Friends: 

This week, I'm bringing out the next installment in my series on basic woodturning tools. A lot of turners struggle with understanding gouges. What is a gouge? What kind do I need? There's the spindle gouge, the bowl gouge, and the roughing gouge? Do I need all three? Can I use a roughing gouge on a bowl? 

These are good questions and knowing the answers won't just make you a better turner, it will also keep you safe. Using the wrong gouge can cause a hazard in the shop. 

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Hey Rex. Great video. I want to remind you before the video is published you say links to "a couple of better videos in the description... [to] show you all the nuances of coves and beads" but the links are currently missing.

James: You are entirely right! I just wanted to get this video up for Patrons, but I do need to get those link in there. Thanks!

Another proofreading thing (sorry this is after you published)... it looks like rexkrueger.com/articles which you mention in the video doesn't work anymore (the Articles link in your header now goes to /new-blog). Did you mean to plug the tip sheet for the parting tool or spindle gouge?

I meant to plug the spindle gouge sheet, but realized too late that the image I stuck in the video is the parting tool sheet. These details get out of hand really fast. I need an assistant. As to the articles link, I have NO idea what happened there. It's fixed, but now I probably have about a million broken links to go fix. Thanks SO MUCH for catching this. I don't know what I'd do without my Patrons.

It looks like you are copying the create address to the tool sheet (while you are still creating the page - hence the \new-blog path in the URI) instead of the address to view the article (containing \articles in the URI). This also happened with the 3 tool mallet video just posted, where the link is <a href="https://www.rexkrueger.com/articles/2019/2/24/tip-sheet-make-a-mallet-with-3-tools," rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.rexkrueger.com/articles/2019/2/24/tip-sheet-make-a-mallet-with-3-tools,</a> but the actual page appears to be <a href="https://www.rexkrueger.com/new-blog/2019/2/24/tip-sheet-make-a-mallet-with-3-tools." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.rexkrueger.com/new-blog/2019/2/24/tip-sheet-make-a-mallet-with-3-tools.</a> I do this more than I would like to admit when authoring/editing multiple wiki pages at work. :D

I just did it too - I swapped the links! New-blog is for the, well, new-blog creation page, vs. articles is for the view blog page.

Also, for whatever reason, the URL slug for that whole page was set to "new-blog" instead of articles. It's fixed, but it was a pain.
