HOW TO TURN A BOWL __ Tutorial on how to use BOWL GOUGE on cross grain work.

Everything about using bowl gouge in one video, hopefully it will be helpfull for everyone who is starting out or has to bring back a little lesson😀.
Bowl gouge I use is m42 from Crown tools and its there short version for smaller scale work but I highly suggest if you are in the market for one that you go for regular handle.....
Once again thank you very much for all the support.
Enjoy

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

I really appriciate that ☺️

[@dapperdave4952]

Came here for just a sip from Tomislav's knowledge fountain...what I received was a firehose full of wisdom, tips and a few tricks...now to apply the information and see what works for me. Two thumbs on on another great video Sir.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Extremely big thanks for lovely words sir.... Really appriciate that and to be able to help out

[@CARLOSTREUIL]

Thank you for directing me to see this video. It answered many questions about sharpening tools and bowl turning. To date I have only done spindle turning, but this video encourages me to spread my wings.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

No problem, thank you very much for watching

[@JamesCouch777]

I use a variety of tools, many of them I made myself, that I use more than I use a bowl gouge. But I rarely turn a uniform blank like the one in the video. When I need a special tool I just make what I need. However this is an excellent tutorial for using a gouge 👍👌

[@ianmoston3340]

Hi I found you a week or two ago and have the Richard Raffan books, I would like say you are a breath of fresh air, the way you put an in depth approach is easily understood. I cannot believe how much I’ve learned from you so much so that I have ordered my new Record Coronet herald and it has arrived today. I hope you keep posting for all who want to learn this wonderful skill. Regards Ian from Leeds West Yorkshire England.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Ian very much 🤗 enjoy your new lathe,its a nice lathe 🤗

[@christopherharrison6724]

You’re absolutely right it’s only the edge that does the cut as long as the secondary doesn’t get in the way it doesn’t matter.

Hello Tomislav, I have learnt something from you again today. Even though I'm quite good at turning bowls, I always set the gauge incorrectly when scraping. I will do better from now on and hold the handle lower. The difference is really enormous. Thank you once again for your extremely instructive videos. You are not only an excellent turner but also a great teacher. Greetings Andreas

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you Andreas, I'm glad to be able to help out ☺️

[@user-sc7hb1ci9m]

Tomislav bonjour .Cette vidéo m'aide beaucoup car l'affutage et moi cela fait deux...De la matière ,j'en mange énormément et cela réduit considérablement la longueur des ma gouge...Je vais m'appliquer ce matin à essayer de réparer mes erreurs de débutant ,quitte à regarder plusieurs fois la vidéo afin d'arriver à quelque chose de correcte. Alors oui cela aide beaucoup car quand on débute on a besoin d'apprendre et d'être conseillé. Un grand merci Tomislav car vous pensez aux apprentis tourneur. La façon d'utiliser la gouge également...Je comprends pourquoi elle fiche le camp...je m'y prend très mal...Une très bonne année my friend.👍

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much for kind words and support 🤗, I would advise to just practice and repete and you'll get better with each bowl.... Enjoy your time on the lathe

I’ve only just started to turn wood and it frightens the life out of me as I’ve had a few bad catches.

I started shaping some of my bowl gouges in this manner and it has been a game changer for me! I've been wanting to do it for quite some time and I am just now getting enough confidence in trying this grind. You are correct Tomislav in saying it might not look so good but it performs for me. The difference is rather remarkable! Thanks again for the videos you make. between your channel and Richard's I am always learning something. Can't take it all in at once though gotta let it digest a little. Lol. Thanks again Tomislav and hope you enjoy your day.

[@MP-ou7lb]

In Minute 24:50 you describe how to apply the forces with your left hand. At the beginning (and sometimes still now) I struggle not to apply pressure. I have a suggestion for another video, focusing only on the force of the left hand: 1. Show the correct application of the push-cut again. Also do it with ONLY the right hand, if possible. This shows clearly, that the left hand theoretically is not needed. For fun I was thinking about hanging a weight with a string on the gauge to apply gravitational downward force and try to do the whole cut with only my right hand. ;-) 2. Show what happens if you apply pressure with your left hand to the wood (do it wrong). Make a full outside cut from base to rim. Show, how the bouncing gets worse and worse, the more you come to the rim of the bowl. Show the extreme bouncing with the camera close to the gouge tip, ideally in slow-motion. Put a black pen to the outside of the bowl. Stop the lathe to show the spirals that occured. 3. Show what to do, if the bouncing has startet (correction of a false start). My experience is, that you will nearly never get it under control when you try to restart the cut in the middle of the bowl. If the bevel ist riding on a bouncy surface, I never manage to make it better on the way up. The only successful ways for me (so far) was: a) start again at the very beginning, at the foot). b) take a scraper to remove the bounciness, then go back too the gouge. c) if I feel the boucing starting, I stop pushing forward completely and stay at the same spot for a few seconds to give the gouge time to get it round again, but this doesn't work very often and it leaves a visible line.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

