Very happy that I found your Chanel, I love working with wood, I’m looking forward to getting a lot of ideas from you. Thank you. By the way I’m also Nick. Take care and hope you have a great weekend.
I’m binge watching your channel and I’m seriously very impressed by your skills and the way you present different things to us and not just the cookie cutter videos of which there is hundreds of channels of different people doing the same things…. Much respect had to comment again im just very impressed and interested in what you make
It's impressive how you can avoid inevitable mistakes when you working on wood lathe without samples? It's a bit painful to watch step by step slow approaching to the desirable shape of the barrel of workpiece. But you managed to do it perfectly! And why don't you use protection gloves? Some people can learn bad habits with sad consequences... Nonetheless it's quiet obvious you've come through many own mistakes and got that high level of mastery due to your love to the woodworking and commitment to gain perfection. Huge respect to you!
Your pins are lovely! I have found short rolling pins (no end handles, both with and without a taper to the ends) that i made from "scraps" to be very useful in our kitchen.
Each time I watch such woodworking videos and the Hi-Tech generation tools I regret why I didn't go for such a skilling subject back in high school. I opted Fine Art for Woodwork since you had you select one.
I took woodshop and i love being a woodworker. I can make almost anything out of wood, and its thanks to my great woodshop teachers, its not just a skill they passed down, it's peace and tranquility, and a sense of accomplishment on the daily. You can always learn, its never too late.
I hope you are selling these for "decorative purposes only", because the finish and the wax you are using are not food safe at all. The Minwax "Tung Oil Finish" contains no Tung oil, it is made of BLO, plastic resins, and a Cobalt-based drying agent. Cobalt is a toxic heavy metal. If you read the MSDS sheet for the Minwax Paste Wax you use, you will see that it's effects towards organ toxicity range from 3 to 1, on a scale from 1-4, with 1 being the MOST TOXIC! Please research and adjust the products you use for food-contact items.
The resins in most commercial tung oil finishes are triglycerides, which form a stable chemical matrix that is considered "food-contact safe." The nanoscopic amounts that may separate from the rolling pin, even in heavy use, are too small to be toxic. Most commercial wooden rolling pins and other wood kitchen utensils are often finished with aliphatic resins, another non-aromatic carbon chain like triglycerides, and these too stand up to USFDA standards. What seems to make them safe is that these reactive finishes are inert when cured, rendering them chemically invisible to most biologic processes. This has been addressed by a few studies but more work needs be done -- this was the consensus when I wrote a book on finishing some years ago. As for the wax, we make our own from paraffin, beeswax, and carnauba, all of which are non-toxic. I really should get rid of the twenty-year-old can that we mix it in, or wrap it in tape -- it's free advertising for Minwax. And thank you for having the best interests (and health) of our viewers at heart. A later addendum: I added a video on my channel that shows how to mix you own food safe wax at th-cam.com/video/6DdNMrRn_jk/w-d-xo.html&t
@@WorkshopCompanion Thanks for the reply. I now have no doubt that you have taken the necessary considerations when choosing which finishes to use. Yeah, that old can of paste wax can definitely throw off the viewer's perception of what to use on this type of a product.
Does anybody know why he goes to such great lengths to keep the finishing products a secret? All I wanted to know was how to finish a rolling pin, the rest I can do.
Hey Nick! Glad to see you are using ShopSmith tools still. I was hoping you would be using a 520 system instead of a "real" tablesaw LOL, but loved the SS Proplaner and bandsaw. As usual, nice work. Glad to see you are still sharing your mastery!
It’s rare to find such great content on you tube. You really know your craft and how to teach and your videos are excellently done showing all the important information so that we can copy your work without any fluff or wasted time. What a gem of a channel this is!
I wish to heck that I could have been your granddaughter, and I would have got to sit in your workshop every day and learn everything you had to teach! Me and your dog would both sit and look up at you with big admiring eyes thinking you're just a real-life magician making amazing stuff!
Both the finish and the wax are "food-contact safe," once the finish is cured. We make our own wax from paraffin, beeswax, and carnauba -- all non-toxic. Check out our video on making wax here: th-cam.com/video/6DdNMrRn_jk/w-d-xo.html .
Love it! Makes me Want to go out and purchase a lathe. Question though, I’m assuming that was paste wax that you put on the roller towards the end. Is that a food safe finish? I swear I’m not trying to call you out. Just genuinely curious
Absolutely fascinating to watch! What an amazing talent you have! It brought me right back to my childhood, sitting in the shed watching my Dad make things. Do you sell them on Etsy or any other site? I'm in the UK.
Thats bloody mint! I reckon that will be my mums birthday gift this year with Jarrah, Sheoak and Tassie Oak👌 Just need to borrow my mates lathe for a day...
FNG HERE! This is the best old school woodworking channel! Wow, how did I miss this? O'l Nick and I have have scheduled many dates this month. Fantastic!
That looks really nice. However, as I have done my fair share of rolling dough, the unevenness of the lines would deive me up a wall after I went batty!
I like the video, but the drums drove me crazy. Felt like I was captured by a tribe of cannibals and they were going to eat me. Of course that wouldn't really happen. After my divorce I'm way too bitter.
