Woodturning - Outside the Box !! 

I might do just that. What would one expect to eat at such a party?

Thanks Clint. Much appreciated man 😊👍🏻

It’s an absolute pleasure my friend

Sorry I have no way of translating this comment 😕

Haha I take it you like the lid?

@@JackMackWoodturning Yes! The handle is absolutely lovely!

Cheers Brett. Glad your enjoying my video. Always nice to hear what you think of them 👍🏻

Sorry I have no way of translating this comment 😕

Thanks bev 👍🏻

Thanks Mrs W. What would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning For sure,treasured jewelry!

Nice one Rich. What have you been making lately?

@@JackMackWoodturning just chess pieces and tops on a mini from china. But i got a new half size laithe coming on the 16th. I’m busting. And soaking in everything i could find. Your stuff is really nice. Thanks for asking.

Thanks will, what would you use this for?

@@JackMackWoodturning Think it would have to be something really special the list is endless only it's size puts limits on it, jewellery, spices, special mementos or maybe end up with my favourite caramels Ha ha!

Great ideas. 👍🏻

Thanks Amanda. Glad you enjoyed it. What would you keep inside?

@@JackMackWoodturning I would keep my glasses and inhalers in it

Thanks Brian . Glad you enjoyed it buddy

Cheers Randy 👍🏻

Cheers Jim

Thanks Pattie. What would you use this for ?

Thanks buddy

Thanks M. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻😊

Thanks buddy

😊

Thanks mark, what would you use this for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning hhhmmmm....probably mostly ornimental but would be good for nuts and stuff...pistachio's maybe? A dip possibly...storing smaller odds and sods in.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks buddy, what would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning Sweets! I like aniseed ball sweets, and currently keep them in a open glass bowl. As a result of this, every time someone walks past and sees them, they take one or two. This little beauty would keep them hidden! More for me! 😋

Ah ha… you are a genius !

Thank you Rebecca. Really glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻

Thank you For the kind words my friends

You didn’t think it was a little too red?

Cheers vince

Thanks bill. I love the channel of using up my growing pile of off cuts. Do you do the same?

Thanks buddy

Sorry I can not translate this comment

Thank you Jose

Thanks. That video has been on my todo list for quite some time. Il get to it soon

Thank you, what would you use it for ?

Thank you

Thank you buddy 👍🏻

😊👍🏻

Thanks M. I might list this one for sale. 😊👍🏻

Cheers buddy. Glad you enjoy it

Thanks Linda. What would you use this for ?

I would use it for a display piece maybe on dresser for rings and things or for kitchen snack bar to hide those pink packets of pretend sugar. Lol . Either way it would be a display piece.

Nice one Steve 😊👍🏻

Thanks buddy. What would you use it for ?

He's been Blessed.

@@JackMackWoodturning depends on where you would display it. It needs to be seen. So probably candy. 😆

Thank you for the kind words buddy. I’m so glad you can take so much form my content. Thank you for watching

Sorry I have no way of translating this comment 😕

Thanks Ken. New video every week 😊 What would you use this box for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning yw, probably use it as a ornament piece sitting along side my wooden chess board/chest.

Thanks Doug 👍🏻

Thanks 👍🏻

@@JackMackWoodturning Your most welcome

@@JackMackWoodturning what are the woods that you used?

Thanks buddy

@@JackMackWoodturning did you get that pirating channel taken down?

I did. Thank you. And all the others. 😉

Or for herbs ??

@@JackMackWoodturning Why not 👍🏼

Thank you 😊

Sorry ?

🤓

Thanks Ali. 😊👍🏻

Cheers buddy . What would you use this for?

I would use it to store my sentimental rings.

Very lovely idea.. you could store rings on the finial too I guess

Thanks John. What would you use this for?

@@JackMackWoodturning Well first of all it would be wasted on my old ass , but maybe to temporally hold valuables , watch , rings glass eye , that sorta stuff.

Thanks daan, what would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning ooh, that's a good question.... not sure, i'd just have it sitting on one of my cupboards, on display, cos it's so beautiful to look at! 💕 maybe my secret stash of sweeties... 😆

Thanks P. Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍🏻

Thanks so much! Have you seen any of my other videos?

