Thanks for the terrific video Mike! I learned a lot from it, especially how you hollowed the cup of the goblet. Your teaching style is so clear, calm and deliberate. A real joy to watch. Thanks again! Lou
I went back and looked up one of your captive ring videos and see you have a real store bought ring tool. After looking at the profile of your tool I think I will refine mine and grind a larger captive ring on the other end of my tool. One I can cut larger rings on a baby rattle since I make a couple of those a year for friends and family. I will probably continue to just stick it in the PVC handle. Low tech but seems to work.
Very nice Mike...! Well done. I've been using the cat's claw parting tool you showed how to make. It works great for the captive rings.....! May you and your loved ones have a great safe day....!
Yeah, mine is a 3520-A. That may have been what actually happened. We had a typical North Texas thunderstorm, but I'm not certain that is what caused it. Anyway, better safe than sorry, so I flip the breaker when I'm done for the day. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time.
Mike, I always struggle when sanding a goblet or vase were you do not want to put your fingers. I notice you had made some kind of tool for this. For your next tips you might show how you sand in places that that are hard to get to.

I appreciate your comment very much.
That's a very nice goblet. And the presentation was first rate. Very informative and entertaining.
Great video Mike, I really liked seeing the steps in order--you made it look easy!
Give it a try, Rick. You can do it.
Lovely little goblet Mike, well presented demo, as usual. Thankyou
Great job cobber.
Thanks Mike, a nice clear simple video explaining as you go along what you are doing and why.
What kind of wood is that
One very nice looking goblet there Mike, I haven't done any captive rings for a long time, must get back at it :)
Take care
Mike

Another fine job Mike, thank you for the video.
A beautiful goblet Mike. Regards, Júlíus
Very nice, thanks Mike
Thanks Mike!
You are a great instructor. Thanks
Thank you for your support, Charles Dawson !
Nice job 👍
Nice little goblet Mike. Lots of useful info here. I don't like to see anything in captivity, Set the ring free Mike! LOL
That made me smile.

Thanks, John. I have plans for a regular length Friday video on sanding and I will include this.
Boy do I know how expensive that is when you get a surge through that PowerMatic. I flip the breaker on mine NOW!
Mine is 10 years old and I understand that around 10 -12 years the VFDs start to fail on their own. I would rather mine die of old age!
