Woodturning - Three Winged Hollow Form

[@daviddeadman8455]

Brilliant work, Robert. Loved the music.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks David. I may start trying to stick with some acoustic guitar for the majority of my videos.

[@JoleneDixon72]

Beautiful! I held my breath for a few seconds there at the end! Whew!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha, yeah, I had a bit of a adrenaline kick in when it slipped out of my hand. Thanks for watching!

[@ellengraham4677]

Wonderful piece, so glad you changed your mind. 😍💖

[@SoCoJoCoWoodworks]

Man that came out great! Please tell Jacob he did a great job too.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks buddy! I'll let Jacob know for sure!

[@adamsartistries4385]

What can't you do? I'm in love with this piece! Work of art.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Bonnie! You're too kind!

[@bradwiebelhaus7065]

Looks good, nice to see the beaver out of the slammer.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Brad. If you couldn't tell he was a bit quieter in this video. I think he was just thankful to be out.

[@jackthompson8019]

Beautiful turning Robert.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Jack, glad you think so!

[@TheKlondikeCraftsman]

Very nice Hodge, something I’ve always wanted to make! Well done!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Lewis! You should give it a try! I was wondering how it would cut with the grain diagonal to the bed but this cut beautifully in either direction it seemed.

[@johnscarboro5943]

Nice one Hodge. A great alternative to the traditional 3 winged bowl.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks John! Wish I had another one to go ahead and make a 3 winged bowl...oh well!

[@TheMessyStudio]

Nice save, Robert! And a great looking piece!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Billy! Such a relieve that I caught it!

[@WoodenItBeNice]

Fantastic Rob. Take care. Cheers, Huw

Beautiful design and piece!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Ron!

[@BrickhouseCraftWorks]

Awesome hollow form Hodge! I’ve been wanting give one of these a try but, been really hesitant to do so. Loved watching the video screen of the holllowing process! Really neat! Another great project! GREAT CATCH!!! 😂

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha, yeah that was a frightening moment there. I can't say anything bad about the video hollowing system. It's makes it insanely easy to turn thin hollow forms.

[@TournageDubois]

Another awesome.piece, my friend!!!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks DD, glad you like it!

[@johnscasting4367]

Looks brilliant hodge

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks John, I was pretty happy with how it turned out.

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Very, very nice!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thank you Valerie!

[@larrystanley3886]

new to your videos lovw them its good to see a video that has humor in it!!! Thanks

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Larry! I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but figured there's loads of other turning videos for those who don't enjoy the humor.

Wow, that is super cool Robert. Love it! 😎

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Tim! Glad you think so!

[@BadAppleWoodwerx]

@@HodgePodgeWoodWorks I was also surprised that you had never tried to turn on point like that.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

@@BadAppleWoodwerx For the longest time I've just stuck to traditional bowls. I've only done like 3 or 4 hollow forms since I started turning.

[@BadAppleWoodwerx]

@@HodgePodgeWoodWorks Hollow forms scare me because I don't have a hollowing system or a steady rest so doing anything "deep" gets freaky quick. Plus the lack of any real "vision" as to what is happening in there scares me. Your trick with the masking tape on the screen and sketching the tool tip was brilliant. But then I'd need a live view camera setup. Oh well, some day, maybe.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

@@BadAppleWoodwerx yeah, the captive system and the video hollowing makes it nearly fool proof.

[@chrischarlton1033]

Looks awesome Hodge, well done.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Chris!

[@gaowoodlab]

Great job,👍👍👍

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Gao!

[@dukaheritage9445]

Great piece brother 👍 and one hell of a save 😳

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha Thanks Todd. I think you're catch/save would make it higher on Sports Center though.

[@misfit4777]

Very cool 😎 👍🏼

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Allen!

[@stephanielovatt2787]

This piece is a very interesting shape. It has my attention sufficiently, that I might try it sometime!

[@PotgieterWoodturning]

Very nice Robert 😁👍🏼👏

Thanks Japie and Happy Birthday!

[@PotgieterWoodturning]

@@HodgePodgeWoodWorks thank you Robert

[@JiggsysShed]

Great work Hodge and awesome save at the end there.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Jiggsy!

[@WhiskeyDale]

another great turn

[@copperowlwoodturning5929]

Real nice job. That looks great , Robert. 👍👍🤩 And once the danish oil is dry, in 3 days, you can coat it with lacquer. Lol. 😂😂😂

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha! Maybe I'll just have to try that!

