KD Oak Earring Stand- Hand woodturning in real speed.

[@elainefeather9465]

A joy to watch and a beautiful project . I will be watching this and many of your other video’s over and over !

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@trevorcurry5521]

The best wood turner I've seen!!

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@hotrodhog2170]

I am the one that asked yesterday in Woodchuckers group if you had a channel and replied that I subbed. I just can't over how you use the skew for everything! Amazing Steve.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you and I’m glad you enjoy the videos

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

I've never seen anyone use a skew chisel with such speed and dexterity. Fabulous. I try to avoid the skew as I usually end up with lumps of wood thinking they're projectiles! I've also rarely seen the scraper used with such speed and demonstrating it's sharpness. Subbed! 👍👍👍👍

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@stephenwelch4518]

Everyone tells me that using a skew chisel is so difficult, but you make it look so easy. Beautiful work and thanks for sharing.

[@woodturner21]

Thank You

[@seanmcentee4454]

I've watched several of your videos in the past hour and with all of them the first thing I notice, apart from your facility with your tools, is how perfectly sharp they are. It is evident from the way the chips fly and the ease of your cuts that your skill in turning is mated with your skill at sharpening. I would love to see some video of your sharpening techniques. You've clearly mastered that skill as well.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to post them. I sharpen my tools freehand on an. 8" grinding wheel so nothing special.

[@OliverswoodturningCoUk]

Think I could watch you turn all day the easy it which you flow the skew around the wood is second to none. All the best Ed

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Ed comments are much appreciated especially from people who take such a great interest in woodturning.

[@rexoats8008]

Fantastic tool skill, you make it look so easy. Just found your channel. So laid back and a joy to watch. It's like the old saying "It's easy when you don't know how, more difficult when you do" , your proof of that. Exceptional .

[@woodturner21]

Thank you for your kind words Rex

[@acolyteturner]

An excellent display of basic skills Steve. The economy of movement and tools really demonstrate your 35 years as a professional turner! Tom

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Tom your comments are appreciated

[@MikeWaldt]

A superb demonstration of skill Steve, and a beautiful piece at the end. Like the drill indexer, and the thought process that goes into making the most efficient production run. All the best Mike

[@woodturner21]

Thanks again Mike your comments are always most appreciated

[@rodneysharpe5832]

Im bowled over Brother, by your skill and how you make using a variety of chisels soo easy.. just getting started so im hoping someday to emulate what ive seen here. Rodney

[@woodturner21]

+rodney sharpe Thanks Rodney, keeppracticing and you will find it becomes so much easier. I hope to see some videos from you in the future.

[@langy011]

Excellent work as always. Even the wife loves to watch your videos in the way you make things look so easy. Paul

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Paul, great to hear your wife enjoyed it too

[@cbkipper]

Wow these are some high quality skills shown on that "Simple project". I cant wait to watch you turn something difficult!!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Chris for your kind comments

[@bertdelisle393]

Steve, I stumbled onto your video by searching for drill indexing. Sure glad I did, you are amazingly efficient and your tool presentation is awesome. And the simplicity of the drill indexing table is just what I was looking for, I had some ideas but once I saw your setup I realized I was overthinking the task. I now have three interchangeable index ratchet wheels for my version of the drilling jig. I love the flexibility and freedom to make the hanger disk OD any size the wood will allow and still be able to easily drill evenly spaced holes without having to do any layout. I am hoping to have a few made for Christmas. Thanks for sharing.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you I am pleased it has helped.

[@georgev5620]

Beautiful piece! Very impressive tool skills! I can only hope to be half as skilled someday! I'm going to make one of these for my daughter, although I am sure it will pale in comparison to this beautiful work of art! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@MrTaylorcraft]

Very impressive skills with the skew and overall design. Thank you!

[@woodturner21]

Thank You

[@scottconstable2352]

Great to watch. Very obvious that repetition makes for honed skills. Love the drilling system.

