Thank you Earl for your very comprehensive information on how to construct an Indian blanket feature ring. I have seen other videos on this subject but yours is the most explicit. You explained every detail effectively and left no room for error. I finally learned how to construct the Indian blanket feature ring.
Hi Earl. Watching the entire process of making a feature ring was very helpful. I've made three of your string clamps, what a terrific tool, thanks so much for the tip. Take care!
Great video Earl and a very nice result with your feature ring. I always learn something every time I watch one. I'm looking forward to seeing it in your completed turning.
Thanks for the demo/video. Really learn a lot in every video. I'm making a Beads of Courage box using your pattern for the squash pot. Think it will be great.
I'm gonna have to try this. But since I don't have access to different wood species, I guess maple, ash, and mesquite it is.. Thanks for the video and sharing your ideas and style.
Earl; A trick I use when gluing multiple small pieces together, Lay the glue bottle on it's side between applications. That will eliminate the waiting and shaking the glue down to the nozzle. Another: is instead of a pencil for marking and centering the segment blocks, use a marking knife or exacto knife. It is much more precise and easier to align than a pencil that might vary in width with use.
Hi Earl --- love your work and have been a subscriber for several months. Question please? What kind of saw blade do you use in your table saw, and how thick is it on the kerf? Thanks - look forward to all your videos! Regards Dennis Beamish Cambridge Ontario Canada
I am on a limited budget so my saw blade is a Harbor Freight 80 tooth carbide tip blade, believe it or not I get just as good and smooth cuts as with a blade that costs over $100. Its a 1/8" kerf a thin kerf might be better but with a limited budget I have to make do with what I have.
Earl, I just found your channel & I'm impressed. I do hav a couple questions. I'm pretty sure in an earlier video, you advised to make sure the center of the clamp was right at a joint. But in this video you placed the clamp center line in the middle of the segment & not at the joint. Please clarify. Also I noticed that you only kept the top clamp on until the ring clamp was tightened. (I really love your top clamp idea.) Do you feel that keeping the top clamp on longer has no significant value once the clamp is tightened ? Lastly, I echo a comment mentioned below. If you lay your glue bottle on it's side while glueing, the glue will make it out with less effort. Sorry this was so long. Thanks for the great video, Jim.
Putting the clamp on the joint keeps it from pushing a segment in too far, when the segments are very large it will not push a segment inand you can place it on the segment just watch too see if it is pushing it in and out of place Once the clamp is tight I remove the top clamp and never had a problem with the segments moving
Hi earl Beautiful feature ring I have had a practice go at one With mahogany&beech but had aproblem With them falling apart when cut to strips on the table saw I used tightbond 2 glue Is this a common problem or am I doing something wrong Love your vibeo's very informative All the very best John s /manchester england
That is a problem, the harder the wood and tighter the end grain the better glue joints will be, I have had some joints coming apart I just force them back together when reversing them and gluing the strips back .
I think I misread that the first time 30 deg is correct for the segment angles for a 12 seg ring , the angles I was talking about is for cutting the pieces for the pattern sorry

Earl that “Pin” idea to help keep things straight for glue is GOLD! Thanks for the great videos.

Excellent presentation I feel like I learned how to do some neat things, thank you for sharing. Lookin forward to your next video.
Great video Earl. Thank you for systematically going through the building of this beautiful ring. Well done.......
Great video Earl and a very nice result with your feature ring. I always learn something every time I watch one. I'm looking forward to seeing it in your completed turning.
Beautiful ring, Earl. Looking forward to seeing the project you use it for!

Very good video nice instruction. Good health to you Thanks
Excellent presentation Earl. Thanks for the lesson
as usual another very informative video. Thanks for sharing and I'm looking forward to the completed projects.
I like the jig you used to glue up the sticks, thanks for everything!
eccellente presentazione, e con poche attrezzature almeno per quello che si vede . Ottimo il lavoro (Complimenti)

love your clamp. I'm telling everyone how good they work.
Always enjoy your videos and projects.
Very nice!! I hope to see the ring in the object it is for. Perfect tutorial

Excellent job sir
That's very interesting Earl , and a lot of great information . Keep them coming . Thanks for sharing .
Vary nice Earl, thanks for the education.
EARL very informative video .

earl's small segment shop Thanks Earl. I'm going to give it a try.
Hi earl
Beautiful feature ring
I have had a practice go at one
With mahogany&beech but had aproblem
With them falling apart when cut to strips on the table saw
I used tightbond 2 glue
Is this a common problem or am I doing something wrong
Love your vibeo's very informative
All the very best

Love your videos Earl. I get confused on angles easily. You said to cut to 25 degrees. When I make 12 segment rings I use 30 degrees.
30 deg is a good angle just remember the more angle the longer they get, so it depends on how lone vs tall you want them.
I think I misread that the first time 30 deg is correct for the segment angles for a 12 seg ring , the angles I was talking about is for cutting the pieces for the pattern sorry
Thank you for the clarification. I was thinking that way after posting.
Eventually I will make this for a friend.
Muy bonito muy complicado para mi es ustd un Maestro

Do you have a video on your table press
No I do not, I will make one some time soon.
well know what come next. going get Celtic not patern from stoneykins punk in patterns. make Celtic not vase.
