wow these bows are beautiful but that's labor intense. Thx for showing, it's not my cup of tea.
Beautiful job on those bowls. Where do you sell them?
Those wood very pretty… wish I owned a forest full of those beautiful trees
Can I send my son to learn with you? I'll pay you to teach him… just need him off the street and find something constructive to do
Shhampher, like champagne
using wooden plate for food sounds annoying. gotta wash and dry right after then wax. also cant put it in the microwave. ceramic it is
I am a beginner woodworker and loved to learn from you. Great video and amazing bowls! Thank you for sharing. I am looking forward to creating some bowls like yours!
Wow! I was just trying to find a video on how to must a groove in a bath tray for a wine tumbler. Now I'm inspired to learn more. Also, I see why these bowls are so expensive. That's a lot of work!
Would coconut oil be used as a good finish?
Nick, I'm so glad I found your videos. You're so helpful. Do you have any social media on fb or Instagram?
Great explication of every step. I gotta get better at that! Making a bowl for a school fundraiser. Thanks!
great job bro ?
Great Video I learned a lot Thanks for sharing
Awesome!
to much glue. its not safe for food.
Sensacional!
Parabéns pelo vídeo.
Sou grato.
What are some things these bowls are used for? Can I eat my cereal out of them?
that's a lot of wasted material there gotta be a better way to take out the middle of your work piece or even design it from beginning in a less wasteful way?
