Wow! Great video. I thoroughly enjoy your wood making videos, and love the charm you add into them! Awesome sphere, looks stunning! Stay well, and keep turning.
I just ordered one. Amazing that this jig hasn't been seen before on youtube. Looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful sphere. I had no idea how to turn one. Thanks for showing us how it's done.
What a great peace of kit! And ably demonstrated.
That’s awesome...! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool tool for spheres. Now all I have to do is save up for a set. Thanks, Tim!
interesting perspective. Love the design. nice job.
Tim, thanks again.....always fun and learn something always. Guess I will find out the damages for such a inventive tool! Stay safe and cheers from MT
Nice, you make it looks so easy. Thanks
Very nice tool! Great demo! Thanks
Nice! Good to see a new video by the way!
Oh wow, really made it look simple
awesome system thanks for showing it to us
love ur energy and passion, i am a total fan now. cheers :)
What a fabulous jig set. Very impressive. I might even be able to make a sssppheeerree myself. Thanks for uploading this Tim. You are a star. Have a great Christmas.
Beautiful!
I love this! You bring a “woodshop teacher” persona and I appreciate the humor. Keep making awesome videos man!
Thanks for sharing
Ah . . . so Stumpy became Art. Good job! (And great video!)
Very nice job sir, well done.
For dummies, just what I was looking for! 😆🧲💊🧪🧩😎😋
Great video as usual. Can believe the comments Alan Stratton made on his channel. Keep up the good work Tim 👍
Tim yoder smart talented man. I admire you sir.alohomewoodturning carlos.i'm small turner from the phillipines.
The parting tool looks like a standard metal lathe carbide carrier. Clever idea.
This is an interesting approach to spheres. I thought Alan Stratton's technique for spheres made then pretty simple but I think this goes a step further. Thank you for sharing. Have a good day and continue to stay healthy. BTW I could not find a link to Thomas's web page.
There is a little downward pointing arrow to the right of the video title. Click or tap that, after doing that you should be able to see a link to a German website. If you are using Google chrome as your web browser it will offer to translate the German.
This is going on my Christmas list... for me! 🎅🎄🎁🎁
Tim, since you have already dealt with Thomas maybe you could become a US dealer and help the rest of us purchase this system too?
I tried :^) Maybe this will convince him to expand. He seems to be happy just making small runs of products. I can understand where he is coming from. Scaling up takes a lot of effort and time.
Very nice , well done. I like it❤👌👌👌
That was great
Awesome
Wonderful,👍👍👍
You are amazing 👏
Very interesting!
What is the purpose of the ring that you fixed with tape?
need to find more of that wood and make a giant Pecan the wood looked like pecan shell
bravo bravo complimenti 👍👍
How do I go about getting that hold down set? Thanks for the video
I’d LOVE TO HAVE A ROBUST LATHE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
www.turnrobust.com/ If you have any questions you can email me at info@wtwtim.com
What V-Block are you using on the bandsaw?
The center set is cool, but for a tool I think you wood do better to use a Bedan than your carbides. The bedan will fairly easlily turn a sphere between normal centers, it would be awesome with this set.
I have been trying to order from him for about 6 months and still no luck. Will try again.
That's prettycool.
Time stamp 00:12::55 theres a smile on the sphere 😊
Tim, how did you purchase? I cannot get website to convert to English. Very interested. Thanks for sharing video.
Wow, she is stunning. Watch Paul Lockwood turn sphere's by eye.
Sorry I didnt see the link for the sphere jig. Would you be kind enough to give it to me please? Btw that sphere came out really cool
Awesome *
Would like to have one, could not get to link.
Is their an English version of Thomas Hackle's site ?
Nice system. I visited the web site but don’t speak German so is there an easier way to purchase this? Thanks!
If you're using Chrome (browser) it provides generated translation for websites, you access this with the little icon left of the "Favorite" (Star shape) symbol if available.
