Is there a reason you put the tenon on the drive center end?
Good question, Eric. I had to stop and think about that. That is the way the demonstrator I watched do it. But I think cutting the tenon on either side would woruld work just fine. on this kind of bowl.
Mike Peace Woodturning thank you. I have tried a couple of this style bowl. One of the most critical elements I have experienced is the starting cube must be as close to a perfect cube as possible. If not the wall thickness of the bowl is not even. I find turning the tenon on the live center easier and safer. I really do value your videos. Really excellent.
Great idea! I'll try it soon. Thanks!
one of the turners in the group I go to did this on our demonstration day. Turned out great. Thanks for your advice and tips.
Your welcome, Lisa. Safe turning.
Three corners are always a good challenge to test one’s skills set. Nice job Mike!
I totally agree!
Great demo Mike. Always good stuff coming out of the Mike Peace shop. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay healthy.
Thanks again,. Glen.
Thanks for the video Mike. This is another of your projects that I will try.
Go for it!
That's a lovely bowl, Mike, well done and thank you for sharing with us. Cheers, mate.
Glad you enjoyed it
Mike, great fix on the crack with the thin CA, and particularly the shellac/friction polish trick to prevent staining! Thanks.
Thanks for the specific feedback. It helps me better understand what the viewer needs.
Gorgeous bowl Mr. Mike
Thanks Donald for your continued support.
Just turned my first 3sided bowl over the last 2 days. It sure gave me some fits. But then again I did it out of poplar.
Excellent!
I’m going to make one of these soon. Your video will help me a lot.
Glad I could help
That turned out perfectly Mike. Good job! I've seen others where they go to extreme efforts to line up edges and such - your way of mounting seemed straightforward and easy. Cutting not so easy😁 Stay safe. -Mike😷
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi Mike,
I enjoyed your video very very much. The video shots from over the lathe showed clearly how you're using your tools, your chisels, and the form that you were working for the bowl. Your video was very clear and I appreciate that very much.
You're sanding trick to take out the chipout on the edge was very good also.

Thank you very much for letting me know I am helping!
Much more interesting treatment of a 6" cube
Been there done that.
Great job Mike, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Really beautiful work, Mike! 😃
Thanks a lot for all the tips!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you! Will do!
Excellent video. I learned a lot!👍❤️
Glad it was helpful!
Nice turn! Mike, I would like to see you turn a one piece walking cane! It would be interesting!
Noted!
Hi Mike, Great video, simply explained, I'm inspired to try. Also enjoyed hanging out with you after your demo with NJ Woodturners back in May.
Glad you enjoyed it, Joe. Always fun hanging out with fellow woodturners. Started a chess set yet?
You have inspired me to try one of these! You are making my to do list longer!🤔🎉🕯️😂
You should!
Very nice bowl brother!!
Thanks 👍,Eric.
Great video Mike. I am a new turner and have learned so much from your GREAT videos, Thanks. I have made a few coffee scoops in different sizes they turned out great, but everyone thinks they are pipes at first glance LOL.
I hear that a lot also. Glad you find my videos helpful.
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
You can turn three wing bowls out of a rectangular piece of wood to get an interesting outcome. Or, you can turn with a piece of wood that is not a perfect cube. They all provide interesting outcomes and not one of them is the same.
Yes, something to try.
I would of never thought to use the board, with sandpaper on it, to sand those wings. I'm going to have to try this on a smaller scale lol. I have a long history of losing knuckle skin to projects like this 😁
Glad to help. Starting small for practice is often a good idea.
Interesting, Mike. I usually turn the tenon on the tailstock end but I think I like it the way you did it. It gets you a better grip, sooner. The piece turned out great! In the picture at the end of the video I guess you have it setting on a small base. That looks great, too. Now I'm wondering if there is some way to turn it WITH that base as all one piece. Not sure my brain can process all that info. LOL! Nice job, fun video, Mike!

That picture was a second and larger one I did. Turned as you surmised all one piece. A little extra work with reverse chucking but not too different from turning a bowl with a foot without the extra carving.
Like to have seen the scraping at a lower angle,, thanks for sharing,,🐝safe
Next time
I first saw Jimmy Clewes turn one of these a few years ago in Kansas City at the AAW Symposium. He turned at really high speed. I’ve only made one and it turned out pretty nice. Does it matter what you set on the grain direction? You have 3 sets of points to pick from. Thanks for the video👍
I move the block around and it looks like you are going to wind up with the same grain issues no matter.
Do you normally finish the inside of the bowl before or after removing the tenon and turning the foot when using a vacuum chuck?
I always add my finish off the lathe. generally 3-5 coats of Minwax AO.
Hey Mike I'm new to wood turning just over a month. I've made a mushroom a goblet with a captured ring some solid vases due to lack of a bowl gouge which I recently acquired. My problem is I'm not sure where to set the tool rest center ,above or below center. I'm reaching myself and trying to be as safe as possible thank you for the videos they are very helpful to me
Maybe this video will help. czcams.com/video/easecB1--xE/video.html
Thank you sir you are very informative and helpful
Sorry, this was the video I meant specifically on tool rest height. czcams.com/video/vS9_Z6wAU4M/video.html
Oh that explains why I still didn't get it lol. I've only been doing this a month and I use your videos for guides very helpful especially trying to be self taught
Wow ok have you ever had one of those oh the light just came on moments. That's what I just had watching that video thank you for the help
Are you using both Powermatic and Lagune lathes??
Yes.
what speed?
Diameter X RPM = 6000 to 9000. Less when roughing an unbalanced blank.
