Thank you so very much for teaching how to do this I am a new turner. I started in June of 2017. and I have made a box for my husband. He said that it looked good too. Just wanted to say thank you for showing how to turn this kind of box
As a "new" turner myself, I have watched 100's of turning videos. I'd never want to knock anyone posting a turning video because of my gratitude to them for taking the time. From personal experience I'd say that anyone interested in turning will not do better than watching as much Stuart Batty as possible. vimeo.com/woodturning
Despite the camera work, I think Steve did an excellent attempt at the box. I am sure in his own shop without the audience he works at a different pace. Why can't the overhead camera suffice. Shifting back and forth isn't necessary as previously mentioned. Nice demo Steve.
Rules were made to be broken. I've always had trouble following that 1/3 to 2/3 rule with pens, vases, boxes or anything else. It just doesn't work with most of my designs. It's refreshing to hear others say so too. Great demonstration, thanks!
My mom is almost 80 and i turned her an 8 inch box out of mulberry. There are hundreds of mulberries behind my house and several are on the ground. So I'm finding lots of things to make out of them. When i gave her the bx she burst into tears. She said she had one like it when she was a kid that her dad had made.
I don't mean to be critical, but the camera work is awful. You're out of focus a lot, and sometimes you're not pointing at the work! Otherwise, this is an instructive video, despite the poor camera work.
That was me. The main camera is mounted on a tripod with wheels. The wheels do not roll very well when the floor is covered with wood turning chips. I did not edit the video, but the view should have switched to one of the other cameras when the main camera is being moved. Sorry about that. I hope that you did not get too dizzy.
I thought that the comment was funny. I just thought that an explanation was in order. I find it very annoying when the video is jumping all over the place. When I edit the videos, I get rid of that jumping around.
Dan Douthart For me, there was a too much zooming in and out which sometimes cuts off what I'm trying to see. But thanks for making these videos available, I learn a lot from them.
burnt tools, catches, scrapes, bad angles and dangerous presentations. hope this was a free class. nice boxes in the end though but I'm not seeing the professionalism in this guys work.
Bonjour, Le tourneur est à la hauteur sans aucun doute mais comment est-ce possible de livrer une vidéo d’aussi mauvaise qualité. C’est très désagréable à regarder.
Just because you have a jacket that says you're a wood turner it doesn't make it so!............yes, you'll end up with a box (if you still have your fingers left ! ).........but what you did was more "scraping" than turning and you demonstrated some fairly dangerous practices........perhaps you should alter your jacket !!!
Could you please post a link to your channel so we could see how it should be done? It's clear from your comment above that you're of a different level to this guy who holds himself out as an intermediate turner.
