There’s something relaxing about watching woodworking videos that so can’t accurately describe. I can’t even whittle a stick, but watching someone turn hunks of wood or other materials into beautiful things is just so relaxing to me.
@@JackMackWoodturning I certainly have and I’m always impressed at you being able to turn any material you work with into something surprisingly sturdy yet visually appealing.
@@JackMackWoodturning I do, actually. It’s likely due to the colors appealing to me greatly, but my favorites involve those with paper (even one fabric-related one if I recall correctly) and a bamboo nightlight.
Ohh cmon Jack when will you stop being so inventive? This one is a master class in thinking outside of the box, this symbolises patriotism in a lovely way. Cracking job. Top respect from the South East of England
Cheers buddy. I’m glad you think this one is inventive, I feel you will really enjoy some of the stuff I have coming your way in the next few months. 😉
@@raymondmcgee4491 yeah, Cooperstown's Baseball Hall of Fame. Very cool museum. Went a few times as a kid. Yeah, you definitely would NOT be able to use this bat for Baseball...or even Tee-ball. Would break after a couple of good hits lol.
I just recently found this channel. It amazes me how I never know what the final product is going to be. Like this one, "I'm like what is he doing?" then at 7:59 "oh, it's a bat"
❤🇬🇧👦 Thank yoi Jack ❤👨👩👧👦🌍 😋😍 Thata is absolutely beautiful weapon ❤ More to come 😁👏👏 😋 I like your new black gloves too and your list for your misses on your hand ❤🍻
@@JackMackWoodturning Jack darling I could swing a bat Golf Club hockey stick with my left and my right and you would be very impressed what I could do with a piece of paper that is a weapon too it Cuts ❤😋
Don’t see many people with their hand on the work piece while it’s spinning (for safety reasons I guess ) but I kinda like it , gives you a real sense of how fast the piece is spinning and how the finish is coming up since you can’t really see it. Nice job

Haha! Google automatically translated your comment to ‘traveller’ for some reason. I think the comment translate is still in beta. Nice bit of kit. Have you used one?
@@JackMackWoodturning Not really, but the bat is a beautiful piece. My son in law would love it. He IS a baseball fan, and used to pitch in high school
Lol. When you started to add the colored plywood, I said to myself, that would make an awesome baseball bat…. I was surprised that was you were working towards, and I was right, it is very awesome.
Now I’m very curious how this design would perform in an actual baseball setting. Also curious if any consideration was given to making the knob out of ply as well?
She strikes a ball very well indeed but is not intended for use. This is a decorative piece. I felt ply “knob” would have made the piece look sloppy and unconsidered, 3s is always a good rule for design, be it amount of colour or division of area.
Love the bat. Makes me wonder what it would have turned out like if you'd drilled the hole in each layer at a slight angle and built it that way. Would it look too much like a candy cane?
The only issue there would be the section where the handle meets the plywood.. it’s very easy to cut a 90 degree shoulder on the lathe.. any other angle there would be very tricky indeed, but doable all the same.
@@JackMackWoodturning I had the same thought about the handle fit-up too after making the comment. Just as well in the end, as it looks great as is. Maybe an idea for Christmas? LOL!! Nice work either way
@@JackMackWoodturning , you should try to get out here, so much history to do and see. I live just two miles outside of Boston and only takes minutes to get there.
Awesome. Think if you made that again. Then set the drill press at maybe a 30° tilt. That you'd get much tear-out of the plywood? That it would expose a lot more of the colors in the wood? Just a thought. Happy 4th. Oops, aren't you from the UK? Sorry 'bout our little uprising. ;-)

Great video jack! Donation on the way bro! Keep making those vids 👀
Thanks again man. Much appreciated 😊👍🏻
Keep smashing it mate. I’ll donate if I can work it out. Us old folk don’t mix well with technology 😅
I'll be sending a small donation with my next paycheck in a few days!

That’s so nice to hear! Have you watched many of my other videos on the channel?
@@JackMackWoodturning I certainly have and I’m always impressed at you being able to turn any material you work with into something surprisingly sturdy yet visually appealing.
Ahh cheers man, have any favourite videos?
@@JackMackWoodturning I do, actually. It’s likely due to the colors appealing to me greatly, but my favorites involve those with paper (even one fabric-related one if I recall correctly) and a bamboo nightlight.
I grew up in an age where we were allowed to use a wood lathe in middle school wood shop class. I still have the bat that I made. Miss them days.
Do you still work with wood?
@@JackMackWoodturning Only here or there. Went Condo. I am starting to whittle.
These are all skills that need to be reintroduced back into our schools. Sadly it's one of the 1st programs to get cut out of school budgets.
Yes but now we’re safe… inept, lazy and only capable of operating a smartphone….. but safe.
@@mattnicholas9842 good one!!
Uncle Sam appreciates your patriotic contribution… Thank you Jack!
🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 Happy 4’th of July! 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
No problem at all! I couldn’t have done it without you. 👍🏻😊🙏
I love you because you remind me of the lathe guy on US PBS television. He never got into art pieces. It was mostly boxes and bowls.
Haha! Nice one. Thanks for watching Cynthia 🙂
I'M TRULY IMPRESSED. GREAT LOOKING BAT. A JOB WELL DONE JACK! 🇺🇸✌️👍🏻
Thanks so much buddy! Where abouts in the states are you from? 😊
Ohh cmon Jack when will you stop being so inventive? This one is a master class in thinking outside of the box, this symbolises patriotism in a lovely way. Cracking job. Top respect from the South East of England
Cheers buddy. I’m glad you think this one is inventive, I feel you will really enjoy some of the stuff I have coming your way in the next few months. 😉
Being at my lathe is therapeutic for me. Every pen I make is time spent working on me. That’s a great looking bat.
Thanks bud.
That's great!!!
it'd be a great gift for someone that played!!!
The coolest baseball bat I've ever seen that I would be absolutely heartbroken to see anybody actually use.
"That belongs in a museum!"
Thanks FP. Is there a museum for BB’s?
Cooperstown perhaps?
Great quote at the end of your comment gave me a good chuckle

