Finished turning natural edge ash bowl # part two

MY BLOG.robbiethewoodtu... all here is the second video of wet turning a natural edge bowl from ash.
I have put the bowl in a bucket of washing liquid for 5 days to soak.. I then left it to dry a little for 1 day put it back on the lathe for finishing
Hers my toughs on this process.
use yellow washing liquid green discolours the wood
its is a brilliant way of getting a finish on difficult woods.There was some movement in the bowl but not enough to cause cracking.
The bowl has dried now and is in the house no cracking it was turned from green on 17 march 2 of April today and it is dry except the bark it is a little soft
you can only use oil or wax for finishing as the washing liquid causes problems with the finish

Robbie,
That natural edge bowl turned out beautiful. I have never heard of this technique but found it very interesting. Thank you for the demonstration and explanation.
Regards,
Bob

Excellent video Robbie, you explained what you were doing very clearly, and finished up with a gorgeous bowl. Great job my friend.
Take care
Mike

Your "soap" bowl turned out great Robbie! I never thought about a turned-in rim with a natural edge. I really like it... yeah, I might have to "borrow" that idea :) Well done!
Have a good one, Kevin

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Kevin
Take care Robbie

That is a beautiful piece, Your always trying different shapes and sizes. It is always a pleasure to watch you turn. Please keep sharing your videos there fun to watch and a great way to learn and try new projects.
I have turned a small bowl with side's going strait up natural edge and it was a different shape for a bowl for me. I"ll have to try one like yours where it rolls over the top a little bit. Again a very nice piece. Thank you.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks glad you enjoyed the video
All the best Robbie

[@bahri568]

Thanks,Alfonso
All the best Robbie

[@Tide12NC]

Truly great work. But sometimes I’d take a warped bowl over perfect. You put great detail in your work. I just turn by eye and stop when I’m happy with it. But truly like the extra effort you go through to make it right. Good video 👍🏻

[@DaveBardin]

Robbie I do learn so much from each of your videos.
Keep them coming.
Please

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Dave
All the best Robbie

[@jasturbo02]

Another excellent video Robbie! I enjoy each one! I'll have to try this at home. Looking forward to your next video!

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

thanks for watching Jason
regards Robbie

[@jasturbo02]

Robbiethewoodturner BTW, what's the purpose of the wood on top of your tool rest ? To reduce chatter/vibrations?

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

it was on it for a negative rake scraper to keep it level on another project just haven't removed it at that time

[@kirkdavies5392]

great job and the technique is certainly something I'll try. Thanks for making the video.
Cheers
Kirk

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

you are welcome glad you enjoyed it

[@dandiy4958]

Excellent!! I really learned about the tip on the soap soak process. The tool you used with the adjustable neck is a cool tool. Great finish and bowl design. Thanks for the lesson.Cheers to you!

[@CarlJacobson]

Beautiful bowl Robbie, Thanks for sharing I'll give this another try with some hard wood. I really like the profile tool you used.
Take care, Carl

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

thanks Carl,
that hollowing tool is excellent i have it 3 years now cant fault it
All the best Robbie

[@nippychippy]

[@scottmartin9287]

Nice bowl Robbie, I really like how the shape turned out.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Scott
Take care,Robbie

[@mrlacroft]

Just a beautiful shape to the bowl. might have to try the soapy water trick. Thank you very much.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks for watching
All the best Robbie

[@chasfield7060]

That's come out really well Robbie and a beautiful shape. I'll have to try the soaking in washing up liquid.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

thanks Chas you get a great finish with it
All the best Robbie

[@Brykl1]

Vaše videa jsou inspirující, děkuji za ně

[@baconsoda]

This is another brilliant video Robbie. You're going to see shares in washing up liquid makers going through the roof now. I was somewhere recently and saw 5 litre containers of washing up liquid for small money but I forget where it was. I'll ask my wife, she'll know.
Best Wishes, Brendan.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Brendan the washing up liquid can be bought in the same shop as the Moss peat lol
All the best Robbie

