In my opinion, the best beginner wood turning video I’ve seen. Thank you

[areareare]

This was really pleasant to watch - though I could totally see myself whittling away a block of wood to nothing, just to watch the cool effects.

Made a weird mistake today turning my first bowl that scared me from pursuing. Watching this made me feel more relaxt to finish my bowl tommorow!

[deanfinnie]

I'll be getting my first lathe early next year so I'm soaking up as many videos as possible and this was really helpful. Thank you!

I'd watch Colwin make a paper aeroplane. The guy is so relaxing to watch.

[charlieburks]

Exceptional instruction! I’ve turned pens and smaller stuff but am definitely going to apply your video to start turning bowls!

[tcbdrummer]

Great video with clear and concise steps. The production quality was well done as well. THANKS!!!

[OOAK-Ireland]

love the way you show. one of the best videos of most woodworking that I have seen

[paulr]

A nice commentary explaining what you were doing with the tools. An ideal video for a
beginner like myself. Thank you.

Thank you for a straight forward explanation of how to turn a bowl I’ve learnt from this exercise regards Martin

I've done a fair amount of spindle turning, but never any bowls. Bought a decent lathe recently that came with a nice chuck and a bunch of other extras. I've watched dozens of bowl turning videos that SHOWED the turning of the mortise with which to mount the bowl to the chuck, but did not EXPLAIN anything. This is the first I've watched that does that, so thanks!

[cathypetch]

Very helpful, thank you. Made my first bowl. It's a little heavy on the bottom but I can only get better from here.

[jimhogan]

This is one of the best beginner videos I have seen. Now to go turn my first bowl.

[josephhickman]

This is the BEST step by step video I have come across! Awesome teaching. I will follow this step by step!

[shakumba]

This video is done very well. Step by step an very complete and uncomplicated. I made my first two bowls in the last week and am on my 3rd. Thank you for a job really well done.

[paulspencer]

Great video thoroughly enjoyed watching that. You make it look so easy.

Just got my first lathe and this is my first video tutorial and will be the first thing I make! Thank you for the clear instructions! Kia Kaha! -from Aotearoa (New Zealand).
