Good Afternoon to all,
I have been somewhat of a lurker on these forums until now! :mrgreen:
a little bit of info on me, I have always been interested in woodwork, and I can turn my hand to most things (pardon the pun )
Wood turning is a new hobby of mine, be gentle with me though! only started 2 days ago..... started off building my work bench last week and now its all complete, I have started off with a rather old/not so good Clarke CWL6B (I can hear the groans from here ) but rahter than spend a big wedge of money to find out I didn't like wood turning this seemed like a good solution
its taken me 2 days to get the whole turning bug though!! I only get a few hours in the evening (I have 2 small children aged 5 & 6)
I have started off practising with various tools on some blanks I bought, I have watched various youtube demonstrations on bowl gouges, my question is simple to you guys
Can you give me some pointers? I keep getting very small catches when using my bowl gouge (bought a new one)
Anyhoo thats enough about me, and I am looking forward to hearing some pointers
