I don’t make Guitars dude. You could do it tho 😊

[@chrisbaker6503]

@@JackMackWoodturning if you ain't making a guitar it's a waste of wood. Just teasing. Very cool project. More patterned wood on the lathe would be awesome. Interested to see what you can come up with. Clean work sir.

[@miloj4279]

Just got into my first woodturning class in school and seeing the process from an experienced woodturner really puts into perspective how slow I have been doing things lmao.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

As I am sure you know, this footage is all sped up quite a lot. Just take it all at a speed which feels comfortable. There is absolutely no need to rush. Be confident and precise. 👍🏻😊

[@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

@miloj42 - You have lots of time. Make lots of mistakes. If you're not making mistakes you're not taking any risks. Just make sure you are wearing your protective gear and have have fun.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Don’t take risks.

[@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

@@JackMackWoodturning Those aren't the kind of risks i meant, I don't mean breaching physical safety. What I mean are the kind of risks our egos are afraid of making, fear of trying somethimg new. 'What if it doesn't turn out well?. What if nobody likes it?... blah, blah, blah...our egos are not our friends. THAT'S what I meant.

[@JackMackWoodturning]

@@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer I see. I feel most beginners wouldn’t fully understand the difference between thinking outside the box creatively and sticking within safe working practices. For me teaching woodturning and saying “take risks” don’t go together simply because it could be both misunderstood. I do understand what you were saying 👍🏻

[@DVD927]

I am just a minute in, but I see you woodwork as if you want to keep your fingers. It’s nice to see someone care about safety. The digital angle thingie is very cool! I don’t wood work but I enjoy watching people make stuff.

Can I just say, I admire the fact you use proper safety tools and skills while cutting wood. You're literally one of probably hundreds Ive seen actually do this accurately. 👌 Props to you dude

[@garyfestarini9608]

One hundred percent. I see too may turners wearing rings, watches and loose clothing...

[@JackMackWoodturning]

Thanks guys. Gloves is the one that scares me. Although rings and watches are also a bit crazy. The thing about KZbin is anyone can record them selves and upload. I see a lot of clearly novice turners on here essentially documenting their learning process.. but they don’t seem to tell others they still don’t know what they are doing. So a novice watches them and thinks that’s the right way and so on until we have nothing but muddy waters. It’s a real shame and makes the journey into woodturning a lot harder for those using KZbin as a resource.
