I have been woodturning now for about 5 weeks and I thought I would try to make something for my boys, who both like Harry Potter! I also wanted to try out my new carbide tools. They were effective, but did leave a very rough finish. I am glad I spent so much time practicing with the skew chisel at the start of my journey as this quickly cleaned them up.
I made two wands and made mistakes on each, but learnt a lot from both projects, so time well spent as far as I'm concerned.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video - let me know in the comments which wand you think is best. Oh and if you could hit the like button and subscribe to the channel that would mean a lot to me - thank you.

Ben's Got Wood
A bit about me - my name is Ben and this channel is documenting my very first attempts at woodturning. As a beginner, I'm eager to explore the art of shaping wood into beautiful, functional pieces through the mesmerising process of woodturning.
Through trial and error, I'm learning valuable lessons and gaining insights that will shape my skills. If you are a seasoned woodturner, I'd appreciate any help and guidance along the way - I know I have a lot to learn!

Here are some of my videos so far! - • Woodturning - Shedding...
Thank you for being a part of this incredible experience!
Please note my videos are for entertainment purposes only and are not meant as instructional videos. I am not a professional woodturner and some of the techniques I use are trial and error and probably not correct - in fact I'm surprised I still have all my fingers! I hope you enjoy the videos!
