I really like watching projects like these -- simple, elegant shapes and seeing the tool use and jam chuck fitting is very helpful.

A lovely little bowl. Very glad to see it next to its big brother. As always you explain your techniques with great clarity, my thanks. The socks, waxy and less waxy, keep doing socking good duty. Thanks for another entertaining and educational video.

Interesting tip about the grain direction and cutting the inside first. I will put that in my pocket and remember for a similar situation. Thanks

I had the pleasure of meeting Richard Raffan when I was a member of the Toowoomba and District Woodworking Turning Club, a group of fifty members hired a large bus 🚌 and the hire of the bus was included in the price.

It amazes me every time I watch you. I know you own a bowl gouge but I bet it is covered in dust.
@RichardRaffanwoodturning6 ай бұрын
This is an endgrain bowl so centrework techniques apply. I use bowl gouges for roughing down very large centrework blanks and hollowing crossgrain bowls.

Curious about your beeswax the block I buy is rather hard. Is there a way that you get the hard wax softer to get it into your rag
@RichardRaffanwoodturning6 ай бұрын
The wax is melted by friction on to and into the wood. The sustained pressure of the rag melts the wax further into the wood with surplus melting into the rag. Eventually the rag is so full of wax that, with some timbers, application of the waxy rag is sufficient.

Great looking bowls, Richard. I love making little ones like that also. I would really like to know what oil you used to fill the end grain with. It was obviously quick and easy to use. Thank you!

I'm trying rice bran oil and it seems to be ideal.

Lucky nuts! I see you changed up your usual decoration on the bottom of the bowl. Any reason for that?
@RichardRaffanwoodturning6 ай бұрын
Endgrain usually gets grooves because they're quick and easy, crossgrain gets gouge-turned or scraped beads for cleaner cuts.
