- Making a spring pole lathe from Roy Underhill s design. this is a double spring design that came from the 1500s and has been modified many times. in this video we make Boom arm, hickory spring, and tredal. we will cover riving out the spring and trimming it down with a froe and draw knife. so let's look at how to make a lathe with hand tools in this woodworking project.

Very excited to see that thing turning soon!
you and me both! LOL
Absolutely brilliant, such skills you have to make it look so easy. No noise, no music, just doing it, such a joy! Keep up the great work.
+Michael Jasper thanks Michael. More fun to come!
I watched Shannon turn the legs on the stool he just made on his treadle lathe and I think I would like to give turning a try. This would be less of an investment to see if I like it. I may have to build one. Thanks for another great video.
So true. the whole build will come under $50
Wood By Wright the turning tools will be a little of an investment but worth it. I worked in metal fabrication for years before an industrial accident put me in therapy and multiple back surgeries sent me back to college and a career change. I do believe I could build a good treadle lathe but not sure how much I would use it. The spring pole looks to be a good choice. Don't forget to give us some insight into the proper turning tools.
will do!
I just found you on youtube. It has been a joy to watch you and listen to you enjoying your woodwork. I prefer using hand tools and doing woodwork manually, and many people have wondered why I don't use more power tools.
I'm very glad to find someone else who gets it.
A lot of people have been LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS....Yepee...rr
I am one of them! more to come though!
It's looking better than I imagined. I'm sure the small design changes are going to work out great. It will be good to see it finished and working 😊
thanks man! looking forward to it!
What a cool project. The floor looks great with the shavings on it too.
+Jim Dockrell thanks Jim. I could not agree more.
I think I'm pretty good at turning. My speciality is turning a beautiful piece of wood with eye popping grain into fire wood :) :) . As I speak I'm making Christmas ornaments but on a power lathe so I can't match you James, but you are one of my heroes
+Peter Compton lol thanks Peter. I am looking forward to making Christmas presents on it.
Was just thinking James; you'd make a great Chief Toy Maker Elf for Santa's Workshop(little big, but you get the picture when watching you play with this, lol.)...rr
LOL that sounds like a great video!
Richard Rider yep and all he’s gotta do is put bells on his clogs!!! :D
LOL I should do that for something! I would sound like a one-man percussion section.
Wait! This isn’t made of white oak? Outrageous!
Looks by the way :)
Very cool. I can remember watching Roy do some of this on his show. Your's is cool because you go into more detail. He did his whole lathe in like two or three shows. Like I said Very cool.
LOL yup. I love that show!
So cool James just the way it operates, what I find fascinating is the spring and the way to adjust it is very cool.
thaks Thom. Really wish I could take credit for the design on that one.
Fantastic!
thanks Kate
Loving it James. Your enthusiasm is so contagious!
Thanks Robert. the last part in the series will be out tomorrow.
Awesome job James I can't wait to see the finished product.
+Opa's Workshop you and me both. Thanks Opa.
That is looking rather like a lathe!! well done!
thanks man!
Can't wait to see HOW this turns stuff!!! :)
+Myra Wright it is Comming. Maybe later this week.
Awesome, this will be useful. Can't wait to see it at work. Nice watch too.
Thaks Adrian. this will definitely be a fun one to play with!
Yes! I'm getting excited to see you turn something on this... love this project!
Thaks. you and me both!
Nice work......you are extremely talented.........looking forward to seeing this project complete and in use!!!
thanks! hoping to have that video out this weekend!
Good to see how far you’ve gotten, looks so pretty 😍💕
now who is back at #1. LOL thanks man!
Wood By Wright 😂👍🏻
Terrific project & great work as always. Can't wait to see what you turn for the first go around. Perhaps something for the wife & kiddies? Steve :)
probably just a stick. LOL it has been too long since I last played on one fo these and that was only for a bit.
Nice !!!!
thanks man!
Awesome project my brother I like it great job :)
thanks TJ. I am looking forward to playing on this one!
