wood turning is SICK!!!
-
That is overly unsafe for your hand to be sitting on the piece & thumb resting on tool rest. Anyone watching this that is new to wood turning, PLEASE do NOT do that, Veterans become over-comfortable with their machines; But NO ONE should EVER do what he is doing there. A smaller wood lathe is mostly capable of taking fingers & in some serious cases, Hands. Just remember, SAFETY

hello shazam! it's not a jaw chuck, it's a "gobelet" chuck, which fits M33-3,5
it's in fact a cylinder here a 40mm diameter , in which you insert the wood,
it holds very firmly
a little more time consuming than a jaw chuck , but very securit

this is not a string , it is a piece of wire of small diameter
you can use a copper or brass or iron thread to burn the wood
depending on the thickness of the mark you want
it's better to cut a groove first ...

@b21tracer how can he hold the piece of tree when its spinning without hurting himself?

@lordem4
when the piece of wood is already round and the speed of the lathe not too fast , under 2000rpm
it doesn't hurt at all ,! it's a way to "feel" the finish... all wood turners do that :--))
what is unusual is the one-hand manipulation of the spindle gouge
