 oh god I had a watch of some beginners wood turning vids on you tube it was like watching paint dry 

Strange. I find youtube woodturning vids particularly enjoyable bath-time viewing.

I like the worththeeffort ones best - they're well edited, the guy is personable and his accent tolerable, and he gets straight into the meat of the topic without all the "please subscribe" and unscripted waffle you usually get for the first 5 minutes of most others'.  I usually get out of the bathroom somewhat wrinkly but feeling like an expert.

Thanks. Mark

Thanks for letting me know, the post is taking a bit longer due to last weeks weather.
Happy turning.[emoji106]

Mark,

 

have a peruse of Lyle Jamiesons youtube channel he is pretty good on bowls and gives good straightforward advise I use his techniques a lot, simple and repeatable results.

Cool I will have a look I had a look at   Worththeefort  and god his voice went right through me so many of those YouTube woodworkers  just waffle on instead of showing you how it’s done I had to watch this one bloke cutting squares on a bandsaw lots of them .

Cheers Mark
