I first learned some wood turning at school, when 14 years old. I finally managed to restart on my own lathe, after a break of some 60 years. Deciding on the Turning speed was a bit of a mystery, until a comment on one of Jimmy's presentations really brought it into focus. It was that if you hit grass with a stick, very slowly, it just bends out of the way, if you hit it fast, the stick will cut it! So, turning speed; fast as is reasonably possible, and slow it down where needed! Thanks jimmy. PS. My grandfather was a Geordie. He once told me how as a boy, he 'rescued' a load of wood blocks from a horse taxi rank, that were being replaced with stone. He took them home for firewood, but when burnt, the whole house was filled with a glorious smell, like a horses lavatory! 100 years of horses standing there for hours on end had impregnated them very thoroughly.

As it's winter.. and my shop is not heated, I have to watch vids rather than make chips. This is gorgeous, Jimmy. Another idea for spring. Used your ebonizing + wax idea on an ash vase.. came out stunning! Thanks for continuing to inspire!

Beautiful work as always, thank you for raising my turning level 10 fold 🙏 I've been challenged to turn a platter live on KZread this Saturday so I am here 😀 I'm a new turner that has never turned a platter before, I'm only allowed to use one tool plus a skew for my dovetail jaws. I don't know if you will see this comment but it would be great if came to see live for a little while 👍 I'm a Geordie too so you will understand me lol 😀

Jimmy, I have known you for good many years and knowing how knowledgeable you are and I always enjoyed the way you explain why's and how's, but this time I am not sure what happened and camera was too far at times. Hope to see you soon. Your friend from San Antonio,TX.

Hi Jimmy, nice work. A question to you, is the 24/36 that significant a step up over a 16/36.? I’ve had a 16/36 for several years but find that many of my customers are looking for platters instead of large bowls. Is the 24/36 worth the upgrade

Oops….really meant is the 2436 that much better than an 1836?

Jimmy, this is Chuck from the Detroit club, I was out ill when you were here. Anyway, I am looking for a new lathe. I turn and core around 50 bowl blanks per year, turn about 50 platters, and a bunch of other stuff. I am interested in your opinion of the Laguna 2436. I know you turned on the new PM3520 in Tennessee this year too. Based on what I turn, is the 2436 going to cut it.

Question: at 6:02-6:10. . . Why is Jimmy's angle so steep there... What was he trying to accomplish by presenting his tool in that manner? He's only at that angle for 10 seconds or so, and then goes back to a more level position.

I believe he is using a David Ellsworth technique for finishing using the right side of the gouge while the left side of the gouge remains about 1/16" off of the surface. Quite effective

Thank You Very Much, Fred Chase !! I did a small amount of wood turning in college, but am largely unfamiliar with the techniques of the pros. I've been thinking about buying a wood lathe for my shop and thus have been watching a lot of videos trying to pick up techniques and tips along the way. Fortunately there's some good info to be found (this video being one of them) so I think I'm in a pretty decent place. Researching David Ellsworth-Thanks for mentioning a Name I can look up- will be my next step. Take Care, Fred... and Thanks again!!
