- I make special segments where the glue joint is on an angle.
Very tricky to make and glue together. But the results give a very stunning look.
Made from Walnut, Cherry and Padauk.

I am not into woodworking, but I really enjoy wood turning videos
Thank you very much. Happy you enjoy what I do and thanks for watching.
Gary
Gary, you are the most creative and inventive of people, I do declare. Thank you for showing us your work and ideas.
Thank you Arley for your very kind words and thanks for watching,
Gary
Oh, man, you are something else, Gary! Now I'm dizzy! You just keep topping yourself, week after week. Definitely the best segment turner and videos on CZcams. The way you explain each step is university level instruction. You are the PROFESSOR! Just great work, my friend. I'd say keep'em coming but I think you are due for a vacation after this one! 😊
Phil
Thanks so much Phil! Hmm Professor I like that LOL. Now maybe I can get my own parking spot!
I am a bit dizzy myself, but it might be from other things LOL. While doing this I made some shelves for my larger bowls and stands to put them on. So yes a vacation is in order! So I will just make something easy with less joints at least that is the plan.
Thanks for watching, take care my friend,
Gary
“Wayne the Woodturner” may be the “Wizard” but are definitely the “Professor”.
You are the KING of segmented bowls. This is really nice.
Thank you Michael, that is very kind of you to say and thanks so much for watching.
Gary
Mr. Gary you have out done yourself, it’s absolutely stunning.
Thank you Donald I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
The previous comments are definitely true. You are so creative and have adventure into new endeavors and design. It is not only a pleasure to watch your videos but it is tremendously informative. I learn so much from your presentations. Also, you have helped me via emails to correct and guide my replication of your work. You are an asset to the woodturning community. Thanks so much, John von
Thanks so much John for your very kind words.
Happy you were successful with the project.
Take care,
Gary
You don’t make life easy for yourself, do you. It’s lovely Gary 🌞
Thank you Ray, no never have done that. But today I think I will make something easier out of basic wood with minimal joints.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Wow, Gary. I agree with Phil Anderson. You are the Professor !!!
Thank you Crystal, I appreciate you agreeing with Phil! guess I can go with that.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I’m going to start calling you “Gary the segmented guru”! Is there any type of segmented bowl you can’t do? Simply amazing Gary!
Stuart
Thanks so much! Well they is not any I will not try. Now if I can make it happen!
Thanks for watching,
Gary
The detail with the plexiglass and press is Pure Genius! Thank you for your creativity and vision.
Thank you Jeff, happy you liked the idea. For sure it was very helpful to see the joints.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
WOW Gary yet another Amazing turning 👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much Douglas...happy you liked it.
Gary
Another beautiful bowl, Gary. Thank you!
Thank you Santanu I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
It is always nice to see just what is possible in wood turning...that is if I had even a tenth of your talent and ingenuity. Oh well, at least what I do keeps me of the streets and out of trouble. LOL!
Thank you very much Gil. That is the main reason I do wood turning....keeps me out of trouble. Well most of the time LOL.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary I think you just out did yourself! Amazing work.
Thank you very much Bryon. Happy you enjoyed it and now I will need to get back to the drawing board and see what else we can do. But first I will need to do a few easier ones.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
You sure know more hard ways to make a bowl. Beautiful
Thank you Garth, they are fun but so are easy ones. Which is coming soon.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
The bowl came out very nice. Well done. Good tip to correct the angle of the alternate pieces. The accent ring on the top was a good addition.
Dave.
Thank you Dave, I was happy there was very little waste trimming the ends and it did work out good.
Hard to go wrong with Padauk and for sure it dressed it up nicely.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thanks again Gary. Excellent project and video.
Thank you Dave, happy you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.
Gary
It is absolutely stunningly beautiful and magnificent and spectacular.
Thank you Kobie, happy you like it.
Take care,
Garu
Good evening, Gary. Excellent project and informative video. The glue-up/press segment was well done. Amazing return on your time with this unique bowl.
