I made about 20 of these tiny bells from my neighbors dry limbs yesterday, they all sold today from my garage sale. I sold mine for $5 each. I wish I'd turned more, they went like hot pancakes. Thanks for this great idea. I'll be making some more bells tomorrow.
That is awesome, glad you did well with them, Thanks for Watching!!!
Hey Dean, Those bell ornaments are cute and look like they are quick and easy to make. Thanks. Yall have a wonderful day.

Thanks for the video. I was looking for ornament ideas when I found your video.
Did you know that Turners warehouse was doing an ornament contest? The proceeds go to Saint Jude.
That is awesome! Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks Dean, can always use some simple, quick pieces to have a customer stop & make comments.. Blessings
Thanks Greg, and Thanks for Watching!!!
I love your videos. I don't know why you don't gave more subscribers.. your teaching style is relaxed and your ideas are great for all turner's. Beginners can stay basic, experts can put their own spin on things. Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. From the UK x
Thank you so much Jenny for all the kind words, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice little project for the season Dean.
Thanks Doug!!!
You made that look so easy! I’m definitely going to give it a try. My first snowman didn’t come out very good, so I’m hoping this would go better! Thanks again for another great instructional video!
Thanks Cindy, just take your time and practice and most of all have fun. Thanks for Watching
Dean so glad I found your channel.
Love the pace and the way you show how it’s done.
I wish you’d identify the blank you’re using my size and species. As a new turner teaching myself I’ve found you to be the most helpful.
Thanks
Welcome! Thanks for Watching!!
Love your instructional videos, I've learned so much from you. Hope you never stop making these videos. Thank you
Glad you like them Charles! Thanks for Watching!!!
Good instructional video. We’ve been turning a few ornaments too. Our first batch are variations on traditional ornaments.
Oh cool! Thanks for Watching!!!
Just found your channel & immediately subscribed- neat project- just what I’m looking spindle projects- thanks for sharing your time & your talent

Welcome aboard Bill, Thanks for the Sub and for Watching!!!
Dean Another Great Video... Been turning some of your Snowman Icicles with my twist to them.. This is another great one to add to my tool kit, Thanks for all the Helpful Hints.... After putting a drill through my wrist a couple years ago (Standing on a ladder, Snapped the Bit and Threw me to the Ground put the bit Through and Through..LOL) I use my drill press to drill all the ornaments I make ( I realize you are showing folks they don't have to have a drill press to do this process) I'm a little gun shy after my accident..LOL.... for my Eyelets I twist small gauge galvanized wire over an old roofing nail... makes a super cheep eyelet that you can super glue into the top instead of using screw eyes.. Again thanks for the Videos
Ouuch!! That hurts me to even hear about it. You can never be too safe in the shop. Thanks for another great idea on the eyelets and Thanks for Watching!!!
I love this type of project! Keep them coming. I wish you would give us the final diameter and length as I am not very good (yet) with the design aspect.
Jesse the problem with giving dimensions on a project like this is no two are the same. because you are working with a limb. keep turning and you will develope your eye. the good thing is there is no material cost.
Thanks for Watching
Hey Dean. I want to show you how I hang mine with fishing leads. That way they spin on the hook. I drill it the same way you did and use ca glue too. The leads are so cheap and work great.
Sounds great!
Love your videos Dean, turned my first ever snowman on my lathe last night…his hat had a few chunks, but I’m going to practice up for next year….want to THANK YOU for inspiring me to turn…one question though, the sandpaper you use, what brand is it, I haven’t seen any that pliable… Thanks again!!
Thanks for the video! Beautiful bell. Love these simple projects. Going to head out to the shop to make some of these now. I do have one question though. You listed all the tools, except the sandpaper you use. I have been using Norton paper, but its stiff...the stuffyou are using looks like its soft, fabric like, and seems to get right into the nooks and crannies. What is that? It could be huge for all the little ornaments I'm making right now. Thanks!!
Awesome! Thank you!
you give us lots of great ideas, thank you
You are so welcome! Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice job on the bell, what would a Craft Fare customer have to pay for this piece?
Thanks!
I belive I sold these for $7.
Hi Dean...I have a question about the limb you are using. You say it is dry and has been laying around a while. How long has it been drying? How do you prevent cracking or checking? Do you treat it with end grain sealer? Do you dry it with the bark on it? Will it crack after turning if it still has the pith in it?
There is not a real good answer for your question. in 2017 I turned multiple pieces like the one I used in this video, I coated them with bees wax on the lathe and used a cloth to melt it into the wood. This was just an experiment for me and I wanted to see what happened. The oak did not crack or cracked very little. others split wide open. I have had no problems with them cracking after they are dry. These have been in the house with air able to circulate around them for almost 5 years. I hope that helps, Thanks for Watching!!!
Can you tell me where do you buy you decorative hook for suspend you ornements thanks Dean❤
Amazon the link is in the description
Nicely done. Only thing for me is when you where shaping if it was an overhead view. Was hard to see exactly what you were doing. I really enjoy you videos.
Thanks for the tip, and Thanks for Watching!!!
How much do you sell the ornaments for? Thank you, Eva
It really depends on the Ornament the Bells sell for 7 - 10. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks Dean. So, how much money would the bell bring at a craft show?
I think I sell those for $12 and the last two shows I have sold out of bells and trees in the first hour.
@@DeansWoodworking Thanks..
your welcome!!
Hi, I just aquired a lathe and an going to learn to turn. I came across your channel and like what I see so subbed to you. I am from Huntsville, Texas.
Thanks for the sub! and congrats on the new lathe.
What do these and your other ornaments sell for?
All are priced differently. these are $7-10 but remember your area has a lot to do with pricing. Thanks for Watching!!!
Howmuch is that bell? Or one just like it?
Why is it necessary to drill the hanger hole so deep?
Its not. drill it as deep as you want. Thanks for Watching!!
What are the dimensions of the finished bell?
They Vary
women really like christmas balls!
Thanks
You don't say what belongs to bell. Am curious.
The content is great.. Hoever it is disturbing that you promote wearing a watch while operating a lathe. It is a potentially dangerous practice.
Remember we are all responsible for our own safety you should never do something that you are not comfortable with.
Question how much would you sell them for?
I have been selling them for $7.50.Thanks for Watching!!!
Just a suggestion. When you chuck up a piece of rough stock for one of these projects it would be nice to know what size the stock is and approximate size of finished product, etc. Recently subscribed, enjoying your channel. Thank you. :)
Great suggestion! However the reason I did not do that with the bell is that no two are the same. Thanks for Watching!!!
