Thanks a billion...great explanations and visuals...I usually fall fast asleep on most video how to's...still wide awake and my woodworking abilities just went up 10 fold!
your channel has now become my favorite turning channel. you make it simple to understand, yet you are fun enough to not make it boring. keep up the great work,
I have watched a lot of turning videos trying to get as many tips as I can get as a new turner, your videos have helped me more than all of the others on TH-cam. You provide a lot of very helpful tips in a very entertaining fashion. Thank you for your time and effort.
Really great work Tim. This is the first video I’ve seen that does a good job of showing and explaining how to dye wood. You make this so fun and interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing your time.
Wow this is truly beautiful! I love watching your videos they're very interesting to watch and your commentary is very entertaining . Greetings from a German fan :)
Very nice pieces here, and I really like Bruce's pieces, especially that bowl/plate. This technique is commonly used by luthiers, especially for electric guitars. I'd recommend looking there on YT if you want more examples of using dyes and multi-layered finishes like this.
Some days I regret that my English is so bad, your videos are so awesome, but even if I do not always understand everything you say, I can not get enough of it. Best greetings from Germany
Hi Tim, thank you for this excellent video. Although I've been turning for years, the tips that you gave us about using the hole drill and how to safely use it on the drill press is so important for me personally. I also appreciate the tips on using the hot air dryer and so many other items that you explained. You always do such an excellent job on your instruction videos. Thanks
This is a very informative video and well done, too. I especially like explanations on how the grain and colors inter-relate. I acquired a big batch of 2" x 2" corian samples that make great pendants. I also use wipe-on poly for a finish.
best diy video i have seen i expected you to go to the end and not finish like so many do but you showed start to finish all i can say i THANK YOU i dont have a lathe but great video and you are a great guy for sharing may god bless you for being so cool
Great video Tim :) I'm in the middle of making a checkerboard set and this is just what I was thinking about doing for the checkers. Thanks for the How-To
You gotta love wood turners...only a turner could stretch out a 5 minute project into hours by making the jig that makes the jig that holds the wood so that the actually 30 seconds of lathe work can be completed. Yes I am exaggerating but in the time it took you to make the tenon a normal person could cut the circle and grind the pendant shape on the little belt sander...there is a special place in heaven for wood turners...god bless.
Love the video, and thank you for the instruction about how to approach the cuts with the woodgrain and so on. As a novice this type of information is so vital to me and others like me. Also, thanks for keeping your sense of humor :)
I use India ink from hobby lobby or Amazon it too comes in dozens of colors and is premixed. Great for tops too. Thanks Tim love your videos and the hole saw procedure is genius.
I love your videos. You're so much fun to watch and I also learn something new every time that I can put into practice in the workshop! These are beautiful, I'll be giving them a go for sure!
Such a beautiful I idea. I love the colours of the green one at the end! I love watching your videos, you're funny and I find the art of wood turning absolutely intriguing and beautiful, I always end up on your videos when I'm YT. You make some amazing pieces, keep at it :D
Awesome demo... I have loved your videos for such a long time on pbs.. sooo... back to the project... I'm thinking... Chess pieces.. and board........ hmmmm... wheels turning (pun intended)...
excelente amigo tremendo video gracias me diste una buena entrada de dinero eso se vende mucho aqui la ente le gusta lo brillante gracias saludos desde venezuela
