Am I the only one who almost passed out when Mike was carving the spire? I held my breath for SOOO LONG!! Great Job Mike!! I can't seem to turn a piece down much past 1/4" (6 or so mm). Always amazed by folks who can make a toothpick.
Thanks for the heart-start! Enjoy your work very much sir.
Rick Wilke Lol.....thanks Rick, I appreciate your kind words, and support my friend.

Beautiful box Mike and great instructions as usual. That Ash looks stunning with the wood grain patters you handled the whole piece masterfully.

I'm very much impressed with you using such big tools to do such small work finial work. Thanks for the finial chisel idea, I need to make one of these. I don't know about that round skew quite yet though.
I need to get some time in making finials like that. Your sure make it look easy
Great job mike. Yuval and I chat a lot and I consider him a good friend and he is a great turner.

Beautiful box Mike, the finial is awesome. I had never turned ash before until recently, I made an ash bowl in a class I had the pleasure of taking from Jimmy Clewes. He happens to live here in Las Vegas and was offering classes to members of my local woodworking club. I really had no idea what to expect from Ash but it turned out to have some beautiful grain and figuring in it. Keep the awesome videos coming! I always love to see what you make next.
Braxton Wirthlin Thanks Braxton, you are one lucky guy to have seen Jimmy Clewes, he is an immensely talented turner and artist, and has a natural ability to teach as well.
Take care
Mike
Beautiful piece of turning Mike and the piece of ash is beautifully figured. I think your skew work and that finial turning gouge look very nice indeed. Thanks for a great video Mike!!!
Erik Anderson Thank you very much Erik, coming from a man with your expertise and tool control, I am well chuffed.
Take care
Mike
Mike Waldt Aw shucks! You are too kind sir!
Shalom Mike ,I have seen a few of your vidio"s.Very well explained, I have been turning
for 30 odd years, but on a metal lathe.takes 2 to 3 days each box. Now iv'e retired
i'll buy a real wood lathe and put your tips into my work . Have a good day and thankyou.
Shalom to you as well Jimmy, and thank you for your kind words, I'm glad you have found some use from my videos. Enjoy this wonderful craft.
Take care
Mike

Outstanding, Mike!!!! I am amazed over your ability to turn such delicate pieces. Maybe I will get to that point someday and be able to make small pieces.
Thank you very much I appreciate that.

I was alerted on Facebook, of all places, about your shout out Mike, and here I was thinking the sudden burst of new subscribers was due to my last video... :) What an amazing honor, coming from pretty much the first wood turner I've subscribed to when I decided to give the craft a try. And a second honor of being included in the same sentence with Al, a person I have much appreciation and respect for. So for all that, thanks.
I love the detail of the finial, you make it seem like an easy task.. that wobble in the end when you were finishing was looking edgy, made me think of these hollow tube with strings type of steady rest, I should make one of those too... the way you used your live tail stock with the live center without the pin as press for the finial was cool, I didn't understand what you were doing with that scotch bright pad until you reeled back the stock, I'll need to remember that one. Thanks for a great video!!
yuval lahav Thanks Yuval for your kind words and support my friend. Believe me when I say your talents are a joy to watch, and the "shout out" was well deserved.
Take care
Mike

Its been hard finding time for hobbies wile supporting a family of 4 (soon to be 5) but I do miss woodturning and the camaraderie of the TH-cam community. I hope to return soon.

That is a lovely bit of turning. If you get a chance I'd love to see more on how you grind your curved skew.
Regards,
Frank
Frank B Thanks Frank, the process is quite easy to perform, and doesn't take too long either. there are some great videos already on YT about it.....but I might just add my way as well.
Take care

Lee Waterman Thanks Lee, glad you enjoyed it.
Take care
Mike
I can't believe I missed this one! I love the thin lid. Very nice
I haven't done many finials, but lately I've been trying my hand at it and I'm finding it quite a lot of fun. Its a challenge to get a nice thin tip.
Cheers!
+Jerry Paul Thanks for watching Jerry, I tend to have a finial binge, and make a load and keep them for future projects....well that's the theory any way :)
Take care
Mike
Thanks Jerry......carry on with the finials regardless say I ;)
Cheers
Mike
Amazing work! I've been watching all your turning videos and you've inspired me to give it a go here in the near future! Thanks and keep up the good work!
+Justin G.
Hi Justin, and thank you, let me know how you like it when you do finally get started.

Terry Hanson Agreed! He is spectacular with it. I tried to emulate it last night and almost had an unguided missile in my garage.
Rick Wilke Lol Rick, keep at it, and it will come mate, practice, practice, and a bit more practice ;)
Cheers
Mike
Simply beautifull my friend, good job.
Take care
Miguel Sanchez Thanks Miguel.

