nicely done. I'm a turner but I do make carved bowls too. I'd like to add one point of caution. those speedcutters especially the ones that are basically chainsaws on a wheel, have been responsible for some TERRIFIC injuries. They look so easy to use, but if you let it get away from you just slightly, they can really mangle whatever they touch. I've used a chainsaw for 50 years, and that is different. They are dangerous for sure, but you have bakes on moderns chainsaws, plus the cutter is further from you and more mass so it doesn't kick quite so quickly as a hand held grinder. In general the grinder works very well and can make you forget that at all times you keep BOTH hands on the tool.

Hi Paul, thank you. Yes I totally agree when using the cuter it need to be held tight with both hands. It can kick back very easily so you need to be concentrating fully when using it.

Thanks eamon I’m gonna try this one

That Ash wood cookie dried perfectly. I have a 14"x3" arbutus wood cookie I've been drying for a half year now that I had taken from a firewood stump, so one side was already seasoned and finely checked on that exposed end. I coated the cut end with wood glue and hopefully it dries out nicely and doesn't crack up on that side since I'm planning on using it for the seat of a stool.

@EamonWalshDIY

2 жыл бұрын

It took a couple of hours to make.

I've seen so many bowl making videos and it seems everyone uses tools. I'm starting wonder how people made these things before tools. I assume they'd have to carve it out, probably with some chisel-esque tool. I highly doubt one could use a knife to carve it out. That'd be like using a spoon to scoop out hard ice-cream. You'd just bend the spoon. I've bent enough spoons to know that'll happen. The only way I've found to get it out is by using a knife or something. Maybe they could do it that way. Make a hole in the center of the wood, making sure not to go all the way through. Then making diagonal holes, at a slope where the starting point of this diagonal slope is at the bottom of the bowl where the center hole is at and the top of the slope is at the edge of the bowl. Then you use a saw of some sorts that you turn and cut a dome shaped chunk out of the wood. I suppose that's still be a fairly triangular bowl, so I guess they'd probably use a chisel thing to make it more curvy or something more like a bowl. Then maybe cutting the bottom corners of the bowl a little to give it a curved bottom, then using a rock of some sorts to sand it down. I don't know how to make bowls, I don't even know if this'll work. It probably will, but maybe won't be very good. -oh yeah, and I suppose they'd also use a rock to sand down the inside of the bowl. If I can use a rock to smoothen another rock, I'm sure you can use it to smoothen wood. Of course, you'd need a strong rock. Which is quite easy to find. It's just hitting a rock against another rock. You'd also have to find the right kind of wood. A lot of driftwood or wood you'd find at the beach tends to be quite strong. Typically, if you find it fairly smooth, it's probably pretty strong. Maybe the other wood is stronger, but I don't want to get splinters. Rubbing a piece of wood against a smooth piece of metal or wood also smooths it out and kind polished it in a way. It's not really polishing, it's just making it very smooth. It makes it feel life soft fabric. That kind of smooth. It might just depend on the kind of wood though. The wood I've seen is usually a very pale, sand coloured wood. Sand coloured. Like a very light beige. (I know there are places that have different coloured sand).
