Woodturning| The Dragon Bowl 

Thank you so much Gord. Glad you liked it. I will definitely be doing more with these flakes... just need to have enough time in the workshop

Thank you Andy. I definitely enjoyed this one and really like the outcome. Will have to do more with these flakes.

Thank you so much Hans. The colour definitely works really nicely on the texture. Lol, yeah. I knew I ran a high chance of the screw heads snapping off as it was like the 3rd time using the same screws. No point wasting a screw when it will still do the job and it's not that difficult to remove.

Thank you so much Douglas, much appreciated

Thank you Wee Val! Really appreciate that!

Thank you so much,. This was a fun one to do and I am definitely pleased with the outcome.

Thank you Jojo. This is definitely a favourite

Thank you Japie, really appreciate that. Thank you for watching

Thank you Chris. Yeah, the chameleon flakes definitely give a very nice effect. The camera doesn't do it enough justice compared to what it is like when held in front of you. The effect o even better in daylight.

Thank you Brian!

Thank you Doug. The powders should be cool. Look forward to seeing what you do with them

Thank you Luie, much appreciated

Thank you. Yes the chameleon flakes worked really well with the texture

Thank you Barry, much appreciated

Thank you, much appreciated. Yeah, the colour is really nice

Thank you, much appreciated

Thank you, much appreciated. Go for it. It definitely was a fun one to do and the texturing took about an hour once I developed a rhythm.

Thank you, much appreciated

Thank you Huw. The powders should be really nice... Will look forward to seeing your use of them. The stylo may be underpowered for this sort of carving, but would be interesting to see how you go with it. Thank you again for watching and your support

@@JiggsysShed Thanks for the heads up John.

@WoodenItBeNice no worries. The stylo is great for finer detailing and engraving and it is nice and light making it quite manouverable. Any heavy applications will slow the motor. If you are to use it for carving, you would need to do light applications and let the bit slowly do the work.

@@JiggsysShed 👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you

@@JiggsysShed Nice job, I can see you have made it easy to work with the new machine. Your ability comes to the fore since working with the Herald. For every bit of praise. From turning wood, working with Dremel, or all processing processes, you did it well.

Thank you so much. It has definitely been a joy having the Herald in terms of the opportunity it gives in advancing my learning. Most of what I do is still experimenting, but then it's a great way of learning what the tools and I are capable of, but I have found it also gives inspiration for future projects... only issue is, time to do it all. Thank you si much for watching and commenting.

@@JiggsysShed Each new work brings more and more experience, and thus the quality of production. You are doing well, keep going, as long as you love what you do, it will bring you satisfaction. This is the essence of such expression, making unique, pleasure in the process of making and satisfaction with what is made. Whatever anyone thinks, if it makes you happy, so be it.

Love that. Thank you so much. Its definitely a lot of fun when I'm in the workshop and can bring some idea to fruition... the cleaning up after may need some work though 😂

Thank you. The colour shifting powders should be great. Looking forward to what you do with them... Will probably be out of this world given the work you do.

@@JiggsysShed na, something plain And boring 🤣🤣🤣

@@WoodWithD 🤣🤣🤣 I'll reserve judgement till I see it

@@JiggsysShed hmmmm, well it’s Yew, resin, actual stone (as opposed to the video I’m watching of pen pot right now), oh, some clay, the painted and a bit of precious metal in spots to top it off.

@@WoodWithD now that does sound interesting... you already have yew as the pretty wood, everything else will just enhance. Yeah, I'm cheating at pottery there.

Lol, no, they are good quality screws, but this was the third time I had used the same ones. I'm not phased by it breaking anymore (unlike the first time it happened 😅😶) as it is easy enough to get them out. It's the same case with previous times that they break. No point in wasting a screw, just have to accept the consequence.

Sorry about that. Didn't realise I had as much wobble in the camera at the time of filming. Need to improve my rigging as currently what I have is affected when the piece on the lathe is out of balance. Hopefully will get something more solid suspended from the roof when sort the rest of the workshop (hopefully will finally get time for it this summer)

@@JiggsysShed I suspected that was the case. 😊👍

@WoodWithD it's the problem when buying cheap rubbish of Wish... thought it would be good at the time, now its held together by clamps 😂

Lol, that would make for an interesting project too. Thank you for watching
