Kyler nice job turning a flat board from a log. Very clever way of getting the job done. Also like your last video it is great lathe practice. Apple is really a nice wood. I have some a picked up awhile back. I turned some bowls from it and used walnut oil and they looked OK. Then I finished some with poly and it really brought the beauty out of the wood.I have to admit I would probably use my joiner and planer to get the job done but sometimes I wish I had the room instead of the machines.

ThePapa1947 That's just the thing eh Gary? You work with what you got and make it work. If I had the other equipment that would be more fitting for the job I definitely would use them instead. I also found that poly really helped to pop the figure out in Apple wood. It's almost like Walnut oil and other softer oils dont dry hard enough or build up enough to really make it seem finished. Where if you put Walnut oil on Oak, it already seems like a good look. Thanks again for stopping by Gary, much appreciated! Kyler

Totally agree that oak looks just fine with walnut oil. Again very impressive making a flat board on the lathe. I think It is much harder to make something flat straight and parallel than it is to do curved surfaces. I turned my first Madrone today. A nice goblet with amazing colors. Take care and keep it coming. Gary

ThePapa1947 That cool to hear that you find that same thing with oils and different woods! Flattening a board on the lathe actually went better than I thought, and really didn't take much time either! I have heard great things about Madrone. I bet that Goblet is just beautiful. I believe Madrone is one of Robo Hippie's (here on KZitem) favourite woods. I admit I'm jealous of the selection of woods found in your area, but I really shouldn't complain because I as well have access to plenty of hardwoods. Just in my area it's more of the standard woods besides the odd butternut or diseased Chokecherry lol

Applewood is beautiful, very good point concerning the blue shop-towel's, Great job keeping the live-edge's on, I'd have bark embedded in the ceiling..LOL Take Care Ty and Have a great weekend..

Cynthia Herr Thank you kindly Cynthia! Apple is beautiful, and the wood is so smooth and even grained it just feels good too. If I get the wood in the winter time (when the tree is dormant) it keeps the bark much better. In the summer the cambium layer between the bark and sapwood is so full of water you can literally just peel it off by hand! Im just curious, have you done any wood turning yourself Cynthia? Your observation about the bark made my think you do, or maybe another type of woodworking with live edge? Or maybe you have a high amount of perspicacity and see into things easily lol Btw don't ask how I know (or found out) about the blue dye in the shop towels lol I appreciate your kind words and insights Cynthia!

Really pretty piece, Ky! I LOVE that grain, the natural edge and satin finish! Ya done good! That's one way to get a flat board. One way of making possible warping a non issue with the feet and wobble is to use only three of them. Maybe one in the center of the back and two up front since they will be seen. Using only three it will always sit level regardless of any warp. Billy

Billy Burt Thank you kindly Billy! This is one of those situations where I used what I have to get it done. The lathe makes not that bad of a jointer lol You're right about the three feet and keeping level. I am concerned about it possibly trying to warp over time because it was from a tree that didn't grow all that straight at all. Luckily it's for my fiancé so I can always level the feet off again. I wanted to use a piece of crotch wood and use three feet but I didn't have the right material. I went with 4 in case Celine pushes on a corner and has it tip or something. Billy thanks again for the feedback and advise, and I wanted you to know I made a few more oil diffusers and I made the finial much slimmer and it looks WAY better! And that rock Maple is so strong it was pointless to make it any thicker. So thanks again for that as well! Happy and safe turning to you sir, Kyler

Sure are right, would have been a lot easier with a bandsaw or table saw! And you could have gotten two out of it. Love the Applewood! My old apple tree gave me a lot of it to play with.

Terry Yes quite a bit of this piece of Apple turned into shavings on the floor! My little bandsaw would have struggled with a rip that size, so I just used my lathe as a jointer lol Apple is really nice wood. Even and closed grain, takes a finish well, and usually has some beautiful figure. Safe and happy turning to you, Kyler

You work with what you've got and like you said, you're a woodturner! You did a great job with the tools at hand and as always, you have terrific tool control. Nice work, Kyler, keep'em coming! Oh, couple questions: What brand bowl gouge is your 40/40 and what did you use to sign your work? I'm going to be looking for a gouge soon, I think. I'm getting tired of sharpening every five minutes with my Benjamin's (Best?)

madronawoodworks Thank you Phil! Btw your paper birch bowl video is making me consider using a recess and leaving it behind. It takes a bit of time to remove all these darn tenons lol The bowl with the 40/40 grind is made by Thompson tools, and it's the Jimmy Clews special. I had a whole set of Benny's Best made with 100% pure high speed chinesium, and I still have a bunch. Not bad for the price but you're right about sharpening often. My Jimmy Clews by Thompson has become one of my favourite tools. It's more of a v-shape flute. And if you have time, check out a video on KZitem called "how gouges cut" which was a demonstration by Stuart Batty. It's the best vid I've seen on the subject and I think every woodturner should have a watch sometime. What I use to sign my work is a "multi-function heat pen set" I got from lee valley. I took one of the tips that the set came with and rounded it over on the Grinder to get it to be similar to a ball point pen shape. This helps it move over the wood smoothly and not get hung up in uneven or porous woods. Just be sure it's designed to actually burn wood, some units look the same but are for soldering and they barely do that well even! Thanks again for stopping by Phil, and happy turning to you! Kyler

David Shaper Yes I do have two lathes. The first lathe I bought is a rikon 70-100 which has 1/2 horsepower, 12" swing, 16" between centers. Very good starter lathe. Then I realized I wanted to do bigger work, and that I would be turning for life. That's when I decided on my Oneway 1640, which has 2hp with a variable speed inverter drive, 16" swing, and 40" between centers. It's my pride and joy lol I've never had a disappointment with it. Extremely well designed, and overbuilt. Kyler
