Woodturning | Basket Illusion Maracas

[@billedgington1030]

I always stay for the end

[@CarlJacobson]

HAHAHA...Thank you brother! Sometimes I wish I wouldn't LOL

[@shelbykunz3177]

Same, your ideas and reasons for doing things bring it all together! Not to mention the mistakes you sometimes claim (the things you do on here rarely look like an oops to me haha!) to have made along the way but turned them into something beautiful anyway are cool to hear about. =)

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Shelby :)

[@williamellis8993]

Me too.

[@katrinkasanfranciscobayare7364]

[@11Diabolic]

Rarely post but Carl your videos help me through so much and I appreciate the time and effort you put into them and I love seeing the amazing creations you make! Thanks and stay safe!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much!! We really appreciate that! Stay safe!!

[@glencrandall7051]

They look good. They sound good. But I would go blind attempting the basket weave detail. Thank you for sharing. Have a good day and stay healthy.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much Glen!! Stay healthy!!

[@darrylbuckett5380]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video, not only for the turning but for the music that played along with it. Top stuff, Cheers

[@CarlJacobson]

Awesome, thank you very much Darryl!!

[@jarmstrong2843]

Nice Maracas. When I lived on the US/Mexico border, I use to buy maracas in Juarez, MX. They were beautifully painted, but they were also made of very thin and cheap wood and would not last anytime. The ones you turned are much nicer and I like the geometric design you put on them. VERY NICE TOUCH!!! Keep those wood shavings flying!!!!!!!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much!!

[@bvandenbroeke]

I am new to lathes, and am looking to decide if I want to get one. But this has me convinced that I should try it. I hope I can do something similar someday. Thanks, I love your channel.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Robert!! It really is a great hobby!

[@Marie579]

It’s one hell of a lathe, inspired with the pyro burning effects great video 🙏

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much!!

[@douglassiemens4245]

5% here. This was a double treat. Woodturning and maracas. Since I am a rhythm "specialist" in our church praise team AND I dabble in turning, both were appropriate. Also, I used to be in radio. I tried TV, but I had couldn't talk to the camera so that career went nowhere. Of course, it didn't help that I have a face for radio. 😁

[@CarlJacobson]

lol Thank you very much Douglas!

[@SandiRose2008]

This was a great idea. I love the basket illusion on the maracas! LOL I was here at the end. Evidently you're not a solo player, Carl! I have a suggestion for what you can do at the end of each video.....I've been wanting to say this, so here goes. You spend all this time making the projects just to quickly show the end product in 5 seconds flat. Please slow down and take the time to show us everything about the product, then sit it on display and give us the time to admire it. Show us how proud you are of what you just made by displaying it proudly. Go back and watch the end of anyone of your projects and take note of how fast you are about it. Take your time showing us, Carl. You do such good work! Thank you!!!!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Sandi, and thank you for the advice. I'll work on it next week :)

[@williamellis8993]

A fun project with great results, Carl. I really like the basket weave. I, too, always stick around to the end. Once one gets that far, why not finish watching all of it. Stay safe and well. Bill

[@CarlJacobson]

Hahaha....Thank you buddy, you stay safe and well too.

[@ryancox8440]

Lol I saw the end. Robin stop making him weird!! Beautiful work Carl. You and Robin are an inspiration

[@CarlJacobson]

LOL Thank you so much Ryan!!

[@robinjacobson9616]

He was weird way before I met him Ryan ;) lol

[@mikeribelin7822]

Carl, another great job on the video, even to the last 5 minutes. You do amazing work, I love watching you turn, you do it with ease. Thanks for sharing!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Mike! I really appreciate that!!

[@hopehealthhappiness465]

Don't worry about talking to the camera. I stuck to the end. Love the maracas- simply gorgeous!😊

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much.... :)

[@richardarguelles194]

Those are really cool set of Maracas is very nice Keep doing what you do and you’re very good at it and thank you for teaching me something else I really appreciate that God bless you keep doing what you doing

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much Richard! I really appreciate the nice comment!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Pretty cool project!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you buddy!

[@donnorton7304]

Of course we stay until the end. I was thinking you weren't going to say anything at all. Not that the music wasn't appreciated but with the distancing going on it's still nice to hear another voice. Great project .

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Don! Yes this is a weird time, and so am I ;)

[@stevenmayhew3944]

What you just described, that "weird feeling", is similar to "stage fright", where you think you are going to make a mockery of yourself in public, when, actually, it's all in your mind. And you have successfully proven yourself successful in your videos. I know, because I made one myself.

[@CarlJacobson]

hahaha Thank you Steven!! I do get stage fright in demos for sure, but it's still easier for me than just the camera alone :)

[@yvonnex123]

Outstanding. Your videos are informational, intertaining and the results very much worth the short time it takes to watch. Thank you.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Robert!! We really appreciate that!!

