That is amazing! You are a true artist. I don't know anything about wood turning, I came here because I had been looking at videos about Cognac, and this was a recommended video.

I am really impressed!

@MrZhabadasher thank you

It's a bad idea to use gloves when turning... My firend almost lost his thumb becouse of that.

But it's really nice video that shows your skills. Best regards, Greg

P.S.

Is that a pine wood?

[WoodturnerTroms]

yes it's pine

very nice turning and love the way you are turning in the outdoors. If i did that here in the summer i would either roast or be eaten alive by flies or skeeters. hope to see more of your turnings.

@frogdiver45 Can I answer this one for you, All wood is an insulater, what helps even more is what you use as a finish on the inside, I use Envirotex Lite on mine and make sure it is pretty thick coating, I drink cold and hot out of my mugs and it keeps pretty cold and hot.

Nice little Cognac glass, But can I give you a couple sugestions? Lose those gloves, Do not where that type of jacket with the long sleaves, lose the watch and any other jewlrey! All can get caught up and injure you very badly. Safety is #1 so you can make that next piece!

I wear a tear away glove with no fingers on my left hand it is much safer, if it gets caught the glove will rip of and not bind. I hate the chips hitting me in my hand, sometime it hurts pretty bad!

Keep on turning!

Really good work. How much???

G,day!! Older post but if your lathe still has to be started by hand you need to change the capacitor on the top of the motor hidden under the small metal casing. Easy job. These are classed as start run capacitors and do pack up.

nice turning. I am not quite outdoors but with both doors I face the street so have full view of the world as the day goes by.

Thanks for the post!

Nice goblet! What is the wood you used, maple? Also, what kind of lathe is that? I thought it was a Jet at first but then it didn't look right. Is it that Shop Fox 16/43? If so, how do you like it?.

very nicely done!

they say cognac is kept in oak barrels :) i wonder if the glass is made of oak wood as well.

cheers,
