Woodturning: I Think I Need A Bigger Lathe! 😧

Ойын-сауық

Thank you so much to all of you, and thank to all my new subscribers! This is my 17th video project, and it was quite a doozy. The yellow birch log had been harvested about a year and a half ago, but in spite of scoring the bark to prevent rot damage, the wood was very punky an almost impossible to finish. I fully expect it to check and crack, given the pith inclusion, but this piece is meant to be rustic. Between finishing the piece and taking the video montage at the end, I let the base soak in mineral oil for about 3 days until I noticed that the piece no longer floated to the surface of the oil. I did so because I noticed some dry spots on the finish where the wood was soaking up the oils and wax quickly. Once this piece settles out, I will apply an final coat of wax to help seal the piece and protect the finish.
I hope you enjoyed this process! Thanks for stopping by!

    That sucks that you lost the live edge, but you created a beautiful bowl. No one would know it wasn't the original plan of you hadn't shared that with us. But I'm grateful you did, problem solving and perseverance are great qualities. It's a great lesson when I show videos like this to my kids.

    From the moment you pointed out the bark in the tenon I was on the edge of my seat waiting for tragedy. That is my worst fear. (Flying wood). Nice save and recovery of the piece. Sometimes the wood tells us what it's going to be. Nice work.

    Hi David, I'm 'next door' in NS in the Annapolis Valley across the Bay of Fundy. I'm about to get into woodturning in my elder years. Yesterday, a salesman at a machine store in Halifax, who said he's been a turner for more than 40 years, suggesting putting a 2" X 10" on the shelf below the bed, then loading it with 1500 lbs of sandbags to dampen the vibration from out of round wood pieces. You have that empty shelf on your Jet, so it may be a very inexpensive option, before springing for a new machine. Another suggestion from me is to create on the bandsaw, a simple circle jig with a piece of ply or MDF, and a central line at 90° inline with the teeth. Drill a hole for a 3" or 4" nail as a turning fulcrum and spin the blank 'round that, which, will eliminate much of the wobble and shorten the time to rough down the blank. Many holes can be drilled and the distance labelled for re-use. I also viewed a Danish video where the turner was using an old refrigerator as a kiln, heated with an incandescent 100W lightbulb, slatted shelves to hold blanks, [both rough turned to 1" and unturned] two 3" holes at the bottom with 1/4" ply covers for air inlets and a hole at the top again with a 1/4" ply cover on a single swivel screw, to let the moist air out, once the blanks have been equalized for 10 days or so. He also drilled a small hole for the light cord. I guess when you have little money, inventiveness is the mother of curiosity. hahaha I absolutely love your work, how it's presented in the videos, with the accompanying music, explanations, finishing materials etc. Keep up the great work. Thanks so much. 🙏

    Thank you very much, Gord! So true! Nothing quite like cutting into the log for the first time and discovering spalting! Never the same.

    Well, that was unfortunate, David! But the grain and character from the spalting were just too pretty to give up on and I'm glad you didn't! Lovely piece for sure. And thank you so much for the shoutout! Billy

    I would love to see the pieces you cut off being used for another project. Very cool bowl. But the knob on the lid will break away very easy.

    Absolutely beautiful. Love the African black wood. For me the handle on top was a bit to large it detracts from the bowl. I love the use of the black wood to bring out the spalting. Just my input. Thank you for sharing again beautiful piece.

    Also yes, you need a larger lathe - it makes quite a difference with the added weight and speed control. I love my powermatic 3520b (and hear the new C is great), but if I could get anything now it would be either a robust or vicmarc
