Hand woodturning a two bar necklace holder

[@hermannstraub3743]

This is Woodturning. At the age of about twelve i had some lessons from an retired master woodturner and this is what he used to do. This is almost not seen on KZbin. Anyone scrapes weird useless thingies. I like your classical turning in style as well as in craft. Thank You.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you, I was taught by me Grandfather and our family have been woodturners for 300 years so the old classical ways are ingrained.

[@PaulLockwood]

Excellent as always Steve. I'm sure I will watch it again!

[@woodturner21]

Lol! Thanks Paul

[@scottconstable2352]

Your skill is level with these turnings is turnings is humbling and inspiring at the same time.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@bobaganoosh74]

always amazed by your skill, I swear it doesn't even look like you need to sand anything after that skew! nice work!

[@woodturner21]

Thank you, you hardly need to sand but if you don't when polishing the grain stands up more.

[@johnnicholas6962]

Great Job! I always learn something when I watch one of you videos. I like re way the spigot sizing tool works.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you, I am pleased to hear you have learnt from them.

[@DanielVilarino]

Amazing! I love the way you use your skew to measure.

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Billy it’s something most production turns develop as it speeds everything up.

Genius. Hi Steve, I do find your vids mesmerising, You normally do a whole set of Newels and spindles for a staircase in 4 seconds, so when I saw it was 15 mins long I was over the moon. :-) I liked that sizing tool. I have seen this done with spanners, but it looks like you have a few sizes on that one bit of metal? @13:40 you did a fancy cross over move with your left hand. Was that to support the spindle or is there another reason? Looking forward to seeing more of your vids in 2017 Have a great New Year. Cheers Paul

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Paul, yes I have lots of the sizing tools with many sizes on them. You are correct it was to support the spindle.

[@donnythedart]

Beautiful work!

[@woodturner21]

Thank You

[@hraun2berg]

This is great work sir good to see it in reai time. Question, sanding, the grit, is it 300 and 400? I ask because it seems like you don't need to sand at all after such a masterful use of the skews. Happy new year. Júlíus

[@woodturner21]

Thank You Julius, I normally start at 240 and go to 400

[@christopherjohnson3852]

Very imressive! I am returning my skew to the maker. After seeing this, mine is clearly defective.

[@woodturner21]

LMAO It has took me about 70,000 hours practice ;)

[@kirkbruce8]

Nice work Steve. I'm curious, it looks like the base might be to small for the size of the bars . Have you had any problems with it not being very stable ?

[@woodturner21]

I’ve sold a lot and never had any problem

[@aggrovater]

great video and project wish my skew work was has good

[@woodturner21]

Thank You

[@billy19461]

Things you learn from a master : not written in books just learned from generation to generation.

[@woodturner21]

Yes Billy it’s the best way.

[@thefish5861]

I must have a defective skew. It won't do these things!
