@@amsbeats841 I went to China on a guided tour once. They took us to places like pearl oyster farms, silk factories, etc. One place we visited was a jade processing factory. Seeing things like this being carved out of jade was an amazing experience.

Several years ago I got into this bent of carving mushrooms with my pocket knife, and it quickly became an obsession with carving corkscrew stems. I did all of the work by hand, down to polishing them to a mirror finish and glazing them with several coats of linseed oil. I have a few remaining on my display shelf to this day and would have several more if all my attempts succeeded. But with as delicate as my carvings were they only had about a 10% survival rate. I broke most of them, either towards the end of the carving or sometime during the sanding process. One thing I always wanted to try was a double stemmed corkscrew mushroom, but never had the courage. I love to see that you were able to succeed. What beautiful work you've done!

Jack; Really liked your video so much that I tried it. I started out with a dried piece of mesquite. I turned it down to about the size you did changing to a vase/candleholder design. When measuring out for the twists, I made it for six one inch increments lengthwise and measured the circumfrance to be 10 1/2 inches divided it by six to get the distances between squares. This ended up giving me 3 twists instead of two that you did (don't ask me why). To help reduce the hand cutting with the dremel, I used a fortsner bit on a drill press to carefully drill down into the twists about half way which helped quite a bit. The rest I pretty much followed your video. Thanks for the neat idea of which I plan on doing some more variations in the future.

Maybe I'm just spatially stupid, but I was having a hard time visualizing how that was going to happen until just before it actually did. Then I had an "ah-ha!" moment, and the twist broke through and popped into existence!

@@JackMackWoodturning Thanks for reading the comment on the idea Jack. I like seeing artwork at it's best and keep going Jack. Oh! Try using a powerful green laser like those 900 mile or 1watt laser pointers to light the crystal up. Lasers give a cooler appearance then LED. You can get them very cheat on Ebay. !!!Warning on powerful green lasers, they can damage the eye due to the brightness and wattage so don't look at it directly especially on white surfaces like paper. They will leave a dark spot on your vision if you look at it for a few seconds and will take a minute or so to disappear.

Very skillful use of the gouges, skew and scraper chisels - not a catch to be seen. Most satisfying to watch.

I have a metal lathe which could be used to turn the spiral in wood so I assumed that was what you would do. But no... you used a Dremel to hog out the material so much praise for the fine job you did . I experimented with turning different wood densities such as black walnut and red cedar stacked. I first did that in high school shop. Learned a lot about what happens when you use different density woods. I always thought I would do a more elaborate turning using unusual mixes of wood types/densities. That is another rainy day project.

@@SkekPsys it seems unfair to imply that iv baited you into clicking my video. As with mine and all other woodturning videos the title starts with “WOODTURNING-“ this is the “topic” The name of the video or the item being made in this case is the second part of the title. In this case I chose “the twist” for obvious reasons.. it’s not my fault that 1 in 100 people who see it created their own unrealistic expectations for the video and then feel some how conned because what you see in the video didn’t measure up to your expectations. It’s all good to say how you feel but chucking a somewhat offensive term like click bait around is not fair. I didn’t set your expectations you did. Appreciate you watching all the same. Sorry you didn’t enjoy it

You are truly a gifted skilled visionary! I have never seen your equal. Thanks for sharing...and helping me think about my dad who loved woodworking so much. Thanks again

Outstanding video. I’m sitting here on a Sunday morning watching it with a cup of coffee thinking: “I sure wish I could do that” !!! Thanks for posting.

Love those long strips you take when you turn, you keep your tools as sharp as your skills.

I did the same thing with a 10' peice of walnut. Used a black shaping disc on an angle grinder. Did a twist for about 7' of the run, sealed it in Marine grade epoxy resin, and now use it as a push pole when I'm fishing the flats 😉

Don't be shy to start, you don't have to go in all Gung hoe but look up diy lathe and for $10 in parts and an hour build you could turn small spindles with a cheap drill.. just saying 😌
