Red cedar is in abundance here in British Columbia Canada, my neighbour gave me some logs out of his camp fire pile & I made some nice red cedar vases out of it, free wood!

Gorgeous looking vase Ian. I have some Leylandii in my log store from two huge trees we had to have cut down in our garden. The trees came down about 7 years ago so if I'm lucky there will be some I can put on my lathe. Take care Ian. Cheers, Huw

I think all wood has potential to be a family heirloom or end up in the burn pile, some of my favourite pieces come from my annual firewood delivery or branches that break off in storms! Great work!

Cypress, maybe not the posh type, but there are many things to be said for that family of wood. Finished up great, as a light colored wood, still managed to give the impression of depth.

@IanMacWoodturning
@IanMacWoodturning 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jean! I put the piece of wood back into the shavings to stop it from cracking as easily, this is because the shavings are also wet so it’ll help stop the piece of wood losing moisture too quickly.. in theory! 😂

In my book, cheapest wood is free, delivered to my place, and all ready to go on the lathe. Any thing that requires cutting or hauling first means I have time invested in it, any we all know time is money! 🤣 Nice turn, and the two part for hollowing worked out nicely.

How you dry it without cracks?
@IanMacWoodturning
@IanMacWoodturning 3 жыл бұрын
We use various methods.. with varied success haha. The usual steps are things like sealing the wood numerous times during the turning process & leaving it in a bag of chippings to keep it from drying out too quickly. Sometimes you may have to leave it thicker in order to turn down once it has dried a little and on other occasions you have to deal with the cracks and either make them a feature or try and fill them. There are lots of other tricks & methods but the ones listed above are some of the ways I try to reduce cracking/warping.
