Wood Turning the Knucklebones Bowl

  • It seems the Great Illusion did start as a quilting pattern made by Ruth Ann Berry
    I make another Illusion bowl which reminds me of a game we played as kids.
    The name Knucklebones comes from the game Jacks.
    This one is much easier and has a different look even though the center is the same.
    I was asked to give the dimension and shapes of the piece in my Great Illusion. So at the end of this video I will have a short section with that information.
    Made from Oak, Cherry, Maple and Cambia Poplar (AKA Roasted Poplar)

    Geeze, I'm always pleasantly surprised when I find I've successfully tied my shoes in the morning. I just cannot wrap my head around how you create these incredible illusions, Gary. And, I watch, and I rewind, and I try! It's just not in my make-up. But, fortunately for the woodturning world, it's in yours and that, along with your patience in explaining step by step, I know these videos of yours will be with us for many, many years to come. You've created quite the library of reference materials for segments in general and illusions in particular. Keep at it, professor, you are a treasure! 😊

      Thank you so much Phil for your very kind words. They are much appreciated. I have a habit of never tying my shoes and not sure if I remember how anymore.
      I do enjoy making these and have a few other illusions I want to do.
      I kept thinking the illusion I did before this came from the knitting world. A viewer pointed out someone name Ruth Ann Berry and I looked her books up. While looking at some of the work there it was. The Great Illusion I did a few weeks ago. Amazing work she does with yarn. If I tried to do it in yarn it would look a big blob of yarn bunched up.
      I do plan on getting a nice little log for my next turning and then I have another surprise in the works.
      Keep doing what you can because we all look forward to what ever you do.
      Take care my friend,

    What I appreciate about this setup is that no material is wasted. Other assemblies made with solid wood require turning to the final shape, losing a lot of wood.
    And the final effect is fantastic.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you very much Marcelo. For sure it does save wood. But buying the wood this way cost much more than a chunk of wood from a tree.
      And very little of that gets wasted as we use it around the garden and some of the shavings can be used for smoking food.
      Other wise those pieces get turned into firewood.

    Excellent project Gary! I love these kinds of efforts. This was my first love when I began to work with wood in high school. Probably goes back before that when I played with building blocks as a kid. But I love these geometric patterns, and all the different illusions and shapes that can be made from them. There is no end to playing around with these shapes. I love how you explain so well how you do everything. Providing dimensions as well is really helpful. That way all the cool stuff that you do, we can all try as well. Thank you for everything you do. See you next week!

      @ThePapa1947  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much Mark. I have always love these things as well. As a kid I would get a new toy and after a week I tore it apart to see how it worked. That is what I am told. I am the youngest out of 8.
      I knew these shapes were old and today a viewer pointed out someone who has a book on knitting illusions. So now I know where this actually came from. Now I may need to try more of what she has done. Matter of fact I saw a cutting board that I am sure came from what she did and that might be next. But ,mine will be a bowl.

    Gary, I really like your videos. All beautiful work. I made the knucklebones bowl using butternut, maple, and cherry with black walnut as the rest of the base. I discovered that there is really no need for precise measurements of the component pieces. What I did was rip all my stock to the same thickness ( I used 0.75 inches ) and then use the stock to set the distance between the saw blade teeth and the stop on the fence. For the 6 dark triangles and the diamonds use one stock thickness. For the parallelograms and trapezoids use 2 stock thicknesses. Everything comes out perfect without any fiddling or measuring. I made dozens of components so in addition to the bowls I am using the knucklebones feature as the centre on some charcuterie boards.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว

      You are correct there is not need to measure anything unless you are trying to make something to an exact dimension.
      I did not measure mine either. But others needed or wanted those dimensions just to get started and understand the process.
      Good to hear it all worked out for you.
      I think I mentioned that what ever the first piece works out to be then work off of it not the dimensions I have.
      Thanks for pointing that out I sure it will help others to understand.

      I have done a few segmented bowls they take a lot of time but we’ll worth the job satisfaction when finished. You guys get beautiful wood. The climate here is so different and thus also the wood. My kiln is full all the time in order to reduce the serious moisture content. I🤣🤣

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      For sure segmented work takes more time than turning chunks of logs but is rewarding.
      Where do you live? We have a local hardwood store that imports wood from all over the world so lots of choices. What I used on this turning is all fairly local but kiln dried and cut into boards of various sizes.

      I live in Ireland. Gotta be the wettest place on the planet. 🤣🤣. Not too much really nice timber makes it this far I’m afraid. It’s nice to be able to get gorgeous timber locally. Would it be quite expensive to buy that locally for you? I would say it would cost an arm and a leg to order from over seas to here. I remember ordering a pack of 5 pen blanks one time, tiger wood, took 6 weeks to get here. It was lovely though to turn though.

      @@pmacd9760 we have a lot of wood that grows locally. I was able to get all of a English Walnut tree that had to be taken down because it had died. I cut up the blanks and then some of the cuts I made into strips for segment work and dried them in my kiln made from a cardboard box.
      The price of wood that I get kiln dried has gone. Price from $5.00 a board foot to $30 for the exotic stuff. Which I do not buy. Something Padauk is around $10-12 a board foot. The price changes as they get their orders in.

    For those who can use it, a FREE WARE cad program can make the design phase a whole lot easier, or pay the big bucks, your choice.
    What always gets me is the actual illusion caused by the different shades of wood and their alignment.
    Your skill is always apparent, and your knowledge of these processes shows every time. Yes, you were a pattern maker, and that helps, but this is art not mechanics, even if some mechanical things are involved. Great video. '-)

The program I bought has built in CAM which I use for CNC work. It also as a decent ART program where I can do engravings. Not a big bucks program but it works.
      Yes the shades of wood and how they are stacked up is what makes this work.

      Thank you very much. Math was about all I was good at. That and shop class. Paid off because I used both in my job as a wood pattern maker.
      Thanks for watching,
