Thanks Mike!
A lovely looking work of art Heather, keep them coming.
Thank you Brent!
Great piece!
Thank you so much ❤️
👍👍🤝
Beautifully done Heather. Really like the process and the jigs you have made. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Clint
Love the pattern. I like the idea of only the rim being decorated as well. I may very well need to steal this idea for an upcoming Live. Great job Heather.
You go right ahead and steal it Doug! It's a pretty easy pattern too
Nice👍🤝
Fantastic work!
That is badass! I too have done indexed turnings with home made jigs. I have not tried the basketweave pattern though. It is beautiful though and I might have to try it now. I had to make an indexing wheel myself to fit between the chuck and spindle since I don’t own a chuck with index holes. I could have used the lathe indexer but it wasn’t divided into enough sections. I built a jig with a small trim router much like you did with the pencil holder which you could slide left and right against a stop block on the ways and cut grooves radially. Making the stop block perpendicular to the axis of rotation gave you a consistent depth of groove, angling the stop block would allow you to cut a tapered groove that had a pretty stunning effect . You can adjust the height to cut on the center line or above or below. I even added a hinge on it so I could make arcs on the rim. Very cool outcomes. I was thinking you could do the same thing with your pyro tool and skip the pencil marking and go right to the burning of the radial lines. The lines would be very straight that way also and reduce the time I think required. Just a thought. I can’t remember the name of the turner who inspired me to do these turnings but you could probably find him somewhere. He was using a manufactured router jig and indexer. Might have been Jimmy Clewes. I couldn’t justify buying one. Was expensive. Wasn’t in my budget. Was cheap to build my own. The router easily cuts the grooves and it goes pretty quick. The burner might also be quick this way. Anyway, really nice project with a stunning effect here! Take care, Scott
Thanks for all the ideas Scott! I've seen the videos of using a router jig too, but can't find it now, I'm sure it's still out there somewhere.
I don't mind having to burn the lines separately, because it gives it a more "hand woven" look, not so machine made. ( but yes, it would be faster).
I also made an indexing wheel, for more sections that aren't multiples of 12.
I never thought about marking tapered lines before! I may just have to give it a try!
And I'm also too cheep to buy something that I can make, but, sometimes the time it takes to make something is more than the cost of buying it.
Thanks for watching ❤️
Well done Heather

Very cool piece...please let me know where you got the patience to do all this fine work...i could use some😊...stay safe...press on 😎Joe
I live on 6.5 acres of forest. That's where I find my peace✌️ ☮️
Patience required, (more than I have). And I would spend more time fixing mistakes than making good progress!
Thank Val! Just need to go slow!
