@SpragueWoodturning 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks Gerry. I like to use end grain sealer caller Anchorseal from UC Coatings to put on logs prior to cutting them into bowls, I just put on all of the ends of the logs. Once the bowl has been roughed out I completely cover the bowl in it as well. It does a good job slowing down the drying process, helping to prevent any checking or cracking. Safe turning!

Really enjoyed the tutorial style of this video. Thanks for plugging chainsaw safety classes as well - too many pick up these monster machines of destruction without someone to guide them. Luckily, I had a wonderful grandfather to teach me some 35 years ago when he decided I was old enough to be the firewood getter. How long do you let your fresh cuts sit before you put Anchorseal on them? I've been trying to get mine on as soon as I cut them - couple of hours at most. That usually means leaving them rough, then use the bandsaw just before putting them on the lathe. It seems that you rough cut one day, round them on the bandsaw the next and put plastic on them at some point thereafter, then Anchorseal after your first turning? Am I missing something? Thanks for any feedback. I haven't been turning all that long and have access to plenty of good green wood if I want it.

@SpragueWoodturning 3 жыл бұрын

I can usually rough cut and round the blanks on the bandsaw in one day, remember I’m doing this in a production setting. If I went out and only cut 10 blanks, I could probably get it done in one day. I find there’s not any big rush to get the sealer on them until they are rough turned. The chainsaw is certainly one of the most dangerous tools that we use and demands to utmost respect! Safe turning. Jim

I use old upright freezers, drill holes on both sides top and bottom, install a light in the bottom for a heat source and small fan to move air. I start with a 40w incandescent light for two weeks, then 60w for two weeks and finish with 100w for two weeks. This will take a total of six weeks and things should be dried to 7%. I’m looking for a freezer now to do a video and post it here. Hope this helps.

@hughj776 Жыл бұрын

With the strength of epoxy have you considered doing pieces that are centered on the pith? I know that is typically not the way bowl turning is done and you would get a lot of warping. But cracks in a starburst pattern from the centre (or alternately removing the pith and adding an epoxy core) might make a really interesting bowl. Or do you think the epoxy would not be strong enough to keep the bowl from warping?

@SpragueWoodturning Жыл бұрын

With epoxy leaving the pith incorporated in pieces is certainly doable and in a couple of hollow forms that’s exactly what I’ve done. Not totally sure if I’m a fan of it yet, lol. Thanks for watching

I've purchased a gallon of Anchor Seal from what I thought was the Canadian site for them, but it turns out they priced their product in US dollars so I got stung for the exchange. The shipping was also a ridiculous amount that when added with the exchange more than doubled my cost.. I ended up $115 out of pocket for a gallon. Lee Valley carries an Log End Grain Sealer that's made in the US. I called to see if it's made by UC Coatings but they couldn't (or wouldn't) tell me. Have you used the Lee Valley product? It'll land at my door at around $60.00. I hate getting ripped off but will pay for a product that works. It seems the Anchor Seal is doing what it promises as I have logs treated and set aside with no visible checking so far but if I can get the same stuff from a Canadian suppler at 1/2 the price, I'm all in. .

@SpragueWoodturning 3 жыл бұрын

Ok, so back in July I payed $233 CDN for a 5 gallon bucket. I don’t know what to tell you, I was told by them that it would ship out of a warehouse in Brampton. I didn’t even think you could buy 1 gallon cans from them. I thought 5 gallon was the minimum you could get. With all that said, yes I’ve used the Lee Vally stuff and it acts and behaves like the UC coatings stuff and it probably is. That’s a lot of money for a gallon can, wow.

@siph2o 3 жыл бұрын

@@SpragueWoodturning Thanks for the quick reply and for the update! I'll be buying the Lee Valley stuff the next time. I didn't know UC had 5 gallon cans, but that would be way too much for my needs and they could probably bury me with 1/2 the can. FYI the stuff I did get from UC Coatings shipped out of Alliston Ontario, but it's just a trucking transfer station. King City Containers, 6711 13th line, Alliston Ontario.
