Kent. Great refresher on the methods you have shown in other videos. I have some red oak on the lathe that I have left sitting (and drying) after I rough turned the outside. 😢 The cracks are pretty deep and I need to fix them before I finish rough turning the inside. I am going to use the glue/saw dust method. I had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder. Chas

[@allyncross6973]

Hey Kent, I had this problem today. I was making mortar and pestles and one of the blanks had a huge knot. I love knots because they look so awesome when finished. So of course I cut the mortar like I would any other bowl. Well as luck would have it part of the knot busted out and shattered to pieces just as I was finishing up. So my solution was to use Gorilla Clear Super Glue (it does not stain the wood BTW but does take a bit longer to fully dry) on all the remaining parts of the knot. I ended up with a bowl with hole rather low in the side which I had to finish with sand paper (as I said I was almost done). Since it could not be used as a mortar, who wants a mortar that the ingredients will fall out of, it is now an amazing candle holder for votive or tea light candles and my girlfriend loves it. Thanks for the idea about the wood glue and sanding. That is very cool I will try it the next time I deal with cracks. Yall have a wonderful day.

[@kevinbooth2063]

Kent, I have used the CA and glue. It worked like a charm. I have not tried the epoxy as of yet. I have not had bad enough cracks or voids yet. I know that in time I will run into this situations. To any that have not signed up for your online courses don’t wait. You will kick yourself after you struggle for awhile then signup only to find out that the frustration could have been avoided. Don’t ask how I know. Kent knows it’s called the school of hard knocks. Thanks Kent for all of your help.

Hi, good video. I like all of these methods. I’d like to share what I do on bowls that have cracks that appear going from the rim toward the foot. I drill a 3/8 in hole thru the crack with a fortsner bit. Then with my dowel bit, make dowels of contrasting wood and use titebond to glue it in place. Most of the time it stops the advance of the crack.

[@beardedwoodpecker]

Hello Ken turned a bowl and filled the voids with brass powder wife saw it and her reaction was….That’s cr@ρ… .After watching your video I will go with the 5 min epoxy and walnut fine dust lets hope the lady will be satisfied:):) Thank you for sharing your knowledge on youtube All the best Yiannis (Athens Greece)

Sounds good Mitch. Happy Turning!

[@qapla]

Kent, another informative, helpful video. Thanks. Another method if the cracks are large enough and still on the flat wood before turning, you could bowtie them for an interesting effect. I like the idea of using 5-minute epoxy when you want to deal with the crack/hole while turning

[@johnmarkelewicz5495]

Good video Kent, I use used coffee grounds as a filler with CA glue. I also regrind them finer to get down into small cracks better.

Used coffee grounds and five-minute epoxy has been my go-to for years. Espresso straight from the package is good for finer cracks. I had trouble grinding regular coffee grounds.

[@gggbon]

Nice trick with wood glue. I tried like this but also adding a bit of water to thin it. Titebound says no more than 5% or it decreases strength but here I don't know if it really matters as you don't really need the glue to be full strength. The thinner glue makes it easier for filling small cracks. I also tried rubbing with a bit of wood shavings but that didn't make a huge difference, just mabe reduced the sanding time.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Great tip! I wasn't aware of the thinning with water issue. Thank you, and Happy Turning!

I use a 3/8 fortsner bit to drill along a crack and glue standard dowels in the holes. I do this when the bowl is roughed in….works well and makes nice designs.

[@jarmstrong2843]

Kent, you present some very good ideas; ideas I have used in the past successfully. However, there is a fourth alternative that I have found to be successful, as well. A lot of the wood I turn typically has many large voids and cracks. I will fill the cracks in the way you demonstrated, but I will leave the voids like knot holes or where punky wood removed, etc. In doing so, the bowl takes on a uniqueness that Mother Nature caused. I incorporate those openings as part of the piece and let it go; I do nothing else other than sand and finish. I have sold many bowls doing things this way and people seem to like what I have done. And, from time to time, I will use a resin & color to fill the voids if the wood is a little bland and does not have much character. But, I also think resins can get a little pricey and if one turns a lot of bowls with voids like I typically do, the costs of buying resin can add up quickly. The same could be said for epoxies. Most folks that I sell my turnings too use bowls for decorative purposes only. The voids in the turnings seem to add a character they apparently find desirable. But, I also say go with whatever floats your boat.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Great point J. Yes, going natural is always nice too. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

[@jenskrossig6101]

You can also fill in diferent wood. If you have larger holes or cracks.

And as always… a great presentation! Thank you Kent. This comes at a very appropriate time. So much of my wood…maple , walnut, plum and cherry is cracking like mad. Yes I know, it was down to my storage method. But even so I have about the equivalent of a half cord of each of these drying under my deck, which in the summer is way too hot. So, I’m turning a lot of “cracky” wood. I often used your glue and sandpaper method, that I picked up from you some time ago. I now have two other great choices! Cheers, Rick

[@jimhyslop]

So, are you saying that wood isn't always what it's cracked up to be? 🤣🤣 On a serious note, I have a hunk of box elder which has some ring shake. Can that be stabilized (for example, with epoxy) or should I do something else with it? The wood is still green: the tree was felled in October, I put sealer on it in early December.

Hi Kent, great video quick question how long do you wait before surface finishing (oil, lacquer etc) after epoxy?

