Thanks Mike! I've enjoyed and learned from this series. I use my Wagner tools quite a bit on bowls, boxes, etc. I recommend that anyone that is just starting out with texturing do a lot of practice on different woods and with the tool in different positions. I did this and kept notes. I love the different textures and designs that you can make with just suttlel moves. Thanks for a very thorough and understandable explanation of the different tools. Take care, Dave

David Morgan I agree David. On a lot of pieces I turn (with different species of wood) I practice spiraling or texturing once the project is round and before I turn to final shape so I can see how it reacts and use different techniques. Then I turn it to the final shape and then use use a spiraling or texturing tool. And I take notes...

I just finished this 3-part series and, as usual, really learned a lot. Thanks again for sharing.

Thanks. Texturing is fun to play with.

Thanks Mike. I enjoyed the 3 videos on texturing. I think I will start with the Wagner tools.

Mike as always good stuff, I ordered some bits to try out with my die grinder. Looking forward to embellishing. Thanks again for sharing.

Another informative video series Mike. I like the idea of making a sample board. I usually take pictures but have lost my digital pictures before so I think I’ll go the sample board route. Ron

I really enjoy all of your woodturning videos!!!

This series was based on the demo I did at the AAW symposium which seemed to be well received. Safe turning.

Thank you for this video and I hope it encourages more turners to try texturing. It can be very rewarding. I find the application of a little gold burnishing cream really helps highlight the patterns.

I use RubNBuff but there are a lot of metalic waxes out there. I like them too. Maybe a separate video?

This series got me thinking. I have an cheap old die grinder and several carbide bits for it. I found it didn't have the power I needed for cutting steel as I wanted so I replaced it with a more powerful one. I think I can use the cheap one as a chuck to do some wood texturing. Of course I won't use it under power, just free spinning. All of the bits have a 1/4" shank so maybe even more ridged than the bits you use. I'll let you know if and how it works. Now I think it might work for carving as well, under power...hmmm! Thanks for the "How To" videos.

Thanks Mike I really enjoyed your series on texturing. I need to write down what I did when creating something that I like. I should have thought about that sooner. Old age syndrome lol.

HI Mike best site its all great well explained all tell me where your making tools site are you go to fast for an old fella love it all keep it going best to you David U/K

Hi Mike, great video as always brother. I'm looking to do some texturing on a project and the particular pattern I want is the cross hatch pattern like on the middle acorn in the video. Do you happen to remember which tool you used to get that pattern? Thanks, Tim

Mike. Can you add a different texture by putting the lathe in reverse?

@MikePeaceWoodturning

No.

To increase the pattern you increase the angle the knurling tool is presented to the work. The speed is too high. The knurling tool is an engineering lathe tool, watch metal turning videos to learn how to use it correctly.