[@jojones7396]

Lovely finish Robbie! I'd never heard of doing anything like this before, but I might pluck up courage and give it a go. I've just been given a chunk of green pear so I could do that. I'll let you know how it goes!
Thanks again, Robbie, take care.
Jo

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Jo defendant worth a try on Pear as you know it cracks like crazy
All the best Robbie

[@TirolerDrechsler]

Ganz tolles Video Robbie!!!
Die Schüssel hat eine schöne Form gute Arbeit.
Und noch was die Vase im Hintergrund cooool. :-)
Gruß Tiroler Drechsler ;-)

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

thanks you have a sharp eye i might do a video on that vase
All the best Robbie

[@jtate2546]

Great job, thanks for the video. Jim

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

thanks Jim

[@williamnixon11]

Great bowl I think I will give it a try Thanks Robbie

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks William
Take care,Robbie

[@GreenArrows0705]

I like it Robbie! Glad it worked for you. I thought that I could see some warping after you had used the heat gun to dry the surface for sanding. Let us know how it does over time. I think it should make it just fine! Good job!
Cheers, Brett

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Brett i did move but no more than usual
All the best Robbie

[@MiguelSancheztornoartesano]

Just amazing, I definetly have to tray it.
Thanks for sharing Robbie.
Take care, Miguel

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Miguel you get a excellent finis whit it
All the best Robbie

[@AlFurtado]

Great tip Robbie I have seem many tutorial but had not heard of this technique
As a new turner this is a great tip maybe it will allow me to actually dry a bowl out before finishing it........... maybe NO MORE WARPED BOWLS for me LOL
take care
Albert

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Albert this possess is around a long time and has worked for so many outer turners hope you have some success with it
it is excellent for getting a finish on bowls
All the best Robbie

[@bnphisey]

Thank you for the great information!

[@tammycornell1985]

Beautiful

[@StephenOgle]

This is so cool Robbie, I can't wait to try some experiments with this method. Great work.

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Stephen its great for getting a finish on difficult woods
All the best,Robbie

[@Wayfarer-Sailing]

Thanks again Robbie

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

you are welcome :-)
All the best Robbie

[@MrSkeeter18]

Very nice. Thanks

[@DHKillian]

Go raibh maith agat Robbie! Great job.

[@stringmanipulator]

Excellent work as always Robbie, thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent.
This soaking in 50/50 water / dish soap, is that only for fresh timber? or can you use it on lets say a log that has been outside for a year or so? ... you have a good one :)

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

i have used it on beach wood that had benign lying out back for 3 years it worked a treat
you get a excellent finish it cuts like soap Harley any sanding
All the best,Robbie

[@thestutteringwoodturner9824]

robbie ive wanted to do a natural edge bowl but i dont have a blank and r u doing ok? your hands are shaking just wondered. just remember God loves u, God bless. chris

[@raztuss]

Nice Job, looks cool,Thanks for sharing gives me a good idea on a few things.I'm just learning and need to do a lot more practice on tool work. I did subscribe also, gonna check the rest of your vid's out.=)

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

raztuss Thanks for watching and subscribing enjoy the videos

[@twosticker]

Very Nice Robbie. What kind of a scrapping tool was that. I couldn't here you on the video.
Matt

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Hi Mat its a set of Munro hollowing tools
All the best Robbie

[@TimRhodes]

Sorry to comment on an old video, but I missed what the liquid mixture is and what it's purpose is. Thanks.

[@eduardopetters4324]

I'll try some wood ipe I have, since the microwave formed cracks. I had thought up in cooking them, something like what laminators do, but it would generate a higher cost. Just one question: this shell is not loose over time, or to dry the wood?
Regards
Eduardo

[@Robbiethewoodturner]

Thanks Eduardo the bark was fine and has not come loose
i think some wood are different this was my first one with the bark on
All the best Robbie
