As always, fantastic work. You’re such an inspiration to a new turner like myself. I’ve only had my Lathe since this past April. I’m now doing cherry bowl’s, black walnut bowl’s. Started doing Christmas ornaments. This morning I turned a rolling pin from a glue up I did yesterday. I’m gonna teach myself how to segmented stuff like this also. And I have been making torched flags for quite a while now. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you Gary. Have a great day. Sincerely, Keith.

@ThePapa1947 Жыл бұрын

Hi Keith, well it sure sounds like you are doing one very important thing in wood turning. Having Fun! As long as I have been turning the minute I stand in front of the lathe I start having fun. You have a nice variety of things your are doing. When you start on segments take your time. Not only on how easy you start with but just take your time and make sure everything fits before moving on. I find woodturning to be relaxing and do not rush it. Take care, Gary

This was just something to keep me away from that root ball that keeps calling LOL. Take care my friend, Gary

Hi, Gary. I'll have to commend you on your efforts on the segmented bowl. I haven't developed the patience necessary to cut and glue 504 segments (or 252, then cut in half!). With the figured burls that I have access to, I can turn a bowl with 503 fewer pieces! 🙂 I may graduate to your league someday but, for now, I'll leave those challenges to you. It certainly is a beautiful piece! Nice work! Take care, --Paul

@ThePapa1947 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you Paul. I think if I had a supply of figured burls I would be turning lots of them. Although I do love turning segmented turnings. Maybe I will glue together the trimmings I have from the few burls I have had. i never toss them! Thanks for watching, Gary

Great looking turning. Really like the way you rotated the rings slightly different for the first and second ring of each diameter. I’ve don’t two segmented projects. Would do more if I had a real table saw. I did one project where all the segments were the same wood. Surprisingly the first project which was maple and walnut was easier to do and looked much better. You seem to use a different finish on each of your turnings. Would love to see a spreadsheet of your projects with details on the finishing and why you chose the finishing material and application method.

@ThePapa1947 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you Bob. Happy you enjoyed the video. I have many choices of finish and just did one with shellac. I choose the finish based on the turning and how I want it to look. And which will be the easiest to put on. This finish was chosen because it would have been hard to spray lacquer on the inside. Where as the Polyacrylic can be wiped on and give a finish as nice as lacquer. Thanks for watching, Gary

I wasn't sure about your decision to change the shape of the bottom - but, I think you made the right decision! The final shape really looks good. I agree on the look of that edge grain - the way it glistens in the light is quite catching. Keep up these great videos ... I hope to have my shop and lathe up soon and may try some of your ideas.

Thank you very much. So I drew the vase just how I finished it. But when roughing it out I saw an option. But as I cleaned it up I watched how it was looking better tapered all the way down. Best of luck getting your shop going and have lots of fun. Gary

Beautiful Vase, Gary. Great idea to double your rings/segments. I glued up my first segmented bowl a couple of days ago. 3 rings 12 segments per for a total of 36 segments. Of corse, black walnut base and segments. Turning it tonight. 😊 Take care, Rob.

@ThePapa1947 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks Rob. When gluing the ring up that way you need to plan that out on the drawing. Normally each row will create the shape based on the diameter. But not hard to work out at all. I will watch for your first segmented bowl. I assume you will make a video of it. Take care, Gary

You knocked that project outa the park my friend. That is well planned well executed and simply beautiful. Always a pleasure to watch you turn a segmented piece. Shows what I'm doing wrong...almost everything !

Outstanding, Gary! You nailed the pattern and form. I was audibly saying, "no!" as you reduced the base size. Then I realized it was better and that you have more experienced taste and ability. Beautifully done and worth the wait to see.

Thank you very much Jay. I created the sketch and had the base just like the finished product. I had not finished shaping the base when I saw another option. But something told me to stick with what I had drawn and happy I did. Thanks for watching my friend, Gary

Thanks Gary for another informative video. I appreciate the explanation Lon how and why you oriented the boards the way you did to get the strips to make the segments. It was useful to understanding how you got the great final look. Thanks again. Cheers, Tom

@ThePapa1947 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much Tom. There are times when it might be faster to do it the other way or maybe save some wood. Such as cutting 3/8" strips which would have been quick and saved a little wood. But I would have lost the wonderful grain. Thanks for watching, Gary

Beautiful piece Gary. If I have one that’s inside is hard to turn I just put my lathe in reverse so it’s easier to see. I have a locking chuck so it won’t unscrew or at least haven’t yet 😁 I also sand and finish while I’m going because I’m not comfortable sticking my hand in a deep piece while it’s spinning & have had sanding and finishing sticks get pulled out of my hand.

@ThePapa1947 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the good information. I also turn in reverse when it is hard to see. And for sure turning as you glue up is needed for something like this. I turned and sanded 3 times as I recall. So about every 3 inches. I did all the finishing on the inside with soft cloth one the end of a stick. Thanks for watching, Gary

That is a really great piece Gary! Really nice! I love to watch it spin on the lathe. I just can't bring myself to make that many segments. Maybe if I had more than an hour or 2 per week I would feel more like it.

Thanks Chris! When I retired I decided I would have all the time I wanted to do things. Little did I know I would be very busy with lots of things. Like getting bark dust out of my truck and putting where the boss wanted it LOL Thanks for watching, Gary

Wow Gary! Another amazing creation! Every time you do another segmented project, I get more inspired to try segments. I have always been just a "turn the block of wood round" kind of guy, but I think I will be doing some segments as soon as I can. I love your methodical approach, and explaining the reasons for each step. It's a real learning experience. Also, you mentioned in the beginning that you made a drawing, that's a really important part of doing a project like this. Maybe a topic for a future video. Thanks for a great lesson, and another beautiful project! See you soon!

Thank you very much Mark. Without a drawing there would be a whole heck of a lot of wood wasted. Thanks for watching, Gary
