Woodturning - Time to make some bells for the Christmas market

[@jimborstock6281]

Beautiful! Great work. Great narration. Thanks for sharing. Going to try and make these as wedding bells for my nephew.

[@GregStute]

Thanks for the kind words and good luck with your nephew's wedding bells.

Thanks.

[@Teknojok]

Really like this !! Will be giving it a go. Thank you.

[@GregStute]

Thanks for watching. Love to see your bells

[@TController]

Fantastic camera angles showing how the gouge / tool is presented to the wood. Really helpful. To a novice it is, anyway!

[@GregStute]

Thanks for watching. I still watch the angles people use to turn and then try them. Never too old to learn.

[@GregStute]

Thanks Mark

Nice job Greg. Beautiful wood species. Don't think we have here in the states but I'm gonna ask.

[@GregStute]

Thanks Jeff. Pretty sure it is an Australian wood. I still have a bit left but would like to get some more as it is a great wood to turn.

[@davidrust7480]

Good job

[@GregStute]

Thanks David

[@mikew2468]

Great result, thanks. I live just north of Loxley but I don't think you mean the one just outside Stratford upon Avon in Warwickshire!? Hope you have some great Christmas fairs.

[@GregStute]

Thanks for watching Mike. Locksley is a small country town with a few houses. I have never been to Loxley but image it is a beautiful area.

[@JohnWilliams-iw6oq]

You dropped a real clanger! Beautiful pieces Greg, ever thought of making these in different sizes with clangers that work so that the series becomes a wind chime?

[@GregStute]

I thought I should look up the part that makes the bell ring. It’s a clapper. LOL. That’s a great idea. You now have me thinking how to make the wind chime.

[@JohnWilliams-iw6oq]

@@GregStute I'll applaud the clapper Greg.... my jokes get worse as I get older.

[@EricShirley-h1q]

outstanding

[@GregStute]

Thanks for that. Appreciate it.

[@stevioclark]

Can't understand you. What kind of wood is the bell made from? Do you have the Latin name?

[@GregStute]

Morning Steve. The wood is a she oak from the Locksley area in Central Victoria. Not sure for the Latin name. I am running out of it so will need to visit the area again sometime

[@ianbedwell4871]

What sort of price do you ask at the market for these? Very nice work, Merry Christmas from BC, Canada. I did laugh at the dropped clappers, I do that all the time with small parts ( lately Gnome noses) 😊

[@GregStute]

Hope you are enjoying Christmas. Beautiful part of the world is BC. I ask $20 at the market. It’s a very small market. Will have to try turning a gnome sometime
