Always like watching you work on the lathe. It looks like fun. I have used both wood and metal back many years ago when I was in school. Liked it then. I don't know where I would put one. Maybe my wife's side of the garage. Don't think so I would be sleeping there. Just happened this week I was working on an old monkey wrench that has a wood handle in bad shape. That was the first thing my son said we need a lathe. Stay safe and healthy my friend. Thanks
Finial, that's a word and a thing I had never heard of!! That billy club turned out really nice, there definitely is something magical about how an object comes to life on a lathe!! Great episode John, full of good stuff!! Thanks for sharing and take care!!
That short club is great. Would fit perfectly in a book bag or between the front seats of your car. Never know when somebody will get the idea to try and separate you from your personal property.
I enjoyed the video today my friend. I love working on the lathe. Maybe the club making comes from where you may have to go at nighttime. Dark alleys and such. Hope you are doing well and staying safe my friend.
I definitely need a lathe (or two actually). Space is such an issue. Now I saw a wood lathe you could power with your (corded) drill, now I know that's not gonna be the most perfect lathe but might be nice to get started with and it's very compact. Hope you'll have a great weekend! I'm having three days off!
I love the lathe work mate. You’re so good at it. I had a lathe, just a cheap thing from Bunnings here in Australia, equivalent to your Harbour Freight I assume. Had to sell it as it took up too much room in my little shed. But I bought a 7x16 metal lathe which is more compact, a damn sight heavier, but a lot more useful for my restoration work. Still at times like this I miss my wood lathe. Love your dedication mate. Finishing in the shop at 1am and then still going upstairs to edit the work to post, you’re a sucker for punishment pal.🇦🇺😊
great video. i’ve been in the market for a lathe for a long time. i took and intro to machine tools class at my local community college and really grew to love the lathe projects. Of course there we only did metal but i really wanna try my hand at a wood lathe. Such an expensive up front cost though. keeping my eyes peeled on the used market though. Great Video!
You can also get pretty nice finials on the ends of curtail poles. I’d be interested in seeing you do two the same, whether you have some sort of duplication jig as some people use for duplicating chair legs etc or whether you lathe the two ends with a central shared area and sever them after the lathe work ?
Love to see you make things for your Sis...She will always remember who made it ...every time she looks up. Great video as always. It’s also hot in Cullman, Al.. can’t wait until August when it’s 105 🥵
I started laughing when I saw it was going to be a club, the funny thing is that was one of my earliest lathe projects too.......Not sure what it is but there's just something about a club that's fun.......I always give em away as gifts, I actually never kept one for myself yet.
When you cut the piece for the transition, the first thought which entered my head was "Scoutcrafter needs a Rose Engine lathe". You would have fun being able to turn shapes even square shapes on such a machine. I hope your sister likes one of these. I am not good at predicting a persons reaction to a wood project, flat or turning. Often people say they have no opinion - until you show them something and then they either like it or dislike it. Good to have saved the wooden bed post leg. A very nice piece. Dave.
Back in Wisconsin we called clubs like that "Muskie Thumpers". Used to sedate a thirty inch muskie once in the boat, they can do a lot of damage once out of the water!
I heard Mr. Softee in the background. I remember those trucks when I was a kid. I can still taste the Vanilla cone with sprinkles. I love that top! Actually, all that turning looks great. You are going to make me spend money on lathe now! Any suggestions on a first lathe?
Ha ha I thought the wheels were cookies when you first pulled the bag out They “wood’ have been a bit to crunchy ha ha ,man I still haven’t got that lathe Yet I’m still working on what one to get you did a great job on those projects Great video scout god bless take care have a great weekend 🗽🇺🇸🇳🇿👏👍🙏
Great thing about reusing turnings is they should always cut nice on the lathe. I'm feeling for ya with the temps. It's only supposed to be 106 here today. But it's a dry heat🥵