Thank you Ray, it was sure a lot of fun. Especially when it all worked out.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Smashed it again Gary. You have shown us so many skills. There are not enough hours in the day to try them all. Thanks. 👍👍👍
Thank you Steve, I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching,
Gary
There seems to be no end to the segment configurations you keep coming up with Gary. Your precision is amazing & at time mind blowing. Your description of what you want to achieve & how you go about it is so clear & instructive it would be excellent for anyone aspiring to produce segmented woodturning pieces. They would have NO better role model than yourself. Well done my friend, keep on amazing us. Don from South Aust.
Thank you very much Donald. I appreciate your comments.
Happy you like the video and thanks for watching.
Gary
Wow those angles are crazy. Another beautiful piece of art.
Thank you Stanley and thanks for watching.
Take care,
Gary
Gary i have just watched again half that size and twice as tall a brilliant drinking vessel unbelievable
Yes it would be an interesting thing to drink out of. Would have to do something in it to protect the wood though.
Take care,
Gary
I love these segmented pieces!! You are so talented! It is awesome. I could and have watched many of them over and over and over! Fantastic!! Bravo!
Thank you Mary for your support.
Gary
And I'm sure glad you did !!!!
Very nice piece, amazing combination of grains 👍😉
Thank you very much Dennis. Now I think I better try some of the other things I have been thinking about.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Looks beautiful Gary! Well done. Thanks for making the bowl and sharing the video.
Thank you and thanks for watching and commenting.
Gary
Very nice piece! Thanks Gary for the video! ✌🏼💫🪵 Happy Turning!
Thank you Douglas and thanks for watching.
Gary
Thank You Gary...Another one of your "Confuse-A-Tuffy-In-The-Morning-Before-My-Coffee-Kicks-In" & I LOVE IT!!!...(I am sitting funny cause my back went out...I know, you know, how that feels...BUT...I will be "back" in a week or so)... Sooo R U going to save those 1/4" scrap pieces, glue up & make a tiny little bowl??? ha....Gary YOU are VERY generous showing the (secret?) process that YOU have developed over years. I know everyone appreciates & applauds your honest generosity...VERY NEAT-O turning Gary. I always think "how's he going to top this one" BUT you always seem to pull another rabbit out of your turning techniques.......TM
Thank you Tuffy and I thought you were going to start having 3 cups before you watched LOL.
Sorry about your back and yes I know what that can be like.
I save a lot of scraps but these accidently got tossed haha!
Ideas are sort of worthless if you are not willing to show them. Now when it comes to my favorite snack I might keep them to myself. Well actually my favorites are spicy and my wife does not like that all that much.
Happy you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
Gary, something amazing new every day! Impressive! Thanks, Csaba
Thanks so much Csaba. My next one will probably be simpler but it sort of a request and it it works it may help change the say something is made.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Wow Gary you’ve outdone yourself that is so beautiful take care and God bless
Thanks so much Mike. I appreciate your comments. God Bless my friend,
Gary
Another great working and finishing, 👍👍👍👍
Thank you Gao and thanks for watching,
Gary
Hats off to you; that is a beautiful piece. You have tremendous patience for the details required to pull something like this off.
Thank you very much Mark! Happy you like it.
I enjoy each step of the process to get to the end result.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful piece Gary. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much Mark and thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, I don't actually believe this, but I sometimes think you've stayed awake at night to see how you can play with my brain lol. This is awesome how you can plan something like this and make it happen. I love watching your videos cuz they're great. You teach so well with techniques and also warnings. Thank you for sharing your creativity with me again! Stay safe, Vickie
Thank you Vickie. Come to think of it I woke up the other night and said: AHH this is perfect for Vickie! LOL
Happy you enjoy my videos and I will try to come up with something just as crazy!
Take care,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 hahaha you're funny
I never would have thought of that. You experience does shows in your work. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Tim! Although I never made segments like this at work I did use the complementary angle in a number of things. I think I need to show that at some point in time. I can be very handy to use.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
That is really georgous it's definitely more complicated but the outcome is awesome the bottom and top trim pieces adds to the beauty of the piece the shimmer of the wood blows me away it has a real native appearance as well. Superb job I'm sure many people would love to have a set of different sized bowls looking like that.
Thank you very much Doug! I have used Cherry and Walnut from the same piece that these come from. I cut these different and I am sure that is why the chatoyance is so nice.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Gary
Wow what a fantastic design. Thanks for sharing the process.
