Another fun looking project Andy. Sometimes simple is elegant.
Hi Mark...
Thank you... it was fun to make...
Ahhh simple is what I do best...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
He would look really good with a top hat, Andy. That way his head would not look quite so bald. 😄
Hi Rodney...
Yes... great idea.. next one will have a top hat...
I never realised that he looked bald... Haha...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Very nice, Andy. Next time perhaps a small hole in the bird's back filled with toothpicks to simulate a tail so that it actually becomes more than an art piece -- a toothpick holder.
Hi Walship...
Thank you very much...
Yes .. great idea.. I have seen this done and it looks good...
Another suggestion was a hole on the back to make an egg cup...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Very clever , and different , I like it , makes a nice change from the usual , turning projects !

Very Clever. Greetings from Ireland
Hi William...
Thank you very much...
Take care my friend and all the best from Andy
Love that bird, well done, Andy 👍🏻👏🏻😄 I am always amazed by the effects that you get out of the off centre turnings… and I am always a bit worried for your knuckles too 🤪 but all went well and out came a fantastic looking bird 👍🏻😎 I don’t know what it is with me today, but I would put a couple of 🪶 feathers on the back of his head, that would make him look like an ostrich 😂 Sorry, it is carnival season here, seems to work subconsciously because I am not into carnival and costumes at all 🤪 Have a great and relaxing evening, Andy 🎉👋🏻😉👋🏻 Byeeee, Jude
Hi again Jude...
I'm glad that you liked the little bird as well... I enjoyed making it.. nice and simple...
Although I did do a practice one before filming and made a right royal mess of it ... Haha...
With this off centre turning being small it wasn't too bad... the larger ones are a bit scary...
What.. just a couple of feathers... no scarf... no sun glasses... Haha... just kidding...
Ahh Carnival season... I'm with you on that one... there has been a carnival ever year in Camelford and since we moved down here I have never seen it.. not once...
Thank you very much... as always...
You have a lovely week ahead...
Take care Jude.. all the best.....Andy 👋😉👋
Good looking bird. Gonna have to make one for my great granddaughter. I enjoy watching your videos. You do fantastic work
Hi Denvermiller...
Thank you...
I hope that you will enjoy making yours and I'm sure that your great granddaughter will love it...
I'm glad that you are enjoying my videos...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Well another great little project Andy well done 👍😊
Hi Wayne...
Thank you very much.. I'm glad that you liked it 👍😉
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
@@AndysCornishCreations maybe you could make a video on how you sharpen your chisels because they always look sharpened which I never seem to be able to achieve with mine 👍
Cute little bird. Looks like a fun project. I may do a few myself for my craft booth. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Dennis...
Thank you..
This was fun to make and quite simple once you get your head around it...
My 1st attempt was a bit of a disaster but this was the 2nd one..
They are fairly quick to make so yes.. a good craft fair project...
I hope that you will enjoy making yours...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Great little project Andy, nicely done!
Hi Gary...

Merci boucoup... je suis content que ça t'ai plu...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
@@AndysCornishCreations merci my friend 👍👏👋
Fun piece. I’ve seen a few where they drilled a hole where the tail would be then placing toothpicks in the hole. Good job!
Hi Doug...
Thank you...
Ahh yes.. I have seen those.. great idea...
Someone also suggested turning a hole on its back and using it for an egg cup...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
That is cute and a very nice idea. Thank you for sharing Andy
Hi John...

Howdy Andy. You make that look so easy. Great job. Thank you

It is an easy project once you get your head around it...

Another great project Andy all caught up now just watched this one and the one before, we went away to Norfolk Island for a weeks holiday and 3 days into our holiday the Island was hit by Cyclone Gabrielle so we had to bunker down for about 3 days until it had passed, no power or internet and blowing an absolute gale, not much fun, so doing the catch up on your videos now. Thanks again.
All the best to you.
Regards Jim
Hi Jim...
Oh dear.. that sounds like really bad luck... I hope that you managed to get some enjoyment from your holiday... and I'm releaved that you weren't harmed .. another RUclips friend from New Zealand was describing what the cyclone was like around him and it sounded terrible...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Lovely job Andy.
Hi Bob...
Thank you so much...

