Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to make all of these videos. I've learned so much by watching you work. The final products are incredible, as well. Cheers.
Thank you sir. I really appreciate it. Glad you are enjoying my channel.
Thank you for another great video Stephen. I took down a cedar tree for a friend just before winter. It was about 28 inch diameter. I have many stacks of cedar bowl blanks in my garage right now. Beautiful stuff.
Thank you Walter. I do believe you will enjoy all that turning. Your shop will definitely smell great for a while. LOL! Take care.
Great looking bowl Mr Ogle... I keep thinking about making "how to" videos but turners like yourself make it so easy to understand I might as well leave it to the experts
Thank you Glyn. I really appreciate your vote of confidence in my channel. I really enjoy producing the videos and think you would also. Oh yeah, How about that Yorkshire Grit shine. Amazing!!
That was a pleasure to watch.
Lovely bowl Stephen and excellent video, as ever :-)
Thank you Mark. Glad you enjoyed this project.
Steven Ogle! My friend from high school and the guy who inspired me to join the Air Force! What a cool find on RUclips!
Jon. I am so sorry I did not see this message until today when someone else commented on this video. It is great to hear from you. Did you retire from the Air Force?
I learned more in this video about turning than most of the turning videos on RUclips. Thank you for posting this.
+JoeZero Thank you sir. Glad you found this project helpful and thanks for commenting.
Ditto, JoeZero. The narrative throughout the video was very helpful to understand the what, why, and how of the process. Excellent video!
cedar dust makes me sneeze alot
Thank you Jerry. Me too.
Cedar dust is a known carcinogen, and can cause asthma.
Another sensational project. As a newbie to turning, I appreciate your tutelage and techniques for dealing with different woods, grains, and situations. Well done, Stephen!
That's a beautiful bowl! Thanks for filming the project. One question, Is the finish food safe? Tks.
Hi Stephen, Cracking bowl mate , just beautiful!! I'm a great fan of "yorkshire grit" too brilliant product!
Another highly enjoyable video mate!
Take care, Bram.
Thank you Bram. I really appreciate it my friend. I think the Yorkshire grit really helps get to the next level of wax finishes. Glad you enjoyed this project.
I learned a whole bunch from this ,,, so much more than the other vid out there
I've turned several of these red cedar bowls and still have lots of blanks ready to turn, you said something about it being brittle, I haven't noticed that, it turns like clay, just find lots of small cracks, and C.A. glue works good on that. I cut my blanks out the same way except I use a pick instead of a nail, but they make beautiful bowls, I only use polishing grit and bee's wax for the finish, so not to cover the cedar smell !
are you still posting videos? from west tn just found your channel. cant wait
Just found your channel, and as usual, I learned alot. Your jam chuck looks different from others I've seen. Liked the faceplate centering gizmo. I'll make one today. Cedar is one of my favorites but not necessarily for turning.
Thanks for an informative video
I like cedar and I live close to Cedar Hill in Missouri.I have some that has been setting around for many years,I might just give it a try." THANKS "
I have a Grizzly lathe too, but I don't think my headstock rotates. I sure wish it did.
Loved the video but I am curious, what was that you used then you flpped the bowl the remove the tendon or however its spelt lol.
I've gotta make a faceplate jig like that! I've a good supply of cedar. I'll turn a bowl now. Thanks!
Thank you Bama. Glad you found this project helpful.
HI STEVE i am a little late to commit to your video VERY BEAUTIFUL BOWL and i have a question and maybe a commit HAVE you ever tried MOTHERS GOLD CARNUEBA CLEANER AND WAX I really like it and it does me fine for a slick finish i know YORKSHIRE GRIT does a very good job for what i have seen on youtube But i have trouble in my head the cost of it for no more than you get in that little can well any way thats just my opinion and you know the rest of the story ha ha REALL LIKE YOUR VIDEOS LARRY
Thank you Larry. Glad you are enjoying this project. I have used the Meguires Cleaner Wax on Acrylic and Epoxy turning projects and agree that it will leave a superior finish. The Yorkshire Grit that I have I got about six months ago or longer. I use it all the time and you can hardly tell any is gone from the can. You literally only use a "very" small amount on a project. I think it is well worth the money and I am a real cheapskate. LOL!! Take care my friend!
Quick question; how do you keep red cedar from turning brown
It is very beautiful Stephen very beautiful, and thank you for the chat over, I learn a lot listening at your explenatins. Júlíus
Thank you Julius. I think I like the new format also. Glad to see it works for viewers. Take care.
