Dave Fisher carves a greenwood bowl

[@KarlBunker]

I highly recommend the full David Fisher video series that's linked in the description and at the end of this video. The guy is a terrific craftsman/artist, and very good at explaining his processes and techniques as well. It's a delight to watch him at work, and the pieces he creates are just stunningly beautiful.

[@woogaloo]

Thank you for not posting a longer version of this...because I seriously would have watched it all... Gorgeous.

[@FineWoodworking]

There's is 5 1/2 hours on FineWoodworking for website members... bit.ly/2ijZ1dS

[@smolboyi]

​@@FineWoodworking thank you for your amazing website. I am happy to watch an ad to hear this man teach

[@blackitikatt533]

Dave! Why didn't you show more of the finished bowl??? I wanted to see more pics of it! 😞

[@billastell3753]

I'm just working on my 3rd bowl. Came here to re visit his techniques. I have watched all David's videos several times and they are a great resource to review as I progress. There may be a better bowl carver than David somewhere (I have no idea where) but no where is there a better and more generous artist that shares his methods on the net. Thank you David!

[@lesliecrowther7004]

Absolutely superb bit of carving work. And not an electric blitzer. Exquisite.

[@zsedcftglkjh]

Dave Fisher hacks into the space-time-continuum to finish this in three minutes.

[@thommytwotoestimesthree847]

The shape is delightful. I'm contemplating doing this shape but in a chair seat ... Really nice. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@smolboyi]

this man is an absolute legend

[@calisdad3]

Thanks so much for posting this. I recently saw it in a woodworking magazine and it fascinated. If I want to find a longer version I'm not self limited. I can. :-)

[@peterkoolwijk]

very enjoyable to watch, camera and music did fine job too. loved the skill, no machines in it.thank you..

[@johnbergeron3486]

It is easy to tell when somebody knows what they are doing they make it look so easy

[@Fiskekakemannen]

Oh... so it's a 3 minute VIDEO of Dave Fisher carving a bowl... That is not what the title led me to believe... :) Thank you anyway. Love the tool control :) I'm sure he has had "fish gills" on his thumb in the past, just like I have, when you are just carving away having a great time, with a razor sharp knife, not even noticing that you are repeatedly slicing into your thumb... then after a while it starts to tingle... then itch a little... then it tickles... a little stinging... then you straighten your thumb out and realize that you just a few keys away from a harmonica...

[@scoutandlouie4652]

"a few keys away from a harmonica" LMAO

[@seahawk528]

My god, I’ve got to get lessons on sharpening my tools. To have quality of work done so exquisitely with sharper tools I could only dream of having, I’m floored. That is one beautiful bowl, and not a lathe use of any kind. WOW 😲😲😲😲

[@burgzaza]

Amazing ! A true master at his work, this looks great.

[@markvonschober6872]

That’s a lot of work and amazing in only 3 mins!

[@happygardener28]

Nice, but did it survive the drying? Green wood is notorious for warping and checking.

[@tonyy5482]

You can't really finish wet greenwood very well. So it is normal to do most/all of the drying before finishing the bowl (decoration and/or smoothing and oiling/waxing). So the bowl is likely already dry towards the end of the video. David knows what he is doing.

[@snakeplisken2123]

I’m having a little tearout at the bottom of the bowl where all my gouge marks meet I have been using 2 matching antique Pfeil #7 gouges they are curved and the profile is better than the new ones I am getting a perfect cut until a small patch at the bottom. Shouldi soak the bowl or let it dry more? I’m not sure what my problem is but it’s not dull tools.

[@nevzatmutlu9325]

Very fine and clean work 🙏

[@treforparry4054]

Exquisite! Always great to watch a master at work.

[@brh4015]

I somehow assumed to be presented with some sort of novelty method of making a green wood bowl in 3 minutes.

[@Ferndalien]

I got the same false impression. This is a three minute video watching David Fisher at various moments as he carves a bowl. Not the same at all.

[@dukee3871]

He showed three minutes of video. Clearly a days worth of work.