ah gosh absolutely stunning work! i'm no wood turner (although i dream to be one some day!) but it's so calming to watch you work and even joke around. you clearly enjoy your work and i love watching that enthusiasm! by chance, have you considered making a few batches of those pendants and selling them online? i'm so in love with the way these turned out and would like to wear your work! if not, i understand, this is a tutorial. i just don't have the tools to be making these myself as much as i would like! anyways, keep up the fantastic work!
I've got an idea when you're cutting out blank just cut 3" wide strips on a table saw then run them thru a planer on both sides. Hot glue as many strips as you can cut with the hole saw in non cut areas just a few spots will do. I do it this way and turn out a couple hundred in a very short time. Works for me! If you want to know how I do the rest ask me hahaha.
wouldnt it be easier to turn a rod of sorts, round/bevel the edge, and cut that off in a thin disc for a pendant. in stead of using sticky tape to mount a small thing?
man, i wish i had nearly 10,000 dollars to buy one of those lathes, and get a few essential tools, and not to mention some wood to make things with lol...
Eddie Schirmer it's an investment but you don't need 10000 dollars. you can do most of the stuff he does with a rikon mini lathe or a harbor freight lathe and be out 400. you can equip a shop pretty well with 2000. watch Craigslist and estate sales for deals. my friend found a drill press valued at 500 for 90.
To avoid sanding off fingernails against the sanding disk, try wrapping tape around the fingers, sticky side out. Or, use hotmelt glue to stick on a knob. (Oh, and when I went to school, red and yellow make orange, not green.)
Love your videos. Question for you - the dyes you use appear to be Mixol-based. What do you add the color pigment to for the undercoat (you say something about alcohol-based for that layer), and for the upper coats (water-based)? Is it just denatured alcohol, and water? Or is it something else?
Love your work Tim. Love your sense of humour also. As you can see, I spelt Humour wrong. No I didn't, I'm an Aussie so we use the Queens English. Also spelt is not wheat, It's the past tense of spelled in the UK English. Boy! I need to learn wood working so my friggin English isn't such a pain the the "you know what" You've been subscribed and I'll be back. Allan
Very cool project. Wondering if it would be practical to finish the back as well if it’s going to be in contact with skin for some period of time? Sorry this is a comment on an old video!
Hello Tim, I'm Nicolas from France, I love your videos! I was wondering if the other objects you presented were all finished with Wipe on Poly? I can't find it in France. Are there other alternatives for a nice shine? Thanks
I feel like I've seen this video before. Hey Tim, why not apply the dye while it's still on the lathe, then you wouldn't have to remount it.? Cheers! Chris.
Heckin frick, you`re as corny as a movie theatre floor. Love your videos, Tim. The heat gun makes you add oil to your scalp and therefore the lighting is better on the project. 10/10 filming work.
Hi Tim ! Many thanks for spending your precious time for making all these vids (which contains many advices for wood working), and also for sharing your precious expertise !! I'm a Belgian fan ... and sometimes I don't understand all what you (and all english speakers) are saying ... SO, I didn't understood what kind of wood you do use for making these pendants ... Can you tell me please ?
This was a great video and very informative. Regarding the bowls your friend Bruce provided: when dyeing the top rims of the bowls are there any issues with the dye bleeding down the sides? Or ways to limit the bleeding? Thanks again for the great videos!
Tim, did Bruce use a resin to make his tinted items glow like they do, or was it a very hi-gloss urethane? I love your pendants and how you sanded back the black so it didn’t dominate the item! Excellent work my friend. Cheers, Sean
I am pretty sure it was hi-gloss. He might have even buffed them to finish the shine up. It was a few years ago so the old memory is a little lacking :^)
Hi Tim, loved the video, but where do you get the hole saws from. The only ones I can find have a drill bit in the center which obviously leaves a hole in the center of the pendant.
@@duallygsd Thank you Tim, I am English but live on a holiday isle called Lanzarote off the coast of Africa in the Canary Isles, and everything is so difficult to buy as everything has to be imported, but is so expensive. I will try to get one. Many thanks Keith.