Example; i.imgur.com/JDyQP6s.png Look where the red arrow in the top right is pointing. If that symbol shows up (it should for this website if you don't speak German) just click it and click "English", it will translate the whole site. When you open sub-pages on the site, you may have to reset the translator thingy.
Couldn’t get the link to translate to English and can’t figure out how to order or how much it is.
Tim you need to become a dealer for the Thomas Hackle sphere jig. I could not read German therefore I was unable to order.
Ciao TIM, sei molto bravo a fare le sfere a mano libera, ma se tu avessi bisogno di uova di struzzo io sono un campione. congratulazioni signor Yoder. Roberto Coiante un italiano.
Wow! Beautiful. Where did you get that cool band saw holding tool for round stock?
its called a "V" block used mainly in machine shops, id do a quick google search i know an aluminum one like that will be fairly inexpensive
Found one, Amazon, $20 plus tax. Thanks for the help.
Tim. Are you going to sell the sphere Jig in the future? I went to the site but it’s all in German.
Also interested in purchase a jig
Why do I always think of shopping at Whole Foods while I'm watching you... weird and random.
Giday Tim I've a father who has a farm in Hopetoun western Australia and I hate the timber going to waste over here can I send you a piece with the idea of maybe getting a few lovers of it as I do if so please let me know thanks
What was the price with shipping in dollars? I was trying to find a place to see the details in English but, couldn't find any translations.
Hey Tim! How big of a spheres can you turn with that jig? Also, I don't speak/read German, how much is it and how can I buy one? Thanks!
Tim I really liked the video and the sphere looked great. However, when you were cutting the blank on the final pass (~1:05 into the video) I noticed sparks from the bandsaw blade. It either hit something in the wood or more likely the blade was hitting part of the upper guide. It is worth a check. If it was the upper guide, a quick setup tuneup will take care of it. Be safe and stay well so you can bring us more enjoyable videos. Cheers, Tom
Yep it was the upper guide. As you can tell I don't speak 'bandsaw' very well :^) Do you know of an article or video I could use to tune up my saw? I bought some ceramic guides and still haven't had time to figure out how to install them.
woodturningwithtim1 Check out “Bandsaw Tuneup with Alex Snodgrass” on Bandsaw Life’s TH-cam channel. There are several other TH-cam videos on tuning up your saw. I have seen Alex do his bandsaw clinic at several Woodworking Shows over the years (always made it a point to sit through at least one of his demos each show) and used his techniques to get an old Tri-Star (Delta clone) working better than some of my friends brand new saws. When I came across a fantastic deal on a 14” ShopFox, in like new conditions, I got it and then the Carter and Son guide sets that Alex is the frontman for. I couldn’t be happier. I hope this helps. Cheers, Tom
woodturningwithtim1 As for ceramic (Cool Blocks), as long as they are installed so they are just shy of the blade (dollar bill thickness away) and are just up to the gullets on the blade, they work well for side play. Top and bottom side guides are similarly set up. The back guide (usually a rotating bearing must be smooth and free wheeling) should also be spaced slightly back from the blade so it doesn’t normally touch the blade. With the blade tensioned (~1/4” side play checked at the back side of the top wheel is best) you should be set. Cheers, Tom
One more way to make a sphere! Luckily I learned the classic way and do a pretty good job without a bunch of aids. But I can see where the system would work well for someone not yet proficient in turning spheres. thanks for showing us the system.
Hi Tim I really enjoy all your videos. Can you give me advice on face masks, which is the most comfortable for you? I'm using an RZ mask at the moment but it hurts after a while around my nose and when i loosen it a bit the dust gets in. I see one from M3, FFA2P3 R D. However I think it is only sold in the UK? Whats yours like? I have a beard similar to yours.
Jimmy, for strictly dusty environments like turning and sanding on the lathe I wear a Trend AIR/PRO Airshield and Faceshield Dust Protector. It's a little pricy, but less so than a lung transplant, or even just a trip to the emergency room. I don't sell or work for them, you can see the product at smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B002Q0Y5IU/, take a look and see what you think.
