      @@philiplowery3703 Hi Philip, to answer your questions - the crotch is the part of the tree where two or more branches emanate from. The finished article is a hollow form, carved from a single Ash log which was consigned to the burn pile. It's a standalone piece of art, storage vessel or musical instrument 🪵😃👍

    Harry - my Grandfather was a wood turner of note whose work sold very well. I have happy memories of driving to northern New Brunswick to pick up hardwood for him to use in his shop. Some 40 years later you confound and delight me with what you can do.

    I did a lot of turning years back... a lot of years back and loved it but back a lot a years ago once more I moved out of the States and was on the road constantly in a lot of countries as a missionary. And so no way you can pack the tools alone with machines... but I still miss it. All saying this the joy I still get is some of these TH-cam videos and seeing the work and finished products. And this is now one of my favorites... as I do give many thumbs up very often but would give more than a few if I could. Thanks

      @HarrySmithShorts 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Elaine there is always a risk in cracking. However I keep in the workshop which is cold and the air is more damp than the house. Also storing in wood chips helps until it loses more moisture. So far so good . . . 🪵😃👍

      Hi capedmatauder, thanks for you comment and welcome to my channel. I have over 70 videos for some inspiration, so please consider subscribing. To answer you question, a crotch is a pocket located at the bottom of a point of connection, between two or more tree limbs or tree trunks. There are several forms and types of tree crotches that can be identified on various tree species. But we can all have a laugh... 🪵😃👍

    Beautiful work !! But, look at the vibration and strain the poor lathe went through at the beginning of this project, not to mention the possible danger of turning such a large, unbalanced chunk of tree. One would think that Mr. Smith would have done a bit more sawing to create a roughly balanced and more rounded shape first before putting it on the lathe? One of the first
    rules of machinery is when anything is spinning, which is "out-of-round", its only a matter of time before parts start flying in all directions. I.E., "The fan hits the sh*t, before the sh*t hits the fan".
    Regardless, Mr. Smith has created a beautiful and very unusual piece which shows the polished refinement of wood turning combined with a couple of raw natural spots. The combination of these two aspects is very creative, artistic, and most original. Beautiful work !!

      Hi Jennifer and thanks for watching and your comments.
      The piece was pretty well balanced however...
      Mr Smith didn't realise the rear leg lathe restraint had sheered from the floor and will be repaired this weekend. 🪵😃👍

      May I add - what a great critique, it's like an extract from woodturning monthly. 😃👍

      @@HarrySmithShorts Securing that leg on the lathe will certainly help, however the vibration from anything unbalanced will now go directly into the motor itself which wants to be isolated from vibration. Eventually you may need to replace the stator or the axles or bearings. I couldn't see from the video, but it appears that the motor is mounted on top
      directly to the chuck. If it were a bottom-mounted motor using a belt drive to the chuck, it would suffer far less vibration but it wouldn't have as much torque. In any event, machinery takes a lot of abuse, but as a suggestion, you may want to simply check how true the chuck spins with no load on it.
      If it has different speeds, you may want to check it visually on each speed. If it appears to be wobbling a bit, it will be an indication that the bearings or the internals of the motor itself are starting to go out-of-round, in which case its days are numbered and your work will be compromised. I've had the same problem with some machine motors, and it has often been difficult to find replacement parts.

      @HarrySmithWoodturning  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Stephan! I had similar issues when I first started turning with those types of chisels. Best thing to do is be gentle and cut while pulling back. If you push the chisel in its more likely to catch. Hope this helps 😄👍

    I turned a small cup from an ash limb 2 years ago, I finally got to finish it out tonight. It was harder than the high speed steel drill bits I was using. 😳
    I dunno what type of ash it is but hells bells this Irish Ash is tough stuff.
