Bravo. Thanks for sharing your wealth of experience and knowledge. I've been perusing your blog as well, along with a couple of Chris Pye books, and hope to soon be putting blade to wood. You truly do great and inspiring work.

Hi Dave. At the start of this video you mention a previous one about design. Where can I find that one? It doesn't seem to be on your channel.

I appreciate your interest in the other video. Unfortunately, I had technical misstep and it's no longer available. I did write a blog post about the design/layout of that bowl: davidffisher.com/2015/07/30/white-oak-bowl-layout/ And I have many other posts about bowl design and layout.

Do you have video on making that heavy bowl carving bench?
@DFbowlcarver Жыл бұрын
No, but it's pretty simple. It's just my general woodworking bench made from 4 layers of 3/4" plywood face-glued, and screwed, together. What makes it solid and immovable is the fact that the back side is attached to a ledger board bolted to the wall of my workshop. There is no movement.

The one in the video is an antique D.R. Barton, made in Rochester NY. You can still find them around. It has an 8" blade, and the handles are about 16" apart. You can see it better in this blog post, in which I wrote all about drawknives: davidffisher.com/2022/06/08/drawknife-thoughts/

Hi dave I see you hold the twca cam in your right hand and steady it with your left ,I'm predominantly right handed so would i need to buy a right or left hand twca ? I'm a complete beginner and suffer with mental health problems so i do get confused very easily lol .thanks if you can help best wishes Neil
@davidfisher91792 жыл бұрын
Hi Neil. I get confused easily too, so you've got company! I think the twca cam that makes the most sense for a right-handed person is one with the cutting edge to the left when the tool is held straight out in front of you. I'm right-handed, and I'm using a right-handed twca cam in the video. I hope that helps. Happy carving!

How essential is the adze tool
@davidfisher91792 жыл бұрын
Not absolutely essential. Removes wood very quickly with practice and is a joy to use. But, especially for bowls that aren't super large, you can remove the bulk pretty efficiently with a big gouge with a steep sweep (like a #8) and a mallet.

I've seen other bowl horses but none quite that big. I would love to make one for myself, but I can't lift a log half that size alone. I do have plans to add a crane to the back of my pick-up so Being alone won't be a hindrance. In my area, almost every day there is a listing for free firewood from trees that have fallen or have been taken down. I may weld my own crane, which would be more fun, but I can get one for under $200.00 and I'm afraid the steel would cost more than if I bought one. I will be adding a battery-powered winch to it as well. I came up with the idea just to collect my own firewood, but now that I have seen that beefy bowl horse of yours It will be possible to get a large enough log for one. I have a question for you or any other commenters who know, is there a sealer I can coat the bowl horse in so it will be possible to leave it outside? It would get covered, but I'm afraid the moisture in the air will cause it to crack. Do you think maybe a Marine-grade sealer would work? Any other suggestions are always welcomed. Thank you, Dave!