Looks like summer hit there with a BANG to the thermometer! Rain here again and I was going to make up some 50/50 but the rain held off and now I'm inside and the 50/50 stuff is outside.Maybe one day next week. Unc already is putting it to the test. And since we have WD-40 I think SC-50/50 would be a legit deal! Nice turnings but I better remain as calm as I can and not get anything that spins. Spinning things tend to fly and fly apart here. Happy weekend, John CS and GBWYou!
@@ScoutCrafter I still think we ought to call it SC-50/50! And I sure understand about thinking how our Kroil cans ought to be in a safe somewhere. I can just get it when they run specials. I have a small can of Aerokroil and a waterproofer (from Cheryl's step-dad) and 2 big ones I got last special with silicone in it. I've got the feeling the SC-50/50 WILL bve the go to and penetrant of choice! A-PLUS, John!
Hi John, I have been looking through your videos for a metal lathe tutorial ie the sort of thing to look for and maybe what it needs to do and full demo on the functionality for this type of hobby but I can not find one, do you have one? If not would you consider doing one maybe showing the basics and what to look for in a lathe and roughly how much you would need to spend. I have tried looking on TH-cam but I can not be doing with all the hype and waffle that a lot of people have to say and do before they get on with the job, where as you just seem to get on with it and tell it how people can understand. Many thanks Michael From the UK 👍👍
Top notch as always Scout you always knock it out of the park. 85 very nice haha you can have my 100 degree weather lol. Hope you and everyone else has a great weekend. It's time to go upstate and fish and look at stars :D. Thanks Scout be safe everyone. It was a billy club version of Lucille haha. "You know my favorite part. Here's your sisters barn before we started. And we're calling your sisters barn done" Sorry had to lol :P
Scoutcrafter getting ready to riot!! 😂 awesome video, I might get an old mini lathe tomorrow.. I don’t need the full size one and could do with the space! Thanks for the great content
I think I heard Mr. Softee in the background on the intro. I remember that truck from when I was a kid. I can almost taste the Vanilla soft serve with sprinkles. That top looks awesome. All of those turning projects are making me want to buy a lathe. Any ideas or suggestions on what to buy?
When I was working I had access to a large (15x50) Jet Lathe. It came in handy for larger projects but the problem with big lathes is they are not as easy to work with. I Love my 7x10 but I think my ideal Lathe size would be 9x36. Variable speed with quick change gearbox... I’m so glad you are enjoying your Lathe!!! Thanks! 😃👍
For some reason, all I could think of as the last piece of bedpost was being turned (no pun intended) into a mini baseball bat was The Flintstones. For a few seconds early on I thought you might make it into a carving mallet
Really neat we had em on top of our st.sign posts at work.use to have to replace em all the time ether taken or like said they rot. The screw u mentioned always rotted on them. Hot! What happened M.t..A John predicting A.C by next week.
Interesting like how the acorn came out. I have a question I'm cleaning his old channel lock tools any recommendation on how bring back the blue in the handles. Thanks.
I use the Walmart brand brake cleaner, spray on a rag and wipe clean. It will eat screwdriver handles and a lot of plastics, so be careful if you don't use GooP.
Couple questions, how is your grizzly lathe would you recommend it and would you have a recommendation on a set of allen keys. Im looking for a good set but cant decide between handled or unhandled type.
Hi Jack- I have a Harbor Freight Lathe and I like it but Little Machine Shop .com has lots of information on the difference between all of them. As for Hex keys get a set of Bondhus! Best made!!!
Got to ask, John. Were you missing your buses? I noticed in the opening a bus just sitting across the street. My question is, did you buy it or “borrow” it due to pandemic boredom?
Whatever is wrong with you is wrong with me too. I have a collection of clubs and bats too. I like all the finials you turned. It would be hard to choose. Take care. 👍🏼
How much would you want for a club like that I have been in law enforcement for years but all this modern stuff doesn't cut it I would hang it on my wall in the game room
You are leading up to making a paddle! th-cam.com/video/bIZoVO8ZyyQ/w-d-xo.html Your sister would benefit by having a Bat House on the barn. Ask any farmer ... or Batman! =P

