Not saying I disagree, but his channel IS called ‘Woodturning Crazy’

No. Sorry.

😄

Like a final solution for safety you mean? Maybe you can call it Safety-Auschwitz...

Still has all his fingers after 40years of woodworking.

Totally agree, he is very good at what he does but he scares me

😂😂😂

Two of my brothers learned the hard way. One took the tips off of 3 of his fingers and the other one was ripping a bed sheet of wood resulting in a trip to the ER with less thumb. 😢

It's a miracle any of us still have fingers 😂

the way these fingers look, they might destroy the table saw

his nickname is lefty.

And his hands... wearing gloves when using powerful rotating machinery is a bad idea if they get snagged. As my first engineering instructor told us, never put your finger where you wouldn't put your dick...

Thought the same thing

I also want a tube drill of the middle!

Same.

Thats what I would've done. I have never used a lathe but I know that much.

One slip, is all it takes, not sure why people don't use the safety devices designed to keep your fingers/hands anywhere NEAR that blade. That's my safety tip for the day.

Four things going for him… that’s the number of fingers he’ll have on each hand. IF he’s lucky.

@@joepublisher166 I think these tools predate the concept of safety devices. If I had a shop of these same tools. I'd be afraid to go in there. Much less turn anything on and use it.

Bet he outlives you too.

That’s all you have to say after watching this lol

What caught my eye for safety was him wearing gloves and not rolling his sleeves up while turning that block of wood on the lathe, my high school shop teacher made us watch safety films and take a test about this before we could operate any of the equipment. All it takes is one snag and he’s going to get pulled into the lathe and seriously injured or killed.

@@JohnFourtyTwo what should catch your eye is the amazing work he’s doing, not his sleeves lol

@@gregman0007 He does amazing work but being a safety supervisor the last 35 years makes me focus on safety first.

Thought the same thing. Table saw safety isn't his strong suit

@@ug333 So did I. Seeing the fingers so close to the saw was disturbing.

Yes, the safety violations were horrific. But, you thought this was nice work? It was rushed, hogged out, grain torn out, voids in not gluing some pieces, and disgusting finish. It was mass-produced shite. I've seen better results from pallet wood.

@@communitycollegegenius9684 , do you have any of your own works of art to display?

@@wendelltaylor1081 While I do have 3 beautiful wood boats, water skis, almost 100 sets of large stadium speakers etc. I passed my written and safety tests on the lathe as a freshman in high school in 1974. What you are doing is of fallacious logic. You are requiring a person to have more talent/experience than the person they are criticizing. It's like saying that YOU can't tell if the milk in the fridge has gone bad because you're not a cow. Certainly we can all see a diamond ring is beautiful without being a volcano. How can YOU say it's good unless YOU have adequate experience to judge? I listed the things I saw wrong in my first post. Anyone experienced with even WATCHING wood-turning videos could see how bad it is. You are without logic. You fail.

and you can guarantee someone will try to imitate him, and have the chisel flick up into their face. Downvoting this video.

@@ballistyxwot4577Its not an instructional video. You downvote extreme sports videos in case somebody tries to imitate them?

Loved how he held his thumb near the end of the chisel when he started.

@@josephschmeggins6311 If they make rookie mistakes like trying to turn a square piece, then yes, probably. A hang-glider who doesn't attach a safety harness, a rock climber wearing hiking boots, a skateboarder without a helmet etc. Stupidity is rife, and some people will almost certainly try to emulate what they see in these videos. Downvoting tells youtube's algorithm to tone down the promotion of particular videos, and perhaps those halfwits who think the can safely do these things will instead see a video that shows sensible methods.

Sorry to upset you but it is only in the last 100 years or so that we have had the synthetic adhesives that would hold together under the turning process.

me too, but this is so much more interesting than the cutting boards would be.

I don't think people use lathes to make cutting boards 😂. Lathe mills round objects...

Watching him cut the blonde board, my stomach did a flip. He’s going to lose a few digits at some point.

You're not trying hard enough 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Good

That sucker didn’t wiggle at all .
