Woodturning: An Ashload of Cherry Blossoms - part 1

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

From an ash log, I turned a shallow bowl and decorated it with painted cherry blossoms. Part one of this two part series covers the rough turning. Part two picks up after the rough turned bowl has been dried.

    I watched these back ash wards, since I watched part 2 first. Kinda like having dessert before your meal. Watching you cut on the bandsaw gives me hope I’ll gather my courage and cut my walnut blocks. Thanks for all the effort it takes to put these videos together. Camera shots are captivating and show so much of the turning it feels like you’re there.

    Hi, Cathy. I'd like to point out that I published my video in spite of the rioting called for by President Megalomaniac. (I'm embarrassed to be living so close to DC.) Thanks for your nice comments!

    Thank you for not putting background music into this video. Beginner wood turner here, never had any in person instructions. I’m glad to be able to hear the tool when it’s cutting the wood. Thank you

    After this one got stuck on the woodworm screw, I used a 24" clamp to hold the chuck on the lathe so I could two-hand off the screw - that will be my go-to method in the future. Thanks for watching, Tom.

    I very rarely do spindle turning. I did fairly recently do a couple of vases, which are essentially spindle turning, and I plan to do more vases in the future. Thanks for watching and for your comments, Japie.

    Use a mortise instead of a tennon, you won't waist as much wood !!!

  • @RickTurnsWoodturning

    Six of one, half dozen of the other. I alternate between using tenons and recesses for chuck mounting, usually on a multi-year basis. I've never decided which is best, although I'm leaning toward tenons forever. Using a recess only saves wood if you want to keep the recess for some reason, which I don't.
