I know this is 2 years old video but I can spend my evening watching these video’s. Better entertainment to me than anything on tv unless I get lucky and can catch a Bruins hockey game down here in Virginia. I really enjoy all your video’s I’m from New England, actually Northern Maine up in Houlton on the boarder with New Brunswick and half my relatives are Canadian so feel I deserve dual citizenship hahaha. My Dad’s father came over from Canada and ran a saw mill but he passed long before I was born. May dad had a wood workshop so I was always around his projects but he never turned. I’ve never turned either but now after watching your videos I really want to learn and will likely pick up a MIDI lathe to get started. I don’t know I’ll ever get to be good at it but seems like it would be a fun hobby. I may record my whole journey from unpacking to equipment purchasing and how I do and grow in time. If I do I’ll be sure to mention your channel as my inspiration. Please keep making these keep talking and explaining tips and techniques. Thank you Jim!
Thank you very much! We actually plan on moving back to NB in the spring of 24 to the Fredericton area. We’ve been to Houlton many times in my younger years. Keep me posted on your journey. Jim
Awesome Fredericton NB is where my Grandfather came from. Still have a lot of relatives in that area. I live and work now in Virginia but would like someday to head back to Maine. I hope when you move you keep turning and making videos. I’m looking for a lathe surprisingly few used ones that are not mini. I think I’d like to get a midi I can expand to begin with although a bit pricey I may just buy a new Record Power Herald. I know a bit much for someone with zero experience but seems like the best for growth over time and all reviews are outstanding, and less money than a full size General. I’m afraid is I start off too small I can’t do bowls and I’m not interested in pens or spindles. If you have any advice let me know thanks.
@@NGildred look for a good used one on Craigs list. No less than 12” inboard and if you can find one that you can do outboard turning, that would be ideal. Oneway, powermatic, robust and General all make good lathes. A Record would do just fine too. I will keep my channel going in NB too. Jim
I’ll checkout Craig’s forgot about them was looking other places. Thanks and much appreciated. FYI… my name is actually Terrence or Terry but I was born on Jan 6th (little Christmas) so everyone on my moms side and siblings call me Nick after st. Nick and on dads side everyone calls me Terry. Haider is a name given me by friends in the Middle East and near east because they thought I looked like a Lion and that is what Haider means in Arabic so I just use it on social media lol. Most everyone calls me Nick though. 😅
You are great teacher if someone said something that this is boring then thy don't wont to work. You just put in a good days work. That makes you a great Teacher.
Thanks, Jim! I really appreciate the effort you put in, explaining the steps to us. With the videos, the great thing is that we can go over them, repeatedly, to clarify matters. So, doubly thank you!
If course that's how you core a tree 🤦♀️ thank you for showing, I had a completely different idea that only works in dream land and with magic 😅 learn something new every day! Thank you 🥰
Certainly not boring! There is something very relaxing about watching you create a new bowl and the walnut is stunning! Thank you for sharing, I’m having fun learning what goes into making bowls. You do a great job explaining everything.
Really enjoy watching these instructional videos. Very helpful as a beginner turner. Don't worry about repeating anything from previous videos. It's good to hear things over and over. That wood is just amazing. Your burn pile is better than anything I have. Really appreciate your efforts making these videos.
Yes, this is really cool! I love how you address as many pieces of the business and behind-the-scenes work as you can think of so that anyone can jump in and start doing this stuff too! I'll bet that's one of the reasons most of your viewers are also subscribers. The other being the reminder in each video, that's good that you do it, though it could get a little annoying. But it also means that every viewer is getting that extra reminder to subscribe, in case they hadn't decided to you.
Always watch this one when I start coring. It was this video that made me buy the Oneway. No matter how customer unfriendly they are they make the best.
I only started watching turning videos fairly recently, but the one thought I kept having was a lot of beautiful wood was being turned into sawdust. I had the idea that more than one bowl could come out of a chunk of wood. Glad to see that a system exists.
That was fun to watch, and amazing how many bowls you get out of one log. A true pro at work is outstanding to see. Thanks for sharing this post and your channel. It's fantastic to see start to finish with your art work. Again, thanks for the info. Stay safe and keep on turning.🌿 🥣🥣🥣🥣🥣
Nicely done turned hundreds of bowls for years basically the same way, got away from it somewhat to the artsy side of tuning but you inspire me to go back at it as I enjoy the process and honestly have scores of bowl turning blanks taking up space for years that need a home.
ANOTHER WELL DONE AND AWESOME JOB OF WOOD TURNING OF BEAUTIFUL BOWLS TO BE AND I KNOW THEY WILL BE SO KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC JOB AND TAKE CARE AND STAY SAFE GOD BLESS YOU YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS A I HOPE YOU YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS HAVE A AWESOME LABOR DAY WEEKEND TILL NEXT TIME MY FRIEND
