    I really like the overall look of this bowl. The outside profile is a nice change from what I normally see. Maple is always a wonderful wood and this piece didn’t disappoint. Thanks for the turning.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад

      Thank you JD! I do like the profile as well. It can become very easy to just cut the outside like the bowls we are used to. With excellent grain that works.
      Thanks for your comments they are much appreciated.

    I haven't turned Maple in a while. I had forgotten how subtly beautiful it can be. Nice job. It certainly is a pretty little bowl. Cheers, Rick

      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад

      Thank you Rick. I do like Maple a lot. I just got through going through some of my wood. Sadly I had some Norway Maple that cracked real bad. I took it to the bandsaw and cut strips for it. Looks like some nice segment stock.

    Very cute bowl Gary. I like the shape of the bowl real well. It’s just a little different and eunique. A nice gentle change from the usual. Thanks for the good tip on how to start the gouge when starting a cot in the middle and working out to the edge. Tips are always appreciated. Thanks for your time. Appreciate it

    Boy, that bark gave you a hard time for awhile, Gary! But, you tamed it and now you have a great looking live edge bowl! Good job, buddy! I bet it's hot down there, huh? Near 90 here but rain by Monday, I think. Take good care, my friend and I'll see you next time! 😊

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад +1

      Thanks Phil. Yeah when you have one edge dip way down it can get tricky. That said the next two have the same issue LOL.
      Yes it sure did get hot. Matter of fact I think next weeks video talks about the heat. It reached 97 degrees and I was nowhere near the shop. I got busy and got a few weeks ahead so I should have mentioned the date I was turning. But I do have some funny things happen you can watch for LOL.
      Only 91 right now and cool weather coming.
      See ya buddy!

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад +1

      Thank you very much Jon. I think it has a lot to do with having a convex shape and a concave shape. How the light plays with it.

      Thank you very much Michael. A few years ago my wife was looking for some shavings for one of her garden areas.
      I did not have any so I chucked up a piece of wood and just turned it into shavings. I do love watching them peel off LOL. It is also good practice.

    Lovely bowl Gary. Reall nice turning. Interesting about the chatoyance around the knots. You also find chatoyance on crotch pieces especially where one of the branches has compressed the timber.
    I really enjoy watching your videos so please keep them coming.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад

      Thank you very much Greg. We seem to avoid knots in flat work but sort of look forward to some in the turnings. They sure can add a lot. I just finished a turning that had a knot they gave me fits. But it sure left and interesting look in the end. It will be an upcoming Cherry turning.

    @tuffymartinez 4 месяца назад +1

    Thank You Gary, Thank You Bob...Nice turning this morning. Watching I saw a small bit of tear out that seems to just be something Maple always seems to have. I have had trouble with this in the small amount of Maple work I have done. You sanded all out very nicely (I had a terrible time sanding my tear outs out!) I do not see that so much on other woods? Until next time Gary.... TM

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад

      Thank you TM. I think the tear out can be worse on a smaller tree where the growth rings are wider. And yes maple can be bad for that. I just did some Cherry that was really hard to sand out.

  • @BAILEYWOODWORKS
    @BAILEYWOODWORKS 4 месяца назад +1

    Really nice Gary. When I have turned Maple it is a love hate relationship. Usually the side grain is beautiful, but parts of the end grain just doesn't sand and looks "dirty". It is one of the best woods to turn without tear out though. Great looking finish as always!

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад

      Thank you Chris. Oh I know what you mean about how the end grain can look.
      I do find if it is not as dry as we like it can be an issue. I just finished a piece of cherry I thought I would never get the way I wanted. After using DNA on the ends I finally got it. Funny it was only on the inside that gave me issues.

    Just a suggestion I've used a diamond point carbide to get a line on where I can start from on difficult pieces. Especially when trying to make a live edge piece of work. It's also my go to for my Cherry Burl work. Being mostly blind in one Eye it makes it more easily to see from where I start a line from. Everyone sees beauty's in their own way ❤.

      You can do the same thing with a parting tool And I have shown that a few times. I understand your reasoning for doing it.
      One thing about doing it with the gouge it helps to gain tool control.

    Really nice bowl Gary! I wish I could get some of the bark to stay on my turnings down here. I’ve had some success when I turned them immediately after they fell but the drying process here is not kind to the bark.

      Thank you Jim. Might be when the tree was cut down. The best time is the dormant time of year.

      Thank you Jane. No I did not change the camera. I do try and cover the window behind me because it can mess things up. Lighting is such a tricky thing.
      Did you not that everything seemed better or certain areas? I am trying to get them as good as I can.
      Thanks again,

    Great video from a technical perspective, too, Gary! Perhaps that might be a future video topic?? What camera and lighting do you use? How are you holding the camera? What editing software do you use? Audio... Do you use a mic during recording? Even just seeing your lathe from a studio perspective might be appreciated??
    Have a great weekend and thanks for video.

      Thank you David. I think it is a good idea showing my setup and will try to plan something out.
      I do not use a seperate mic but have thought about it. I use the mic built into the camera and it can take a bit of editing to not have things too loud.
      Thanks for the suggestion,

    Gary, how much room do you have in your home for your wife to display all your bowls? There must be a ton of room since everything you turn, she displays on a shelf. That's a strong testament she loves your work, as well as many of your subscribers, including me.

    Morning Gary, beautiful little maple bowl! What type of sealer do you use, it is a shellac based one? Thanks, Mike

      Good afternoon for you Mike but morning for me.
      Yes it is a shellac based sanding sealer. Zinsser Seal Coat. I will use it at times even when spraying lacquer.

    I have a question about your sanding in reverse. Does your chuck have a setscrew in it to prevent it from backing off? I can't recall you mentioning it.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад +1

      Yes it does have a set screw for turning or sanding in reverse. When I am actually turning in reverse I have mentioned it.
      Thanks for asking and I will try and mention it more.

    I have a small wood lathe and on it says that it goes from 800-3000 rpm which is confusing to me since in a lot of videos people are saying that they are doing it at 400-600 rpm
    Am I missing something or labels on my lathe are just wrong?

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  4 месяца назад +1

      Hi Luka,
      So a lot of the larger lathes have an infinite variable speed. This can be adjusted on the fly.
      Mine will go from around 50-3500 RPM.
      It is run off of a VFD on a 3 phase motor and that is why you can adjust it.
      Even on a smaller lathe that has that adjusting feature it may not have enough torque to turn something much slower than the 800 you mention.
      Which lathe do you have I can check it out if you like.

      That makes sense what you wrote...
      Since I was always trying to run it at lowest speed (800) since everyone in videos were mentioning 400-600rpm and my lowest was already much higher.
      I was struggling a lot since was always just getting catches and wasn't making any progress with wood
      Then I tried putting speed at 100-1200 and it was going much better, with a lot less catching (tho with some vibrations sometimes)
