- Even though this project is only 6 inches tall it still has its challenges. The thunderbird feature ring is a classic for this style turning. It was a lot of fun to make. I hope you enjoy the video. Comments and questions are always welcome.

Very nice water jug
Thanks Billy. Not sure it will hold water. :-) Take care, Steve
Your videos are great to learn from, you explain what needs to be covered. Thanks Steve
Thank you for the comment and for watching my video. I'm glad you found it helpful. Take care, Steve
Brilliant demonstration on the feature ring, I’ve watched this clip three or four times, perhaps enough for me to attempt a vase of similar design, maybe a little larger. Thanks Steve, well done.
Thanks Ed. Give the feature ring a shot. I’m sure it will come out great. Take care, Steve
I love this design and the video was great too. I especially liked the jazz. Thank you.
Robert - Thanks for watching my video and for the comment. Take care, Steve
This is probably the fourth or fifth time I've watch this video and I think I'm ready to attempt this project. I can't tell you how much I've learn from you and Gord Rock, As a fledgling segmented woodturner you two are my You Tube mentors. Thank you.
Another winner Steve. Once again you have shown me how the experts do it.
Thanks Larry! I appreciate your comment very much. Take care, Steve
A very nice vase,I like the birds. THANKS
Thank you very much. It was a fun project. Take care, Steve
Thanks for sharing Steve. Segmented work is something I think I'll enjoy and your videos provide a good knowledge base. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Gord
Thank you for your detailed answers! Good luck and many beautiful works! Sincerely, Alexander
Great looking vase...thanks for the insight on making the thunderbird!
Carol - I'm glad you enjoyed my video. Thanks for watching! Take care, Steve
What a great video. One of the best I've watched on explaining things. Great work!!!!!!!
Thanks Kenny. It was a fun project. Take care, Steve
That feature ring was clever, I had thought of 20 ways of doing something like that, too clever for my own good !!! KISS usually works best. Thanks Steve, Stewart, south west Australia.
Stewart - Thanks for watching my video and for the comment. I agree, KISS is the way to go!
Take care, Steve
it's a pleasure to see you working and specially hear your explanation it's very clear. thank you
Thank you very much Alfredo. I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Great vase. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Bernard. I appreciate you watching. Take care, Steve
Super cool love the choices of woods and great pattern too. Your craftsmanship is top notch 👌
Thank you very much. Take care, Steve
Steve it is a very beautiful vase I love the different colors of wood you used. I also love the wonderful soft music you play in the background, that is how it must be done. It should not be overwhelming.
Thank you very much Kobie! I'm glad that you enjoyed my video. Take care, Steve
Just found your channel. I just purchased a lathe and I'm excited to learn how to turn. I know I have a long way to go... I'm native American, your work caught my attention... Thanks for sharing... I have a channel but it's about drone flying, family trips and hiking...
Thank you very much Allen. I got my lathe in 2008 and learned to turn by watching UA-cam videos and a lot of practice. There are a lot of good turners on UA-cam and you can learn something from all of them. Not every project will turn out as you hoped but you'll get better as time goes by. I like the forms and decorative features on native American pottery and usually turn to a Google search on the subject when I'm planning a new project. Good luck and have fun with your turning! Take care, Steve
Well done video, thank you for taking the time to share. Audio was particularly well done!
Dale - Thanks for watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
After watching your woodturning techniques I have adopted some. I use my flat chuck to finish my rings on both sides then I move the flat chuck to the tailstock to glue them together.
Tom - I'm glad that you picked up a tip or two from my video. Keep turning! Take care, Steve
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing how you did the feature ring.
You're very welcome. Hope you give the Thunderbird feature ring a try. Take care, Steve
Excellent video Steve. Thanks
Thank you very much Keith! I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Nicely done Steve
Thank you very much Rami. I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Thanks for the lesson...that was great!
Glad you enjoyed the video. I appreciate the comments. Thanks! Take care, Steve
I've watched quite a lot of these videos and this was one of the most informative. It is also the most enjoyable. Thank you
You are very welcome Ernie. It was a fun project.
Take care, Steve
Thanks for another great video, I always learn. Also, thanks for the Curt Theobald info, Chuck
Chuck - Thanks for watching my videos. Hopefully Curt will get the large cone centers back in stock soon. It's a very handy item to have around. Take care, Steve
I use a sanding disc mounted to the tail stock to sand my rings on one side,then I glue them to the bowl and then sand the other side
That sounds like a good solution Bill. There's always more than one way to get the job done. Take care, Steve
Great Project and presentation, as usual.
Thank you very much Barry. Take care, Steve
Superb project! Inspirational. Thanks for sharing. Marc
Thank you very much Marc. It was a fun project that, in the end, exceeded my expectations. Take care, Steve
Very helpful Steve - thanks
Thanks Joe! Take care, Steve
Very nice Steve. Really liked the demo on the feature ring.
Thank you very much Frank. I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video! Take care, Steve
Thank you for your reply Steve. I have been watching and learning to make the feature rings. I have the seg easy setup but have not mastered the proper way to center the feature in the segment. Your video has been a big help. Thank you. Sincerely; Frank
I'm happy you got a few tips out of my video. Centering the feature in the segment can be a little tricky. I'm sure you'll get it worked out. Happy Holidays to you! Steve
And a merry Christmas to you and yours also. Frank
Such a great video, Steve, you know how much I appreciate your helpful and awesome videos. I have used this one to help me make a thunderbird ring that came out great. I also have never "split rings" so here goes this afternoon based on this one. Thanks again for your excellent tutorials, amigo!
Daniel - Thank you for your comments. I'm glad the video helped you out with your project. I enjoy making videos and am always pleased when viewers find my videos worth watching! I thank you again! Good luck with your turning! Take care, Steve
Hi again Steve. Many thanks for your prompt reply sourcing the tailstock number two morse taper with threaded spindle. I promptly ordered one, even though the thread did not match my spindle and accessories. Promised for delivery from the US by October 3, it arrived today, September 20 ,only one week from order, and is in my local agricultural engineer's workshop being fitted with the correct thread.... from a spare fitting I made up for some purpose many years ago. Your help much appreciated.
My local club has an occasional competition which this time is a short length of Kahikatia, a local White Pine supplied by the club. I am part way through a lovely nearly all white segmented bowl with one ring having six of your birds in redwood floating at ring 4 level.
I'm glad that worked out for you Joe. I'm sure you'll find that tailstock piece a big help. You club piece sounds very nice. If you have an chance please take a photo and send to me at Slindsley51@gmail.com. I would enjoy seeing it. Thanks and take care, Steve
You're an awesome inspiration to a novice wood turner. I think I must try one of these vessels.
Thanks very much Michael! All it takes is practice....believe me I've had more than my share of projects that didn't make it to video. Small projects are a great way to practice and hone your skills. They don't use much wood and don't take a lot of time. Keep at it and I'm sure that you'll be successful! Thanks for watching and for the comment. Take care, Steve
Beautiful video, Steve.
The vase looks great.
Thank you very much Günter! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Take care, Steve
Beautiful bowl Steve, always enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing how you did the feature ring, 👍
Take care,

