Getting Great Results the First Time Around

Turn a Bowlby Ernie Conover Getting Great Results the First Time Around Making a bowl may look daunting, but with the expert guidance of veteran teacher Ernie Conover, even someone who's never turned before can create a beautiful bowl. Step-by-step photo essays show every part of the process. Detailed drawings show how to sharpen tools and make the correct cuts. Includes information on how to find wood, prepare bowl blanks, and correctly chuck them. ' Ernie Conover's real gift is that he can express in words what most wood turners cannot. His book will guide you past the pitfalls that can trap a turner. I highly recommend this book for novice and advanced turners alike.' ­Rude Osolnik Getting Great Results the First Time Around Table of Contents Foreword by Rude Osolnik Acknowledgments Introduction Lathes and Chucks The ideal bowl-turning lathe Improving your lathe Holding the work Turning Tools The bowl gouge The combination gouge Scrapers Sharpening Wood for Turning Buying wood Gathering wood Tiling Basic Turning Techniques How to use a bowl gouge The simplest way to turn a bowl: One-time chucking A better way to turn a bowl: Work-and-turn chucking Reverse chucking Re-turning a bowl Advanced Turning Techniques Cone separations Natural-edge bowls Bird's-mouth bowls Hollow forms Tiled bowls Surface treatments Finishing Touches Sanding Buffing Making repairs Finishing Engraving Spinning Pewter Pewter for spinning Tools and equipment The dynamics of spinning Metal finishing Appendices Index Soft cover, 8 X 10, 160 Pages, 200 Color Photos, 30 Drawings,
