I really appreciate you showing close up what you’re doing. I feel that by watching your videos, and some others it’s going to help me to use my own tools to create beautiful things.

That's how I learned, Gotta love youtube.

These trees are beautiful...I wouldn't mind two or three for myself.I love anything in natural wood.

Thanks for sharing, nice work. Full View and Like. Merry Christmas to you and your family

Nice. The sharpee’s do a nice job of staining the wood, easier than ink from a jar.

Very neat & topical. 👍🇦🇺🔭

This is really amazing! You're so skilled! Excellent! Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!

Jet 1840evs, this is the early version that had the rotating head. On the newer version the head does not rotate.

Nice job with the skew- How long have you been turning wood at the time of this video? I am a newbie and I can tell you it is quit humbling to be new at this hobby. I' ve already ran the skew into my chuck twice now and took a big hunk of metal out of the bevel. Stupid mistake.. You make it look easy. Whats the secret to chucking that poplar up? I got some of that 2" poplar dowel and put it in the chuck and it wobbled badly.

Bought my first lathe in 2012 a Delta 46-460 Variable-Speed Midi Lathe. and did a few turnings here and there. I started really getting serious about turning in 2015. In 2016 I decided to just concentrate on learning the skew. I watched KZread videos on just skew techniques. Then go practice what I had just watched. I did this for most of 2016. Practice practice practice really does help. I use a Oneway Live Center tail stock with the large 3-1/4'' in dia. cone center reversed, so the 2" poplar dowel fits inside the cone. Make sure that the dowel is cut square. A well centered small hole for a standard tail stock works too. Make sure that the tail stock is against the dowel before you tighten the chuck.

@@terryspade441 Thanks for that info. That is priceless, I am going to use the large cone as you suggested, so basically you use the cone to seat the dowel into the chuck before tightening, got it. I just got my first lathe and it is a humbling learning experience. Thanks for the tips.

Could you tell us the dimension you mark on your blank please? thank you

Using American inches, The first line I mark is 4½ inches from the top of the tree. I then tapper the blank back to that line. Then I mark the other 7 lines. First line is 5/8 inch from the top. Second line is 5/16 inch from the first line. Third line is 3/8 inch from the second line. Forth line is 1/2 inch from the third line. Fifth line is 9/16 inch from the forth line. Sixth line is 5/8 inch from the fifth line. Seventh line is 11/16 from the sixth line. Hope this isn't too confusing.
