Very cool Gary. So very nice to see you touching bass with an old KZbin friend! Thanks for the glue up trips with a small bowl blanket!! Cheers, Rick

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Rick it was a great time. I think the tenon's are really handy for a thin board. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@Secondlifeofwoodturning]

It was a short meeting but priceless. One of my dreams came true - to see with You, Gary 👍 For sure we have to reapeat it. All the best for You my Brother from another continent 💪🙏 Rav

[@ThePapa1947]

Hey Rav I feel the same way. Plenty of comments saying that part of the video was the highlight and loved it. So from another continent take care my brother. Gary

[@alangibb3100]

Gary that turned out a cracking wee Teak bowl with some very nice grain, well done.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Alan! I have some candle holders I turned many years ago from a teak plank that came off a ship that was being dismantled. Very pretty wood. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@TheMessyStudio]

Another beautiful piece, Gary! And it's always nice to meet our online friends in person.

Thank you Billy. Especialy from so far away.

Thanks so much Stephen and God Bless you as well. Gary

[@travisgreen3533]

I enjoyed the video Tem million years ago, I worked with a cabinet maker in Corpus Christi, Texas who worked for the same construction company I worked for. I got to help him work on some of the teak furniture he was making for the owner of the company. The owner had large planks of teak in a huge shed in the construction yard. I wish I had asked for some of it. Beautiful wood. Your bowl is really nice. That is neat that you got to meet with your friend.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Travis! It was not ten million years ago but many years ago I turned some candle holders(Sconce) from a piece of Teak that came from a ship. It was the rails they tied the ropes to. It had huge holes here and there for bolting it down. I made us a pair then turned our mothers single ones. It seems I have those back now. Might see if our kids my like something their grandmothers had that came from me. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@travisgreen3533]

@@ThePapa1947 I hope the kids are interested in them. It will be some good memories.

[@albertdawson6814]

Cool like always Gary. Yes I highly believe in the hot glue. Yes denatured alcohol just removes that glue for sure. Pretty piece. Thank you for sharing. See you next week

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Albert and I agree with everything you said. Take care, Gary

[@STMwoodturning]

YOU GOT TO MEET RAV!! That’s so cool!!! So glad he was able to come to the USA. Sorry Gary but seeing you talking with Rav is the best part of the video even though the little teak bowl was a nice one.

[@ThePapa1947]

Wait just a minute Stuart...Rav got to meet me 😊😊 Just kidding I was very excited to meet him. A down to earth carrying man . It was an honor. Sure happy it had. Gary

À great wee video Gary, full of good tips, especially for myself & my experience level & a nice wee bowl at the end of it. Nice to see you meet up with your mate after a while. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Awesome. Thanks for sharing the video of your friend. One day I will buy me a lathe. Nice bowl. Makes me want to eat a bowl of cereal now.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you John. I chose a simple turning for this as meeting him in person was the highlight of the symposium. Both Rav and his wife were fun to hang out with. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@tuffymartinez]

Thank You Gary.... This was a fun one ( Well Gary U were doing all the work & I'm just sitting here drinking coffee) Very nice show today on how to turn with out using the traditional holding techniques. I like this one and I am surprised at the holding power of hot glue and how quickly it can be removed.... Until Next Time Gary.... TM

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you tuffy. A lot of people do not trust hot glue. But it does work. Will I use it on a 20lb turning? Nope! But I trust it for what I do Thanks for watching, Gary

[@glencrandall7051]

I have trouble traveling across a couple of states to meet a KZbin buddy but he traveled half way around the world. It's really great when that can happen. Thank you for sharing your meeting. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂 PS The turning was pretty good too.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Glen It worked out well as he was going to meet his good friend in Seattle. And they had planned on the AAW and was hoping I would go. Well it was a very short drive for me (7 miles) only concern was if my ankle could handle all the walking. It worked out. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@AlienLeader4]

That is an awesome bowl. Very cool when you get to meet friends that you meet through the channel. I will check out his channel. Keep up the awesome work. 👽

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you very much. It was pretty cool for me. Especially since he lives so far away. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@calmwoodcreations3709]

