This young woodturner Mostopher Dnouch can be found plying his trade in the medina of old Marrakech. With just one tool (a skew chisel) he turns a chess piece on a bow lathe that would have been a familiar sight in ancient Greece or the Pharaoh,s Egypt. See Also; ROMANIAN POLE LATHE FLASK TURNER

Instantly reminded me of George Orwell's essay "Marrakech": "A carpenter sits cross-legged at a prehistoric lathe, turning chair-legs at lightning speed. He works the lathe with a bow in his right hand and guides the chisel with his left foot, and thanks to a lifetime of sitting in this position his left leg is warped out of shape. At his side his grandson, aged six, is already starting on the simpler parts of the job. "

Truly inspired by this video. I made my own lathe just about like his last night in about three hours using some scrap wood I had around the attic. at 3 in the morning I was done as I sleep very little and am fought with nothing but ideas of crafting and my Army days of yore. (another story) I succeeded in waking the neighbors and building a great little lathe! Thank you for this video and all craftsmen. Sincerely, a student of the craft, as I'm sure I always will be.

Just returned from Marrakech and am thrilled to have this video on RU-vid. I too received a free turning (complete with the ring) and bought some boxes from the young woodturner. When he told me how he learned from his grandfather, I was sold.

Just got in from a Medievel Market in Antequera whereI witnessed a man using the same tool. I bought a few items as I was amazed by the skill involved. He made some fine pieces all identical in shape and size without measuring or comparing them. Such skill, I am in awe of this craftmanship

I can't beleive how people could desagree or dislike this ! We use modern machines and precissio tolos like dremel, gauges, chissels etc and he's only using his hands and foot making a piece of in a piece of art ! All my respect to this man and other artista like him.

Well this design of lathe is flawed. You use your weaker limb - arm, to power and less precise limb - leg to crave. Instead you could do pole lathe where you use your stronger limb for powering and more precise limb to crave. But of course craftsman is amazing.

WolfKenneth Yes Moron, everyone watching this video is aware. Instead of critiquing the tool, viewers are appreciating the skill of the craftsman. He probably can't afford to have a turning machine inbred.

This is great video! I was mesmerized when i saw it the first time in Marrakesh (the real thing). A boy cut for us "free gift" in two minutes while constantly chatting away. Then, of course, I felt obligated to buy something from his shop .... and then he took us to a carpet store... So his "Free gift" paid off well. :)

I don't feel stupid; just very privileged. Also, I will be tending to my skew techniques more now. When I see this, I do not see an artist but a tradesman who has mastered his work. Most of what he makes are handles for kabobs which you can see bundled on the table to his right. This sort of lathe is what the Vikings and the English found and modified to develop the spring pole lathe, imho.
@hitmanchild
@hitmanchild 13 лет назад
Thanks for your uploads, these people are great inspiration to amateur turners like myself. I think the most impressive thing about this man (other than he turned a perfect loose circle only with a skew) is that he just SEES center on the piece. Truly awesome.
