What a great video, thank you for sharing your ideas and techniques. Not only do they look fun to make but seem as though they would help with basic tool use for beginners like me.
You’re welcome! It never occurred to me to regard scrap projects as beginner friendly, but you’re quite correct. The wood is inexpensive or free and the time invested is low. Which allows you to get a lot of practice relative to the time and materials invested. I’m glad you liked the video and thanks for commenting.
That is a Carbide-Tipped Dowel, Plug & Tenon Cutter from Lee Valley Tools. They come in a wide range of sizes (up to 3”) and as you noticed, they make some operations really easy. 😀 Thanks for watching and commenting.
That’s awesome dude. I have been interested in turning for some time. I make a lot of cutting boards right as most intermediate woodworkers likely do. Do you think that Turing is more conducive to using small stock? I do end up with quite a bit of 8-12 inch pieces that I can’t seem to make fit in most projects.
Yes, woodturning is far more conducive to using small pieces of wood. This video was my fourth in a series of using scraps and small pieces of wood and I have an often updated playlist dedicated to projects that are scrap friendly. That playlist can be found here: m.ua-cam.com/video/HzY2AGnWHYY/v-deo.html This playlist can also be found under ‘playlists’ from the Croaky Oak UA-cam channel home page. As a previous commenter on this video has pointed out, scrap projects are also often beginner friendly. Many of them can also be made on a mini lathe. Have fun if you decide to get started woodturning! Just hang with it long enough to get past the initial learning phase. Thanks for commenting.
They are all great toys well done

Having a scrap stash is something almost all woodworkers have in common. 😀😀👍

Looks great! What kind of paste did you put onto the spinning top? It looked almost like a gel.
Although I can’t recall the exact name of the product, it is some sort of General Finishes gel poly.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Whoa!!! What is that bit called that you used at 9.36 to create the dowel?!?
