Thanks Glenn Your tutorials are very helpful for new turners. I've passed you contact info to a young fellow, Mr. Mike Murdoc, who just bought his first lathe. Mike is 70 years young this year. Your calm and methodical explanations are perfect. All the best Dan Webster

Great use of the skew to unwrap your bowl blank in the beginning. LOL. I have always loved your version of this piece and the history behind it. Exceptional instruction as always. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Elizabeth, The skew is not much good for anything else other than opening cans of paint :)

Thank you for all the tips, the sanding pad discarding is really a good one for me, I find myself re-using pads.

Hello Glenn, you awesome and cool teacher. I want to start in Ethiopia east Africa.

Thanks, Glenn. This is a very nice video - great instructions. I also liked that you said something to the effect that, this is how you do it and there are other ways to do it. Some turners seem to think that their way is the only way.

The first educational video I ever purchased and the skills have been with me for years. Very cool of Glenn to share this.

I use Odies for five years and love it! When it comes to fluid ( I made several coffee cups) 2 layers 24 h apart is recommended and wait 3 weeks to fully cure it will stand against fluid really well. I’ve learned so much from your videos- thanks!

Greetings Glenn, remember when you 1st demoed this bowl in Saratoga Springs at Totally Turning several years ago and I supplied the blank which I still have the extras of, the story of signing Mike Mahoney's name after making a funnel still makes my side hurt from laughing and his also his when I mentioned it to him, interestingly he's the featured demonstrator this weekend at Totally Turning 2024.

Such a joy to see your work! It made me laugh when you said the Versaflo is 1000€, i was just looking to buy it last week because im getting more into production work and dust is starting to be a real issue. I got a quote at 1600 with discount here. Still way to expensive for me at this point. I learned from Stuart Batty’s video material and have adopted many similar habits i see you have, eg. Toolrest positioning on inside of bowl. It helps to see you work and to confirm the habits are good, it is something i would still question if i was just on my own, but when I see someone as experienced work in this way, it really helps to keep on practicing in the same way and not question the method as much.

Thank you, My Versaflo is 5 years old now and I talk in old money :). Stuart is a superb turner but unfortunately I have not seen him turn much as I always seem to be demonstrating when his sessions are scheduled at a symposium we both attend.

Yes, i knew immediately that you were talking old money, that is also why it made me laugh:) What would you reccomend in terms of PPE on a tighter budget? 3M does offer a full face shield with the dust mask at around 150€. Currently i am using the 3M dust mask with replacable filters for sanding and finish turning (i have reasonably good dust extraction), and protective glasses with a rag to cover my nose for rough turning. What is a good faceshield to replace the rag and glasses? I like the idea of a traditional faceshield for rough turning, being able to breathe without the mask. Does it fog up inside? The glasses do, and obviously they get wet on the outside as well. Thank you. Also i just realised you posted the picture of the beech log on the forklift the other day, having split it with the chainsaw!😮 Fun times 😂

Thank you, great teaching..

You are welcome Mark. I hope all is well for you.

For unknown reasons my first bowls were all closed forms, it was hard for me to switch to the open stile most turners make, but I’ve got it down now. The history would be interesting to explore how clay influenced wood or the other way round, or access to material influences these objects

Fantastic demonstration as always!! Always good to see your videos pop up in the KZread suggested. Hope you and your family are well and things are good in Ireland? Cheers!!!!

When centering face plate , i insert a dowel that fits in the centre of the drive plate with a heavy pin in the center of the dowel that sits in the compass point hole , it keeps the plate from drifting while drvng in the screws

I saw a turner use a spur drive through the centre of the faceplate to centre it.

Wonderful work, your explaintions and performance, Lucas!! But would you explain, why you - and many other woodturner - always work on the edge of the rotating grinding Pad? I like your englisch speech against the terrible US american quee.quee of most US turner Videos 👏. Love greetings! Thomas

I work between the centre and the outer edge of the pad which uses all the disc as it rotates. Working on one side has the disc coming up meeting a bowl coming down. Using the whole pad at once makes circular scratches.

Hi Glenn, this might be a stupid question but I was always told that there was no such thing as if I'm thinking it then so is someone else so here goes. Walnut oil as a finish. Is it the same stuff as the walnut oil that I can buy in my supermarket?

I am told that Walnut oil from the supermarket is not the same but no harm in trying. Leave a little in a shallow dish by the window and if it hardens after a month then it is doing what it needs to.

I actually prefer the faceplate for most of my work but in situations where I don't want screw holes like a lamp base blank, then a screw chuck is preferable.
