Love the fact that you aren’t afraid to try new things and that your videos show “Real World” results that include the safety aspects of all shop work. They are beautiful heirloom ornaments that should be passed on to the next generation. Merry Christmas 🎄 and a Happy and Blessed New Year to you and your family.
Thanks for this video! I’ve never attempted one of these, mostly because I didn’t understand how they were made. After watching your video the process finally made sense! Thank you!!
They were very beautiful inside out's I'm glad you swearing your face shield it reinforced my wearing a face shield I've done two inside out's I used sipped ties I hope to see more of your turnings and always emphasize Safety First stay safe and God bless
I’m really impressed! With my luck, I’d cut right smack dab into the cutout part. You’re a true artist, and I appreciate how you explain things so well.
You should try fiber tape on the ends next time. I also use hot glue to put the pieces together, Drilling a small hole in the ends center will help to prevent the pieces from splitting apart
Nicely done. One of the problems of this type of turning can be that the point of a typical tailstock live center effectively "opens" the end of the taped-up turning blank. This may have been part of the problem you faced, in addition to the aggressive cut you mentioned. A different type of tailstock center might help with this. Also, you can color and/or finish the interior of the ornament while the original "outside" turning blank is still on the lathe, which saves time and finger work. And I hear you about the "less is more" approach to the final glue up. Been there; done that; more than once. 🙄✔ A great first effort. Certainly better than mine. 👍👍
Excellent; thumbs up and subscribed. I have been trying to make these "inside out" ornaments. So far three went into the fire, and only one decent ornament. Your video helped much more than videos by the experts. Since you were also new to this project, you show the tricks and potential problems. I have been turning for 10 years, but learned things from you since you openly shared your experiences. Thank you and Merry Christmas! Bill
Thanks so much Bill, I am sure you’d be able to teach me a lot more about wood turning. I appreciate the comment. Have fun making your ornaments. Hopefully no more firewood 😆
Very crafty project and the results turned out so pretty. I will have to put off tackling this project until I find a used wood lathe on Craigslist. Thank goodness you had on the proper safety gear when that wood flew out of the lathe. The misbehaving of your lathe reminded me to always wear the proper gear which I don't always do.
Muito bem, gostei de a ver a fazer isso no torno. Uma mulher, sim senhor... Também é uma das coisas que mais gosto de fazer, de algo bruto dar-lhe forma e beleza. Obrigado!
OH MY GOD!!! WHEN THAT PIECE EXPLODED IT REACHED HER MASK BARELY!!!!! THE HUMANITY!!!!! IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY YOU CAN SEE, HAD SHE NOT BEEN PREPARED IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FALLING DOWN FROM IT'S APEX ONTO HER CHIN. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE HORROR?????
Nice job! Have you tried a spindle gouge or skew on the fine bits on the ends? It might put less pressure on the thin bits than the carbide tool that you were using.
Interesting. If I had a lathe, I'd want to try that. I bet if you had put some of your finish on the inside turning before separating and regluing, you wouldn't have to worry so much about glue squeeze out - it'd pop right off.
That glue runout on the inside is tricky. I used less glue and removed what I could but in the end I didn't get it all. Some people have given some good feedback on how to combat this that I'll try next time.
Pretty good job on these inside out ornaments. It’s definitely good to have a bit of a plan when tackling these. Don’t over do the glue & sand & finish the inside thoroughly before gluing up.
Love the Shopsmith in the background!

That's a great idea to keep it as an heirloom, thanks for the comment Brad 😊

First one I’ve seen. Love the can do attitude. Look forward to watching more
They look great.
Te quedaron muy bien.
Gracias por compartir y saludos cordiales desde Reynosa México!!!

That’s a great tip, I’ll try that next time.
This is a really great idea. Never seen it before. Thank you.
Thanks 😊
Well done, well done.
Thanks so much.

Beautiful!!
Thank you so much
Very nice. Thank you! Good thing you had the face shield. Just got one myself after a punky (spalted) piece of wood flew apart. Thanks for the video.
Wow! Those look great and easy to do! Thanks
You bet! Thanks for the thoughtful comment 😊

You should definitely add a lathe to your shop. I’ve been enjoying seeing your Christmas builds too 😊
Really cool. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the comment. Nice to hear you’re enjoying the large as well. 😊
Tahnks for the inspiration.
They are looking good! I need to try to make these next year, when I'll hopefully have a lathe!
Hope Santa brings you a lathe for Christmas 😉
Thanks, nice project. Full View and Like 👍
Those turned out beautiful! Great job!

That is brilliant! I’m gonna have to try that next year! Happy Holidays! 🎄

Are butcher blocks worth it?
Thanks for the question, I’m not quite sure what you’re asking. I just used wood chin is for this project not butcher blocks.
thank you for doing this, looks great and very helpful. How did you keep the glue runout on the inside?
That glue runout on the inside is tricky. I used less glue and removed what I could but in the end I didn't get it all. Some people have given some good feedback on how to combat this that I'll try next time.
Pretty good job on these inside out ornaments. It’s definitely good to have a bit of a plan when tackling these. Don’t over do the glue & sand & finish the inside thoroughly before gluing up.
Those are super cool ornaments, I love them! Makes me want to get a decent lathe to try my hand at this. :)
Nice job. Woodturning is not carving.
I did it with Woodglut.
You make videos they are not carving tools they are turning tools and get rid of the jacket remember no long sleeves and no jewelry
I prefer to build with Woodglut plans.
