Hi Vince, thanks for watching. I hope you are still turning, I saw a couple of your woodturning practice videos and was impressed at your trash can drumming. I am not very musical. I hope you enjoy the rest of my videos. Please let me know what you think. Keep well, Rob
Hello Rob, Still a nice design. You're on the lathe to create the Osage Orange bowl. I hope we can watch more after it dries in the microwave. I'm looking forward to the finale. Congratulations. Thank you for the application, promotion and information. A warm hug. Big greetings. I wish you a healthy and happy weekend.
Thank you Robert, I don't think the edge is as durable on the standard grind but it cuts cleaner. I think of it like using an axe, the 60 degree gouge, to chop off the high jarring points and then the finer edge, if you can call 45 degrees fine, to do the finish cuts...anyway, that's my theory at the moment, I might refine it. Both were very sharp when I started..so I might be completely wrong :) Keep well, Rob
Thank you, I tried to reply earlier but the ophthalmologist drops meant I couldn't see a thing for a while. My camera fail was that the memory filled up, I shot in 4k. Can you see the difference? Thank you for watching, Keep well, Rob
Hi Rob, I love Osage Orange. I can't get a piece that big here in the UK which is a shame. That is going to be a stunning bowl. Looking forward to seeing you finish this one Rob. Take care. Cheers, Huw
Hi Huw, thank you. Did you like the camera angles and the real-time footage? I thought it looked cool but am not sure whether others would. Keep well, Rob
@@WoodenItBeNice Thank you Huw, I figured if someone could help me improve or if I helped someone else improve, then that would be great. I will probably try and do the same, maybe at the end of the next video to compare how the wood cuts once it is dry.
This piece of wood was going to be burnt, it was left outside of the wood turning club for months due to COVID-19. I have a few other big pieces that I want to turn. Keep well, Huw.
Nice job rob. I just got a truckload of osage orange!! I'm super pumped , it's such gorgeous wood. I turned a couple eggs just to see the wood finished, and it machines very well. I was surprised because of how dense it was. Thanks. Could you do a little review of your lathe. I just bought the 4224b.
I found the Osage orange likes to split, compared to Cherry, it is a gorgeous wood, and hard when finished. Reviews are difficult because each person has different standards and different abilities. I would say the Powermatic has become a better lathe as my experience grows. Add as much weight ,sandbags etc., to a shelf at the bottom, and/or bolt it down, you will be able to turn a little faster. The lathe beds rust quickly, before you finish rough turning a bowl, with some tree saps so get some wax or other protection down. I am a little jealous :) Keep well, Rob
Hi Rob! Lovely bowl, looking forward to seeing the finished product. I’ve not worked with Osage Orange yet - is it hard while it’s still green? It looks like it’s cutting nicely - wonder if it still plays nice once it’s dry. Let us know 😊
Hi Lisa, thank you for checking it out. I left it a little thick so it is taking longer than I hoped to dry in microwave. My wife will kill me if I bring home an old fridge or dishwasher to convert to a kiln. Keep well, Rob
Hi Mike, yes, I found that it helps to reduce the cracking anecdotally. I would need more data than I have time for to make a scientific conclusion. One of my previous bowls started to crack while microwaving so I used CA to contain the Caracas that formed, then painted with anchor seal and continued microwaving, no further cracks appeared. Now any savvy person could shoot the conclusion full of holes, for example once the initial cracks formed all the stress could have been relieved and that is why the bowl didn’t form any further cracks...so what I can say for sure is that applying anchor seal does not appear to harm the bowl blank. Good question Mike, thank you for watching, and Keep safe, Rob

That really has been helpful to a novice like me. Thank you.
Hi Brenda, thank you for connecting, I am glad that helped. Keep well, Rob.
Lovely grain nice watching your expertise .
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
Nice work,👍👍
Thank you Gao
this will become a nice bowl!grtngs!
Thank you, I hope it dries well. Keep well, Rob
Thanks for sharing. I've never tried turning wet wood before. Full View and Like
Hi Allen, thanks for watching. It is really nice to turn, cuts like butter. It is a great way to practice and it speeds up the drying. Keep well, Rob
great vid, thanks

For now it promisses to be very interesting bowl with original shape. Colors are very beautiful. I hope it will not crack. Take care, Rob 🤝
Hi Rav, thank you for watching, I am hoping to finish it next week. I must just remember to keep putting it in the microwave. Keep well, Rob
Looks awesome Rob, great video as always! 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Bruce, thank you for watching. Keep well, Rob

Thank you for the warm comments my friend. Keep well, Rob
@@RobBrandtWoodturning Thanks colleague! I wish you good luck, good mood and excellent health for fruitful work and new ideas!
Great cutting Rob. Nice seeing a fellow turner showing good technique. I really need to grind one of my gouges to more of a standard grind....

I forgot to check whether your name was Robert? I thought I saw it written on one of your tools. Thanks Rob
@@RobBrandtWoodturning Yep, Robert is my name!
Very nice video Rob. Alterations, camera fails etc are all part of the process. It looks like a fine future bowl! 👍

@@RobBrandtWoodturning Hi Rob, Camera angles were fantastic. New turners would be able to see the correct presentation of a tool to a piece.
@@RobBrandtWoodturning Real time was great as well.

The wood is dense and hard. Once dry it chips out in strings if you try to scrape it...I could be I was doing it wrong.
👌💯🇧🇷

Can't wait for the finale Rob. Question: Will you microwave it with the anchor seal on ? Stay safe. -Mike😷
