Hello Jamie. The lathe is a Stubby 750 Lathe made in Melbourne Victoria. The largest piece I can turn is 625mm or approx. 24 inches. It is a great machine. The roughing gouge is one that I got years ago from the Men's Shed in Alexandra. They make their own tools.

Can I ask a quick question? At 2:34 I saw that wood stop on you on gouge? Could you tell me why is that happening and how to prevent it? (Is it wrong angle of gouge, wood too slow, gouge not sharp enough, trying to cut too much wood at once or something else) I am complete beginner in wood working, tryjng to learn it and this wood stopping is happening to me too often and have no idea how to prevent it

Morning Luka. Yes it can be any of those things. In this case the wood is soft and so I needed to keep tightening the tail stock. It happens more when the wood is square and you are going slow. Once the wood is rounded and the speed is faster you will get less catches. You will always get an occasional catch and it can be that you relax on the angle of the tool, the speed is too slow , the wood has a knot and you are trying to take too much wood off at once or the tail stock has loosen. I like to rough out the wood and then put it into a chuck to finish it. For harder woods I try to get it into a chuck quickly to prevent catches. It has taken years but I now take my time and enjoy the process.

Nice lathe. I bought a vicmarc instead of stubby. Both excellent Ozzie lathes. Please if you are going to make videos for people to watch, use safe turning techniques.NEVER EVER use a spindle roughing gouge on a bowl. Spindle roughing gouges are too weak to be used on a bowl and are not designed for cross grain work , only parallel grain found in spindles. Also the outside of a bowl should be turned from bottom to top of bowl so that you are turning with supported grain. Too much sped up work to really appreciate the enormity of your bowl. In the end the bowl did look great.

Very nice. It looks chunky and elegant at the same time, if that makes sense.

It was rotten inside and there was little wood holding it together. Normally would not split that bad.
