"Carve out some time" Nice. I see what you did there.

Another great video have not seen anyone else explain the “how to” cut up in detail and what to look for to maximise what you can get. Love the way you explain and reasons why. Many thanks

As I am new to turning this is the best explanation and examples of how to use the skew. Your marking the tool to show how and where the tool works is really excellent as it enables us to actually understand and follow . Many thanks Brian greatly appreciated.

1 question Sir, what is the angle of the fence?

Brian's has stopped posting videos why? So good and informative, no bs

Thank you for explaining the how to of negative rake tool use. A very informative video , andI plan to watch your others

Too good!

good idea

Thanks for the video. Just started learning how to wood turn. When setting up the tool rest what is typically the best position in relation to tool thicknesses?

Wow, that's much faster than my carbide rougher. The peeling cut strikes me as how you would use the skew if you knew nothing about it. It just seems more stable than the other cuts. I may have to buy a skew after this.

Think this is the best explanation I've seen of what skew shapes and sizes actually mean in practice.

Wie lang willst du ihn noch machen, ja

How do you measure turning tools? Example when you say half-inch spindle gouge, where do they get the half-inch at the bevel? at the flute? where?

FYI Regarding kits. Some college woodworking classes require students to supply their own tools. So beginners sometimes have no choice but to buy kits. Then the first couple weeks time is used in sharpening the new tools. Part of learning.

Thx for posting Brian, an excellent video on preparing and using the cardscraper👌

Great demonstration and great information, Thanks

Nice work

So much end grain turning on youtube so little of it with scrapers, thank you

Great design. I've got a piece of sugar maple of similar size ready for the second turning so your video is really timely and helpful on design and technique. Please tell me what the finished dimensions are, including the thickness of the rim, sides, and bottom, and proportion of foot to top (looks like around the typical one third). It would really help. Thanks.

What do you think about 3 carbides for beginners ,flat round and detail?

Excellent information explaining the various choices and their effects. Thank you.

You´re right, sets often include tools you don´t use or a different size than you´d prefer but as a beginner you don´t know what you want, you don´t know what you need and you don´t even know your preferences. It´s ineviteble that you´re going to buy some tools you think would be useful but in the end they will just collect dust. For me, the roughing gouge would be the 4th tool after the spindle gouge, the parting tool and the skew. With my roughing gouge I can remove a lot of material without dulling the tools for the finer work. That way it saves me a lot of time and my other tools will last longer. Since I have a Neuhammer roughing gouge which isn´t as deep as the usual ones, it´s way more versitaile. It´s more or less just a giant spindle gouge. What tools you need always depends on what you want to make. I have made some bowls but I mainly turn parts for furniture and small boxes. Furniture parts were the reason why I bought a lathe in the first place and that´s about 90% of what I use the lathe for.

Very helpful! Thank you

Thank you you answered my question I have had some really nasty catches

So if you learned to cut ambidextrous that would be very useful.

Very well presented,clear and easy to understand video thanks

Very well presented,clear and easy to understand video thanks

Thank you very informative

I just got a lathe, so this was helpful. Do you need a jig to sharpen the?

Thanks Brian, wonderful demonstration.

So I just listening to a few other channels say that spindle gouges should not be used on bowls because they are not strong enough. So, I'm confused.

Very knowledgeable thank you

Great stuff thank you. New to turning but the skew is by far my favorite tool of the bunch.

Great job on this. It really covers everything a novice might encounter. I’ve been around a while, and I still got some great tips. Really good video.

RIP Brian, thanks for all that you left us...

This is definitely one of the best videos on the skew I've found. Great instructions and plain enough that even i could follow.❤

I heard the phrase “if you talk to a flat wood worker”...is that what turners call us plankers ?😀 Judging from the planet and large stack of festool systainers and hand planes, I am guessing you are both.

Nise works😍

Most educational!

You had a lot of Australian timber examples. Nice.

Don't know why you gave up but these are gold dust stuff, superb work, if you're reading this, thank you, hope you're doing well, regards.

*_I finally got it!_* Your demo of where the bevel contacts (at 3:55) was a real "the light bulb went on" moment for me. I have gotten "ok" with the peeling and planing cuts but could not get the point cut. Just thinking about making a point cut caused my skew to fly across the room. After watching your video, I went to the lathe and put 4 beautiful V grooves in a scrap piece of wood. I almost broke down and cried. Ok, not really... but it was an exciting moment for me. I guess I'll have to keep my skew sharp and buy a dedicated paint can opener now.

Great content, well presented. Thank you.

Wow, raising the bar with the excellent video and "camera" shots. So helpful. Efficient and paced instruction as well. Kudos ;-)

Camera angles and close shots are so helpful, the details shown. Excellent. Appreciate.

the best coving moulding I found thank you

“Not Another Card Scraper Video” is exactly what I think as I watch each additional one these past few weeks. Yours, however, much to my surprise & joy, contains specific detail, valuable advice & unusual info that most all others have not included in recent years, making yours a “YES! - Finally! - A Highly Useful Card Scraper Video!” MANY THANKS, & very cute kid btw, prolly in pre-med school now?

Brian, I was so sorry to hear you and your wife died in a car accident in 2017. You are both in my prayers.
