i bought the lancelot couple yrs ago, and never used it !! i was wondering,, to make bowls like you ...should i go donut style or flat for the saburr tooth wheel. your work is truly amazing tanks for posting such great videos
@Worrall82 I recommend donut wheels because the roundness of the disk allows you to make smoother surfaces at any angle. Also, get two! The orange extra coarse one, and the fine yellow disk. No need to buy a green/brown intermediate disk, waste of money. Good luck!
I have to say... those candle holders are stunning beautiful. I'm also getting into carving, although my wood choices are far different compared to yours; I had never heard of Golden chain before this.
Do you use any of the lancelot or squire angle grinder blades?
@exrated Thx for your nice comment. :) I indeed use blades for the Angle grinder. They are 'Saburr-tooth' carbide disks. Much safer, and only little slower then the Lancelot type of chainsaw blades. Seriously, I am a pro tree feller, and those disks scare me. If they grab clothes, they will totally maul you up because you can't reach the off switch in time, and the wound cannot be stitched because the edges are to rough.. Be safe!
@Mueiwark I hear you, I've had a few 'accidents' with my table saw and not much scares me... but having a mini-chainsaw so close to your hands just seems so... wrong!
I use the saburr tooth brand bits for my dremel and foredom carvers, so I may just look those up instead. Keep up the excellent work!
@n1ck3o7 They are called 'Saburr Tooth' disks, if you do a Google search you'll find the company that sells them. I see you're from the UK, so you might look at 'Toolpost' dot Co dot UK.
I have. I grew up in Alaska where every other tree is a birch. And yes birch to grow burls. I have not seen them often though. I have seen swirly burls and pin burls on birch.
@OregonBurls Thx Greg, appreciate it. I will be posting a vid soon of a large bowl made out of a Birch burl, astonishing marble-like grain pattern! Have you ever seen Birch burls?
Awesome work! I'm just getting into it and bought all the tools, but have a few questions: When you made those bowls, did you have those rough cross sections drying for years? I'm hoping I can go in the forest and chainsaw some fallen trees. Also, What kind of griding pad do you use? Thanks
You are amazing.