[@k9insomniac783]

I’ve been playing around with milliput recently as another option for larger crack/hole filling with mixed emotions. On one hand, the variety of color options lends to some interesting results. On the other side of the coin, if the milliput tends to need to be used in thicker or deeper cracks because when it is thin instances, it tends to want to crack and chip. I’ve also seen this newer product that is applied with a glue gun? Just some other options I’m sure you have already explored long before I ever knew of them. Super informative as usual sir.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Thank you for writing and sharing! Sounds like a colorful and fun option. I’ll check that out. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

When I use saw this for patching it usually looks really good until I put on a finish then it seems like it goes a lot darker than the rest of the wood .any suggestions thank you for the locker tip I'm going to try it next time I

[@k9insomniac783]

@@eldenwelchman6054 I’m sure you were probably asking Kent this question, but I have a couple suggestions if you don’t mind hearing them. I use two different products that don’t seem to effect the color of the milliput. One is Howard’s furniture polish which is just beeswax and orange oil. The other is pure Carnuba wax. I bought a nice sized piece from Amazon and it’s lasted me years. I’ve had good results with these.

[@keyflowerman9688]

Hi, love the in-depth videos. I've been turning pens for a while, but yesterday I started my first bowl. It ended up having a decent size crack. My first thought would be to try Durham's water putty. Have you ever tried that? I might use the colored epoxy method instead, but just curious if that would work. Thanks!

Interesting…. But what you say about filing a crack of 1/8 or 1/4 inch wide crack, say a couple of inches long ? Will the wood glue and sandpaper method work for something that wide ? Curious.

Yes it can. You might need to apply it in a couple of layers. Happy Turning!

[@pnwgrown_360]

Bro Kent my lathe doesn’t have that nob on the side to turn the chuck / faceplate on top head stock.. when turning larger blanks I am weary of my threads on the headstock / face plate / chuck getting stripped eventually.. :/ But I’m sure I can get the part to fix it, just kind of seems like a design flaw to me. I’m running the grizzly G0462 - first lathe I’ve had and getting great results so not in a hurry to upgrade but the lack of features like I described is a bit of a drag and the no reverse too! But with all that being said it’s been easy to learn on and not too difficult. It’s also belt driven but variable speed.. no direct drive! My plan is in a few years to get a robust tools lathe like yours as they seem super nice! If I can afford it 😂

[@jburton8170]

Kent, how do you deal with bubbles in the epoxy? Thanks for the instructive videos!

[@bassrun101]

Garry not Linda. J, you can carefully and quickly heat the surface of the resin with the flame of a propane torch or with a heat gun or hair dryer. It will lower the surface tension of the resin allowing the bubbles to escape. Be very careful to not scorch the resin or the wood around it with the torch. Small flame, keep it moving.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

A little light heat from a torch will do the job. Happy Turning!

[@doylepugmire5180]

I have used about every method known to man such as epoxy, wood glue and wood dust, super glue, every type of filler such as glitter, stains, wood dust etc. that I could think of. I like a more “natural look” instead of artificial colors and wood shavings. I sometimes use colored super glue on “very fine” cracks. What I have gone to is a 50/50 mix of wood glue and very finely ground coffee grounds. It gives an enhanced more natural look to the crack. I use this on large to very large cracks. I clean out the crack, mix up my concoction and force it down into the crack using a sharp point and pressure. I let it set over night and on large cracks usually have to fill in again as it will shrink. If you have a crack that goes all the way though to the inside of the turning just use tape on the inside to create a dam. When re-turbing use a very sharp tool and go lightly. I have had very good results and comments from customers and it has a nice natural look.

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Doyle, that sounds like a great process. Thank you for writing and sharing! Do you have issues with the coffee staining? Happy Turning!

[@doylepugmire5180]

no staining but it does shrink when drying so sometimes have to refil. Very hard and does not chip out.@@TurnAWoodBowl

[@tjraymer]

What direction should we sand if the crack we put wood glue in is on the end grain?

[@Restaura_con_Gianni]

On the directon of the rings, as he does...

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

If you are sanding down on end-grain, there really isn't a direction to sand, just do you best by sanding the surface.

[@johnwest9786]

I use all 3 of these techniques, however I have added another trick. I drill a series of tiny holes and stitch across with braided fishing line. You have a huge amount of choices at that point. Just a plain sewing job, you can do any type of stitching for patterns. Also weave into the cross stitching. If you choose the fiber based line, it can be died any color you want. It can be soaked with CA to add rigidity ECT ECT. Go explore the choices, and enjoy.

[@robertriley6213]

I have used this trick for awhile but I have a question , if the cracks continue to expand and make your work feel wobbly or off balance because it keels cracking will this gluing stop the crack from spreading ? Example I’m making a clock for a friend she wants it to be as close to the biggest diameter that my lath will do which is 16 inches so I started getting it round and it keeps getting wobbly I found the crack going from one side through the middle towards the other side, normally that blank would be put in the fire pit so I will wait to hear your response before I toss it out

[@robertriley6213]

Sorry for spelling voice to text does not always work to my benefit

[@TurnAWoodBowl]

Robert, if the crack is continuing it's probably because the wood isn't dry. I'd work on getting it as dry as possible first. Hope that helps. Happy Turning!

[@robertriley6213]

Thx for responding the blank was in a tin shed for about 5-10 yrs according to the gentleman I got it from , I checked it with the moisture reader and it was between 7-8 So I guess glue it and hope for the best and saying with a smile don’t stand in the path of flying projectiles

Yes, Uncle Owl (what type of owl are you? I love owls.) Once the glue is dry and new finish has been applied and cured properly, it should be food safe. Read all the info on the products. You might want to steer towards a "less chemical" glue. Hope that helps. Happy Turning!

Thnx, again! One can use soft stone (white alabaster) and ca-glue as alternative for epoxy. Or mix woodglue with fine shavings or wooddust to a thick paste (longer to dry). Third and last: mix wooddust with bakingsoda (3:1) as a filler with ca-glue: the glue reacts (rather quickly) with the bakingsoda to a very hard substance: the wooddust will make it a bit softer and will match color.
