Really nice work. I've been turning celtic knot pens for a few years now and they always fascinate people. Awesome job of explaining the process. Just curious, why did it matter where you positioned the color on the can? I might have fine sanded both sides to improve the glue joints. I've worked with metal in pens and it can be fussy.
@RJBWoodTurner8 жыл бұрын
Hello Don, Sanding both sides would guarantee a longer lasting hold and a better glue grip. I was hoping to see some of the colors from the can in the knot after turning. There was plenty of color until I sanded. Sanding removed almost all of it. I think the pre sanding I'd your best bet. Regards, Bob

Why are you concerned which side the pained aluminum is placed if you only see the edge of it when you are finished? Maybe you can avoid the joint by using a tall boy beer can. Great job on the blank.

Brian, You're right is doesn't matter on this design, some of the others I have been making show a little of the colored Aluminum. I guess I just had that on my mind. A tall boy would be a great idea. I picket up a Monster can that is tall and want to give it a try. Regards, Bob

What machine did u use to cut it, because my teacher doesn’t know if he has one. Would a band saw work too? Thanks A lot! Love your videos!!!!

I used a Scroll Saw. A bandsaw should work if you have a thin enough blade. With a bandsaw you should build a sled for perfect cuts every time. Regards, Bob