Do yourself a favor and get the Korpro Cutter from Hunter Tool Systems. The carbide cutters that come with the system are junk! Don’t forget to use my code inlayjim for your discount. Thanks
This is my FIRST TIME 👀 seeing this VLOG. I have alot of new learning. THANK YOU. My FATHER worked with WOOD as a HOBBY. He was VERY TALENTED. He wood carved. Made furniture. KITCHEN cabinets and counter. ETC.. I am so GLAD NO MUSIC. GOD BLESS YOU. CHOW
There is so much work in creating a masterpiece and you have shown us just the very beginning of the journey for that one piece of wood. You are very talented! One note on the smallest bowl/plate… I have these all over my home in different mediums. I put rose quartz, amber, jade, amethyst, boulder opal, and many other stones that I have collected over the years, inside these small bowls/plates. So don’t throw them away, they are of value to some people. LOL
Jim fantastic I get my oneway coring system tomorrow. Thank you for showing adding a tenon on an inner core bowl. I have about 30 linear ft of black walnut ready for coring. Thanks keep up the videos.
This is my first visit and I am so impressed with the clarity of your explanations and am blown away by your talent. No apology needed for the length - I am captivated. Ray from the U.K.
Watching you work is always a pleasure and excellent learning experience, plus it’s all I can do till my replacement lathe comes in. I LOVE walnut, my favorite wood by far. Coring would be a great a very valuable addition for the future as I gain more experience and graduate to a full-size lathe, currently on a midi. Just don’t tell my wife I plan to invest even MORE $$ on equipment in the future! 👀 Tex
I've been turning for a little more than a year now and I love it! Thanks for all the videos. I've watched them all... 'ish. When I get an alert you've posted a new video I get excited to see it. I'm on a little bench top lathe in my basement but my goal is to have a shop and a big lathe. When I get that I'll post a video that maybe you can sit back and watch sometime. 👍👍
Super interesting video. Smart idea not to throw away all the insides of the bowls but to cut it out and make more bowls from them. Economically seen this is clever. Thanks for the video!
Джим ВЫ супер мастер !!! Спасибо что Вы всё конкретно рассказываете и показываете что и как делать .Жив буду обязательно сделаю такое приспособление , Удачи ВАМ Джим и здоровья . Про количество и качество я вообще молчу !!! С Уважением к ВАМ !!!! До свидания !!!
Recently found your site. Learning so much from watching you. I am recently retired from my “real job” and want to pursue my woodworking hobby and make a little income from it. Can’t wait to see your kiln system. I really appreciate what you do and the Natural beauty you bring out in the wood. Awesome stuff. Be safe!
I bought 20 acres in North Eastern Kansas a few years ago and had no clue what some species of trees were worth so I counted and measured just the walnut trees on the front 9 acres and I have well had 57 walnut trees now 56 cause I cut one down and slabbed it with my chainsaw, most of them are pretty good size but I have a few that were really big, the biggest one has a diameter of 41 inches. I think im gonna cut it down soon so it can start drying out. I have lots of pin oak white oak shagbark hickory and red oak also. Anyway those bowls are beautiful, If I got a lathe I would have to hide it in the woods cause my wife thinks I'm just a workhorse and wants me to make everything for her and she has zero patience and im not retired!
Long, but interesting all the way through. Glad to see your channel growing so well, though less chance of me winning a giveaway! As a left turner, I really enjoy the info I have picked up along the way from your videos, as well as the stone processing. Best to you in 2021, hope it is a good year for you. And thank you for making good quality videos for me to enjoy when I am not turning.
I don’t turn but I love watching you talented people,it is mesmerising and I love seeing an item like a bowl or whatever come off the lathe..I am shocked that your the first I have seen do this.You utilise more of the real wood than others and get more out of it as a reward ,to think in most cases you get three bowls others get one and loads of shavings ..I take my hat off to you as you get the most out of your love of working with wood as well as saving on the amount of wood you use 😀
I really loved seeing the entire process. I was thinking that some of those long curlicues of wood shavings could maybe be put into resin? An experiment?
The pieces that I’ve seen with long wood ribbons that are combined with resin look dirty to me and are usually full of bubbles. I don’t think it’s for me, but you never know, lol. Thanks 😊
Jim your videos are just great. I was very inspired by this one. I attacked a cherry log this weekend and got six 14" bowl blanks roughed out and sealed. It's really nice to get a view into the shop (and mindset) of a production turner.
I liked how you thought of other uses for the walnut you couldn’t use for bowls, so not too much went to waste. Walnuts pretty pricey where I am, but it’s one of my most favourite woods. Enjoyed watching the process from tree trunk to bowl & those shavings, beautiful ribbons! 🇦🇺
I just wish I could go up to where Your shop is and just stand there and SMELL, It must be WONDERFUL TO BE ABLE TO DO YOUR JOB AROUND ALL THE TREES AND WOOD I ENVY YOU PLACE OF WORK AND ABOVE ALL ELSE YOU DO FABULOUS WORK. SOME DAY I WANT TO BUY A PIECE OF IT THANKS AGAIN
Thanks Mr.Sprague for your advice, makes since to measure from the chuck . I will try that, I have turned since 2013 and cored a few bowls , I have the two smaller sizes one way. Thanks again Richard Hoxie
I watch the full video because i love to learn from my professionals, and with the age comes wisdom. So i love the video

