Hi, Mike...I'm finally getting those some of the videos on my watch list. Good video! The duct-tape-wrapped bricks for gluing pressure might a good topic for one of your tip videos.
Hi Mike! Working on this project! Got the glue-up done, now to wait till the wax coated piece dries. You mention a factor to add to the male threads. Where can I find information on that? Thanks.
You know, I never thought about not touching the piece while it is still spinning. I do that all the time. Kind of a dumb habit to get into. Thanks for the wake up call
For a large lathe, yes. I rejected the opportunity for a used Oneway recently. I really like my PM and am actually considering upgrading to the newer C model. But some lathe features are personal. Best to turn on one before buying.
See how you get those long threads or ribbons of wood. I never get them it more dust. What am I doing wrong? I am using extremely dry and very hard wood is that some of the cause?
Hello Mike. Hope you had a good Fathers Day. At the 8:11 mark was that a Nova live center in the tail stock or another brand? I ask because am going to order a Nova live center kit soon and the one online looks different than the one on this video... Thanks for your time Mike. Ron
That is a cheap Chinese 60 egree cone I bought before I got the Nova live center. I still use it when I want to use a 60 degree cone just because it is more convenient to put my hands on.
Looks good Mike. I like the contrasting colors...!
Very nice! Keep teaching.
Thank you, I will
Looking very good Mike, on to part two :)
Cheers
Mike

Thanks, Rick. I put that on the list. It just such a simple thing but I have to say it is one of my very few original ideas!

Try adding 70% of a thread width and build on your experience.
@@MikePeaceWoodturning thanks! Tried that. Worked like a champ! ❤

Mike, if you were buying a new lathe today would you stick with a Powermatic?
For a large lathe, yes. I rejected the opportunity for a used Oneway recently. I really like my PM and am actually considering upgrading to the newer C model. But some lathe features are personal. Best to turn on one before buying.

Hard dyr wood won't generate the same shavings as green wood but suspect you need to sharpen your tool, ride the bevel and cut with the grain.

Mike Peace Woodturning Thanks Mike.
Man, that thread tool is scary!
Yea a router is scary too. A lot of similarities I guess.