[@woodturner21]

Thank You

[@trevorhuntley8093]

I read on twitter you were unsure about doing a video on your earring stand, i'm so glad you did, fantastic skew work and the indexing drilling jig. Trevor

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Trevor. I am pleased I did as the comments have been good. Thank you for taking time to comment it helps knowing that it has been worthwhile. I had little response on Twitter and I was worried as I don't like putting things on KZbin that have been done too many times before.

[@adamquincey4371]

Excellent...! It's such a pleasure working you turn and the control with your skew is amazing...! Cheers...

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Adam. You kind words are much appreciated

[@yuvallahav]

That is one beautiful earing holder, loved especially the finial on top. The first song was so relaxing, yet reminded me somewhat of Billy Joel's music, I can't have enough of that :) Thank you for sharing!! :)

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Yuval your comments are much appreciated

[@Bramsshed1913]

Beautiful job Steve and the indexing jig looks an intriguing piece of kit. Great video,Cheers, Bram.

[@woodturner21]

+Brams shed Thanks Bram, glad you enjoyed it. Steve

[@adamsimon7402]

Outstanding job. Very nicely done. I also like the indexing jig for the drill press. Very uniquely.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Adam your comments are appreciated

[@NineteenSeventy0ne]

I hope one day I can have half the skew skill you have, you make it look so easy when it's definitely not. Love the indexing jig too, excellent vid. Pete

[@woodturner21]

+NineteenSeventy0ne Thank you Pete your comments are appreciated

[@markchoitz443]

nice project, really like the jig you made to drill the holes, thanks.

[@JimsonMakes]

You make it look so easy ! The skew is a great tool but takes a long time to master. Enjoyed watching.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you for your kind words. I am pleased you enjoyed the video

[@nickyfoley57]

I have been following you IG for a while,I love your short videos and I am glad found your you tube channel. Your tool skills unbelievable, well done and keep up the great work.

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Nicky, your comments are apreciated.

[@angelamullins8574]

was fascinated by your video and the end product is beautiful.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@Tommo158]

Absolutely amazing work Steve, you make it look so simple 😁. That is a brilliant jig for making your indexed holes, much simpler than messing around on the lathe, hope you could do an instructional video on how to make one please.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Tom, I doubt I will find time to do a video on making one but they really are simple. If I get chance I’ll post some details

[@zackodom38]

Really enjoyed your video! Hope one day I can become half the Turner you are! Keep posting.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Zack, your comments are appreciated

[@mikep6494]

WOW! You don’t mess around! Your a master on the lathe. I bet you could make a awesome chess set. Thanks for the video.

[@woodturner21]

Thank you, I have made a few chess sets.

[@gordroberts53]

amazing tool skills. Certainly gives me a high point to aim for. Thanks for sharing.

[@woodturner21]

Thankyou for your comments they are appreciated

[@ibccoasterman]

Very beautiful work! This makes me want to get a lathe and try my hand at it.

[@woodturner21]

Sorry for the late reply but thank you for your comments. Why not give it a go it makes a brilliant hobby.

[@PauloAzuaga]

Beautiful....! Very nice art work...! Thanks!

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@PauloAzuaga]

You don't have to thank me because you deserve my simple words... as you are an artist... Pls keep on going making your art and sharing it with us... We do have to thank you...

[@NMranchhand]

Well, that’s just a stunner!

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@rudyglismann1275]

Your work always astonishing on how you make it look so easy. And close to perfection. What took you 19 min....well it would take a multiplier of 4 plus sanding. Keep them coming. Thanks

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Rudy. Pleased you enjoyed it and your comments are appreciated

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

Really enjoyed this, thank you. Great design and great tooling...I was just thinking, though they may look the same I bet there are subtitle differences in each.... 👍🏼😊

[@woodturner21]

Thank you. They are pretty close and if customer specifies they can be spot on.

[@ISTOmaker]

Fantastic job!

[@dennisbuckner6957]

your skill is just amazing mate as usual any chance one day of getting a slow look at your tools so it easier to see how they are ground cheers...I cant tell if you hone them or not

[@woodturner21]

+dennis buckner Hi Dennis thanks for your comments. I mostly use my tools straight of the grind stone but do hone now and then. Email me and if I get chance I can send pics of the freehand grinds. Which tools do you want to see? [e-mail]

[@matthewchapman896]

Impressive work, thank you.

