Omg! one of the 2 best channels for turning! I loved your last one that showed side grain log attaching to lathe using forstner bit to start,, I needed to start somewhere, was having grade 9 students make handles from ripped 2x4 for handles for tool boxes, wondering what higher grades can make.. and I found this, and the flower vial holder!!!! Guess what presents friends, girlfriends, boyfriends parents, grandparents are getting for gifts from school this year😊😊😊. Next year,, birdmouth sidegrained log turnings:)
Very cool. I like the rough, burned lip. Surprised when you cut it off where you did. Thought you were forming the stem of a goblet. Always keep the viewers guessing! Cheers.
I bought several pieces of cedar 4x4 post to use as practice pieces for turning things, but all it does is shatter. Out of 10 or 12 pieces so far, Ive gotten 3 small bowls and 1 small vase. That looked nice a nice piece of wood, any idea what kind it was?
@@starhawke380 It was construction lumber. So more than likely it was hemlock or Douglas fir. Basically the pine family. Cedar is pretty soft. You have to take light cuts and don't push the tool into the wood. Establish your cut at the beginning and glide thru it. Don't try to push the tool into or (against the wood).
@starhawke380 Your on the right track. The cheaper wood like pine and cedar are soft woods and less forgiving then hard wood. Get good at the soft wood and you will master the hardwood.
Nice job making the rim . You might want your tool rest closer to the vase . Using a claw hammer to set spur drive in log has damaged the end , a wood mallet or one made from HDPP OR HDPE will not damage the drive end . Presenting the toe of the skew to the end , on edge and handle high , works great to face off the end while between center
Thank you David. It's called a hook tool. Mine is homemade. I believe it's popular in Russia. There is one similar. It's called a termite tool. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
If you want to be adventurous you could make your own. 😁. I mentioned the termite tool. I think it's made by Robert sorby. Also the weideman hook tool. You can Google both and probably find info on them. Hope that helps. Good luck. Rus
Thank you Paul! It's called a hook tool. Mine is homemade. There is one similar. I think it's called a oneway termite hollowing tool. Thanks for watching!

I've actually been thinking about doing one. Yes I have heard of that channel. I believe he lives here in town. I don't watch to many videos though. Thanks for watching!
Thank you Carrie 🙏. I use friction polish. 2 parts shellac and one part each of denatured alcohol and mineral oil. Yes it is food safe. Thanks for watching.

you sure got the walls of that real thin. 👍 you should put in your description what you use to finish the wood. always looks great.
@@DennisDolan-fl3mw it's in almost everyone of my videos.

@@RcWoodturning Im learning that, thanks! Good wood to practice on is getting to be expensive...

Lovely technique with the hook there mate! Home made tool?

Yes. I used a flat concrete nail for the blade and a steel rod for the handle.
Thanks for watching!

Hi Rus, That is so lovely.
I especially like the textured burnt rim.
Great video mate.
Take care.
Cheers, Huw
Thanks Huw. I appreciate you watching. Rus
Skew-skills!
Well, I'm not the best but I'm working on it. Thanks for watching.
You’re either brave or crazy to putting that flame so close to all the sawdust shaving from lathe
Those were the early days. I'm more careful now.
Thank you for demonstration very nice piece. Can you please provide information on the hook shaped hollowing tool? It looks like it works well.
Thank you David. It's called a hook tool. Mine is homemade. I believe it's popular in Russia. There is one similar. It's called a termite tool. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
@@RcWoodturning thank you it looks like it is highly useful, if you know a supplier please advise. Best

@@RcWoodturning thank you. I searched and found resources, Merry Christmas
@@davidfriedman3962 merry Christmas to you too. Good luck. I hope you find what your looking for.
Nice video. What is the name of that black hollowing tool.
Thank you Paul!
It's called a hook tool. Mine is homemade. There is one similar. I think it's called a oneway termite hollowing tool.
Thanks for watching!
What is the hollowing tool you used?
It's called a hook tool
Nice, however, it brings up a question. Can you or should you turn treated wood. That seems to be the only 4x4 in this neck of the woods.
Thanks David!
I've heard it can be hazardous to breath. I would steer clear of treated wood. Maybe find cedar posts?
What kind of tool are you using
It's called a hook tool.
Hello. What kind of rag are you using to apply oil and is that what you would use regularly ? Thank you
I use paper towels in a box. I believe they are called wyp-all. I use them all the time.

what is the name of the tool you are using at time mark 3:00?
It's called a hook tool.
Very nice piece. Like the rough look. What kind of finish do you use and would it be safe for liquids?? Thanks
Thank you Carrie 🙏. I use friction polish. 2 parts shellac and one part each of denatured alcohol and mineral oil. Yes it is food safe. Thanks for watching.
Cool thank you for the info!!! I will be watching more. I'm addicted!! lol have a great holiday
@@carriemyre5809 thank you Carrie. I'll try to keep you entertained.😁
What paint do you apply?
I use friction polish. It's a mix of shellac, mineral oil, and denatured alcohol.
I think you did that with smoke and mirrors. LOL
I would tell you but us magicians have code. 😁
Мне эта башня с зубцами не понравилась...👎
Thanks for watching.