Mr. Mack, I think you stay up all night thinking about your next project 🤔 😏. Another job well done 👍 👍 👍
Haha.. I do get a little sleep. 😉
This is one of the greatest pieces of art I think I've ever seen.
Thanks Todd. Are you a baseball fan?
I love baseball but don't get to watch as much as I'd like. I'm an OTR truck driver.

Much love from the UK 🇬🇧
I. Love. It. ❤ 😊
Rainbow stick. beautiful creation.
Nice one Yakub. Good name! I like it 😊👍🏻

Very Nice Baseball Bat
Thanks man. You ever made one?

Beautiful work. Interesting concept. It screams America.
Are you from the US?

I don't know so much about stars and stripes, look like some Christmas candy.
Making you hungry?
A Number One Brother; handsomest bat I've ever seen!
Nice one EG. I must say, Iv’e never heard a bat called handsome but I like it. Reckon you could hit a home run with it? 🤣
@@JackMackWoodturning, the bat is too masculine to be pretty, gorgeous or beautiful; and you already hit the homerun.
Haha thanks man 🙏 😊
Sos muy ingenioso!!!!👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing your video.
Thank you for watching buddy
Perfect nightstick
What’s a Night stick ?
Nice steady rest.
Thanks buddy 😉 I made it as soon as I got to work after your prompt.. it’s been a long time coming, but I couldn’t have made the bat without one
I want to buy that bat lol so cool!!!
It’s not available for sale. Sorry

I'm in the UK but I guessed it was a BBB. Beautiful job!
What’s a BBB
@@JackMackWoodturning Haha...a Base Ball Bat :-) I was being lazy.

Thanks. Glad you like it. I’m not sure how long it would last in the felid 🤣

Haha that’s a great idea 💡 👌🏻😊
Nice looking bat!
Thanks bud
@@JackMackWoodturning hey no problem 😀
Amazing
I bet you can make an awesome billiards cue.
It is on my list actually 😊

Well Done that looks cool ❤️🇦🇺
Baseball fan?
First and only thing I ever made was a bat, that was in shop class in school!
Do you still have it?
@@JackMackWoodturning yes I do 👍🏼
Like 👍👍👍👍
That looks like a fun project. Nicely done.
Thanks doug

@@JackMackWoodturning , Hell yeah, and the rest of our Teams. The Sox won another game. Boston is the place to be.
Certainly sounds like it! 🥳🥳🥳

I will absolutely add it to the bucket list 👌🏻👍🏻😊
Cool bat Jack.
Happy 4th.
Nice one Clint. You too man. You partying?

Another cracking job Jack , dunno where you get your ideas but it’s compulsive viewing … keep on creating son 👍🏴
Thanks Jay. I’ll try my best 😊👍🏻
Wow...and all this time I thought it was going to be a bed post or a marital aid.
Now you’ve got me thinking 💭 🤔
you do some very nice work....
Thanks man. You reckon you could hit a home run with it?
@@JackMackWoodturning probably,, I'm not very good at sport's,, would make a great commemorative bat
Nice idea!
Nice one man. Happy 4th! 🥳
@@JackMackWoodturning here, it is the 14th of July ;)
Say what

It may snap? 🤣
Well that certainly is a decorative, attitude adjustment stick.
Attitude adjustment? 🤣
Fantastic!
Nice one S.O.D. You off out in the RV for the 4th?
I wish. Had to sell it. Sure do miss it.😬

It’s all in the description 😊👍🏻
I know it’s not much.. Every little helps right? 🙂
It most absolutely does my friend! 😁🙏👍🏻
Love love love it !!
Thanks. You think you could hit a home run with it ?
@@JackMackWoodturning too nice , to hit balls with
Just decorative then?
@@JackMackWoodturning definitely!!
Was that epoxy used to glue the birch ply onto the bat? Very slow setting it seems as it would catalyze in the cup during that time.
Yeah.. the open time on this particular resin is 40 mins which was more than enough time to to the glue up
Hi Jack, special for 4th July, as usual it looks fantastic, cooking hot here 40 deg. Cheers Will.
40! Wowzers. I would melt. Hope you have plenty cold beer and some air con 🤣
