Walnut Wood Bowl Woodturning
by Alan Stratton on Wednesday, December 28th, 2011 | 7 Comments
Having some creative fun with this piece of salvaged walnut. The wood came from a tree in Texas where I lived some years ago. The tree blew down in a storm. I and others salvaged the walnut wood to do some woodturning and make some nice wooden bowls.
Please comment on the bowl and/or any techniques. Since I’m not a professional, I will appreciate any and all tips and suggestions. Just don’t call me names. 🙂
It’s your turn. Be safe and Have Fun
Sir
Is there any chance of downloading you videos
thank you in advance for your reply.
I realy like your way of explaining what you are doing it makes it very easy for me to understand, I am just getting started in woodturning and need all the help I can get.
The video are quite a bit of work. They’re available for replay as often as you’d like. I’ll put you on the list to be notified of future videos when they’re available.
Thanks for you interest.
great video camera work I cant understand why you dont make the foot while the bowl is on the screw as i do then turn bowl over and hold on foot either expand or contract grip.you have some very good tool control and very sharp tools i cant sharpen really well and ive spent a lot of money on grinding gigs keep them coming tks for posting
Not sure I have a great answer. Probably the best one is that I’m not confident in the shape of the foot at that point. It would save another mount but that’s no good if it needs to change.
Very good question – Makes me wonder.

Alan,
Can you please tell me if you use a camera or video recorder? What brand?
Thanks, love the informational videos

I currently use 2 Canon Vixia video cameras. At times, I’ve used a Kodak ZI-8 video camera for the second camera.
You’re welcome.