Verry nice work!!beautiful
Thank you Leo. Glad you enjoyed this project.
nice work stephen well done thanks for your tips mate
I like the way you done the bowl and it is verry pretty
Hey Stephen, great video. How ironic is it that I just received a red cedar log the same day you put up this video. I'll have to do some cuttin and dryin. do you dry it to 10-12%? or what MC is acceptable? thanks Brad
I will gererally weigh the wood and turn it after it stops loosing moisture weight. I do not use moisture meters. I just simply do not trust them to measure the inside moisture.
I'm new to turning and have done small things....what is the tool you're hollowing the bowl with?
Thank you Kitty. I use a 5/8 bowl gouge with a David Ellsworth fingernail grind for roughing and for some of the finish work. I hope this helps.
What kind of lathe are you using?
awesome bowl nice
I love cedar too!! built a cedar strip canoe, very time consuming. wanting to get a lathe..............any recommend ?
Thank you Tom. Glad you are enjoying my channel. I would really like to build a Cedar Strip Canoe also. As far a a lathe for you I can only say to shop around before you buy. I chose the Grizzly products because they were in my price range and met my specs. There are many great Brands out there and you should check out them all before choosing. It is a big investment, but a little research can go a long way. I hope this helps. Take care.
Beautiful! Stay safe brother!
What happened to the little finger?
Hi Stephen. I know it's been a few years since this video was published and that you've likely upgraded from this lathe, but I wanted to get your opinion. Did you find that this lathe's weight helped to offset the relatively high 650 RPMs speed minimum? The swing capacity and price point are attractive, but the opportunity for excessive vibration has me hesitant to upgrade from a midi lathe. Thanks. All the best.
Thank you Jason. I have bought a new lathe a couple of years ago. I never regretted my G0462 and enjoyed it for years. Just be aware of the minimum rpm and balance of a rough piece. If it is bolted securely to the floor (preferred concrete) you should be good. If a piece is out of balance it does not really matter which machine you are using. You will get vibration from any of them. Just for your information. Grizzly changed the design of the tailstock and I do not like the new design. The foot sticks to far under the quill. Looks to me like it can get in the way with a large bowl blank. Just saying. I hope this helps. Take care.
Awesome videos! I started out building custom furniture and saw your videos and have moved into wood turning. On my off days from the station, my wife and I are busy every day filling orders for our products. Just wanted to say thank you for the inspiration and knowledge Iv gotten from you and your videos.
Thank you Iceman. Glad you are enjoying my channel and finding it helpful. Good luck with your sells. Take care sir. Are you a Firefighter?
Stephen the cedar bowl is beautiful. omrie allen. Lebanon tn.
Where can i find a 3 jaw chuck?
Great Video, Talented 👍
Steve, I have two questions. I have a Sorby 13 mm (1/2 in) bowl gouge that is the only tool I use for my bowls, except touch ups with spindle tools. If you only could keep two bowl tools, one being a 13 mm, what would be your second tool? Second, what tool did you use to get under the rim?
Good question Jamie. I find that my most useful tools while bowl turning and even for a lot of spindle turning is my 5/8" bowl gouge. It just gives a lot of control when roughing a bowl and if it is really sharp will also complete most of your finish work. On this bowl I used my gouges to do the recess below the rim. I hope this helps.
Hello,
This is a beautiful bowl. I enjoy turning cedar. What is Yorkshire grit and where can I acquire it? Another awesome lesson! Thank you😊
Thank you Bennie. Here are links to get you to the Yorkshire Grit. One is for UK and the other is for USA whichever is closest to you. Glad you enjoyed this project. I hope this helps.
For ordering from the UK please use this link:

That's an awesome bowl! Totally inspired.....but I have to ask!!! The tune in the intro??? It's stuck in my head and soundhound is no help!
Thank you Mike. Glad you enjoyed this project. The music in the intro is free to use for RUclips Creators. I do not know the name of the song, but you can find it in the RUclips creator studio under instrumental, guitar. I hope this helps. Take care.
Another great video Stephen. Maybe a stupid question but I've just watched Mike Walt blowing steam in his workshop - is there a technical reason you guys don't put a little heat in your shop?
Thanks again. Irish Turner
Sam. I can't stand to be cold. I use a "Potbelly" woodburning stove in my shop but only when it gets around freezing temps. It can usually keep the shop at around 50 deg F. My shop has many drafts in it and a heater is almost useless.
Always a pleasure to see you turning. Another amazing piece Stephen
Thank you Al. Good to see you my friend. Glad you enjoyed this project.
Really did like this video. I have been turning some cherry I got from the man I bought the lathe from. Are you located in Cartersville, Ga? I am in Woodstock Ga. Would like to meet you.
