Thank you

This is not in tune!!! Beautiful yes, good job yes, but is not tuned!!! I’m musician, the xylophone is not in tune, you play real E when you suppose to be playing C. (That could be ok, because you create a xylophone en E) but then when you play the low notes (E G G E D G E in your suppose “C”) it’s out of tune. The xylophone it self is not tuned, in the low register sound soo weird

Very good

I just made a unicorn wand using a tapered barley twist... allllll by hand. I like the idea of using a saw to put the twist into the wood first. 😊 I may need to do that

For viewers, if you suspend the tone bars using rubber grommets then you’ll get a long sustained note instead of the staccato tone.

Thanks! I truly appreciate your earnest to get back to me, and that we could establish a dialog. You are obviously well experienced in this field. I've always appreciated individuals with the hands on experience, and knowledge. Wonderful.

P.S. Where do you suggest I look for the best air-dried White Oak? All that Home Dep carries is KD. I sure don't want that!

Thanks so much for your response. I tried yesterday, a water soak solution with Fabric Softener. The strips are 20" long 3" wide, and 1/8" thick. I used 2 strips of Hickory on the inside of the bend, and 1 strip of White Oak on the outside of the bend. Everything bent perfectly into place. However, as this is my first time, I'm sure I made mistakes prepping. For one thing when I removed the 3 strips from my jig this morning there was still moisture on the inside of the Strips. 2. I used YELLOW Glue! another mistake. These 3 strips are now on the jig with the Yellow glue. I'll check it out tomorrow. 3. There was still some visible moisture seen on the surface of the strips when I applied the Yellow Glue. I wasn't happy with this first try! Now that I have your valued advice and suggestions. I'll start again, and this time I'll cut 3 stirps using all White Oak. I cannot find any green wood in any type. I like the White oak however. What do you think about my use of the cold water solution? I have a steam box made, and it heats up to 212 Degrees, and I use 2-40 minute cycles. I think I will prefer to use the strips of 1/8" thickness rather than trying to bend a solid piece of 3/8" thick White Oak. The minimum with width for these stirrups is 3". I do use a wench that has a 3" wide belt, and its mounted to the table top just behind the jig. It does a wonderful job of pulling the wood around the jig. In fact coming out of the cold water solution I could bend it around by hand. However, I use the wench to hold the wood in place against the jig, then place dowel metal rods against the outside of the wood. This first try, is only a practice to see what I need to do, as I have no one with me to assist. Trial and error. Please, any advice you may wish to assist me with is greatly appreciated. As I said I am a disabled veteran, and this is a confidence builder. I hope I/ve explained all this in a reasonable manner.

I really watching your methods. I am wanting to build my own saddle stirrups. I have a center jig made and have the dowel pins that fit into holes around the jig. However, I've tried using white and red oak by steaming, and water soaking. Each time I begin the bend from the top of the jig, the wood gives out around the first bend at the foot, or bottom of the stirrup. I happen to be using KD (kiln dried) wood. I am even cutting these into 1/8" stirps. However, the always give out? Am I making a mistake using KD wood? If so, where would I get wood that is not KD? I am a disabled veteran, so I am doing this as a confidence builder. Are you able to offer any suggestions. I steamed these strips (1/8") for 40 minutes plus at times over 212 degrees. I would much rather be able to do this COLD! Shape them using the yellow wood glue. The width of these strips are 3".

This is a beautiful design! But you could step it up even high by carving notches just before the ends of the spirals at the top and weave jute or use tree roots around it and incorporate bead work too!

Ok 😮that’s really really impressive

Wooden Spikeball net here I come!

Thanks for first demonstrating the sound. After hearing that, I'm out

I want to try steam bending to make a Lyre, is there any issue when steam bending circular cut wood? As opposed to rectangular?

Very cool. Giving me some ideas

That is cool, love the video, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the video. Very informative and well produced. You mentioned the use of bendy ply, and I know it works well for some applications. However, in Australia where I live, the sheets only come in 2440 x 1220mm and is often way too large for some projects. Thanks for showing the three methods.

Thanks to all family members ❣️❣️❣️❣️

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills 🌟🏅

Cool project and interesting process. Full View and Like 👍

I have made several sets of barley twist candle sticks and know it is a labor of love. Not exactly easy but so satisfying in the end. I like your chisel work following the saw cuts. Thanks for showing us how its done.

Congrats! This is a very well filmed/edited video. I have no clue what is a barley twist, now I have an idea. Very simple instructions! Really enjoyed!

Not a single word of explation about the steaming. How could u not realize that you blatantly missed the most important part?

а фрезером эту операцию можно сделать?

Nice

The best

I like that clamp technique. Thanks

Awesome idea, and love the setup of your shop! What’s the name of your sliding crosscut sled?

Great job.Don't always have to go the expensive route

very nice do you sell these at craft fair

Thats cool!

Jesse that's ridiculous get that in the house, that's a piece of furniture.

Beautiful piece of wood 😃😃

Funny I've been making these for some time. Thought I was the only one. Mine are a little differnt. Nice work.

That looks great! Thanks for the tips, I’m going to have to try that myself.

Does that apply to real wood

Great video. Love the outcome! 🤌

Freshly cut loose pieces between the fence and the blade (whithout clearance space) are a great way to get hurt. Either use a spacer or push the fence away and measure some other way, man. Speaking from experience. Cheers!

Sorry for this newbie question: why do you lay the tool flat on top of the work piece at 1:19?

❤❤❤❤

How did you calculate the exact leinght for the correct tuning of the sticks?

Great video buddy, and where the hell did you get that gouge. 😮

How much would it cost to make 3 hoops 20 inches?

Make us a nice Windsor chair..

Do you have a template available for the legs

That’s an easy subscribe

Great if you have a 100+++ in tools

What kind of finish did you use for the bars? Thank you😁

The shop is looking good!

I fucked up a meserment in my 8th grade woods shop, I learn more then I needed to. But it workee
