Very informative video I love how you take the time and explain it

[chezlerq]

I love your videos and have learned a lot here.
This is a Great video on how to turn the perfect blank. Unfortunately, I rarely get such nice, even blanks; and I have to let the wood dictate how it will be turned ; so I can get the best looking piece of art, I can get the largest bowl possible, so I don't turn away all the best looking features and end up with a bowl so small I give it to my granddaughter for her doll house, etc, etc.
I can count on one hand all the bowls I've turned that I "Planned out" ahead of time. That doesn't happen in my shop.
I try to figure out how "Best" to mount the wood, and sometimes, I get that right. One nice thing about a lathe is that plans can change in the middle of a project. Usually not by my choice. I have to "Listen" to the wood.
You make it sound like most of us actually think the wood is really talking to us. Really, we don't. (at least, most of us don't, I think).??
We use that as a "Figure-of-speech". What we Do know is that sometimes the wood WILL dictate how it can and can't be worked.

I could be wrong, so I'm going to start listening a little closer to see if I can hear the wood talking. ;-)

Keep up the good work. I love your channel.

Beautiful Bowl, and a great tutorial.

[TimothyBowles-tqve]

The body movement is great but I'm learning from a wheelchair it can be done moving your hands and arms you just have to figure out how to do it

Bellísima pieza. Muy bien explicado como siempre. Gracias por compartirlo! Un abrazo

Beautiful bowl. Brilliant demonstration of how to let the blank speak to you😂.

Tôi rất ngạc nhiên với kĩ năng của bạn đó là bậc thầy của tôi tôi học hỏi được rất nhiều điều

Another great video. I like to think about having a conversation with the blank. The blank shows me what's on it's surface. I see what things suggest a shape, like you did with the bark inclusion. I'll "suggest" a shape that works with those features, and start on that. I'm turning wood that i've harvested (Thanks so much for the course and videos about Tree to Bowl) and many of the pieces have irregularities you might not get buying a $30 blank at a store. I'm exploring 3 different, pretty simple, shapes. So the wood has some say in which of those i make. With the help of your videos and some good instruction i'm past the days of having the blank and the tool tell me what shape they are making. That does not make nice bowls. ;-)

I have some bowl blanks speak to me. "Better move outta the way". I ll be glad to get to where your talking about. But thats probably will years of experience.

You mentioned sharpening several times through this bowl. When a bowl gouge squeaks on a cut, is that dull or am I pressing in too hard? How much pressure do you use to press in the gouge? I'm having a tough time getting consistent cuts.

[rickgibson]

I like tried and true finish as well. Do you only put I coat of finish on? I like to put 3 on but it ties up the lathe for a few days. I got your sharpening course a while ago and was wondering when you make changes do you make notes of what was changed or added so I don't have to go through the whole course to find the new material.

[mdlitz]

Thanks Kent. Great content. I’m always wondering what goes on in the mind of folks that really take the time to think about and design a piece before the gouge touches the wood. Thank you for your insight. Cheers.

[jeremyt]

Hi, Kent. Thanks so much for the inspiration. Are you using some sort of after market tail stock quill extension?

[tielkgate]

Kent - Another wonderful example of your turning skillsets. I love the spalting in that piece.
I was going to ask, What Grind do you have on your spindle detail gouge?

Great video as usual. I think it’s bark inclusion, not enclosure.

[KnotboredWoodworking]

Im thankful you told us how to make the bowl instead of using a bowl whisperer "hippy" video for entertainment. Many of us watch to learn how rather than entertainment only

[dronesoliveira]

Sou seu fã, conseguiria comprar uma goiva da dos eua

[robinrutherford]

Difficult to get blanks that depth in the UK

[zacbell]

Maybe I missed it, but did he tell us what kind of wood this was? Kind of looks like Walnut to me, but I'm not 100% on that
