Nice job, Mike. I like the slight distortion as it dried. And many thanks for the Art of Turned Bowls plug.
Your books are like your kids. All different and hard to say you like one more than another but I would likely not have turned this shape had I not read your book - multiple times.
It sure was nice seeing the streams/ribbons of wood coming off the chisels. Great job
Thank you very much!
Nice turn Mike. Your wife must laugh when you hear chain saws and start to run to windows and doors to find out where the sound is coming from 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Take care my friend
Cheers
Harold
You got that right!
Really a great project between you all and just how different each bowl turns out. 👍🇺🇸
Thanks. Next 4 Ways project May 1.
That looks pretty darn good! I like the deep trumpet look.
Thanks!
Thanks for another great video Mike.
My pleasure, Doug.
Nicely done. Really enjoying the 4 way.
More to come!
Great looking bowl...love how it warped slightly!
Thanks, Carol. I think a wide rim bowl is perfect for showing up the warkping on a once turned bowl.
I really like this series Mike, thnx for participating! 😎
It has been fun!
I'm really enjoying these videos. It is not only instructive to see the different design approaches you are each taking, it is also very interesting to see the different techniques each of you use throughout the turning. My guess is that if each of you were to turn the same design of some object, your techniques would be quite different as well. The distortion from drying really made this piece unique.
Awesome, thank you!
nine looking bowl
Nice design, Mike. Working with green wood and finishing the bowl was pretty cool in how it changed its shape over a couple of weeks. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 👍
Love the 4 way! A great design and props to highlighting Richard’s book. You’re a gentleman and craftsman.
Thank you kindly!
I really like the shape of this bowl. The wide sweep of the rim is beautiful. And the color and figure of the sweet gum is very nice. I watched Sam's entry and his is good too, although very different. Both are very good. Looking forward to seeing the entries of Tamislav and Richard. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Glad you like it, Glen!
Great shape and that gum has some lovely color 😊
Thanks so much 😊
Really enjoy this 4 way series! Beautiful piece of wood with very nice grain ….. Your design took that beautiful piece of wood and made it even bette! Now I need to check in on the other three artisans 👍🤠
Glad you enjoy it!
A great set of four videos. Thank you, Dave
Glad you like them!
Beautiful design and great character in that piece Mike. I'm enjoying watching the four of you, listening and learning. Interesting how each of you decide and build on the design of your pieces. Thanks for sharing!
Take care, Dave
Many thanks!
Thanks for the demo. I'll try your chalk trick to mark numps..
Thanks for taking time to provide feedback!
Очень красивая сырая чаша! Ее потом изогнет, но от этого она станет ещё белее привлекательной!
Спасибо вам. Красиво деформируется.
very nice vidseo, i really like to see how wood moves as it dries
Thanks 👍
Great concept. I like the beads. Thanks
Glad you like them! Straight from Richard's book.
Very beautiful bowl Mike.
Thank you very much! Sounds like my first bowl. My instructor walked away and I got the wide rim way too thin with a knife like edge.
Lovely bowl Mike.....very attractive piece of timber! 👍
I think so too! I have had more rough turned sweet gum bowls crack than most other woods. I held my breath for a week while it was drying. 😃
Well done Mike.
To all of you;
Many of us are enthusiastic amateurs who turn as a hobby not for an income. We also have limited resources, eg no vacuum chuck, as professionals you have access to a wide range of gouges and chucks. Would you consider using, say 4 or 6 tools on a future project?
That would be more than probably any of us use on a project!
Nice job, like the looks and the wood
Glad you like it
like it alot and nice work I just hope my wife dont see it I have enough projects going on Thanks Mike
Fingers crossed!
Beautiful piece of wood, and elegant design. I was expecting a little thicker 'Twice' turned, so was surprised to see you close to finish thickness. I hope it did not move too much. Thanks Mike. Happy Easter for next week.
Thank you very much! You can see some warping in the thumbnail picture. It just adds a bit of interest.
