Shop Vac Turning

Here is a short video of Glen Rundell roughing out some blanks using my shop vac and a large gouge. I started roughing this way a while back, and besides the noise of the shop vac, I can't find a reason not to do this. Besides the heavy shavings that get sucked away, the fine dust never makes it airborn!

    Hi Peter,

    Just finisched reading about your complete blog. That took some time! But this is a remarkable resource of lots of excellent information, so it was worth it. Until now I knew nothing about green woodworking. Now I'd like to try some for myself. Keep up the good work,

    Greetings from The Netherlands, Kees
