I can see Quite clearly that Your scew chisel is an extension of your hands. I just have to say what you have known for 10 years( I'm guessing)is what every man wants: to be ONE with the tool in his hands; to think it, and it happens. Too bad that too few are ready to do what it takes o get there: time on the lathe till you know what is going to happen, before it happens. We are made in HIS image, who was like this, creating the creation: THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE.

jake what is the angle you prefer on your skew and do you have one that you prefer over the other,,like the alan lacer one for example,,thank you
@jakegevorgian6 жыл бұрын
Dear Jeff, thank you for the question! I don't keep consistent angle on the "skew"l, however as long as it is skewed (anywhere from 90° to 45° exaggerated). However, it is important to note that what matters is the angle of the bevel. This too is an estimated angle. The idea is to "sweep" the bevel as back as possible, so that way the "V" cuts are deep. Skew is really a versatile tool that can be used in many different ways and applications. For example, my most favorite skew is the Oval skew by Robert Sorby, because it's lightweight, sharpens fast and has swept back and thin blade that maneuvers easily. However, when it comes to large diameter and long spindles, I tend to get a bit of vibration on the lathe. This vibration doesn't let me use the Sorby oval skew effectively, so that's when I use a heavy skew by Alan Lacer. To be honest with you, Lacer's skew is a wonderful tool that doesn't catch that easily, but I have changed the rounded "skew" to a straight skew, as I have trained myself not to catch anymore (most of the time, in reality, but not always :) With this said, Lacers skew also good for beginning, but then once advanced, it can be modified. I also wish that Alan Lacer had two rounded edges on his skew chisel, sometimes I like to make a deep V groove, but because Lacer's skew isn't rounded, it scratches my tool-rest ever so slightly.

jeff oldham mine is about 1-⅛”. To be honest with you I only sharpen it on a flat diamond stone, that’s why I’m not used to grinder sharpening. However, couple of months ago I saw a video where Tormek grinder came up with a new jig system designed for oval skew. It was amazing the way it made things so easy. On another note, I will be done with my current projects and will have time for woodturning videos. I will show how I sharpen my skew on a flat diamond sharpening stone.

Some narration as to angles, bevel, technique, explanation of what caused the starting catch, or ANYthing would have been helpful. The camera angle & filming were good, but it would have been helpful to know just what you were demonstrating with each cut. If you don't want to talk on camera, that's ok. On-screen text works well (or text in the info area), too, so we can learn more from you.

Nice turning, However, some narration would actually help a lot. Brendan Stemp has two videos on using the Skew where he EXPLAINS what happens and causes things like run backs. I've watched your video three or more times now and I just now figured out that when you cause the run back, letting go of the tool with one hand first, you are doing it, I presume, for safety. Then when you bring it back and present it to the wood you are trying to say "look, don't bury the toe" Why don't you explain this in words to accompany your examples? You technique is brilliant, explain what you do: "lift the handle here and rotate the tool..." etc.

His Skew videos are very good. However, you are a master with the Skew. This video was in my list of favorites. I was looking for another video, but decided to watch this again. I was trying to imitate some of the things you do, but without any explanation, it's a lot harder. I know the video is several years old, so I do not expect you to go back and add narration. However, a skew use video from you with narration would be excellent. You do a couple of things that he does not do/explain, like when you start making the V cut and then turn the skew, raise it, and push (?) to make a deep cut. Down the road such a video would be great. Thank you for your excellent work.
