where do you get your wood?

[haydenHD]

Where ever I can :) I've been turning a long time and friends are always on the lookout for me. I also get a lot off the beach.

hi carl, i think i would actually just leave the coffee holder loose without using glue..just have it as a wooden sleeve...the reason being is that i've had more than one of those thermos things start leaking so it would be nice to be able to throw it away and just slip another one in if needed...but then maybe glue would solve this problem???dont know.... also out of curiousity...what is the name of that big gouge.scraper you use and what wood lathe do you use???...great video yet again!!

[haydenHD]

Thanks, Probably a good idea or maybe just a spot of hot glue. I got the large round nose scraper at Woodcraft. My lathe is a Delta.

did u turn that out of greenwood or was it dry and what kind of wood was that?

[haydenHD]

It was dry and I used Maple.

Thats a nice coffee cup. I'm still getting all my tools and lathe parts together. Hope to be trying a few projects soon. Well I have turned a couple of pens. They turned out OK. Turned out, no pun intended. Gonna go for a walk in my woods tomorrow and see if I can find a burl or something. Got a big Pear tree that has to come down. I'll try some of that.

Pearwood should be nice and hard I'd like to see that finished. I've never turn pearwood.

I have used both the inserts form Craft Supply USA and Woodcraft, (same product manufacturer) and am not too happy with with them the stainless is nice but the lid is sub standard. the slider after a few uses will not lock open or closed. I contacted both suppliers but neither has a fix. Looking for an alternate insert supply if anyone knows of any.

Thanks for all the awsome videos. I just started turning and use your videos for projects.

[haydenHD]

Glad to help, It's great to see so many people interested in turning.

Thanks,

Carl

Hey Carl....where does one get one of those beefy scrapers? Thanks for posting

[haydenHD]

I got it at "woodcraft"

[diablothe2nd]

from someone new to turning, it's reassuring to see an experienced turner still gets catches with a skew chisel (06:15). At least I know, no matter how much practise I have, I've still got to be wary with that particular tool! :D

Question though, the fella that taught me, told me that when i'm carving out the inside, to go from the outside in... and not the inside out (as you've shown).... and never use the bowl gouge in reverse.

I'm curious as to why this is?

[haydenHD]

No matter how long you have been turning in my experience you are going to catch a chisel sometimes.

The bowl gouge is more prone to catch. I would go from the outside in, to have less of a chance of catching.

Thanks,

Carl

great videos!

i learn so much, so how do you wash it?

im gonna make a bunch of these

[haydenHD]

You need to wash them by hand.

Thank you,

Carl

Hi Carl, another good video , where did you get the cup inserts?

Thanks

[haydenHD]

I had the insert but Woodcraft has inserts that are shorter I

ordered some there $9.99 each. This is a great gift idea.

Thanks,

Carl

[aardvark991]

I Enjoy & learn from your videos a lot

Nice Mug :)

What type of chuck(s) do you use, they seem to work well and I am starting to look for one for my lathe

[haydenHD]

It's a Nova chuck I have two I have the other one on my big lathe.

Thanks,

Carl

[baconsoda]

That's a good job. I have to get back to the lathe. I have a piece of Laurel sitting in the chuck since the start of January and it hasn't moved a turn. I was very sick for 2 months back then but the garden has taken over my life recently. Maybe I'll get something done next week.

Best Wishes, Brendan.

[haydenHD]

Hi Brenden, You can't have to many hobbies! Your garden looks great and like a big job. love the spuds on the GO:)

Thanks

Carl
