  • In this video I make a segmented turning with a very cool illusion.
    It is all about using 3 types of wood to create a shadow effect,
    It was a lot of fun and has given me ideas for doing more with a different design.
    Made from Purple Heart, Teak, Maple and Cherry.
    Finished with Deft spray lacquer and Acks Sanding Paste and Polish/Restoring Paste.
    Tools used: Bowl gouges and negative rake scrapers

      Thank you very much Gail. Most of the illusions are inspired by the artist M.C. Ecsher. I appreciate you watching and commenting,

    There is something really engaging in geometry, especially when the results are so spectacular. I gotta try this one myself! So I dare say there will be several rewatching episodes to look forward to. :)

    • @ThePapa1947

      Thank you very much Peter. Geometry is very useful and can create some very interesting shapes. I pretty much used it everyday at work and I still love it.

      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you very much Thomas. I have studied these types of images for a long time and always thought I should see if I could make one. As it turns out I found it was pretty much based on geometry which I love so it ended up being easier than I expected. Still a lot of work to get there but at least I could see where I was going.

    Wow. I just don't know what to say, Gary. This seems like the most complicated segment piece you have done but only you know if that's true. It certainly, for me, requires the most studying to see how it was done and even though I watched how it was done, I still can't quite comprehend it. I guess I will just say, it's magnificent in it's complexity and stirs the imagination and activates little used brain cells. As always, such a great finish to cap it all off! Fun to watch, that's for sure!
    Phil

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Thank you Phil! Well I would say it was the most complex glue up I have done. But after doing one section of the center piece the light bulb lit up. Hmm there are only 4 shapes to the whole thing. Well it was still tricky gluing it up but that gave me the feeling that this will work for sure.
      And for sure those little brain cells got a real work out so I have some really easy(I hope) turnings lined up. Just real busy with a lot of things going on.
      I told you about the rats chewing a wire but that was and easy fix. We went camping for a family reunion last week and went to start the generator. Dang things chewed 7 wires so it would not start. And one took the trip with us to where we camped. While trying to clean out the nest he jumped out and landed on my chest.
      So I think I deserve a few easy turnings. That is my story and I am sticking with it LOL.
      Thanks for watching my friend,
      Gary

      Thank you Bob. I was trying to figure out how to hide the design during the glue up but that would have been impossible.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you very much Joe! I am sure if I would have dished it out a lot the look would have changed. That was the main reason for having a thing glue up to start with.
      I was thinking about using Polycrylic on it which also would have been nice.

    " A thing of beauty is a joy forever ".
    Basically it's marquetry but in this case thickened and made to have two faces. I assume the the two faces a parallel. It might be interesting to slightly dish one of the faces, to see if this enhances the 3D illusion, although it might be that it might ruin it.
    An exacting process, done with a lot of TLC. Highly praiseworthy.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Harold. I appreciate your comments and I did dish it out about a 1/4" on the top and a bit more on curve on the bottom.
      I was concerned about changing the look.

      For sure there is lots of time and work to do these. Purple Heart is not my favorite but it really worked out nicely here. And over time it darkens which will just add to the look.

    Outstanding, Gary!!! It’s always a pleasure watching you turn wood since you come up with all sorts of neat jigs to assist in cutting and in assembly.
    As a retired engineer, I designed things but did not make the parts. It was the machinists who came up with the way to machine parts using jigs they made. The same for your wood turnings. Those who do the actual work are the true masters of machining and turning wood. I am always in awe in what you come up with to turn wood. I learn so much from you; even in my 70s I am still learning.

    • @ThePapa1947
      @ThePapa1947  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thank you very much John. As a retired wood pattern maker I loved working with the engineers where I would take their drawings and design a way to make it so it could be used to make metal castings.
      I will never forget working with and engineer at the former(Freightliner Trucks) now Daimler and none of his fellow engineers could even see from the drawing what he had designed. As soon as I got it I started asking a few questions and he said: You can actually see what I have designed! That was a good feeling as I had just finished my apprenticeship a few years before that.
      To add to the story my son went to work for them years later as a mechanical engineer.

    Gary,
    Oh, my. You've done some masterpieces, but this one......... It's outstanding! Your choice of woods, precision and execution are simply the best. You're a master, for sure. I want to make this. I haven't turned any thing in quite a while. This has given me some much needed inspiration. I guess I'll brave the 100+ heat and start selecting woods and dimensions.

      Thanks so much RP. This was a lot of fun to figure out and make.
      I normally use Walnut, Maple and Cherry for for tumbling blocks but with this I wanted a dark back ground and I think the Walnut would not have stood out. The Teak worked perfectly.
      And I appreciate your very kind comments.
      I know you will enjoy making it and have lots of fun doing it.
      We are supposed to hit 102 this weekend but that changes every 5 minutes.
      Enjoy the process and I am sure you will do great.
      Take care,

    It's Beautiful, Memorizing... Just simply Amazing!
    It really does fool your eyes. I used to watch my dad, as a kid, while he was wood turning, and was simply amazed by some of the things he made. I'm still amazed by the things you can do today! I wish I could of had his lathe because I'm still just star struck when I watch you at work and would love to be able to do some of these things myself. I work odd jobs and am always looking for different avenue to make some cash but if I was half ass good as yourself, I believe I had found something I love to do and can make a living from it! I would be blessed! That's far off, so until then, I'll continue to watch what observe what beautiful work you do! It might be interesting to see the actual 3d structure next to this. A cool conversation piece for sure!

      If I did it would probably be things like this. I think there is a lot of people wanting to sell the similar turnings.

      I would be happy to share the sizes of these pieces but to be honest I do not know exactly what they what they are. Once I adjusted a scrap piece to fit I just went ahead and cut the pieces as needed.
      What I plan on doing is a video on the 4 sizes needed and make something special at the same time.
      So give me a little time to work all this out and I will share all the information with you.
      If i do not make the video soon I will create a cutting list on the sizes.
      These sizes will have to be exact starting from the width of the strips being used.
      Keep an eye open for this in a month or so. if not you can hit me up and I should be able to help you out.

      I would be happy to share the sizes and plan on making a video showing how they are cut and sizes.
