Two woodturning methods produce the same outcome

- Doing just a few of these large pegs, as production turners we try to adapt and find the quickest way. These two videos show using just one tool then the more orthodox method. It shows that while time was saved roughing out with the skew and not changing tools, time was lost by using the skew instead of the spindle gouge even taking into account of swapping tools. So when doing a batch of these I would rough out using the skew but use the spindle gouge for the cove giving me the most time efficient method. Thanks for watching

Your videos are great! The skill you have, wow, amazing. Please keep making videos, you have a wealth of wisdom.
Thank you
That level of skill with the skew is just mad...
Thank you
Good afternoon sir. I am a wood hobbyist from Indonesia. I hope the good news surrounds you and your family. I really like your expertise, because my hobby is the same as what you do. So every time I have a hobby, I always look at the content on your RUclips account, hoping that I can imitate you and be successful like you. Thank you very much sir, your knowledge is very useful for me.
Thank you
@@woodturner21 Thank you again sir for your knowledge
Instructional and masterful as ever. Always good to see your videos. Thanks Steve! (I'm still working on my skew!!)
Thank you
Proud of you Brother
Thank you
I'm inspired by your work 😊
Thank you
Amazing work--as ever. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you
always nice to watch you work, well done
Thank you
Great job as always Steve! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👍😎JP
Thank you
@@woodturner21 Your very welcome Steve! Have a great week!😎
In one method, I use skew skills you'll never have, and, in the other, I use skew skills you might feasibly achieve, supplemented with a couple gouges.
Lol! But anyone can learn this with patience and a lot of patience.
What a great video! I've been turning bowls for quite a few years and have hardly touched a piece between centers. I won't be able to come close to your expertise but I really needed the reminders on how to approach the project. I wish I had your eye - nice job making 4 pretty much identical pieces.
Thank you
Mr jones , is GOD !
Thank you
Swift and neat. What you did there would take me about 10 mins per peg. Impressive skills.
Thank you
Or a lot longer and they would look nothing alike.
great work as always the second one seemed to be quicker than the first on it seemed to take longer to do the cove with the skew
Yes you are correct as explained in the description. A gouge is the best tool to turn a cove.
Great
Thank you
Wow.
Thank you
I just don't know how you turn a cove like that with a skew chisel...
I could 'come close' to what you do with the gouge, but, the skew...no way.
Minimal sanding: I like it.
I love watching you work.
Thank you.
Steve, I’m a huge fan of your work. I’m trying to practice coves with my skew. It’s hard to tell when you do it if you have any bevel support. In this video as you cut the deeper part of the cove, is your bevel normally supported? Assuming it’s, where is it supported, by the outer rim/edge of the cove? Thank you!
The support is the same as if you are doing a sweep so the bevel is supported and on these tight sweeps you are correct the user rim tends to be where the contact is.
Do I see a quarter millimeter difference? Another fine demo.
Hi Alan, It depends on the temperature 😜😂
Of course. Ha.
What wood is that? How much does it influence the speed i.e. how minimalistic your cuts are? Would you be just as fast with any kind of wood? This was super interesting. I wish you could make videos about planning the best order of tasks and workflow. For example, videos on making handles do not show how to attach the tool blade to the handle. If a hole needs to be drilled, I assume it would be best to start from that, otherwise how to get it straight. Thanks for the great demo!
It is softwood. I turn hardwood exactly the same but obviously the hard exotic timbers do take a few extra passes. Yes drill the hole in the handle is a good way. You can turn first and drill in the lathe. Next time I make a tool handle I will video it.
@@woodturner21 Thanks for the helpful insight. So us mere mortals need not to be discouraged if we need to take those few extra passes. :D
A video on attaching the handle would be helpful. I know that the hole can be drilled afterwards with the lathe, however if the product does not have a tenon, i.e. is fully finished, the big question for me is how to do that without pressure marks on the product. Eventually customized add-ons to my chuck jaws are a possible option, but I am far from that standardized at the moment, experimenting designs.
If you want ideas for much needed videos I suggest discussing that in a video would be great.
Also, how to plan the work so that you do not need to mount and demount and flip several times like I do, being new to the hobby.
I also enjoyed watching the short videos in which you make the furniture legs and finials, and a discussion on design would be useful. Most turners do not show that kind of traditional work with beads and curvatures, and I am curious about how to design in a way that I can also produce rather efficiently. Is there a fool proof design principle to design a piece and then add your own touch on the design, or do the different design eras have their own basic structure that is varied (I assume the latter), in which case it would be great to know when something I create is eclectic and when it follows a certain esthetic tradition. Quite a bunch of ideas thrown here, I hope you continue to make videos (the lean approach without the bells and whistles is great!) and I am really happy I found your channel. Cheers!
I went to click like, but it only has a dislike button? Never seen that before... Anyhow, I liked it.
Thank you I’ve no idea why that happened
👏👏👏 👍🇺🇾
Thank you
This is proof that aliens live among us... No mere mortal can turn a cove with a skew like that! Insanely difficult, but he makes it look easy!
Steve, I know you are not interested in doing a sharpening video as you free hand sharpen, but I am curios as to what grit size your grinder wheel is? That skew bevel has a pretty decent polish on it and is clearly insanely sharp enough to cut your head off just by looking at it!
I use a 180 grit CBN wheel and use the skew straight off the wheel.
More surprised that you roughed out with a spindle roughing gouge that turned the cove with the skew. The question is which do you prefer and Why?
I prefer to rough out small diameters with the skew and larger diameters with the roughing gouge. The roughing gouge is more efficient at removing larger amounts of wood but that’s not required on smaller diameters so it’s quicker for me with the skew on those smaller sections
@@woodturner21 it was do you prefer to cut the cove with the skew or the spindle gouge
A spindle gouge
Steve, what is the bevel on this spindle gouge?
I never measure my angle I grind freehand but it’s appropriately 35 degrees
I'm just curious. What are the RPMs you're turning at?
This was approximately 1650rpm
@@woodturner21 Awesome, thank you!
What is the make and size of this skew chisel and is it available in the uk
Yes it’s an Ashley Iles 1” standard Skew.

@@woodturner21 thanks ,having seen you use the skew it has made me more determined to master it and be less scared ,
Would you recommend a flat section or rounded for a beginner
@@jeanniewake7855 it is a matter of personal choice but a flat skew is easier to learn with IMO
@@woodturner21 thanks

Dust Extractor what do you use for wood turning ? (brand model power ) thanks
