Now while I am not french, but from may years in the army, that is the kind of french that my squad mates taught me. Despite the momentous pain in the butt, kudos for sticking to it.
🤣🤣🤣. I hope the shop door was closed at the time. I finished a 'Yarn' bowl yesterday and had the same thing happen to me three times. My frustration was in Australian LOL. I have to be careful because my will come rushing in with the first aid kit and the phone ready to call for an ambulance. The fear is that as the piece hits the floor it will break into lots of pieces. Thankfully not this time. Merry Christmas to you and Rena. See you next year.
In Australian, I'm sure it doesn't sound like the one I gently said, but the feeling was the same I'm sure... The doors were closed, I don't like to heat outside when it's bellow the freezing point. But Renée is so used to that, she always say that she's worried when I say nothing... She knew something was wrong the day I broke my toe and it was pouring blood like an open faucet, I didn't said a word....
I think you run a little to high RPM and also head stock bearings are already at the end of life. Hard to say for sure just watching video. Would be nice to get some translation in some parts of this recording :-)
I don't imagine you'll be making another one of these but the inside of the mortar works best for grinding things up if it's a bit rougher, not so sanded.
I might make one or two more to try to sell at Christmas fair, maybe next year. I didn't knew that, I thought it needed to be super smooth, like the marble ones.
@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker The wide marble ones with the tabs on the outer edge you see in Italy are used for making pesto, not so much grinding spices. The better tool for harder materials is the Mexican version of this the "molcajete". Both mortar and pestle parts of these are made from really porous volcanic rock, works excellently.
I hope you're more patient than I am... I have a, somehow old, but not to bad lathe, but I don't really like turning... I do it but don't always enjoy it, as you might have noticed. But I think what I dislike is what draw most people to it; instant reward. You put a piece of wood on the lathe and half an hour later it's done with finish and all. I have the feeling I did nothing. But it's quick and it can be a nice present without too much effort.. Yes I've turned other presents this Christmas, you'll see that next year, but without the drama this time....
@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker I too have an old (but not especially good) lathe, but with patience I have learned to make some nice things. You are 100% correct that the turning part of the work is pretty quick. For me the rewarding part is preparing the turning blank. Sometimes I'll spend a week gluing up a segmented bowl or rolling pin. Then the challenge is to release the beautiful form contained within the ugly gluey mess. When I was initially teaching myself to use my lathe (I'm still on the learning curve), I practiced with pieces of firewood. That way my failures ended up where they were going anyway, and it cost me nothing. There were days when the workshop was very warm indeed.
It's why this year I used a solid piece of wood to make my Christmas presents, This way when they blew in my face I didn't had the disappointment of having waited a week for all that glue to dry and ruined the piece. But out of 9 turned boxes I only had two who flew away. But this part of the wood had dry rot, so it was to be expected.
Doesn't the chuck have a bevel on the parts that hold the piece? So that if you bevel the mortise that it is holding, it would act like a dovetail? There has to be a good reason why it keeps coming out. Have you heard that english expression - "The definition of madness is to do the same thing and expect a different result!"
Yes I've know the expression. On the Christmas present I've turned this year, I made a tiny angle cut like you said. It was better out of 9 only 2 exploded from the bottom tenon, the rest hold well in place.
LOL Alain, it was refreshing to see you lose your cool like so many of us do in the shop! If you ever need a hand with your projects just let me know I'm just down the road on the East end of Montreal.
I think your headstock bearings are warn causing a vibration in your chuck, it’s the vibration that is causing the work peace to break free from the chuck.
Most of my years of school French were taught by an ex-nun. She *definitely* didn't teach us any of those words. (But I'm sure that even she would think their usage appropriate given Alain's very trying circumstances in this video...)
I would say that this would had been a better solution. If I ever make another one, I might make a couple more to sell a Christmas fair, I will definitively remove most of the inside with a forstner bit.

Yes it was... I was not sure about all this swearing so I asked one friend from NY if it was disturbing. He said most people won't understand what I say but really understand that I'm not too happy.
Now I really wish I spoke French. The swearing sounded like it was epic. Great project, as always. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Usually it's the first thing we like teaching others....
This episode reminds me of when you tried to steam bend some wood! LOL. The finished mortar and pestle are beautiful!
This was also epic....
Thank you
You sound genuine which is truly adorable! Yet super professional! ❤️
As a small consolation, at 02:28 you now have some more triangular supports for use when finishing other projects.
Hello Alain
Merci pour ce partage durant l'année
Passez un joyeux noël et une bonne année 2022 en famille👌🖐🎅

You're the second person thinking the bearings are a bit worn.. .I will check this
As for the translation you'll have to use your imagination

Thank you, I'm on the opposite side of the Island, what I call the far west Island, west of Ile Perrot
You wouldn't be a woodworker if there weren't the occasional cuss words in a project!
😆
Alain and the lathe are not friends 🙂
No they're not :)

I will check that thanks
Pardon your French!!
I have forgotten most of the French I learned in high school, but I'm pretty sure that what you were yelling was not taught in class. :)
I'm sure they don't theach that
Most of my years of school French were taught by an ex-nun. She *definitely* didn't teach us any of those words. (But I'm sure that even she would think their usage appropriate given Alain's very trying circumstances in this video...)
A nun wouldn't use those words that's for sure..
I always wonder if it would be easier to remove the bulk of the material from the inside with a Forstner bit.
I would say that this would had been a better solution. If I ever make another one, I might make a couple more to sell a Christmas fair, I will definitively remove most of the inside with a forstner bit.

I do have one. Maybe this would had helped also

@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Yes, it adds flavour :)
What were those words you said in English? 😜
I thought they didn't need to be translated.....
Were you fine? You screamed so luridly.