Thank you David. I live in Rockmart and work in Cartersville. Send me an email and we can set up a time to meet one day. stvnogl@gmail.com I look forward to hearing back from you.
GREAT video ! I LOVE cedar ! You did a great video and I'll try to duplicate your project !! I just went and BOUGHT some pine planks today. On our way home, my wife spotted some fresh cut wood in a guys yard. We said "hey" all he can do is say get lost right !!" Turns out the guy GAVE US all we wanted and said come back for the cedar if you want it !! It's FULL of knots and branches and should produce some BEAUTIFUL turnings !! Then I come on YOU TUBE and see your video ..... How about that !! Thanks. I'll be loading my chainsaw and heading back there REAL soon !! Stay safe !!
Yorkshire grit is very expensive lol.. small amount for 20 bucks
Thank you John for your comment. I think it is reasonably priced especially since it will go such a long way. Remember that you only use enough for one thin coat per project.
Really liked your video...
Looks nice. Some day I want to start turning wood. Just wondering if you could do a video on which order and which tool is specific for what part of the process . Also if you could show/explain how you sharpen your tools. Thanks.
Thank you Ben. I will try to pay more attention to mentioning the tools used in my projects. Here is a playlist of my sharpening methods. ruclips.net/p/PLGsnYf7PysCQb5mjvEG2EQvgrZBIs8_65 Hope it helps.
Nice piece of red cedar, out here you would have to take out a second mortgage to get one that size. I do enjoy turning Cedar (when l can get my hands on a piece) because of it's grain and color. Your bowl looks great, thanks for sharing.
Thank you Larry. I really appreciate your comments. Cedar is very plentiful in Georgia so I have been turning it for many years now.
Superb video. It was so well explained that it motivated me to do one soon. I'll let you know how it goes. I love your easy laid back way of teaching. Thanks
Thank you Brad. So glad you enjoyed this project and found a little inspiration to do it yourself. Please let me know how it works for you.
What size blade do you use on your bandsaw and what finish do you use. Everything I use on Ceadar just soaks right in and I have to put 8 or coats on it before if stops ducking it in.
Good question Tim. My bandsaw is used for mainly rough cutting and I choose to us a 1/2 inch blade with 4 to 6 tpi. They are 105 inch. A great finish on Cedar is two coats of Tung Oil and 2 to 3 coats Minwax Paste Finishing Wax. However, DEFT Laquer based sanding sealer works very well also. I hope this helps.
Hi i am a person from Kosovo, i like to work with wood, recently i bought o wood turning machine but it was old type without the head that keeps the bowl .I am trying to find it but till now without success .i would be thankful to you if you could tell me how to find it,best regards thank you.
Thank you Theranda. First you should know the thread pattern of your spindle. From there you can find either Faceplates or Chucks to fit your lathe. Try www.woodturnerscatalog.com they should have everything you need. I hope this helps.
hey there Stephen, I have been able to acquire quite a bit of the red cedar myself and will trying my hand at turning a few bowls and boxes. how do recommend finishing them to keep the color from fading and what to do for the boxes to not cover that sweet aromatic smell?
Thank you sir. I have found that Laquers and Oil based Polyurethanes are your best bet for finishing cedar to retain the colors. Wax only finished seem to allow the red to turn brown. As far as retaining the aromatic fragrances. The wood will stop giving off the nice smell after a few weeks, but can be restored by lightly sanding an area. I hope this helps.
Nice bowl. You should make a donut chuck to hold a bowl like this rather than using a jam chuck. Thats just my thought though.
Thank you Tony. Great suggestion. However, doughnut chucks scare me. Glad you enjoyed this project.
BEAUTIFUL JOB !! I love Cedar too. I have a friend that gave me a Cedar tree that he cut down last year. All I need to do is take my chainsaw and go size it up !! That's going to happen REAL soon after watching this video !! Thanks for another great video !!
Stephen, have you ever made a bowl of Magnolia wood? I just finished one and am pleased with the finish and grain pattern.
Thank you George. No, I have not although I have seen the Magnolia bowls before and love the colors. I have a huge Magnolia in my yard but refuse to cut it down. LOL!!
Beautiful Bowl, Great coloring, Great Artistry and very good instructional video. Thanks !!
Also...nice to see good work being done on a fairly basic lathe. One does not need a $4500 PM 3520C to make basic bowls....much as I would like to own one.
Hi Stephen,
I have enjoyed your videos. I have a question? I liked your finish on your cedar bowl but my question is How about poly urethane finish? I have had trouble with bothy finish. I haven't tried the Yorkshire grit but it sure looks nice. Any suggestions on sealing cedar and pine wood would be much appreciated. thanks paul
If I'm not watching your video I'''m turning in the shop!!!! Bowl looks great! Your RUclips show is the best on the net. Very informative !!!!
