Thanks! Just a token to recognize the help you have been in continuing to improve my turning skills and in appreciation of the time you put in to these instructive videos.
I would never have considered using a spindle gouge on bowl shaping until I watched Richard's technique. But once I understood how he was doing it, it has dramatically improved the efficiency of my turning. That and his method of depth setting, hollowing and finishing with beeswax has been so much fun to try on my own. The result is my family thinks (wrongly) that I can do anything on the lathe now....:)
Richard, such an artist. I love how you fixed that horrible tear out. That's always a challenge to fix for me. I'll have to try a few of those techniques.
Such a nice little bowl with great design. Thanks for explaining the importance of being aware of the direction of the grain, and how to best approach it with the tool. Burls often have their own rules.
I almost never use a spindle gouge on a bowl, regardless of the grain, typically always a swept back 55 degree bowl gouge of 1/4, 3/8, or 1/2 inch. I notice you use a spindle gouge frequently. Any reason why? Nice video.
Since 1970 I’ve used spindle gouges for turning bowl profiles. You don’t need the strength of a deep-fluted bowl gouge working close to the rest, so using a less expensive tool when the cut is close to the rest makes sense, at least to me. I also found that when roughing a bowl profile with a hand over the gouge fending off shavings, the shavings often jammed in the flute of our modern deep-fluted bowl gouges so tight I had a dental tool to prise them out. Shavings can't jam in a spindle gouge.
Bonjour Richard. J'aime beaucoup les modèles que vous présentez ,cela m'inspire et je prépare tout un ensemble de dinette pour les petits enfants .Bol ,assiette ,tasse ,bref tout le nécessaire afin qu'ils puissent jouer .Merci encore de vos conseils, grâce à vous mon tour d'atelier tourne à plein régime. Bonne journée Richard.👍
When the grain is as busy as this I don't think beads would add anything to the bowl. However the vertical side would look better slightly more concave. With the foot gone I think the base would be a shade small for a practical bowl.
Hi Richard Lovely little grained bowl.a question on your dust extraction.i have a 2hp motor model but don’t get the extraction you have,I think maybe your built “hood” takes your dust and chips away so successfully.have you a video on your hood design? Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge,after turning for 27 years I learn so much from each of your videos,im an 82 year old dog still learning new tricks thanks from NZ
Beautiful bowl Richard.

Thank you very much. Greatly appreciated.

Always great to see you make something beautiful out of what other turners would burn. Thanks Richard.
Thank you for sharing. I always enjoy watching you turn. And, always seem to learn something. Thank you!
Beautiful!
Lovely news on the cataract surgery outcome!!!!

Very nice the grain is wonderful.
Perfect bowl, thank you so much for great video
I've started using similar sized offcuts for miniature bowls. They are very popular. The diminutive stature has real appeal.
A wonderful little bowl. I always learn something watching you, thank you!
A very nice little bowl Richard. Excellent use of small off-cuts. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
I'm still working on the small winged bowl from the other day. I think I got down... now to make 30 of them.
Perfect work. You did it well 👍👍
Very nice looking shape. It's really cool to see how you adapt to the material as it is available from a blank. Very helpful to see the process.

A nice little bowl. Thank you for inviting me round 🌞
Very nice almost has a marbled look

Merci, et bon chance.
I was expecting a little embellishment, a beaded base, maybe? If you took off the foot, where would you go with it?