Thank you Terrill and thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, you are so amazing...always coming up with a new innovation on how to do something creative! Love the bowl!
Thank you very much Carol! I really enjoyed making this one.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Thank you for another beautiful piece.
Thank you David and thanks for watching,
Gary
Boy Gary that was tricky but really worked out nicely for you. A bit confusing for me in all honestly! Stay well and thanks again for the inspiration.
Thanks so much. Yes it probably was a bit confusing. I pointed that out because if you just cut the segments like most are use to doing they will not fit. It was hard to explain for sure.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Beautiful 👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much and thanks for watching.
Gary
Wow Gary, I really like that one. I plan on trying some segmented turning.......eventually.
Thank you Gary. Segmented turning is a lot of fun and endless what you can do.
Thanks for watching
Gary
Beautiful! Keep sharing your ideas! Thanks!
Thank you Tim and thanks for watching.
Gary
Bonjour Gary ! Encore une très belle réalisation et bien expliquée, un rendu magnifique ! Du grand ART ! Congratulation ! Cordialement, Jean-Luc
Bonjour Jean Luc,
Merci beaucoup pour vos gentils mots et je suis heureux que vous ayez apprécié la vidéo.
Prends soin de toi mon ami,
Gary
Wonderful work you really have a talent. Thanks Tim
Thank you Tim that is very kind of you to say.
Thanks for watching,

You are so creative. Another beautiful bowl. diana
Thank you Diana I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching,
Gary
Great work Gary 👏! I really like the idea. Maybe I'll try it some time. Thanks for sharing! Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!
Thank you very much Stephen and best of luck.
Gary
great bowl Gary you keep me inspired Thanks
Thank you very much Garry and thanks for watching.
Take care,
Gary
This is really very special. It is of course very inspiring, but a bit too ambitious for me. But very nice to watch.
Thanks Gary!
👍Frank.
Thank you Frank. Happy you liked it. Next weeks will be much simpler. I hope!
Thanks for watching,
Gary
I tried your method of water based sanding sealer and Acks products on an ash bowl. What a shine and smooth service. Thanks for the tip.
I am very happy you tried it and had great success. It is always nice when things work out and you can count on them.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
Gary
Just fantastic you just amaze me on how you think these designs up, I cant see me trying this anytime soon, ill need to watch you video a few times more. brilliant
Alan (Scotland)
Thanks so much Alan, happy you enjoyed the video.
Best of luck with anything you do turn.
Take care,
Gary
Pretty bowl! And the explanations are spot on. I really could not understand what you were saying about the mirror image and the rings lining up until you showed me at about the 9:08 spot in the video and then the light came on in my head, so especially thanks for that segment alone. You are an artist and professor in one!
Thank you Glen! I was hoping that extra ring would clear all that up and happy it did. I have had request for making a bowl with the rings going both ways. I may have to do that but I am thinking I will not like it as much as this.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Nice work on the slantgent!! That’s beautiful Gary! Thanks for this video, it’s endless! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Bruce and what a great name you have come up with. I think I will make some Slantments today LOL
Thanks for watching buddy,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 😂😂
Beautiful bowl I love you segment bowls that you do keep up the good work
Thank you Tim! I have a few others in the works.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
You've broken the mould, Gary! Beautiful work. The chatoyance is outstanding.
Thank you very much Jay!
The chatoyance really showed up after sanding to 400. Then I was amazed and how it looked once I got the finish on and started with the abrasive paste. I purposely did not show it till it was actually done.
Very dramatic for sure. Nature has so many wonderful surprises for us.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 You did save it for the end reveal. I wondered if your method would make for more, less, similar amount or simply a different look to the chatoyance. I'm glad it's such a brilliant flash.
@@jayscott306 so think having them the same way will give the best chatoyance because the grain is all doing the same way when you rotate the piece. It is how the light is playing with the grain.
Good question!
Gorgeous! You're a real artist!
Thank you very much Vangie. I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching,
Gary
Love this adventure! Beautiful!
Thank you very much.
