Thank you very much Gerald! Take care, Steve

Hi Steve, great video, learned enough to give stave construction a go, thanks for that. Really like the hollowing system will be giving that a closer look. Happy New Year! Cheers Gord

Gord - Thanks for watching my video and for the comment. Take care, Steve

It's been a long time between videos Steve. It's good to have you here again. This was a great start on the staved vase. Now on to part 2. Thank you for sharing.

[@slindsley1951]

Glen - It has been a while. It was good to get back on the lathe and do some turning. Thanks for watching! Take care, Steve

Excellent demo!

Thank you very much!

@@slindsley1951 Steve, I built a jig, and produced an 8 sided “trial” and it wasn’t too awful for a first blush. The biggest issue is the “twist” which you mentioned. I’m pretty sure this is due to blade alignment with the fence. From my understanding, the blade in vertical position can be slightly out of alignment with the fence, but this will be exacerbated when the blade is tilted…that’s about the only way I can figure the “twist” in the glue up.

Very beautiful vases and thanks for the math lesson.

You're very welcome! There will be a quiz later.

hi great video please where did you get that loverly big cone live center from regards Bill

[@slindsley1951]

Bill - I got the large cone center from Kurt Theobald's website. It currently shows it to be out of stock. You might send him a message and see if he's going to be getting any more. I put a link below. Robust and Oneway also make large cone centers but they may not fit on other live centers. Also, there are videos on KZbin on how to turn your own. Hope that helps.

Steve, great videos. Where did you find the large cone for your tailstock?

[@slindsley1951]

Thanks Roger. I got my cone center from Curt Theobald's website. I put a link below. It's been out of stock for awhile. If you send him a message I'm sure he'll let you know if or when it will be in stock. Robust and Oneway also make large cone centers. Google or check their websites.Take care, Steve curttheobald.com/store/ols/products/cone-center

[@JohnD-tp9no]

Great job Steve. The link to Curt Theobald site for the cone does not work. Do you have an update on how I can get a large cone like you use? Thanks.

[@slindsley1951]

John - I put another link below so hopefully this one will work. If not, just Google Curt Theobald and his website will come up. Robust and Oneway make large cone centers as well. You can find them on their websites.

[@nickf2170]

The 21.69 blade angle is devided by two is that correct.....? So the bade is set at 10.855?

[@slindsley1951]

No the blade angle was 21.69 (or as close as I could get it). It's not divided in by 2 when cutting staves. Thanks for watching. Take care. Steve

Hi Steve, All I can say is that if I lived next door you'd have to put up an electric fence and lay a mine field to keep me out!!! I can't tell you how much you have inspired this 75 year old guy! Thanks for this and all your videos! Tom Ps: where do you buy your rubber bands?

[@slindsley1951]

John - If you lived next door you'd always be welcome in my shop for a cup of coffee and good conversation! I picked up my rubber bands at Office Depot but I'm sure they would have them at any office supply store like Staples. Take care, Steve

@@slindsley1951 I have enjoyed your videos and am trying to start segmented Turning. Having problems getting seams on #2 ring to line up with center of segments on the first ring. Can you help with this problem?

[@slindsley1951]

@@johncox9971 John - Do you have the same number of segments in each ring? If yes, then you should be able to get the joints on ring #2 close to the center of the segments on ring #1. It doesn't have to be exact, just close. Once the piece is finished no one will notice if one ring is a scootch off from the one above or below it. Hope that helps. Take care, Steve

[@uma2maheswari]

Steve I am an enthusiast and would seek your advice on beginners equipment . Is there any way you could advice me please on this ? Regds

[@slindsley1951]

Uma - the only advice I can give you is to decided what type of turning you'd like to do (bowls, pens, bottle stoppers, spindles, etc.) and buy the best equipment that your budget will allow. Good luck. Take care, Steve
