WOODTURNING: Making Ebony Earrings in 4k

[@stephenkeefer3436]

Did you know, that the whole room lights up every time you smile? As always, beautiful work. Wishing you and your family a blessed, safe, healthy and Merry Christmas!

[@liondirk]

Here in Arizona I’ve got mature ironwood trees in my backyard and when I trim it up any branches over 1 inch gets place in my turning pile and is left to season for at least a couple years. Lately I have been making drilled out and turned snowmen with top hats, with a plug in the bottom to place notes or something small in the hollowed out center, with pipe cleaner arms and scarves. Tonight I am going out in the middle of the night to place one on each house that has decorations in the yard on my block. Along with a note wishing them a merry Christmas.they are also painted white with black dots for eyes and buttons black for the top hat with red for the hatband.

And here I thought Santa resided even farther North than I do! Dirk, you sound like the kind of neighbor we all wish for. Stay safe and Merry Christmas to you!

[@outinthesticks8176]

Does ironwood crack as it dries , I have done same but only wood i found that will not is hawthorn and caragana

[@hotrodhog2170]

Such a beautiful and talented lady! Her voice is so soothing and comforting that I can't stop watching. Thanks for sharing your gift with all of us and Merry Christmas!

[@normpeplow3813]

Thank you for the idea. Now I know what to do with the small piece of ebony I acquired. It is so much fun and instructive watching you.

[@javierventuraquezada9437]

Ashley tienes unas manos de mujer trabajadora Dios te las conserve siempre. Felicidades eres muy creativa.!!!

[@andrewbrown8148]

Wow, from massive table bases to little bitty earrings. Your craftsmanship is fantastic, Ashley~!!

[@philshock3805]

Raise your hand if your heart skips a beat every time this amazing, extremely talented and beautiful artist posts a video. Tremendous work as usual, Ashley. Hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas.

[@todddembsky8321]

Why are all the fun and crafts(person) women always taken !!! I asked Santa for an Ashley for Christmas, yesterday I received a call from the local bulk fuel supply store asking where I wanted the 20 pounds of coal delivered. Such beautiful delicate work takes a good eye and steady hands to be so precise. Just beautiful. Alania, I know that you watch this channel, I want a bunch of those earings as decorations on my Maple Prop !! :-😎❄🎄🎄🎄🙏 Merry Christmas from Minnesota during a Blizzard Warning.

[@davidlacount3152]

Ashley, I would like to know more about your respirator and where I could get one. You may have discussed this before but I'm new to your channel and turning. I just bought my first lathe at 62 years old. Thank you for your knowledge.

[@baggetja1234]

You are very talented as a artist and teacher. Thank you for sharing your techniques.

[@vitocarriero4285]

Mi piacciono molto gli orecchini che hai fatto, sei molto brava. Ti auguro un buon Natale e un buon inizio di anno nuovo 2021 👍👍👍🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹❤️❤️❤️

[@blunderbuss9927]

Thanks for the inspiration to add wood to the jewelry making ideas! Absolutely beautiful stuff.

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thanks for watching!

[@jonm3255]

It's always a treat to open KZbin and see you have a new video! I was wondering if could explain the live center you are using? The 1" long or so rod shape is not something I have seen, but I'm new to turning and trying to learn about the tools.

[@mjcooperman]

I’ve seen some of your jewelry in footage in other videos, but this is the first time I’ve actually seen you make them. So used to the larger projects. My wife was amazed at the amount of work involved in just one pair of earrings. Happy holidays and good health to you and yours.

[@anthonyroberts9034]

You have such an amazingly gentle touch when working on those delicate projects. A true joy to watch you work. I hope you have a Happy and Peaceful Christmas, from Vermont 🎄

[@robertgarland9342]

Very talented. I love watching you work the lathe so well. You have very good control with the chisels but I got to say I did go back and have a 2nd look when you used the drill bit on the first ear ring. I honestly thought you were holding it with your bare hands. I didn't see the precision drill bit holder at first.

[@TRyburn]

You are so good at detailed work.

[@schwabit989]

Have a Merry Christmas! Thank you for all your wonderful videos.

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too!

[@JDDupuy]

I'm in love......I mean with the earrings! Very talented. Love your attitude towards the art.

[@tonyburelle6633]

Those were beautiful, such meticulous work, love watching you create

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@loucinci3922]

Nice job. Admire your ability to turn two identical things. Wow!

