Straight to the point, no waffle. Excellent demo.

Thanks Al.

Thanks for the explanation. Your videos are excellent!

Thank you

Thank you Steve, that is exactly what I needed, much better now that I know what to watch out for. It is basically shear scraping. I was trying to ride the bevel and it always ended up catching.

Thank you for taking time to comment

Excellent video. I recently bought a radius skew chisel. It looks at me, i look at it. We're at that awkward stage of our relationship.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you and enjoy the journey

[@volkerpetersen2671]

Awesome. I noticed though, maybe I am wrong...that many instruction videos are made in wood that looks like green poplar. As I am novice furniture maker, would like to see some work in oak 😊

[@woodturner21]

All my videos are in kiln dry wood. I have many many videos on my instagram but still a few on RUclips. These are old but in oak

I’m an odd one, I find the cove easier than a bead, I’ve also watched on a planing cut that I can make it all the way up the cutting edge without a catch? It’s the bevel I’m riding or what?

[@woodturner21]

It’s riding the bevel and good control. You obviously have good technique. It’s those who fear it that struggle relaxing makes it easier.

[@joesmith1574]

Is that the toe you’re using, or the heel of the skew?

[@woodturner21]

It’s the heel

[@jamessmith1965]

Is your skew that your using square across or has a slight skewed angle ? Good short vid 👍

[@woodturner21]

It’s a slight skew around 15 degrees or 75 depending how you measure it. The camera angle is deceptive
