The draw-by-number, point-to-point approach to shaping the vase is so easy to understand. I am a total novice (as in I just unboxed my lathe). I have a distance to travel before my first hollow form project. I'd love to order a set of plans for your flattening jig if one is available.
Yes it's too high for regular cutting. But when the blade is high the cutting force is more vertical (downwards) so the segments are more stable during the cut, and it also reduces the length of the kerf in the aluminum base. With my cutting jig, the total travel distance is limited by the stops in the slots. And in addition to that, there are clamps on each side of the blade to hold the segment and the strip. So the danger is greatly reduced. We all know the danger that is present when we use power tools. We must be vigilant when we use them. But thank you. I appreciate your observation and comment.
Damiano, thank you for sharing your squaring tool. I spoke with my friend today, asking him if we could make this tool. He said yes and is excited about it, (he has all the big metel working tools and lathe). I sent him the link to the video for his examination. Your explanation of the tool and your process was/is very well done. Your vase is very beautiful. I am just a few weeks away from completing my new woodworking shop, and my new lathe is waiting for me there. It's been a while since I stood at a lathe, but as my late dad explained it to me, It's like riding a bike, it all comes back quickly. Do you have a set of plans for this tool? Thanks - Lowell
Do I understand you make for sale the Jig you created for flattening segmented rings on the lathe? If so I am interested in purchasing one. If not the actual jig then at least the plans. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂May I have your email address?
Mr. Ferraro, what is the tailstock accessory you installed just prior to turning the outside of the vase? it looked like a plate with an adapter. I enjoyed watching your presentation very much.
The tailstock is fitted with a OneWay live center that has a 3/4" x 10 threads per inch. To this I added an adaptor to allow me to install a faceplate, chuck etc. The adaptor has the same thread size as the headstock.
27:30 @damianoferraro1802 I just watched your video with the ring squaring jig invented. Genius!! I have thinking for years,I wish there was a tool that would do that. Do you sell them?

Cutting a segment IS a stave. But it is very short. The maximum stave that you can get is limited to the saw blade height. And then it would not be safe. Not recommend it. And you're also limited to 16 segments.
Many thanks for your kind compliment. Because of numerous requests I decided to make them. So, yes I do make them for those wishing to purchase one. For more details, email me at damianoseg@gmail.com.
I used an old version of AutoCAD and my old fashion drawing skills to design a shape and then using projection, I get the different rings that make up the shape(in this case a vase)
Hi Damiano, I have enjoyed your video, first time I come across your videos.and have joined your subscription, you have designed a better jig then the one I made and use for 90 degree straightening , I was wondering if you do have the sketch or drawing for it I can have to improve my jig it will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance Kind regards from OZ Jack Marashlian
Hi Damiano, this video popped up again so I just watched it...again. I really should make one of your facing setups. But I can transfer my chuck onto my metal lathe and do the same thing. I hope people listen to your turn by the numbers so to speak method. This is how we built patterns at work. Having cross sections of a shape we would build to that then carve away the material between the 2 surfaces. Did it a lot with staves and sometimes segmented turnings as well. But especially on staves that were not turnings. Your video never gets old. Hope you are doing well my friend, Gary
Hello Gary, hope you're doing well through this virus crisis. Using your metal lathe is a great idea. I have one myself but its capacity is only 12" and most of my work is bigger. so the flattening jig comes in handy. Since that video I've added an extension on the left to my lathe. So I don't have to remove my work. I now flatten my rings on the outboard side. Believe it or not, I've sold quite a number of jigs due to the video. Thanks for your added compliment. I just saw again your video on dizzy bowls. I'm working on a Japanese style vase about 36" tall and want to incorporate your dizzy bowl concept. Are you still putting out videos? I'm not being notified if you do.
Wow, what precision, I have to say although this is 2 years old and being my first opportunity to see it I was impressed. Seems the extra time in precise cuts saves time in sanding. You have a new subscriber.
Very well explaine you are a great teacher very nice bowl thanks want to see more do you have some kind of templet to calculate the lenth of eaches segment for the ring 5 6 8 10 inches ect Thanks again (excuse my frenh) Michel
Merci pour les compliments. Quand je commence un projet, je le dessine avec un logiciel à dessin comme Autocad ou d''autre. Donc je me casse pas la tête a faire des calculs. C'est le programme qui fait tout cela. Si tu m'envoi un courriel je t'enverrais les dessins du projet que tu vien de voir.

Hi Damiano, Great video. Great Ideas. Great execution. But what's next? We are all (I checked feedback) thirsty for new creations of yours. Hopefully Covid never knocked your door...?
Thank you for your kind remarks. My videos are slow in coming because I'm not properly equipped to make videos. The first and only video so far was made by a good friend and hopefully will come around to setting myself out for more. Thank you for watching this one. Check under " west island woodturners". The club I belong has couple of my demos.
That problem is due to two possible scenarios. One is that the wood used to make the segments is not dry and the other is that if two distinctly different wood types are glued together, and the expansion rate for each is different there will be a shift when the work is exposed to a change in temperature. This will cause what used to be a clean smooth joint to one that can be felt when you pass your hand over it. it's not major but it's there.
great video. I have often said that segmented turning turns the light on the idea that "close enough is good enough for woodworkers". Contractor grade table saws and chop saws are not accurate enough for segemnted turning. I applaud that you have introduced precision adjustments in your jigs. Great work!
Thank you for your gracious comment. The inside is finished just like the outside. The inside was turned sealed and polished as the vase was being glued up. I did not show it because I made this video to show the process I use to assemble my segmented work. In future videos I may want to include that to avoid this issue.

Your saw blade is set dangerously high. Lower it down!!
Yes it's too high for regular cutting.

Segmented was how I learned to do it when I was in shop class 46 years ago, picked up woodturning 6 years ago after 40 yrs off!
great hobby!
I read below that you make the facing jig for folks that want one. How do I get one?.
contact me via email.
Well done Damiano, precision is your middle name, very interesting indeed, thank you for the presentation.
Thank you Ed. As you know exotic woods are very expensive so accuracy will reduce the loss dramatically.
Incredible work, I loved the tutorial. Do you sell the jigs? especially the flating jig?
yes, the flattening jig. You can contact me via email.
I love your facing tool! Did you ever make a sketch or plan?
yes I have made the drawings, I also make them for those who wish to obtain one.

you have combined wood working with metal working which 99% of wood workers do not do-- bad video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too bad you have not learned anything from the video. It's not for everyone and definitely not for you.
Good video, thanks
I use a large flat chuck to center up my segment to ensure gluing as well as turning the surface of the segmented rings.
That's fine. It depends on how big your rings are.
With your sled. How long would it take to cut 7 rings?
If your strips are cut to size, about 30 minutes should do at 16 segments per ring.

I use an old version of AutoCAD. There is software available for segmented work that you can get on line. one of them is segment pro.
Just plain perfection. Beautiful work!
Thank you.
Excellent video!!! Thank you for this idea
You're very welcome. Glad you liked it.
Verry nice technique sir!
thank you.
I like your cutting jig. Will it work fir cutting staves?
Cutting a segment IS a stave. But it is very short. The maximum stave that you can get is limited to the saw blade height. And then it would not be safe. Not recommend it. And you're also limited to 16 segments.

How do you stop the wood from shrinking and the glue joint sticking out after you finished it
That problem is due to two possible scenarios. One is that the wood used to make the segments is not dry and the other is that if two distinctly different wood types are glued together, and the expansion rate for each is different there will be a shift when the work is exposed to a change in temperature. This will cause what used to be a clean smooth joint to one that can be felt when you pass your hand over it. it's not major but it's there.
