Dennis shows us how tl make a top that once spun, turns itself over and turns on it's handle. Always fun to play with tops and especially hang out with our woodturning brothers!

The explanations here seem very clear. I think I will try. I was a bit overwhelmed by other videos

I've never used a roughing gouge like that and probably never will. Wouldn't a peeling cut with a skew be easier?

@BobAmarant Жыл бұрын

Agree. I would have used a skew or Bedan but to each their own. Thanks for visiting .

Awesome. Will any permanent marker work? I don't think we have sharpies in South Africa

Congratulate the turner. Fire the cameraman. The turning is excellent and the commentary is top notch. 👍👍This would have been so much more enjoyable if the camera operator had use a fixed camera base or tripod of some sort. The camera movement almost made the video unwatchable. 👎👎Still, thank you for sharing. 😀😀I think I got enough out of this to be able to do one of my own. The dimensions used are very instructive. 👍👍Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

The project is great, however I am astounded that you wear a watch while operating a lathe. It comes awfully close to the chuck. Promoting such a practice is not good.