Thank you Harry. Glad you enjoyed the video! Take care, Steve
I love your work Steve, artistic and precise. All the best, Jim
Thank you very much Jim! Take care, Steve
nice work steve!
Thank you very much Beau! Take care, Steve
LOL....I was nervous towards the end here!!!! I caught myself holding my breath. LOL you da man Steve.
Thanks WIlliam. That part of the project always makes me nervous too! It all worked out fine on this piece. I've had others that decided to bounce around the shop! Thanks for watching! Take care, Steve
super Steve tes vidéo son vraiment très intéressant et donne des idées a reproduire merci .
Thank you very much Jimmi. I'm pleased that you enjoyed the video. Take care, Steve
Always enjoy your videos.
Thanks Dale. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video! Take care, Steve
I just found your videos and I must say this is the first video that I’ve watched and I found it to be inspiring.That vase is beautiful and I must say it looks like a replica of a pottery vase.Great video.
Thank you very much Mike. I hope you take time and watch some of my other videos. Take care, Steve
Love your videos,you always have super nice projects.
Thank you for the comment. Take care, Steve
I enjoy watching y'all wood turn ,I can no longer work in my shop due to an illmness
Sorry to hear that Billy. I hope that you get well soon. Take care, Steve
beautiful work! You make it look so easy
Thank you very much!
Very nice, Steve. I have just started turning some solid vases and learning how to use the tools. I'm going to make a wedge sled and try some segmented turnings. Like how simple the Thunderbird was to make, I couldn't figure it out how you were going to make until you turned the slices up on their edge. Have a good day.
Thanks Bill. Glad you picked up a few tips in the video. Segmented turning is a lot of fun and the wedgie sled makes cutting segments nearly foolproof. As you can see in the video I pretty much use mine for almost every cut. Keep at it and you'll be turning out segment pieces before you know it. :-) Take care, Steve
Another great Video! Thanks for doing it......Regards, Newt
Thank you very much Newt! I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Steve, you had me there a few times. You like to live on the wild side. Wasn't even me turning the vase and I felt my heart race. You made the feature ring look easy. I designed a feature ring for my next segmented turning, the problem is I think I got a little a head of myself. Now I'm trying to figure out how to make it. Best regards, Richard
Thanks Richard. Figuring out how to make the feature ring is part of the challenge...but also what makes it fun! Good luck. I'm sure you'll get it figured out. Take care, Steve
Hi Steve , first beautiful work you make, im buisy now for one year and i have a lot of fun and learn a lot from all you guiys on youtube, i made a lot of things, but i dont know what i realy want, your work is amasing, but i need more expiriense, coz nobody say to me what i do wrong, and much happening like a cach, or a complete pease of work is flying throug my workplace, but slowly it comes, thanks to you guys on youtube, its always great to see you working.
Henk - Like you, I learned woodturning watching UA-cam videos. We all have our mistakes and problems. I have several bowls in my shop that I've never finished because I didn't like the way the came out. I've had plenty of catches and problems. I've put a link below to one of my videos about a bowl the decided to come off of the lathe. I'd suggest that you find a piece that you like and try to duplicated it. This could be a photo or image that you find on the internet, in a book or magazine. I do that very often with my pieces or as a minimum use them for inspiration. Lastly, practice, practice, practice and you'll be successful. Thank you for the comment and for watching my videos. Take care, Steve

