- Woodturning - Domed Lattice Lidded Box.
This is a project inspired by the book Woodturning Wizardry by Professional turner David Springett. The projects in the book vary from Lattice work to captive items within spheres and the projects also vary greatly in degree of difficulty. Mr Springett encourages turners to have a go at these projects even though some require a fair deal of preparation work by making various chucks and tools. This is my attempt at perhaps one of the simpler projects even though it needs several chucks and one homemade tool.
The book is available from several places including Amazon, for anyone who fancies a challenge. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Dude. That is seriously inventive. Thanks for showing how you made those chucks!
Thanks for your comment.
С Новым годом! Мира! Счастья! Здоровья! Успехов! Заработков! Удачи!
SUPER!!!
Thanks for the comment
Sometime while viewing your video my wife came into the room and asked me if I was alright. She said my mouth was wide open and I had a dumbfounded look on my face. I said .. "Hon, I only have a vague idea of what this guy is turning but I'm fascinated by all his re-chucking and multiple turning axis's"! Unfortunately we live in a highly technological and mechanized, (CNC ) world, where only another "Turner" will appreciate the difficulty and skill required to make this box. Turners usually turn items for sale or gifts. So, from this turner's standpoint I would attempt this for personal satisfaction only. This is because the return for such work can't be realized in dollars or appreciation for the skill required.
Thank you for sharing your very difficult work.

Thanks a lot for your comments and I hope you have a go yourself. As I say in the description, this is not my idea or design and the book this is taken from is available online. I would have found this much more difficult (if not impossible) without the templates and the instructions provided in the book.
haha crazy cool i just received my copy of woodturning wizardry today in the mail awesome video thanks
Thank you for the comment. Hope you give one of the book projects a try.
David did the demo at our club a few years ago , got this book (signed) but didn't have the b###s to make it , now seeing your version might be the catalyst for me to have a go ,,.Thank you,,. Regards Alf
Hi Alf,
Good to know my videos give someone a bit of inspiration. Hope you have a go yourself and good luck with it. Thanks for the comment.
Very well done, lot of planning and thought in that
Thank you. Your comments are appreciated.
Excellent! Thanks for the new idea. Love it!
Dan Alhona,

Edwin Leach,
Glad you like it. Thanks for the comment.
Gorgeous!
Thank you!
What a lot of work, but completely worth ti! Outstanding!
Stuart Scott,
All the work is all part of the challenge and yes it is worth it. (Most of the time). I didn't show them as the video would be too long, but there were a couple of other fails before I got it right. One was too thin and another did not follow the template accurately enough but I got there eventually. Thank you for your kind comments.
Newly subscribed! Very cool very well presented and very interesting! Thanks. I will have to try this. Found the book and it’s on its way. Book is not necessary for this project as your video was very clear. Want to see other projects in the book. In fact got one for my son. Thanks again for the video. Was very enjoyable! Great way to start my day with a cup of coffee and interesting wood turning magic
Glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you have a go yourself. Other projects in the book may be more challenging and several need specialist tools. Thanks for the comment.
Amazing work.
Thanks a lot!
Very nice ! Adding this project to my to-do list.
Go for it! Good luck when you give it a try.
Brilliant, inspiring
Thanks for the comment
Well done sir! This is officially the coolest woodturning piece I've seen yet. I can't wrap my brain around the angles involved. Magic!
Woodturning By ME,
Glad you liked the project. The angles are defined by the templates shown in the book which you need to produce first and then match these to the chucks and the lid. The degree of cut to the angled chuck is also defined by a specific size and radius of the lid. I too have no idea how the author came up with these angles so I gave up trying. You may have noticed that on the final lid, I had to apply layers of tape to the angled chuck to correct the angle of cut on the outer rings, which shows how accurate all this needs to be. Thanks for the comment.
A lovely piece of ornamental turning, so well done, many congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Outstanding!!!!!! I just learned a new way to turn wood! Thank you. I will need to give this a try.
Glasscutr, Glad it was helpful! Good luck giving it a try.
Fantastic project. I really enjoyed watching you make something new and unique.
Julian Lech,
Thank you for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it.
Looks great very nice project 👍
Mountain View Turning,
Thank you. Your comments are appreciated.
Peter this is a magnificent little box so very delicate.
Kobie Kaasjager,
Thank you. I appreciate your comment.
Incredible work on the lid. Great job. Turned out really nice.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment.
