Intro to Coves and Beads (Woodturning for Beginners)...
This is aimed at beginners to woodturning and shows how to cut coves and beads in a spindle. Also I show how useful the cone drive is for safe woodturning whilst learning. Spindle turning or between centres turning is a useful skill to have for furniture making (chair or table legs) and for making turned items in general. Tools used in this video are mainly the spindle gouge but also the skew chisel and beading tool. Thanks for watching StevesWoodCave!

After watching many videos, your video is the only one which explains AND demonstrates why and how to rotate the bevel on the wood. Thank you for starting at the beginning. 😊

Thanks Melissa. Glad you found it useful. Good luck with your woodturning progression…

Great tip on the double cone fixings

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 3 года назад

Thanks, yeah, they’re essential when you’re starting out or an occasional turner 👍

I found this video the best I've watched. Most seem to focus on the cut itself and not showing how you achieve the cut by rolling the spindle gouge. Thank you for sharing. ☺️

Thank you very much Miss Tee! I'm glad you found it useful. Good luck with your turning...!

I’ve watched a couple of your videos. Interestingly, I also have a Woodrat and a Coronet Number 1. The lathe is very substantial. Mine is over 30 years old. I bought it at a woodworking exhibition in Bristol. I took it home in a Citroen Diane. The suspension bottomed out ! I learnt turning at school. I was taught not to use the underhand method. I am right handed so my left hand is palm down on the shaft of the blade and right hand palm down on the handle. That way when the tool digs in it is less likely to whizz off handle up. Things are different now as I watch woodturning on RU-vid. I guess woodturning is all about feel.

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 2 года назад

Thanks Jim. I’m a bit of a WoodRat fan and got into Woodturning after a mate at work gave me this little lathe. This Coronet lathe is quite small, but it’s fine for most things I make. I’m mostly a flat woodworker so turning is not my key skill. I think schools always teach the safest methods, they have to! Many pro turners seem to use all sorts of tool holding methods so I don’t think there’s only one way. Whatever works for you I say, of course, as long as it is safe!

Superb video, thank you. The tip about using a cone drive to reduce the impact of jam ups was extremely good.

Hi Steve thanks for the tutorial very helpful. I'm looking at a similar lathe to yours for my first lathe, it's missing the drive centre, how easy is it too find a new one to fit your lathe? Also is it easy to find compatible Jacobs Chuck's? Thanks Josh

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 3 года назад

Hi Josh, thanks, glad it helped. Drives centre, Jacobs chucks and other lathe accessories can be found at various shops throughout the UK (assuming you’re in the UK like me?). Try the websites or give them a call. There’s The Toolpost, Axminster Tools, and Yandles, plus many others you can find via a quick search. At least one of these three should be able to help you. Good luck!

Hi Steves - Thanks for this video, I would like to know where the safe drive (refer to minute: 17:25) can be found. Thanks once again.

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 7 лет назад

Milton Colmenares thanks Milton. I live in the U.K. and one of the big woodwork tool companies is Axminster Tools. You can find the "cone drive" on their website at www.axminster.co.uk/axminster-cone-drive-ax21250 I hope this helps?

@jacoboren580 5 лет назад

Hi Steve , great video , both the visual and the explanation are very good, can you please share what spindle gouge have you used?

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 5 лет назад

Thanks very much. This is a Robert Sorby 10mm spindle gouge. If you measure it it is about 9.5mm so it’s more likely it’s 3/8”. Hope this helps?

@jacoboren580 5 лет назад

Yes. Thank you.

@pauldenwood3506 3 месяца назад

Hi Steve, could you please give me some information on the cone drive you use and where you purchased yours, I am learning to use the skew chisel and have had a few dig ins which is to be expected but like what you have suggested in your video thank you kind regards Paul

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 3 месяца назад

Hi Paul, it’s from Axminster Tools (I assume you’re in the UK, but if not you might be able to order from overseas?). It’s called a ring friction drive centre nowadays. Here’s a link to it on the Axminster website… www.axminstertools.com/axminster-cone-drive-ax21250 or if you want the pair (for head and tail stock) look here… www.axminstertools.com/matched-pair-of-ring-centres-ax797244 Hope this helps? Regards Steve

Hi Steve loving your vids but I could do with help on the height of the tool rest in relation to the work? Ta Mike

@SteveCashmoreWoodworks 6 лет назад

Hi Mike, thanks. I assume you mean for a cove cut? I would say have the rest positioned height wise so that when your gouge is tilted over on it’s side the centre or tip of the gouge is in line vertically with the centre axis of the lathe. When your gouge ends upright with it’s flute pointing to the ceiling and the bevel rubbing (at end of a half-cove cut) then your handle will be lower than when you started the cut with the tool fully over on its side. Does that make sense? If not, ask some more... HTH cheers Steve

StevesWoodCave Hi Steve Thank you for your reply and yes that does help.
