What a wonderful video. You have obviously thought carefully about the lighting and camera angle to show the positioning and control of the cutting surface of the tool. For many I am sure you have now made the definitive teaching aid for the skew in spindle work. Thank you for taking time out from your work to show such detail in the moves that seem second nature to you. The views of this will skyrocket for years to come. Thank you very much. ❤

Thank you, Mr. Tomislav! I made a huge mistake, recently, while turning a larger piece of cherry, to make a bowl. I got the log pretty rounded out but, when using my skew, I was holding the handle too level, when a crack opened up. It broke my skew, in my hand, spun the blade around, and the tang in me in the chest. Scary moment. It also sheared about a 1/3rd of the piece away. I’ve learned a lot from you, since.

This video is so helpful. Telling us where the tool rest is in relation to the spindle (exactly how high), where on the clock (example at eleven o’clock) is great information. Also, holding the refiner handle above center to have the cutting edge at center. Details like this can’t be discerned from just looking so thank you! A suggestion for future video is the angle or degree of the bevel of your various tools. I have a commercially made skew chisel similar to yours that’s called a Skewchi. Watching your video today, I suspect the angle of the bevel on mine should be a little bit steeper to make it easier to control. Again, I’m not sure my other spindle gouges are at the best angle. I know some of it is a personal choice for individual turners, but general guidelines would be appreciated. How does the angle of the bevel affect the cut, etc. I reached out to a local turning instructor to find a young helper. He told me his students were in their 70s and 80s. Looking around at other turners in my area I noticed they are all older people. Does anyone have ideas about how to get young people interested in turning?

I used to have a continental grind gouge and I liked it a lot. When it finally got too short to use I bought a spindle roughing gouge. The continental style gouge was what I first learned to use to rough out spindle blanks. Now I want another one.

@jayscott30619 сағат бұрын
Very good camera angles, Tomislav. That did a fantastic job showing us exactly how you present the edges, when we could see it. For example, when you start scraping or begin a sheer cut with a gouge on the face work, couldn't see it until it came around. But of course that's what we see most of the time so, I'm just saying but appreciate the different angle. There's one framing that I've always wanted to see, but it might depend on your recording camera. I'd love to see some deeper hollowing, and the only way I could see that would be with something greater than at least 150 mm lens on a regular DSLR, perfectly aimed over a tool rest and where the hollowing tool of choice is going to be. If you have a really good zoom, and can back the camera way up so that you could just barely position it looking over a tool rest and probably a scraper, that I think would be valuable for us to see what's going on in those deep situations.

Thanks for this video! As you were asking for suggestions: what I'm still struggling with when hollowing a bowl is the sides. I sometimes get grooves or swirl marks and I'm not exactly sure how to avoid them. Sometimes I get them, sometimes I don't but when I get them it's extremely annoying as I have to remove them SOMEHOW before starting to sand. Sanding them out takes a while 😅 A video regarding this topic would be greatly appreciated 🤗 Thanks in advance!
