A few short ones

[bobham]

Hi:

I have been uploading a few short technique type videos to Youtube that I haven't posted about here. There are four single segment clips so far, and I may have posted about one of them before. The clips are:

Hollowing with a 1/2" spindle gouge (may have been posted before):

Traditional grind bowl gouge cuts (response to a question on the Triangle Tea Light video):

The bowl I was working on in the last video may look a tad familiar to some. It is a bowl blank I purchased in the same place and at the same time as the one I used in my "No Chuck Bowl" video. I would hazard a guess that it was cut from the same board since it was almost identical to that one. There are pictures of that bowl in this thread:

Here are some pictures of the new bowl finished. I tried to reproduce the form of the first one as well as I could from memory:

Mulberry bowl, 6 5/8" diameter, 2 5/8" high.

Look close, Wizer?

Take care
Bob

P.S>: Oh, yeah, there is a series of segments on turning a tool handle that I had not posted here, as well. The playlist is at: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p ... 4614ADFCFA

I meant to say actually Bob, the bowl you sent me appears to have darkened a bit and looks lovely. It's got a flash of sapwood on one side and the contrast is just lovely. All the family seem to ignore my efforts and pick your one up!! :roll: :wink:

Thanks for the new vids, this will at least give me something to do tomorrow at work