Beautiful. I love the end result and really am proud of you for the degree of patience you must have had to have to get through that process lol. I look forward to seeing more of your work,
Daemolitia, Thank you so much!
Wow🤗 Beautiful.
Thanks a lot 😊
@@PeterWoodbineWoodturning Cheers 🤗
Nicely done Peter, a great project, and really good video production
Many thanks John. Glad you enjoyed it.
You inspire me!

Thank you - I appreciate your kind comment.
Great work Pete, hope you're well.
Hi Simon,
Cheers buddy. Hope you and yours are well too. Assume you are "working from home" if at all. I'm getting a bit stir crazy staying in the same place all the time especially as I'm just about to run out of ciggies. Nightmare! Thanks for the comment.
Great work. Most satisfying to watch the production of this amazing piece.
I got the book for Christmas, inspiring. Your video is a great inspiration to get going on something like this
Thanks for the comment. I hope my video does inspire you to have a go yourself.
Wow! Very well done. Thanks for sharing the details behind such an amazing project. Now I'm off to buy Mr. Springett's book.
Thanks for the comment. Good luck with any of the projects you try from the book.
Enjoyed your project, looks good! I have David’s book also and do plan on trying a couple of his projects. Hope to see more from you
Glad you enjoyed the project. Not too sure if I will be doing any more anytime soon as they appear to get progressively more difficult and require more home made tools. Maybe one day. Hope you have good luck trying out any of the book projects. Thanks for the comment.
Great piece. A project I will have to try. It looks like the type of wood is a big factor. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Curtis,
Glad you liked the project. The book advises to use "good clean hardwood" whatever that means. Mine was Mahogany I believe. Hope you have a go at it yourself. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks for the video. Just bought the book and looking forward to giving it a go, it really helps to see how someone else tackled it.
Hi Steven,
Glad to hear my video may have helped. Good luck having a go at the projects in the book. Thanks for the comment.
Proves practice makes perfect!
Yes it does but it would be better first time.😀. Thank you for your comment.
"Woodturning Wizardry" havent seen that book for years! Almost as far back as woodturning with Gordon Stokes. Nice job 👍👍
gbwildlife uk,
Apparently the book was first published in 1993 and the revised edition in 2005, which was then reprinted in 2010. So the book is quite up to date in it's layout and presentation. Quite amazing how this guy was doing these advanced projects all those years ago. Thanks for your comments.
Oh wow this is really cool, glad you persisted and got it done ,subbed too man
Glad you liked the project. Thanks for the comment and the sub.👍
Wow....wish l had just 5% of your skill....looks great.
Thank you. Glad you liked the project.
Holy cow! A first time shot! Video a great learning tool if you have experience.
Glad you enjoyed the project. Thanks for the comment.
Você é um gênio.
Parabéns.
Obrigado pelo comentário
I bought the book one month ago, thank you for your video, you did very very well,👍👍👍
Thank you for your comment. I hope you enjoy the book and have a go at the projects.
yes, I will try,🙂🙂
Gorgeous! Just designing the chuck to achieve the design was genius. Well done.
Glad you like it! Unfortunately it's not my design. I just followed the instructions in the book but thanks for the comment.
Ювелирная работа большого мастера и геометра!!!!!
Ivan Bukh,
Thank you for your comment.
Nicely done Peter, beautiful piece of woodturning. Considering your video is just under 20 minutes, you editing is exempliary for the work you carried out in finishing this project. What an adventure, excellent, good luck with the rest of the book. I'm still collecting wood and equipment to have a go on a few of the projects. What a marvelous insight to artistic turning 'Woodturning Wizardry' is too.
If any woodturner has an inkling to step out of their comfort zone and test their drive - get the book and 'go for it'. Hat's off to David Springett too.
Regards and best wishes Peter, until your next adventure, take care.
Tony.
Hi Tony,
Glad that you enjoyed the project and the video. Not too sure if I will be doing anymore from the book as I think they get progressively more difficult and need more homemade tools. I probably did one of the easier ones so we will have to see if I get more inspiration to try another one. Good luck if you have a go at any of the projects. I agree that Mr Springett is certainly an exceptionally talented guy. Thanks for the comments.
Awesome, thx a bunch
Thanks for the comment.
Maravilha de trabalho.
obrigado pelo seu comentário
Stunning. I might give it a go.Not sure I have the patience!
Give it a go. You don't have to do it all in one session. It took me several days on and off. Thanks for the comment.
Fantastic
Thank you so much.
Very impressive....
Hwchamcham Leishi,
Thank you. Glad you liked the project.
