I agree, I bought the same lathe with a bed extension, after not knowing what to get and it's turned out to be one of the best tools in my shop. Worth every penny. I use it mainly to make Roorkee chairs after watching some Christopher Schwarz videos.

I love watching you learn as you go with the lathe, Cody. You are certainly one of the best KZreadrs around, my friend.

!!!Hey mr. W!!! I been studying woodworking for 3years now here in Sweden. I use DanishOil quite a lot and it is a wonderful oil. A tip is to put a medium heavy coat on, let it suck in, then you sand it whit 220p sandpaper (but just enuf) and last you just whipe/polish. This turns out great! Its also very good to put 5-8 layers on something like a landing net!

Cody. you need to lower your tool rest on the lathe. You're lifting the tool handle to lower the tip but that is dangerous if you get a catch the tool will be dragged in between the spinning work and the rest. You're tool handle should always be horizontal or slightly lower. Be safe Cody.

Hi Cody, I need to strongly agree with John Smith, your tool rest is way to high. I don't want to be seeing a video of you wrapping Gouging tools around your work and through that window or something worse. Please work Safer!!

Hi Cody. I have to agree with these gentlemen. keep the tool rest below the centre line and the point of the tool above centre line by lowering the handle. the area between your navel and hips is a good rough area to aim for depending on the height of your lathe and length of the handle. centre line of lathe should also be at about elbow height. a good book to try and get a hold of when get a good starting point is: woodturning - a foundation course by keith rowley. otherwise welcome to the club... woodturning is very addictive 😉

LOL at Mrs W in the end card, as she runs her hand over the handle, "WOW...How attractive". She obviously is a connoisseur of good wood. Nice job on that handle Cody, you will be loving that little lathe.

Not to be a safety sally, Cody, but many of these comments on using the lathe have merit. Lower the tool rest and come at it more fro the side, imagine using a grinding or polishing wheel, it is the same principle. Also, be very careful getting anything caught up in the rotating mass, at the least it could give you one heck of a surprise, at the worst?...Always use paper towel or something that will tear when applying a finish. You are going to want to set up a sharpening station for your chisels. I suggest buying a jig for your gouges, they are very hard to do freehand. I use carbide cutters that are replaceable for pens and most small work. But they might not be right for what you do. There are many good KZread channels teaching this stuff, you will pick it up fast. Just be careful, the potential is there for serious injury, and just like with a drill/drill press because 99% of the time the tool is so docile you forget that potential is there. Nothing like a large, unbalanced chunk of wood to come flying off at high RPM. It happens. Your first bad catch will scare you too. Lower that tool rest!

In shop class we had to wear short sleeve shirts or uniforms for any power tool use. No short sleeve-no use of the tool. Shirts or uniforms buttoned and tucked in nothing loose allowed.We had some girls from farms and ranches that took shop class to the teasing of the boys , however their having been on ranches or farms knew more about power tool than many of the town boys. The point being if the girls had long hair it was either tucked under a hat or they wore kitchen hair covers to keep their long hair contained.

Life must really be full of pleasure for you, Cody, you are SO enthusiastic about practically everything you are given, buy or make! On the subject of Danish oil - no doubt you read the instructions about applying it generously, then wiping off the excess after about five minutes. If you leave a thick layer, it will never really dry between the (6- hour) coats, and end up feeling 'sticky'. Oh! and check out what to do with used applicator rags - don't chuck 'em in a corner, they might self-ignite and burn down your lovely new shop! Lay them flat outside to evaporate dry.

The beginning of the dialog between you and your wife (especially on her part) is quite inspiring. She showed interest, and asked a perfect question. I hope to engage my wife in a similar way next time she wants to show me something she's interested in.

You should surprise Mrs. W with some new handles for tools that she uses in the garden.

Completely Agree!!

if you don't want those lathe marks on the ends just leave your stock a little longer than you need and trim it to length when your done turning it.

Cody I love how you are so transparent when you learn and enjoy things. I laughed when things actually worked out and your utter surprise was priceless and genuine. Anyine that works with there hands knows most of the times things dont go as planned.

I love how Mrs. W is so purposeful in her praise of the things you do.

I got my first lathe last year. I identified each and every tool and watched experts on the safe use of each one and worked through a series of lessons before I wrote the name of the tool on each handle. Only then would I put the chisel next to the lathe and use it for production. As I said I am a beginner, and I hate seeing the safety sally's come out, but you need to learn each tool by name and use, lower your rest and tuck your shirt in, or wear a safe shop coat every single time you turn the lathe on. Loving your videos and would hate to hear of a bad accident.

Special thanks, Cody. I have waited and hoped for a while, and now here is the froe. No, two! You also put a new idea forth, which is to be able to dismantle the froe for storage. These are going to look too nice to use. Good work Brother!

wonderful videos! Great project. After you're completely finished with the final sanding then soak the tool end in boiling water for 30 minutes or so then drive into the froe. once dry it will never move and will fit perfectly. One of my grandfather's favorite tricks for all his old iron tools. best regards and thanks for a terrific site!

