- Easy beginner projects from branches. This new woodturning video is how to turn a vase on a wood lathe. Wood vase turning is one of my favorite projects to do on a wood lathe. These are also considered bud vases or twig pots. This is a DIY lathe project that is pretty easy for wood turning beginners to show you how to turn a vase.
This is great for wood turning basics for beginners to show basic woodturning techniques. This is pretty basic wood vase design but also I think it has an elegant look to it.
When I finished the basic vase shape I sanded it from 80 grit to 500 grit. I used friction polish for the finish then beeswax over the top.
I hope you enjoy/ enjoyed this wood turning video. Please like share and subscribe.
Thanks for watching!

What I like about real time is I can see how you apply your tools. Your work is what it always is; outstanding, and fun to watch.
Thank you Ed!
I appreciate your kind words!
I do speed up the video some. I've geared my channel toward beginners and those still new to woodturning. My goal is to try and show what I'm doing with the tools to help people still learning and try to keep it entertaining as well.
Thanks for watching!
I appreciate it.
6 minutes to turn in real time is really sweet. Nice job.
Thanks for the feedback! I tried to cut out all the boring stuff. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for watching!
...that turned out great...and thanks again for showing something cool can be made from ordinary branches...👍
For a 6 minute video, real time works for me...and you do a great job with your videos. When others stretch out "turning to round" or sanding to 5-10 minutes, it gets a little hard to take...
Keep up the good work, and I'll keep watchin'...

Thank you Matt! I appreciate the feedback. I try to cut out all the down time that makes it boring.
Appreciate you watching!
I'm new to woodturning so I'm trying to learn the basics I'm disabled so i have to sit down and everything is different love you're work and real time help 👍🏻
I'm left handed and things were different for me to. I just did it in a way that works for me.
Enjoy the journey. It's a lot of fun.
Real time for me. I can always fast forward or set playback faster on my end. Appreciate your turnings!!
Thank you!
I appreciate you watching!
I appreciate the real time. Allows me to see little details that get lost in high speed. Good job, I like the piece!
Thanks Tim! Real time without being boring. That's what I'm shooting for.
Appreciate your input.
Thanks for watching!
Showing in Real Time is always best.
It's easier to see what's going on
New to turing..I like real time. Watching angle of tool..and love love no music!!
Thank you for watching!
I try to get the best angles so you can see what's going on.
I like real time to pick up a few tips. The rpm’s would also be useful.
Ya it's nice to see what's going on. I run about 1200 rpms most of the time.
its amazing what beauty if hidden under the bark that was a Stunning piece
Thank you Colin!
That's what I love about this thing we do.
I appreciate you watching!
I like real time turning.
Thank you Dennis!
This video didn't do as well as I had hoped. Doesn't appear very many like the real time. We live in a fast paced world. I guess they like the videos that way too.
Appreciate you watching!
I like real-time. It makes it easier for me to see what you're doing.

Thank you Huw!
Good afternoon
I’m very, very much the beginner sooo, please bare with me.
When parting off you went from your parting tool to your skew chisel saying about it saving reversing.
I’ve turned so little, using carbide and a homemade parting off tool; I’m afraid that I didn’t understand what you were saying about reverse turning & a little worried that I maybe doing thing wrong - parting off until, it comes off 🤣
Hope that makes sense - Peter
That's a good question Peter.
When you part something off with a parting tool it usually leaves a rough surface on the bottom. Reverse turning is flipping the project around and then you turn the bottom of the project to smooth it. When I part off with the skew it leaves a smooth surface so I don't have to do that.
A word of advice, I don't recommend using the skew for this until you have lots of experience with the skew. It can be very dangerous if you don't know the technique.
Thanks for watching!
Perfect answer thank you, perfectly understand just not heard of it before referred to as ‘reverse turning’, thank you for clearing that up.
I’ve really only done recess (mortise I think), just a couple of tenons.
Looked recently at reverse turning & was just, just about to give it a go.
Really enjoying watching your turning.
Thank you for such a prompt reply. :-))
@@peterhicks your welcome. Have fun on your journey!
Great video. I enjoy all of your turnings. They seem to cut out most of the BS that all the others want to show.
Thanks for your honesty. Real time is great.
Maybe you can add some commentary. Thanks again, Jon.
Thank you Jonathan! I appreciate the feedback! I started using some text. Some commentary is a possibility.
Thank for watching!
I appreciate it!
Real time is good, gives me idea how long it really takes for the project. What's very valuable to me is to know what sanding grits used & what finish is used.
By the way, what is B.L.O.?
Thanks for sharing, I'm a better turner because of your teaching by sharing. God bless you
Thank you Sam!
I love hearing that my videos are helping. That's why I do it.
B.L.O is boiled linseed oil.
When it comes to sanding 95% of the time I start with 80 grit. Now this is the most important part of the sanding process. The 80 grit will remove the tool marks and smooth out the surface. You don't want to move on from that until you have removed all the blemishes from the surface. The rest of the grits smooth the surface more to get a nice finish on the project. I do 80, 120, 180, 220, 320, and 500.
Thank you for watching! God bless!
Nice quick little project. I like to make bud vases for practice. Any clue as to what type of wood that was?
Ya bud vases are great for practice and to build confidence.
This wood is pacific madrone.
I really like the color and wood grain.
I'm hoping to find more of it.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice, do check moisture?
Thank you Andy! I do have a moisture meter but I don't use it very often.
Appreciate you watching!
Took me 6 minutes to figure out what you made. The vid length is fine , the text adds value
Love real time, as long as it’s less than 10 minutes!
Great video!
Thank you for the feedback on the video! I hope you enjoyed the project.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Clarence! I will keep that in mind. Appreciate the feedback!
Thanks for watching!
Was this wood green or did you let it dry out?
I found it on the ground. It was dry when I got it. I'm guessing it's been down at least a couple years
