Great lesson on the effects of grain direction on the visual appeal of spindle turning Daniel.

Fantastic video Daniel explaining the the difference grain orientation makes to the end result. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw

Hi Huw! Thank you very much, my friend, I am glad you enjoyed the video! Cheers! Daniel

Thank you, Daniel! Now I've got to watch your bottle stopper video. :)

[@DanielVilarino]

Hi Rick! Thank you very much, my friend, I am glad you enjoyed the video! I hope you will enjoy the bottle stopper videos as well! Unfortunately, some of my early videos are in Spanish with subtitles, but the later ones, I have in both versions, English and Spanish! Cheers! Daniel

[@RickFarris]

@@DanielVilarino That's ok, Daniel. I don't exactly speak Spanish, but I've lived on the Mexican border in California or Arizona for the last 50 years and I can get by. ). Wonderful to see you again.

@@RickFarrisHi Rick! Thank you so much for your understanding. When I initiated the channel, I thought that doing videos in one language with subtitles in the other, was the way to go, and I alternated, one video in English and another in Spanish. Later, I discovered that editing and adding subtitles was almost as demanding as doing two versions of the video. It just requires for me to film the intro and last part in both languages and then do the voice overs in two languages, but the editing is the same for both! Cheers! Daniel

Very nice work I would use the last two as they are the nicest ones cheers Ian

[@DanielVilarino]

Hi Ian! Thank you so much, my dear friend, for watching the video and for the nice comments! One thing to consider is that in the case of the 90° grain direction, it would be better not to design a bottle stopper that is too thin in some part, because it would be prone to break in that thin part. Cheers! Daniel

Great video Daniel. I wish you would have used a spindle roughing gouge. I would have liked to see how it reacted to each grain pattern... Thanks, V

[@DanielVilarino]

Hi my friend! Thank you for your comments, for watching the video and for the suggestion. I almost never use a roughing gouge, typically I will rough with the skew. But I do have one and in the future I will try to use it to see how it works. I plan to do a few bottle stoppers and if I use the grain in different directions I will certainly use the roughing gouge to cover that point! Cheers! Daniel