Great advise... ... I never heard that one, before... Thank you very much... But I do know about heating wood, to change its shape... From that I would asume... That then, the handle should be made a bit "too thick", and then the softened wood will take up all space, and not just "lean in three or four spots or lines"... The wood will in fact swell when getting wet, and if using cold water, that would be counterproductive, because when it dries after fitting, it shrinks, and gets loose... But heated, like you describe, in boiling water, make the wood rubbery, and you can bend it, and hold it, and then it keep that bend, when it cools... So, the hot and wet wood, can be forcefully shrunk, when punching it into the hole, and then again spread out in the hole, to fill all uneven places in the hole, and that shape will be kept, also when it dries... Another way of heating the wood, is to soak it in oil first, and then heat it with a hot air gun, until it gets soft... You could just use hot air, but the oil makes the heat penetrate much faster... That way is used, when you do not want the wood to get wet... Ofcause one has to avoid "burning" the wood... Therefore, using boiling water or steam, is the "safe way", which will ensure the wood is not weakened at all... Natives, all over, just make the wood wet and move it through embers, from the fireplace... And make it wet again, when it seem dry... That way they make a crooked branch into a straight spear... But, I will surely try your method, the next time my tomahawk needs a new handle... :)

Wrangkerstar had a voice crack...... We're all children at heart

I like it... I really really like it. Great job Cody. Now to see it in action. Everybody watching this, give it a thumbs up, so we can see what's in the box!

Looks great. You may want to chamfer the distal end as well to prevent splitting/cracking. A thin parting tool is what you're looking for in order to create the three lines. Can't wait to see more lathe work!

I'm sorry to point this out but the handle is not finished, if you are as proud of your work as you seemed to be shouldn't it have your makers mark on it? P.S. nice first attempt and these thing's will improve with practice so I'm looking forward to seeing great things next winter!

You can also use friction polish instead of danish oil. You can't buy it, you have to make it yourself. It's 1/3 boiled linseed oiled, 1/3 denatured alcohol and 1/3 shellac. It really gives the best possible finish.

Number one rule in working on a lathe, wood or metal cutting, No Loose Clothing! Saw an amazing feat, when while attending school for machine shop, we had a guy that got his shirt caught in a lathe, and it took the shirt right off his back. No injury at all, just a shirtless stunned looking dude. And watch that tool rest. Maybe take some time to watch Scott Philips, The American Woodworker, on some of his turning episodes to get that safety driven home.

Great job Cody! What a great addition to the beautiful new shop!

One small Lathe for Wranglerstar, One giant leap for all wood handles.

"We can always go deeper right?" Yeah, but for now, just the tip.

Very Nice! Danish oil is beautiful stuff. My high school wood shop teacher recommended it for almost all our projects. It is amazing on walnut. IMO Be careful with loose garments or rags, especially near the ends where the spurs can possibly grab something. I know the chances are slim and the way you did it was pretty safe, but I've seen enough crazy things happen on a lathe, I cringe a little when I see someone get near the ends (centers) with a rag or long sleeves. Beautiful job on the handle and the Froes!

One great way I use to fit wooden handles to my tools, is I leave a small bit of material on the tang of the handle, heat up the fitting end of the steel part, and push the wooden tang through it, whilst the hot steel burns away the excess material, and leaves an extremely flush fit

Do you realize how many Danes gave up their lives in the making of Danish oil? Do you?

Shoutout from Denmark! Thank you for the kind words sir :D We take pride in our designs!

I loved to watch a first time user of a lathe and to hear the wow in your voice. I have always been wanting to try a lathe. They have always fascinated me.

Cody the hickory handle looks awesome with the light danish oil looks absolutely awesome. On one of the ends you should burn your makers mark, and for the finish use a bit darker danish oil to give some contrast between the respective handles.

Love the handle detail, and the danish oil is a beautiful treatment, I have a gun case that was finished with Danish style oil and it almost glows in sunlight.

Very nice lathe. Well worth the price, and the power switch is in a good location. I enjoy a good foot pressure switch, it allows immediate shut down in an emergency. Your technique will improve with time. There are several channels out there that give quick tips on lathe safety and they are worth the time to watch. The first time you have a catch and the wood chunk flies through your window... it will have your full attention.

give this man his 10.000 thumbs up. He deserves it !

Again, though I'm getting better at remembering myself, I appreciate the reminder to hit "like." Also, I just loved the little touch at the end with Mrs. W. Congrats on the lathe! and the fizz :) Look forward to more. Best, Bob

Danish oil is also Buckin Billy's favorite for axe handles. It dries faster than boiled linseed as well. Nice touch with the dowel button.

Hey Rod... Just a note... The two oils give a different "typical" look of the surface... Teak oil, can in fact be used on all woods, if you wish that look, and feel, and level of protection... As can Danish Oil, and it also works great on steel to prevent rust... But the teak oil do NOT add colour, so it does retain the natural colour of the wood... While the Danish Oil, made with real Tung Oil, adds a "golden" colour...