Thanks. What would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning I would use it for a trinket box. That sits right next to my ginger jar lamp.

Thanks buddy. Will you try something like it ?

I will and will post a picture.

No, the 3 pieces of wood come from 3 different continents. Very different piece of wood. What would you use this box for ?

Thanks, what would you use it for ?

Nice one FP. Are you a woodturner?

@@JackMackWoodturning an enthusiast , my transformation skills go to doll customising have a blessed day !

Lovely.. I have a room for that 😆… which is why I have to try to make stuff like this 😉

Thanks harry. What would you use this piece for?

@@JackMackWoodturning I'm not sure Jack, I love chocolate, so I think something like that. But I do know for sure that a piece like that would get a place on my table, for everyone to see!

Cheers 10. What would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning very good question. That would make a very nice box for the wife to put her rings, earrings and stuff into getting ready for bed (she is a very neat and organized person, unlike her husband). I have made her that kind of turned lidded bowl in the past, and she regularly finds such a purpose.

Beautiful. My lady is the same. Dressing table full of lidded boxes 😆

Cheers John. What would you use this for ?

Hey Jack, if I was still a pipe smoker, probably my baccy, but now maybe COFFEE :-)

Haha good shout John 😊

You too cookie

Thank you. What would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning, if I could do what you do, I'd turn a resin cylinder, (color or clear), to fit in center, and use for fresh flowers. Something this beautiful should hold the real thing. Or just place it where I could look at it every day and just gaze on the beauty of God's Creation. Thank you for asking, I hope I didn't minimize your part.

I coat all my vases on the inside with resin. So they are all water proof 😊

@@JackMackWoodturning, Good, so the inside is easy to clean then? It sure is pretty.

@@JackMackWoodturning, I was catching up on your videos and thought I was commenting on "cubism". Sorry if there was any confusion.

Thanks Greg, what would you use this for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning making money. 😆 I hope to be this good one day. 👍 great videos, keep em coming.

Cheers buddy. Just keep turning. I’ve been doing it 60 hours a week for 20 years 😉

Thank you molly

Thanks Ronald, where are you from ?

@@JackMackWoodturning State of Maine, USA

👋🏻👋🏻

@@JackMackWoodturning I attempted my first lidded bowl yesterday. It's not perfect but I'm happy with the results given it was my first attempt. I did learn a few things in the process. #1 sharpen tools often, it makes turning so much easier. #2 the oneway chuck I have with #2 jaws has a 3 inch/76 mm limit max opening. I think I will need something with greater capacity if I'm going to more project like this. #3 and probably the most important, never force pieces to fit, its wood and does not do well when forced. I can't wait for more inspiring videos from you! Thanks Jack, Roland

I’d say share tops is the most important of those 3 points 😊

I do see my work . You can email me at contactjackmack@gmail.com if you are interested in a certain piece

Thanks buddy . What would you use this for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning I’d use it for my bits and bobs on my dressing table like my earring backs.

Thanks buddy. Are you going to make one like it ?

@@JackMackWoodturning I like your work, creator. 👍

Thanks Sonya. What would you use it for ?

I’d use it for secret chocolate stash

@@JackMackWoodturning chocolate stash

Nice.. maybe it should be bigger then ?

@@JackMackWoodturning no can’t have to many chocolates. Nice fancy ones please

Indeed. What would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning Not sure

Best answer wins the piece

@@JackMackWoodturning Then I'd use it as a sugar bowl

Sweet !

Nice one K. Looks like you have watched a few of my vids today. Thanks man 🙏👌🏻😊

@@JackMackWoodturning most welcome dear friend ♥️🙏♥️... Please support my channel...

No probs buddy. I hope that’s a good thing?

@@JackMackWoodturningIn the meantime You should know me better: I always talk in your case from the best, the very best, the ulimative best. What more do you want?