[@SteveC38]

Great Piece Hodge!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Steve C!

[@MoleValleyMaker]

Great catch at the end! The form is great though.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha! Thanks! My heart skipped a few beats as is slipped out of my hands.

[@BAILEYWOODWORKS]

Very cool hodge!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Bailey!

[@LeonaFayWoodturning]

That’s fantastic, i love how it warped, really adds to the overall look of it 👍

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Me too Leona! I'm really having a blast with these last few pieces of wood. I've still got two more blanks which I need to turn that like to do similar warping.

[@missteeturns]

Love it ❤, such an unusual form, I've not come across one before. Even as a hollow form turner I'm not sure if I could even attempt to make one like it.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

I'm sure you could do it! The only tricky part was trying to get the wings to meet the top of the hollow form in an appealing fashion.

[@vickiejenkinson2468]

Robert, when doing the hollow form are you watching the screen? You did an amazing job with this. I thought it was a goner!! Thank you for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Yes Vickie, for the majority of the time I'll be watching the screen. At least that's the case when I'm close to where the marker edge is touching the outside of the wood meaning I'm at my final thickness I want.

[@vickiejenkinson2468]

@@HodgePodgeWoodWorks that's gotta be different looking there instead of at where you're turning. I mean, I know you cannot see that with your eyes, but you know what I mean. I suppose it's just something to learn and practice at.

[@GavSedae]

Nice work Harry errr I mean Hodge

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha, thanks I think!

[@brentbeacroft3363]

Enjoyed

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

That's good to know Brent!

[@diydarkmatter]

wow turned out really beautiful Hodge buddy . give harry a nice pat for me hes such a good little beaver .take care buddy

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Dark and I'll make sure to rub my beaver for you.

[@ClivRog]

Slippery when oily. Well saved. Good job

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Thanks Clive. It was a bit scary!

[@tfturning]

That board is a stroke of genius!! I often struggle seeing the line too! I also really like it when technology meets turning!! Cool video and a really beautiful piece, great work!

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha, can't say it's my idea. I've seen Cindy Drozda do it in her IRD's to allow the viewer to see details clearer. I made one for my lives which also helped to have the camera not blow out light colored wood. Seemed to work well for this instance as well!

[@josephcraft2845]

Very nice

[@sergioamaralbelotrabalho8831]

Boa Noite!! que peça difícil de fazer parabéns

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Obrigado, foi um pequeno desafio!

[@williamellis8993]

Looks great, Robert. Harry should be wearing that after his comments. How wet was the wood? Those shavings looked like an indication. Take care. Bill

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha Bill. Yes the wood was very wet. At one point in the video you could see it dripping off the tool.

[@stevecassidy3222]

Great catch! You should take up cricket.

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Haha, Thanks Steve. I always thought I could be a pretty good Tight End in American Football if I was faster.

[@stevecassidy3222]

@@HodgePodgeWoodWorks Being British, I don't know the first thing about American Football, so I'll revert to quoting Hugh Laurie: "Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but it sounds damn saucy"

[@fnreedjoplin8463]

What burning tool did you use?

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

The one which I had in this video is the Colwood Cub. woodburning.com/pages/the-cub

[@Mike1962nz]

Fantastic. What is the hollowing system you use.?

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

The hollowing system is somewhat of a Frankenstein setup. The main part is a monster lathe hollowing system (they are no longer in business). I use Trent Bosch hollowing tools and a Steve Sinner Laser system that was converted to use a video camera.

[@Sidswoodworkingprojects]

Nice job. How long did it take to do that?

[@HodgePodgeWoodWorks]

Hmm, well I wanted to make sure to get the majority of the outside and hollowing done in the same day so it didnt move too much. I'd say probably 3 to 4 hrs total. But I waited about a week before applying the finish to allow some time for it to dry.

[@pierinorovani1351]

BELLO ,MI SEMBRA ABBIA IL BARICENTRO CHE PENDA UN PO,CIAO

[@chayacuevascohen2219]

It’s a lovely piece and you’re a very talented wood artist, however, as a woodworking teacher I was horrified to see you in flip-flops. Two cardinal rules in the wood shop: hair tied back and feet covered. Stay safe.
