Tired of messing up a beautiful wood blank trying to make it round. Chip outs? Tear out? Blow ups? In my video on turning acrylic using carbide tools we explore three cuts - scoop / peel / finish. For wood you can use the same three cuts, but I have had a few people tell me the scoop cut is a slight challenge. So in this video we replace it with the square cutter and a semi-push cut. We take a blank, and within a few minutes, are ready to apply a finish. This new cut is easy to master and is a must for your techniques.
In this series of videos, I plan to take individual topics and explore them and discuss them 10 minutes at a time. I will use my 25 years as a pen maker to give tips and tricks on the topic. Each topic will only be 10 minutes. We will explore everything from kit and blank selection, to drilling, to turning and turning tools, finishing, and marketing and sales. If there is a topic you would like to see discussed, please leave me a comment. Thanks.
