A common question when people see me turn in live demo's and video comments is if that is actually how fast I turn in real life. My answer is always, "It depends". But 90% of the time it's no. In real life production work I turn a bit slower because that is a marathon. Video's and demo's are more a sprint. I can't maintain that pace for hours on end. Plus when in the monotony mode my mind wanders so I take lots of breaks.
This video, while cut to show different angles, is more in line with my production speed when making tops. I maintain the adage "slow is fast" and focus on taking big bites to remove waste and slow speed/increase burnishing pressure to improve the finish cut to point I don't have to sand. I also take my time coloring to focus on solid lines and a multitude of designs.
So yes, I can turn one top in 30 seconds. It's not a hard skill to learn. Anyone can with practice. But more likely I'll do 15-20 in an hour which is a pace I can maintain. Do the math and that's turning at a little better than minimum wage. I view it as steady, dependable cash flow and that evens out the waves of income from other avenues.
And Yes, compared to the street vendors in India that's embarrassingly slow. But those turners are wizards.
Meh, maybe that's of interest to someone.
