  1. Now don't be eating all of the candy for tomorrow night's Trick or Treaters!! Our Patriot Turners- @Masonsailor posted a follow up on his turning class. His students turned some tool handles and a segmented bowl! Check out Paul's additional information and more images here- @Gordon is working on some of that silver maple he scored! He has a beautiful blank on his lathe and gave us a peek at how it's going- See more images and comments here- From OFF the lathe and finished, a "Wave Bowl" in cherry and walnut. The design concept is from John Beaver. What’s Coming Up- Click on the images for links to more information and registration For The Newbies- @Ron Altier makes knitting/crocheting needles for his Mrs. If you know a quilter, Alan Stratton shows us how to turn a quilting tool. Great project for practicing your spindle turning! A close up view of using some of the typical woodturning tool, Tomislav Tomasic. This might be helpful to the beginning turner to be able to see just how the cutting edges interact with the wood being turned. Cute Christmas ornament from Mike Peace- Expand Your Horizons- Jimmy Clewes is a world renowned turning instructor and many of us would love to be able to attend one of his courses. Well, Popular Woodworking has done the next best thing. They have paired with Mr. Clewes to create a video course. Click on the image below to the registration site and more information! "Electrified" Christmas ornament form Carl Jacobson- New Turning Items- From Ron Brown, more information on his "Bowl From A Board" tool- Everything Else- Last week @Gordon asked a question about the variations in his bowl wall thickness. Several of our members gave possible reasons for this. Just happens that I had the same thing happen to me, yesterday, when turning a sycamore bowl. I was doing the second turning and had sanded and finished the outside. Had gotten started on the inside. I was giving extra thickness to the walls to allow some waste as the wood was quite soft and needed stabilized. I used some shellac and CA to strengthen the wood and would turn away any staining to reach the final thickness. As it so often happens, an "emergency" showed up at the front door. By the time I got back to the lathe, the bowl blank had warped. The blank had been dried to moisture equilibrium. Turning it to the final thickness caused the rim to have thinner areas. If I hadn't put finish on the outside, I could have touched up both the outside and inside to correct the problem, but alas, I'm lazy. Moral- don't stop half way through! Safe turning
  2. Today's local Ask This Old House episode has Tom Silva telling why he enjoys turning especially since he has "retired." It then transitions into his method for creating and turning a segmented bowl. First portion of Tom starts at 4:30 mark. Enjoyed hearing why he turns. Hope the link works? https://www.pbs.org/video/e13-lathe-turned-segmented-bowl-ask-this-old-house-aIaKHF/

  8. After making the chicken bowls I wanted to add an accent ring to a bowl and not waste my little supply of black walnut so I figured I'd just use my miter gauge to cut some segments and use that to make a circle. However they didnt' fit very well so I glued up 4 segments and hand sanding to get them flat then glued them into a circle... not ideal. Bowl parts ready for glue up. Glue up of the parts... on the right is the first chicken bowl. Not happy with that it's just wrong. The finished bowl... getting a bit better but not there yet. Woody III doing a cat scan of the bowl Did a bit more finish work with sand paper Finished Not happy with the segments... a bit of research and I built a segment jig... JT
  9. Ok I'm on to something new. I must have ADD! Can't stay on one thing for too long. I've been looking @ Youtube videos about making stacked ring bowls after cutting the rings on a lathe as opposed to band sawing the ring sections out. It seems that in order to use the lathe & cut the rings out a "thin parting tool" is used. My experience with a standard parting tool is to work the groove in widths that allow the tool to do its job & not bind in the cut. In the videos the author/presenter just rides the same groove until the ring is cut loose. All w/o binding in the cut. So my questions: #1 Does anyone know of a source for a "thin parting tool"? All the ones that I've seen seem to be about standard thickness. #2 The AAW forum has a Q & A that some respondents say to make your own from "sawzall or hack saw blades or a kitchen knife". In my mind all those are too thin and asking for trouble. And not just from SWMBO. #3 Can I make one from an OLD small file after grinding the teeth off the file and shaping the cutting point. How much of a PIA would that entail? I'm assuming that a file should be stiffer and less likely to break than a sawzall blade! #4 Any words of wisdom/caution? Thks smitty
  10. Hi all, After a long hiatus, I finally got to fire up the lathe and try out the tools I won at Christmas. So I decided to jump in head first and polish those segmenting skills. The oak and walnut started as a bowl but morphed into a vasey basket thing when one of the rings exploded inside the planer. The walnut bowl was the second attempt with the same design. It has a flaw in that I had to remount it and it became off center resulting in an uneven wall. The tools made short work of blending the rings and the finishing tool is now my new favorite. I have a third bowl in the press, now. It is a bubinga bowl made of 24 pc. rings and stacked to 7 inches. The final ring is Gabon ebony and will become the bowl rim. Ebony has its own challenges but I am hopeful of the end result. Sorry it took so long to post, but the last few months were insane. My therapy / wood shop is about to get a long workout :-) Kevin
