Woodturning - My Favourite Project (Must Watch!)

- I am never sure what to get my mum for Mother's Day, so I decided to make her something this year. She has a Gucci watch with a bee emblem that she was given on her 21st birthday, but unfortunately, it hasn't worked for a few years. I came up with the great idea of getting the watch fixed and presenting it in a custom watch box. That's when the plan went to pot. As I am a massive lover of horology I didn't think it would be suspicious if I was to ask to see the watch, with Mum not knowing my intention of taking it to a jeweller for repair. Unfortunately, it couldn't be found the first time she looked for it. About a week later (while making the box) I decided to ask again, I didn't want to come across as suspicious, so I wasn't asking every day, but the watch still couldn't be found. After this more thorough unsuccessful look, I decided to tell mum what I was doing.
The watch still hasn't been found but there are thoughts within the family as to where it might be. Until it's found, I guess I will have to use it for one of my watches.
The box is made from Ash, Panga Panga, Pau Rosa, and Birdseye maple. I tried to use timbers that mean a lot to me, and help to show off my skill and craftsmanship, did I achieve that?
The piece is sanded to 10000 grit and finished with Danish oil and wax.
I will be making more of these pieces, as I said horology is a passion of mine and I was to create custom boxes for all of my watches. If you are interested in commissioning a piece send me an email 😁

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.
Mum must be quite delighted.
As a mom I can tell you for sure that your mum loves that box because she loves you. Nice work, young man.
Absolutely beautiful work ❤
Beautiful piece Harry. Thank you for sharing your imagination and skills with us.
So beautiful! My husband turned me a box similar to it. It sat on my desk at work for years and came home with me when I retired. You just made a family heirloom. Well done!
That is one beautiful watch box, so elegant, classy. Cheers

Another great one Harry
Very beautiful.
You are an artist

What an awesome design. You did it well. 😄😄
Two questions;
1) Where can I learn wood turning?
2) What type of 'glue' and 'activator' do/did you use?
WOW!
I'm confused, but don't let that slow you down, your Mother is probably thrilled
Good skill

nice turn, Bro.
Very nice.
Very nice!
Just. A single word: B R A VO.
Wow that's gorgeous. Have you ever considered fashioning a tuba from wood - yew in particular? Why? Because everyone enjoys a good yew tuba. I'll see myself out. 😁
Bardzo eleganckie.
Interesting with the use of the roughing gouge for turning. However, I cringe when I see gloves worn around power tools.
Обрезать углы куба ленточной пилой - работы на токарке на полчаса меньше...
😂😂😂😂
If you only had the gumption to talk and explain what you are doing...had to stop the video after a minute or so, I do not watch those who won't talk...
Nice Watch, beautiful case for it too, send that video to Rolex ; I bet you could get a contract from them for their "very special" customers !! wink wink
Some really strange use or on use of a square ...or squaring wood
