Pin chuck works great. Thanks
Thanks! How did the pin chuck come out?
I enjoy your videos. I just started turning and am making a few decent things and messing up a lot more. Made a pin chuck after watching another of your videos. Thanks and keep em coming.
thanks !!
It is a Delta lathe.
what kind of machine is that ??
Hi Bob,
The wood was dry. I have had it for a few years but yes if it was still wet it will split if left that thick apple is very hard. A ring or bracelet I’ll see what I can do.
Thanks,
Carl
It looks like the wood was not dry before you turned it. If it is still wet aren’t you aftraid that the vase will crack as it dries since the bottom and walls are thick? I’d like to see you post videos on turning a finger ring and bracelet. Please keep posting your videos. You are doing a great job.

Thanks Carl,
I like the softer finish wax gives but I think that’s because I’m too lazy to apply 400 coats of poly and rub down in between each.

Hi Angler,
I’m putting up the “Bat video” tomorrow
Thanks,
Hi Brendan,
I Don’t think there is a differnce with sanding from start to finish with the wax. I mostly do it to eliminate the dust and I like the satin finish.
Thanks,
Carl
awesome video as always….thanks again for sharing…
thank you and ya thats what i was talking about
Very nice!
I’ve noticed how you use wax right from the start of the sanding process. I use wax sanding if I have a difficult finish so that I get a slurry that helps seal the wood but I’ve never used wax routinely to sand. Do you find it gives a better finish than dry sanding and then waxing?
Best Wishes,
Brendan
I’ll try to work on the bat. Jam? Are you talking about when it stops as I’m sanding? I have the pulley open that is why it stops. Thanks.
why does your lathe jam so much and can you please make a vid on how to turn a baseball bat if you can thanks
