A channel predominantly about wood working with the focus on wood turning, from tops to bottoms. This channel will sometimes illustrate some wood burning, zentangle, and different embellishment techniques. From time to time there may be videos unrelated to wood working. Basically, if I find it interesting there's a good chance I'll make a video of it.
Self storing D-way bead tool handle
This is a tool handle that fits D-way small bead tools. The cutting edge stores in the handle to protect it from damage when not in use. This video is based on an earlier video called "my collet handle".

A little gift or knick knack box using threads from a prescription bottle. The original thought for this came from a post on "The Patriot Woodworker", from an online friend of mine. There are also some influences from Liam O'neill's "crooked grain box".

Thank you!!
👍👍♥️
It was very interesting and I learnt a lot thank you. It's not what your shop looks like we were hear to learn how you make your Ornaments.
I'm glad you liked the video and I thank you for taking a moment to let me know. As an aside, my shop is much worse now. LOL
Beautiful piece of art...and made in reverence to wood...just lovely. Do you sell these? I would buy one.
Thank you very much. In fact I do sell them but don't have any ready to go just now and it will be a few weeks before I do. If you want one I can connect you with a local gift shop who has some and is willing to ship. The shop owner has a very minimal mark up on them
Great video/idea. I've been turning honey dippers for a while now, and this gives me a new twist on them. THANKS
What a great idea Steve going to try this myself ,new to turning so this will beca good project. Many thanks for a well explained video greatly appreciated
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked the video and I really appreciate that you took a moment to let me know.
Nice!! Your video was really instructive.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video and I really appreciate that you took the time to comment!
Well it's 8 years later. Do you still use this and like it?
I no longer have it but that's not because I didn't like and use it. At that time I was harvesting logs for large wood turned pieces. My turning has evolved and I turn mostly smaller pieces now.
Newbi, turned my 2nd egg, carbin tools..little pointed
Great idea, thanks for sharing
I'm glad you liked it and I appreciate that you took a moment to let me know!!
Easy to understand, I will watch more of these. Birdy
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment!!
you actually show how to set it all up , great info
Glad you liked the video and thanks for letting me know!!
You're right not many videos out there for a bedan. Thanks for this one. Older video I know but hopefully you see my post. I was wondering about on the second egg bottom you cut from right to left. Then on the beginning of the third egg you are left to right cut. One the first egg I believe you made an interesting cut where you were making room around 4:57. What determines which type of cut you use?
I'm not sure how to answer. I guess I just do what feels right at the time. As for the direction of cut, I think it's important to be able to switch hands or at least directions if necessary.
Can a wooden dipper be left in the honey jar without damaging it?
We have left them in a jar literally for years with no issues. With that, I will say I always use hard maple for the dipper stem and do NOT put any finish on it.
That's pretty slick!
Thank you Dan!
I just came across your video and think I’d like to try this. Can you please provide dimensions and angles for the plywood and the walnut. Did you use 3/4 or 1/2 plywood. Thank you
What was the width of the wedge cuts?

Nice video! My knees are so bad I keep an aluminum 3’ step ladder in the back of my truck if I have to get up in the bed. Lol
Cool beans Steve. Great idea.
Thank you Dan, appreciate it.
Love this idea and have made three. Let's just say that each one is a practice for the next. That is, plenty of mistakes. To remove the lid, I simply screw on the jar and pull it out. I've found in the past that mayo jar lids work quite well when doing homemade sauces etc., colour coded, so have been using those. One less thing to recycle and they work. I've learned MUCH from this one video. Thank you so much for posting.
Brent. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I really appreciate that you took the time to let me know. I've lost track of how many of those I've made since I posted that video.
Great job, neat idea combining dipper and lids. Will definitely try this. Thanks for the video. Potential filming tip. Maybe you could try to get your camera at a higher angle to allow viewers to see more of your tool maneuvering.
Hi Chip, thanks for taking the time watch and especially for taking the time to comment. I would like to address your comment about the camera angle. I decided early on my channel would be more about ideas for things to turn and not so much to teach or illustrate technique. The reasoning behind that is that I feel there are others much better equipped and much more qualified to teach technique. I would recommend any video by Glenn Lucas or Cindy Drozda. Both are world class turners, both have great studios for video, and both are excellent teachers.
@@stevekrumanaker4582 Thanks Steve appreciate the recommendation. Liked your video.
Great project. How much do these generally sell for at craft fairs?
Thanks Jim, for watching and for commenting. I don't do craft shows. I do have an arrangement with a local honey farm/gift shop. I don't get a lot for one but they always buy at least 25 at a time.
Really nice. Made my 1st with the threaded inserts. And yes, they are a booger to do. But I got lucky and got them close enough to get the stick pretty straight by more tightening. Good series. Thanks for the good tips
Thank you very much for watching and thank you for taking the time to comment!
Nice job Steve, been turning these for the old folk so it makes it easier to get the lid off the jar.
Thanks for letting me know you liked the video.
Thank you!
You are very welcome, and Thank You!
Great work Steve , need to get me one of those tools, very talented you are! Thanks
Thank you Jim, I really appreciate that you took the time to comment. FWIW, I plan on bringing this handle for show and tell in Feb.
Nicely done. Very professional. I wish you would show this in a Wednesday night meeting of World Wide Woodturners. I believe it would be well received.
I am so flattered by this comment and I appreciate that you watched and took the time to let me know you liked it. I will have to check that group out as I'm not familiar with it.
Thanks, Steve, for the how-to video!
You are very welcome Lew, thanks for the comment.
Great project. I just started making honey sticks and now, thanks to you, I have something new to try. ❤
Thank you very much, for watching and for taking a moment to leave a comment!

