30:11 Young man I'm 65 and I grew up building cabinets with my Dad. I want you to know your videos are really good! You are an awesome wood worker, keep sharing your God given talent!!
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement czcams.com/users/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
One thing you didn't mention that a router can do that no lathe can, is to make bowls any shape. If you use a template you can create similar bowls any shape you like, not just round!
Great job.. I teach Carpentry at a high school trade school. And I love the way you use the router. I am going to make a set of bowls myself using this method, then I will teach my students. Thanks for the insight...
Thank You for teaching the trade!!!
Don't let it die !
In which school do you teach
A great endorsement. Thank you for passing skills on to others.

thank you I knew it could be done. you have given me some great tips. I'm a 65 yr. old great grandmother and I have been piddling with wood all my life, but I am now I'm learning more about the tools, and you are great with instructions so again thank you
Really great job! Thanks for being so thorough with your instructions.
That's alot of work but they turned out beautiful! Just discovered you.
Well done! I like how detailed your demonstrations are and how you use alternate methods to make the bowls.
Fantastic thanks for posting....You are a very good inovator of wood technique's.
Love the first t-shirt message. This bowl idea is creative to the max and well-presented.
Great info on creating beautiful bowls using a different method.Thank you!
Ótimo trabalho!
Aprendi muito com sua técnica.
Deus te abençoe sempre.
If you cut a U shape in the wood before you glue things up you avoid having to hog out and waste all the wood in the center. As a bonus you could use the waste piece to make another bowl. Depending on how tall you want the sides on the first bowl you could probably get at least three bowls out of the one block of wood.
Hi Nick, Found you from a recommended list on YT and I'm so glad I did.
Brilliant video.
I have a lathe that will allow me to turn 16" bowls over the bed rails and bigger if I turn outboard but this is a brilliant idea which I will copy.
I will be looking at you cutting board videos as it is something I want to get into.
I have subbed and hit the bel
Take care Nick.
Cheers, from the UK, Huw
Great work I love seeing the passion for your work it shows up in your product
Those bowls turned out so beautifully! I appreciate the detail you put into your videos and your ability to communicate these steps so well!
Much appreciated!
Great idea for the extended router plate. Making one today.
Amazing! Loved watching an alternative to the lathe.
I really appreciate the thoroughness of your explanations! Thanks you!
Thank you! I try to include al the steps.
Wow!! Those are beautiful!!
That’s a great idea. Bowls are looking so pretty. Thanks for the content❤️
I think reusing the wood chips in resin would really look cool for a bowl or cup and other things. Especially with all those different colors of wood chips in there.
Thanks for showing these tips. I really appreciate and enjoyed watching the video. 👍
Thanks for adding alternative tools, techniques, & finished with pros/cons.
Absolutely!
It is great to see an alternative to turning bowls on a lathe. I really like the idea of using segments combined with other glue ups.
I have the Arbortech tools as well and have wanted to get into more carving of bowls and such with them. Looking forward to seeing you use the Arbortech tools in upcoming videos.
Awesome! Yeah, segmenting is such a great option. Love the Arbortech attachments and power carving.
Sensacional!
Parabéns pelo vídeo.
Sou grato.
Just found this video browsing. I'm subscribing just because of the shirt. Blessings!
The bowls came out awesome, I am going to try this out. Keep up the great work.
Appreciate it! Have fun making some!
Fantastic work man! Thanks to publishing this video!
Really love vids with natural light coming in like this one. Lit 🔥
Great job. Those bowls turned out so beautifully
Unbowlievable video. Thanks for sharing I know there’s a lot of work that goes into making these videos. Appreciate it!
Thank you so much!
You got me, Nick! You are so awesome and your projects are so amazing! Beautiful😍
It's great job! Thanks! You shows easy way instead of too much heavy equipment dependency.
Great job !!! They look great and you gave the right amount of information without beating it to death. Keep up the great work
Really appreciate it!
Fabulous.
Great video.
Like the gigantic hose clamp idea for gluing your ring together. Gotta try that myself. Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful work!! I always look forward to your videos
I really appreciate that!
Stunning creations. So well explained. Thank you.
Those stripey bowls are _gorgeous_ !
Appreciate it!
Thanks. Nice bowls
I love this video. I learned SO much. After a few tries, I finally got a bowl I am happy with. One shortcut that I found worked for me was to use double stick tape to hold the bowl down, making sure to tape both the bowl area and the outer excess area. Then I routed the inner ring to its final depth, followed by the outer ring all the way through to a piece of scrap wood. That saved the step of cutting off the excess part with a bandsaw (or jigsaw, in my case). It also saved the cleanup with a flush trim bit on the outside of the bowl. The double stick tape held perfectly. .
Wow, they all look amazing. Love your information about different tools and using what you have in the shop instead of paying out big bucks.
Appreciate it!
Just found your site and happily subscribed love what you do with a router the finished product is stunning
Congratulazioni. Sei la mia fonte d'ispirazione.
Excelente trabajo. Felicidades!!!!
A great video. Teaches everything you need to know step by step. Not making a bowl start to finish in 60 seconds. I appreciate the knowledge you have shared. You are really helping a beginner like myself. Subscribed.