thank you very much Steve.
very nice Steve, i haven't done any segmenting to talk of but this is an inspiring piece
take care
Rob
Rob - Thank you very much. It was a fun piece and made a great gift. Take care, Steve
steve nice turning.
Thank you very much Robert! Take care, Steve
I like the fence / zero clearance ramp for the pieces to clear the blade.
I have to give credit where credit is due when it comes to the zero clearance insert with the ramp. I got the idea from Jerry Bennett's website www.segeasy.com. Here's a link if you're interested. www.segeasy.com/zeroclearancestrip.pdf
I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Hi Steve, new subscriber here. I've done only a few segmented turnings, but I sure learned a lot watching your techniques. I thought your vase turned out great. Clean and precise.
First off Joe, thank you for subscribing to my channel! I'm glad you found my video helpful. I appreciate you watching and commenting on my video. Take care, Steve
Steve, another great job by you, really enjoyed the video. I have a couple of requests: would you consider doing a video describing your method of segmented turning? Specifically, how you go about turning each ring and then joining them? For example, your use of a plywood faceplate for each ring, truing and doing some turning before gluing to the next ring. I just stack them up and turn them, you have a unique method of approaching that, I think it would be really helpful to many of us. Finally, could you cover the floating bottom technique in more detail. I haven't done that yet and want to incorporate that into my segmented turnings. Thanks for your consideration.
Daniel - Thanks for watching and for the comment/requests. At the moment I'm involved in another project and won't be going back to the lathe in the near future, I will however, keep your requests in mind. I did a video series on making a segmented bowl back when I first started making videos. If you haven't check them out they might be helpful. You'll have to excuse the quality of the video. I was just getting started and the quality was lacking. As far as a floating bottom, there are a couple of articles on the below website that might be of help to you. They are in the advanced segmented turning section. One is by Jim Rogers and the other by Malcolm Tibbetts and they deal with managing the base and a floating base. Give them a look when you have a chance. Thanks again for watching and for the comments. Take care, Steve
www.woodturningonline.com/Turning/segmented_turning/index.html
Thanks for the leads on the requested info. I did watch that segmented video and got good info there for sure. I had watched it in the past but my perspective now was more focused on your methods relating to the plywood faceplates and turning each ring separately. And the other resources on the floating disks were excellent, so thank you once again, and great respect for your outstanding abilities.
Daniel - I'm glad you found the information useful. I'd enjoy making a video on the floating disk but if I don't finish the jewelry box and picture frame that have been requested I'll be sleeping in the shop until they are done. :-) Malcolm Tibbetts has a very good book on segmented turning. I refer to it quite often for inspiration and techniques. I put a link to it on Amazon below. Good luck with your turning projects. I appreciate you watching and commenting on my videos. Take care, Steve

