A few hours ago I found this video, I love the simple shape of your jig and the correct way to make this open-segment bowl, thanks for showing us this, now I'm following you, and I'll keep learning with your videos. one piece beauty
Great project, excellent jig and prediction. I would like to thank you for sharing your knowledge through a detailed video, which for lovers of this art of woodturning is sensational. I wish you success and a big hug from Brazil Said Choucair
You have a method that appears to be fantastic, but unlike anything else I have seen. I have the chuck and lathe, but not the other items. I'm afraid that you custom-made them. I would deeply appreciate getting any or all available. Thank you very much!!!!
Great video! Was wondering about the stop button on your tape measure. It's round, but can't be a magnet with the aluminum angle. How is it attached so you can move it for each ring? Also, does the starting hole on the plate need to be perfectly aligned with the aluminum angle and the edge of the first segment in order to achieve even spacing on the entire ring?
First of all I use Titebond Quick and Thick on all open segments for super fast drying between layers. I try to keep glue squeeze out to a minimum by ju adding a very small amount of glue with my pinkie finger on each side of the segment the align, press and hold for no longer than 5 seconds. Just enough time to turn the indexing jig to the next segment. If I do get too much squeeze out I have a very very small flat screwdriver that I run along side of segment for clean up. I’ll put another open segmented video online in a couple weeks and show it a little clearer.
Thank you Sherrill! For all my segmented turning I use software called Woodtutner Pro. Wonderful program and it has done everything I have asked it too!
Hi George! I don't have plans but I did some research online thru AAW site, Tom Lohman site and Chefware Kits. Just a little trial and error (more error) on my part! Are you starting totally from scratch or are you doing open segments now? I started on the lathe and gradually morphed into building a segment jig. Let me know if you need any help on your project.
On most open segment projects most viewers want to see the construction as opposed to turning. See my latest video about a thin wall walnut bowl for more turning.
I will miss working with you grandpa thanks for everything.

Thanks for your reply!
That is so beautiful. I love it!
Thank you
Beautiful work
Thank you!
Awesome bowl...lots of hard work!
Thank you Carol!
👏👏 looks great and made with skill and patience. The indexing wheel looks similar to this ‘Paul Howard Fluting Jig Index System’.
Thank you very much! It is from Chefware kits
What an awsome design. Always looks great.😄😄
Thanks for your comment!
Absolutely beautiful
Thanks Tim
Beautiful bowl!

I really enjoyed the work that put a lot of hard work and effort into it. Incredible👍👍

Hi sorry for the late response. Im not sure what you’re referring to in reference to l other items. Could you elaborate. Id love to help

Hi Jim
Did you build the guage yourself for space to the segments?
Please reply
Are you talking about the entire gluing jig?

Or the round indexing jig? I got at chefwarekits.com
Do you have plans for the jig you used?
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I have often wondered what to do with the squeeze out between the segments! How do you handle it?
First of all I use Titebond Quick and Thick on all open segments for super fast drying between layers.

Hi Jim. How do you calculate those segments and spacings?
I use Woodturner Pro software. Love it!
I'll dive into it. Thanks for the lead.@@LakeErieWoodturner
Great result. How did you do the math so the design stayed lined up?
Thank you Sherrill! For all my segmented turning I use software called Woodtutner Pro. Wonderful program and it has done everything I have asked it too!
Where did you get your gluing jig
See th-cam.com/video/RpoZmMkQnPE/w-d-xo.html for gluing jig video
How can i get the plans on how to build the jig you used in the open segment video
Hi George!

Let me know if you need any help on your project.
Good job! Did you builded the jig or you both somewhere?
See my jig making video th-cam.com/video/RpoZmMkQnPE/w-d-xo.html
Let me get this right.... You have a woodturning channel and you edited out all of the woodturning?
On most open segment projects most viewers want to see the construction as opposed to turning. See my latest video about a thin wall walnut bowl for more turning.
