Very nice work. I like the fact that you explain what you are doing while turning. I use most woodturning videos as learning resources being a relatively new woodturner.
They are both beautiful finished bowls! I would be very proud of both! Every bowl is different, has a different purpose etc and so each would ask for its own finish / shine. I find the wood itself generally dictates what it wants to be and how it wants to look and feel too! Keep up the beautiful work and explanations too please Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊
I agree with you absolutely, the wood lets you know what it wants to be. Thank you for your comments. I enjoy sharing my advice keeping in mind that I feel it is worth just as much as I charge for it. ;0)
@@sandysvintagewoodshop1440 Definitely! People like your self and lots of other I also follow are an invaluable source of information for everyone interested! 😁👍
You're doing great with the level of talk - as well, I appreciate the deprecating humor - It's good to see what a worker lies and doesn't, or a mistake. I'm here to learn. That's a lovely bowl too - the shop must have smelled great while working it.
Your descriptions of what you are doing and why are both valuable and educational. In common with many of your viewers I am here to learn. In regard to the finish on the bowl, I agree with your wife. I prefer the matte finish on cedar. I like a shiny finish on hard woods. The bowl is lovely though, and would look good dull or shiny. Thank you for showing us your process.
Such beautiful wood. I think the constant talking is valuable and gives both a sense of what you are thinking / doing at each stage and why, but also its way friendlier. Other videos with no talking and just music are quite sterile, kind of unfriendly. Also the shiny finish was way better in my opinion too. Thanks for coming back with a great video
Awesome I'm working a couple pieces of red cedar right now. Absolute incentive on the finish. Difference being everything is hand sanded at a low rpm. For me, this video came along at the right time.thanks.
Explaining your design intentions, and how you deal with issues and problems that arise are very important to me. During standard tool use, most comments are interesting but not absolutely necessary, in my opinion. This is not the case this applying finishes. I can't tell you how many videos I've watched, wondering just what products were used, sometimes wanting to try them and other times to avoid their use! All in all I did not feel you talked too much. Like most turners, I prefer the shinny finish. Two very beautiful bowls! Keep up the excellent work, I'm looking forward to your next video!
Thank you. I had the same idea concerning explainations during standard tool use but then some comments point out that we can't depend on a standard experiential base.
Nice bowls, love both finishes but in my opinion shiny is best. Commentary, for us newbies, is best as we use the knowledge to get better. The videos with no chat or (really offputting) music are OK but figuring out the details such as which tool is being used or what finish is applied can be a challenge. Also the little exras like using epoxy putty or glue and shavings to fill in cracks etc, its all a big learning curve. Thanks for sharing and I'll be subscribing.
It may have been a mistake on the mounting, but I must disagree! This piece is astounding! This is going to be true art!! I can predict people just staring at this huge beauty for L--O--N--G minutes! BTW, I love your compass; solid wood! OK, I never saw anyone use hot-melt like this --good job!
Thank you very much brother! The only thing better than looking at it is picking it and up touching it. I'm a retired school teacher and that compass was one I used to draw circles on black boards with chalk. Shows you that thing is an antique. The hot melt I've been doing for years and it has never failed. Stay tuned.
Nice bowl. Please; describe what you are doing as you are doing it. That helps everyone. I like both types of finish. I think you got the right finish on each bowl. Also, change the music at the beginning. Sounds like we are going into a news feed. I almost turned it off at that point.
Yes I did! I had a really crazy personal doctor back in the day that I ended up building three coffins for. They were kind of cool. Thanks for sopping by.
I did this one a little differently than normal. Typically I have the blank mounted on the chuck with a woodworm screw and just slap the waste block on and clamp iron with the live center. I don't want that hole at the bottom... it just might show up later!
@@sandysvintagewoodshop1440 agreed Sandy you can also do what i said in reverse an sand the nipple from your masterpeice its just one wayto centralise perfect 👍all the best matey
Very nice work. I like the fact that you explain what you are doing while turning. I use most woodturning videos as learning resources being a relatively new woodturner.
Thank you very much for the compliment. I have decided to do a very detailed video or a series on all of the aspects of turning.
First time watching one of your videos. I like the commentary and look forward to more. Great job!
Stunning bowls! Definitely the perfect amount of talking for me. Ima beginner and I appreciate all the help I can glean 😊.
At one point in time we were all beginners, we all remain learners. thank you for the comment.
Commentary is much appreciated! It is needed, thanks.
Glad it was helpful! I enjoy doing that.

Much appreciated, I'm still learning too. The shop smelled like the first day of school when all of the new pencils got sharpened.

Wow, thank you Deirdre. That is an interesting point you made about the differences in woods and finishes. We are all here to learn... including me.
Each finish has its own place
They do. thank you.
I really like your amount of talk on this video - thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
nice work there, I enjoyed both finishes,
Thank you! Cheers!

I have not worked with cedar before... but considering how this one worked out, it won't be the last. I'm glad the video helped.

nice to meet you, as a newbe ,i will enjoy your output , Bryan McCabe, aka, Woodbutcher
Thanks and welcome... wood butchery is something with which I am very familiar.
I like the glossier finish and your commentary
Thank you.
Beautiful work Sandy. I prefer you explaining what you are doing over silence. Lisa and I both like the shiny finish the best.
Yes! Thank you! My preferences as well. Thanks for reaching out.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bowl turned and finished quite that way before. Interesting.
I'm glad you were entertained.
Please keep the explanation. I'd be lost without it!
Can’t have you getting lost, I will carry on. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the validation Colin, I will continue pointing out the "little extras."

I like the way you did video I also like shiny finish bowls are beautiful but I am not brave enough to turn something that jagged
That one was a little intimidating Lorrie, I like the brighter finish as well.
Give the Srarbond brown a try. It blends in better than the black. I do not use the black any more.
Thanks for the suggestion, I give it a try.
I like them both. May I vote twice?
Consider it done Archie. Thanks for both of them.
Beautiful, artistic work. Did you flash a coffin in the intro???
Yes I did! I had a really crazy personal doctor back in the day that I ended up building three coffins for. They were kind of cool. Thanks for sopping by.
Both finishes are nice, but I preffer the glossier one,
Thanks Michael. Me too.
shine sells but i prefer a dull soft finish, whatever you prefer ,
Agreed. My wife prefers a Matt finish. She insists that shiny looks “plastic”
if you like shine thats fine,ceramic wood be a better bet, sorry about the wood pun ! Bryan
Please keep the explanation narrative for us newbies
I will. Thank you.
When i make a waste block i turn it with a nipple and my blank i drill a hole the exact size so to glue up spot on

All the best to you as well brother. Thank for reaching out. We are all here to learn.@@vinimarshall7301
Keep talking, professor. 😂
Will do, I'm glad it's useful.
I prefer the 2nd finish
Me too. I my mind the other doesn't look "finished."
Keep talking, if we don’t like it we can always mute.😊
This is classic! My wife laughed right out loud when I read your comment to her and thought it was a great idea. Thank for reaching out.
Sandy
please keep talking as it is instructional and allows us to know the "why" of many of the steps you perform.
i like the shiny finish better
Thanks for the reassurance. I will continue to narrate.
Prefer shinny finish.
Me too... but you know the ole saying, happy wife, happy life. Some are going to be something other than shiny. thanks for stopping by.
Talk please 😊 gracias
I will! De nada.