A master class once again Mike you make it look so easy and always a beautiful end result. it's a thumbs up from me my friend.
All the best

***** Thanks Tony, your constant support is always much appreciated mate.
Take care
Mike
Mike, what a bloody beauty, I love the thin lid, well done on mot breaking it and your finial shows some character and you fine turning technique, I hope I can do half as well when I have a go at it. Keep them coming!!!
Stephen McFadyen Thank you Stephen, I really appreciate your supportive comments.
Take care
Mike
Good to see the master at his craft! I"m sure I would have lost that one when you hit the knot! Something that I like about it is that when you have the lid on... it looks like a solid piece. Just so natural and all! ;>) I like also that you only use two tools! Wicked looking skew! And well used at that! ... (Oh yeah and the other two tools too!)
Thanks for Sharing
Larry
The Tiny Trailer Workshop So Larry, who's video were you watching then? ;)
Thank you mate, I appreciate it. I never was much good at maths.....lol. Trust you to make a point of my inadequacies ( of which there are many I hasten to add)
Thanks for your welcomed comments.....AND dry humour (humor)!
Take care my friend
Mike
Here in Canada we keep a "U" in humour!... Maybe that's the Italian version?
In any case I think it was your video I was watching... and I hope life makes it si you can get back in front of the camera more often!
As always
Larry
The Tiny Trailer Workshop Lol...I stand corrected mate.
Cheers
Mike
très beau travail , very beautifull work ( France)

Beautiful video, Mike.
The box looks great and has a good texture.
The idea with the toothbrush is not bad, because it comes in one well in narrow grooves. :-)
Günter Schöne Thank you Gunter.....just don't use the brush on your teeth afterwards ;)
Take care
Mike
Lovely box and finial Mike, love it! Thanks for the nice video mate!

Hope all is OK up North with you ;)

Beautiful Finial work Mike,
Finials are something I haven't become very adept at making but they are definitely on my short list of turned items to improve at. I truly enjoyed watching the entire process and the close up camera angle was superb.
That was one thin lid but I think being so delicate makes the piece all that much nicer.
Regards,
Bob
RJBWoodTurner Thank you very much Bob, I really appreciate it. Finials are great fun, and rewarding, but do take some practice. Cindy Drozda is the girl to watch and learn from, of that there is no doubt. In my book she is the high priestess of fine finials :)
Take care
Mike
Eine sehr schöne kleine Box mit einer wirklich sehr weinen Spitze hast du da gedrechselt Mike!!! Gute Arbeit!

Ni Mike, Good to see you back in the shop buddy. Great looking box as always! Simple yet elegant and for me, those are key to beauty. Love the last jam chuck where the finial went inside the live center. Pure genius.... :-) All the best, Charlie
Charlie Zellner Thanks Charlie, your kind words, and encouraging support are much appreciated.
Take care
Mike
Hi Mike, great finished item. Your videos are very informative. Personally I prefer to see the turning at real speed. Keep up the good work
Steve
woodturner21 Thank you, the problem with real speed is that the video would be 3+ hours long! So, editing has to be brought to bare ;) Thanks for watching and commenting.
Take care
Mike
Nice work Mike :)
So nice !

Someone has been practicing!! ;)
Neat little box

It turned out really well Mike. I need to practice my skew a bit more to be able to use it like you.
I noticed that there is some text missing in the description. No link to the 3rd guy channel.
Take care and keep turning
***** Thanks Karo, appreciate it mate. Thanks for the heads up on the "missing link", it is now there :)
Take care
Mike
Beautiful turning Mike and I love the skew.
I'm going to follow up your "shout outs" as I did with Albert Furtado. He's the most complete turner insofar as he also does a bit of blacksmithing by making his own turning tools.
The last competition at my turning club was for a segmented piece which I hasten to add I didn't have the nerve to enter. The judge was the demonstrator for the day and all of the entries were amazing but some lost points with him because of insufficient attention to the bases of their pieces.
I mention this only because it may be of help to beginners who may wonder why you added some detail your box base.
Best wishes,
Alan.
Alan Simpson Thanks Alan, always a great pleasure to hear from you mate. I'm also very happy to hear that you think these guys are very talented, they have so much to inspire us.
Never let it be said that I ever overlook a well finished bottom!
Take care
Mike
Nice work Mike. Marc

Christopher Fisher Thanks Chris, hopefully one day I'll get there mate!

Very nice, Mike. Very delicate finial; I was glad to see that it was "replaceable".
It appears that the ash blank was about 50 mm square?
Bill Wells Thanks Bill, the blank was about 3" or 75mm square, give or take ;)
Cheers
Mike
Hello Mike! Wonderful video. I love your stuff. Please tell us who was the guitarist as well. Thanks!
jAMES hERRELL Thanks James, I did have it in the description, but YT gremlins left it out....it's Mike Berke, and the link is now there.
