In the world of the Gonks - with Emma Cook!

German version of the video: • Freche Gnome drechseln...
In this video, Emma Cook ‪@TheTinyTurner‬ takes you into the magical world of woodturning and fantasy creatures 🪄! Whether you're a beginner, intermediate, or pro 🏆 in the field of woodworking, these cheeky gnomes with their funny beards are the perfect project for everyone. We use different types of wood like ash 🌳 and cherry 🍒 to shape the bodies and hats of our Gonks. However, you are free to choose any wood you like.
With simple techniques 🪵, we show you step by step how to bring these enchanting creatures to life. Dive into the magical world of woodturning and create your own unique gnome for your home!
Who else thinks these gnomes have a bit of a ZZ-Top vibe?!

I am soo glad you are still on KZbin.

[@robertcornelius3514]

By the way, I think I will try my luck on power carving some unique noses.

[@Kosh42EFG]

I really like your presentation style. And your skills on a lathe are awesome.

[@mikedoyle5362]

Great video Emma as always. Love my Gonk you made and it sits proudly in the living room.

[@SpunbyGreenJeans]

Lots of fun Emma! Thank you for sharing.

[@mirco.0414]

Very enjoyable video! Definitely like to see more.

[@jefferychapin5759]

Love the videos; going to need to build you a platform around that lathe, you’re all most hidden behind it 😅. Look forward to watch more great projects.

[@kenvasko2285]

Fun stuff, thanks

[@stevehood10]

Fun project for all abilities as you say. I think that's going to be an in house club demo followed by a presidents challenge for the weirdest gonk - with suitable attribution of course, only if you don't mind.

[@laurarivera5875]

So fun! 😃

SOU TORNEIRO NO BRASIL PRABENZ PELO SEU TRABALHO. MARAVILHOSO!!! 👍👍👍

[@jimgeelan5949]

If you don’t mind can I give you a little tip ive just come up with as far as cutting the fake fur ? Turn the fur upside down as you do and mark out what you want as far as a full beard or a thin layer of whiskers or what ever sharp you want and then with a soldering iron set at about 350 run along the line pulling the backing as you go and you end up with the shape you want and long whiskers no problem.

[@TheTinyTurner]

Who can spot how many times the gonks moved around in the background? 😂

[@TheParkAttendant]

I didn't keep count, but they were there alright.

[@sdoitla1431]

You have to make one with a Derby...😁

[@seanditch4419]

Hi Emma, why do you drill so deep when the hat dowel is much smaller? thx

[@eddiehall3599]

A great demo you make it look so easy one question how tall were they ?

[@TheStanford01]

You need a 'duck board' for that lathe Emma.

[@TheParkAttendant]

They look like Tribbles with hats

[@dorothyfoy7105]

Can I ask what is the circumference for the nose and pom-poms please

[@ЦенаГлупости]

Добра вам , куда делся ваш респиратор маска с фильтром и стеклом , она вам очень идёт . Станок уже другой и мастерская ?

[@malcolmgreenberry5542]

Hi Emma. Do you have a link to the company where you buy your honk beards and other sparkle dist used in other projects please. Mal

[@Kosh42EFG]

Google The Tiny Turner. Emma sells them on her own website.

[@ks-allyouneedforwoodturning]

Hey, we only sell These Sets www.drechselbedarf-schulte.de/The-Tiny-Turner-Baerte-fuer-Gonk-Gnom-Weihnachtsmann

[@randyrockwell6136]

Great video Emma! Not sure if it’s the camera angle, but the lathe looks awfully tall for you!

[@markb8954]

It really does, the bed of the lathe is chest high.

[@morgancalvi6675]

Epoxy works much better than CA glue.

[@jimgeelan5949]

What’s the point of doing a comment when nobody replies ?

[@Gun5hip]

NO!
