Could you PM me your details so that I can give you a "proper" mention in a future video?
Love ya work Mike thanks for sharing.
Cheers Aussie Chris
Thanks for letting us watch your process
Thank you Norman much appreciated.
I can’t get ever the shine of that wood, even without finishing. Great video as always, thanks for sharing this!
Thank you Per
Cheers
Mike
When you have the blank trued up, I just love the looks of that piece of wood, how it shines when you rotate it!
Thanks for this series, Mike. I highly appreciate it!
Peter Wilhelmsson yeah, even on my smaller phone screen the shatoiance really shines. Beautiful wood for sure.
+Peter Wilhelmsson
It's a lovely piece of wood for sure Peter, looking forward to getting it finished :)
Cheers Mike
Excellent conclusion to an excellent series! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Alex, much appreciated
Cheers
Mike
Another brilliant mini series Mike, thanks muchly... always learning 👍🏼😊
Glad you enjoyed it Marc, and thanks too for your support.
Cheers
Mike
Another great tutorial Mike. I agree that you can do most things without a chuck, just takes a little more thinking and care.
Thank you for the shout out!
+Paul Lockwood
Thanks Paul, and I'm happy to hear that you concur.
Cheers Mike
Love this series! I'm just getting into turning, and I'm in love! I hope to get a face-plate this coming month, and a bowl gouge as soon as I can afford it.
Thank you Zen enjoy your turning journey.
Thanks Mike for all the great videos these turning without a chuck videos are fantastic takes me back to the days before chucks readily available an we made do with what we had
Glad you enjoyed the series Jerry.
Take care
Mike
Great series Mike. I learned a lot on each one of the three. I'll be using these methods on my mini lathe as my chuck won't fit on the tiny spindle. They make an adapter but no funds available right now. Lots of small projects are now possible, thanks to this series.
+Gil Grace
Glad you found the series useful Gil.
Thanks for your support mate
Cheers
Mike
Love all 3 in the series, and will have a go at all of them. As per Zen below, I'm just getting into wood turning and am trying to work out what chuck to buy, so this has given me the opportunity to try out number of different areas before investing. Also appreciate the emphasis on safety, an area sadly lacking in other videos I've seen. Thanks again for helping out us newbies.
Thanks Tony much appreciated.
I'm New to turning and always find your Episodes very informative concise, thank you
Thank you Graham much appreciated.
Thanks taking the time to make this video. Definitely helpful!
Glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for watching and commenting.
Cheers
Mike
This will no doubt be the 'go to' series for beginners Mike. Again, concise and clear guidance.
Well done mate! 👍🍺
Thank you very much Dave, appreciate that mate.
take care
Mike
thanks Mike, I just watched all three and they were all very interesting and worthwhile. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to demonstrate the techniques. Very much appreciated, Russell
Hi Russell, and thank you, I'm very pleased to hear that you enjoyed them.
Take care
Mike
Nice series of alternative mounting techniques, Mike! Should prove to be very helpful to many turners who don't yet have a chuck. Great work!
Thank you, appreciate your kind words and support.
Take care
Mike
Another brilliant learning opportunity. Thanks Mike. Being tight on funding I wish I had waited and seen this series before spending money on a chuck system. Still would be a good bit to practice for when the chuck is otherwise engaged as in attached to a segmented piece that's got glue setting up for the next ring.
Oh, and kuddos to the craftsman (Paul Lockwood) who did the scroll saw plaque, it's bloody good.
Thank you Thomas, this method can be used for many other, hard to hold in a chuck projects too :)
Yes, Paul did a magnificent job and was very honoured and pleased with my gift.
Take care
Mike
Can't wait to give it a try, thanks for the lesson.
Glad you found the video useful Russell.
Lovely stuff once again Mike. Very useful little series and an object lesson demonstrating that there are "no barriers" for woodturning! There's always a safe method despite the absence of optimum equipment!
Best regards
Eddie
Thanks Mike now I finally understand how to get the center with a caliper, always learn from you.
+gA
Glad to be of service

Mike
Thanks Mr.Mike that was very informational
Stunning Likeness, I think I would also be very proud to display the 'Plate' and a lot of hard work. I do like your 'Gizmo'. I think I will have to make one
+Peter Compton
Paul did a superb job Peter, the "gizmo" is a very handy and ready to make bit of kit :)
Cheers Mike
Well demonstrated Mike nice job for anyone without a chuck.
+M. Stratton
Thanks Mick, appreciate your stopping by mate