Gorgeous wood, and a very attractive shape! I did a double-take when I saw the very nice shape. Several years ago, I turned a silver maple catch-all bowl that's a nearly identical match for your bowl, right down to the four ring grooves on the base. A happy surprise! 😲 😁 😂

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Dave. If you think it is a nice shape that's a fine compliment. I have seen some of the beauties you have done. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@michaelross8794]

Sir, as always, thank you so much for sharing. Every time I power up the lathe, I apply yet one more thing I learned from watching your videos. Your explanations are perfect. And, of course, you demonstrate/model such wonderful techniques. I pay very close attention to the tool angles and how the cutting edges contact the wood surface. And yes, your videos are ALWAYS greatly anticipated.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you very much Michael for your very kind words. They are much appreciated. Happy turning, Gary

[@copperowlwoodturning5929]

Beautiful bowl, Gary. 😊 nice to see the glue on tenon technique with DA removal too. How awesome it must have been to finally meet Rav. This makes me happy. 😊😊

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Rob. I do like the hot glued tenons. As long as I have some ready it sure makes it easy. It was great meeting Rav and his wife. We had a great time. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@danielbuck]

I would have never thought to use hot glue, I will have to try this! Seems like it would be quite a bit cleaner to remove than wood glue. Thanks for the video :-)

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Daniel. Just make sure the glue is hot. My gun will do 60 and 100 watts. Both work but I use 100 mostly. Gary

[@danielbuck]

@@ThePapa1947 thanks Gary! I will make sure it's hot!

Great turning, weirdly, we were cleaning my shed out today, and my wife found a piece of teak, so I'm going to have a go at turning it soon. Nice to see you meeting up with your friend.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you Mark. I was rearranging (cleaning up) and found another piece of teak. Years ago my nephew (an old man now lol) worked at a cabinet shop and gave me some wood from the scrap barrel. Had a good time hanging out with my friend. Thanks for watching, Gary

[@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop]

Well, OK, nice job on the Teak bowl, Gary! I always forget about sealer and then Ack's after. Quick, easy and food safe. I gotta remember that! But, the star of this video was you and Rav sitting side by side! How cool is that! I'm sure it was a special feeling and time for both of you. I'm so glad you could finally meet in person. Take good care, my friend and keep'em coming! 😊 Phil

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Phil. I picked that easy turning so I would be able to add the ending. Best for last. I asked Rav's wife to record it using my phone. They are both wonderful people. Next the glamor will be the wood 🤔 Take care buddy, Gary

[@MarklTucson]

That is a very nice piece Gary. Had no idea teak had that kind of figure and grain patterns. The dish shape is also very good. So neat that you got to meet Rav (sp?) in person -- that is one of the neat things about this maker community - the connections we get to make electronically and then sometimes in person.

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Mark. While straightening out one of my storage places for boards I found another piece of Teak. Who would have ever guessed we would have met in person. Thanks to Rav's friend in Seattle it happened. Take care, Gary

[@ThePapa1947]

Thank you my friend. I turned a number of matching sconces(candle holders) from Teak that came off a ship that was being scrapped. Beautiful wood. They still frame our fireplace after 50 years. For me the ending was the whole show. Take care , Gary

Glad you had the chance to meet your YT buddy in person. I could easily see that both of you were happy. I've used the hot glued tenon myself on small turnings. I have reservations, however, on using it on larger bowls, especially on my lathe which the slowest speed is 700 RPM. What do you think any limit of size and or RPM limits for this technique?

[@ThePapa1947]

Thanks Gil. I had this one spinning around 1200. Also have used it on decent sized segmented turnings. The bigger the turning the larger the tenon. Much more hot glue contact.

If you get the bowl too hot during sanding or aggressively drilling out the center with a large dia forsner bit it will also loosen up the hot glue joint and the bowl will depart the chuck! Leaned that the hard way🤣

If it is getting hot uou might be pressing to hard or spinning too fast. Both of prevent a good sanding job.

[@Zzrdemon6633]

@@ThePapa1947 Yes I have one of those generic wood lathes that the bottom speed is 600, I just keep a feel for the temp and it works out ok! I bought a dc motor to put on it but it's needs a lot of work to make it fit and time is scarce!
