Turning Ebony Lid for Collaborative Hollow Form
Join me in my workshop as I add an ebony lid to a small hollow form.
I received the piece, a hollow form, from a guild member as part of a collaborative turning challenge. When I received it, it was almost completely finished. I wondered, "What can I do to this piece without ruining it?" I decided that adding a small lid would be a great idea.
To add the lid, I would need to cut a small recess at the top of the piece, but I didn't know how to do that as I couldn't see how to hold the piece. The piece's foot was too small to grab with jaws, only a few millimetres and tapered the wrong way. Looking for alternatives, I discovered doughnut chucks, something that I'd never used.
The ebony lid was also tiny, and I had to get creative in holding the wood to get to a finished piece.

    Very nice detail work on getting the lid to fit perfectly, I need to look up information on stronghold chuck and doughnut chuck. Thank you for demonstrating!

    Well that’s going to save a ton of time in the long run! I keep mine on dowels they just slip on and off, takes no time at all. Underneath I have all my jaws in drawers, one drawer for spare screws. On the side I keep the various centers both live and static. Including a forsner bit to fit the 50mm/2” jaws, my pen making jigs are in a separate drawer. I keep the jacobs chucks on the other side, two ready loaded with standard drill bits and one in case I need a different drill bit. But good luck I hope it works for you.

      Maybe some relief cuts would help but can’t agree more 😂

      I often do add 4 relief cuts. That is a good reminder.

      @@the_original_van_d Thanks. Yes, got it. The goal is always to end a project with as many body parts as I started ;-)

    Hello Don, it's nice to see what methods other woodturners use, and you have an impressive stock of pre-turned bowls, I give you props for that. Cheers, Hans Stay safe and keep turning

      Thanks for the comments. I'm hoping to share videos for exactly the reason you stated. Yes, I've got many bowls that need to now be second turned. I try to turn rough bowls each time I get some rounds. In this video I was dealing with the fact that my eyes were bigger then my ability to turn the wood I brought home.
