes. I think I need it for my countertops!!
Thank you Heather. Yes the oil is food safe. Here is a link to it: www.amazon.co.uk/Ronseal-ABWO1L-Anti-Bacterial-Worktop-Oil/dp/B0024LFSA0
Show de bola 👍💥
Would you do the same thing again if you had no lathe and wanted to hollow through the whole thing?
Superb.👌👌👌
Thank you !!!
How long should the wood dry before doing this?
Magnifique
Merci beaucoup
Os cara não tem medo de perder os dedo mesmo. Kkkkk 👏
😂
*No joke: I'd rather have this bowl than any lathe-turned bowl I've seen made on RUclips!*
Thank you so much!
Great job! What grit flap disc did you use?
Thank you, I think it was 80 grit.
👍💓!!!
Does the pith eventually crack bad? Does the oil stop it from cracking? I've done smaller pieces and oil seems to prevent cracking.
I never got the chance to find out. There was an an accident with a football! I repaired it though. You can see the results on my Instagram page. If the wood is very very well seasoned before carving and then oiled straight after it would defiantly reduce the chances of it splitting.
Looks beautiful 👌👌this graff speed cutter does not require sharpening ?
Thank you very much. To be honest I dont know! I have just used it a few times and its still sharp.
@@EamonWalshDIY thank you for your response 😊
Nice work. I'd to know which is the second tool you used to flatten the bowl
I used an angle grinder with a 'Graff Speedcutter' (be very very careful while using this they are dangerous) I then used a flap disc to smooth it out.
Отлично! 💪
Спасибо
Похоже на ясень 👌
Да ты прав.
This music gives me some good rimworld vibes
best part was definitely the dog at the 2:05 mark lol
😂😂 Never noticed it before Mike! She is no longer with us 😡
@@EamonWalshDIY awe dang I’m sorry that sucks. Unrelated to that though- can I ask what type of blade you’re using to cut the bowl out?
@@mikecannon8179It was a graff speed cutter speedcuttergraff.com/
You need your wits about you and safety gear when using it but its good for shaping and carving.
Last time I used something along these lines, it yanked me across the log. It was one of those chainsaw pieces that connects to an angle grinder. Dumb be touched the log across the grain. Chain bit into the log and yanked me hard. ;)
You need you wits about you when using them and also a good two handed grip! 😊
@@EamonWalshDIY Yep. Totally agree. I have since done away with that devil.... ;)
How long did it take you to make this really pretty bowl?
Thank you Frédérique, It took around 4-5 hours if I remember correctly.
Looks great. How long did it take to grind out all that wood??
Thanks Glenn, I think it took about an hour or so.
Awesome video... Do you think the crack at the bottom will expand?
Thanks Alan, if you have a look at my instagram you see what became of it.
Love it. What was the first cutter disc you used. I tried one I got from Amazon and it kicked back like a mule, I was scared to use it again.
Thank you. Yeah that sounds like the one I used. It can be scary at first but you can the hang of it. You do need your wits about you when using it and you need a good grip with both hands and all the safety gear!!

@@EamonWalshDIY thanks for the link, I might still be traumatized! Haha. I’m going to order one of those battery powered mini chainsaw saw deals. Somehow even that seems safer.
@@jonboy8181 😄 I hope so. I never used one of them before, Let me know how you get on with it.
Thank you for the video…. Where can I buy from??
Thanks for watching, unfortunately I do not have any for sale.
Very nice do you have any problems with cracking I’ve been wonting to try making a bowl like you do
Thanks Michael, It was fine until it fell on the ground. It has a nice big crack now. I repaired it with some stitches! You can see the pics on my Instagram.
@@EamonWalshDIY so sorry to hear about that but it’s still a true pec of art Eamon looking forward for more wonderful work sire stay safe and enjoy carving sire
👍🏴
How long did it take to make in real time, it looked very good.
Thank you very much, it took a few hours to complete
Jakiej firmy jest szlifierka ktorej Pan uzywa:) i jakie ma parametry? :) pozdrawiam :)
I used a 115mm hitachi (hikoki) angle grinder
How long did you let this cut of wood dry before you started carving it?
