    amazing work with great results only thing i want to say is safety i have a metal lathe golden rule #1 no sleeves no jewlery no gloves or any thing that could get caught by the rotating stock or head stock of the machine

      Catch your glove and your widow gets to turn off the lathe.

      That is true but the tool rest ur hands should be on the opposite side of your work and chances are nothing will happen but it is still a good rule of thumb

      @user-bt6jy6qu7y ปีที่แล้ว +13

      It's not about getting caught by the stock it's about getting caught in ribbons of metal shavings. You'll know that not all metals come off as pieces on a lathe, some metals create ribbons that are sharp as razors just as in drilling metals. Wood will always come off the same in a lathe no matter weather hard or soft wood. But you're right as far as working with metals in lathing, drilling etc, you don't wear gloves, long sleeve shirts unbuttoned or jewelery cause you can lose fingers or even limbs that way.

    I know the problem. I tried to turn a huge vase from a cherry log... it ended up as a honey dipper. My wife asked if I could turn a large platter for Christmas treats... another honey dipper. Last month I started work on an oak desk... fortunately, it was for a friend who loves honey so it wasn't a total failure.
    By the way, does anyone need a honey dipper? Give me a call. I've got a few.

    I followed your work with great interest because I love these tutorials... but what makes me smile (if you allow me) is that you took a nice tree trunk to make a small honey tool... something comes to mind movie where someone like you had taken a huge tree trunk to make a single toothpick.
    please smile and don't be offended because I admire your work and truly appreciate it

    I can see what you mean by unexpected. You did well to salvage anything! At one point I thought you were going to have to turn away the whole log. But in the end you made excellent use of a piece of a species which is normally chipped or burnt. Credit to you as always for finding beauty and purpose in your chosen material. I love this channel.

    So the plan for this video was to turn a Christmas tree with last year's Christmas tree. However, when I started to turn this wood it was splitting and tearing all over the place so I decided to keep turning until I got to a usable piece of wood. It was totally unexpected for me as my plan went completely out of the window but I decided to just go with it. Sometimes my best work comes from moments like this.

      Eu também sei bem o que é isso. Eu costumo dizer que a madeira tem personalidade e é ela quem define no que quer se transformar e o mais incrível é que ela sempre tem razão. Já torneei algumas peças que eu nunca imaginei que faria. No decorrer do vídeo percebi que você usou ferramentas poderosas(grandes demais), então ficou uma dúvida: Será que o resultado seria diferente se você tivesse usado ferramentas menores?
