Nicely done. I part mine off, then finish, some with sparkling glitter glue. Like magic. Nice technique on the turning. ✅

I like the way this turner is NOT waffling on ad nauseum, just playing pleasant Christmas music and demonstrating his skill.

Nice work! Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas.

Wow! Those trees are beatiful! You have a nack for wood working. Awesome job!!

Nice job. thx for sharing!

Very nice work, I think I might have to go to the shop and see if I can make one. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your comment :) It's my own design, but feel free to copy it as much as you like :)

What did you use for the frosting effect, love that touch.

I don't have the can anymore, but it was some sort of glitter spray from a hobby store. Like a laquer containing glitter flakes. To get the frost effect I just use the slightest touch of this spray before i seal it in with another clear laquer.

I am a new turner. Is that a bowl gouge?

Can you please tell me what kind of brand you used on these Christmas trees. I would like to buy a small brand like that.

What do you mean by "brand"? Do you mean the branding tool with my seal?

Looks great, what is that buffing pad you use? looks like a giant brillo pad.

I don't know what a brillo pad is...I don't think we have those in Norway. That is a sanding pad at 280K.

What would you charge for each of those if you sold them? Very cool, awesome design & execution

I have not really thought about it, since i gave these away as christmas gifts. It is hard to calculate a price for hobby projects like this since everything from cutting the wood and drying it is not done very effectively, but I imagine maybe $50 would be a minimum.

I use water soluble powder of a brand called Keda Dye from Keda Dye Inc. Just add to boiling water and mix the color you want.

@@brucebonkowsky9406 I am not really sure what you are asking here. English is not my native language... do you want to buy a tree or something like that? If that is your question than I have to let you know that I will not have time to make christmas trees this year because all my time now is spent on a different project that I need to get finished before christmas. Thanks anyways for your interest and your kind review. :)

Das letzte was ich für meine Schwester gedrechselt habe ist im Ofen gelandet, weil sie der Meinung war, da wären Würmer drin. Dabei war es abgelagert und die Löcher waren die Löcher von den Nägeln im Fachwerkbalken. Man sollte aufpassen ob die beschenkte Person überhaupt was damit anfangen kann. Ich hasse Weihnachten!

Es tut mir leid, von unserer Erfahrung zu hören. Weihnachten kann wirklich ein Schmerz sein, aber vielleicht habe ich einen kleinen Tipp für Sie. Als ich diese Bäume gemacht habe, habe ich das Holz in einer Mikrowelle getrocknet. Ich habe grünes Holz verwendet und Sie können ihm viel Wärme geben, damit alles im Inneren kocht, aber achten Sie auf die Grenzen und trocknen Sie das Holz ein wenig nach dem anderen, damit es nicht anfängt zu brennen. Die Methode besteht darin, zuerst das Gewicht des Holzes zu messen. Dann bringen Sie es zum Siedepunkt ... die Zeit dafür variiert stark, je nachdem wie trocken das Holz bereits ist. Wenn ich grünes Holz benutze, gebe ich es normalerweise 6-8 Minuten bei voller Leistung, dann lasse ich es ein paar Minuten abkühlen, bis es aufhört zu rauchen. Dann messe ich das Gewicht noch einmal und mache mir Notizen. Wenn Sie dies tun, bis das Holz sehr wenig Rauch abgibt und das Gewicht gleich bleibt, wird das Holz getrocknet. Alles, was darin lebte, ist tot ... Pilz oder Würmer oder irgendetwas. Wenn Sie das Holz ohne Beschichtung in einem Raum lassen, erhält es schließlich einen stabilen Feuchtigkeitsgehalt. Ich weiß nicht, ob dies Ihnen helfen kann, es ist nur ein Tipp darüber, was ich selbst mache. (übersetzt in Google Übersetzer)
