Watch The Video: I know there are a lot of turners in this group that sell at craft shows. I think this is a great low price item to stir interest in your higher priced pieces. I was surprised just how easy it is to make these so I made a video of the process. -- Living In The Woods Of Beautiful Bonney Lake, Washington |

I tried Stuarts approach as best I could. The camera angle left a little to be desired, for me. Also, it appeared he was almost on top of the workpiece. I just couldn’t master it. For me, leading with the long point is super easy and works! I think to get longer petals it’s just a matter of the first cut being longer, that is, push the skew towards the headstock further. That also leads to a domed flower, which may be desirable. I didn’t really try different speeds and how much material you are taking pretty much dictates how fast you can push the skew. It’s a matter of feel, really, but learning it comes quickly and I did not perceive any danger, at all, in making these flowers. Phil -- Living In The Woods Of Beautiful Bonney Lake, Washington |