I just watched this for the second time. I'm sure I saw it about a year ago. I have a better appreciation for the cutting and layout now I believe. Unless there is a lot of work you didn't show, the glue up and lay up of the rings doesn't appear as difficult as your comments indicate. I understand the potential for slip of the diagonal joints but you appear to have overcome that problem with the plexiglass and the the press. The ring alignment appears dead on accurate. It did take me a bit of time before I understood your comments about the "mirror image" when cutting the segments. But I think I have that concept down pat now. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thank you Glen. I will have to watch the video again myself to remember what I said but the fact that the joints are on an angle they will try to slide on you. The mirror image kind of fools you.
Best of luck when you decide to give it a try.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
VERY NICE BOWL.
Thank you very much Robert!
Take care,
Gary
Wow - Really really nice. Thx for sharing.
Thank you and thanks for watching and commenting.

Just spectacular Gary...every video is better than the last.
Thank you Jeff I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching.

Very beautiful Gary, keep up the great work.
Thank you Mark, I will do my best. I do have 2 more things lined up to try.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Lovely bowl excellent instructio s
Thanks so much Judith and thanks for watching.
Gary
I'm a very symmetrical person. Both sides of that Padauk would have been the same width. LOVE your pun on words....that's pretty smart.
Thank you Morgan. Yes they would have been the same just like a parallelogram is. I use a lot of those pieces in segment work as well.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 You had me thinking there...I thought you were saying to Gary...thanks for watching...however, your name is Gary...lol. Man, I need more coffee 😳.
Beautiful work and design 👍. Cheers mr Gary
Thanks so much Sony!
Cheers,
Gary
Soooo pretty.
Thank you very much Dawn. It was fun to do and I am happy you liked it.
Gary
Look at what ya gone, did, and done!! Another fantastic bowl with a new flare in wood turning segments!! Gary, you never cease to amaze me on what you can do with wood.👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much J! I appreciate your comments and happy you enjoy what I do.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
WOW Gary, that was something else. Brilliant work and great video. Just love the final piece. Take care, John
Thank you very much John. Happy you enjoyed it.
Take care my friend,
Gary
Very cool, Gary. Sometime/often for me, the 'figuring out' is as much fun as the 'doing.'
Thanks so much Louis, for sure this type of turning the fun factor is 80% figuring it out and 20% turning.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
another awesome job thank you as always for the insperation
Thank you Neil and thanks for watching,
Gary
Hi Gary, I was just watching this video of the bowl that you made and I think it looks like a basket, anyway I like all the things that you make, and you make it very informative about how you do things, it is very interesting, take care and stay safe x
Thanks so much Sue and thanks for watching.
Gary
Hi Gary! You really are the wizard of all things segmented 😊👍🏻 This bowl is beautiful beyond words, bravo 👏🏻 I must admit that I had a little trouble following your instructions at the beginning… I was thinking to myself, sounds like perfectly good American English, but I don‘t understand a word of it 😝 But then again, I am thinking it is like the pyramids of Gizeh… Who cares how they were built, they sure look amazing 😉 Great video, thank you for sharing, Gary 🙏🏻
Thank you very much. I found it hard to get the right words to describe it and was hoping showing the pieces would clear it up. It defiantly is a bit confusing.
Happy you enjoyed the video.
Gary
Great Piece, thanks for sharing. Full View and Like 👍
Thanks so much Allen and thanks for watching,
Gary
That was awesome , very beautiful .
Thank you Mike, happy you enjoyed it.
Take care,
Gary
Gary, you may have outdone yourself--again!!! Your skills in teaching far exceed my skills in understanding! I need to watch this a few more times to get the basics of of the technique. Even then, I think I'll take your advice and not try this! LOL
Thank you Tom! I guess I would say do not try this before doing a lot of normal segment bowls.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
WOW again gary beautiful.
Thank you Manjit happy you liked it.
Take care.
Gary
Amazing segmented design & polish is awesome take care.
Thank you very much Sagar.
Thanks for watching my friend,
Gary
Gary,
I learn so much from watching you. You keep us guessing what will you come up with next. I really like your jaw chuck cover. At first I didn’t now what it was but that is a perfect way to protect your chuck form getting over spray on it. I love the finished bowl good job.
Thank you Kevin, I just have to keep myself guessing what I can do next LOL. I do have a few things.
