Hi Dennis... Thank you.. This was fun to make and quite simple once you get your head around it... My 1st attempt was a bit of a disaster but this was the 2nd one..

Hi Ted... Thank you very much for your subscription... I hope that you will enjoy my eclectic mix of videos... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Huw... I can't remember if I had done any off centre turning before this... It was quite easy in the end but I did mess up my practice piece.. Haha.. The wood was fairly dry.. I've had it a while in the workshop.. but didn't test it.. Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Mark... Thank you... it was fun to make... Ahhh simple is what I do best... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Doug... Thank you... Ahh yes.. I have seen those.. great idea... Someone also suggested turning a hole on its back and using it for an egg cup... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi again Jude... I'm glad that you liked the little bird as well... I enjoyed making it.. nice and simple... Although I did do a practice one before filming and made a right royal mess of it ... Haha... With this off centre turning being small it wasn't too bad... the larger ones are a bit scary... What.. just a couple of feathers... no scarf... no sun glasses... Haha... just kidding... Ahh Carnival season... I'm with you on that one... there has been a carnival ever year in Camelford and since we moved down here I have never seen it.. not once... Thank you very much... as always... You have a lovely week ahead... Take care Jude.. all the best.....Andy 👋😉👋

Hi James... Yes.. its growing but hopefully still more to come... I'm glad that you enjoyed watching this one... Thank you.. God bless you and yours... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy Take

Hi Tim... It's lovely to hear that you have made some of my projects for your Grandchildren... I bet that they cherish them especially as they were made by their Grandad... that's very kind of you ... there is a link in the video description... click "more" to see it... Perhaps you could send me a picture of your Creations... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Steve... I'm glad that you have enjoyed watching this video... Because it's a log the grain goes down the length of the wood... I picked a log that was just a little bit wider in diameter than I wanted the diameter of the bird to be so there wasn't much wood to remove... The 1st hole has to go in the centre of the end ... The 2nd hole goes 20mm away from the centre in any direction.. doesn't matter... The face of the bird looks aligned because it faces directly away from the centre of the log... I hope that all made sense... Haha.. Enjoy making yours... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy..

Hi Denvermiller... Thank you... I hope that you will enjoy making yours and I'm sure that your great granddaughter will love it... I'm glad that you are enjoying my videos... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Jim... Oh dear.. that sounds like really bad luck...

Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Matt... Haha.. thank you 👍👍 Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi there... This is a great way to try off centre turning... very simple in principle.. although I did mess up my practice piece... Haha.. Yes I do make my own abrasive paste... one part diatomaceous earth.. one part beeswax and 4 parts mineral oil... by weight... Melt the beeswax and mineral oil in a pan ..add diatomaceous earth.. mix thoroughly... keep mixing while it cools down so that the diatomaceous earth doesn't settle to the bottom.. You can cool it faster by holding the pan in cold water...while it is still soft put it into pots... I have never bought any so I don't know how mine compares with them... Hope this helps... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Catfish... Thank you very much... I'm glad that you enjoyed it... Big HELLO from Cornwall... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Sue... Haha.. I'm glad that you liked it... Yes.. why not... I would make it shorter and fatter.. Then put an extra hole in the bottom opposite the other so that you can turn an off centre hole for your egg.. Great idea Sue.. Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