[@stringmanipulator]

Thank you Carl, love you too and you always have high class turning :) I.ve learned so much from you over the years. Thank you so much for always inspiring me to try out more and do better in my workshop :)

[@CarlJacobson]

Wow, thank you!! I really appreciate that!!

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Weird? Not!! More like normal. 😜 Fun project with a nice twist. Thank you.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you sweetie!! :)

[@yossiderecheven6322]

The Maracas are beautiful, I really enjoy watching you as a creator, because you use unique and fascinating techniques, I enjoyed watching this video and listening to the wonderful music played by it, thank you!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much Yossi!!

[@OdairLucasLucas]

Meu amigo Carl você é um super artista parabéns. Se me permite te fazer uma pergunta? Tem como você me passar a referência do seu torno por favor. Estou juntando dinheiro para comprar um torno. Mas observando o seu fique fascinado. Desde já muito obrigado.

Great job; you kept my attention not knowing what you were doing. I may try a pair myself. Thanks loads

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you Randy, glad you enjoyed it!

[@chrisholt2474]

Another great project, I love your use of traditional and carbide tools. I use both also and enjoy using them the same. I always watch and enjoy every second of your films. Stay safe, regards, Chris.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you very much Chris!! I think they both have their place and work very well! Stay safe!!

[@KostasAnnikasDeftereos]

We love you too Carl ! I always have the same filing when is the start and the end of the video that I need to speak I capture at least 3 times lol ! Amazing work !I need to search for Guy you mansion! Have a great week carl !!

Basket Illusion Maracas In this video I turned a set of maracas on the lathe. I decorated them with a technique called basket illusion, it's a process of burning and coloring the wood. The maracas are 10 1/2" long and 3 1/2" in dia, and filled with Pinto beans.

[@lindahollinrake1334]

That music will put anybody to seeep

[@daniinterior5135]

waw so beautiful. a combination of woodturning with wood burning. awesome ... if I could make it like that ... but my tools are simple, I'm learning wood lathe.

Thank you very much!

Really Cool, Carl! Not sure I still have the patience to do that basket weave illusion. You sure make it look easy.

Carl, great job! Well done and thanks for Sharing. Babbling is ok, here in Australia we also call it Jibbering, which is also ok. It is almost as entertaining as bloopers at the end of a video. Cheers, mate, stay safe, stay well and keep on Jibbering.

[@poppetangel]

Great project. The music was so relaxing that I started dozing off.

[@CarlJacobson]

Hahaha Thank you :)

[@budj13]

Very, very cool, Carl! This is a great project idea and you executed it beautifully. I empathize with you on talking to the camera to shoot an opening or closing-- it's the hardest part. I thought your guitar track was perfectly matched to the project. Somehow I get the feeling you are a guitar player like me. I also thought the basket pattern was PERFECT. This one really inspired me.

[@CarlJacobson]

Thank you so much Bud! I really appreciate that! I'm not a musician :( It's all Robin! She picks out all the music for the videos. I don't think I could keep rhythm with a cow bell lol

[@MrWest...]

You're good brother! I really appreciate what you do, and your personality on camera is just natural and that's all that matters. Amazing craftsmenship as always

Carl, you do a great job I think!

[@CarlJacobson]

Thanks :)

[@timberdish]

As if we wouldn't stay 'til the end! Brilliant project, again, such patience!! I know what you mean though, talking to the camera on your own means you can't read any reactions and it's just a strange thing to have to do really. Probably why I'm never that side of the camera, if I can help it :D

[@CarlJacobson]

lol :) Thank you man!

[@shannahmiller]

Sounds like the takeaway is - make sure Robin is there when you do the ending remarks. :) Love this project. I like the pattern you two chose, and they sound really great!

[@CarlJacobson]

lol I think you're right!! Thank you very much Shannah!!

[@karlkoch320]

I like your tool holder/vacuum support rig. Do you have a video where you talk about your lathe customization and lathe work flow?

Not sure if I shared this story with you.... When we were little we went camping to Yosemite. The redwood trees were absolutely beautiful went all the way up beyond the clouds. Left room for imagination of Jack and the Beanstalk; one of our stories at the campfire. My dad had gathered up four baby redwood trees one for me and my three siblings. He planted them in our backyard. The trees grew very tall and rather quick. Our neighbor Ricky told my daddy that it was illegal for us to grow redwood trees in our part of the city. With that being said, my father had the trees cut down. At the base of the tree all four redwoods had grafted together. We each helped my dad handcraft a little four leaf clover table and a heart-shaped tray. It's rough around the edges, he didn't have a late or a router everything was done by hand and it's so beautiful with good memories. Those two pieces are probably the best out of all of my furniture. Ok. Have a great day. Just thought I'd share this with you. From, Kat

[@CarlJacobson]
