Woodturning Segmented Christmas Ornament

[@pathardage1880]

That is one of the most spectacular pieces I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing your process.

[@AsWoodTurns]

You are so welcome! Alan

[@DH-lq6lf]

I love it. I also love the Christmas sentiment you expressed. It seems we are all shying away from using the word Christmas and the absolute reason for the season. Thanks for that as well. I have heard it 3 times so far this year and it is disturbing to me. Good job. good teacher and I love the way you think.

[@AsWoodTurns]

Thanks for your comment Merry Christmas

The finished used really made the frog wood pop. Very nice job!

[@AsWoodTurns]

That is when it became stunning. Thank you Karl Alan

[@mpart_woodlathe-stuff]

Wonderful, just wonderful Alan !!! Don't you love it when you can expose the wonder inside ? Or put another way - Don't you love it when a plan comes together ? -Mike

[@AsWoodTurns]

Another way - I love it when a plan evolves into something pretty. Alan

[@williamellis8993]

Beautiful ornament, Alan. The maple veneer pieces really make it pop.

[@AsWoodTurns]

Thank you William. A little accent goes a long way. Alan

[@cortlandhunt4721]

Love the blue on the piece. 👍🇺🇸

[@AsWoodTurns]

Thank you Cortland - I had my doubts until the finish went on. Alan

[@MadNerdWorkshop]

Alan, that is one of the nicest ornaments I have seen so far. Very nice work sir.

[@AsWoodTurns]

Thank you Alan

That’s a beautiful ornament Alan. I really like the shape and that Frogwood accent in the middle is beautiful. I have some Frogwood that I’ll be turning sometime soon. Your comment that it is harder than cherry was helpful. It really looks like it will be fin to turn.

Great description and video of the process! I especially like the gluing up pf the segment pieces explanation, particularly the use of the bolt. Do you have a link to making the twisted eyelets?

Very nicw! Before I watched this I thought the Frog wood was lucite or glass. I need to try some someday.

[@AsWoodTurns]

It would be possible to make the center with some acrylic resin. But I like wood. Alan

Beautiful pieces Alan. How heavy did they end up.

[@AsWoodTurns]

Bert, I did not feel the need to weigh it. With the hollowing, it was very light. Alan
