Harbor Fright's answer to Lie-Nielsen's legendary #3...like new...never used condition....probably because it is a PITA to adjust..It does actually feel pretty good in the hand while it is not working...Purchased when they first came on the market about ten years ago...I forgot the price but I'm guessing it was less than fifteen bucks. I think it could be made to work halfway decently if one took the time to properly fettle it...I'll keep it along with the set of HF chisels I have that are in the original packaging, costing the tidy sum of about six bucks...Strangely enough, I have heard they hold an edge quite well..Along with the #3, they shall remain unused and properly preserved for posterity.

I am a fairly new woodturner and I want to start learning how to turn hollow forms.  Looking for suggestions on which brand, type, etc, more experienced woodturners of hollow forms use and/or would recommend.  Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.  Thanks in advance...

Anyone know what the thread size for this rabbit bit might be? I know it's a long shot.. thanks in advance

I'm getting ready to CNC this Index Wheel design that I made for my 10" Midi Lathe.  It's 8.5" in diameter. 

I'm looking for feedback from those with more experience on the design and number of holes per ring.

Thanks

   

Started making these pens the other day.  This one is Gun Metal with Bocote.  Most popular is Pewter with Bocote, Redheart, Bloodwood or Cocobolo.

   

   

I lost my only brother two days after Thanksgiving last year. He had several health issues over the years including colon cancer twice and and about ten years ago contracted a rare muscle disease called Inclusion Body Myositis that eventually put him in a wheelchair. For most of his life (he was 73 when he passed) he was a big game hunter and used to spend a couple of months every year in Wyoming Elk hunting. He was my best friend and was the one who first introduced me to woodworking.

A couple of weeks before he passed he was hospitalized with abdominal pains. The doctors never determined the exact cause but they were pretty sure his colon cancer had returned. I think he knew this was the end and he told me he wanted me to make his Urn.

I don't care much for the standard short squatty Urn designs so I made it more in the shape of a large vase. I decided to do a staved vessel design and made the main body from Curly Maple with Ebony and Holly "splines" and used a Cherry Burl for the top section.

Here's a picture of the Curly Maple staves and the stock for the Ebony and Holly splines. The second set of staves are Red Terara I plan on using for a second vessel. 

     

Here are the splines glued up. I used three pieces of Ebony and two pieces of Holly for each spline.

   

I glued the staves up in two half-rings.

   

I then glued the two halves together and mounted on the lathe to turn the outside.

   
   

Next, I mounted it in my modified donut chuck to turn the inside. I need to get a better light!!!

   

Next, I added an Ebony ring to the top and turned a mortise to accept the top section.

   

Then I started working on the Cherry Burl for the top and discovered it had a big bark inclusion in the middle. I started to trash it and do something else but decided to fill it with black CA glue and continue turning it to see how it turned out.

   

It ended up looking pretty good so I finished it up and turned a tenon on it and glued it to the main body .
