Woodturning a Goblet from Firewood

[@danielcarroll989]

OMG The homemade hook too from a flat screwdriver!! I LOVE IT. I need to remember that you don't need fancy expensive tools for everything.

[@RHumphrey]

haha! I need to remind myself of the same thing!

[@PohlBarnProductions]

Nice captured ring goblet Rod but something was missing, huh can't put my finger on it though, to bad the soothing voice of the narrator was not there to let us know, LOL Thumbs up as always, Have a great weekend !

[@millsinaz4220]

You hit the nail on the head. The million dollar voice is a big part of the immersive experience watching Rod's videos. Great work on the goblet.

[@user990077]

With that voice he should get a side job as a narrator for insurance ads, etc.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much, Doug! Like the old silent films from days of forgotten yore... I think my first 40 or 50 videos were no talkers with questionable music choices, lol. Always appreciated, brother!

[@alansimpson596]

@@user990077 I think Rod should be narrating films, documentaries etc with his rich voice.

[@glencrandall7051]

You have been missed. Hope all is well. BTW that was not firewood. It was just a piece of wood looking for a project. 😃 It found a good one. You just have to love the cedar. You certainly did justice to this piece. 👍I miss your commentary though. Thank you for sharing. Have a great 2022 and stay safe.

[@Starrynightdiner]

I agree. Cedar is never firewood.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you, Glen, all is well, and I hope the same for you!

[@sheilahperry-rosales8748]

I miss my parents cedar trees.This brought many memories of my dad's woodshop.

[@richardcollins8130]

Beautiful Rod.

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks very much, Richard!

[@robertcobert8626]

Thank you for your service in the Marine Corps brother and being a patriot 🙏 God bless. Like your scripture reference also. Your work is awesome 👌 love it Robert Cobert

[@raelewis9957]

I like that you were so appreciative of the beauty coming forth from your hands that you had nothing to say to add to it. True sign of a master imo

[@chaoticconjuring]

The Yin & Yang goblet! Very beautiful!

[@janeoverby2151]

Lovey Goblet with a captured ring Rod! Cedar is so pretty!

[@SandiRose2008]

So that's how the ring is made! Love the goblet, Rod! Such beautiful colors! Thank you.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@alansimpson596]

What a transition from a piece of firewood to a beautiful goblet. As you know I live in Ireland and it's a fairly recent tradition to make a goblet with two captive rings to be presented to the bride and groom at their wedding. It's meaning is that the two captive rings represent the couple who are now inseparable. I've made some and they go down really well with the happy couple. Semper Fi.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you my friend, I appreciate the info. Maybe I'll make one of those in the future 😊

[@tylerkrug7719]

I've always loved the way cedar smelled

[@elenin.3228]

So, this is the Goblet of Fire(wood)! Truly magical!!!

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks very much! 😊

[@GingerLeeH]

a goblet for the Gods. so pretty in cedar.

[@miguelpagansr6128]

I can’t believe that a gorgeous piece of wood like that was going to be firewood, I’m glad you saved it from the fire awesome work.

[@RHumphrey]

Yep, fairly common firewood around my area. I grab it up when I can.

[@debradavis9331]

Love to watch you work. You have a soothing voice, you are like the Bob Ross of wood working. God bless you.

[@jeanetteevans356]

This is so beautiful so glad you saved it from the fire the colour of the wood is gorgeous

[@RHumphrey]

Thanks so much 😊

[@dalejones4186]

Great job. I absolutely love turning red cedar. It always turns out beautiful.

[@glynis7970]

Beautiful. It made me jump when the hoop released ☺️ I love the split colours too

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you! 😊

[@luanncunningham2318]

Your wood working is amazing and the goblet made from cedar is beautiful. ❤️💗❤️It!!

[@RHumphrey]

[@lestertockerman2260]

Rod...as usual, a combination of craftsmanship and art...the cedar can't be beat for color and pattern...keep the faith...Lester

[@MEGQuilts]

Lovely! The color contrast really makes it pop. This is a goblet any Rennie would be proud to hoist at the pub. Thanks for sharing your interesting work.

[@jesseherrin3253]

Nice work! Eastern Red Cedar is one of my favorite woods with its beautiful grain & unmistakable pleasant smell!

[@gavincoyle]

Rod I can't believe a beautiful piece of wood like that was going to be burnt waow what a save my friend this is gorgeous 👍👍👍

[@davidgagnon1961]

I really enjoy when you make these with the captive ring. Showed my daughter and explained how you did it and she thinks it is really cool also.

