- The illusion is that the edges are curved although they are actually flat. This is one of several blanks you see cut from a larger bowl blank full of holes • Richard Raffan resaws ...
Thank you for yet another wonderful demonstration with a lovely end product. My grandchildren and I watch your videos in lieu of bedtime stories. Their father is a turner as well and we all often discuss types of wood and your techniques. You are influencing three generations!
Lovely little piece, Richard. I've shied away from square stuff because i found it so hard to keep them absolutely square. Lesson learned!
If you can manage to cut the blank square, and get the centre point absolutely centre, well, I've found it helps a lot. I like Richards technique as well though.
Gorgeous little bowl, slight asymmetry is always more pleasing in hand crafted items
Great use of a small piece of nice timber. You continue to set such a good example, thanks very much.
Amazing little bowl. I love your videos, thank you for making them.
Now I know why my square bowl was somehow looking "weird". And I never felt like using such a small piece of wood rather than putting it into the burn pile. The result is such a cute little piece! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Excellent use of a small scrap and such a beautiful finished project, thanks for sharing this Richard 😉
What a delightful little bowl this is! Thank you for showing us how.
You are such an accomplished turner … I have two of your videos and watching you turn these little pieces is so fascinating and you do it with such ease … thanks for sharing your skills with all of us …😎
What the lathe has brought to my life is hanging out in a little shop making quality crafts, I’m turning into a Luddite!!😂
Nothing wrong with that!
Thank you for all the tips and tricks on turning a square piece. I really appreciate it.
I appreciate your gracious continued willingness to share your skill with us. I am grieving for your eyesight challenges and am hopeful they are able to be improved!!!
Cataracts done and I now have 20/20 vision. It's a much brighter world.
Perfect timing! I'm getting ready to make some small ring bowls out of cherry for our church Mother's Day presents. I think this will hit the spot!
Beautiful little bowl Richard.
I like. Great use of pretty scraps, and quick too!
Beautiful, thanks Richard for sharing
Nice piece of work Richard. Asymmetry can be OK at times. This is one of the times. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
What an interesting video, especially as it is the first time I’ve seen someone else use lathe mounted sanding pads. Thank you for inviting me round 🌞
Richard,
Very new concepts for me. I too love to do small, unique projects. Please keep sharing the the lesser known corners or your broad base of knowledge.
Thank you, I’m going to make one of those. Also Richard I’d like to wish you well with getting your eyesight fixed. Hope it works well.
I usually try for perfection but I agree with your view on this project...very nice.
Nicely done Richard 👍 😊
Fantastic RR!
What a nice shape to show off a beautiful little piece of wood. Very nice.
Beautiful bowl 👏👏
Thanks yet again Richard for a nicely presented piece. I know that in many of your videos you make continuous small adjustments to the tool rest height. I haven't quite figured out exactly why each change happens. Some seem pretty obvious but others not so much. At least to me. Can you elaborate on that a bit in some future video?
Amazing what you manage to get out off wood I would despair at. Many thanks for another entertaining and educational video
Bonjour Richard .De la précision et un ajustage aux petits oignons...avec vos explications me vais tenter ma chance pour reproduire ce tournage .Merci Richard et bonne continuation.👍
Bon chance.
Very nice the grain is great.
Having watched dozens of your videos I did have a random thought that your could sell mismatched socks as merchandise… lol.. thanks for a new idea to try
I appreciate the instructional content.
Very cool, thanks.
Very good, and lovely piece of wood. I see you have a nice new big block of wax, lol. I'm hoping our Apiarist brings honey and wax soon, this year the Bee's produced just over 50 kgs of honey, and last time he also gave me a big chunk of Leatherwood Wax, which smells wonderful, and is very pale so doesn't discolour the wood very much.
Nice job and idea for small timber was wonder what Chuck and jaws you use
Vicmarc VL100 chuck with 55mm Shark Jaws. These are the chucks I use: czcams.com/video/qKLjtu6n2o8/video.html
Lovely job Richard ! if you start off not knowing were you going you might end up somewhere else 😊
I love this
Thanks again for the excellent video, my use of scrapers is increasing following your and Tomislavs examples. Having never used straight beeswax, I tend to exclusively use Ubeaut products, what would you recommend as a "maintenance" polish for the new owner?
Thanks!
I inherited a round wooden bowl with lid. Inside there was a note that stated it was a sugar bowl, 250 years old. The note was dated 1939. It was my grandmothers handwriting. Any thoughts?
Value?
could have seen that little bowl with an egg cup recess in the centre reminded me of a 60s tupperware design
Like my Baronial Eggcup perhaps..... czcams.com/video/kJW3wv8mwsE/video.html
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning will check that one out, do you have a video that goes into detail of your wonderful bowl callipers they look far superior to the double ended style, i have 6 weeks to watch all your vids while recovering from a shoulder recon
@@user-bb2bh4ye7q The calipers are made for Lee Valley in Canada and they are way way better than double enders. Enjoy the videos, but on't forget the physio......
@@RichardRaffanwoodturning physio a couple of weeks away only chopped and pinned back together yesterday cheers
Thanks
Many thanks. Much appreciated.
May I ask what type of pad that was you used for the sanding? Also, hoping your procedure goes well!
It's 25mm thick neoprene but any not-too-soft foam, rubber, or bundle of cloth, would be as effective.
I appreciate the sock.