[@Cradley684]

They look great Ashley, have a nice Christmas and New Year and Stay Safe XX !!!!.

[@HookedupHardover]

One of my favorite channels. #1 Female woodworker/artist around.

[@AshleyHarwood]

THANK YOU SO MUCH :)

[@Mikidy303]

Very nice! You make this look so easy! Thanks for posting.

[@wethreetums]

Beautifully done. Very creative

[@utubejdaniel8888]

Interesting use of the pin vice to crill the wire hole.

[@markfishburn8284]

Thise looked very nice and I like how they came out, now I see where I can improve. Thank you for sharing.

[@woodfly8167]

Wow, you are so creative and super talented. So captivating to watch. Merry Christmas from Alberta Canada.

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you too!

[@sapphodesigns2377]

Looks really nice..very labour intensive though..what would you sell these for??

[@FredMcIntyre]

Awesome work Ashley! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@freshcut6952]

You can do everything and everything looks great merry Christmas and happy new year from Virginia

[@glencrandall7051]

Nice ear rings. Thank you for sharing. Have a happy holiday and stay healthy.

[@r.helmet4855]

Such beautiful earrings :) Excellent work 😊

[@davidash944]

Always a lovely smile after you complete your project, been a pleasure watching your videos and hope 2021 is a great success for your channel. Merry Christmas from the UK.

[@petetheprettygooddog]

Merry Christmas

[@petergwatts9037]

Wow, you turned those perfect little shapes in almost one stroke of the chisel. It’s almost like watching CNC in motion. Been feeling guilty that my reply to your motivational video where you mentioned your years at the farmers market I watched last month was not worthy of your message as after watching it I got out of bed early for a couple of weeks and really got some work done. Happy Christmas Ash Wood!

[@jontoolman]

Thank you for sharing your video. I amnew to turning and your video is very informative.

[@Straza_Weeks]

Merry Christmas Ashley from Australia.. Love your work, im still saving up for a good wood lathe. I can't wait to try this for myself, as I can't make your workshops, your video's are so helpful.

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you! You too! Hopefully one day that will change!

[@vivianac1592]

Your work is beautiful, Merry christmas, from Argentina.

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you! You too!

[@josesegovia1715]

Very nice, and so creative. Merry Christmas 🎁 and Happy New Year 🎆 from South Texas. Un abraso de Tejas.

[@tmueller333]

you were using some tiny spinning tools...can you share what size & diameter tools you were using? I am very new to turning and I really liked what I just saw in your video. Need help identifying the lathe tools (other than chuck) you were using if you don't mind. Thank you and have a blessed day!

[@andrewmortimer3317]

Great to see your skills in action. This was a nice video that has given me some ideas. Thank you and have a Merry Christmas.

[@jonathanbrowne8884]

Great video Ashley! Those look amazing! How many beads can you get from a single blank? I also want to ask how your video guy is doing? He was down with COVID last I heard...

[@kevspss]

Merry Christmas Ashley

[@AshleyHarwood]

Merry Christmas Kevin!

[@joeywalker4392]

Great video the earrings are very nice looking. They look great on you. Merry Christmas

[@trevglider3490]

Love your work Merry Christmas from Australia

[@AshleyHarwood]

Happy holidays!

[@meatwhisperer]

Beautiful work!

[@coreywelch]

Those look really great! I turned some pumpkin earrings once for someone around Halloween. Definitely not as classy as those. Merry Christmas!

[@andrewarcher880]

Hi Ashley, great pre xmas gift idea. What brand is your face shield come respirator please?

[@AshleyHarwood]

I use the PAPR respirator, if you wish to check it out I do carry it on my website www.ashleyharwood.com/product/papr-respirator/2?cs=true

[@PatriciaSamHouston]

Very nice! I’m gonna try those soon...Thanks, Sam❤️

[@renefox765]

Beautiful, Ash! Happy holidays!

[@MRmadman1978]

Great Skill and Talent

[@domingospedrobraga265]

Parabéns muito bonito trabalho nota dez e feliz Natal pra todos vcs e que Deus abençoe sempre vcs. 👏👏👏❤❤

[@patrickperson1252]

merry Christmas Ashley

[@603storm]

Revelation! You cut a tenon then flipped the piece around. I’ve watched many vids a finial turnings and the like and I’ve never seen that done but it makes perfect sense to ensure the piece stays centered.

[@williambarkenbush3915]

Merry Christmas :)

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you!

