Lesson 3 continues our series for new woodturners, potential woodturners as well as experienced woodturners looking to brush up on their fundamentals. Today we are going to focus on turning with the detail spindle gouge https://amzn.to/3zPSIJO learning to turn coves and beads. These are the foundational shapes that almost everything else we do in woodturning is based on. We will also introduce some simple cuts with a skew chisel https://amzn.to/4d5nOve along with cuts with our parting tool https://amzn.to/3xAqJwT.

This is a 10-part series to help beginning wood turners build a solid foundation of woodturning skills to be able to create all the projects you are dreaming of. We will be adding the lessons to a Playlist on the channel to make it easy to find the entire series.