[@MP-ou7lb]

31:00 For me as a beginner it makes sense to ONLY use the push-cut. Why? Because I still need practice, so using the push-cut to rough-shape the bowl I can train the correct position of my feet, the right feed rate and holding of the tool. When i come to the finish cut, I re-sharpen my gouge and with the practice of the rough cuts just 2 minutes before I find it easier to accomplish the finishing pass. For a very experienced woodturner this surely is not neccessary anymore.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Nothing wrong going that route, that is the beauty of turning, so many ways of same results

Came back to add this: I’ve struggled since beginning my woodturning to understand how to effectively use a bowl gouge. I have two, but have been exclusively using my EasyWood tools with the carbide tips. Results were good, but tons of tear-out. I watched your video, and the “open/closed” and numbering you demonstrated just CLICKED for me. I made a pretty awesome bowl after that, minimal tear-out! THANK YOU SO K”MUCH!!

Hi Tomislav, that was a interesting way that you corrected you tool sharpening. your definitely not afraid of the push cut...lol. the clock theory was helpful. I do not have a chuck for bowl turning yet. I believe you had the Record Power DM320 before which , is what I have now; do you know by chance the size of chuck for the DM320? I guess I should contact Record Power for advise. Thank you for the video. It got my interest now for bowl turning. Ken

[@crackerjack3359]

If you take a bigger cut with the push cut you will remove as much wood as with the wing cut. Because the push cut is bevel ghosted you also get a smoother finish.

[@gregsheath7151]

Thanks for your time in producing these videos, I know it takes you away from your production turning, however rest assured and many other turners very much like and appreciate what you’re doing.

I have never been able to get a good clean cut on the bottom of a bowl with a scraper. I am wondering now much difference your 45 degree bevel makes compared to my 65 degree bevel. Also, I probably should try that grind on my gouges. I only have the open V flutes from Thompson and D Way. I don't think I have any parabolic fluted gouges. Think it will work?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

It should work , as I did have few years ago from Record power V gouge, looks a bit different and it can be maybe different to blend straight V sides on continues curve on the asymetric grind.....

Hey buddy. Great video. Quick question.. How many times did you sharpen while you did this video? Or just a Estimate how many times would you sharpen on a bowl that size? Thank you.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

Thank you very much for watching, on this bowl I sharpen only once before start to turn, and then later I did remove the heel but didn't sharpen it... Depends on wood I'm working with, example elm that we have has a tone of mineral in it and even when it was wet I had to sharpen 2-4 times per bowl, and sometimes on more standard timbers I sharpen once on every 2-5 bowls.... Thats mostly for green ones , if its dry then I sharpen more often as I'm doing final product and I want to have best surface possible, hope that helpes ☺️

Do CBN wheels remove less metal than a standard white wheel that comes with a slow grinder?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

I think they do, depends on the grit although cbn grits are sharper so they can take a lot of steel fast, again depends on the grit 😀

[@Monstrito59]

Thank you for your reply on that. I think 180 is what you and Richard use as well as a few other people I watch on KZbin and that seems to be good enough.

[@2363joey]

It's alot different for me, I'm lefthanded, do you have any recommendations for left-handers ?

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

I know a few left hand turners, they all have this issue but unfourtually they all kept practicing as its more of the right hand trade ... I do think that you might work out something if you have 360 rotate head stock.... But then be aware of locking the chuck for reverse rotation

[@2363joey]

I don't have the 360 degree spindle but I usually take the tailstock off and move the spindle to the end so I can stand directly in front of the bowl

[@nemoemanon6679]

Sprague Woodturning is a left-handed turner on KZbin. He turns from the other side of the lathe. Some of his videos deal with left-handed turning with respect to chucks, etc.

[@tomislavtomasicwoodturning]

@@nemoemanon6679 excellent reccomendation, thank you for that

[@99baobab]

Если закрасить внутреннюю часть резца . тогда будет лучше видно его положение относительно заготовки!!!

[@krperry2007]

Do you ever bring up the tailstock for extra support, or can you depend on the screw? I'm sure it's an experience call. I'd tend to use the extra stiffness until it's more balanced. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJ6Zh4iDhaaEm7M
