Wow sir you have far more patients than I do and I thought I had a lot I don't think I could sit down and do this my hat's off to you for being able to do it great work and video thank you for sharing this with us. James
Hey Tom, I most recently found your channel and absolutely love your work. I just got my first lathe and hope that some day I can build up my skills and knowledge to turn stuff like yours. I cant wait to do my first segmented turn
Hi Tom, love your work. I have looked for the jig you have. Did you build it or buy it? If you bought it, where did you get it? I have been looking for it.
@@mcdonaldjs I make and sell the parts that you need a CNC to make, I will also make the complete gluing jig if requested. See my site “segmentedturning.org”
In watching your RUclips video, I seemed to notice that you cut all your board widths the same. Am I seeing that correctly? To me, it makes sense to do so. While it may not be efficient, it does seem to be effective.
Depending on the project I will do one width or two if the diameter changes quickly. This method is very efficient I do not have to cut different width, and can bundle the strips together. It is efficient but uses more wood than needed.
Great video, amazing work! Pardon my ignorance, but why is it better to glue the segments every other position, then going back to fill in the gaps. Rather than just glueing them side by side as you go?
Tom Lohman ah, that makes sense, thanks for the reply! I guess I’m used to the rings I’ve seen where the segments get clamped all together. But working with such small intricate pieces like yours probably doesn’t allow that kind of thing. Amazing stuff. Thanks!
For the high count (144 segment per row and above) pieces I do not apply pressure after each row. For the 48 segment count vessels I do apply pressure after each row.
Tom what computer program are you using to aid you in design/layout/sizing? I've tried to draw longhand a plan and get very lost by the second row. Thanks, John
I generally consider myself to be a patient person, but you sir, are in a class by yourself.

you're completely insane... but I loved watching this, and the little bowls are exquisite - long may your insanity continue!
Interesting process, thanks for sharing. Full View and Like 👍
Beautiful, it shows your craftsmanship and most important your patience.

I will be teaching a class at MASW in April at the same level as these bowl’s.

Tom, that is an ingenious jig is there a set of plans for it?
No plans, but I do make them
Great tips! Thanks for sharing

D Cannon, when you glue pieces and do not leave a space it will push the last piece you glued when you are gluing the next piece.

Tom, thank you for the excellent tutorial. I love that gluing jig. Where did you get it?
I make them. For details email me at tomlohman@earthlink.net
I hope your making a fortune on these bowls
Very good video. I wish I had been able to attend the class this week. Maybe next time. 👍
Do you apply pressure after every ring, or do you do a couple of rings before apply pressure on the lathe?
For the high count (144 segment per row and above) pieces I do not apply pressure after each row. For the 48 segment count vessels I do apply pressure after each row.
Tom what computer program are you using to aid you in design/layout/sizing?

I use Segment PRO
Can this jig be purchased or the plans purchased?
Yes, email me at tomlohman@earthlink.net
I just came across this video. Do you have the plans for the jig to do the glue up?
Sorry no plans but I make them.
@@TomLohman you sale them?
@@stephendietz6936 yes, 14” and 24” index wheel size.
@@TomLohman what’s the prices?
@@stephendietz6936 14” a little over $800 and 24” a little over $1,000