Not boring at all . I love Walnut and can watch this all day long.....Thank You.
Thanks 🙏
Boring? Are you kidding? Just getting a very good turning education from you. We beginners need to get such detailed videos. Thank you so much.
Great! Thanks 🙏
My, what a TON of work! Thanks for showing us the process.
Thanks for watching
I couldn't agree more with most of these comments! Boring is far from what I'm seeing. Very interesting and educational that is for sure.
Thanks again!
I love seeing the whole process. I appreciate the time you take to make these videos, they're not too long and especially not boring!
Thanks Lili, I’m shooting a processing video now for Friday. Jim
Yes, this is really cool! I love how you address as many pieces of the business and behind-the-scenes work as you can think of so that anyone can jump in and start doing this stuff too! I'll bet that's one of the reasons most of your viewers are also subscribers. The other being the reminder in each video, that's good that you do it, though it could get a little annoying.

I just bought my first lathe. I purchased a Grizzly 16x46. I really enjoy your videos.
Awesome! Thank you!
Always watch this one when I start coring. It was this video that made me buy the Oneway. No matter how customer unfriendly they are they make the best.
Can't beat most of their products, thanks
I like this coring tools better saves the middle part of the wood than just turning and 'dredging' it which is such a waste. Good job Sir 👏👏👏
Thanks 🙏
I only started watching turning videos fairly recently, but the one thought I kept having was a lot of beautiful wood was being turned into sawdust. I had the idea that more than one bowl could come out of a chunk of wood. Glad to see that a system exists.
It’s sure does and I just did an update on the system that was used in this video, Jim.
I really appreciate seeing how involved it is! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!

Nicely done turned hundreds of bowls for years basically the same way, got away from it somewhat to the artsy side of tuning but you inspire me to go back at it as I enjoy the process and honestly have scores of bowl turning blanks taking up space for years that need a home.
Thanks again!

@Sprague Woodturning Awesome I plan on doing that!

Walnut is king! Thanks for watching
Jim this was a very interesting video and the information on what you are doing and how you do is really helpfully. Thank you very much Jim x
Thanks again!

Your secret is safe with me 😜😜. Walnut is king in theses parts! Thanks
I love the wood. Beautiful bowls. Another masterpiece
Thanks 😊
I have been turning wood for over 25 years and I love turning black walnut
It’s my #1, thanks
I've been turning for a little more than a year now and I love it! Thanks for all the videos. I've watched them all... 'ish. When I get an alert you've posted a new video I get excited to see it.

Sound great! Thanks for watching!
Not boring at all! Very informative and interesting.
Thanks Andrew
Great info. Look forward to the vid on storage and drying times .
Thanks again!
Loved every minute of the video. It must be so nice to work with such beautiful wood. Thanks for explaining and sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Not boring at all, I found it very informative. Thanks for sharing
Great, thanks.
Excellent job as always!!
Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed this video.
Thanks 😊
You are the man. Keep it coming
Thanks Scott, I really appreciate it.
Nice to see someone that knows how to sharpen a chain. Can't cut that straight with tooth angles outta whack. Double props if you are freehand filing.
Thank you very much!
Love, love, LOVE!!! Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the info on coring. Seems to be worth the time and investment.
It totally is! Thanks!
I really enjoyed watchin how you get started working with the wonderful bowls you make. Thanks so much. Take care & God Bless!!!
Thanks 🙏
Super interesting video. Smart idea not to throw away all the insides of the bowls but to cut it out and make more bowls from them. Economically seen this is clever.
Thanks for the video!
Thanks 🙏
I look forward to using my coring system
It’s awesome, I will have another coring video out in a couple of weeks, thanks.
You have a great system and business. Very good video. You explain in great detail.
Thanks Edwin, I really appreciate it!