Love your sense of humour. Pendants are beautiful, Thanks for sharing.
Spot on! This is how I stained guitars for a major company. Excellent information and humorous delivery!

Totally agree
I love the finish on them.
Dirk van Straaten i agree.
Others just rush through and you have no idea how they got to the finish. Great vids.
Red & Yellow.. orange.. Yellow & Blue ... green. They would make great Christmas Ornaments !! As usual EXCELLET !!
Really great work Tim. This is the first video I’ve seen that does a good job of showing and explaining how to dye wood. You make this so fun and interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing your time.
I've missed your show and am glad i found it again
Thanks again Tim. Love your videos. Keep 'em comin'!
Thanks, entertaining, informative and a pleasure to watch and listen to.
Wow this is truly beautiful! I love watching your videos they're very interesting to watch and your commentary is very entertaining . Greetings from a German fan :)
Thanks Tim. I've been trying to make some coloured wooden cabachons to go in the eye of sauraker shells and this technique worked out perfectly.
Very nice pieces here, and I really like Bruce's pieces, especially that bowl/plate.

These are beautiful. I wish they were available to buy online.
Great channel, and I like your haircut too! Just subscribed. 😀
Red and Yellow make Orange. 😁🍊
something I plan to try
Fill the crack with a carrier and gilt. It will look beautiful. You can use a wax or some other medium. Bruce will still have a beautiful burl.
ah gosh absolutely stunning work! i'm no wood turner (although i dream to be one some day!) but it's so calming to watch you work and even joke around. you clearly enjoy your work and i love watching that enthusiasm! by chance, have you considered making a few batches of those pendants and selling them online? i'm so in love with the way these turned out and would like to wear your work! if not, i understand, this is a tutorial. i just don't have the tools to be making these myself as much as i would like! anyways, keep up the fantastic work!
Nice job as always Tim! What do you think about mounting them off center and cutting grooves on the front of the pendant? Keep up the great work!
Good & funny 👍👌
wow, really pretty! :U

Red and yellow make orange ! blue and yellow make green !nice work though
You should do something with toothpicks and resin!!
man, i wish i had nearly 10,000 dollars to buy one of those lathes, and get a few essential tools, and not to mention some wood to make things with lol...

Hello, what is your finish product and the producer
Thank you for this video
Marc
Bellissime ,complimenti ! Mi Sa dire dove posso trovare codesta vernice lucida , che cos'è uns cera ? Grazie!
in your video on turning pendants why do you start the base black with alcohol base dye and finish with water base? just starting turning pendants.
Hello Tim, I'm Nicolas from France, I love your videos! I was wondering if the other objects you presented were all finished with Wipe on Poly? I can't find it in France. Are there other alternatives for a nice shine? Thanks
Wipe on poly is regular polyurethane thinned down with mineral spirits. You should be able to make your own😊
I feel like I've seen this video before. Hey Tim, why not apply the dye while it's still on the lathe, then you wouldn't have to remount it.? Cheers! Chris.
Heckin frick, you`re as corny as a movie theatre floor. Love your videos, Tim. The heat gun makes you add oil to your scalp and therefore the lighting is better on the project. 10/10 filming work.
What's the outcome if all your dyes are alcohol based, does it make a difference?
Hi Pat. It makes no difference in the end. The only advantage of water-based dyes is a wider range of color choices.
That's amazing... Question?what kind of color is that at 17.54.....?
Hi Tim !
Many thanks for spending your precious time for making all these vids (which contains many advices for wood working), and also for sharing your precious expertise !!
I'm a Belgian fan ... and sometimes I don't understand all what you (and all english speakers) are saying ...
SO, I didn't understood what kind of wood you do use for making these pendants ...
Can you tell me please ?
It is figured maple. Another name for it is quilted maple. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this fastier answer ! ;)
Also known as Tiger Maple as well?
This was a great video and very informative. Regarding the bowls your friend Bruce provided: when dyeing the top rims of the bowls are there any issues with the dye bleeding down the sides? Or ways to limit the bleeding? Thanks again for the great videos!
Love the Pendants. Where did you get the double sided tape at and what is the name brand of the tape.
I can't remember the brand but I got it at Woodcraft
So It's just the wipe on poly that makes it so shiny? Thank you. Please say what is this poly exactly. Thanks
Tim, did Bruce use a resin to make his tinted items glow like they do, or was it a very hi-gloss urethane? I love your pendants and how you sanded back the black so it didn’t dominate the item! Excellent work my friend. Cheers, Sean
I am pretty sure it was hi-gloss. He might have even buffed them to finish the shine up. It was a few years ago so the old memory is a little lacking :^)
Hi Tim, loved the video, but where do you get the hole saws from. The only ones I can find have a drill bit in the center which obviously leaves a hole in the center of the pendant.
Boy that was a while ago. I think that was a Milwaukee hole saw.
@@duallygsd Thank you Tim, I am English but live on a holiday isle called Lanzarote off the coast of Africa in the Canary Isles, and everything is so difficult to buy as everything has to be imported, but is so expensive. I will try to get one. Many thanks Keith.
Hello Tim, great video! Can you give the part numbers from Rio Grand for the bails and magnetic necklace? Thank you.
Como e o nome desse produto exposto no video?
