I made one of these not too long ago out of Black Walnut. It was meant as decoration only. The lady that got it loved it.
You make things just look way too easy Carl :)
Great job! I always admire how quickly you do these projects. You make it look so smooth and easy. Thanks...
I think I will have to stop watching your videos Carl, you always make it look so easy so I get disappointed when I try it! lol
Another great video, thanks for sharing.
Your right Wayne, wood selection is very important. I made this just as a display. Yes mineral oil would be an appropriate food safe finish.
We crush garlic using that all the time. Its so pretty. I think the pestle is a great contrast in color. I'd keep it out of the sunlight. It'll change color over time anyways.
Nice video and turning.
Carnauba wax is used throughout the food industry. M&M's are coated with it. Stores use it to shine up their fruit for display.
Thanks for taking the trouble to clarify Charlie, I must agree with you after what you have said. I learned something valuable today :)
Take care
Mike
Thank you Francisco
Hi Mike, the Stapes paste wax is NOT food safe. I just use the mineral oil and salad bowl oil for a food safe finish.
Take care, Carl
Thank you Ashley
Good advice Pete Thanks
Thank you Gunter
Thank you Andy, Cocobolo comes from South America, and is pretty easy to find here in the US. That scraper comes in very handy with bowls.
Take care
Carl
Great project Carl, the figure is ideal for this sort of project. Must get me some Cocobolo, looks like it's nice to turn. Good job again my friend.
Take care
Mike
Nice little project, will make one for the charity shop.
Thank you Philip
Thank you Mark
Hi Peter, the paste wax is NOT food safe. I just use the mineral oil and salad bowl oil for a food safe finish. The had a small piece come off and wasn't true that is way t was rattling.
Take care, Carl
Thank you Mick, Cocobolo comes from South America, and is a beautiful wood to turn.
A great little points scorrer I can make for the missus. Thanks for another great video.
Thank you very much Jim
I'm addicted to your videos dude
Don't worry, I won't start charging you..lol
Thank you Ted,
Thank you Alan,
Thanks for letting me know Carl.
Take care
Mike
Hi Peter. I suggest that the item is decoration only merely because the paste wax isn't food safe. If you wanted to just use a food grade oil or not treat it at all and let "nature" do it's thing by naturally adding flavor as you grind. that's fine too. I bet the smell would be interesting after a while. As for the rattling, it could be the density of the wood that causes it, I know that when I turn dense wood, I get a lot more noise than if it was say Cedar.
Thank you Ron, that's funny I have several projects I always seem to forget too.
Nice to see your still at it Carl. Drop over some time
You beat me to this one. I have a mortar & pestle on my list from osage orange.
Good job.
Alan Stratton
I'm glad you found it.
Thank you, yes these make great gifts.
Hi Mark, for a food safe I will use beeswax and mineral oil. I mix it 10 parts wax 1 part oil.
Pete I will try to get a video up tomorrow explaining that.
Thank you John, I would definitely go with mineral oil, or Walnut oil. I wouldn't use Cocobolo as anything other than ornamental.
i recently started turning boxes out of oak. i'm not used to hard wood! it definitely takes a little longer, and a little more control :)
Yes hardwood can be a little difficult, but finishes much nicer.
Thank you
Very cool Carl. Great project.
Lovely project Carl. Two beautiful woods. These would make great presents for friends who cook a lot.
Best wishes,
Alan.
Nice job Carl !!
Cocobolo is a lovely wood and you seem to use it a lot in the US, I do not know of a similar wood here in GB ( shame)
Your huge scraper is a great tool, looks like it makes getting a nice even curve on the inside of bowls a lot easier.
Keep it up...........cheers...Andy.
Just got mine made yesterday and being from Texas it's made out of mesquite which is hard as a rock and beautiful Too ! Should last for years. Great video as always !!!
Thank you, I've only turned a little bit of Mesquite and you're right It's hard as a rock.
Thank you Charles
Beautiful work as always Carl! Thank you for leaving the catch in the vid. It makes me feel human to see that other wood turners still get catches like I do! LOL!
Thank you, Yes I'm sure she will love it!
Nice pestle & mortar - its always great to watch others work!
Thank you very much Stephen!
Thank you Alan, yes a great gift Cocobolo is probably not the best wood to use though.
Take care, Carl
Thank you for the advice it was much appreciated. Keep up the good work. I thoroughly enjoy your videos they are very interesting and not pretentious in any way. Thanks Mark
Thank you Tony, It's a fun project :)
Great job as always
Good to know, thanks
Thank you Dougie
Hi Carl,
This is as always a nice to be looking video and instructive.
I speak very little English and translate it to me with "Google Translate"
I find your videos very interesting.
Keep your eyes open. You will be surprised what you see around you, that you can turn.
Way cool Carl. Thanks.
Was just starting one of these!
Cute Mortar & Pestle!! you are great!
CARL great job
Love ya work there Carl nice job mate,i will have to source out a place here in Australia that sells Cocobolo it looks a beautiful timber..It is a native timber to America Carl...cheers Mick!!!
Thank you MIke, It's a beautiful wood to turn, but it can cause skin irritation.
Take care
Carl
It looks beautiful. Thank you for sharing you skills.
