Woodturning Unique Walnut Vase

[@squareandlevel]

I am turning this vessel from a piece of walnut crotch wood I won in a raffle at my local woodturners club meeting. I had some indecision about what resin project to do next, I just couldn’t pick one from the list. So I decided to take a break and make something out of just wood for a change. Definitely a fun, quick piece and I got some practice in with my all my tools. Even got to try out my new lathe stay support. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!

[@jackknows6509]

You sure saw the beauty in that piece. Great work, beautiful vase.

[@squareandlevel]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@scotter_dotter]

That was real man work roughing that in! Great job.

[@squareandlevel]

Thanks Scott! Think I should make more videos with just using wood? That resin takes a long time to cure. I could make a whole extra video in that time. Worth a shot? Thanks again for watching and commenting on all my videos since the beginning!

[@squareandlevel]

Thank you!

[@johnbrereton4756]

Beuteful vase, worts an all, very natural .

[@JamesCouch777]

Very elegant! I like that you left some of the imperfections in the piece. I try to do that in every piece I turn. It's kinda like letting the wood sign it. 👍👌

[@squareandlevel]

Thanks James. I couldn’t agree more. Hope you have a great day!

[@johnemmett2969]

A delightful outcome!

[@jimrosson6702]

Very cool turned out beautiful

[@MightyWizardTim]

Nice vase. The black CA looks good. A suggestion, on your sanding extension on your drill, slide a piece of copper pipe on so you can hold that and not the turning extension, if you want.

[@squareandlevel]

Thanks for the tip Tim. Hope you have a great day!

[@edwarddolphin9123]

Beautiful workmanship

[@squareandlevel]

Thank you very much!

[@johnbrereton4756]

You make it look so easy

[@brucewatt2864]

Nice looking piece. How did you find the steady support. I recntly got one and was happy with it. Not as robust as some but on a limited budget it was good enough for me.Thanks for sharing much appreciated. Cheers Bruce

[@squareandlevel]

Thanks for watching Bruce. I really wanted to make my own but am constantly short on time. I picked this one up pretty cheap on amazon. It’s definitely not as robust as what I would prefer but gets the job done and provides some safety to the task. I figured I could at least use the hardware and wheels when I get around to making my own. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!

[@paulkupperman7049]

What were you using to apply the Yorkshire Grit?

[@squareandlevel]

Just a blue shop paper towel. Thanks for watching! Hope you have a great day.

[@paulkupperman7049]

@@squareandlevelAt 5:10 it looks like it's a white sponge or sanding pad of some sort.

[@squareandlevel]

Your right! I’m sorry about that, I forgot. I used a small piece of white fine scotch bright pad on this piece. It’s the same pad I use to apply hard wax oil finishes to my table tops.

[@paulkupperman7049]

​@@squareandlevelThank you! I haven't used grit for polishing before, I've just used sandpaper/sanding mesh. I'm thinking about trying some, and was wondering about the best way to use it.

[@mdaley3102]

Nice work with the big knobby end, your vision came through. How do you like your Simple Hollowing system? Looks like a cool tool. I wonder if it would fit my midsize Jet lathe. I’d appreciate your feedback on it to see if it’s something worth looking into. Thanks

[@squareandlevel]

I would suggest contacting simple woodturning tools directly about any fitment questions. I cant imagine it wouldn't fit, but definitely don't want to give you wrong info. I'm really happy with my hollowing system purchace. I did pay full price for this tool before I contacted them for an affiliate partnership. I do not have any experience with any other brands ,so keep that in mind. I can say once its set up and adjusted properly it makes hollowing a fair amount easier and feels way safer than hollowing free hand. I also really like the laser attachment , it gives a perfect point of reference for where the cutter is at on the inside of vessel. Really reduces the bending over and looking inside. Hope that helps a bit. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!

[@larryhill6187]

How long did it take for the raw linseed oil to cure?

[@richardbusuttil9252]

What is the black liquid that was used to fill the cracks in the timber?

[@squareandlevel]

Black CA glue. If I were to make this piece again, I would have filled the holes and cracks with coffee grounds and then backfilled that with the CA glue. I think it would have turned out nicer and used less glue. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I hope you have a great day! Scott

[@RossNobles]

Can you tell me about the mount for the castors under your Jet bandsaw? I really like that mount & have the same bandsaw. Thanks!

[@squareandlevel]

I bought that bandsaw used and it came with the casters. Fairly positive they are a Jet factory accessory. Might check Jets website. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!

[@RossNobles]

⁠thanks! I checked their website & their parts list but the site is not user friendly. I could find the actual castors but not the cast iron piece the castors mount on. If you run across a part number, I’d be very grateful if you would send it my way! Thank you!

[@3DThrills]

Looks like English Walnut. I bought a lot of it as picture framing material but I far prefer Black Walnut. Both woods are not even really similar to each other.
