Woodturning - You Can Never Go Wrong with Cookies
Welcome to this week's woodturning video. In this week's video, I turn a trio of bud vases from green locust wood cookies cut from a branch found in a local park. These are a fun project for turning green wood as they will warp as they dry. The thinner the walls and taller the vase the more they will move as they dry.
Thanks for watching.

Woodturning Salvaged Locust - Mistakes Were Made
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.9 месяцев назад
Welcome to this week's woodturning video. In this video I attempt to make a green-turned bowl with handles out of some salvaged locust wood that I found being taken down in a local park. I wouldn't normally upload a video where I make this many mistakes but I think it's important to show that not every project can be a success. Thanks for watching. #woodturning #turning #salvagedwood #woodworki...
Woodturning Project | Turning a Northern Lights Inspired Burl and Epoxy Pepper Grinder

This was our first time experimenting with this type of epoxy pour and we are really really happy with the results.

The goal color was to match the pale blue stone in the ring that this project would be holding. Most wo...

  • @scottstubberud1137
    @scottstubberud1137 5 месяцев назад

    Those turned out great, but those were turned in a cross grain orientation and you used a spindle roughing gouge to make it round. That is extremely dangerous as it presents end grain directly into a tool that is made for peeling cuts on spindle work only! You had some catches that you got away with because the piece spun but if it would have been secured in a chuck say, it likely flies off the chuck or worse the spindle roughing gouge breaks where the tang enters the handle. A roughing gouge is not made strong enough for that type of catch which can grab the gouge on the end grain and flip it down and make the handle raise violently and if you have a death grip on it, it can break at the tang going into the handle and depending on how it rattles around, it can come flying back at you and take out say your jugular. Not kidding. People have actually died in that exact manner. The roughing gouge looks stout and it is outside the handle but look at how narrow it gets entering the handle, it is quite narrow and high speed steel can be brittle. I’m nearly certain that you have it in a death grip turning that cross grain (because I did it unknowingly myself) and truly it can snap off on a bad catch! Also the roughing gouge presents a lot of edge into the wood and if you aren’t doing a peeling cut or if you cut uphill into the grain much at all you will catch. The SRG is made for only spindle turning with the grain parallel to the axis of the lathe. Even a spindle with gnarly knots are a no no. I’m telling you this not to be a know it all, but to save you, or someone who watches you use it in this manner and copies you, from a severe injury. There should be a warning on the roughing gouge to never use it on cross grain or knotty spindles. Please if you can add a warning to others in a revised video including this warning. I was guilty of doing this same thing when I was first learning and it could have been bad. Also using it on non-round cross grain will beat you up severely and impart some major repetitive impacts on your joints which will age you big time. Take it from an old man that you want to protect your joints! I did love the vases. The wood was spectacular. Try microwaving one to accentuate the warping if it is greenish wood. Richard Raffan does this regularly and it’s a cool effect. They will curve sideways! Please be careful and reconsider how you turn these type projects. There’s many alternatives that are much easier and safer. I’m a lifelong woodworker and quite experienced turner and I know you will enjoy the alternatives more and you will be safer. Take care, Scott

    Hay dude I am a home distiller and me and a few other people can't afford oak barrels so we have been thinking about making oak lids for mason jars,they would have to fit inside the jars a bit and be chared on the inside peace.we would leave it on its side to get the same airflow effects as a barrel..... anyway was just thinking it's a awesome idea seen heaps of people thinking about it ,so if someone got into it and had the right marketing they could make alot of money. If you're in the states you could send a few sample ones to channels like stilln the clear, stillin old-school, and Manny more ,you could say it's a pore man's barrel getting the word out .