Great bowls.
Just found your channel! Awesome man! It’s hard to find woodworkers that are super knowledgeable and not pretentious. Really good vibes and great content!
Thank you so much! That’s really been the goal. Appreciate it!
Absolutely beautiful work. Love the variety and all the options you give. Easy to follow all that you say as well. You are great at explaining everything in simple terms.
Appreciate it!
Love the message on the shirt you ended the video with, and the bowls are gorgeous!
Words I strive to love by. Thanks!
Great video. I've made multiple cutting boards and am ready to move on. Thanks!
Good job. I appreciate your help.
Great products and awesome video, thank you.
Awesome video, I'm never going to make bowls but I learnt a few things which will help me in a few projects and ideas... Thank you.
Router Bowls!! I am following this and am adding the things I need to get this accomplished. Good job and keeping the explanation to the point.
Much appreciated! It’s a fun project.
Excellent video!
Just found your channel and subbed. Working my way back through the catalog, you do a really great job with both production and content. I hope you continue to share future projects!
Really appreciate it!
You are among the very best presenters on the ‘tube.
Much appreciated!
Very thoughtful, thorough and creatively entertaining. Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Great job! Super!
I thought I’d never say this to another man but you got some nice bowls.
Simply Awesome👍🇬🇧🙋🏼♂️
What a wonderful introduction to making bowls with the router.
Some great tips there....
Looks like I may have to discard some templates, and dig out that Jasper circle jig.
Thanks also for showing the source for all the tools/supplies.
I tend to do more bowls than any other woodwork, so will be using your method for sure.....
Thank you so much!
Awesome! And now my question about tools have been answered
Fantastic work!! I'm inspired to try this !
AWESOME! Thank you for posting this video!
Thanks!
Wow!! So beautiful! Awesome video!
this channel kicks ass! im glad i found it. looking forward to your shop tour vid. looks like you have a smaller space like a lot of us. Hopefully thats coming soon!
Love this video, especially the tip about the backwards miter gauge.
As far as sanding the segments, caution should be taken not only to preserve the angle, but the width of the segment as well. Honestly, the angle is easier to protect than the width by sanding on a good flat base. But removing the width will prevent the ring from matching up in a way that can't be recovered. This is especially true if it happens over multiple pieces.
Wow!
Amazing bowls!
Thanks so much!
Want to make life a little easier? Use the dust collection attachment for that plunge base and drill a few holes in the newly fabricated clear base [sled] that is used to "hog" out the center material [around the 20 min mark]. You can use a shop vac or your D.C. system. It'll clean as you go, saving some time and make things just "easier" because you can see what you're doing. Excellent How To video. Thank you!!
Thank you very much for the woodworking class! Excellent video 👍🏻
Hope it helped!
Lindo trabalho meu amigo 👍👍 parabéns 👏👏.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Wow awesome video, very elaborate too! I've really enjoyed it, can't wait to try! Thanks for sharing! Very beautiful bowls you made!
Outstanding work & look.
Wow!! These are beautiful and I love how well you explain step by step the different options and actually show the process as you go through making them. I have a 10 year old son with severe adhd and mild autism and we started going to the kids workshops at home depot awhile back and my cousin and her son went with us one time and her son (he's 3 year older than my son) said to me that he's never seen my son so focused on anything ever. And I noticed the same thing. He was just right into it and I totally subscribed to your channel just show my son the amazing things he could make if he wants to really get into woodworking. We made nightstands at school when I was in junior high and I still have mine. I have no idea if they'll be teaching this stuff when he gets to that level in school but I sure hope so.
Great teacher
Santa kindly brought me my 1st drill press last year & 1st orbital sander this year... so stoked for both! I don't yet have a router but this vid gave me ideas for my 2 tools which I hadn't previously considered... Thank you for the voice-over explanations, these are what I call Useable Art! You are a Master! New Sub. 😃
Nice work and thank you for sharing your amazing work.
I like your style and the way you explain things with options. Thks.
Thanks so much!
Great work dude !
Great Video I learned a lot Thanks for sharing
Nice finish and work👌
I did get excited about your videos. Thanks for being so detailed.
Great to hear! Thanks!
Beautiful bowls.. Thanks for showing us the process.
Thanks!
Great video I learned so much, your a very good teacher. You got a new subscriber out of this video! I look forward to watching more of your videos in the future. Oh yeah those bowls turned out fantastic and I love your shop set up, great selection of tools..I'm super jealous!
I've watched a lot of videos and have been an amature woodworker for 60 years. You have much going for you. Great presentation. Great list of information. and Great product. Hope you are making money at it. So also being an accountant (retired), I would like to see your pricing strategy. and bet others do need the information or strategy for pricing.
Hey! Just watched this video, the first of yours that I've seen. I subscribed right after. I really like the way you present, kind of like we're just a couple a dudes in a garage talking. Great info too. I am inspired to try my hand at making bowls with a router.
Awesome video!
Extremely well done! Boy, I’ve got so much to learn!
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful work!!! Thanks for sharing
Thank you!

Really great video there. Also your enthusiasm for making beautiful bowls is really contagious.
