After the demo, David came up to me and said I have permission to use his accident in this demo. He told me that if his story helps to save someone from the ordeal he is going through he is happy to let me share it.

@@jamescarter8813 Totally, I figured that and didn't mean to imply I thought David wasn't cool with it - I just thought it was a funny moment! I randomly stumbled on this video as a recommendation because I Googled "what is a lathe", but your engaging presentation kept me watching even though I'm unlikely to ever encounter one!

How do you finish such a lid? Wax wouldn't work so I guess it must be oiled. I guess you'd have to do the body in the same finish? Thanks for sharing.Is this using the same principles as lattice work?

Using tape to prevent the chuck from unscrewing is not necessary. Just run your lathe in reverse.

I can believe that someone would use a mallet to drive in a live center into a blank instead making a dimple with the drive center or punch! You could damage the race(s) and or put a slight flat on the balls of the bearing. Inviting damage or runout

I just use linseed oil or mineral oil and apply 2 coats…on the second coat of the oils and while it’s still wet, I just apply cheap $1 Store superglue because it it very liquidy…..it dries in 15 minutes and 2 coats of the glue it’s smooth and usually don’t need to sand at all…been doing this for 20 years

The lathes are made by Taiwanese company Xi'an Amco machine tools ltd, based in China. This is one of the biggest lathe manufacturers in the world, along with their milling machines and metal lathes. Around since '69 I think.

Not hard to turn at all. In looking back at the video I realize I should have changed the cutter on my round tipped tool. It is also possible I cracked the blank from the inside when I put it is my blank vise to square the ends. Sanding the ends to square will eliminate that problem. So, I say go for it!

I don't believe it is food safe because it could chip off in use. Better to use mineral oil or Mahoney's oil for that.
