these are the kind of details that are so important and usually skipped over in many presentations (which are often really 'demonstrations' rather than truly educational) very helpful thank you very much
Finally! someone who "presents" their training in a way I can see and understand. If you look on most tutorials, they never really give a good VISUAL illustration of tool placement and tool presentation. Most people just blab about it, Thank You!!!!!!! Not to mention, this is the first and only "kickback" video I found. I thought it was just something that was happening to me. It was seriously causing my moral to plummet! Thanks again, I intend on watching more of these videos.
Eric, Thanks for writing and sharing. We all go through these issues at one time or another. I', glad you found this video and it helped you. Thank you for your kind words. I try to make videos that will truly help my fellow turners. Enjoy and Happy Turning!
Like many here, I've watched more turning videos than I've turned bowls. Many are helpful (some not so much). None of them are as well-crafted teaching presentations as yours. Thank you so much Kent for your accessible blend of knowledge, experience and unselfconscious presentation of this material. The pleasure you take in teaching is very evident and that enriches the feeling in us novices that you really do understand what it means not to understand. As a retired teacher, I can think of no more useful qualification for teaching.
Kent, I just want to say THANK YOU! I’m a retired teacher who is relatively new to turning. You have helped me solve many problems. You deserve some credit for the joy I’m finding in turning. I think you are as good a teacher as you are a turner. Sincerely, Carter
Awesome explanation and very much appreciated! This is exactly what is happening to me!! In fact, when you showed how to "mess up" the bowl bottom it looks just like mine! Thank you so much!
My name is Jeff S. from Clovis, California. If I were chosen to win your contest, I would like to get the tree to wood course (but really any of the 3 is great to me). Thanks for all of the helpful information. I come from more spindle turning and bowls were a hit or miss proposition. You have opened my eyes a lot to better turning. Now that I have retired, I hope to have a lot more time to explore this hobby.
Oh how I wish you put on a hands on class. I have already learned so much valuable information from you just from your videos. I really appreciate them!
Thank you, Brian. Also, check out my Bowl Gouge Mastery course. Your skills will shine very quickly. www.TurnAWoodBowl.com/mastery All the best to you and Happy Turning! Kent
Thanks for the presentation. My first bowls were 12 segment ring bowls, and everything went fine. Then I tried a solid wood bowl and had some rough moments with kickback. Your vid has explained why that happened, and why a segmented bowl is easier - it's because it's basically all long grain, especially as the number of segments is increased.
Wow, thanks! I'm glad you liked this. This issue causes so many headaches, I wanted to share the remedy with everyone! All the best to you and Happy Turning!
@@TurnAWoodBowl at the beginning you always make mistakes and mostly you don't know why. So this is a game changer. Turned two bowls yesterday and without any bad marks etc. Now it's time to look for a good machine where I can turn the head sideways for bigger bowls. Stay safe Regards from beautiful Bavaria.
Thank you so much! Everytime i was wondering those kick backs, why is it doing it and i had no idea how to fix it. But now, this video shows it perfectly clean and simply explained so even i can now learn it :) Again, thank you very much!
I add to Eric’s earlier comment. Well done tutorial. I broke two large bowls b/c of poor bottom out technique. I believe this will help. Can’t wait to practice
I pay extremely close attention to the things you teach, you've helped me tremendously. I just turned a bowl that was roughed out many months ago. Everything was going well but had 3 or 4 kickbacks no matter how careful I am. The last kickback sheared off my tenon just as I was doing final light passes. I had no way to turn it again to finish it off properly. So I sanded by hand inside and out. Small ridges still in there. Very frustrating.
Thanks, I just watched it. Since I do not have a good bowl jam, I was trying to make the tenon as close to a finished look with a hollowed out circle. I think that made the chucks grip weaker and it broke into the 1/2” tenon. I’ll look through your videos for finishing the base of bowls. I appreciate all of your helpful videos. I’m loving this hobby!
Thanks so much for this video. Couldn’t figure out why this was happening at the bottom of a bowl I’m working on. Noticed it kicks back more frequently with a steeper angle of the inside curve of a bowl.
Great content, information. Your delivery of the how and why really sets you apart. Others post “watch me” content, you post And deliver real information, the application and techniques, it makes sense. Thanks, we appreciate it ! 👍
Kent, you are such a great teacher! Thanks so much. I consider you my bowl turning mentor. I keep coming back with more questions and between your videos and written instructions you help me figure it out.
these are the kind of details that are so important and usually skipped over in many presentations (which are often really 'demonstrations' rather than truly educational) very helpful thank you very much
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Turning!
The best explanation on kick back that i have seen so far. Thank you Kent
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Turning!

I couldn’t agree more. Rafsanjani is a famous guy, but your instruction is superior.
Learnt a lot from a good teacher! Thank you.
You are welcome, Heinz! Thank you, and Happy Turning!
Kent, you're the best. As a new turner I am so glad I found you. Thank you.
Another clear, helpful lesson. Thank you!

I think this explanation is the best I have seen on kick-backs - super job and thank you for sharing!
I usually don't mess around with this kind of thing but knowing your personality how could I not. Thank you Sir.

Kent does a great job of explaining what he is teaching. As a lathe novice, his advice and experience is invaluable.

So glad to help. All the best to you and Happy Turning!
Had a lot of kick backs when I first started and now seeing this, it all makes sense to why I had them issues.
Awesome Gonzalo Yay for ah-ha moments. Happy Turning!
Thank you! The best explanation I have seen!

Great! Glad to help
I had one kick back today and it broke off at the chuck tenon. Here to learn!
Yup, we all have to go through those learning lessons. Be sure to see my videos about the tenon also. Happy Turning!
Thanks, I just watched it. Since I do not have a good bowl jam, I was trying to make the tenon as close to a finished look with a hollowed out circle. I think that made the chucks grip weaker and it broke into the 1/2” tenon. I’ll look through your videos for finishing the base of bowls. I appreciate all of your helpful videos.

Enjoy your well articulated and instructive videos. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
