Introduction to Segmented Woodturning: Part 2

In this video I take a trip back to Delaware to visit my friend Jim Whattam for Part 2 of an Introduction to Segmented Woodturning. In Part 2, Jim does an amazing job explaining the process of using the tips and techniques learned from Part 1, to build a turning blank of stacked segmented rings for a simple segmented bowl.

This is a very informative video for someone like me that is looking to try my hand at segmented turning. Itallows for creative freedom and the ease and cost of getting kiln dried wood. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching. I've been turning for 10+ years now and I know it's impossible to be an expert on everything. One of the things I'm trying to do with my channel is to teach what I know, and to find others to feature in my videos for those things I'm not as good at. In this video, my friend Jim Whattam does an outstanding job explaining everything in full detail. I'll be sure to pass on your comment to Jim. Hopefully I'll have more content featuring other woodturners in the comming months.

This is the best segment video for beginners I have found. I appreciate the details and his informed descriptions of the steps involved, part 1 was excellent as well. Thanks so much

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Jim does an excellent job with just the right amount of detail. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching

Very good explanation of the whole process. I'm definitely going to give this a go. I watched both parts of these videos today.

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Awesome! Thanks for watching.

[@dawnbigwarfe6871]

Your videos have been very informational. Thanks for all your time and attention.

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Thanks so much for the kind words Dawn! And thanks for watching!

[@brucebenoit480]

Excellent video for beginners. Wish I had found it before I made my first one.

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

I'm glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching!

Very informative video. I use a large flat chuck on my lathe turning each side and also use the large chuck to center it when ready to glue them together.

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Sounds like a great idea!

Hello Scott and Jim, it is an interesting video you have made about segmented turning, I like the video despite it is a bit long.

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Thanks for the comment. Jim had quite a bit of knowledge to pass along. Thanks for watching!

[@estetubo]

Excellent video, very informative with nice detailed explanations. Where can I learn about doing the jig that removed the small pieces, the one with the rubber band. Thank you

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Hi and thanks for watching. The flipper throat plate is a home made piece. There are a few videos here on KZbin about it. Just search for 'wedgie sled flipper' or 'wedgie sled companion'

[@dawnbigwarfe6871]

Neat jig

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Jim has nearly every segmenting jig there is. Each one is cooler then the last

[@davidwhite5901]

Just an observation when using the wedgie sled: slide the uncut strip of wood away from the blade prior to moving the sled back to the starting positing. Your cuts will be more accurate.

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching!

Very good instruction's! would be better if you would use the word uh so much(is hard to coup with)

[@ScottsMiniWoodshop]

Thanks for the comment. Jim is not a professional woodturner. He is our club's resident expert on segmented woodturning. Perhaps as my channel grows a bit I could get a teleprompter so guest turners (and myself included) could read off a script. But for now we're just regular people doing our best to share woodturning info with others :) I hope you found the content useful.