Nice. I like the bandsaw circle template trick.
Simple is best, lol. Thanks.
OMG .... What a spectacular beauty this bowl is.
Thanks Merry!
Great Job on coring that tree! You made it look easy!
Thanks 🙏
no need to apologize, you didn't bore me at all. The pace was perfect, and ty for no damned music.
Lol, thanks 🙏
So generous with sharing your knowledge........respect to you sir
Thank you Phil!
thanks for empowering me
It's my pleasure! Thank you very much!
That is the coolest thing I've seen turning. Oneway is an amazing company!
Agreed, thanks 🙏
Loved the video

Awesome video , I've learned a lot from you and am turning some nice bowls now. I wish I had your lathe tho
Great! I’ve done an update on swapping out the cutters that go on the knife sets, Jim.
Well done .... the best person I've ever seen. You didn't use much wood.
An excellent idea to use curved knives 👏👏👏🌹
Thanks 😊
I love your bandsaw & lathe. They are monsters!
They get the job done, that’s for sure. Thanks
Pretty slick rig 👍
Thanks!
That is a very good explanation of of coring on a natural edge bowl... Thanks!!!
Thanks Randy!
excellent instruction video
Thanks 🙏
I don’t turn but I love watching you talented people,it is mesmerising and I love seeing an item like a bowl or whatever come off the lathe..I am shocked that your the first I have seen do this.You utilise more of the real wood than others and get more out of it as a reward ,to think in most cases you get three bowls others get one and loads of shavings ..I take my hat off to you as you get the most out of your love of working with wood as well as saving on the amount of wood you use 😀
Thank you, your too kind. I like to get the most out of expensive logs, Jim.
Glad to give you a thumbs up and am subscribed.
Great, thanks 🙏🏻
Very informative thanks so much and hello from New Zealand
Awesome. New Zealand is on my bucket list. Thanks 😊
You are an amazing woodworker! Thank you for your turning demo. Best wishes
Awesome thanks 🙏
Sir, Bravo good job .
Thanks 🙏
Not boring at all,new viewer
I enjoyed everything. From FL where it's hot as blaze's
It’s finally starting to cool down here, this summer been the hottest I can remember since living here, but it’s no Florida tho, lol.
Wonderful, pleasant to watch! !!! Great work.!!!! No wastage!!!!
Final product will surely b a marvel!!!!!!!Thnks for sharing.
Thanks!
Thank you for making this video!
It was really good to see how you approach the process.
Thanks Dan!
Not boring at all. Very interesting. Gorgeous walnut. Great work!! Cheers, Paige C.
Thanks 🙏
You are a great teacher. Love your bowls.
Wow, thanks 🙏
I really loved seeing the entire process. I was thinking that some of those long curlicues of wood shavings could maybe be put into resin? An experiment?
The pieces that I’ve seen with long wood ribbons that are combined with resin look dirty to me and are usually full of bubbles. I don’t think it’s for me, but you never know, lol. Thanks 😊
The very inner blanks that would are a very small bowl would be great as an open dish for spare change
Love the variation in the walnut 👍
Yes! Thank you!
Jim your videos are just great. I was very inspired by this one. I attacked a cherry log this weekend and got six 14" bowl blanks roughed out and sealed. It's really nice to get a view into the shop (and mindset) of a production turner.
Good stuff, thanks 🙏
I liked how you thought of other uses for the walnut you couldn’t use for bowls, so not too much went to waste. Walnuts pretty pricey where I am, but it’s one of my most favourite woods. Enjoyed watching the process from tree trunk to bowl & those shavings, beautiful ribbons! 🇦🇺
Thank you Lisa!
Jim this was very interesting and enjoyable, keep up the good work......researching wood lathes now. Thanks!
Great! Thanks Brad.
Really useful. Thanks
Thanks 🙏🏻
I really enjoyed this! My first time visiting your site! I love the fact that you use every part of the log!
I always try too, thanks.
Awesome video man keep the videos long it’s great. Thanks man!
Thanks Michael!
Boring!?
I have never turned anything in my life yet I can sit for an afternoon just watching people make stuff.
Thanks for the entertainment.
Thanks Bob
I enjoyed the video and I learned something which is good be safe
Awesome, thanks 🙏

Not too long or too detailed. I could watch you do 100 bowls! I'm so fascinated with wood turning and would LOVE a coring set up! Awesome video!!
Awesome, thanks 🙏
Thanks for showing the whole process. Wish I had Walnut like that here in Texas!
You’ve got some great woods there that I don’t have, lol.
Thanks for showing this is idia
