    Woodturning - YEW Can't Be Serious?
    In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a blank made with yew logs and mahogany into a bowl. I feel this video falls into the ASMR and entertainment categories.
    If you find these video’s a good source of entertainment, I’d appreciate you like, share and subscribe.
    Thanks for watching.

    All i can say Jack is that is amazing being a wood worker for little over 40 years i never thought of that. Much respect for your imagination. And that's the fact Jack. I know a lot thought you were unsafe but we real woodworkers can and can't get away from. I'm definitely following. Wright me im 71 can't work any more as my lower spine has collapsed i was 5'10" now I'm 5'6" in pain all the time. Good luck you got it going. A fellow retired wood worker. I sure miss it all.

      @@wldtrky38 thanks for the encouragement. Full story blew 2 disc out in 1984. First dr. Rassuick was my surgeon he was chipping bone on joint 1 level to high. Nurse corrected him so he started back on L3 n L4 removed discs.awoke in more pain then ever felt took 3 shots of morphine to get rid of it i was even morphine drip was how much it hurt but you know that all to well also. Bad dr. Sent me to work 6 wk's later. Destroyed me after 5 weeks stopped working got new dr. Funny fact sort of in 2017 in hosp. I had Pneumonia and one of the dr's. ask about my surgeries he said oh you poor man we dr's. Called hin often wrong Rassuick. He got fired in 85 said he damaged over 85 people. Got new dr. Bowman after he tried every non surgical method i just got worse had fusion from hips to L5 in 85. Worked a little better but still lots of pain declared 100% disabled in 86 by work comp. and ssd. Keep on doing what i could but by end of day totalled. Really bad pain started in 2015 unbelieveable pain to this day yet. Got stronger meds but little relief. He did x-rays said my spinal was gone no trace it was ever there. My spine is now in a s curve cord tightly streached chips on base n top of lumbar and all discs gone on lumbar and two disc blew out on 2 above L5 and bottom of them have cracks. In Feb. 2018 moved from Iowa to Texas couldn't care for myself so forced by son and doctor to move in with him and family. Took all this time to find a good dr. now for the last 3 months Gonna try a pain pump asap. He put me on higher meds and now we wait to find a clinic that does pain pumps. The government has got all these docs in texas scared all to hell on pain meds and any type of pain med. delivery methods. So here i go again. I have Jesus on my side so that's my bonus. So wild turkey you just keep on keeping on is all i can say for us crippled back people. Sincerely, Don Freebird Gregg

    Wow Jack, I am amazed at your talent, I have recently started turning, I recently retired and found your video and had to buy a lathe. I have a small woodworking shop and made several Adirondack chairs and a bed for my son, I came across your channel and I just had to give it a try. I hope one day I will get to the level that you are at, its amazing. My grandson is two years old and he sits and watches you turn and will say as soon as the video ends, “another Pawpaw”. Just wanted you to know, when I get to a point in the turn and it becomes a “head scratcher” I always ask myself, what would Jack do? Thanks again for the inspiration to try new things.

      My goal with these videos it to reach non woodturners and inspire them to give it a try. Knowing that it’s worked just once means I’ve contributed to a positive change in someone life and that’s a fantastic feeling. Thanks for taking the time to tell me.
      I have a 2 year old boy (and a 6 mth old)
      The 2 yr old likes to watch my videos and points at the tv saying .. “dad working with trees” or “more more trees”
      I know that if one of my videos can hold his attention then the editing is done right 🤣
      Please feel free to drop me an email if you need advice on turning of if your in a head scratcher of a moment.

    As a hobby woodturner it took me a while to figure out where this was going. It ended up as a masterpiece. If any turners out there get the chance to acquire some yew seize the moment as it's toxic and therefore not grown on farmland. It's not exactly scarce but is mainly found on church graveyards etc well away from farm animals as the berries it produces can kill a cow if consumed. It's a truly beautiful wood and takes a great finish.

I always thank them by making something for them for the wood be it only a pen. Also, I have a friend who is a tree surgeon. Often, he is asked to just remove a fallen tree so I help him with the donkey work and get some wood. Most recently I helped him remove a beech tree which was at least 200 hundred years old. I could have cried as most of it was going for firewood.

      Those old beech trees always do. That’s why I have space to save those big trees .. it’s a lot of work cutting and then having to turn 600 blanks in 2 weeks before they crack. But it’s always worth it to stop a big old tree becoming ash

      Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the finished piece.
      The logs never go on the planer in the round.. you always cut a face on them first. As you see me do in this video.
      If you use a jointer and “push” down when planing you need to cut the plug off your jointer straight away.
      It terrifies me the way people think you are supposed to use a machine from watching RUclips videos.
      Jointing/planing a piece of wood is best done with hands NOT plastic blocks.
      All accident with woodworking machine come from complacent behaviour.. what do you think you learn if you plane with awkward plastic shovels ?? You learn to be complacent… and the damage you could do with one mindless slip is often feeding whole sets of knuckles into the planer blades.
      I use a gentle touch with the tips of my fingers.. light little monkey touches.
      But the most important tool to use is your brain, keep your brain engaged and you stay safe.
      By the way.. “RUclips safety police” is normally an other way to say inexperienced and misinformed.
      My knowledge comes from years of hand on experience day in day out.

I used to cringe when I watched him use his woodworking tools, but he would say the same thing "I have been doing woodwork longer than you have been alive, I know what I am doing". A week later I was visiting him in hospital. He had his big toe amputated and used to replace his right thumb that went into the planer blades. He had been woodworking for more than 60 years.

      @@JackMackWoodturning Yes I did. It looks great. A lot of times different species of wood don't look good together when they are raw. Once the finish is applied the wood has a totally different character. I see that in my own turnings. I think something is not going to look to good. Then I apply a finish and things just start to pop.

    I am not a woodturner at all, but I am always wondering if there would be a way to spill less wood for these bowls by just glueing bottom and walls together instead of removing enormous amounts off of blocks of wood. What do you think?

    Great video. I saw a lot of practices that I would use. Laminating the logs that way was thinking outside of the box, the only thing I would have done would have been to cut the circle on the bandsaw, I have a little circle cutting jig just for that. Great job and thanks for sharing.

    • @JackMackWoodturning
      @JackMackWoodturning  Год назад +1

      Thanks. I think if your still learning to turn you should use square blank as practice with your bowl gouge. Then once your proficient with a bowl gouge you won’t need to go to all the effort of setting up your jig and bandsaw/turning for the blade ect. Plus.. even after rounding the corners off you still have square stock to deal with on the lathe. Way better and faster to just use one machine. So much faster, it takes about 1 minutes to round it out on a lathe.. when you think that you still have to mount it and turn it after the bandsaw it’s actually a fault economy.
      And your loosing the opportunity to get better with your gouge.
