One of the most illustrative lessons on turning a larger size bowl I really appreciate all the detailed information as I am learning from from a beginner

[@MrGM10]

A really attractive piece Kent, thank you very much. Graham UK

[@peterjenne3552]

Love black cherry. A friend of mine let me cut down an 80' tree this past November. I have 8 six foot logs to process for turning and flat work. I slabed the first 22" diameter log into thick slabs (4" & 5") to cut into bowl blanks. Two of those slabs produced 21 blanks. 12 small and 9 large blanks. Just started rough turning the small ones for twice turned bowls. This wood cuts like butter. Even a rookie like me can turn these into beautiful bowls.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Peter, wow, that sounds like a special tree. Enjoy and Happy Turning!

[@martintheron1386]

You lucky boy

[@user-zm8kb9ck5h]

Beautiful work! thank you for this wonderful video.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Rogster559]

A beautiful job , but wouldn’t the feet be a bit brittle, could you reinforce them somehow without it showing , love watching you work and narrate on what you are doing and why , you make it very easy to understand

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Good question. Actually they are pretty durable. They are thicker than they might appear. This will depend of the wood species as well. Harder woods are best. Happy Turning!

[@thefish5861]

I actually like to keep the bowl thickness a little fatter at the bottom so that the bowl has better balance and sits better.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

That can help. Happy Turning!

[@garytompkins3761]

Excellent, beautiful. I have some Cherry and think I will try the feet thing. (As soon as my carpal tunnel release incisions heal up). Years of using hand tools and vibrating machinery have taken their toll.m Still loving your very instructional videos

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Wonderful, Gary! Take care and heal up soon. Happy Turning!

[@burnleyize]

Nice, Kent. Thank you! As for your “ sharpening” course, I highly recommend it to anyone that needs a little ( or a lot!) of help sharpening. Even has some info for more advanced turners. One thing I do different. IN MY EXPERIENCE, the tenon needs to be at least 45% of the widest diameter of the bowl. The larger diameter cuts down on vibration a bit. Just my opinion, and I realize that there are more than one way to “ skin a cat.” Best wishes, and Happy Easter ‘24

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you for the kind words and the info! All the best to you and Happy Turning!

[@susanburrows5288]

Lovely project. The feet give it more of a different look/feel than I expected.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, I agree. ;) Happy Turning!

[@markduggan3451]

Very impressive.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Mark! Cheers!

[@jeanlong4285]

You are right, it is absolutely beautiful . I love the feet. Thanks for sharing Kent

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

You are very welcome, Jean. Happy Turning!

[@dennismcneill6829]

Nice! Adds more shape to an already beautiful bowl. A Dremel type tool could speed up the carving process.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Very true, Dennis! Happy Turning!

[@derchromebacher4366]

Cherry is very forgiving, easy to turn and looks pretty almost all of the time. I'd say apple is the same but tends to look boring on its own. Very nice bowl!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Yes, cherry is fantastic to turn. Happy Turning!

[@ivanbukh7576]

Hello, Kent! As always, a great job! I think that if you sharpen the cutter not on the circle, but on the grinder, then you will not have to remove the heel?

[@lanecobb4150]

Kent, why not use a coping saw or a fret saw instead of the flat Japanese saw?

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Lane, you can do that. Do what works best for you. Happy Turning!

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

Seems like a Dremel tool could be really useful for the feet cutting

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Definitely! Use what works for you. Happy Turning!

[@That_is_for_me_to_know]

Instead of chiselling the bark away, I have used a Forster drill (slightly bigger than the diameter of the drive spur) to give a flat surface to grab plus it gives a centre to locate.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

That's a good option. Thank you for writing and sharing!

[@davidsuitor]

Best title ever: "Firewood With Feet"

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, David. ;) Happy Turning!

[@andyoverall1951]

I like it, Kent, and you turned that cherry nice and thin.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, and Happy Turning!

[@theangrywoodturner9972]

Love it! I have turned 4 feet on a black walnut bowl and was stunning. Keep up the great content

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you for writing and sharing! Sounds fantastic! Happy Turning!