Very crazy and nice one my friend i like it sir awesome :)
Thanks you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the project! Thanks for watching and take care. Steve
I put this video on my facebook my friend ok :)
No problem TJ. I thank you for sharing my video! Steve
Hi, Steve, Your work is an inspiration to me, and your teaching style makes the concepts easy to understand. Thank you. Using your video as a teaching tool, I'm currently making a vessel with the "Thunderbird" feature ring. I have a question about equipment. Your video shows what looks like multiple shiny stainless steel faceplates with matching threaded hubs. Are these, by chance, part of the Turners Select Modular Faceplate System with the threaded hubs offered by Craft Supplies that uses different diameter faceplates that screw onto the hub? Thanks, Steve.
Awesome work Steve. I promise I will do a segmented turning. What are you using in the tail stock to mount your chuck? Thx
Jeff
Thanks Jeff. I use a tailstock chuck adapter from Penn State to mount the chuck on the tailstock. I put a link below. It's a handy gadget to have in the shop. Take care, Steve.

Could you hold the vase on with the cone center and a steady rest before parting off?
Billy - I'm sure that would probably work. In woodturning there's usually more than one way to do most things. Take care, Steve
How did you finish the inside ? Pour the sealer in and roll around to coat internally?
I finished the inside with shellac before I glued the top and bottom together. Unfortunately that part didn't make into the video. Thanks for watching. Take care, Steve
beautiful work. i just subscribed. i have to admit that it looked really cool with the waste stock stiill on and shaped. around 17:30. jus a bit of my personal opinion :). cheers
Thanks Roderick. You're right about the shape with the waste block attached. I'll have to keep that in mind and maybe add a base to a future piece. Thanks for pointing that out! Take care, Steve
Steve, I've been turning segmented bowls for some time, and what to turn a project like this vase. About ten minutes into the video you show an adapter between the tailstock and the chuck holding the feature ring, you're hot gluing the ring to a piece mounted on the headstock faceplate. That adapter allows the tailstock chuck to rotate. Can you tell me where I can obtain that adapter? Thanks for the step-by-step instruction.
My apologies for the late reply. I got the live center with chuck adapter from Penn State Industries. I put the link below. It comes in very handy. Thanks for watching my video and for the comment. Take care, Steve

@@slindsley1951 Steve Many thanks for the info on the tailstock live center. One additional question; when you're gluing the purple heart wedges in the yellow heart to make the feature ring you add pieces of veneer, What species of wood is the veneer? Thanks again!
@@trunyan5080 I'm not sure what species of wood the veneer is. I buy packs of colored veneer at Woodcraft. I put a link below. Steve

Hello Steve
I am currently building the Thunderbird Feature ring. Turning out great. I cut 7 1/8 pieces leaving 3 spare. Turned them into a flow pot. A little extra surprise. I am wondering why you did not set the fence to 1/8. I cut the first birds using your stop block method. There was some variation on thicknesses.
Skip - I wanted the strips to fall away from the blade and not be between the blade and the fence. I could have made a push block to push the strips between the fence and the blade but I guess I was being lazy. :-) Either way would certainly work and you're correct that using the fence would give a more consistent strip. Thanks for the question and for watching my video. Take care, Steve
Your segmented skills and the pieces you produce are amazing. Have been following your videos for a while now, quite new to turning but you've got me hooked on wanting to do segmented turning, your designs and patience in all of the preparation you do is very inspiring. When cutting the thinner strips, do you sand the faces somehow to achieve smooth flat surfaces or use them straight off the saw? Also, (if you don't mind me asking all these questions!) how thick is the veneer you use for spacers? Thank you for your most enlightening and enjoyable presentations, kind regards, Tony(UK)
Tony - Thank you for your comments! Segmented turning is a lot of fun so give it a try! On the thinner strips, I use them as they come off of the saw. As for the veneer, I'm not sure of the thickness. I buy packs of dyed veneer at my local Woodcraft store. It's also available on Amazon - I put a link below. Thanks again for watching and commenting on my video. It's very much appreciated. Take care, Steve

