I might have missed it but did you say the brand of that lathe?
Great video, I have just purchased my first wood lathe, much info here. thank you
Thank you so much for a really good video . Have subscribed and looking forward to learn so much from you I am a total novice .
How do you get the spur drive out??
Excellent video with a wealth of information, I am looking forward to watching the rest of your video’s and I hope to learn a lot. Watching you I could tell that safety is very important a long with proper use of your lathe and tools. One thing that I would like to add for the beginner working with power tools and moving objects, is get into the habit of removing all your Jewelry prior to turning on any equipment.
I enjoyed this and found it very helpful! Thanks
Music is a nuisance, makes it hard to concentrate on what your saying.
you have over rated yourself1
I was just given a lathe by a buddy who knows I like doing wood work. I’ve always wanted one, but obviously they’re expensive tools to purchase. I just wanted to say thank you, for giving information on tools, machines ect. But you do in a manner that is not "Buy this brand only" like I see some do. "Do your own research" I think were your words. I appreciate the openness to it. I’m writing like like 1/2 through the video, but I already definitely feel like I am stickin around on this channel for a while. Thank you again for your instructional videos and sharing your knowledge, much appreciated!!
Hi, What make of lathe is that?
When i was taught how to use a lathe at school in the uk in 1989 we were taught that the edges should be planed into a rounder edge.
Is there a reason for not doing it that way today. Thanks
Was that pine that you were turning?
Thank you for this much needed video. It’s wonderful.
this is so helpful for me! im a teenager and trying to get into woodturning and this helped me learn things i never knew before. Thanks Roger!
Great video Roger, very informative. Only one small negative comment, please don’t bother with the background music. It’s really not needed, I find it distracting.
Hi Roger, great video for beginners and people like myself wanting to get back into woodturning after many years of absents. I’m debating on whether to purchase a small lathe or a longer bed as i used with my father when i was a teenager. We didn’t really use it to it’s full potential but was handy for turning larger bowls ect if required. My other issue is power usage as my property is stand alone power and I need to run a generator if i want to run larger electrical equipment. What is your advise on either size of lathe?.
Excellent thank you
Hi Roger, Thank you for taking the time to make this video, it has been very useful for me turning wood for the first time. My chisels are going blunt very very quickly, I have started with basic low-cost chisels and i have started with 4-inch fence post so I already know im on the back foot here but what is the reason my chisels are going blunt within minutes. Is it the low cost chisels, the timber or technique or all of these factors?
Can i buy a cnc metal lathe instead of woodturing lathe? For making pool cues
I just bought myself a lathe and I can’t wait for it to get here.
I feel more informed about what to expect when I start using it.
Thank you 🙂
Super excited.
Been watching people make cool stuff for a while.
Not sure what you actually mean by saying "be very careful" does that mean hold it lightly, dont push it in,, is it more dangerous , or does it take too much off??
I’m 70 and have just begun turning and I need all the help I can get. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 👍
Thank you for sharing and giving this learning experience to me.
Very well done!!
Very well done video of the basics. Subscribed and look forward to more, thank you for sharing.
why the irritating background music?
The video seems informative but the back-ground music is too distracting. Hard to listen to the gentleman explain the intricacies of turning wood with another gentleman singing. I will give it another minute or so but I am not hopeful that IO can stick with it.
Ref the flat gouge that looks like a chisel: you warn that you can “get into trouble” quickly, and say several times to “be careful” — but you don’t explain what the ‘trouble’ is, and you don’t describe what you have to do to ‘be careful’. IOW, tell us what the trouble is that we can get into, and tell us exactly what we have to do to avoid it. ‘Be careful’ is meaningless. And we don’t know the problem we’re trying to avoid.
I learned recently from some old fellas at a local garage how to do this. I’m going to follow a lot of yoru teachings over theirs. They are "Good Old Boys" who have done it the same way forever, and aren’t keen on learning new techniques. Also, they correct me every time I call it a "chisel" and say "It’s called a gouge. A chisel is something you hit with a hammer".
I was delighted to find your video , however I agree with a previous comment, the singing makes it very difficult to concentrate on what you are saying. You and your knowledge are enough 😊. Thank you for sharing your knowledge .
Bit confused with skew and gouge but eventually worked out the reference
So are the gouges shaped that way in order to add stregth to the tool since the rough process involves so much violent force until a more smooth surface is gotten to?
Fun to watch! Interested in learning how one makes four similar legs. I learned to make a bowl in wood shop class in 8th grade!
Thank you, great help.♥️♥️♥️
What would be the youngest a person could be to use a lathe, in your opinion.
fair play fella
Very nice video thank you
I just bought my first lathe yesterday. Great video and very well explained. It was one of the best videos I came across yet. Thanks for sharing.
30 minutes into an hour long video
Appreciate the great video, I have been looking into a mini lathe to make pipe tampers.
Btw my last name is Webb aswell
Great watching and learning. Thankyou
Thanks for the video Roger, I found it very helpful as a beginning turner. Jut picked up a MIDI sized lathe for a project I’m working on, you videos are just what I was looking for.
Thanks for the video Roger. I ordered a lathe and toolset yesterday, arriving in a few days, so Im browsing for beginners guides and found you. I dont yet understand all the holding methods for workpieces and was curious as to what limits there were to the standard eqipment with the lathe. You have resolved that for me. I will be coming back to this when I work on my first piece to test out the various chisels etc, doing something much like your example. Yes Im a complete beginner, never used a lathe in my 64 years, but dont worry, I like to be careful and have the PPE already.
Best wishes from England.
Can you get bigger tool rests..?
Fabulous, just found your channel. I’m thinking of buying my first lathe and starting wood turning as I enjoyed it so much at school……a few years ago 😊 Subscribed and will be following closely, thanks again 👍
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I’m looking to start turning, and this is very useful!
আমি এই মেশিনটি ক্রয় করতে ইচ্ছুক, কি ভাবে নিতে পারবো জানাবেন। Please.
Great video, can you tell the spindle RPM?
Very helpful thank you! I inherited a lathe from my dad; I am hoping to continue his goblet making 🙂
Hey roger I’ve watched you before I’m a woodworker but I’m wanting to get into turning wood what size lathe do you suggest starting with
Thank you for the basics
