Christmas Tree made from a Christmas Tree! Wood turning
Last year's Christmas Tree has been drying in the garage for 10 months. I was determined to reuse it somehow, so I figured why not make it into another Christmas Tree!
Thank you for watching.

Sapele and Beech Fruit Bowl - Wood turning
Просмотров 14 тыс.14 дней назад
I visited my local Rebuild site, which is set up to take surplus materials from construction sites and put them to good use. I found a piece of an old sapele door frame and had an idea! www.rebuildsite.co.uk The result is absolutely stunning! It measures 10 inch wide and just over 2 inches tall (approx 250mm x 55mm). It always amazes me what people throw away. It's not waste until we stop using...

    I love how adding a couple pieces of veneer give such a nice result. I am no expert by any stretch but aren't you "copping" out on the bottom? Seems at least you should sand the inside of the reverse tenon if not remount and finish off the bottom. Not criticizing at all, just curious what you could do? Beautiful work made to look easy

    I see a lot of interesting combinatios of woods, especially in bowl turing. I have to wonder how they will hold up over time ifthe woods are more or less "athletic". Athletic is a term used to talk about how muchwood moves, even after drying and curing, because of changing atmopheric conditions; not just heat and humidity but barometric pressure as well as ambient humidity if the bowl is sent to another place, say from Delaware to Arizona.

    • @RDMWoodturning

    That old door frame is getting a LOT of recycled mileage! While I LOVE sapele, I've not worked with beech at all. I LOVE your results. However, how hard is beech? I find that a harder maple AND paduak is actually really, really touchy (I had one of the two glueups, similar to yours in this video, catastrohpically shatter on the lathe) because the density of the two are so radically different...or at least that's my working theory. I mean, I did have a bad catch (which I rarely get anymore), but that could not possibly be the issue. After all, it can't be my fault, right?

    • @RDMWoodturning
      @RDMWoodturning 15 дней назад

      Beech is pretty hard, right up there with Ash. If I were to do it again I’d probably go for Cherry with the sapele, so that the density would be similar. No one enjoys a catch. Oak is the one wood that always gets me! 😀👍
