I have not turned a necklace pendant for a long time. Past time to update jigs and fixtures to make the task easier.
The main accessory is a shop-made chuck based on "Build A Shopmade Chuck For Offset Turnings" by David Mueller. American Woodturner February 2015. I have adapted this chuck to have exchangeable work platforms that interchange with the Infinite Axis Chuck that I designed.
The eccentric chuck article is available to read or download from

Turning sent much easier with a couple more accessories:
- 2 screw chucks (3/8") for direct mount of the work platform to the lathe spindle.
- Flat faced faceplate sized for target diameter also used to press double sided tape bonding.
Enjoy!

For my medallions I've used hot glue as well and as you mentioned it can get messy. I love your idea about using an additional screw mount, faceplate to register the piece and denatured alcohol to soften the tape. I'm going to try that soon. Thanks
Yes, I got tried of trying to clean up after hot melt. After learning that DNA softens tape. I will stick to double stick tape (for these)

Please make a video on the chuck
The chuck was the subject of an AAW article that did a great job. Reference in the description.
Alan
Great job, like your upgrades to the dyi jig, have to give it a try
Another upgrade coming -- mount with expansion to a chuck instead of a faceplate. More options for rotation.

bonjour Alan tres beau bijou avec un beau mandrin .C'est possible d'avoir le plan pour le faire ? merci pour la video a bientot bernard
Je ne peux pas. The article is copyrighted by AAW. Try going to the AAW site.

@@AsWoodTurns merci bonne journée
I like your idea of the alcohol to loosen the tape. Thanks
It works great. You're welcome

Hi Alan,
Fairley new turner, new viewer and a new subscriber to your channel!
This video has come at a perfect time, I’ve been asked if I could make a ring box, this jig fits the bill perfectly. I managed to find the article by David Mueller and am in the process of making this jig, I would like to know more about the modifications that you made, they make the jig even more versatile.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your techniques, tips and tricks, they sure help us newbies out.
Looking forward to your next video :-)
Wayne
Watch again this week.

Really nice, Alan. If your wife likes it, you're ahead of the game. Stay safe.
Bill
She liked the second one. :)
Alan
I really enjoy your videos. They’re very informative and interesting. I like your home made jigs. Thank you.
Glad you like them! You are welcome.
Alan
Another great video AND the using of denatured alcohol to remove the tape. That’s a new one for me.
Keep up the great work!
Tank you Jim

Hi Alan, Looking forward to more on the chucks. It made doing your nice medallion a lot easier. Cheers, Tom
More to come!
Alan
Very nice piece of work. 👍Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
Thanks, you too! Glen
Alan
Thanks. Appreciate the full face shield comment.
Always!
Alan
Cool stuff, I think I need to hit the shop and make some of those turning jigs.
Go for it.
Alan
Another good idea and I like how the pendant came out. Thank you for sharing your video.
You are welcome.
Alan
Really like the pendants and would like to try making some. The jig is great, but would probably cause too much vibration for my non-fixed lathe setup. Maybe mounting the workpiece to a plate that slides off centre (and can be locked in position) might also work and put a lot less weight off centre?
Also really like that you are making a system rather than random jigs. A video on this would be tremendous if you haven't already made one.
Thanks
Hello, the jig used is based on the sorby chuck and your proposal is usef by the Jean François Escoulen chuck. Only the last one uses conter weights if needed. Sorry for my English but this is not my maternal language. Regards.
@@yvesmazny8493 Thank you : )
vibration is minimal if you stay near original axis but much more the more the axis is shifted. Try putting a small disk on a faceplate and see how much there is. Also check at different speeds to find a sweet spot.
If you can figure out counter weights, that could also be an option.
Alan
@@AsWoodTurns Thanks for your answer. Counterweight driven by wooden sprockets is ticking away in the back of my mind, but it will be a couple of weeks till I can get to it.
Good iike sir
Thank you

"Pendant for a necklace' has potential gender bias implications. The same product could also be used as a zipper pull for sweaters (or turning smocks).
Good idea. Sorry I could not fit them all in the title. :)
Alan
"Potential gender bias implications" FFS another woke wierdo! Isnt zipper pull for sweaters gender biased? Or are you implying because it's "necklace" it refers to female and to balance the bias, "sweater" swings it to male? Wrong on both counts! Both male and females wear necklaces and sweaters!
Oxford Dictionary:- necklace an ornamental chain or string of beads, jewels, or links worn round the neck. No mention of by which gender!
Find something else to make a limp complaint about. As long as you're moaning you'll be happy!