Bonjour bravo pour cette belle boîte
Pierre Thieland ,
Merci pour le commentaire.
Wawll. Stunning. Really well done but it's way past my ability but still really great to see being done
Thanks. Much appreciated.
Amazing
Thanks for the comment
I too have David’s book (which he signed for me when doing a club demonstration) and I have just completed the flatter, offset lattice projects and am now considering tackling this so it was fascinating to see your attempt in video - much easier than the book, brilliant though it is. I’ve also made many examples of the ‘Singapore Balls’ which are fun items that sell well at craft fairs but are a little too repetitive! If you haven’t already done one I would encourage you to have a go. 👍
Glad to hear that my video helped out. I'm currently trying to decide on which one to go for next so maybe I will have a go at the Singapore Balls. Thanks for the comment.
Эти токаря не перестают удивлять!))
Pro100-100ляр ооо,
Спасибо за ваш комментарий.
Wow, so refreshing to find a wood turner with confidence in his ability and his equipment, I'm a retired engineering centre lathe turner and I'm tired of watching woodturners whose first thought is to "put a tenon on it and get it into the chuck for safety" how are they going to develop as a craftsman with that mentality... sorry to go on, excellent job Sir, I've subbed you...Allen.
Noktamus Digamus,
Having watched a talented turner many times in an engineering workshop during my apprenticeship, (many moons ago) I can appreciate your passion. Thanks for the comment and the sub.
super idée , il a du falloir plusieurs essai pour trouver l'épaisseur idéal , bravo !
Merci pour le commentaire.
Great!!!! :)
Milen Jekov,
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the project.
Very nice Peter, you hung in there until you got it done.
Thanks Don. I appreciate you comment.
Have the book. As far as the angle is figured, it can be found by basic geometry. I think the comes out as abit more than the book recomends
I never was any good at geometry so I had to rely on the book. I think it's also reliant on you getting the shape of the dome perfectly formed, otherwise that can also change the angle. Thanks for the comment.
Wow
dunboozin ,
Thank you for your comment.
Peter, your video perfectly compliments David book and has been VERY helpful in my attempt at this box. The box I must say is a bit of a challange and measureing to a half millimeter a must. Just had to redo my templates since they were off just a tad. Having some of the same issues you did and the one where you mentioned you needed to go in deeper on the inside of the lid with the gooves. The thickness of the lid is about 4 mm. Could you tell me in your corrected lid how deep you actually went. Going in 2 mm from each side is not a lot of wiggle room. Was thinking maybe 2.5 - 3 mm on the underside, but was not sure and that's why I ask. Thanks
While its all a bit difficult to measure now, I think my lid is about 4.5mm thick and the underside grooves 2.5mm. I would say the underside definitely needs to be deeper than the top. Thanks for your interest and your comment. Glad the video helped. Always good to hear.
@@PeterWoodbineWoodturning Peter, have to thank you once more for your help. After 3 blown lids your suggestion of going deeper on the underlid lattice worked great. Cutting them a little deeper for added support did the job. Wish I could add an attachement, would love to show you my results. Everyone loves this box and it looks very elegant. Thanks
@rroe5718 I'm glad I could help.
Is the 35 degree for the last chuck based on the diameter of the domed part, or that angle works for different sizes? Is this all explained in the book, too, or they have put general guidelines in there? Great project, and interesting result. I have seen some nice modification on this topic, especially from Claude Lethiecq, and that guy took this to another dimension. Unfortunately, he is not with us anymore.
I think that the 35 degree is probably based on the diameter. The book includes 3 templates for the lid that you have to cut out and use to form the lid and to size the straight chuck. If you don't make these exact, the angle is off and the rings are not cut evenly. If you check out my video at the end of making the last lid, you will see that I added some blue tape to the chuck to correct the angle. Therefore to make any different diameter, I think it would be trial and error to achieve the correct angle. Whilst the book states that certain variations are possible, it gives no further guidance on how to achieve this. Thanks for your interest.
That is very beautiful what was the book that they was talking about in the comments I would like to know how to get one I am new to wood turning I like to get all the help I can get thank you
The book is Woodturning Wizardry by David Springett and you get get it on Amazon and other places online.
@@PeterWoodbineWoodturning thank you I am going to find it
What did you spray overtop of the already waxed lid?
Melamine Lacquer.
Well done, you’ve just inspired me to have a go. My fb page “Wood lives”
Thanks for the comment. I'll have a look at your page.