Hi Sarah, it had been drying for about 2 years.
🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
Tack.
Good Video - how long start to finish??
Thanks Stephen, It took a few hours to do.
I've seen so many bowl making videos and it seems everyone uses tools.
I'm starting wonder how people made these things before tools.
I assume they'd have to carve it out, probably with some chisel-esque tool. I highly doubt one could use a knife to carve it out. That'd be like using a spoon to scoop out hard ice-cream. You'd just bend the spoon. I've bent enough spoons to know that'll happen. The only way I've found to get it out is by using a knife or something. Maybe they could do it that way.
Make a hole in the center of the wood, making sure not to go all the way through. Then making diagonal holes, at a slope where the starting point of this diagonal slope is at the bottom of the bowl where the center hole is at and the top of the slope is at the edge of the bowl. Then you use a saw of some sorts that you turn and cut a dome shaped chunk out of the wood.
I suppose that's still be a fairly triangular bowl, so I guess they'd probably use a chisel thing to make it more curvy or something more like a bowl. Then maybe cutting the bottom corners of the bowl a little to give it a curved bottom, then using a rock of some sorts to sand it down.
I don't know how to make bowls, I don't even know if this'll work. It probably will, but maybe won't be very good.
-oh yeah, and I suppose they'd also use a rock to sand down the inside of the bowl.
If I can use a rock to smoothen another rock, I'm sure you can use it to smoothen wood.
Of course, you'd need a strong rock. Which is quite easy to find. It's just hitting a rock against another rock.
You'd also have to find the right kind of wood.
A lot of driftwood or wood you'd find at the beach tends to be quite strong. Typically, if you find it fairly smooth, it's probably pretty strong. Maybe the other wood is stronger, but I don't want to get splinters.
Rubbing a piece of wood against a smooth piece of metal or wood also smooths it out and kind polished it in a way. It's not really polishing, it's just making it very smooth. It makes it feel life soft fabric. That kind of smooth.
It might just depend on the kind of wood though.
The wood I've seen is usually a very pale, sand coloured wood. Sand coloured. Like a very light beige. (I know there are places that have different coloured sand).
Can you list down the equiptment you used in the next video you make. I keep rewinding but it's a little too fast for me.
You will find some of them here. www.instructables.com/member/eamonwalshdiy/
Noice.
Thanks Hollye!
Do you still these bowls?
Wow, what did u use to sand, please?
Hi Boris, I used a flap disc for the main sanding and then a lot of hand sanding!
Super result. 50€ for the blade with chainsaw teeth😅😅.
Thank you.
How long did this take?
It took a couple of hours to make.
Nothing makes me more nervous than someone wearing gloves and long sleeves with an angle grinder. It’s an accident waiting to happen. However the bowl is very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you,
What grit was that flap disc?
I think it was 80 grit.
@@EamonWalshDIY thanks!
Which grinder disc is that ??

Grazie Alessandro.
I’m sorry for my ignorance, I’m a female who doesn’t know much about tools, but what is the tool that you used to carve out the wood, a circular saw?
Hi J D, the tool is an angle grinder like these: www.amazon.com/s?k=4.5+inch+angle+grinder&s=price-asc-rank&qid=1613862790&ref=sr_st_price-asc-rank
It is fitted with a Graff speed cutter to remove the material. The speed cutter can be a bit tricky to use but there are some other similar products available.
@@EamonWalshDIY thank you so much for your response, excellent video, keep up the good work!
@@JD-ry5ui Thank you 😊
2:24 how it sounds when you’re getting dental work
😂😂
its not water right right?
Hi, No its is not water tight but if you needed it water tight you could always epoxy coat it.
What kind of disk is that
Hi Lee, its is a Graff speed cutter disc: speedcuttergraff.com/
Please list all the tools
Did this really only take 6 minutes and 13 seconds to make? Jk. But roughly how long did it take?
Hi Stefanie, it took a little longer 🙂. Altogether it took about 3-4 hour.
How much do you spend on blades? And how much do you sell the bowl for? There is a much cheaper way to do this! This is amateur
🤣🤣🤣
