@DancingFox6 ok. Next time I won't include music. Thanks for watching!

@@BAILEYWOODWORKS I’m truly sorry. I must seem very rude. I’m sure others enjoy the music. In any case, your woodturning was interesting and instructive and your vase came out beautifully.

@DancingFox6 no worries! I am always on the fence with adding music or not. In full transparency, if there is music there probably was some bad audio or you could hear my breathing. I really hate hearing breathing during videos. No rudeness assumed at all. I really do appreciate sincere feedback!

I actually tried it on a electromagnet plate. it almost worked, but I could not get it centered.

@Leftycraig48 Thanks for the clarification.

Once the magnet starts moving, a lot more metals are affected. Look up magnet falling in a copper tube videos here on youtube.

@@washellwash1802 that is a bizarre thing! I never expect it!

​@@washellwash1802and that's because electrical current is generated by moving magnetic fields and electrical currents also produce magnetic fields opposite of the magnetic fields that made the current. The stronger the current, the stronger that counter magnetic field is, so metals that are great at conducting electricity can produce a greater effect than one that isn't as great. The result is the better the metal is at conducting electricity, the bigger counter field they can produce, which in turn has a stronger effect on the magnet (which will eventually stall / find a balance without outside force to push it along) For a real wild bit - most electrical generators at power plants use electricity to make electricity. They produce the magnetic field needed to generate by firing up an electromagnet in the generator called the excitation coils / field. This actually helps the plant produce more electricity more efficiently (aka more Kws out, less fuel in) as the operators at the plant can fine tune the generator to be optimal, no matter the demands of the grid. A select few power plants have whats called "Black start" capability, or the ability to produce electricity without external power and from a dead stop, and they're mostly used to jump-start the grid after a blackout. Why not every plant you may ask? Because it's ridiculously expensive to build and maintain such plants, and not all forms of power generation is compatible with the concept. In short, magnets and electricity are weird.

@@nathanielbarraza760 that is a great memory! Keeps the skills fresh

@gabekelly6356 yes, and I have noticed pine is not very consistent with density and weight, so balance is always off.

@toddatglencovewoodworks I am using pine. Since it is the first one I don't want to spend the money on Balsa. Later when I get the techniques a little better I may make a full size model with balsa wood.

@sdad46 that is a very impressive amount of time! Congratulations for sticking with it! I am starting to understand though. It is something you can get 'hooked' on! Thanks for watching!

@robohippy yes, I agree with all of that. I concaved the top by accident because there was a nick in the wood. I did smooth the lines some, and regret it. But this is just a practice piece with pine. I agree about not selling.. I don't sell stuff, but I think there are items that are much funner to make than display. If you know what I mean...

@ThePapa1947 thanks for watching Gary! I actually used one of your offcenter videos for some hints, but the offset part, I can't find. If you find it, let me know the title. There are some things I would have done different, if I knew a different way!

@@toddatglencovewoodworks thanks for watching!

@lenshandcraftedwoodsigns6033 thanks for watching! It was an unexpected win for an experiment.

@@BAILEYWOODWORKS I love when that happens.

@lenshandcraftedwoodsigns6033 yes, I would love to take credit for it but...

@@mstanifer1 thanks for watching! Unexpected results are the most fun!

@@spindlesworkshop9744 thanks so much for watching! It turned out better than expected!

@heathermacmillan962 thanks for watching! It really was kind of an experiment that turned out pretty well.

@copperowlwoodturning5929 thanks! It turned out way better than I pictured!

Sounds like your fence needs adjustment for drift... Check out Alex Snodgrass's Band Saw Clinic for how to set up your saw and fence!

@@ApacheJay156 it could be the fence.. to add to that, I had the same problem. Even very thin stuff. I asked someone and they said make sure the blade back rollers, top and bottom, are set a paper's thickness from the back of the blade and both exactly the same. And, put a new blade on. I did both of those and have had very good luck. I have been ripping 2x4s the hard way lately very straight.

that, is the question!. i have a lot of parts cut, but fist flight might be out the window!

Thanks for watching and commenting. I sincerely thank you for your waste of time and energy to leave a ignorant comment. I really feel like you are angry about something else and are taking it out on this video. I do not take this personally because I know that my work has more value than your negative comment and I assume that you are hurting and need someone to talk to. I am available any time here in the comments or find my email address and send a message.

@@ThePapa1947 it took some sanding and trimming to get the geometry right. I plan on making a bigger one that is a little more precise and figure out the geometry a little better. Thanks for watching Gary!

I used a website that I put in the description. You might know ThePapa1947? Gary, sent me a link to a website where they had all the dimensions. It is tricky though.

@@BAILEYWOODWORKS Ah yes, I think everyone with a lathe knows Gary!

We watch a little girl who is just over 1 yr. She will bypass all the fancy plastic toys and o for the home made wood toys every time. So fun! I also have found that the young teens love to spin tops. They actually put their phones down to try it!

@@BAILEYWOODWORKS That's great! Getting them to put their phone at anytime is a miracle. My ex wife (yuck) gave my granddaughter a phone. My son had a fit with her. Wont put it done. Phones are like credit cards to me. Life savers at times. An killers also. I'm glad you had such great luck on that. God bless you for it.

@@ThePapa1947 yes! Please send the plans! That would be awesome! I really do love making toys. Maybe I have a little elf culture in me.

@@copperowlwoodturning5929 right? Who doesn't love a good hammer opportunity. The hammer is actually one of my favorite tools, it can be used to break apart or bind together, same tool, same motion. It's perfect.

Yes, I didn't know all those words, but she is very observant and watches everything. She figures things out and does not give up easy. It is amazing to me how we can see those traits even at this early age.

Thanks so much!

@@Linda-y7u Hey Buddy! A shout out short will be up at 9am! Watch for it! Thanks for watching!

@@ThePapa1947 thanks Gary! She is so fun! She loves everything I do. It is so much fun.

@@WeeVal Thanks Val! She is a peach.
