- fund your hobby with scrap wood. In this new woodturning video I am using scrap wood from a construction site to make craft show items to sell. This is a great way to make money for tools and supplies. I'm also introducing a new tool that works great. I glued 2 2x6's together to make a nice candy dish. I hope you like this new wood turning video. Thanks for watching!

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Take care and God Bless.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! And God bless you too!
It's amazing what you make from scraps.
Thank you! I'm glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
@@RcWoodturning Always watching.
@@lenshandcraftedwoodsigns6033 I appreciate that!
Nice. Good recycling.
Thanks!
That came out really nice.
@@m8s4lif Thank you! Appreciate you watching!
Welcome back. Looking forward to your shop tour.
@@lewisdye1002 Thank you! Should be up in a day or 2.
Thank you so much, Rus, what a beautiful candy dish!
I'm glad you like it Katrina!
Thank you for providing excellent quality tools for these projects.
That 1 1/2” scraper is a massive beastie, but it looks like a high quality tool!
Yes it is
very pretty
Thank you!
I'm glad you like it!
Very nice I really like your ideas
@@richardbryant7972 Thank you!
I try to keep it interesting.
Appreciate you watching!
Hey Rus, nice candy dish. I tried same with 2x6 went pretty easy. I just got a scraper, can't wait to use it. Appreciate the video, keep them coming....Dan
Thank you Dan! It's kind of a plain design, but that's what the customer wanted.
Appreciate you watching!
Awesome video, and the end result was great looking. I have one question though, if you're turning it to round anyhow, why did you offset the 2 pieces 45 degrees?
Thanks again for the great idea and video!
Thank you! My intention for the offset was to mix up the grain of the 2 pieces. As it turned out it didn't make that much of a difference.
Thanks for watching!
@@RcWoodturning Oh, okay, that makes sense. I thought maybe it was some trick that I didn't know about (for instance, easier to turn to round if they are offset or something). Now that I found your channel, I have a lot of new content to view, so thank you very much, enjoying your videos a lot!
@aceenterprise I'm glad your enjoying it! Appreciate the support!
Nice! I’ve made some of these to give as gifts. Might try selling them.
@@michaelmorris3627 Thanks! They do make good gift ideas.
...it's hard for me to make money from scraps to fund my hobby when my wife wants to keep everything I make...🤔
Impressive how you got such a clean finish with the bowl gouge on that pine(?) end grain...👍
It turned out great...
Matt
There's a lot to be said for a happy wife.
The sheer scrape is an excellent technique to learn.
Thanks for watching!
Nice work, thanks for sharing. Full view and Like 👍
Thank you!
I appreciate that!
I'm hooked. I want a wood working lathe. What is the maker of that lathe? That is so satisfying watching this.
Thank you! This lathe is a shop fox W1752. I don't think they make one anymore, but have similar.
If your formula food safe? Thinking of the candy dish you show.
There is debate on whether blo is food safe. The candy is always in wrappers while in the dish. All I can say is it's never been an issue for me. If I was making a bowl or something to be used for food I wouldn't use this finish because it won't hold to the use.
Very nice. What finish did you use
Thanks! Friction polish. Here's a video of my mix.

@RcWoodturning thanks for the video
Interesting video along with the others. I notice that you use one tool for almost all your turnings. Is that a bowl gouge or spindle gouge? Size? Thanks.
@@knothead5 Thank you! It's a 1/2 bowl gouge. Appreciate you watching!
@@RcWoodturning Subscribed, going to watch more of your videos. Gotta make some $$$$.
Hope it works out for you.
Am I silly or would it be good to bandsaw them into circles first?
@@mrbeastchocolate Yes you could do that. Or just cut off the corners.
Why glue the two pieces together offset, on the diagonal, if you're going to turn round? Was it for the grain effect?
Yes. I don't know if made any difference but I thought I would try it.
@@RcWoodturning Interesting grain orientation. Curious: what do you charge for that candy dish?
@@knothead5 Thank you! I sold this for 15.00. But everyone at the craft show told me I was underpricing my products.
What is in the jar labeled: “furniture polish”? Is it a formula you would be willing to share?
Thanking you in advance.
@@terryalextexas8638 It's homemade friction polish.
Here's the video;

Nice work. Turning pines always a disaster for me. Guess I need to learn to sharpen better
Thanks!
Ya, learning to sharpen and tool technique are probably your biggest assets.
What did you use for finish?
Friction polish.
@@RcWoodturning Thanks, just started turning last month on an inherited lathe and learning all I can while practicing!
Why stagger the corners?
@@baxterrinehart6166 I was attempting to change up the grain design, but I'm not sure if it really made a difference.
fix the bottom
