Woodturning - Eggs - Using a Skew, a Bedan, a Spindle gouge and a Beading tool 

Thanks John. Hopefully I'll sell a few!

Thanks Barry

Thanks Doug

Thank you

Thanks Leo! Typically I turned 10-12 more with the skew and no spirals! The Bedan surprised me. I suspect the finish is down to what amounts to a really big bevel to ride on! Thanks for watching, Dave

Thanks 👍

Thanks Luie

Thanks John

Thanks Seth

Sums up wood turning! Usually one wrong way and many right ways! Thanks!

Thanks Tim! I was annoyed with myself but it happens. Most of the eggs in the bowl at the end were turned with a skew and no catches. Turn the camera on and it all went to pot! The Bedan is a really interesting tool though.

@@MoleValleyMaker Sods law ay! The bedan certainly looks an interesting tool, I also expected you to use it t'other way up too! 😂 Full of surprises!

Well, it was the first time I used the Bedan in anger. I'm basing my use on one of Brian Haven's old videos on using Bedans and he said it should be used that way! He also said continental Bedans are used the other way round and made from square stock. I should probably do some more research! It works well for cutting tenons and I guess works a bit like a diamond parting tool as only a small part of the side is in contact with the wood. I have a gauge that fits on it for sizing tenons (I guess)

Thanks very much for watching and commenting. I have to confess I went back to watch some other videos to make sure I was using the Bedan as intended. I think I am but I think it works either way. Brian Haven has a good video on their use.

Thanks Bram! Someone had to crack that yolk!

LOL

Thanks
