Woodturning - An Oak Crotch .... Simple?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- I needed to make some room in my log storage area within my workshop so I decided to chuck this piece on the lathe. Each year we cut logs for our log burners and I always get to keep a small quota. This piece was part of last years stash.
I didn't really have much of a design in mind with this one. What I knew was I wanted a shorter vase but until you start turning you don't know what the wood is going to tell you. Once I saw the log had a big flat area after I turned it down I decided to highlight it in the design as I didn't want to make the vase any smaller.
I'm really pleased with the finished piece. I love the character the wood has, and the weird holed pattern I've given it. The Oak has been sanded to 700 grit and finished with Danish Oil and Wood wax.
Let me know what you think 😁👍

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. I am still relatively new to woodturning and some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest. When using any tools or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines.
Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practise. The gloves I wear are tight fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing.
Really cool. Love the shape and the texturing . We'll done!
Thanks Kent, I appreciate the comments 🪵😃👍

You certainly didn't let a knot get in the way of the finished piece! Looks good and even sets off the knot! Skill is one thing, creativity is much harder to come by, but you seem to have both in perfect sync with each other! :D
Thank you for your support and kind comments DarkVoidlll. I have just posted my 60th video so plenty to catch up on.....😃👍
Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉
Magnifique bravo bravo wunderbar bonne soirée
Thank you Gérard you are too kind! 😃👍
Awesome work as always. That is a stunning piece.
Thanks as always Jiggsy 😃👍
Rip to the dirty minded people who thought this was gonna be something else...
😂🤣🪵😃👍
Why the hell haven't you ground the thread off the point of that auger bit?
What a great approach to hilight the character in this piece. I’m adding this to my repertoire immediately. Thank you
Thanks Bill 😃👍
Very nice video bro
Thanks for watching 👀 Amin 😃👍
I love the look and smell of oak. The grain, rippling and colouring is really emphasised by the finish. Truely beautiful... 😁
Thank you very much! Oak is definitely the best smelling wood 😋😁👍
I finish oak floors when You sand it red oak smells like pickles.
@@MrBakedDaily Is that Dill pickles??
Just think that old piece of wood could have been a hundred ole round tuits but it became a work of art
Becky it always takes me a while to get around tuit! 😂🤣👍
It is very interesting to look at. A great conversation piece.
Thank you Chanda ... 😃🪵👍

What kind of oil do you use finaly, please?
Skill yang luar biasa..👍👍
Thank you Cipta 😃👍
Awesome job but just a piece of advice…. You shouldn’t be using gloves while working with rotating equipment. Any machinist will tell you this. If that machine grabs any part of your glove you will be in trouble
Hi Ernesto thanks for your comment and the H&S reminder. I have always worn gloves, it is a subject that is regularly raised in the comments field on here. I always cover this within the description field and disclaimer. It works for me but I do not promote their use to others, it is very much a personal choice. 👍😃
@@HarrySmithShorts Thank you for your replay. As long as you are aware of the risk everything is ok.
I haven't the machine and tools to make that wonderful works but I see all your works. Congratulations!!!!! That's amazing!!!!!
Thank you so much Isaias! 😁😊👍
I can't imagine this being a center piece for one life after all it just a block of wood
Thanks for your constructive comment 😃👍
very very perfect and awesome👍👍
Thank you so much Rumah! 😊👍
Good work sir keep it up
Thank you very much Sajad! 👍
I clicked on this for the wrong reason. Nice work though!
Thanks Real Dreamers, thanks for commenting and finding me....😃👍
What if you hit those stipples areas you created with a blowtorch before sanding for some contrast?
Thanks for watching! I did think about doing that. I'll have to give it a try in a future project 👍
Love it Harry and the texturing fits in perfectly. Take care Harry. Cheers, Huw
Thank you Huw. 😃👍
I have a 50yr old ornamental pear tree I'm removing this year. I will get about 8ft of trunk 8inch in diameter. I'm getting a local crafter to make some stuff for me out of it. A lovely way to remember the years of beauty that was in my backyard.
Really nice work Harry, turned out quite perfect! Love it! 🙏👏👏🤩
Thank you very much Nik! 😁😊👍
Beautiful...
Thank You For Sharing.
Many thanks Kim 😃👍
Love The Added Texture ~ ❣️♥️❣️♥️❣️ 😻♥️👍🏼
Thank you Angela! I wanted to try something different and it worked 😊😁
I wasn't sure the dimpling with the dremel was going to look that great but it turned out to be a very nice creative touch. Well done.

The pattern triggers my trypophobia
Hi Stephen I hope you are feeling better, would a more geometrical pattern help? 🤔
You’re creating magic! It’s a stunning piece of work.

I love watching this take shape, but can never foresee what the end result is going to be. They are always so beautiful, art really. Who knew that odd shaped piece of a tree could be this!

Great piece, Harry. What finish did you use?
Hi Donovan, it's danish oil and wood wax. Take a look in the description, (the down chevron next to the title). This gives more information on the piece, including finishes and back story. Thanks for watching 👍
Is it possible to buy it ? 😊
Look in the about section there is an email for questions and quotes
Thanks for watching Joel! Most of my pieces are for sale, feel free to email me if you want to discuss further 😁👍

The texturing certainly adds to the interest of the piece!
Thank you Stephanie! I wanted to try something different 😊😁
parabéns
Thank you 🪵😃👍
I have a question for whoever knows the answer. why did he change to a different chuck at 1:58? It holds the wood harder and safer?
Interessante
Just WOW!!!
Thank you very much Harvey! 😁👍
Beautiful!
Thank you so much Norm! 😁👍
Turning oak can be a bear! Nice job on the piece 👌

Awesome job. I love how the stippling (or whatever you wanna call it lol) turned out and the wood grain really popped with that finish too nice job!