@@WesleyJolly thank you for your advice.
My wife said “he’s a lot less out of breath”. I said chainsaw work is hard work 😅. Nice sphere.
Great video Tim, just bought the tools, happy days.
How much is the tool?
@@bubbabrian Think I paid £180
Could not figure out how to change the website to English
Went through and purchased the sphere jig! Excited to try and make some spheres. How long did shipping take for you? Shipping cost seemed extremely reasonable to me.
I think it was less than two weeks.
Fearless spheres
I'd love to buy a Robust Lathe from you Tim, but the shipping to New Zealand would be a bit to much. Is there a Robust dealer here in NZ?
Contact me at info@wtwtim.com I am checking into dealers near you.
That is pretty awet
I don't even want to know what you paid for that chunk. But if I had to guess, it was north of $300.
Lol. I liked that log bowl before!
The timber is Blackbutt Burl.
current exchange shows the tool set to be about $253.00, about what was the shipping cost for you? I am really thinking about getting one of these.
I think it was around $35.
Went to the website but could not get it to translate, Would like to purchase this
went there it had a english verson
dddriller1 I also couldn’t find the English version
dddriller1 can you share the English link?
@@gregj2647 sorry google translated it for me i didnt know when i said it
Where to buy a robust lathe, ?
www.turnrobust.com/ If you have any questions you can email me at info@wtwtim.com
How to translate the site for those wondering; i.imgur.com/JDyQP6s.png Click at the symbol the Red Arrow in the Top Right is pointing at, then click "English".
May not be available with a browser besides Chrome.
$245.80 ( USD ). Plus shipping...Not exorbitant, but you would really like making spheres to justify the cost. Nice piece of kit.. as the Brits like to say.
Tim, when you cut the tenons off at the bandsaw you had the wood on some kind of a V shaped jig. Where can I get one? Also, great lesson.
Rob, that is called a Center-It Drill Jig. Eastwood and Rockler carry them and you can find them on Amazon. Try a search and you'll see many of them re-branded for sale. They are $17 here: www.trick-tools.com/Center_It_Drill_Jig_CI_1_1154
@@flashgordon6238 Thanks. Just ordered it.
Wow ... at today's exchange rate, that is US$247.38 + 16% VAT + shipping! The guy who does the Robust ad sounds a lot like Brent English.
You are correct sir! That is the infamous...I mean famous Brent in the flesh...or rather voice.
Rubber chucky has a similar set up. Maybe you could do a comparison?
Rubber Chucky's website says that they basically stole the idea from someone in Germany. They also claim to have made some improvements to the original design.
Nice! I thought I might be one of the only people still using the 1920's term "cheaters". LoL
I got a facemask on cause you got to protect the beauty.
Yup, you wouldn't look the same with a big ole scar on the dome ! 😂
Oh ya, that's a pretty cool spherical kit too.
50 mm is 2 inches, almost exactly.
Finally, a video made for people like me
Enjoyed the video you have a blessed day in the name of Jesus
There's a big add right where his hands are...I click the "x" and it takes me away from the video to the sight of the advertisement!!! I can't see what he's instructing because of the ad!!! I guess it's time to swap to bing. Unacceptable TH-cam/google.
I just watched your video I didn't have a sore head but have one now what a waste of time I can free hand cut spheres in a lot less time than using that hackle jig thing
$254.00 plus shipping. Just to make balls?
Tim if you don't know metrics vs imperial conversions don't bother trying. It's embarrassing as in England we can do this by age 8 at the latest.
HEE HEE
How is this for dummies? You spent $100s on a sphere jig that most of the public won’t have...
why are you using these stupid newbie carbide scrapers. makes no sense for someone who can use real tools
love this...too bad i don't speak german to order this kit online...
Way to complicated and not everyone can afford your machinery 👎👎👎