[@paulcrew1314]

I feel like I'm a long way from attemptinga footed bowl. I'm just happy if I can turn out a completed piece which is nice to hold and can function well

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Paul, you'll get there. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

[@chrisstearns10]

Hey Kent, bowl looks great with feet. Looks like your chisel needs a sharpening 👍👍

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Always, Chris. ;) Happy Turning!

[@bobbynash282]

5:38 Happy Easter ! I love working with cherry, mine is wild so may be different. Its hard to believe all this incredible information is for free. I learn so much here, just need time to apply. Hopefully improve all the time. Love your work, its beautiful.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you, Bobby! All the best to you and Happy Turning!

[@joeblack4388]

1:40 hi I am new to your channel liking what I see I am interested in your finishing mixture of linseed oil and beeswax would like to know what the proportions are thank you

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Hi Joe and welcome. I don't make my own I use Tried and True brand. Check this out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKDdl4B9pc1_i68

[@tielkgate]

Very Nice Kent! I'll have to give that a try. I just yesterday acquired some Ornamental Cherry, and it's still very wet, but I will give that a try with feet once I am able to turn it. Lowell

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Lowell, Thank you for writing and sharing! You can do it! Happy Turning!

[@MASI_forging]

Love this project. You did a great work 👍👍

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@LewisKauffman]

Very nice, Kent!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you kindly, Lewis. Happy Turning!

[@ArtHailey-ye3vx]

Normally I’ve seen you burnish the finish when using Tried and True Original. Did you do that on this piece? If so, how?

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Art, yes, by hand later. Happy Turning!

[@fallentreewoodcrafts]

Love this project. I have done a bowl with three feet but not like this one. I've done three corners three foot bowls using a cube turned corner to corner. I will try the 120 degree method you show and see how it goes. No black cherry available in my area, shucks! I would love to see you do a cube turning sometime. Your skills and instruction method would be a great way for other turners to learn how. Thanks.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you for writing and sharing! Good luck trying the feet. You can do it. Happy Turning!

[@jackthompson5092]

Beautiful Kent.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thanks, Jack. Happy Turning!

[@robertnorthrup1914]

Happy Easter. Remember He is Risen! But now onto turning. I made my tool depth gage similar to yours. In our Turning Club most advanced turners use a block or piece of angle set the appropriate dimension from an edge. Helps with repeatable depths but I also realize there are many ways to sharpen.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

That is awesome, Robert! Yes, there many different ways. Use what works for you. Happy Turning!

[@kathdiyetoirinakshaghor]

Thanks ❤

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

You're welcome, Kath! 😊 Happy Turning!

[@chuckwalton2868]

Hi Kent, Chuck Walton from Wisconsin. I love cherry too. I don't know if you've got a lotta cherry. I have access to some good cherry burls. Let me know if you'd like me to send a nice one your way.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Hey Chuck, um, YES! What turner could possibly say no to cherry burl??? ;) Our cherry trees are not too large here and burls are rare. Thank you, and Happy Turning!

[@chuckwalton2868]

I'll see what I can do. We have a lotta cherry here. People occasionally just drop their burls off in my yard. Nice problem to have. Chuckw

[@drewclements04]

Hey Kent, question. You use a jam chuck to turn off your tenon. Why not a faceplate? I struggle with a jam chuck creating a slight burnish ring in my bowl. I have tried foam, a cloth, blue shop towels, light and heavy pressure on the tail stock, sharp tools... The whole 9 yards, still have to sand out that burnish mark and sometimes it doesn't sand out perfectly. Any tips?

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Good question, Drew. Perhaps the tailstock needs to be tightened? If the jam chuck is turning and burnishing the bowl interior, there isn't enough pressure being applied from the tailstock. That's my guess. See if that helps. Happy Turning!

[@drewclements04]

@@TurnAWoodBowl thanks! I'll give it another shot and see what happens! Thanks!

[@TurnAWoodBowl]