[@jeffmchale5826]

An absolutely amazing piece. Captive ring goblet is on my list of future projects.

[@mikeparsonscc]

Another beautiful piece as always 😍👏 Thanks for the shout out Rod - I'm glad it finally got to you! You are an inspiration to us all and I cannot thank you enough for sharing your work

[@RHumphrey]

Very kind of you to say, Mike! I appreciate the sticker and will have one in the mail to you this week. I'll be checking out your videos too! 😊

[@mikeparsonscc]

That Goblet came out pretty good beautiful color 👍🏽

[@jilldavies7094]

The close-up photography was stunning as it captured every delicate little move as you created the ring. A treat to watch, as always, Rod. And a beautiful goblet. Fancy using such glorious wood on a fire!

[@ahsquared1]

That is one gorgeous goblet Rod, I love the look of cedar! Thanks for sharing, God bless you too my friend.

[@darlouthia5153]

So beautiful. Gives me a Holy Grail kind of vibe.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@uniqko]

Beautiful design 👍

[@FilosophicalPharmer]

Wanted to learn this skill for so long! Began a year ago by watching your videos. I consider you a mentor in this modern age of KZbin. I think i have a chunk of red cedar outside. Gotta find a sacrificial flathead first. Then your apprentice is gonna try his first ringed goblet. Semper Fidelis, Rod!

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you, Blair! Always appreciated!

[@davidward3837]

Thank you for your service and another wonderful piece of art.

[@mariagaddis5134]

Good quickie, Rod ! Nice vessel! Keep the Faith, Brother!!

[@PBUCKY1969]

Beautiful goblet - I just love cedar - many thanks!

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@robertkeyes2654]

Red cedar is one of my favorite woods to turn. It's abundant here and it turns so very nicely and finishes up beautifully. Just like your goblet you made here. Nice idea about a cheap captive ring tool. I would love to make a captive ring but I hate to pay $50 for a tool I wouldn't use but once in a blue moon!

[@glennmoreland6457]

I like the ring in it 🇬🇧🙂

[@jarmstrong2843]

Nice one, MSgt Humphrey. I love turning cedar wood. Semper Fi

Fantastic, Love the Ring detail.

[@georgeshuttlesworth8347]

My father-in-Law used to make these ringed goblets. He was a great woodcarver as a hobby & a tombstone engraver was his profession: His name was A.D. Peveto, & he was a great man in my book!👌😋

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you for sharing that memory and his name!

[@randyroberts7055]

It's been a long time nice to see your videos are back again hope your life is doing good

[@miladyblue5077]

Welcome back from holidays, Rod. Hope they were good for you. Thank you for giving us a good one, right out of the gate. Love the "captive rings." That was something that drove me nuts as a kid, "How the heck do they get those things on there?!?"

[@jusitnaltman3544]

Gorgeous Rod Semper Fi

[@danielrawlings9927]

That second cut on the band saw had me sweating 😥 that is a man who’s never had a bandsaw catch and shoot back at him!

[@RHumphrey]

Must have been the video angle. It was a very safe, slow, and deliberate cut. Very little blade pressure. But no, I've never had a bandsaw catch cause a piece to shoot back at me... table saw is another scary story...

[@jaeography]

Great turning as always but I like t.he narration you provide

[@insanerotta5332]

Now that is the actual Goblet of Fire(wood) :D

[@RHumphrey]

Ah, that would have been a great video title! Thank you 😊

Good morning, Rod. Always a great way to start a Friday. I have yet to make one of these. Now I have the lesson fresh in my mind. When the finish went on, the color popped. Interesting ring tool also. Semper Fi, Brother.

[@tomandtinadixon]

My experience with red cedar is cedar closets and saunas. Great captive ring chisel idea there. Right now we're air drying some Siberian elm for a cutting board my wife wants to build.

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you! That'll be a pretty cutting board!

[@johnwallace4408]

What a beautiful goblet! You out did yourself on this. Eastern Red Cedar is one of my favorite woods to turn. In my experience, I find that it best to finish with an oil based finish either man made or Natural. A Shellac base with lacquer top coat is my favorite!

[@RHumphrey]

Thank you very much!

[@josephinelarosa635]

A beauty!

[@rogerr9677]

Very nice, & from firewood too...
