    Thanks . Interesting looking site. That should fill in a few moments when I should be otherwise engaged at work!

    Default Thanks,

    I went to your link, then browsed around and came across this.
    Hawaii Bowl Turner Elmer Adams PART #1 Video
    Thanks, ! I watched all four of Elmer Adam's videos, (and I thought my deep hollowing tools were big). I learned a bit, and the music along with the Hawaii Bowl turning Show was top notch!!
    Greenies to you!
    Hey! How do you give the greenies, now?

    Yes and no. As far as I am aware it is lumped in with Wood Machining.

    NSW is the only state that has a dedicated woodturning course I think but that is under review I believe.

    There was also one in QLD but that got duck shoved for the wood machining, no good trying to teach someone to turn when a machine can do the job better and quicker.

    and Co,

    I watched the You Tube piece a couple of times.

    Just a few thoughts (in no particular order):

    - I've seen as good or better here
    - the sinc-speed was up, not realistic
    - I notice he scraped his beads with the skew at one stage, then re-cut with the skew
    - impressive certainly
    - but can he do two near the same?
    - the wood looked soft: what's he like on short-grained redgum?
    - I saw at least one catch (that made me feel good)
    - all old-hands seem to do it the same, with minor variations (changing hands etc)
    - all pretty to watch

    Yes, a long way to go.... But I already knew that.

    And if I am wrong on any of the above, please share your thoughts with me. I've got a lump or 3 of some fiddleack redgum ready to send OS and will eagerly await a replay in real-time. And a close-up of the finish off the tool. (One piece had been out in the sun a while....)

    And maybe Calm has some damned blackwood to send as well..... (And it's not even good for firewood.)
