Turn an Angel Ornament

[@armus550b]

I'm going to make a couple. I was confused on why you made the halos separate but I see they are tilted.

[@johnpbh]

What a lovely ornament. Thanks so much for re-posting it. My daughter has a Christmas shop so I can see dad being asked to make some when I show her this video. Thanks again.

I love the ornament I also like the Jed Clampett farewell

Nice re-make Mike👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great video as Always. much better than original. i appreciate the measurements and handout .

[@bertdelisle393]

Great update Mike, I watched the original years back and made angels for that year's Ornament. One change to process I found was to hollow the body to reduce the weight, I made them from Oak and found the solid body was a bit heavy. Thanks for the inspiration and tip on end grain gluing, I now always use a coat of glue as sizing on the head before adding the halos.

Thanks for the feedback.

[@johnmills5052]

Very cool. My next project

[@GarryKWV]

Thanks! Great video - I've watched the original several times. Looking forward to practicing my skew skills and trying to make some of these. Thanks again for the instructions!

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Thanks for your support.

Hey Mike. Using your excellent tutelage I whipped out 2 Angel's today in no time. One normal size and a half size. Thank you so much.

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Awesome!

[@billy19461]

I make angels similar to these. I didn't follow your original directions exactly but love making them. Mike you will never know how much you have helped me in my turning. Thanks ever so much and God bless.

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

God bless.

Really nice looking angle nice job 👍

[@LewisKauffman]

Getting to be about that time of the year! Thanks Mike!

[@kenkay40]

Mike, I had watched your original video and it inspired me to make one of these angel ornaments, but for various reasons, I never actually got around to making one. This time I promise to try harder to follow up on the inspiration that you have provided all over again! :)

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Go for it!

[@suzetteedwards7956]

Thanks for the refresher Mike. I was planning on making some of those but totally forgot about them. Preparing for my first craft fair and want a lot of ornaments. I don't have lots of nice 2x2 squares but I have LOTS of limbs I can use. :D

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

That can work with some woods.

[@gerardpeyrouty2216]

Très très beau... et plein d'espérance !!! Merci ! meilleurs voeux.

[@anthonymaida5718]

Thanks Mike I will have to try one of those, great for Christmas Gifts.

[@pastoruke4322]

Cool project! After watching your original video, I made a few. Great re-make!!

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Thanks!

[@lawrencelunsford6028]

Made my first angel this evening. My wings are a little small ( I started removing too much waste before making wings) and didn't line up the grain very well on the sander. I watched the video again and I'll try again tomorrow after church. At least my wife could tell what it was when I came in and showed her! Thank you sir for your videos. :)

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Excellent! Don't we always learn a lot from our first new project?

[@lawrencelunsford6028]

@@MikePeaceWoodturning Yes sir we do! :)

[@TheOtherGuybo]

That was great. Thanks!

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Glad you liked it! They are one of my favorite things to turn and give away.

[@cobberpete1]

I already have an order for 6 :) . Will be making them in the next few weeks I have snapped of the screw Eye. YES... Use a pin vice

[@dylangraves]

Good morning Mike! Our club is starting to do video presentations, so ill be trying my damndest to get em to reach out to you! Omaha needs a moment of peace!

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Great! Look forward to it.

[@N5XHIworkshop]

Mike, I would like to take this project and make it into a bell also, but I think it would be a challenge to hold in my chuck. So I have 2 months to figure it out for our church ornament exchange party. Thanks, Jeff Robinson

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Some folks say they hollow out to make lighter. Reverse the turning so head is toward the tailstock. If you are going to glue the Halo as I do, no need to jam chuck to finish the head. Watch the handbell ornament video.

[@ElbowFalls]

That pink paraffin wax looked like a finger for a second...thank you for the redo video.

[@IBDaddyO]

Sanding butter?

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Watch the sanding playlist.

[@55galstand]

Good video but need a closer shot of the lathe tool tip for clarification

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

I appreciate your feedback. Really.
