These are perfect projects to teach my grandsons thereby getting them ‘hooked’ on turning. By the way, it looks like it’s time to clean your lathe motor before it burns up like mine did.

I hope the enjoy! Thanks for the heads up. Sometimes I forget about the maintenance. Appreciate you watching!

Very nice. Great use of a colorful piece of wood. (And thank you for not contaminating your video with a music bed!)

Thank you Charlotte! I'm glad you like it!

Two beautiful works of art. I’m still fascinated watching you work left handed and parting off with a skew chisel. But I’ve mentioned that before 🌞

Thank you Michael! I try not to over think it...but that doesn't always work.

Great looking pair Rus. You have great ideas, enjoyed your videos since finding your channel. I'm laid up from shoulder replacement, seeing these videos helps pass the time. Although I'm reall anxious to turn again. Thank you Rus, ....Dan.

Beautiful! How old was the wood? Was it dry?

Thank you! It was dry. I've had it for a couple of years.

Love how you can turn common wood into such beautiful works of art. What do you use to make your finish? Thank you John

This is a situation where left handed is better. I like that I get a good view of what the chisel is doing.

Could off saved yourself a lot of time and effort. Just buy triming the log down first.

@@RcWoodturning I guess I can’t say much either. When I started turning, I started totally green. I didn’t know which tools to buy, that you were supposed to use a face shield and respirator, let alone dust collection. I didn’t even know if I would stick with turning or not. All of that stuff comes in time in my opinion. But you’re right, it’s a good idea.