I built the one in his book. It didn't have that block. It tells you to rivet two copper conduit straps together. It works fine.
Yup, that is one of the changes I will be making. I just like the feel of the block more than strap or twine. but they both work perfectly.
Because Turning!!!
LOL yup!
bawlzzz!!!! NOW YA NEED SOME TOE TAP,N MUSIC
LOL I should do a showdown with it!
OMG that would make peeps pee themselves
James, in your first episode, you covered the wood and said the spring was from big-box store; however, it looks like in this episode you are not using that. Can you provide more details on your experience with the original wood, why you switched to splitting one out with a froe, and more importantly, what are optional variations on the spring return (Bungee, other woods, etc..)
I live in Germany and the hugest issue I have is finding quality wood. I'm sure it is a language barrier; however, the challenge remains nonetheless. Then there is the expense... ; )
Thanks for a wonderful channel. I try to be more of lurker and seeking answers myself; however I couldn't find a reference to the change above or in comments (did I miss it?).
Happy Holidays!
The bottom spring is hickory from the big box store. It's 3/4 in by inch and a half. However, the mainspring that the cord connects to has to have a lot more flex and for that you need to make sure you have a straight grain with it running all the way from one end to the other. The best way to do that is to split it out of a board, the split will run along the grain and guarantee you have grain going from one end to the other. You can also just use a good straight tree branch. Pick one that's bigger than you need and trim it down to the size you want.
@@WoodByWright Thank you! So it is partly the big box and partly not.
I probably missed that in the series and was thrown off by the riving of the upper spring which didn't look like a big box piece of wood.
THANK YOU for a very thorough reply.
Tool rest!!! Tail stock? Good video though. Thanks James!
lol real men do not need those things!
Getting there... recently saw one with all sorts of carving on the rails and posts. Not that you would do anything like that eh?
LOL not on this one. though the idea crossed my mind. this one is bare bones so I can at least turn in the shop.
Coming along nicely. So, is the treacle just gonna free float like that, or will it be attached to a pivot at the foot end?
for right now it will just free float, but I might make a more tricked out on in the future.
i'm 15 and looking to start getting into wood working. i also want to use as traditional as possible hand tools, what tools should i buy first. Also, where should i start learning about woodworking?
Here is my suggestion on where to start with tools. th-cam.com/video/LKvyJ4CrvDQ/w-d-xo.html as to how to learn that depends on you. I made the transition to hand tools and picked up 99% of what I learned from youtube. but a lot of people have to have some one there teaching along the way.
Have you, has anyone in history, considered replacing the spring with a weight? Would it be advantageous to have a constant force applied to the turned piece?
That can be done and I have seen some do it but having the force change is advantageous as you do want more force on the cord to get the bowl turning how to start and it's good to have less Force on the spring at the beginning when you push down with your foot. If you put a weight on the end it tends to bounce around and can cause it to be a bit jerky.
That makes sense. Thank you, @@WoodByWright.
Are the clogs difficult to work in? They look slippery and unnatural to stand/maneuver. But, they do seem quite well made.
they are the best shop shoes you can have. very comfortable and protect the feet.
I see a spring with a rocker arm, but I do not see a pole.
Using a chisel instead of a coping saw is more enjoyable... Are you "pare-it-ing" Roy Underhill? ;)
LOL you got to do what is fun!
Rite in the Rain mechanical pencil? How do you like it?
that was a lead holder made by a friend. The wood is white oak anytime I need a pencil that is the one I grab for.
Have you ever heard of boiled mineral oil? Is that a thing? Lol
no. mineral oil does not polymerize so I am not sure what boiling it would do.
so why not a treadle lathe?
I will make one of those eventually too. but this is faster to make, and more fun to play on.
Wood By Wright wow thats impressive, two lathes. will look forward to it
Fourteen, ha ha ha.
+Brian Prusa oh shoot I got to put out more videos you are catching up!