Beautiful work
nice job thank you
Wow! Beautiful bowl. I'm just getting started on turning, you sure made it look easy. LOL We have a lot of Cedar in Central Texas...guess I'm going to have to start practicing.
Great vid. I learned a lot. I'm somewhere between a beginner and intermediate turner. I currently have a Rikon VSR Midi but I am looking at replacements. How do you like your Grizzly?
Thanks, my daughter brought me two nice cedar pieces. I've never turned cedar and I've been delaying trying it, but now after watching and learning from your video, I'm ready. Well, maybe I'll try sharpening the tools (another task that seems to require skills I haven't got yet) thanks again
Hey Stephen, I just watched your video on this large cedar bowl. You really turned a beautiful piece! I especially appreciated your monologue; it was quite educational about cedar and it’s peculiar characteristics. I’m a new wood turner, just about three months now. I’m have contracted ALS and am a little over a year in my diagnosis. This has been very therapeutic for me. Thanks for teaching me some things in this video. 🤗
Beautiful bowl. The finish is perfect.
I've not turned cedar but I just got a few blanks today from a friend.
Question: does the cedar finish well with a food safe wax?
ΠΟΛΥ ΩΡΑΙΑ ΕΡΓΑΣΙΑ ΣΤΕΦΑΝΕ
Awesome video. Been trying to find good info on finishing cedar ( I turn a lot of it ) but the finishes have given me problems. Now they won’t. Thank you. Great info and narrative on the video.
Amazing work!
Verry pretty bowel
Is that aromatic cedar? And, where do you acquire Yorkshire grit? Beautiful work by the way.
hay Stephen , Where is that expensive coring tool you bought? Looks like you could have had a nice core.??
Real beautiful. Thanks for showing the process.
Very nice work!!
Nice work! I'm part way through a natural edge cedar bowl now that is about 9 1/2" in diameter.
thanks for the "blow by blow" narration of turning the bowl. haven't started yet turning but want to watch as many turner/techniques as I can but at 71 yrs old I need to get going but maybe I'm too old toget into this hobby
Great work Stephen not only the bowl produced, but also on the instruction. Really enjoyable, thank you!
Good job Stephen. I like to turn cedar but have not ventured to turn one that big. Enjoyed the video.
Larry
Ellijay
Great job!
Nice smooth work at the lathe. Loved the use of a face shield and actual wood screws rather than drywall screws to mount the face plate. Every step done properly is a good work method and ethic to have. My hat is off to you sir!
I like cedar as well. Haven't tried Yorkshire grit.
Thank you sir. I find the Yorkshire grit to really help with the surface preparation before waxing. It actually works great!
Is Yourkshire grit the same as EEE? I see a lot of guys using the Yorkshire grit.
Thank you Michael. I am not really experienced with the EEE and can not honestly answer your question. However, a lot of people compare the two so I believe they are similar compounds.
Love your videos. I ran across them on RUclips e and then found out your in my neck of the woods. Do you do any type one on one instruction? Would love to learn from on of the best. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful bowl.. Thnx for the video..
Thank you David. Glad you enjoyed this project.
What does adding the sanding sealer after sanding do? Thanks Karen
Thank you Karen. It simply ensures a good base for the Yorkshire grit to work on. I hope this helps.
Beautiful bowl!!!! Love your down home videos. I'm right down the road from you in Acworth.
Nice job.😊
Hi. Very nice. Who's music it is between 08:00 and 11:15 please?
Thanks. Well done, very informative.
I've turned a couple of cedar bowls ,I like the colors, good job ,good video .
Is that a shellac based sanding sealer you used? It turned out really nice.
Thank you Mike. I use DEFT Lacquer based sanding sealer. It is much more durable than Shellac based. I hope this helps.
hello there stephen, great jobe you have done there, very very well done mate , allso this yorkshire grit works very neat as i can see , great vid mate thanks for the share
Great job
Stephen, I’m so glad to have found your channel! Beautiful job....
I love this video, thanks so much! Beautiful bowl
Very nice
Wait, who produced this video? I don't think you told us enough.
Beautiful
Beautiful job on the cedar bowl Steve.
is that a foam drawer liner, like a no slip grip on the faceplate? when cutting the bottom nub off ?
Thank you John. Yes, just simple cabinet liner. It works great for this application and holds up well.
How do you get the bowl on the jam chuck just right so it doesn't wobble?
From what I could tell It lines up with the tailstock
I bet this made your shop smell amazing
