My regular viewers know that I've experimented with different ways to turn a small hollow vase without doing the hollowing through the small neck of the vase.
This is one of the best options.
I originally rough turned this vase about a year ago. At that time, The rough shape was defined, tenons created, and some hollowing completed before sealing the wood.
After a year of drying, the wood is definitely lighter and dry. I proceeded to complete turning the vase.
What is different this time is the joint. To minimize wood lose at the joint and consequent grain mis-match, I used a separate internal double tenon to rejoin the two pieces together - the base and the neck. This way I could disguise the joint with a very shallow groove and bead.
This and hollowing from the bottom are my preferred joining techniques.
For final hollowing I used a deep hollowing system from the Southern Utah Woodturners club. It is a great system but only provided to members of their club. Commercial equivalents are available.

I really like your idea of using a separate loose tenon to minimize the grain loss. Great option.

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Thank you - put it to good use. Alan

@BeInspiredwithDominic 5 лет назад

Those are some cool and unusual techniques. I imagine using the extra tenon would allow all sorts or artistic concepts to be put into reality. Thanks for sharing, Alan!

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

I believe you are correct. You're welcome Dominic Alan

Another straightforward,well explained solution Alan!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁

FYI, you can use a hacksaw to part while your lathe is running at SLOW speed to lose considerably less wood than using a parting tool. I think you just federal law while making this video... using bowl saver & bowl gouges on a vase... ;-) =) =)

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Good tip for the hacksaw for cases like this. Sorry about the law. But not really. Alan

Nice work Alan. Great thinking to use a bead to cover up the ‘tenon’ joint

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Thank you Samuel Alan

@PaulLockwood 5 лет назад

Just one thought. As the join i at the bead and the bead is quite an eye drawer when looking at the vase, how about placing more than one bead on the vase, maybe one near the opening and one near the base.

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Great possibilities to further disguise the purpose of the tenon. Alan

@RayShaw007 5 лет назад

A very good video with some good suggestions that help avoid too deep a hollowing or hollowing when one has a very small neck. Particularly like the idea of inserting a waste tenon and perhaps making this a feature, like a collar, beaded or otherwise, at the base of the neck.

Thank you for a thoughtful comment. Alan

This has been an interesting series on alternative deep hollowing methods; I'm looking forward to any others you might think up or discover. Keep it up. I've used various diameters of copper pipe as loose tenons on both hollow forms like you've just shown and on itty-bitty boxes. Ring cores also work. Clyde

Great idea for vases. I'm just making some myself so I might try it.

@AsWoodTurns 4 года назад

Go for it! Alan

@HoppersLab 5 лет назад

take a look at it with a black light, Black Locus glows under black lighting. nice work Al

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

I'll try that. Thanks for the info. Alan

@cortlandhunt4721 5 лет назад

Nice presentation of the different ways of hollowing. 👍🇺🇸

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Thank you Cortland. Alan

@johnobrien4014 5 лет назад

Great idea about the hidden spline. I am going to borrow this

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Since borrowing implies you'll return something, how about pictures of what you do. Alan

Nice overview of options. I can see asvantages to all of them.

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Options to be used as appropriate. Thank yous for commenting. Alan

Nice turn. A lot of work for a small vase. I make them all the time out of green. By the time I have them turned and a hole drilled in them to accept a glass cigar tube there quite dry and done. I sell them at shows. They love them because they can put water in them. Twenty minutes max and done. One of my low cost items.

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

That is also a great option. Alan

Allen, I have watched your videos from time to time over the years and appreciate your approach to solving problems in turning. I have even been inspired to use some of your ideas, thank you. I do know it is extremely difficult if not impossible to change our personalities and I would never ask someone to do so. However, I would like to offer two suggestions for your presentations, First, if possible lose the scripted approach and be less precise in your enunciation. Two, use more in the moment dialog and less dub over. Whatever you do, don't stop doing your videos. God speed in your success!

@gull1969 5 лет назад

Floyd Houdeshell It would please me very much if everyone enunciated as well as Allen.

@AsWoodTurns 5 лет назад

Actually, there are two types of people: those who can ad lib live to a video (in the moment); and those who cannot. I've tested myself and found that I can do a much better job with a script. As for enunciating. My mother always told me to try to speak clearly. So, sorry. I'll blame my mother. But, thanks for your comment. Alan
