Richard Raffan on ½" spindle and bowl gouges and why they catch.

I had a catch this morning after finishing the bottom . Completely hollowing out the bowl and doing a touch up on the rim and boom ten or so pieces .. The worst part it could have been sanded out oh well. Thanks Richard

No need to demonstrate the catch with the "spindle "gouge. I have already done that.

Richard I have a question in relation to the spindle gouge
Sometimes when I go across the wood grain I start ok then it's like the gouge skips and jumps across the wood. Please, what am I doing wrong

Nice clear explanation, thank you

Ignore this man at your peril, or, as they say where I come from "in goes yer' eye out!".

On topic, Richard! Will you also review using the gouge wings? I use my deep-fluted gouge with a fingernail grind almost as much as I do the skew on spindles. Of course, whatever works for each of us is the practice we should follow. -- Russell.

Another great presentation, every day’s a school day . Thanks Richard

Výtečná detailní ukázka nejen pro začátečníky, pokročilý má možnost konfrontace s vlastním držením nástroje. Je dobré se neustále znovu a znovu učit. 👌

The best view showing the difference between bowl gouge and spindle gouge I have ever seen. Best explanation of how a catch happens. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂 PS: How about this, a video title that tells it like it is. 👍👍

Excellent demonstration and explanation!

Thank you Richard. Great videography, and great Tutorial

Since December 2021, I've always learned something from your videos.
I can't stop admiring your practicality.
You always show us that practical way to achieve our goals.

Interesting.

Thanks for this vidio realy like the close ups great explanation

You are the best teacher i have learned so much from you. Thank you

Thank you!

I could watch you teach all day, every day Richard.

Richard, that was super helpful. I really appreciate you putting out this kind of content. Cheers!!

And I just keep on learning as a beginner... The little things that seem unimportant at the time.. I really have to thank you and Tomislav for the close up views , also using e pencil as a pointer 👍. LOL To bad neither of you two are not true wood turner LOL ... Please take that as a joke.,. Thank you again !!!

Merci beaucoup Monsieur Raffan de ces éléments déterminants. Vous éclairez ma progression. Bien à vous,

Beautifully clearly explained and shown. That's a pretty hefty bit of mango, too. Many thanks, Richard.

Very useful! Thanks!

Thanks Richard, I knew this but your reinforcement with backup video was tremendous, Thankyou. I’m at western Sydney turners and do some of the training there. Your instructional videos are a great source for my training Thankyou. I e
Was talking to an older turner the other day and he told me that he met you a long time ago at a teacher in service and you were fantastic and had time for everyone there. I do appreciate your time in taking editing and uploading these videos for everyone to enjoy.these

Excellent. I've watched this video 3 times and I think I get it. The spindle gouge can be used on a bowl for a push cut but only on the left wing tip. The bowl gouge allows one to use the right wing because it is a supported cut.

Thankyou Richard for a clear description of catching!❤️

Very helpful - a question - why would you then choose to use a spindle gouge rather than a bowl gouge on bowl?

Great description as to how to use them safely thanks

It’s so clear when you are explaining, but I wasn’t aware of the concept that the edge always needs support from the bevel. That’s basically how woodturning works, isn’t it? Big lesson🤦🏻‍♂️

This video came one day too late for my poor 1/2 spindle gouge! At least I fully understand my mistake now, thank you!

I’m scared just watching 😂
