This is a YouTube video series provided by Richard Findley that takes the viewer through the process of turning a quality bowl. Richard Findley is an exceptional instructor, in fact one of the best encountered in the YouTube environment. In this 4-episode video series, he not only provides the basic steps followed in turning a bowl but additionally addresses things that can go wrong and how to address them if and when they occur – and more importantly, how to avoid them. He discusses grain direction and tool grain-support and demonstrates the importance of this consideration in your approach to bowl turning, and the benefits derived through following a logical, although not obvious, approach. His video series stresses not only “how” but also “why”. Consequently, the lessons learned translate to other woodturning undertakings as well as the subject bowls. This series is highly recommended for new turners wishing to explore and ultimately define their bowl-turning approach or for the experienced turners wanting to improve on their approach. The provided URL will take you to the first episode of a 4-part series and from there you can find the remaining 3 parts.
