Not just highly skilled and experienced,but a natural born teacher. What an amazing combination.😮😊

Kent - I’ve watched dozens (if not hundreds) of videos on bowl turning, and this is the first to explain where those $&@%*+% ridges on my bowl interiors were coming from! Thank you!

Thank you, you've consistently schooled me with your technique demonstrations, thus improving my skills. I'm a big fan of the Tried and true products you introduced to me. Keep on turning my friend.

I don’t see the Tried and True link….

Love how you explain all the steps and why for us beginners.

Thank you, John! Happy Turning!

Thanks Kent!

The grain and color are so similar to butternut. I agree, Tried and True should have you on the payroll and I’m going to tell them that. 😊 Yes! I do want to see them finish your bowl.

Kent, I've watched many of your videos, this is most impactful at this time for me, thanks!

A big thankyou on the tip about taking the heal off the bowl gouge bevel. I have had issues with mysterious tool marks inside my smaller bowls. It didn't occur to me that the heal was the issue. I'll be trying your tip. Thanks. Also, Mulberry is wonderful, so rich and warm in tone. One last thing... I watched this video while finishing a Honey Locust elliptical pencil holder I just finished this morning with Tried and True Danish Oil. Good stuff.

I absolutely love the way you turn bowls. I have learned so much from your videos that I will be applying to my work.

Another great informative video!

Thanks Kent. Great tip.

Thanks for all the great info.

Another great learning video. I rarely comment as it is not convenient to do so while viewing on Fire TV as my wife and I normally do, but we both always anxiously await each new video.

Beautiful finish; thanks for posting. Also, I watched your post on turning green bowls that was also excellent!

Turned out real nice. Love the grains - really pops! Interesting no ogee on the inside. Can't wait to see the finish. Thanks for sharing.

great job

nice job ..........thanks for tip

Very nice

Great tip Kent!! Thanks for sharing!

Excellent video from an excellent teacher. Thank you!

Beautiful work. I have 10 ft of 6 in thick Mulberry waiting to be turned. It's cool to know there's nice fiber waiting for me.

I love the ohh-gee shape of the bowl. Thanks for showing about taking the heel off the gouge. Going to check out the finished bowl. I know it will be beautiful.

Nicely done. I like the shape. And once you post the link to the finished product. I'll check that out also. Thanks for sharing.

OMG, it's been the heel all along!! 🤯 I can't wait to get back out in the shop and try it out for myself. Thank you for the tip!!🙏

Thank you for a great video. Slow down! Great advice.

Thanks! Having that problem myself.

Kent - I’m so thankful for you and your commitment for sharing your passion and talent with all of us. As a relative turning newbie, I continually find your tips helping me improve my technique and ultimately my results. Again, thank you for sharing!

Beautiful bowl! Like the ogee shape to it, very subtle. The mulberry reminds me of ash, nice grain to it. Now I know what causes the rings on the inside, it’s from the tool itself. Thanks for the information.

As always, you have produced a very informative video. You made one comment that I think everyone needs to pay attention to. Wearing a respirator when turning, no matter what type of air filtration system you use is VERY important. I always wear one when I am turning!

I learned from Glen Lucas as well, taking off the heel has helped me a lot and switching from a 45 angle, witch is what I use for most of the cuts to a 60 for the bottom interior of the bowl is the other thing that’s helpful, I think Mike Mahoney calls the bottom feeder

Where is the link?

Very nice Kent. Looking forward to seeing how the finish turns out. It is a beautiful piece. How do you determine how thick you want the sides will be on any particular piece?

Can I call it a jelly chuck, ‘cause jam don’t shake like that. Good video, very informative.

Good one! Yes, go for it! Happy Turning!

Dude your so awesome I love your videos man. And this one had some really good history in it too! Rad! I want one of your shirts lol !! I literally learned to turn off of your videos and now sell my work and make $$ who would have thought.

Thank you Kent! Another great video. I especially liked that you reminded us to reduce the heel of the bowl gouge. I have gradually forgotten about that and have been seeing more and more lines inside my bowls which have been requiring more and more sanding to get rid of. I believe your wheel is 80 grit that you used for reducing the heel. Is that correct? Thanks again!

I primarily use an Ellsworth grind on my 5/8" bowl gouge. When turning a small bowl, I also had those grooves you've mentioned. In the future will use your method of removing the heel. Is there any downside to removing the heel?

Great video Kent many thanks! Do you have a video on how you made your jam plate? I need to make one for myself!

I'm late to this party, but . . . All you need to do is cut a disk of 3/4 inch plywood and attach it to a faceplate. After the faceplate is on, put it on your lathe and true up the outer edge, sand it a little to knock off the splinters, and you'll be good to go. Nothing else is required.

What is the material on your jam plate to “grip” the bowl? Thanks much!!!!!

Do you have a video that distinguishes a scraping cut, sheer scraping cut, and pull cut? You mentioned dropping the handle, so I guess the sheer part describes the angle that the cutting edge is at relative to the tool rest. But a pull cut?

An OGEE on the outside, but a continuous curve on the inside. Do you ever turn an OGEE on the inside to match the outside?

Hi Kent, I have question. You use water to raise the fibers that are laying down. Would reversing the lathe and sanding in the opposite direction achieve the same result?

New to woodturning and am curious about the screen you have in behind you. Does that contain the dust/wood chips to a smaller foot print in your shop? What is it and where did you purchase it? I have a small space and need to control the dust!

How do you center the calipers for scoring the tenon? It looks like you could easily be off center.

Hi, what material is the black layer on your faceplate?

As always it turned out gorgeous. Aww I can't find the link to see the finished bowl :(

Love the mulberry. Beautiful bowl

What type of tool do you use for checking your angle on your bowl gauge again? Like what brand/ model I need that. I actually let me bowl gauge get “off” my favorite angel, and now can’t figure exactly what it was but want to be able to find it when I get it there lol. A couple degrees makes a lot of difference.

Kent, I tried to purchase your sharpening course on 28 Nov. PayPal took my money, but I can not sign in to your site to access the course. What do I do now?

When you were taking off the tenon, it looked like there was some small wobbling in the bowl, almost like it wasn't 100% centered. How much of an impact does this have on the base of the bowl? I mean, the base will obviously be perfectly flat, but am I correct in thinking that it will not be exactly parallel with the lip of the bowl?

Hi Kent, any news from tried & true about that bowl they were supposed to finish?

An ogee is a two-segment curve that goes first one way and then the other. Like the outside of the bowl is convex near the bottom but concave near the top.

Medullary rays are pretty much not existent in mulberry. It is very subtle and need magnification to appreciate it. Medullary rays are very present in oaks and beech when quarter sawn.

I’m not finding the link the video of the finishing of this bowl.

Hi mate, I honestly love your videos and have learned a lot from them. But every time you say "i have a video all about that" drives me crazy, to the point I'm dreading you saying it as I'm watching.