Excellent video and maybe something we should all try, however many chucks that we may have.
Many thanks
James
+icespeckledhens
Thanks James, this method has many different uses.
Cheers
Mike
Thank you so much for this video. I'm new to turning and mainly turn pens but am slowly getting into larger items and alas I have no chuck. Thus has helped me immensely. Thank you.
Hi Mark, glad to hear the video was of some use.
Enjoy the turning journey.
Cheers
Mike
I don't know how you find the time Mike. But you manage to reply to all comments. I have PMd you on facebook, and you have always taken the time to reply. That is so so appreciated. It makes us video watchers feel special. You do a fantastic job (if that's the right word)
Hi again Paul, and once more, a big thank you. I can't always respond as quickly as I'd like, but I always try to answer everyone in the end :)
Take care
Mike
PS - I feel that if someone takes the time and trouble to comment, the least you can do is reply.
Paul did a great job . It looks a lot like you . Good series Mike . Cheers take care .
+Glen mckelvey
Thanks on both counts Glen, Paul sure had much talent...and patience!
Cheers
Mike
Great work there Mike. I mite just have a go at these. Have a great week mate....
Thanks Robert, go on, give it a go mate ;)
Take care
Mike
Grande Mike, i tuoi insegnamenti sono sempre perfetti e molto molto utili.
Grazie!!

Grazie molto Franco
Saluti
Mike
Thanks for the refresher Mike!
I just bought a new lathe (Laguna 2436) and realized that none of my chucks would fit without adapters.
While waiting for them to arrive I still want to play with my new toy and couldn't quite remember the process of turning without a chuck. It's been quite awhile.
This series of tutorials was perfect. Again, many thanks for taking the time.
Glad to hear that you found the video of some use.
thanks for watching.
Cheers
Mike
Glad you found some use in the video, and hope (as I know you will) enjoy your new lathe. I have always liked the look of the Laguna, and think you get a lot of quality for a very reasonable price.
Thanks for watching
Take care
Mike
Mike, that was informative! Useful video!
Thank you Aleksey
Cheers
Mike
Thanks for the review. I have turned hundreds of Christmas tree ornaments with glue blocks including some very delicate finials. Currently I am turning 48 2" x 6" bowls and in order to retain as much depth in the bowl as possible i am using glue block. It is kinda fun to return to some old ways
A pleasure Brent, and I'm very pleased to hear that you too, have much faith in the integrity of glue blocks.
Take care
Mike
Thanks Mike! Good to know I can try turning bowls to see if I like it before I invest in a scroll chuck.
Glad you found the video of some help.
Cheers
Mike
Thank you for sharing the great video 🤝
My pleasure, and thank you for watching Tomas
Cheers
Mike
Awesome, Mike! You must be one of the world's great hot glue promoters! I love that stuff and there seems to be no end to the number of uses for it.
That looks like a lovely bowl. I have never heard of Agba before and would really like to see what it looks like properly finished! Your next video??? Thanks a lot, Mike!
Take care,
.....Gord
Thank you Gord, and a big LOL :)
I intend to finish the bowl, and will probably video it too, providing I don't go through the bottom!! ;)
Take care
Mike
Really good explanation of the technique.
Glad you found it useful.
Mike, A good exercise. Makes me appreciate my chuck even more. :)
Alan
Thanks Alan, you were one of the "inspirers" but I was a little late in following it up ;)
Cheers
Mike
Nice piece of wood, Mike. Lovely light play from it, I must get some. I hope you finish the bowl. Apart from wanting to see the light play again I will be interested in how you go about it without a tenon. Regards, Mike
Hi Mike, and thank you. I am certain that the finishing of the bowl will feature in a future video.
Take care
Mike
Thank you, Mike, for another great tip. The portrait is a great and a well-deserved tribute to your contribution to woodturning. I must confess that the photo of the old bloke wearing a baseball cap to the left of the portrait is a bit frightening:-).
Alan.
+Alan Simpson
Hi Alan, glad you enjoyed the video, and yes I totally agree with you about the other picture ;)
Cheers
Mike
Thank you. I'm learning a lot.
That's great to hear Jimi, and thank you for your support, it's much appreciated.
Cheers
Mike
Lovely work mick
Thank you James
Cheers
Mike
Thanks for the help 👍
Thank you for watching, happy to hear you liked the video.
Thanks Mike. Fantastic. I have chucks, but this is invaluable information. I love your videos. Have watched a lot of American ones, but they are too loud, and to over the top. Much prefer your gentle presentation. It actually makes me serene, listening to you added to the great tips.
Hi Paul, and thank you so much for your very kind words. I do hope that they are not too serene ... and you fall asleep!! ;)
Take care
Mike
Great video .Thank you, sir
Thanks James, appreciate it
Cheers
Mike
Thank you Mike, take care
Thank YOU Val :)