Good idea on repurposing the bedpost. Probably excellent hardwood. The club would be a good chisel mallet. Thanks
It is a treat to watch the wood take shape on the lathe. Great stuff! Cheers

Nice work on the lathes. I need to get back to some projects on mine. Been too long. Love the top.
Great job as usual. I always have one of those persuaders in my van when I get a job in the city.
I really liked the spinning top and the little club.Those acorn finials look real nice.
cheers mate.

I love my mini lathe- You are smart getting the 7x16, mine is only 7x10! 😃👍
Looks good 👍. There is such a thing as over trimming. What you did looks good. Signed, a carpenter..........
The New New Yankee Work Shop featuring Scoutcrafter! Great looking projects. 👍
The bus out front of your house, Scoutcrafter mobile work shop... 🤔😉
Rob- I used to drive that bus!
Nice work. Thanks. Enjoy your weekend!

Zack- You are so right- Lathes are pricey!!! 😃👍
Great job, John. The lathe looks so satisfying. One day that will be me. In the meantime, keep tapping into your brain for our enjoyment. Jim
Fantastic, your skills in the lathe puts all of us to shame
I have some solid walnut pieces similar to those you have. Nice projects
You can also get pretty nice finials on the ends of curtail poles.
I’d be interested in seeing you do two the same, whether you have some sort of duplication jig as some people use for duplicating chair legs etc or whether you lathe the two ends with a central shared area and sever them after the lathe work ?
I think she’ll like them. Always like your ideas for making things.
..good video, have a great weekend...keep safe...
Love to see you make things for your Sis...She will always remember who made it ...every time she looks up.
Great video as always. It’s also hot in Cullman, Al.. can’t wait until August when it’s 105 🥵
Thanks ScoutCrafter it was a very legible video. Love that persuader!
85 sounds great. 111 here in the Phoenix area today.. Great video as always.

Dave- She likes the 3rd one. You’re right, you can never figure out what some people like.. 😃
Back in Wisconsin we called clubs like that "Muskie Thumpers". Used to sedate a thirty inch muskie once in the boat, they can do a lot of damage once out of the water!
The club reminded me of the Flintstones bam bam haha nice work as always
I heard Mr. Softee in the background. I remember those trucks when I was a kid. I can still taste the Vanilla cone with sprinkles.
I love that top! Actually, all that turning looks great. You are going to make me spend money on lathe now! Any suggestions on a first lathe?
I like the black&white!
Love the woodturning keep up the food work
I dig the club - "how many lumps?"
“I like a whole lot of lumps!”
Ha ha I thought the wheels were cookies when you first pulled the bag out
They “wood’ have been a bit to crunchy ha ha ,man I still haven’t got that lathe
Yet I’m still working on what one to get you did a great job on those projects
Great video scout god bless take care have a great weekend 🗽🇺🇸🇳🇿👏👍🙏
Your talents in all things makes me envious and drool. I'm trying to learn and catch up. Maybe in 300 years I might achieve it. :-)
Milton- The fun is just getting into the shop and fooling around. No stress down there! 😃👍
Great thing about reusing turnings is they should always cut nice on the lathe. I'm feeling for ya with the temps. It's only supposed to be 106 here today. But it's a dry heat🥵
Bless your heart. Dry heat. Heat was just heat 2 me. I just slobber more when the humidity is up. Recycling I suppose.
In England, people normally put a pointy spike on the upper end of where your finial is.
Traditionally, so that the Devil can't sit on it.
Won't work on politicians. Their butt can land on a sewing needle with no penetration from sitting on everybody's well being all this time.

Lewie- I have tried at least a dozen penetrating fluids and the 50/50 is my favorite! Plus it’s very economical so you reach for it right away! 😃👍

God bless you family and friends and everyone beautiful acorns and that could be a little wooden mallet.👍👍👍👍
Love the "persuader " lol

Nice looking project's 👍
Always making bats too! Lol now I need to make little baseballs
That's one fancy tire thumper.
another Great video as always!!! God bless you my friend!! Love from CYPRUS !!!
Thanks Dino!!!!!!!!
Like the little club, could be a good mallet?

