One gouge to rule them all... part 1

Very informative. Thanks.

Lovely buddy! Sorry I did not holler sooner!

It’s incredible how quickly you can take off a ton of material

Great vid. I don't get to cut wet wood often, and always love seeing those curls. When I got started I got a very similar 5/8" gouge with fingernail grind, along with a 5/8 "traditional"/"bottom of the bowl", and a 1/2" 40/40. The 60 deg is by far my most often used (and two years in it is very noticeably shorter). I see the uses for the other two, but I do far more work with the 60 deg fingernail. I'm looking forward to your next vid on shear scraping and agree that's another place this gouge really shines!

IMO other wood turners probably won't mind a long video. I prefer single longer educational videos to multiple shorter ones. And still to this date after years of turning, my favorite grind is the 40/40 grind.

Very informative video. Question for you. What brand is the gouge?

[@gregmcateer8752]

That's really clear, Scott, thank you. Can I check - is the 60 degree referring to the bevel sharpening angle, or the sweep back along the wing?

[@alexanderdesigns814]

It's the bevel angle. The swept back wings are likely not 60 degrees.

@alexanderdesigns814 thanks, mate

Why shape of flute does your bowl gouge have?
