Turning a bowl on a pole lathe

I did a two day course where I turned a bowl on a pole lathe. This kind of lathe dates at least back to the iron age and lived on to the 1930s.

    I am amazed. You really have high quality, high production, a wonderful string making contraption! I’m a 3rd generation Canadian just teaching myself cord making from cedar bark; so I can share with my native girlfriend, the most important skill of all, String Making! You have that mastered; thanks for sharing. Your friend, Brian ✅🙂🇨🇦

    It is my understanding that in ropemaking "countertwisting" is important, which is twisting the rope together in the opposite direction that you twist the individual yarns. Pretty much anywhere you look up rope mentions this countertwist and its importance. Yet this method and making rope with a spinning club seem to work even though they spin the whole rope and the individual yarns the same way. Is countertwist not that important? Or is this type of rope weaker in some way than countertwisted rope? Even if it is weaker it's still a very useful method for making rope since you can do it alone and indoors. Also the fact that you can even start with fibers and feed them in as you go which seems harder/impossible using the rope walk method which I've only really seen used starting from yarns, I've never seen it used to wind the yarns themselves.

    • @BrinkmanCrafts
      @BrinkmanCrafts 18 дней назад

      @@JamesLaChance1 yes, counter twisting as you call it is very important as the rope would otherwise unravel. This rope has S twisted strands while the rope is Z twisted.

    • @JamesLaChance1
      @JamesLaChance1 18 дней назад

      So like at 1:54 when you have the two sections of fibers; aren't the two sections being twisted counterclockwise individually and twisted counterclockwise together? I do see what you mean at around 5:47 now though. I saw the machine still turning counterclockwise and was confused but now I see that that's twisting the strands together clockwise since you're working your way back towards the machine. And then that makes sense why you turn the machine clockwise when you add in the third strand and are working back towards yourself.

      @BrinkmanCrafts 18 дней назад

      @@JamesLaChance1 yes, it's quite confusing until you really look into it! When doing it yourself it all feels natural which way you should turn as it just simply does not work if you twist the wrong way

    What would you use a grommet like this for historically? I think of grommets as that metal circle on the edge of a tarp, would you attach one of these for a similar use?

    • @BrinkmanCrafts

      Yes, I would say that these would be used on the edges of for example tarps and sails.