Thank you for sharing your joy. Great job. Your passion for learning others' wisdom is great. Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. Carry one.

@wranglerstar I got shown once, to finish work on a lathe, after sanding- hold a handful of shavings against the work whislt its spinning. and it will polish it really well.

I have a feeling that before too long we will get to see a videos on how to replace a window pane haha. love that you are working on the lathe lots of great turning channels on YT to learn basics

The handle turned out great! I'll have to check in to that Danish oil... Come on, folks - let's get those likes up!

FYI: Danish oil is a wood finishing oil, made of either tung oil or polymerized linseed oil. Danish oil is a hard drying oil, meaning it can polymerize into a solid form. It can provide a hard-wearing, water-resistant satin finish, or serve as a primer on bare wood before applying paint or varnish. It is a "long oil" finish, a mixture of oil and varnish, typically around one-third varnish and the rest oil

I love how your open to all types of tools from all over the world. I know you favor American tools (I do too) but you can still appreciate russian, Japanese, and Swedish tools. Also the handles look really good, I'm Japanese and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between your handle and one made by a Japanese wood worker.

Just to teach him a lesson I hope he gets a catch some day with the tool rest so high!

I think you did a really good job burning those grooves in the froe handle!

This video is classic Wranglerstar!! Love it!

i love how positive you are about everything, it's refreshing!

Hi Cody, the best wire that I've found, for burning, is guitar wire. A good piece of advice is to cover your lathe bed before starting to apply finishes as there are loads that will really mess up your bed and lead to my wasted hours of cleaning. My last piece of advice is to find some wood turning youtube channels, that you like, and start watching. There are so many different things you can do on you lathe, the choices are pretty much endless. Have a look for someone who has vids for beginners and you will be able to learn how and what the different chisels are for and how to finish of the ends of work so it looks nice and professional. I do love your idea about the inserts in the ends.

Great job for your first turning, Cody! I have recently become addicted to woodturning myself. Bought my first lathe about 3 months ago. It's a great hobby. Like many others have suggested, watch some of the KZread videos that provide instruction on proper, safe lathe use. A spinning piece of wood might look benign, but when one comes flying off at 2,000 RPM, it can do some damage. I would also urge caution about operating your lathe that close to a window. A flying piece of wood can easily shatter it. Maybe mount a wire screen over it. And wear a face shield! Love your channel. I've been a subscriber for several months now, and I am always looking forward to your next video. I will enjoy it even more now that you will be turning things on your lathe.

Dang cool. Watching your Intrigue and excitement was better than the actual work! can't wait to see that fro at work!

It is a tool used to persuade a piece of wood to split, or to "Rive" a piece of wood. its hammered down into a log and then you twist/tilt the knife, by pulling the handle, to open the newly made split up further, this is why you want a fairly long handle on these tools sometimes They're used to be a time in which quality furniture was made from strictly riven wood, because the grain runs straight through the pieces of wood in the furniture it would be stronger more resilient, and would last a lot longer then other pieces that were cut across the grain.nowadays its used a lot by bowyers and skimakers other craftsmen that need straight grained or i hope that helps

A froe was used to help cut planks of wood. I'm not 100% how it was used but I can imagine that it was used similarly to when someone batons a log for fire wood. Batoning is the act of taking a good knife or long blade that is longer the width of the log or small piece of wood, standing the wood up on it's end with the edge of the blade aiming down along the grain, and whacking it down through the log; banging on the tip that sticks out the side to keep on splitting the wood.

Once you've finished sanding all the way up the grits, grab a handful of the chips/saw dust and put it on the workpiece while the lathe is spinning. Gives it a really nice final polish

Nice to see someone Who knows what is good oil!

Eej Cody, I've seen Dave Canterbury make one handle to fit all. ;) BIG thakn you for taking the time to make all those video's (Y) Greetings from Holland.

The one that looks like a mortising chisel is a parting tool, the one with the point is a skew, and the rest are spindle gouges. The metal taper with the four points is a drive center in the headstock, the one on the opposite end is the live center in the tail stock, and the thing that holds the tool rest is the banjo. Checkout Klingspor woodworking. Their sandpaper is really nice. Sanding in reverse eliminates lines in the wood.

Nice work, really enjoyed watching you make that.

You started with a coil spring and a block of wood. Amazing!!

Great videos. I just purchased the plans to build your wall mounted workbench. Can't wait to get started

Great channel, great ideas, great guy! Great job!

not to be critical but you never angle you lathe tools down allways have them above level so the cut bettet and for safety resons also

I actually figured out the wire trick just playing around a few years ago when I was trying to figure a way to round the bottom of the channel out on a post I was making. Not to say that is how anyone else came up with it, but for me it was just by accident.

Looking forward to some shake making. It's been on my list!

A wood lathe is definitely on my tool list for "some day when I'm done moving around". :)

It came out really good.

A tip when wire burning: if you intend to have 3 stripes, cut the groove for the two outside ones first. Then it is easy to center the third groove by eye.

Cody, all you need is an old fashion Wranglerstar brand that you heat up on your forge.
