Mike demonstrates how to turn a simple wood mandrel to fit the Morse Taper of your lathe spindle. This versatile mandrel can be used to hold a number of small spindle projects on the lathe without a scroll chuck. Projects suitable include light or fan pulls, whistles, pill boxes, ornaments and more.

Great video! Time to start making Morse tapers. You're quickly demonstrating that you're the Norm Abram of turning when it comes to jigs. He repeatedly emphasized the importance of jigs when doing flat work but jigs are not often shown to be used by wood turners. You're opening my eyes to a new level of efficiency. Keep up the excellent work! Take care, Rik

@MikePeaceWoodturning 9 лет назад

Quite an honor being compared to Norm! Thanks for the kind words.

Mike ... These wooden Morse taper mandrels can really come in handy. I drive a carpet tack into the end that goes into the headstock in case I need to use a knock-out bar ... reduces the chances of mushrooming or splitting the the wood..

@MikePeaceWoodturning 9 лет назад

I will have to remember that. Great idea.

Great video Mike! and as a noobie to wood turning have picked a useful tip ! Thanks for sharing. All the best Bram

Great demo Mike. Just what I was looking for because I plan to make some light pulls. Thanks.

Excellent!

@snoopdog68 7 лет назад

I like this video. I am a machinist and know the long winded way to cut them in metal but what you did is perfect for that quick fixture mount. You dont fool around you just get it done. :)

Thanks, Steve. I am still looking for a visit. Maybe do a video together and you can give me some pointers.

I love it! thanks for the video. I tried making one when I first started turning, but it was a little bit concave and didn't hold right. I think I'll give it another go now that I have more experience under my belt. I appreciate you showing the different dedicated mandrels you made.

@JoelElder2013 9 лет назад

Great video Mike! I'll definitely be making a couple of those. So I'm prepared for your upcoming videos. ;)

@MikePeaceWoodturning 9 лет назад

Sounds like a plan. I will doing one in the next few days on light and fan pulls.

@erouse666 9 лет назад

Thanks for sharing. I made a jig using one of my spur centers and 3 pieces of scrap so when I make a morse taper I something to hold against the piece to check the size. It looked like you where doing something similar in the video. May I also suggest you put a link to your blog in the description.

@MikePeaceWoodturning 9 лет назад

That is a great tip! Thanks, I updated the description and will do that going forward. It will save a step in my video editing.

@Tim_Pollock 8 лет назад

Hi Mike I've really been enjoying your videos lately. I noticed with your gauge you measured the length between the two diameter dimensions but didn't make note of it in the video. Just thought you might want to add that in the description or something since the length between the two diameters changes the angle. Thanks for the great idea of making these, there has been many times one of these would have been very handy but I'd never thought of it.

@Loan--Wolf 3 года назад

i am new to turning i have figured out for me about medim speed works for most things but i get the idea behind what your saying i can see a deference in the finish at higher speeds is a lot smother

@MikePeaceWoodturning 3 года назад

Slower for bigger things - bowls rarely faster than 800 - 1000. Small items like pens, flat out. Other somewhat larger things somewhere in between. Stay confident and comfortable.

@terry2346 8 лет назад

Going to make one or two this week from some of my scrap oak--rescued firewood-- I would think some of them would be of use in ring or bracelet making as well with a spring fit on the other end. Thanks

@MikePeaceWoodturning 8 лет назад

+Terry Ellis Good deal. Make several so they will be handy when you need one.

@anatolijivonenko6840 6 лет назад

@danceswithaardvarks3284 2 года назад

Cheers Mike. I've watched this a while back, but returned to it as I noticed sometimes people turn a spindle with the spindle "jammed (?)" directly in the morse taper. I can work out what to do from this video, but wondered if there is a SOP for using the morse taper this way? Thanks.

@MikePeaceWoodturning 2 года назад

It is just another tool in your chucking repetoire. I use for finishing the bottom of pill boxes and fan or light pulls among other things. Generall it is for turning between centers or on the end of something like finishing a pill box that I might texture. Otherwise it could vibrate loose. I have also used for cup chucks for turning spheres. The possibilities are endless.

@300chemidude 8 лет назад

Mr Peace was wondering where you purchased your different tool rests? Or did you make them all.

@MikePeaceWoodturning 8 лет назад

+300chemidude The longer green one with the nut to adjust the height is available from Lyle Jamieson. Just Google Lyle Jamieson woodturner. The short ones were made by a friend of mine. He welded a quarter section of steel pipe to a cold rolled steel post..

Can you make a morse taper out of hdpe? I have a stick of it I'd like to make a soft touch with it.

@therockereatsfrogs 9 лет назад

What kind of tool rest is that threaded one

@MikePeaceWoodturning 9 лет назад

Spencer Lyle Jamison sells them. He sells hollowing rigs and the threaded rest makes it easy to dial it in putting the cutting tool on center.

@therockereatsfrogs 9 лет назад

Mike Peace thank you

@R4x8 7 лет назад

Could you use these to use as glue blocks?

@MikePeaceWoodturning 7 лет назад

I suppose you could. End grain glue joints are not very strong. I think you wood need to drill a hole in a block with grain running perpendicular and glue it on to have a good surface to glue to unless you left the face fairly large and was doing a small project.

@R4x8 7 лет назад

I actually found another video of yours in which you epoxied a lock nut into a drilled out piece. I think I am going to go that route. :)

@MikePeaceWoodturning 7 лет назад

For convenience and economy, I sugest using a Beal Tap for your glue blocks as shown here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-G0yD8J4HyhA.html
