  • what kind of screw gun is that?

  • do you really need a gun for turning wood? like a child with his toy. bleah!

  • @etevivo Isn't it great that you have the freedom of speech to criticize me exercising my freedom to carry? :D

  • Damn I thought I was the only one who turned wearing a shooting iron, Good for you.

  • what kind of neighborhood do you live in Bill.... is that a pistol yout packing

  • Bill, have your first video and it is GREAT! Thanks Brother! I was wondering, do you do many SEGMENTED bowl turning? That would be a great video as well.

  • Thanks for your kind words, and I am glad to hear you are enjoying the video. We've been trying to get together for a third, focusing on spindle stuff.

    To be completely honest, I don't think I have ever really turned a segmented piece. I have so much solid wood here that I will never get through it all, so it is hard to justify the time to start gluing it up into assemblies.

  • 123HURST, I am glad to hear you enjoyed the videos! The Robust is a great machine. About the only thing I could wish for is just a little more speed at the top end for spindles. But I can live with it the way it is, no problem at all!

  • Hi Bill

    I have both your DVD videos and found them to be excellent. What is your opinion of the big Robust after using it for a while.

  • Bill, Sure sounds like that tool needs resharpening. How long does it retain sharpness?

  • Actually, it was cutting pretty well, as it had been sharpened just before I started. The length of time it stays that way is subjective, depending on the type of wood, moisture content, etc. Mike Hunter has a retrofit for these knives that uses one of his carbide cutters.

  • hahahaha pennsy the woodsman armed and talented.

  • ZOMG that man is wearing a gun :) ftw

  • I like it Bill. I own both of your other videos and look forward to another one. But who knew this was the secret to the coring tool. Wear a gun and you scare the lathe straight. No muss, no fuss just success. I gotta get me a gun....

  • We're working on one, but the problem is scheduling everyone for the same time! Thanks, I am glad you like it.

  • Great video Bill. Is there a new dvd on the horizon?