[@spudpud-T67]

Click bait

[@throngcleaver]

If you've been watching KZbin videos for more than a few months, you should be able to pick out the click bait titles with ease. Unless, of course, you have a lack of intelligence, due to being of a young age, or........well, you know...

[@spudpud-T67]

thong, what a clever reply

[@nateturlo7521]

Nice work. The bowl has compound curves like the shape of saddle.

[@shereemorgan1430]

Gorgeous piece!

[@dangolfishin]

Man I wish I could see a few more shots of that masterpiece!

[@Jonanthebeebarian1]

Amazing craftsmanship. You should do a video on sharpening tools! Wow!

[@smass9]

That’s incredible

[@StephanieElizabethMann]

That is an inspiring process to make a beautiful bowl.

[@jbb5470]

Amazing craftsmanship! First time to your channel, outstanding!

[@irondoger]

A great inspiration. Thank you 🙏

[@rosenbaumccaa]

Beautiful. A real pleasure to watch

[@DouglasLambert]

Dave Fisher knows what he is doing!

[@sjscreations2608]

That bowl and his technique and talent are amazing! He has obviously made a hell of a lot of wood chips in his day? Cheers Sean

[@crossgrainwoodproductsltd9230]

I absolutely love bowls that have the gouge marks or I call it fluting, that flow into the bowl cavity. It is very elegant looking. Is this a personal preference or was t5his a common style associated with a time period from our past?

[@FlukeTog]

Beautiful video well done Sir.

[@texasbelliott]

Tremendous. The man is a master.

[@gratien69]

Do we have to subscribe in order to get the full video ? or can we just buy those episodes ?

[@FineWoodworking]

An Unlimited membership is required. There is a two-week trial available though.

[@kahlospirit24]

Whats the name if the tool ,hammer like thingy thst he carves the bowl with ?

[@livewiya]

Great video Ben! I could watch 2:18-2:21 forever

[@SPUDMACKER]

Just stunning to watch a true craftsman!

[@bedirhanburtul2964]

What kind of tree did you use to make bowls?

[@AndysOutdoorAdventures]

Wow , very Inspiring, the way you work with gouges, knives and the adze is really amazing, could have shown us more on finishing part of the bowl.

[@anishsomanoff]

Nice!!! well done 👍😀

[@brumblebuffin11]

Those puppies are SHARP.

[@jorgenieto2972]

great work

[@STONEDay]

Nice. Maybe show the finished project from various views at the end.

[@maybudha]

Amazing

[@KimPeinture]

Very nice

[@47kcr]

That was impressive!👍

[@barrylast8655]

Nice! THAT was so satisfying to watch. I love carving and practise makes perfect. I need to practise allot! lol..

[@stringmanipulator]

Wow man !!! awesome skills

[@benchippy8039]

So how long did it take to carve the bowl? Great to see a unique piece in a world of mass production, I hope he has an apprentice to pass the knowledge onto

[@BenStrano]

Ben Willmott about two days. Would have been three if we were able to finish the carving

[@DeBunkKing]

If it’s greenwood, how do you prevent it from checking apart when/once it dries?

[@FineWoodworking]

Dave covers all of that in the video series.

[@shakadanny3518]

Actual time... 10 light years.. Beautiful non the less.. 👍

[@throngcleaver]

A light year is a measurement of distance, not time. It's the distance light travels in one year.

[@poponachtschnecke]

This just reminded me that I've got huge blackberry roots I wanted to carve.

[@johnconklin9039]

Beautiful

[@usemoreproduct]

anybody know what adze he is using?

[@DaveDaHunt3R]

2:18 what a beautiful moment

[@billastell3753]

That tool is Hans Karlsson adze. The best.

[@Bv791510]

Beautiful.

[@oswaldopaz1502]

The Green wood title refers to Green wood or just a type off tree name?cheers

[@granmabern5283]

Fresh wood cut but not dried is called green wood and is easier to carve but then you have to dry it carefully so the carving doesn’t crack. My son told me to put the piece in a brown paper bag with the shavings so it dries slow.

[@Joseph-bk3hb]

Damn fine work sir

[@BentTreeFarmPa]

Wow, just wow!