Let us know which one she chooses John! Nice job on these. And a beautiful mallet.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lee She liked the one at the far right, number 3 the simple one! =D
Nice wood work 👌👌👌

Scoutcrafter getting ready to riot!! 😂 awesome video, I might get an old mini lathe tomorrow.. I don’t need the full size one and could do with the space! Thanks for the great content
LOL I have some longer distance riot gear! =D
wow very big bed leg sir... :D Awesome job as always...
I think I heard Mr. Softee in the background on the intro. I remember that truck from when I was a kid. I can almost taste the Vanilla soft serve with sprinkles.
That top looks awesome. All of those turning projects are making me want to buy a lathe. Any ideas or suggestions on what to buy?
Both wood and metal turning is so much fun. The small Jet Lathe is so nice but they are all pricey... 😃👍
Great job agin,
I remember a top I had as a child that would walk down a string.
👍Well job, seems pretty strong
You and I are the same, we see a bludgeoning tool in anything we see, haha.
Just got off my metal lathe :-) i love playing about on it,trouble is i've only had it since September and i'm already wishing i had a bigger one!!
When I was working I had access to a large (15x50) Jet Lathe. It came in handy for larger projects but the problem with big lathes is they are not as easy to work with. I Love my 7x10 but I think my ideal Lathe size would be 9x36. Variable speed with quick change gearbox... I’m so glad you are enjoying your Lathe!!! Thanks! 😃👍
Ahhh! Pete Puma! But I Don't want no tea!! AS for the rest.....Sheer Genius !
Yes it is a good video. Good job working on the lathe.
It's great to have fun think it's something we all need right now
Would love a lathe, I would never come in the house. Problem is I have no room. I guess I have to wait until I get my barn when I retire.
Awesome 👍🇺🇸
Gingerbread, I always liked that, very high maintance, I'm pretty sure the acorn means Spiritual Knowlage or some turn of the century hippy thing...
You’re so right, outdoors is so hard on paint! 😃👍
It’s a fish knocker for those big ones. LOL
For some reason, all I could think of as the last piece of bedpost was being turned (no pun intended) into a mini baseball bat was The Flintstones. For a few seconds early on I thought you might make it into a carving mallet

Interesting like how the acorn came out. I have a question I'm cleaning his old channel lock tools any recommendation on how bring back the blue in the handles. Thanks.
John- I use GooP hand cleaner! Works great! 😃👍
I use the Walmart brand brake cleaner, spray on a rag and wipe clean. It will eat screwdriver handles and a lot of plastics, so be careful if you don't use GooP.
I just noticed something about you ... You're a real showoff with your lathe lol great work john.
My goal is to get everyone to buy a lathe!!!
@@ScoutCrafter yeah well everyone probably will because you make it look so easy.
What kind of wood was that bedpost made of? Looks like you could have made either a juggling pin or excersize pin out of that leftover piece.
This wood was probably pine glue ups... =D
An other great video...thanks
😂 you can have contests to see who can spin the longest, ya in 1920 👍🏼
Couple questions, how is your grizzly lathe would you recommend it and would you have a recommendation on a set of allen keys. Im looking for a good set but cant decide between handled or unhandled type.

Got to ask, John. Were you missing your buses? I noticed in the opening a bus just sitting across the street. My question is, did you buy it or “borrow” it due to pandemic boredom?
Tire thumper for semi drivers. That at least is what I would tell the officer that is searching my truck. Wink, wink. Have a good weekend.
Wouldn't you want the design for the top on top so you could see it while it spinned?
I make all different designs, One day I will pull out my collection of tops I made over the years!
Whatever is wrong with you is wrong with me too. I have a collection of clubs and bats too. I like all the finials you turned. It would be hard to choose. Take care. 👍🏼
