Hi Phil... Haha... missed this one... I was ranting on with the last reply and there was no need as you found this and will probably make some using your magical touch... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

just a tip - isopropyl alcohol will soften the hotmelt and make it easy to remove.the piece from the chuck.

Hi Mike... Sorry for the late reply.. I'm glad that you liked this one... I don't have a set size in mind, but they all finish up between 2 inches and 2.5 inches... Re- chord... type in "waxed leather necklace" on Amazon and there is a good selection... mine aren't actually leather... Thank you... Take care my friend and all the best from Andy

Well done, Andy. I will give this try tomorrow. Bob (from NL Canada)

He Andy, I’ve made your jig which works great, made 10 pendants esterday which are fab. I read a previous comment saying you liberon French polish. Which one mate as there are tins and plastic containers of it. Like the idea of wipe on, job done. Thanks for another great video. 👍

@@AndysCornishCreations Hi Andy, thanks for getting back to me..I’m fairly new to woodturning hence all the questions. You channel is great with loads of tips 👍 please find attached a pic of my pendants, a couple have no finish at all, the others have wood wax 22 but I want a better shine. I’ve sanded to 400 grit, is it just a case of wiping on the French polish and buffing with a cloth until dry? Is this product from Amazon the stuff you use. I have also ordered the laces. Keep up the great work buddy. Many thanks Mike. I can’t see any way of attaching pics on this message sorry.

Braw pendant Andy. Good project. Love the new lathe it must be chalk and cheese, day and night of a difference for you. Ive got the Axminster 1628 which is the same only older. Mine has operated faultlessly over the years and it is all the lathe that anyone could ever need, in my opinion. Having variable speed, forward and reverse as well as a rotating headstock and of sound robust construction certainly ticks all the boxes. Congratulations mate it will make a world difference in your turning journey for years to come.

Hi Cyrus... thank you... I I hadn't used it for a while... but last weekend I made a couple of pendants out of Padouk using the jig ... I had forgotten how easy it was ... use hot glue and when you turn the jig make sure that the face that you stick the pendant to isn't too big... then when turning you will be able to get around the back a little ...good luck with the set up ... take care...All the best.....Andy

@@AndysCornishCreations Yes, I noticed you were able to get both sides without flipping it, you can bevel the hole the other method, but one side is against the chest so that isn't a real issue, Great how to video, just got a smaller bench top wood lathe for jewelry, have full sized ones also, but for intricate work I'd rather be able to stay smaller. I also do metal, but that's precision metal work, mechanical things I create, wood is more relaxing to me and artsy, lol... Thanks again for great video, will check your channel for more...

Great project Andy and it turned out great. Perfect way to do an offset turning like this one as well. Very pretty wood and a nice finish. I am liking the French Polish. Congrats on the new lathe you will love it. Gary

Hi Ed... I have just uploaded the pendant and jig video ... hope this helps...

It's a beautiful pendant and your process well explained. The only suggestion is I, personally, would have liked the cord to hang parallel with the grain. I have made a few pendants recently and have used B&Q double sided tape with no problems, except for the tape sticking to the pendant and its tedious to clean off and never to the block. ( Murphy's law). Many thanks James