Thank you

Thank you Frank

Thank you Kirk

[@indralapurshotham2895]

Amazing wood wark

[@adrianbarber7490]

what do you do with the hole in the base Very nice earing stand

[@woodturner21]

Thank you Adrian. These have to be made to a tight budget hence the methods used. I just fill the hole and cover the base with baize

[@stevemitchell1265]

Your videos inspire me. I hope you can post more of them. I see your skew is charpened different from most and the corners are dubbed. Can you post a vbideo showing what angles your tools are sharpened to and the dubbing of the corners/edges, etc? Not a tutorial so much as showing what your tools look like? I see you have 12mm, 20mm and 26mm. or am i guessing wrong?

[@woodturner21]

you are guessing wrong, I only use a 25mm skew with the corners of the bevel softened. I used a 10mm parting tool for the tenon. if you are on Facebook there are videos and lots more clips for you to see my skew. the page is TheWoodturners

[@tonyp8032]

Hi, me again. I took inspiration from this vid and am using a similar technique (Christmas present idea). I do have one query: do you do anything about the hole in the bottom of the base or leave as is? I was wondering about plugs or even felt covering the base etc. Thanks.

[@woodturner21]

Hi, I plug them and cover with baize, if you don’t want this you can use a Chuck and either glue block or leave the recess but it’s not really necessary and time consuming.

[@AllenORourke1954]

A master class matey...👍👍👍

[@barryparks8055]

Brilliant Well Done

[@woodturner21]

Thank you

[@stevekrumanaker4582]

I think I'm gonna try this, it looks really easy! Highest praise I can give cause I know it's not! Steve Krumanaker

[@woodturner21]

Thanks Steve, I always accept the statement it looks easy as high praise.

[@jaywoodson2231]

real turn master!

[@stevejones1823]

Thank you

[@egeoffreyfrakes2498]

Hi STEVE the small negative rake scrapper you use what are the angles you use to sharpen it, or do you just grind it to what looks right for you.

[@woodturner21]

Hi Geoffrey, your right I just grind it freehand to what looks right. Not sure on the angles

[@egeoffreyfrakes2498]

You seem to grind one slightly less than the other so I'll try that and see how I get on.

[@woodturner21]

If you email me I shall send you a picture. [e-mail]

[@thefish5861]

I thought that tool was for opening paint cans?

[@woodturner21]

Practice and you’ll open cans in seconds

[@thefish5861]

Good one!

[@thefish5861]

How come you get to start with 180 grit, and I usually have to start with 60???

[@woodturner21]

Sharp tools and good technique. possibly

[@thefish5861]

woodturner21 no, that can't be it.

[@jasonperkins2517]

A joy to watch a MASTER at work

[@sethwarner2540]

how can you do these things with such a HUGE scew?????

[@woodturner21]

No problem the point is still small

[@sethwarner2540]

could you do this with a tredle lathe?

[@woodturner21]

I don’t know I have never used one but most likely not

I wish you would make some more videos. I get tired of watching the same ones over and over.

[@woodturner21]

Sorry Billy time is very short with work being busy but I’ll try to do a few more soon

[@rond361]

I thought the Earring Shelf was supposed to turn on the pin from the finial , but you glued it so it can't. I would have put a metal washer under the shelf and left it without glue so it would spin like a lazy susan.

[@sethwarner2540]

you make zero pencil marks !! how can you know what you are doing? you are making no lines to go by!!!

[@woodturner21]

It comes from 70,000 hours experience check this out kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXPOXn6VdtmcrNU Also they are one offs so can be unique.

[@sethwarner2540]

Sorry for being so frank and direct, but you are breaking the rules!! And getting away with it!!Seems you LIVE in this stuff. Younjust do whatever you want and no catches, or nothing! Yer just like crack to me !how do you do it?

[@woodturner21]

No rules a broken just old techniques passed down from a family history of 300 years of woodturning. Sadly not many are taught correctly now with a real apprenticeship
