Wood Turning: Wood Pendants

[@bobboyer9440]

I have been making wooden pendents on a scroll saw for some time now to sell at craft shows. I will now be able to include some turned pendents as well. Thank you for the tutorial.

Thanks for watching! I hope everything made sense.

Omgosh, these pendants are so beautiful!👏👏👏

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thanks! And thanks for watching and commenting!

Good project. I like the way you improvised your offset chuck. Nice work!

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thank you! It was an improvised version from something I saw on another wood turning channel.

@@PiedraDesigns I’ve been a carpenter for over 40 years. Very little of what I know did I invent. We take what we are shown and apply it the best way we can figure out. That is what an artisan is. Happy Turning

Hair dryer or heat gun can soften up the hot melt glue for easier removal w/o possibly tearing out the plywood.

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thanks for the tip.

Well done, Wesley! Perfect wood for a pendant. 😃

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thank you! I had to find something to do with those off-cuts, just couldn't bring myself to throw them out.

Neat idea, sometime a little thought goes a long way.

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thank you, although I can't take credit for the idea, I saw another turner do it.

Great video Wes. I'm planning on making some very soon so this video really helped. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw

[@PiedraDesigns]

Thanks Huw! I look forward to seeing what you turn up. Wes

Why don`t you cut the hole on your first side then use the drill to center the pendent on the other side.

[@PiedraDesigns]

Certainly could use the drill to line up for the second side, I just wasn't worried about it being 100% perfectly aligned. Thanks for watching!

[@peterfabricius662]

Nice demo of improvising. I like DIY using any inspiration that comes your way. Comment, you should ways step to the side when turning a piece that is attached with tape or hot glue…. I hope you are wearing a face shield.
