Woodturning: The Design Process

Big thank you to Skillshare for sponsoring this video!! The first 1,000 people to use this link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: skl.sh/ashleyharwood08211
This video is a discussion of my design process in woodturning. For this discussion, I show the process I use to create some bud vase designs. It includes some helpful suggestions for getting started as well as working through design - treating it as an ongoing process rather than a one time shot. I hope y'all enjoy!

    I love your videos. However, I’m always thrown off by how scripted they seem to be.

    You have a natural talent not only for design but for teaching, as well. (I taught for 29 years). You are articulate, clear, and a good planner. Excellent "lesson plan!"

    The combination of Ashley’s accent and her slight awkwardness in front of the camera is so… winsome

    Ashley, you are a piece of work! Lol. Great name for a woodturner. Is it a chosen name? Your bother might be named Harley Ashwood? Seriously if I was your contemporary I’d be a full time fan. You have a wonderful way of teaching encouraging folks to self explore as much as following your teachings. Love your very pleasant looks including hair in a bun, librarian glasses and muscle definition in your arms. Yes I am flirting with you but with utmost respect. You got it going girl in all the right categories. Killer smile as well as deft tool work. Got to admire someone with lathe skills and wood knowledge. I’ve been turning for about 30 years and 20 as a semi professional. My day job was in public health which I didn’t want to leave but my wife and I hosted “open studios “ in San Francisco where I sold an average of 100 pieces per opening. So having some experience on my Oneway, I think I can spot a special talent when I meet one. Keep up the fine work. Gouge on!

    Your videos always have a different perspective. I think most others focus on showing how. Yours focus on why, but that isn't the only part. Whatever it is, keep doing it!

    Thanks for treating the subject of design. Sometimes I think turners focus so much on tools and techniques that design gets shelved. I'm primarily a spindle turner who appreciates good proportions and dimensions. Again, thanks.

    I watch your videos and think, well I'm gonna buy a lathe, I just honestly don't think I have the patience it would take. You have a gift

    I always look forward to your videos for clarity, but the sound on this one is sort of muddy.

    My sketchbooks go back over 40 years. What amazes me is not how much they have changed (and they have) but how consistent my esthetic has been. What was interesting and attractive to me decades ago is still very much something I like.

    I enjoy your lessons, and your showing your skill. I got started with "The Biggest Thing I ever Turned" and was it big! Your skill is scalable. That is amazing.
