    As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement ruclips.net/user/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!

    One thing you didn't mention that a router can do that no lathe can, is to make bowls any shape. If you use a template you can create similar bowls any shape you like, not just round!

    If you cut a U shape in the wood before you glue things up you avoid having to hog out and waste all the wood in the center. As a bonus you could use the waste piece to make another bowl. Depending on how tall you want the sides on the first bowl you could probably get at least three bowls out of the one block of wood.

    Hi Nick, Found you from a recommended list on YT and I'm so glad I did.
    Brilliant video.
    I have a lathe that will allow me to turn 16" bowls over the bed rails and bigger if I turn outboard but this is a brilliant idea which I will copy.
    I will be looking at you cutting board videos as it is something I want to get into.
    I have subbed and hit the bel
    Take care Nick.
    Cheers, from the UK, Huw

    I think reusing the wood chips in resin would really look cool for a bowl or cup and other things. Especially with all those different colors of wood chips in there.

    It is great to see an alternative to turning bowls on a lathe. I really like the idea of using segments combined with other glue ups.

    @MrJesseLY 2 года назад +14

    I love this video. I learned SO much. After a few tries, I finally got a bowl I am happy with. One shortcut that I found worked for me was to use double stick tape to hold the bowl down, making sure to tape both the bowl area and the outer excess area. Then I routed the inner ring to its final depth, followed by the outer ring all the way through to a piece of scrap wood. That saved the step of cutting off the excess part with a bandsaw (or jigsaw, in my case). It also saved the cleanup with a flush trim bit on the outside of the bowl. The double stick tape held perfectly. .

    Love this video, especially the tip about the backwards miter gauge.
    As far as sanding the segments, caution should be taken not only to preserve the angle, but the width of the segment as well. Honestly, the angle is easier to protect than the width by sanding on a good flat base. But removing the width will prevent the ring from matching up in a way that can't be recovered. This is especially true if it happens over multiple pieces.

    Want to make life a little easier? Use the dust collection attachment for that plunge base and drill a few holes in the newly fabricated clear base [sled] that is used to "hog" out the center material [around the 20 min mark]. You can use a shop vac or your D.C. system. It'll clean as you go, saving some time and make things just "easier" because you can see what you're doing. Excellent How To video. Thank you!!

    Wow!! These are beautiful and I love how well you explain step by step the different options and actually show the process as you go through making them. I have a 10 year old son with severe adhd and mild autism and we started going to the kids workshops at home depot awhile back and my cousin and her son went with us one time and her son (he's 3 year older than my son) said to me that he's never seen my son so focused on anything ever. And I noticed the same thing. He was just right into it and I totally subscribed to your channel just show my son the amazing things he could make if he wants to really get into woodworking. We made nightstands at school when I was in junior high and I still have mine. I have no idea if they'll be teaching this stuff when he gets to that level in school but I sure hope so.