You did a wonderful job, thanks for sharing.
you make my turning look like childs play lol
MrTikisteel lol Thank you
I think both Ash and Beech would be good for this project.
Hi Mike, I have really no idea on that, I have been told though that paste wax is not food safe, so I just don't use it on anything that I even remotely will use for food. Carl may be able to give you a better idea on this issue.
Yes Micha is right, Cocobolo can be irritating to work with, and I don't want it all over me.
Have you ever made a mortar and pestle with an inlayed copper on the bottom of the bowl and end of the pestle?
Hi again Mike, according to one data sheet Carnauba wax which is in Crystal clear paste wax is toxic, then still another sheet saying that it is non toxic. So on the side of caution I'd have to go with yes it is toxic.
Beautiful :)
Beautiful Carl, my brother as just asked me to do one for him.
Thank you Dennis, these make great gifts too.
Your skew chisel, is it rounded or flat across the cutting edge. An excellent project, thanks Carl.
Carl I had a friend ask me to make her a Mortar and Pestle for her to use in her kitchen. My question would be what wood would be hard enough to withstand this type of use? Thanks William
Hi Charlie,
I was under the impression, that once the solvents in the paste wax have evaporated, it is deemed to be food safe. Please correct me if I'm wrong in thinking this.
Take care
Mike
I'm not sure about that, but with something like Walnut oil some people have allergies.
I sell some of them, but I give most away to family and friends.
In addition, it may just be the dryness of the wood that is causing a rattling noise.
No in this case he made it as decoration only, not food safe, the mix he used is paste wax and mineral oil. If you want to make one food safe, just replace the paste wax with bees wax.
Hi Carl. Love this video. You know, I did a little search on making a pestle and mortar and your video was the first to show...... awesome! I am a bit of a foodie as well as a woodie, and I have a few granite P&M but I have always wanted a wooden one, but the ones I have seen for sale are tiny and I really would like one thats pretty big. and the pestle I would like to be a bit longer than the normal ones, Because if you have extra length more energy is transfered to the spices that are to be crushed. Anyway, great vid as usual. greets!
chris randell Thank you very much Chris, I would like to see some pics once you get it done.
Hi William, Maple should hold up very well.
I like that Buddy. Desmond.
On the subject of food safe finishes, I was under the impression that almost all oil finishes were safe when dry.
Thank you Pete, I just have a good editing program.....LOL
Take care, Carl
Amazing video!
+TarasDoesDIY Thank you so much!
Carl Jacobson Haha my pleasure :). I'm gonna make one of these soon. Cheers for inspiration.
This is to stop the shavings flying up (in your face).If you don't do this you get covered in them (I know from experience).
you're bad ass!
LOL! thank you
Hi Carl, at the beginning here you extend your fingers over the work while roughing. Why do you do this?
just a quick question. Im a young turner and I'm always wondering what to turn. Where do you get your ideas?
Muy bueno.
Hi Don, his skew is slightly curved :)
Hi Carl ,,seem your lathe spindle has a wobble,, is that why we see you using a " Robust ",, Have a great 2019 ,, Regards Alf
Hey Alf, I don't think it had a wobble. It might of just been the wood, but yes i upgraded to the Robust :) Happy New Year!!
Hi Carl I really like your work, and their ingenuity am a Pole I have a question if you show how to make a nutcracker
I'm pretty new to turning and I seem to have the hardest time just getting the wood in the chuck, on the screw chuck, basically just mounted...do you have a video that goes through that step by step?
Hi Carl what paste do you use when sanding, at present I don't use anything other than dry paper?
Thanks
Mark UK
Hi John, I am always worried about using Walnut oil on things I give as gifts just in case someone has a nut allergy. Am I right to be concerned or is Walnut oil safe in this respect?
Thanks
Alan
Just wondering if it would be ok in ash, or beech. interested in your thoughts.I
I can watch you work all day long. You make it look so easy! I just received a request from my sister in law for a mortar and pestle. Any idea on wood species? Dried or green wood? Any special finishing tips? Also, what did you dip the sandpaper in for sanding? Thank you!
Thank you Tom! Dry hard Maple is a good wood for this project. I was sanding with paste wax and mineral oil. I would only use mineral oil as a finish for projects like this.
Carl Jacobson do you prefer any particular paste wax for friction sanding?
Покажите пожалуйста в следующем видео баночку с ваксой. Интересует ее название. Спасибо.
What do you do with all the projects you make?
What type of wood was the mortar and the pestle made out of? BTW love your channel thanks. Im working on an eagle project and i'm making Magic Wands like the ones you make for kids in hospitals, and your videos are showing me how to do it, and what stuff to use. Thanks.
Jonathan Meisman Thank you Jonathan, this is made out of Cocobolo. That's great! Good luck on your Eagle project.
Take care,
Carl
Nice piece. What was the paste you used when you did the sanding?
Thank you Phil! I sand with Howard or Walnut oil. Here's a video I did last week talking about it. th-cam.com/video/nDFBXMQL9WY/w-d-xo.html
hi, nice vid! - shouldnt the inside surface be left unlacquered/unvarnished...since edible stuff will be ground there?
I used a food safe finish :)
Нашел ваш рецепт. В видео про вазу с колбой. Спасибо
