Absolutely beautiful platter! I fully enjoyed watching you make that all the way thru. And I totally enjoy your content. Keep up the good work. And thank you for the mention! I'm super glad that little trick works for you. 👍👍👍
Great platter Kerry. No doubt about the old Red Cedar, it gives a great finish. I am a bit the opposite to you. I have been a solid face plate and face plate ring guy for awhile and now I am turning towards the screw chuck. I even ordered a Vic Mark screw chuck the other day. The old turners like Richard Raffen swear by them and reckon that they will never let go and i think they might be right. They are a bit less mucking around than the other way. I notice you brand your stuff. I could never get a consistent result out of that and so now have got onto a bloke in the US who is a wood turner and does medallions on the side - very professional job indeed. Let me know if you are interested and i can email you the detail. Cheers
Thanks so much for this Ray. I really appreciate it, mate. Screw chucks are the Go, they are very handy! I’m actually looking at a laser at the moment from a company called Woodpecker. I’ll keep you posted on how I go mate, but thank you very much. Cheers, Kez
Hey Kerry, reallynice plate you made, thank you for explaining the sanding and polishing stages in details with the products you use. Out of curiosity what drill bit do you use for the centre hole on which to reference the face plate (the one you measure for depth before mounting the chuck)?
Thank you mate; I appreciate the feedback. Yeh, I speed the sanding and polishing sections up, but still necessary to list the process. I believe the drill bit it 7mm, and the tool used to check the depth was a vernier calliper. At the start of the video, I used the drive dog in the faceplate to find the centre. Does that answer your question mate? Cheers mate🙏
@@KerryCorney thanks mate, I’m designing something that I’d like to gift you as a thank you for the enthusiasm you transmit every time in your videos, will let you know when it’s ready 😉
If you have a video about when to use tenon bs mortise. Also depth of both. I am constantly told I need to make them deeper. Not that I haven’t put a piece on the floor but it’s rare. I tend to turn less aggressively than others in the group but complete items every bit as fast. What’s your take on it
I use tenons for bowl tuning and vases, and a mortise for platters. As far as depth goes when creating your mortise, do a test run while the piece is still on the lathe and check it with the intended chuck jaws. This is a super simple method for knowing and testing the connection. You will soon see what fits perfectly. Have you seen this video I made? th-cam.com/video/hl2MUl6_ZfQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9-dvV7ag2vygfSqX and this video th-cam.com/video/QiCNRcm4HfU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aTrt1iO7FZsqPjck Hope this helps, mate. Keep me posted on how you go. Cheers, Kez
I have yet to try EEE with Danish oil. But have you seen this video th-cam.com/video/J8mKX1QGxjo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qXztijQHZFP0Dcwx about the Danish oil wet sanding?

Just beautiful mate love your work
Thank you so much mate. Make sure you pre-empt Gravey slippage😉🤣🍻
Fantastic seeing your process Kerry!!!
Cheers mate👌
It is a joy to watch you work
Wow ❕ thanks mate. Any suggestions for the next project, Traditionally turning?
@@KerryCorney you do a lot of big stuff. Why not try something small and intricate like a potpourri pot?
@@billkroulek3814 That sounds interesting, sounds like it would be a tight closed-form shape.

Thank you for the video. very nice piece. This is sometbing I can try. I up upgraded to a larger lathe.
Thank you for watching Alan. I filmed that during summer, gee it was hot.
Cheers,

Bloody nice one Kerry, too good to eat off though.
Something tells me the owner won't be eating it.

If you don't have Aussie oil can you use danish oil and follow the rest of your finishing list?
I have yet to try EEE with Danish oil. But have you seen this video th-cam.com/video/J8mKX1QGxjo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qXztijQHZFP0Dcwx about the Danish oil wet sanding?
@@KerryCorney I was thinking of that one as I don’t have Aussie oil. Thanks for the reply.
To easy mate. Let me know how you go. 👌🤝 cheers
I have a lot hope you survive?
Thanks mate.
