Thank you for using our paste and the shout out for subscribing to our channel. We hope to show more turnings in the near future. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Larry my dehydrator came today and I put 3 oak bowls in averaging 26% moisture content for 8 hrs and it brought them down to a consistent 10 %. No more microwaving over and over. This is great.

Great idea. Thanks for sharing. We ended up purchasing a second dehydrator for making fruit leathers, and drying tomatoes, etc. The second was a larger version with stackable trays. I think I'll whisk the other one out of the kitchen and see if I can't modify it to handle drying wood. Should be interesting.

Headed your way after lunch. Got a pan to return! :) OK, we sure hit a home run with that Honey Locust find. I have found it to be very stable. It does wonk a bit though but I've not had any cracks open up in it. What I want to see you try is Cherry. It has much stronger internal stress and cracks so darn easily if when you think we dried it properly. So, turn a 6" common wet Cherry bowl, and let's see what happens in the dehydrator. OK? If the Cherry stays stable and does not crack apart after it is finished turned down thin, I'll buy a dehydrator and figure out where to put it in my otherwise crowded shop. :)

Probably 8 or 10, I don't keep count. I think the smoothness of the wood doesn't matter as much as how wet the wood is when you start and how quick you dry it. The slower and lower temperature you use, the better and fewer cracks you will have. I guess you mean wall power, 115v usa. The output power, i.e., watts power, I have no idea. Take care, Larry

Thanks for great trick, i have a very prime question though. What happens if I turn a very fresh cut wet wood and immediately coat and varnish it , if so I preserved the natural moisture inside the wood and this is not necessary to be concern about how to dry it. Am I correct?

You need to dry it somehow. It will eventually warp or crack or both. Wood moves even after dry sometimes. Thanks, Larry

Hi Larry, Another great video, Thanks. You mentioned about the wood becoming hard and I was wondering if it's "harder" than if it had air dried naturally vs accelerated with the dehydrator. I guess we all know green wood turns easier than dry wood but does the dehydrator make the "dry wood" even harder to turn than if it were slow dried in a paper bag with wet chips etc? Please advise. Thanks, Myles

Beats me, I've never dried one in a paper bag. I would think it wouldn't make a difference, dry is dry. But I will tell you, it's a bunch harder dry and tradidtional tools would have a hard time unless you sharpen them every 2 minutes. Thanks and take care, Larry

It's Magic Mills, got it off Amazon for $129. I would not buy it again. I would get a bigger one. Mine is limited to a 12" bowl. They make bigger ones. Try this one. Elechomes 8-Tray Food Dehydrator Machine, It's on Amazon for $149.

@@TheWoodWhirler thanks. I am looking to get one. I have a small lathe and 12" is bigger than I can turn. I can go as big as 10". I think I saw that one on Amazon. I tried to order one from eBay but not sure the status of that one. eBay removed the seller but their web site says that it has shipped. Oh well that is life. $129. is more than I wanted to spend anyway. Thanks again for your reply.

No, I don't. Sounds to me like you need to switch to carbides. Very little or no sharpening will be needed. I can do anything and faster than I could with a gouge. Take care, Larry

thank you for sharing.I just got my lathe today and have not turned since high school (a very long time ago as today I turn 50). Here in south Dakota I have elm, and cotton wood mostly. I am wanting to find out the best way to get logs to turn, whether a bowl or vase. I love the natural form from this turning rather than a blank. Do you have any advice to help me get started on my first projects?

I learned by watching You Tube, never had a lesson. Just search for "beginning wood turning". There is a ton of videos. Now take them with a grain of salt, there is some bad info out there. I would start with carbides. Not saying they are easier, but if you go traditional, then you got to have a grinder, sharpening jigs and such. A big investment and you might not like it. Then what? With carbides all you need is a diamond card for sharpening. If I can help, let me know. Thanks, Larry
