    Those are wonderful lathes , I had just this same model some years ago....but on mine , I had to put a mirror on the wall behind it , so I could see what speeds I was turning at .when needed they hadn't moved it to the front yet. Great turning demo !

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. It amazes me the patronising comments, mansplaining and back seating that women turners seem to get. I mean you’re literally an apprentice of one of the best professional turners left out there. Seems like commenters don’t do their homework before typing.

    Good video. I do things a little differently. When making entry cuts, I like to do so with the flute of the gouge in the closed position, which reduces kickback and catches on entry, then as the cut starts open the flute. When starting a turn as you did, I do so with the blank mounted between centres with what will be the bottom of the bowl towards the tailstock, and start my cuts and shaping the outside from the tailstock to the headstock. This reduces the need to flatten off the top or bottom, or even having to round the blank as you're removing that material anyway & gets the blank into balance sooner, and having to make two holding points, but most importantly removes me from having to be positioned in the line of fire if the blank, or bits of it were to come loose and be shrapnel. It also allows me to move the blank if needed for a better shape or to remove defects. Tailstock in place is always a good idea like you did for security, at least until a piece has the weight removed, and is in balance. Thanks for sharing, I've subscribed as well.

      I am using Stuart Batty handles and a some of his tools, some sorby, mahoney, oneway. I put the tool in an SB bolster and it can screw onto any handle. His tool line is on pause but should be up and running soon. I haven't used Ashley's tools but Stuart's are definitely worth the cost!

      It's from Stuart Batty's tool line and I got it at Woodworkers Emporium (which is closed now). Stuart is going to start making tools again soon though. But, you can just take any scraper and grind 20 degrees on each side to make a negative rake scraper!

    Nice video, but i need to ask a question, in the first 3 minutes or so the bottom side is flatted with some sheercutting, why? What i do is to flatten the area where the bottom of the bowl will be, not more because that will be turned away anyway. A nice rough bowl it is!! Keep turning and filming!!

      I'm not sure if I understand your question but in the beginning of the video, I even out the face of the bowl so I can cut an even recess. I then flip it over and attached the blank by the recess so I can them remove the tailstock to turn the bottom and outside of the bowl. Hope that answers your question!

    Very informative step by step video with great descriptions of the process and of your techniques. My only suggestion would be to always wear the proper safety equipment when turning. You were not wearing a face shield in the beginning of the video, then later you were not wearing safety glasses and your face shield was not in place, so you were totally unprotected. Also, you should refrain from wearing jewelry or a wrist watch when turning. I say these not to criticize but to help you teach your viewers good safety practices. I commend you for a well produced and informative video. Thank you!
