Woodturning- copying a finial

- This shows me reproducing old clock finials to a sample. A few tips on making accurate copies.
These are my methods and not a tutorial and all woodturners are responsible for their own safety. Do not attempt anything your not comfortable with.

My favorite wood turning channel. Thanks for the time and effort.
Thank you and just sorry I don’t post more often
Really impressive work. I thoroughly enjoy watching you turn! Your commentary instruction is also great. Keep them coming!
Thank you
good to see you back on this platform again Steve
Thank you
Wonderful to see your new video. Just a joy to watch your tool control. I very much enjoyed reading about you in Woodturning magazine. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you and pleased you enjoyed the magazine article
So good to see you back doing slightly longer videos… been following your twitter, but great to also have the longer (amazing!!) videos on RUclips: inspirational, educational, incredibly enjoyable to watch… Thank you!! Michael
Thank you
What a joy to watch you work, Steve.
Thank you
Nice to see you post a video again. Great work as ever. Best regards..Terry..
Thank you
Thanks, Steve. A pleasure to watch.
Thank you Richard, good to hear from you I hope you’re keeping well.
Хорошая работа!
Good job!
Using a simple template makes it easy to work.
Thanks for the idea.
Thank you
That’s a work of art mate…absolutely beautiful! Plus it’s so therapeutic watching you work. Thank you
Thank you
A master at his craft is a joy to behold.
Thank you
You’re back!
Sorry for the delay I just don’t seem to find the time for these. I must try harder. 😁
Excellent work! It’s been ages since we saw you! Thanks for sharing, keep it up!
No doubt the skew leaves the best surface on wood. Just lately I have been trying the Russian knife (skew) and find it extremely useful on my turning projects.
So glad that you put this on RUclips Steve. I hope it does well for you. Impressive work. Easier to find here than on Instagram.
Thank you
Absolutely awesome🙏
Thank you
Beautiful work as always Steve! Thank you for always sharing with us! Merry Christmas! ✝🎁🎄And Happy New Year!😎JP
Thank you Merry Christmas
@@woodturner21 Your very welcome Steve! and Thank you😎
Very well done. I turned a couple finials that were quite similar to this design, but they were 2 feet tall and were installed on gazebos in a park in Dayton, Ohio. Your delicate touch after producing the tenon is impressive. Scott
Thank you. Roof finials are a regular job for me but the normally go on the apex of roofs here.
Very nice work. Did you ever imagine that there is nearly 20,000 people that would like to watch what you do for a job??
Thank you, no it amazes me the amount of interest in it.
@@woodturner21 I'm 39 and found woodturning kind of by accident. It has helped me in a many ways. Watching production turners and having a few virtual lessons from Robbo in Australia has helped me improve my skills. I hope to keep the craft alive because in my opinion, it is art
Robbo is a great tutor. Good on you.
Superb work Steve 👏😎
Thank you
Thanks for sharing, Steve. A great lesson and explanation
Take care
Cheers
Harold
Thank you
Really nice video and excellent explanation of of why your doing it as you are 👍
Thank you
Super!!!👍👍👍
Thank you
Nice work Steve, I was wondering on tiny smaller beads do you ever use the toe of the skew?
Thank you.
Yes, I do. It doesn’t really matter but sometimes the toe can give easier access.
I ‘ve missed your posts.
Sorry I struggle to find time to post on RUclips but I’ll try to post more often.
تسلم ايدك بجد انت فنان انا عندي قناه بشتغل فيها شغل على ادي
Thank you
I find it challenging to copy curves like this. I can't figure out if the problem is needing to train my eye or train my hands. Any thoughts based on how you learned? Did you draw or do something to train your eye? I know I need to develop better tool control, but it also feels like I just don't "know the shapes" in my brain. Am curious if that rings a bell with you for back when you were training?
Thank you for sharing your work with these videos.
I learned by doing a production turners apprenticeship so learnt by constant repetition of shapes.
I don't know if you'll be reading this but I have a question :
I have a small Record lathe (and it is big enough for the spindles and chair-legs I want to turn) BUT the tool rest that came with the machine is rubbish (even to my beginner's eyes). It's too narrow, the shape feels wrong and the metal is too soft. I will make a new, wider and better one. Do you have any tips ? How do you like your tool rests ?
I have many different tool rests and as long as the top is fairly narrow slightly rounded and smooth it’s good