@@stevekrumanaker4582 Excellent, thanks Steve 👌👍
What is the name of the mechanism the holds the router?
Thanks for watching and commenting. That is called an overarm router or pin router. It was sold by shopsmith. Shopsmith no longer sells them but they can generally be found on Ebay. FWIW, I have also used this jig with a table mounted router.
@@stevekrumanaker4582 ok so the router bit comes up from the bottom. that is neat.
cool jig, Nice work
Mike, Thanks for watching and thank you for the nice comment.
Thanks! Very much enjoyed.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for taking a moment to let me know!
Nice build, pls check the broken cable!
Thanks for watching and commenting! Not sure what you mean though. There is only one cable and if it's broken the jig won't work at all.
@@stevekrumanaker4582 the milling machine cable.
@@kegelschneckenmett2026 OK, thanks
Steve ... Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for one of the old Craftsman Router Crafters with no luck finding one ... may just have to build my own!
Gerald, thanks for watching and commenting. If you do build something I'd love to see it.
Thanks, Steve!
Thanks for watching Lew, and thanks for commenting.
New video yay
Thank you JP glad you liked it.
I’ve made a few ornaments in the past and I will try this. Enjoyed your video and my shop is messier than yours. Hope mine turn out half as good as yours.
Excelente trabajo !!!. Muchisimas gracias por compartir.
Thank you very much!
I really wanted those youturn the ornament not sand it or watch you drill with a pin vise. I was disappointed.
I'm sorry but I have no idea what you are trying to say, but if want to see the uncut version, here it is ua-cam.com/video/ZyhF_LldkI0/v-deo.html
Steve, I assume you need a 3-jaw chuck for these. A 4 -jaw won't work, will it?
John, First, thanks for watching and commenting. I use a four jaw chuck when doing these. I don't own a three jaw chuck. I've found the easiest way to get them "centered" is to clamp one end in the chuck with moderate pressure. I run the lathe at a low speed and put my bowl gouge between the steady rest and the blank. Using the steady rest like a fulcrum I apply pressure to the blank until it's spinning true and then finish tightening the chuck. I don't even use a tenon.
@@stevekrumanaker4582 Then I'd better get busy makin' my steady rest and buying my chuck. Any chuck recommendations? Want something with Cole jaws, worm screw included. Suggestions welcome, as I don't have one.?
I all spur center drive and faceplate, right now.
John, you won't need a steady rest for these as they are only a few inches long. As for chucks, I've used supernova2 chucks for years but have recently begun transitioning to the Easy Wood Tools Easy chuck. It is a far superior piece of equipment. It appears expensive at first look but the versatility of it makes it a great value. I highly recommend it. As an added bonus, it is 100% made in America.
I liked you video. Thanks. It gives me hope.
Thanks for the nice comment Pat, I remember feeling the exact same way before.
Fantastic finish, awesome work 👍
Thank you sir. I appreciate that you took the time to comment!
Good thinking Steve. I thought to assemble them with a wire pin but didn't think far enough ahead to put the wire all the way through the body for mounting. I like that.
Thanks Dan, glad the video helped. Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
What chuck and driver do you have?
My chucks are supernova2s and the spur drive is a generic one from amazon. www.amazon.com/Taytools-468372-Diameter-Multitooth-Spring-Loaded/dp/B07FZBPRBX/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=spur+drive&qid=1636397467&sr=8-13
Good job Steve Thanks 😊
Thank you sir!
Beautiful!
Thank you!!
I am an amateur wood turner and a beekeeper friend asked to make some honey vases for his store. I made a conventional one with the additional honey stick and then I thought that it would be nice to incorporate it on the lid. So, I googled it and I was so disapointed to see that I am at least 5 yrs late. I thought of that just before go to bed and I woke up at roughly 4 am with this on my mind. I even thought of a name for "my idea". Thanks for the video though. Great piece of work and of course great idea... I will try to make it exclusively of wood, both the vase and the lid-honey-stick...
LOL, can't tell you how much I enjoyed your story and that very thing has happened to me as well. I made my dipper lid to fit a pint mason jar because a local bee keeper sells her honey in mason jars. It was a natural fit. Thanks for watching and thanks for your nice comments.
@@stevekrumanaker4582 I am glad you liked it... keep working nice
great job
Thank you!!