[@uniqko]

Beautiful

[@richardschaffling9882]

Looks great and Merry Christmas and Happy New Years

Very Nice! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Greetings from Bavaria

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you! thank you!

[@jayp6990]

Nice work, very cool!

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@skipproctor8979]

Great video! Merry Christmas! Quick question. What setup do you have in your tailstock when doing the rough turning? It looks like a steel dowel recessed into a cup center? Thanks!

[@JTLEE-zd2ig]

Merry Christmas, & Blessings for a good New Year, from far western Kentucky.

[@chrismcgann8448]

I don't see the earnings on your web site. Do you sell them? Thank you for all your work and efforts you put into your video's!!

[@raimondol88]

Very very beautifull👏👏

[@Grunt49]

Another facet of your talent.

[@dimitriszannis4775]

Happy Christmas and stay safe! thank you for sharing your talent, experience and your taste of beautiful.I so much enjoy your videos, but unfortunately too far away to join your class. Greetings from Greece..

[@craighill1606]

merry Christmas

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you!

[@jeanlong4285]

Really cute earrings. Merry Christmas from SC

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you, Loving another snow free Christmas :)

[@johnwilliamson7081]

I could watch you turn a hotdog. Like I said before......so much talent. Keep up the great work.

[@funcygames]

Was there something on the paper towel used near the end or was it dry.

[@blanius]

Curious about the little drill bit you used to make the hole

[@mikemills8729]

That looks great... but is there a source for smaller diameter ebony? You are turning away more than half the diameter before starting to shape the bead. Ebony is pretty expensive and I hate to waste so much. Suggestion??

[@nickyork8901]

pen blanks, or just cut up a piece into right sized blanks and make several pairs at once, as she is doing, with little waste.

[@fredwienbarg5051]

Very nice!

[@vasekjelinek6548]

Merry Christmas from Czechia 😷

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you!

[@BradPow]

I don't have a brad joke for you, but I'd like to say Merry Christmas to you and God bless you. Cheers.

[@oldmanwoodcraft]

Very nice .happy holidays

[@AshleyHarwood]

Same to you

[@chrislaing7153]

2:20 - Ashley, judging by the foot tapping, I take it that you were enjoying the music in your ear buds.

[@AshleyHarwood]

ha! you caught me! I love listening to music while turning

[@peterlingauer8512]

Wish you Merry Christmas from Bavaria

[@AshleyHarwood]

Happy holidays!

[@eseabee1]

They are great. Have you ever turned cow horn? I make powder horns and other things for horn. Turns just like wood. I have some nice tips that would make a nice pair off earrings. If you ever want to try let me know I will send you some.

[@westervonburgermeister9877]

What pin vise is that at 1:27? Would you recommend it, I'm looking for a good one. Also, great video.

[@victorstalick3719]

Where did you get the facemask / breathing equipment that you wear?

[@timothychk]

💯✔👩‍🎨 a very good gift idea .. thanks for sharing ..cheers

[@AshleyHarwood]

Thank you so much 😊

[@bellelibby1]

Another good video. I noticed a glass of wine to help with the tedious work😏

[@AshleyHarwood]

Always! especially late nights

[@edwarduribe2910]

Great and easy idea

[@artemise1tara3938]

[@stevenarnold3418]

Would love to see a video of your sea urchin ornaments.

[@AshleyHarwood]

I put together a DVD of the Sea Urchin Ornaments, you can check it out on my website www.ashleyharwood.com/product/sea-urchin-ornaments-and-fine-spindle-turning-dvd/17?cs=true

Hi dear Ashley, Could I ask you to do favor & prepare online classes for foreign students who don't have the chance to come to USA?? Thanks a million

[@Locreai]

i'm on my tenth bowl now. I am goin' to make something with a lid next in what ever junk wood i can get my hands on- likey an old burl i go cut. I need to get jumbo jaws some day so i can do decorative bottoms.

[@MariettoIdealNew]

😍 WOW!!! 😍 👏

[@codygarrard]

Just curious how much did you sell these for when you were doing shows? Looks pretty time consuming with all the wire wrapping.

[@pieterdebeer6709]

Cooooooool

[@Paolo27688]

Bravissima buon natale

[@TheWorkshopLog]

It would have been a perfect gift for the fiancée. Maybe next year 😄

[@dalemartin7886]

Ashley, you do beautiful work. Way too minute and meticulous for my ham hands and lack of attention span. And you have a wonderful smile. Merry Christmas, I hope you get a chance to relax. Dale from Napa, California.
