This seems to be a Viking style bowl/plate lathe. Turning centers should be at elbow height for spindle turning. Bowl hooks are not for spindle turning, nor is round (branch) wood, unless you intend to split the turning in two. At least you actually have a spring pole.

You can still find food storage buildings known as stabu in many rural places in Norway

Great video, shame I found it so late. Channel hasn’t gotten another video in several years

lovely video I have only ever used Elder Futhark but am now looking into Younger Futhark thank you for sharing your knowledge blessings Halsa Valang

A nice demonstration.

I understand that most people didn't actually write with the Elder futhark but I also have a last name that starts with the letter G which the younger futhark does not have

Bro I was ready to see you hit that coin the way you lined it up. Not tap it 😂

Thank you for a special look into the past....very interesting and informative!

Love the video! Thank you!!! I’m just starting to learn the Runes so yes! Loved it!

Fascinating! I haven’t tried the tums and soda ash, but found that if I used very dilute ammonia as an after-bath, my wool would turn fluorescent yellow. I’m actually knitting with some of my weld-dyed yarn on a reproduction of a 1950s cardigan. Not particularly Viking….

“Tyr is missing one of its arms.” Lol

Younger Futhark is quite a bit more complicated than Elder Futhark, but both are fascinating! Thank you for the video!

Fascinating, and good pronunciation in the beginning there, do you have any Scandinavian heritage?

Can you help me i need to make 4 bands in younger futhark runes. Can you tell me words for War, warrior, life, love, peace, eternity, chaos, and destruction. It would mean so much to me and help me out so much I'm not educated on thr younger futhark and i only have 4 days to make these 4 bands

I've found that unrolled cotton balls make good test subjects that you can make a small amount of a dye to test it out. Also one way to tell if there's a lot of iron in your tap water is if you regularly get a pink slimy film on your bathtub and sink that you have to scrub off. That pink film is a bacteria that consumes iron. So if you get it in your apartment building you know that there's at least a little iron in your water. I also recently experimented with heating my water in a kettle that looked like it was made of bronze, but could also be copper. Using this water to brew purple cabbage yarn made a lighter color with an unearthly glow to it. Not a literal glow, I mean the shade it developed. It was incredible. Also don't forget that besides urine you can get alkali from potash. Put your ashes out in a pot or jar before it rains, and then let the rainwater fill the jar and seep in. Oak produced high quality potash.

I am from in a program for Scandinavian Studies and I see these every now and again to see how people pronounce-butcher these. Most are WRONG. YOU are one of the few who pronounce these mostly correctly! ❤ (*Raidho is pronounced rye-tho) Really awesome video though and thanks for pronouncing the rest correctly!!!❤

I am so trying to get purple and fushia! I have not used natural things to dye fiber, except paper, it's going to be fun experimenting, I have 2 different lichen on trees in my yard so already collected some off the ground! Thank you

I had to sub and show some Norse love glad to find a fellow brother of the Norse

jep ... that was a very very "little series of woodworking" ... 🤷‍♂

interesting

So good!

Awesome!!! Saludos desde Argentina ❤️🇦🇷

Thank you for a fascinating tutorial 🤗💐🌼💐

Which pattern are you using? - what does it look like?

THIS WAS AWESOME... You're so clear n consis I'm just sitting here writing the letters over n over and just LISTENING n sounding out with you.....AWESOME Gonna play this n write every morning till i get it... i see you have other lessons...GREAT... I'LL BE WATCHING!!!!! THANK YOU 😊

I see redwoods! Where do you live??

Awesome video. Super useful.

I would have liked to see the pattern as you go over and under, to understand better!

I would like þis video, but its at 69 likes.

really helped, almost butchered some people names!

This was genuinely so cool to watch! Thanks so much!

🥰🙏😍 Thank you... Light and Love 4 U 💛♥️ Greetings from Germany

Where did you get that ricer?

Hi, love the lathe and what you are doing 🙂. Can you tell me where I can get drawings or instructions on how to make a Viking lathe please. Grant 🇦🇺

Short twig is much easier to carve

"Tyr is missing one of its arms." I see what you did there.

I was curious about what Vikings ate besides meat and beer.

How long would you leave the bread on the fire for?

What is the approximate weight of one of the insulators?

Excellent vid

Cool

my guy thank you so much for this you seriously you saved my arse with an assignment that was due at midnight don’t worry I credited you in my bibliography

Great work on the history and I like the fact you used real cordage. Great looking lathe.

Thank you, really interesting video! Especially liked the photos of the Viking pieces and will check out the link. Thanks again and take care :)

I can get most of the changes that were done when they simplified the runic alphabet and created the younger futhark. However, I still don't understand why the younger futhark didn't keep the Dagaz, Pertho, Gebo and the Ehwaz runes for /d/, /p/, /g/ and /e/. It's kind of making things more complicated. I've also heard that the rune yr made an /y/ vowel sound too. Is that true?

Interesting video! Thanks!

You are supposed to be pronouncing Fé as “Fje” (pronounced as the word “fee” with an eh at the end”) Same with all words that have au in them, which are actually pronounced as öy/øy. Also the “Ó” in Óss, should be pronounced as how you would pronounce the letter “O” in modern English. The “Á” Ár is supposed to be pronounced as the expression “ah” and “ooh” combined together like “ah-ooh-“. The double L ending (ll) in “Hagall” should be pronounced as the letters “T” and “L” at the same time. Like if you try saying it fast, then you will get a sound similar to the “ch” in the word “child” only it sounds like someone’s trying to say it with a lisp. That’s at least how you should pronounce it, from the reference point of how it is pronounced in Icelandic, which is the language that is the most similar to Old Norse. It is so identical in fact, it’s considered a dialect off of Old Norse, not a separate language.

This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for posting, and especially for the border trick. That seems genius, and I wonder if it'd work for regular tablet weaving to make things look neater... will have to experiment. Where do you find your patterns for brocading?

Nice video. I wish I had the room for a traditional lathe with the pole like yours, but I have to have a portable one. One thing that may help you as well, when you release the treadle, move the tool away from the work. It dulls the tool much faster. If you watch the video (not mine, but it is of me) you can see what I am talking about. instagram.com/p/B8l0cySB_IU/ I am still learning as well, and try to help others as I can.

Thanks for the really interesting info about brocade-weaving (borders etc.) ... Hello from Germany :-)