I enjoyed the video, Mike. I like how you use the profile templates. I recently read "The Art of Turned Bowls" by Richard Raffan, and he suggested creating profile templates. Would you consider creating a video on how you create and use them?
I'll check it out!
G’day Mike,
Wow another completely different design and training video. I’ve been following you for years and love your work and teaching style.
Great bowl.
Are the 4 of you planning to have a group discussion on the finished 4 projects. You all must have differing views on design and ways of approaching turning. This critique would be fantastic. I’ve enjoyed all 4 of the turnings
Thanks
We had not planned on doing that but sounds like a great idea.
The point of the 4-Ways videos is show four different approaches to designing and making a given project. I think we've done a reasonably good job regards that, so I'm wondering what more you'd hope to get from a critique.
Beautiful designed bowl, Mike. I am enjoying watching how all four of you handle the same projects, but differently. Did I see evidence of Ambrosia beetle? Do they attack woods other than maple? We don’t have A.B. on the West Coast.
I am not sure what causes the uneven color in sweet gum, Valerie. But it is not a beetle as there are none of the characteristic holes.
I really like that design. I like turning it wet also. I have a question concerning the antique oil. How durable is it when used on bowls that are actually used for food service? TIA
Probably no better than any hardening oil finish like Mahoneys Walnut Oil Finish.
Hi Mike, I continue to enjoy your videos and learn a lot from them! A question about the Powermatic lathes .. I have the 3520b, and wonder if you ever slide the headstock back (after removing the tailstock) to make turning the inside of a bowl a little easier on our aging backs --it seems it would be easier that way, because you could stand at the end of the lathe, and not have to lean over the ways. Appreciate any thoughts on this...Thanks!
Yes and yes. I sometimes move the HS on larger bowls or when I am hollowing more than one. Works great.
Mike -- I like the shape of the bowl (and the coloring of that wood is spectacular). It reminds me of my very first bowl. The difference is I ended up with that shape by accident rather than design. I took a 4-hour introduction to woodturning class at the Woodcraft in Tucson and I was paying so much attention on the bevel that I didn't see how get the shape I wanted! I ended up with a nice decorative, but not very functional, bowl.
Thanks, David. The design is inspired by one in Richard Raffan's book. My first bowl was also a wide rim bowl but it had a knife edge as I got carried away.
Hello, I am turning a chess set now and I am wondering if There would be any problems with just using 1 type of wood for both colors of pieces, but dyeing the black pieces,
I dyed the dark pieces with all 3 sets I turned. No problem.
Did you get yourself a 2nd Laguna lathe? I’m thinking about getting an 1836 or 2436 and am wondering how they compare to the One Way and Powermatic lathes.
No, my big lathe is a PM3520 Anniversary model which was painted black. Get the best you can afford. Laguna makes a nice lathe. Is it a Powermatic? No. The Laguna1836 weighs 427 lb compared to more than 700 for my PM. But it costs almost half as much.
I notice you use that laguna lathe more than the powermatic
I was noticing that as well....
That is his anniversary edition Powermatic 3520C he's using in this video. Both of his lathes are black. The two lathes can be difficult to tell apart. One of the key visual differences is the location of the controls. On the Laguna, the controls are at the top of the headstock. On the PM, the controls are lower down.
@@DKWalser You are correct. I went back and watched and it is the powermatic
And it weighs 700 lbs!
Hi Mike, Another great video. It was interesting to see how the vacuum chuck pulled the water out of the wood. One question. At around 11:00 and later you were using a larger negative rake scraper. What are the top and bottom angles and the included angle? It looked like it did a good job for you. I have watched your videos you did on negative rake scrapers but this grind seemed to look somewhat different, I think. Please advise. Thanks, Myles
NRSs have a wid range of acceptable angles. I would shoot for between 50 and 70 degrees included angle. This scraper was so thick as a conventional scraper that I did not want to spend all of that time grinding it to look like skew. the I just took some off the top.