Yes that PVC pipe comes in handy. Left over pieces from my dust collection setup.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Another absolutely gorgeous piece and great video, Gary. Once again you have proven yourself to be not just another pretty face, my friend. Your tool control at 10:45 was just perfect, as usual. Great video, buddy! keep them coming! 👍👍👍
…..Gord
Thank you very much Gord. I was having a good day when I made that cut. But coming from you that is a very wonderful comment. We all know how pretty your cuts are to watch.
Thanks again my friend,
Gary
Looks great Gary. 👍.
Thank you Dave!
That is awesome. Great seeing how you take segment turning to a different level. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much, I think there are a lot more options in segment turning. Which is what really makes it interesting.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
What a beautiful bowl Gary, I what to get into doing segments and been watching videos on how to make a segment sled. Great job once again 👍
Thanks so much Todd. I have cut segments many different ways. The best has been using a wedgie sled.
And it is very important to have prefect wedges.
Have fun,
Gary
Nice work, thanks for sharing.
Thank you Kenneth and thanks for watching.
Gary
Hmm, the Longworth chuck idea might be the basis for an excellent clamp fixture.
Mounting on a solid frame that would be a great idea. It could be vertical or horizontal.
@@ThePapa1947 If it is flat and perpendicular to the lathe's axis, it could be used to sand the rings flat, using a sanding disk in the spindle. It would be necessary to have brake to keep it from spinning.
Think I will hold off on that one for a while, I sometimes have trouble enough with the regular segmented bowls. It is intriguing just another facet to a beautiful bowl.
Thank you Harry and for sure work on regular segments. Nothing wrong with that as they are very fun and pretty as well.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Another great video Gary! It's a very interesting look to say the least!
Thanks so much Terry, yes it is interesting. I was hoping it would look good and was certainly happy with the results.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Gary, another week of inspiration and education ending with a beautiful piece. It’s become a Saturday ritual to turn on the shop heater and then “see what Gary’s been up to this week” while it warms up a bit.
Thank you very much Kyle and a warm wood turner is a happy wood turner. Although sometimes I get so involved I do not realize how cold it really is.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Looks great, Gary. Not made a multi wood segment in several years, but may try one when it warms up some. Have a great day. Bill
Thank you Bill, I figured because of the angled joints it really needed to be multi wood.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Good one, Gary.
Thank you Valerie!
Yes sir that is beautiful thanks for sharing ✌
Thank you very much and thanks for watching.
A very nice affect and thinking outside the box. Neat!
Thank you Randy, thanks for watching.

Nice work!!! Also, you're a very good teacher with you videos.
Thanks so much Arley, I never thought about myself as a teacher but appreciate the comment.
Gary
Beautiful
Thank you very much Barry!
You were right. I did enjoy this. One of these days if I get a table saw I want to try some segmental turning. Great job. You make all the jigs and cutting look so easy. A true craftsman.
Thank you very much Rick. I appreciate your comments. I have been retired for almost 10 years. Prior to that I worked everyday making very geometric patterns out of wood so that helps a lot.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
Very enjoyable and educational
Thank you Dermot I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Gary
Wow Gary that is beautiful! I love working with Paduk it even smells good.
Thank you Jane. Tell me what does Padauk smell like? I ask because in 2006 I lost most of my sense of smell. But here in the last month something is going on and it could be coming back. Very weird for sure.
Thanks for watching,
Gary
@@ThePapa1947 it smells sweet sorta like a chocolate. It has very pleasingly nice smell. It is one of my favorites to turn.
Leave it to you!! ANother very nice piece Gary!! Thank you!!
Thank you Tom I appreciate your comment and thanks for what you do for all us wood turners.
Gary
Thanks for the effort, well done!
Thank you Scott and thanks for watching,
Gary
Another winner ! I’ve wanted to try angled segments and this shows you really need the press to keep the rings flat. I have the parts and now I just need to build it. Thanks for the inspiring video
Thank you Greg! The press sure does come in handy. I have a small hydraulic press I could have converted but I like this much better.
Thanks for watching.
Gary
Just when we thought you were teaching us everything in the book about segments, another chapter! Something new to boggle our minds and amaze us! Thanks!
Thank you Julian, I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching.
Now to see if I can make another chapter in that book.
Take care,
Gary
