Thanks for the kind words. As for the washing of the shaving cream off I just use my thumb over the end of a garden hose to make it spray with a little more pressure then an open hose. But is you had a mop sink in your house or shop that you did mind if it get stained a little bit just the water coming out the faucet would be good enough. For the oil I use to use extra virgin olive oil but I have made the move to Neatsfoot oil because it darkens the leather a little giving it a warmer glow. Either one works well and I still use the olive oil on things I want to be a lighter color when oiled. And for after care I use and sale my own blend of olive oil and beeswax because it has less a darkening effect and is all natural.

Not so much they take about 3hrs to core out and then the cleaning up a mess.

Soil at my house, his primary red clay and barely grows any grass but the plan is in the next few years the hall in a truck load or two decent topsoil and tiller it in and make a nice little garden plot

Thanks

I can under stand the hole aspect of getting that creative spark down before but fades out.

Sorry about that lol

Raffen is a big inspiration and educational influence of mine as well as jimmy clues

Give it a shot great use of scrap wood and good to try new cut angles on.

John Baker I liked the way you finished the end as well that’s a great tip. 👌🏻

Got that from a fellow Turner off a Facebook group I thank it called (wood turning) kinda self tiles lol

It's a nice little tip I'm definitely going to give this a bash

I appreciate your feedback

Steal away I'm glad I gave you inspiration

Scott I use a 3/8 spindle gouge and on boxes o find the wings of the bowl gouge get in my way. As for the skew watch Alan Batty's video on skews it helped me tons. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZfIfXR-hriVp80 I'm no pro my any means I just want to share my spin go things. This is good for a general idea of how to turn boxes but a class is still the best way to learn.

Thanks John ....good stuff. Do you have a preference on your traditional tools ....looks like you are using either woodcraft or rockler ....I forgot who makes woodriver (sp)? Also, I agree with you regarding bowl gouges and wings....its just that I always heard not to use spindle gouge on end grain or any type of bowl turning .....not sure why, just a lot of turners will tell you not to do it. I think part of the confusion comes from how one determines exactly what is a spindle gouge ...and then there are so many variations of spindle gouge. Anyway, thanks for answering and thanks for posting your video in the group ....gonna subscribe to your channel ....so keep those vids coming :)

There from woodcraft as I have one in my town. I buy that brand because of the low price for good high-speed steel. Yo be honest I don't like the feel of the handles and will turn my own to rehandle that one day. Most likely out of black walnut with bees wax finish. As for a spindle gouge in end grain, this is how I was tought in the box turning class I went to and all in the books of Richard Rafflan ( hope I spelled that right ) that I have read. I'm using a true spindle gouge made of a solid piece of round steel and not a roughing out gouge (rog) witch is made from flat bar that has been rolled in the a gouge. A rog should never be used when cutting in to end grain as it will catch and bend or even worse brake and send pieces of steel flying. Also a rog or sometimes called a spindle roughing gouge should never be used in face turning we're end and long grain will be coming at the tool. And thanks for the sub, plus feel free to share this video as much as you like and as always be safe out there

It helps a lot to speed things up and declutters the bench

I'm glad you enjoyed

Thanks

Thanks

Thanks and your work is an inspiration for me

Thanks John very kind of you to say

Glad to help that's why I started making videos is to give back for all the info I've gained from KZbin.

Thanks for watching and the kind words