This was the very first timelapse video I made and the drums were the only music I had with no copyright worries. I used the same track 3 times in this video😅 but since then we ve gotten access to much more music so our other videos are a little better. If this video didnt have a million views Id take it down and change it. - Travis
Just found your channel. Really nice work. I have a bunch of projects I'm currently working on ( canoe paddle). But as I finish I will give the rolling pin a shot. Love to use up scrap wood! Also very impressed that most of the work was done with a Shopsmith. Thanks
Thank you! If you're interested in the toxicity of waxes and the solvents used to make them, we discuss that in depth in in th-cam.com/video/6DdNMrRn_jk/w-d-xo.html . Also, see my discussion with Bryan Nash below.
I really enjoy your videos and envy your expertise! In fact, I bought a lathe and have been practicing with it. It's a lot of fun. Could you please tell me if that was oil you wet sanded with and what should I use for a final finish? Thank You Again
Sorry to say we don't sell them. I've never been part of what many crafts people call the "smalls" market. We do "bigs" -- really big bigs. Specifically, we build pioneer aircraft and flight simulators for museums worldwide. You can see some of our work at wright-brothers.org/ . We do videos because I have an addiction to teaching. In fact many of the aircraft we make are teaching tools to interest young people in science and engineering -- you can see one of our student-built gliders flying at th-cam.com/video/RUbVTxDGArw/w-d-xo.html . So...if you would like to buy a 1903 Wright Flyer, you have come to the right person. If you would like a rolling pin, you have come to the right person to teach you how to make one.
@@WorkshopCompanion Thank you. I'll stick with my wine bottle. You use scrap wood and that appeals to me. I'm sure the wine bottle is not recycled glass. That's too progressive.
Titebond II. It's and aliphatic r(yellow) resin glue with a reasonably long open clamp time -- ten to fifteen minutes, usually. Twenty if you hold your mouth just right.
I can’t tell if she’s a gorgeous border collie or Aussie?! In another video I see how lean she is so that leads me to BC but I have a mini Aussie and their faces are identical but mine doesn’t have the tail. You can barely see her in my pic but they both have the stunning long nose and inquisitive eyes
Liberty, the black-and-white dog in some of our videos, was a border collie. She is no longer with us. Bella, the red-and-white smooth-coat whirlwind that runs our shop these days, is either a kelpie or a McNab sheperd, both of which are close cousins to border collies -- they all come from the same Scotch collie stock, as does your mini-aussie.
I have made several rolling pins in the past. I found any finish to prohibit the flour from sticking to the pin and the dough would stick to it. Not the case with this??
I use a food-contact-safe tung oil finish for most of my kitchen items. I have never had much of a problem with dough sticking, provided I keep the dough lightly floured. However, "dough" comes in an infinite variety of recipes, all with their own degree of stickiness. Bread doughs that include oil, for example, are decided less sticky than traditional artisan doughs that have none. When having to roll out especially sticky dough, I simply cover the dough with waxed paper. I doubt there is a finish available that would prevent a rolling pin from sticking to everything.
Bravo! We believe we would have learned more and liked the video a bit better if you had been speaking to us! Best of luck! The music reminded me of Dave Brubeck.
You're kind. But I've got to give credit where credit is due. It was the late Rudy O'solnik that showed me how to turn these almost 40 years ago -- we featured the pins in one of my early books. Rudy was the head of the School of Woodworking Arts at Berea University in Kentucky, a world-class turner, and an effective and beloved teacher.
Most aliphatic (yellow) and polyvinyl (white) wood glues are considered non-toxic and food-contact safe after they are cured. Some aliphatic glues under constant exposure to water with break down into toxic substances, but this is an extreme case. As for finishing, our project plans include a a short discussion on non-toxic finishes and several recommendations: workshopcompanionstore.com/products/scrapwood-rolling-pin
@@WorkshopCompanion I'm not a baker and neither is my wife but if I were to ever see one of these in a store made by you, I would purchase it just for the wow factor of having it. God bless you and keep up the beautiful work.
have you ever tried finnishing on the lathe by sanding down to 220 sand paper and then use french polish , put laquior and boiled linseed oil and polish your wood to look like a glass finish on the wood..
I wouldn't want a film finish on a rolling pin. While I wouldn't put a film finish on a rolling pin, traditional French polish is shellac. The lacquer VOCs are why I shy away from that. I like to build my film finish with shellac. And then a final coat of two with something more durable when needed (as in a rolling pin). Water based poly, perhaps. Funny thing. You can apply the shellac right on the spinning piece on the lathe, and the heat from friction will dry the shellac solvent (alcohol) quickly. You can build up the shellac in minutes.
@@gsmscrazycanuck9814 I rarely sell what the crafts market calls "smalls," although we have recently opened up an Etsy store to sell some of the overflow from our vids.

Using the 12 inch sanding disk was brilliant. And those wedge shaped cut offs can be glued up for random rolling pins also. Great video.
We tried gluing up the waste wedges and turning another pin; didn't turn out as well as we hoped. No clear or attractive geometric pattern emerged.