[@SaraAhmad]

Nice video

[@Raven-rf7cz]

God truly gave us everything we need.

[@ohwowthatsgood]

beautiful

[@johndowe7003]

make one out of mesquite ?

[@keitha367]

mesmerizing

[@charliemae42]

Wow. Just wow.

[@christinehendryx937]

God bless him . I am gonna use my lathe

[@limearmoks3456]

01.05.2023r. Piękna robota.

[@laurentnahra708]

Oh dear, the shaving!!!

[@ОльгаСоколова-ы7г]

Почему черновое не выбрать пилой и Фрезером?

[@krishaky]

3 minutes damn he works fast.

[@Frankowillo]

"BOO HOO, you didn't show us the entire carving procedure in real time, now we'll *_never_* know how to do it ourselves!" You were *_never_* going to carve a bowl in the first place, you fucking whingers! Excellent video, btw.

[@zxvjy]

Nice video despite the misleading title.

[@peterkelly8953]

Noice work!!

[@gratien69]

So, reading the comments, a lot of people actually thought he was going to carve a bowl in 3 minutes ...... ????

[@LorraineHatrix]

That is false he did not do that in 3 mins.

[@throngcleaver]

You watched it in 3 minutes, and that's what the title says, "Watch, (video name) in 3 minutes."

[@JamespMusic]

Misleading title.

[@jerrodstaviski6609]

JPI Concepts why? Because you thought you could literally carve a bowl like that in 3 minutes?! Haha

[@nunyabisnass1141]

abcdefg hi jk lol no, because we thought according to the title that someone else claimed they could.

[@dangolfishin]

Wel damn

[@cbrito573]

Brasil,

[@nickas76]

If he carved that in 3 min then I'm El Chapo

[@robertdevino4109]

Nice Bowl but give me a break! this took way longer than 3 minutes! Try more like 3 hours or more!

[@sedulous7281]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Lardzor]

The title should really read: "Watch a 3 minute montage of Dave Fisher carving a greenwood bowl."

[@throngcleaver]

You watched it in 3 minutes. The title doesn't say, "Dave Fisher carving a greenwood bowl in 3 minutes." If you don't understand click bait when you read it by now, you should give up on KZbin.

[@Lardzor]

I thought it might have been an unintentional click-bait title. It was more ambiguous rather than intentionally misleading.

[@Douglas46461]

Took him longer than three min on that project....liked the video though.

[@CLoZe14]

Im mexican and i have this thing called white privelage which i think the term should just be first world privelage. I actually thought and expected it would take him 3 minutes to do this. I'm so ashamed that I let the internet do this to me.

[@joshfutterman3439]

That took way longer than 3 minutes

[@armin0815]

Misleading title and not even properly showing the final product - disappointing.

[@McRocket]

So impressive. But I wish you would ditch the music...the sounds of this craftsman are far more interesting to me.

[@rong1924]

Watch me report clickbait in 3 seconds.

[@MrTfba1]

3 min. ! Yeah right!!!

[@scottpoet]

thanks but I have a plastic one that's a little bit better

[@poponachtschnecke]

Lies! That looks more like 3 days or weeks.

[@santiph87]

LIES. Click baiting should be punishable by forcing the culprits to watch their own video for a week straight, with no sleeping pauses.

[@BanilyaGorilya]

This is fine woodworking but one of the only ways you could make a bowl in 3 complete minutes is on a lathe with a sanding station set up with walnut oil or some other stain set up as well. You can get a small oak bowl cut and stained in three minutes.

[@throngcleaver]

Looks like the title has been changed from clickbait to a normal title, but I'll bet ol' spud pud will freak out anyway, like usual. Maybe he can put a "r" in throng this time.

[@spudpud-T67]

thong are you new to the English language?

[@lastditch727]

And you barely show the finished piece? Zz

[@FaakedLillebror]

Whet cherry

[@johnstruck8263]

Obvious trick videography. There is no way he did that in three minutes.

[@Gun5hip]

O RLY?

[@jamestownsend6657]

Working without eye protection? WTH!

[@sportsdreams.7805]

3 minutes in video, not in real life
