House cleaning continuesssss... Our Patriot Turners- Member @Gordon asked our turners how they would prep a crotch log for turning. Lots of input from our gang on what he could do. Check out Gordon's post and read what has been suggested. Provide your idea, too! @RustyFN added a couple of beautiful pieces to our "What's Off" post. Rusty has friends who own a saw mill. They were kind enough to gift Rusty some gorgeous chunks of wood! Rusty provides more information in his post. @Fred W. Hargis Jr sent a question to Tim Yoder's "Your Turn". That's where Tim answers turning questions. Well, Tim answered Fred' question with a great video! Here's Fred's post and the Video from Tim Yoder- What’s Coming Up- If you missed Cindy Drozda's "Tool Talk" last Friday, She made it available on YouTube- For The Newbies- A week or so ago, @Fred W. Hargis Jr mentioned that he was still having difficulty when presenting the edge of a gouge to the work piece. I found this newly published video from Richard Raffan. This video has really clear, up close images showing the tool contact to the spinning workpiece along with explanations what is happening. Expand Your Horizons- Mike Peace added a second video to his "Tower Tops". In this video he answers questions and demonstrates some of the details for turning the top and the tower. Turning Time With Easy Wood Tools- Beading is a great way to add interest to a turning, whether it's a single bead or the entire surface. The process typically requires a dedicated tool for each bead size. Easy Wood Tools developed specialized carbide cutter that will fit on their Easy Start Easy Rougher; Mini Size Easy Rougher and Mid-Size Easy Rougher. The cutter radius are 1/8, 3/16, 1/4 and 3/8 inches. With this development, one handled tool can take the place of 4 different beading tools available from other manufacturers. These two videos show the cutters in action and explain how to use them.