Hi Billy...
Thank you very much as always...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
I see quite a cute little duckling! The expressive eyes you gave it make it very endearing. I can almost hear it quacking!
Thank you for sharing this lovely little one.
Take care 🙏🏻
Hi Gwynn...
Thank you very much... this was a fun little project to make...
My pleasure.. I'm glad that you liked it...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Nice, Andy. Just adding to your menagerie. I haven't made any of your animals since I don't have a lathe or do any turning.
Bill
Hi Bill...
Thank you..
Yes... while I can keep coming up with ideas I will keep making these little projects...
I'm just glad that you are still enjoying my videos...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy, Great video, but I am surprised that you did not use your modified spanner to turn the dowel on the birds beak
Hi Pu1gcerda...
Thank you very much...
I'm pretty sure that I did use the spanner trick but messed up with the filming...Haha..
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Very nice! I might have to try one of these.
Hi Dana...
Thank you very much...
I would suggest trying a piece of scrap wood 1st...
It's a good way to get your head around the task...
I hope that you will enjoy making yours...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy, enjoyed watching this one. Any tips on orientating the grain, noticed your birds face was spot on for the centre alignment. Cheers, Steve
Hi Steve...
I'm glad that you have enjoyed watching this video...
Because it's a log the grain goes down the length of the wood...
I picked a log that was just a little bit wider in diameter than I wanted the diameter of the bird to be so there wasn't much wood to remove...
The 1st hole has to go in the centre of the end ...
The 2nd hole goes 20mm away from the centre in any direction.. doesn't matter...
The face of the bird looks aligned because it faces directly away from the centre of the log...
I hope that all made sense... Haha..
Enjoy making yours...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy..
Some dimensions would be great for your animal turnings as it's a little hard to estimate the different pieces and their sizes. Thank you
That is seriously cute Andy. Could be made in to an egg cup? If there is room at the back.
Hi Sue...
Haha.. I'm glad that you liked it...
Yes.. why not... I would make it shorter and fatter..
Then put an extra hole in the bottom opposite the other so that you can turn an off centre hole for your egg..
Great idea Sue..
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Andy, your little critters are a joy to make!! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Ted...
I'm glad that you have made some and enjoyed it...
My pleasure...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Thank you Andy so enjoyable and informative .Any news on your unfortunate fire.Hope you can get working again soon.
@@terencewearing thank you.. I'm glad that you enjoyed this one...
I'm still waiting for the insurance before I can do much so it may take some time...
I am a bit lost without my workshop...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy. Looks like a very fun project. The bird is awesome. Thank you for sharing. Take care my friend. Cheers, Rob 😊
Hi Rob...
Thank you so much...
This was a fun project to make and really easy once you get your head around it...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
My grandchildren are enjoying your creations as much as I have enjoyed making them,thank you
How do I send you a coffee?
Tim
Hi Tim...
It's lovely to hear that you have made some of my projects for your Grandchildren...
I bet that they cherish them especially as they were made by their Grandad...
that's very kind of you ... there is a link in the video description... click "more" to see it...
Perhaps you could send me a picture of your Creations...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy you really are clever and the way you started the bird was brilliant. You really are a masterwoodturner and you always come up with fabulous ideas and turn brilliant items. I love the duck it is beautiful and the wood has lovely grain and colour. Thank you for a great video Amanda xx
Hi Amanda...
Thank you again for your very kind comments...
This was quite a simple project.. although I did mess up my practice piece... it's always good to practice on a bit of cheap lumber...
I'm really pleased that you liked it...
My pleasure Amanda...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy xx
Hi Andy
He looks a bit sad to me... I think it's the pen in the holes. They look like he has eyebrows going down.... but he is still very cute. Coming down to Bude next weekend!
Hi Jenny...
Haha.. yes he does look a bit sad...
Glad that you still think that he's cute...
I'm working in Bude at the moment doing a loft conversion...
I hope that you enjoy your visit and that the weather is kind to you...
The Brendon arms is a good pub to visit.. nice food...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Maybe some fine feathers, wood strip, drill hole, glue in.. it needs something..
Hi Paint.....
You're the second person to suggest sticking a feather in it...🤔
Take care my friend and all the best from Andy
Great job, Andy. I love these little animals you make👍🏻
Hi Mike...
Thank you so much...
I hope that I can keep coming up with new ideas because I really enjoy making them...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
I've never tried an off center project. I must give it a try. You make it look easy. Question: do you make your own abrasive paste?
Hi there...
This is a great way to try off centre turning... very simple in principle.. although I did mess up my practice piece... Haha..
Yes I do make my own abrasive paste... one part diatomaceous earth.. one part beeswax and 4 parts mineral oil... by weight...
Melt the beeswax and mineral oil in a pan ..add diatomaceous earth.. mix thoroughly... keep mixing while it cools down so that the diatomaceous earth doesn't settle to the bottom..
You can cool it faster by holding the pan in cold water...while it is still soft put it into pots...
I have never bought any so I don't know how mine compares with them...
Hope this helps...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Very clever idea Andy! Really like this one. Haven’t done any offset turning, but I’ll certainly give this a try!
Cheers, Rick
Hi Rick...
Thank you so much...
I hope that you will give it a go..
Practice on a scrap piece.. which is what I did.. just to get your head around what to do...
Make the off centre hole halfway between the centre and the edge...and have fun...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
1st BBBOOOOOOMMM
Yeah!

Hi Huw...
Many congratulations... Haha...
Great fun project Andy, I'll have a go at that tomorrow! Hope all is well with you, and look forward to seeing you soon!
Hi Paul...
Thank you very much...
I hope that you will enjoy making yours... send me a picture...
I'm okay thanks... I hope that you and yours are all well ...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
@@AndysCornishCreations will do Andy, all the best!
Fantastic Andy, Off center is something I have only done once but you make this look so easy.
How wet was the wood?
Take care my friend.
Cheers, Huw
Hi Huw...
I can't remember if I had done any off centre turning before this...
It was quite easy in the end but I did mess up my practice piece.. Haha..
The wood was fairly dry.. I've had it a while in the workshop.. but didn't test it..
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy great job as usual also really like your presentation style very engaging and informative at the same time
Hi Neil...
I'm glad that you liked it and thank you so much for your kind comments...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Great job!!! Do you think this could be done on a mini lathe?
Hi Richard...
Thank you so much...
Yes no problem on a mini lathe... I hope that you will enjoy making yours...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Well done Andy 👏. Lovely little fun project. Always admire the way you keep your projects simple and suitable for all levels of turner. Hope to have a go at the bird 🐦 and share to your email.
Take care, Joseph
Hi Joseph...
Thank you so much... I'm glad that you liked it... yes ..a fun one to do...
