Full instructional video on how I turn an off-center bowl from apricot wood. I try to explain all the steps here so anyone could follow it, or modify the method to suit them. This means the video is a little longer than my usual, but I wanted this one to be a full walk-through, not just a demonstration like some others I have done. Comments definitely welcome.

Here is Mike Waldt's video demonstrating another method for turning an off center bowl:    • Wood Turning - Off Center Bowl  

I also include a little discussion on a sheer cut to remove tear-out from the outside of a bowl, possible ways to finish the bottom, and I even experience a slight "design change" when I make a mistake by hitting the rim of the bowl while I pull my bowl gouge away, not to mention the fact that I hollow this one just a tiny bit too deep, so the foot gets a redesign too.