It’s the same as all wood working. You need to use extractors to keep air clean and wear lung protection

Thanks Stuart. I just make a finial I think will look nice. Yes I’ve seen some awful ones too. This just comes down to people with a bad eye for design. The lathe is sold by Axminster tools but I’d not recommend it.. I’ve had nothing but issues with it. They have also put the price up since I bought it and they now sell the same junk for twice the price. The chuck is also sold by them but this one is good this is the SK114 … BEWARE however they also sell another middle of chuck the sk100 which is the worst chuck I’ve ever used and they should be forced to stop selling it as it’s an absolute piece of 💩.. this is think tells you all you need to know about Axminster tools.. they do not care about the customer experience or about selling machines and hardware they know to be sub standard.. the sk114 chuck is probably the only decent then I’ve ever bought from them 😆

@@JackMackWoodturning thanks for info on your lathe… when I upgrade I’ll avoid Axminster. I also don’t think they sell them on my side of the Atlantic but I could be wrong

The finial is a type of African rose wood. It’s very beautiful isn’t it

Not yet, on my list though. Do you play?

@@JackMackWoodturning Yes, every now and then. And it's more fun with well made pieces.

Thanks buddy. I think you might like my latest vid: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9C0q_VLZrhc.html

@@JackMackWoodturning Seen it. 👍

Nice one! Thoughts?

@@JackMackWoodturning Very delicate work with the handle. Have you ever tried to turn a stylised chess set?

No, I use wool after sanding to burnish the surface.. sanding happens At low speed generating no heat Burnishing is done with extra fine wire wool of wood shavings at a high speed and dose generate heat

How much would you pay?

@@JackMackWoodturning difícil mensurar as horas gastas. Todo trabalho artesanal pode ter o seu valor elevado, a experiência agrega o valor. Parabéns pelo trabalho, amigo

Hey Mitch. They are made by Axminster tools called gripper jaws BF

???

I would not recommend it.. but if you would like A lathe recommendation, I’d try Laguna or vicmarc

Gary.. this is lovely that you want to advise me how to turn like you’ve been remotely taught from Colin. I turn wood professionally. I have done for 20 years, I taught woodturning for over 5 years and turn over 3500 item for wholesale to highly reputable stockists per year. The points you make are very much things we tell novice turners so that they have a comfortable set of rules to work within. As you’ll likely know within whatever profession you operate there are things we teach the newbies and the way we do it as experienced, knowledgeable and competent humans. The bandsaw guard in my shop is raised mostly for the camera to see the cut, but also it doesn’t matter as I’m rough cutting, only removing bulk. The point you could make is to use a 1/4” blade instead of a 1/2” Blade to cut a tight radius.. but obviously as I’m not interested in hitting the marked out line I’m not going to take the time to reset everting.. instead we play it as it lies, to perform the task we want it to perform. Bandsaws are not the best tool for precision cuts. The only time id really want help from the guid bearings is during resawing. And even then I’d raise the bearings as bing able to see the cut is way more important. There are non ( or very few if any) times you would use a bandsaw to achieve a finishing cut. Meaning there will always be a process after the bandsaw. Your advice is sound but I think you’ll struggle to see the cut from a comfortable angle with the guides set at 1.5cm above the cut. If you use a bandsaw all day everyday I think you would find my working methods make much more sense than the advice given to weekend woodworkers. 😊

Mounting on a screw chuck.. I do all my production bowls this way.. the blank doesn’t need to be “square” to anything it needs to be firmly seated against the face plate of the screw chuck. This is done by holding the blank loosely with your hands placed as you see mine in the video and the lathe set around 600 rpm.. at a lower speed you will likely find the work piece will not seat firmly and that you will need to stop the lathe lock the spindle and tighten down by hand. Having done this daily over 100 thousand time without injury I’d say I’m fairly confident in the process. If of course you are doing one bowl a week you’ll probably find you have the time to wind the piece on with the lathe stoped.

A steady rest on a 3” spindle is madness.. don’t do that.. and the distance of the tool rest is determined by what feels comfortable to the operator. Having the tool rest closer to the work dose not in its self lessen vibration. Have a look through my channel, watch my working methods, especially with the skew.. and then let me know how I should adapt my working methods. 👍🏻😉
