My Daughter's Wand

[@Wartooth91]

Finally someone who isn't just slathering glue onto a chopstick!

[@geichgange71]

I know right? It feels like we're actually seeing Ollivander himself make this piece of art!

[@ranoutofideasforaname9673]

David Xandre yeah its so cool i wil this is MY FHATER

[@robertlembo]

Any form of art which requires you to subtract material away in order to reach the final piece is extremely respectable in my opinion, one mistake and it's finished, you're starting over. The amount of patience you must have to do that kind of work is astonishing. The wand you made was incredible and I'm sure she adores it!!

[@Vekna666]

woh you're my new hero! you should open an etsy shop if u don't have one. people would kill for this quality!

You should open an etsy store and sell these, either with designs you have already premade or have custom requests 😍😍😍

[@CarolynElizabethVlogs]

[@avrillove11m94]

I would honestly pay 600 dollars for a wand like that xD

[@shayden5289]

It's nice to see a parent actually encourage this kind of play in their children, and support this kind of imaginative freedom. Not many parents understand the importance of making sure their children's imagination is free anymore.

[@Snakeplisskin440]

Love the soundtrack, Super Monkey. This was very cool. A wand made of some really dark black walnut is on my list of things I wanna create. That and somehow make a wood cover version of all the books. I just got into wood over the last year and the possibilities are endless. I don't think it's something I could get bored of.

[@constantinbarbu.]

And the dad of the year award goes to.... you !

[@grndragon7777777]

[@Justapotato14]

Adrian Brokenshire I don't know this man's background, but the average professional wood worker is going to be charging in the neighborhood of $17-25 per hour. I could imagine that this project easily took 4-5 hours from start to finish... you know, just putting that out there

[@alexanderking9462]

@@Justapotato14 $100 for a hand turned piece like this from an independent woodworker would be a steal

[@Jazzitiswhatitis]

Your daughter is so lucky to have you Mr. Ollivander :) I hope this created great memories for both of you.

[@paralogia]

Why start with such a big piece of timber for such a small object? You could have made four wands out of the piece of wood.

[@supermonkee48]

You are correct that a smaller blank would have worked. However, my chuck doesn't grip much smaller than that. I do intend to get a set of small jaws eventually for that very reason.

[@paralogia]

Sounds reasonable. Why not just do it between centers? I make spurtles and wands from time to time from 1"x1"x14" pieces and it never occurred to me to chuck them up. Is there an advantage for chatter?

[@supermonkee48]

Between centers is certainly an option. I prefer the jaws because I feel like I have more control over the piece, especially when it starts to get thin. It's mostly a personal preference.

[@paralogia]

I tried it your way the other day out of curiosity and ended up breaking it as it got thin. Go figure. Whatever works for best is what you use.

[@HaggisFist]

Geneva Mode just do it. Get to harbor freight and pick up a small cheap lathe and start rolling. You can do it

[@linmari5179]

Do you need to be an expert to do this sort of thing (using a lathe and dremel)??

I don't think you need to be an expert. I'm certainly not! I learned a bit from my father, picked up a few tips by watching other people online, and then kept at it. I don't do much wood turning - it's just an occasional hobby for me.

**If you watch at .25 speed it's almost at normal speed, so I'd say it took him an 45 minutes to an hour, but for a novice it'd take about 2 if you don't want to ruin it.** *As for materials you'd need:* -a turning blank(I recommend a 1 1/2"X1 1/2"X12" spindle blank) -paints -tongue oil/beeswax/other sealer -high grit sandpaper. *For tools you're going to need:* -borrow/rent a lathe and lathe chisels (lathes are not only big but a good lathe and chisels can be VERY expensive) -an etcher(although a dremel can be substituted, but they are a bit big) -eye protection, apron, and a painter's mask (if you plan on using wood such as purple heart which is highly toxic) -a guide to show you how to work the lathe without hurting yourself or the wood
