When the video first started I thought if this guy gets in front of that thing with a gouge or any chisel, he's a moron, but once things started to unfold, it wasn't all that bad....pretty archaic and rough around the edges and obviously a do-it-yourself set up but the concept is interesting.
Why am I hearing a little voice in the back of my head screaming "Don't try it you idiot"?

Getting that to round with a large roughing gouge really isn't that big of a problem. It isn't much different then what we do all the time with pen blanks, it's just larger so you need a bigger roughing gouge. People do the same thing with logs for bowls all the time.
THAT is your Gaurdian Angel whispering in your ear. (Or maybe Derek) :biggrin:
