If you're doing one offs just take stock around the thickness of the drumsticks you want (3/4" is probably best) and cut out a square block the length you want (~14-16"). Then you can turn it round and shape. If you're making a bunch you could turn the square blanks into octagon with 45 degree bevels on all long edges.
Awesome! Have they held up? A quick little hit with a blow torch and rub the ashed part in with a wet rag before beeswaxing it gives it a sweet flavor Finnish Not sure if it affects the hardness of it at all but it looks not so ordinary Great bideo !
I end up slowly turning them until they nearly fall off then use a hand saw. For bigger turns like bowls or plates ill part off with a handbag after I turn a Grove for the saw to fit into. Hope this helps, good luck!
Tbh I mostly used carbide because I haven't sharpened my chisels in forever. But the Skew chisel would have made the turn alot easier. It will let you direct more force to the back and front where the piece is supported instead of to the side where the piece has to flex or break!
Good job 🎉🤗🫡
The drum sticks you made from wood are so cool and nice Great job

What's the quickest way to make them?

Have you ever tried with a duplicator accessory? I think it could be easier once you get the one.Regards
Thanks, I never have
That was awesome!! Thanks man
Glad to help out!

Great bideo !
Thanks man, and thank you for the tip!
I’m new to turning, how did you remove the excess pieces at the front and back of the drumstick? Did you just cut them off with a chop saw?

@@MadeByMillennial ah gotcha! That makes sense. Thanks for getting back to me. Were you primarily using a skew chisel in the video?

@@MadeByMillennial nice, that’s good to know - appreciate it dude!
I will try to do it with Stodoys plans.
Good luck
