Dave Hawley - Processes and Jigs
Dave Hawley demonstrates Processes and Jigs to the Rocky Mountain Woodturners on June 6, 2024.
Dave’s demo will include processes and jigs (many handmade) that Dave has used to make it easier to achieve his turning goals during the last 20+ years - examples are (a) a jig that uses a router, a drill, and a grinder on the lathe in conjunction with indexing, and (b) preparation and use of natural turquoise stone material (can be used for other types of inlays). The demo will to some degree be a “show and tell,” and questions will be encouraged throughout, hopefully sparking interest in trying out this new information, with the goal of having fun at the lathe.

    I don’t see any close ups of the finished parts that are shown to the in house audience, or of the completed gnomes. You can’t hear any of the questions the audience is asking, so some of the answers are vague.

    My cozen can sharpen a sward to the point you can not see the blade's edge. My short sward he sharpened for me can cut tissue with no support to the tissue. He uses a bench mounted belt sander. As to the mouse trap, peanut butter works better than chees. They will want the protean more. My dad always said, "The most dangerous thing is a dull blade". He was talking about a knife but it goes for chisels, saws and axes

    @paultiefel515 6 місяців тому

    By far the most thorough and thoughtful Peppermill presentation that I have seen. One of the few videos that I have watched multiple times. How do you deal with finishing the exposed end grain on the top, especially with a flat top and/or grain like Curly Maple? Also, do you use Danish Oil and then Wipe On Poly?

    • @patscott6148
      @patscott6148 6 місяців тому

      Thank you very much! End grain on the top isn't really that much of a problem for me. I'll power sand up to 1000 grit (use a light touch) and then use the 1000 grit to hand sand with the grain. Yes, one or two coats of Danish Oil and then 1 or 2 coats of WOP on top of the Danish Oil if you want. Or I'll just use 4-5 coats of Danish Oil until I get the sheen I want. Or you could just use WOP by itself, but I like using Danish Oil to start as I think the oil pops the figure a bit better than straight poly.

  • @t.sowers7583
    @t.sowers7583 6 місяців тому

    I'm looking for something other than the rubber expanding jam chucks. What are the long nose jaws attached to the chuck you refer to at 1:11? I can't tell from the video, it looks like they are wood? And would they work for a 1-1/16 hole?

    • @patscott6148
      @patscott6148 6 місяців тому

      Those are Vicmarc Extended Dovetail jaws (Mfg Part# V00651) with masking tape wrapped around them. The masking tape gives a little bit of cushion and keeps the jaws from making a black mark in the 1-5/8" hole (that I've sanded up to 1000 grit!). The extended dovetail jaws work great for expanding into the 1-5/8" hole, but are too big for the 1-1/16" hole. For that I use the Vicmarc 25mm Pin Jaws (Mfg Part# V00650).

  • @tnyberg67

    Thanks for sharing your process. I've found on my little mini lathe with very limited space I ended up going with the Forstner bit then cleaning up with a carbide round tip tool afterward to try and take a litte of the flat out of the bottom. I didn't have the room to get at the end of the barrel to get the tool in there properly to dig it out with chisels. Then finished with a linseed oil mix inside and out, if they are worried about it we can talk for hours about what they are likely to put into this little drinking vessel in the first place. (-: Really enjoyed watching back in River Falls WI.

  • @stevem268
    @stevem268 7 місяців тому

    thanks for all of the detailed work that is missing from other videos. one extra step that i will do sometimes, especially with a very highly figured wood, is to not turn the spigot at all. in it's place i will drill the bottom of the cap at 1 1/8 and insert a matching scrap "dowel" and turn it to fit into the 1 1/16" hole in the body.

    • @patscott6148
      @patscott6148 7 місяців тому

      Thanks for your comment. Yes I do the same thing on figured wood if I don't want to lose grain match, or when I want to make a certain size mill (say 8") and my piece of wood is only 8".

    Could you put super glue in the crack and be safe

    • @tnyberg67
      @tnyberg67 7 місяців тому

      There is a finishing technique that uses CA glue, Since that glue was once long ago developed for field repairs on small cuts I would guess like all other finishes that once dry it is food safe (you'd have to of course confirm that). Check out the finishing with CA glue - maybe Google search that related to pen turning. Good luck...

  • @johnpiper8709
    @johnpiper8709 7 місяців тому

    Ďear Tom, I have did a NAW beginners course earlier in the year of 2023 under the instruction of chris Hooton in New Zealand where I live. It was demonstrated with an ordinary scraper meaning it was,nt negative rake.i have since taught myself to use a negative rake scraper, but I also use builders chalk. The idea of the chalk is that you fub the chalk on 1st on the area that you wish to scrape, as you run the negative scraper over the area it removes the chalk and the high spots, the chalk that is left behind are the low spots so the idea is you keep running the negative scraper over the chalk until the chalk h Is removed,when the chalk is all removed you have also removes all the high spots and end up with a perfect finish. I have developed such a light touch and cut all the wood I scrape off with the chalk is fine dust and end up with a beautiful finish bowl or platter. Since have watched your video on you tube I have made various size scrapers for all the different shapes, throughly enjoyed your video and learnt so much more in getting a wonderful finish. Incidently my personal tutor does not use a scraper negative or a regular scraper very often, but is impressed with my finish. I won the last two years local guide companion on my finished bowls. But the idea of the chalk is to show up the low spots and it also removes the end grain if you scrape very very lightly. Cheers and thanks John Piper. Wellington, New Zealand.