Mike
I like your gizmo at 4.15. I must make one of those!
It's very handy to have in the armoury Tom :)
Cheers
Mike
Great video.
Thank you
Cheers
Mike
Thank you very much! this is so usefull! Subscribed!
Thank you.
When was a kid I turned a slew of bowls on my Dad's flat belt driven lathe not knowing there was such a thing as a chuck for a wood lathe. We were gluing a block directly to the blank with paper between. Screw the face plate into the block and turn both sides with the concave side facing out.
Hi Allen ... I am a great advocate for glue blocks, I think they are both under rated and under used.
interesante como siempre gracias por ello jorge de argentina
+jorge fernandez
Thank you for watching Jorge
Cheers
Mike
Thank you Mike, I have a very small scroll chuck ( 2 " ) and was turning a bowl and the tennon snapped off so now going to try a glue block with CA and hot glue
Hi Douglas, just make sure the glue is as hot as your gun will get it, and that both surfaces are dry. Stay safe.
@@MikeWaldt Thank you for the advice Mike, Keep the great work coming 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the video im just getting into turning and iv watched alot of videos on turning and NONE of them are without a Chuck and as of right now i dont have the money to get a chuck after buying the lathe Wife said no to getting the chuck lol so happy wife happy life. No chuck for this guy.... So thank you for the idea ill be sure to give it a try
Glad you found the video of some use, and thanks for watching.
Cheers
Mike
Great way to finish the series, Mike. Like your gizmo to centre a faceplate. It makes a doddle to get your work balanced. Saves being chased around the shop by a lathe on a kamikaze mission! I've been marking the centre of the work as you do. Then use a child's compass with a centre wheel set at half the diameter. Pop the point in the dent and spin the lathe by hand to make a circle. I get an exact mortice or tenon that way. Can I ask where you got your snazzy parting tool from? Looks the dogs biscuits!
+Graham Light
Hi Graham and thank you. You're method sounds good too mate. The parting tool is a Carter & Sons in a Simon Hope handle.
Speak soon
Cheers
Mike
This video was really helpfull!! Thanks
I am really happy to hear that you found some use in the video Mark.
Thanks for watching, and your support.
Cheers
Mike
Thanks Mike. I only need to find out how to glue the bowl on the center of the glue block. I don't get it in balance, so I have to do the bowl again after gluing it....
another fanaistic video mike very informative just one question where did you get the parting tool with the aliminium handle looks very nice
Thank you Phill. The parting tool is a Carter & Sons blade, in a Simon Hope handle.
Take care
Mike
EXCELLENT METHOD. FROM BRAZIL.
+SEVERINO SILVA
Thank you Severino.
Cheers Mike
Sr Mike Waldt,parabens por esses três videos nos quais me tiraram muitas dúvidas com respeito a usinar peças em madeira sem o uso do chuck,pois meu torno não comporta o uso do mesmo .
Com certeza foram de grande valia .
Cezar Golowniczy- São Leopoldo RS Brasil
Obrigado Cezar, fico feliz em saber que você gostou da série.

Mike
That little gizmo looks damn handy
Hi Joseph, it is, I assure you :)
Take care
Mike
Thanks that was very helpful .. how could you do this with wet wood
Glad you enjoyed it Darryl.
With wet wood you would "rough turn" it with an even wall thickness of around an inch, depending on the diameter of the bowl", and then wrap in shavings and brown bag, check each week and move the contents around. Then after about 3/6 months finish turn it. The time to dry depends on how wet the wood is initially, and temperature/humidity etc. of the storage place.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Mike
Thanks Mike :)
Thank YOU, for watching Adam.
Take care
Mike
What kind of wood do you use for the glue block? Does it have to be a hardwood? Plywood?
I've used various types and mostly use a softwood in side grain orientation as the wider grain allows for glue penetration and a good bond, the most important thing is that both surfaces are dry.
THANK YOU SIR🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure, thanks for watching
Cheers
Mike
Hello Mike, Remember the 'Delia Smith effect' on Christmas's past, when the store shelves emptied of certain items appearing in that week's show? I wonder what effect you are having on the hot melt glue stocks? . . . Following your earlier issues, I have just ordered my first lathe, an at1628vs, with a spare set of a drive belt and bearings. Looking at your latest though, maybe I could have saved on the jaws and Chuck's. Good show any way. Encore! Regards, Glenn. :-)
Lol Glenn, enjoy your new "toy", I'm sure you'll love using it.
Thanks for watching
Cheers
Mike
glad i found this video so i have an alternative till i can afford to purchase my nova chuck
Hi Andrew, happy to hear that you found it of use mate.
Cheers
Mike
Nice video ;-)
Thank you
Cheers

Nice job, Mike. I am going to ask Santa Clause for one of those "HOT" glue guns. Thanks!
Thank you Alan, you won't regret it, I promise you.

awesome video yet again! i was just wondering have you ever used a paper glue joint for turning a bowl? before i got my chuck thats all i used for bowls very easy and quick.
thanks
jon
Thanks Jon, no I haven't as I've always used hot glue, but thanks for the tip.
Cheers
Mike
Amazing work from Paul, he has captured the essence of your ugliness perfectly. Not that I can crow, if you had a picture of me up there people would run screaming from the monitor. Great video as always.
LMAO, how true that statement is John, and on a serious note...thank you :)
Take care
