Walnut Texturing With Robert Sorby Texturing And Spiraling Tool Medallions And More!

[@raydriver7300]

Nice job. I’ve just taken delivery of my Robert Sorby texturing tool and will make a start with it after I’ve finished decorating the kitchen. Thank you for sharing 🌞

[@ErikAnderson1]

Hope you have fun using it. I like mine alot and use it very often when I am turning.

[@davidmorgan7522]

Embellishments like that really dress up a turning. Thanks for sharing Eric! Take care, Dave

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks Dave!

[@richardhawkins2647]

10 dislikes?! Those trolls get everywhere. What is there to dislike in this vid? If I have one complaint it's that it makes me want to buy a texturing tool! Great job and very inspiring.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks and Sorry!

[@icespeckledhens]

It's a lovely medallion and a great natural finish. Thanks James

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks I made one for all the members of my Nuclear family.

[@tomphillips8565]

An attractive pattern. Good job.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks a lot

[@robertduffy1016]

Have the tools, now I'm looking forward to learning and practicing from your video. Thank you for sharing!

[@ErikAnderson1]

You will enjoy it if you practice and like making textures!

[@lloydsnyder2738]

You've given me a great idea for my scrap. Thank you.

[@ErikAnderson1]

great

[@leksey7870]

Beautiful things happen! Knurling adds a charm!

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thank you!

[@icespeckledhens]

I think they are very attractive medallions. I like colour with texturing but I agree with you that walnut is a beautiful wood and colour would only spoil it. thanks James

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks James I like some color too sometimes but I let the wood speak to me about that!

[@TomSavadel]

Great video Erik. The tool seems to open up a whole new world for finishing.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks Tom and indeed it does and it harkens back to a Swedish, Norwegian and Romanian lineage.

[@lesliebarker3428]

Beautiful wood and beautiful work, Erik

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks Les I am starting to make pens and I might just make a hairy oak pen and if I am successful I will send one to you for your generosity.

[@lesliebarker3428]

Hairy oak is unfortunately, very fractious. Good luck my friend. Do you have any mulga? If not I can send you some. It is good colour, very hard and very stable. Regards to all in your house.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks Les, what is Mulga I am going to look it up but I have ideas for how to keep the hairy oak together and I will see if it works., thin CA glue bath slow cure or shellac and denatured bath 50/50 several times and let set then drill for tubes. I would love some Mulga but let me try to get a Hairy Oak Pen out!

[@ErikAnderson1]

Mulga looks amazing , I have made some California Acacia burl pens that turned out beautifully.

[@lesliebarker3428]

Mulga is a western wood. Sometimes called gidgee. It is very small tree. It only grows to about four inches across. I may have sent you some in the past. Your ideas for the hairy sound very good.

[@matthewbrown7096]

I now know what I want from Father Christmas. Nice work

[@ErikAnderson1]

Good one, if you are a really good listner your significant other might get one for you! I have no affiliation with or any free tools or any swag from Robert Sorby I bought this and got a good deal but it was still 170.00 on the interweb. Thanks for watching and I hope you are inspired to go and make!

[@terryreed1421]

Love your videos Erik! I purchased the tool in January and I'm finally getting some time to start playing with it. Now all I have to do is figure out the angles of attack to get those designs you come up with. And yes, better to practice on something like that than ruining a bowl... Thanks for inspiring my curiosity.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Terry thank you, you will have fun, just get a good piece of maple or walnut and do some end grain practice, like these medallions.

[@JimmiePorterAtStuartArts]

A super cool little piece. Thanks for the share!

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks this is how I practice for the bowl at the end!

[@stephenmcfadyen1385]

Eric, What a brilliant piece, also lve the bowl, it has inspired me to try out my Sorby tool up to this time I was not sure how to go about it. Thanks and keep the videos coming we love your work Regards Steve

[@ErikAnderson1]

Cool

[@MikeWaldt]

A great demo Erik, this texturing system is brilliant, I love it too. Cheers Mike

[@ErikAnderson1]

some of my comments never made it to me until now thanks Mike

[@walshjp17]

I have the mini tool but now that I see what you've done with the big daddy, gotta get me one. Nice workmanship.

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thanks John I think you will not be disattisfied.

[@trevorvesey6742]

Erik I just watched a video by Nick Agar from Sorby's instead of sandpaper he just burnishes it with shavings I'm going to try both today in my workshop all the best for the coming year from Downunder

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thank you Trevor

[@MrMeasureTwice]

Hey Erik, I am really enjoying your patterns on your turned wood projects!! May your shop be filled with chips and sawdust all year long, - Jim “Mr. Measure Twice” Marchetti

[@ErikAnderson1]

Thank you Jim!

[@yuvallahav]

Man, that is fantastic, I've been fascinated with texturing tools, and since I can't afford any, finding out how they work in hope I could replicate a home made version of them someday. It's perfect to see some close up work with these, just makes me want to stop feeding the kids so I could get one ;) Yuval

[@ErikAnderson1]

A bicycle rear deraiuler sprocket that is sharpened to points would work!

[@yuvallahav]

Erik Anderson I don't know what that is, but google will sort me out :)

[@yuvallahav]

Erik Anderson Found it, and can get hold of a few, I'll need to try this!!

[@woodturnermark8529]