Absolutely beautiful, and you have given me a far better explanation of how to make a segmented vase than any other video I've ever seen. I think I have a project for the summer now. :D
Quick question though. Do you sand the inside to perfection, or do you just clean it up since it won't really ever be seen?
Thank you very much for your comment. It's a nice little project so give it a try. As far as the inside goes, I don't go crazy sanding it. I smooth it out and that's about it usually to 120 grit. I do put on a couple coats of sanding sealer or shellac just to seal it up. Thanks again for watching. Take care, Steve
Really enjoy your videos learning a lot. in regards to your Southwestern Vase with Thunderbird Feature Ring
you state you finished the inside with a sealer do you apply the sealer as you finish each section like the lower half before you put it together it would be hard to apply the finish when completed thanks for the videos ken
Ken - Thanks for watching and commenting on my video. Yes, I typically finish the top and bottom half before I joint them together. Sometimes it's with shellac or with a poly, depends what I have on hand. Thanks again for watching. Take care, Steve
Stunning vase. What is meant by a negative rake scraper??
Thank you Maryke! I glad you liked my video. Here's a link to a video that explains a negative rake scraper. Take care, Steve ua-cam.com/video/gHMfBmAZRKk/v-deo.html
Maravilha!
Thank you very much Paulo!
Great informative video for me.
I am new to woodturning and was wondering what glue do you use to reseal the
Top and how do you take it apart after you temporarily glue it. Thank you once again well done
Ken - I don't glue the top and bottom halves together until the piece is finished turned on the inside and out. This piece was small enough that I just pressed the two halves together with the tail stock and turned the outside to shape. On larger pieces I use a few pieces of double stick tape between the two halves to help hold them together along with the tail stock. Not too much tape though as that can be difficult to get apart to finish turn the inside. After I have the inside and outside finish turned I glue the two halves together. As for glue, I generally use Titebond Ultimate. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching my video. Take care, Steve
Hey Steve, hope all is well, quick question: at about the 12:32 mark, you are driving a four jaw chuck with a live center. Is the live center threaded or are you just jambing the live center into the four jaw chuck? Hope this question makes sense. Thanks for your help, getting back to segmenting, and as usual I am relying on your awesome video for the thunderbird ring.
Daniel - I purchased that live center from Penn State Ind. but it's available at Woodcraft and others as well. The chuck screws on to the live center and spins freely. It's come in handy in my segmented projects. I put a link to the Penn State piece below. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Take care, Steve

Beautiful vase. Do you have a video on making the "wedgie sled"?
Mike - I have a video on how to use the sled but not not how I made it. I’m the comments to that video I put a link to Jerry Bennet’s Channel. There is a video ther on how to make a wedgie sled. I’ll try and past the link at the end of this comment. If it doesn’t work find my wedgie sled video and look in the comments. Take care, Steve

Thank you very much Steve. Much appreciated. Keep making your incredible projects.
What type cameras and software are you using?
Skip - I use my iPhone and edit with iMovie on my Mac. Take care, Steve
Steve, I like it. I'm going to try one. One question. Why the veneer strips? Would it look okay without them?
James - The veneer strips were just a personal preference. The thunderbird would look perfectly fine without it. Thanks for watching and commenting on my video. Good luck with your piece. Take care, Steve
Hello steve I really enjoy your video very well done.. I have never seen anyone do a celtic inspired vase. I am irish and a new turner could you show me how to make a celtic feature ring. thanks Ray
Raymond - That's a great idea. I have the lathe out again and will be doing some turning after the holidays are over. I'll see what I can come up with for a Celtic inspired vase. Thanks for watching and for the comment! Take care, Steve
Steve this is a truly beautiful bowl can you point me to where i can find the formula for the sizing of the segments for each ring
Thanks very much Tom. The formula is quite simple it's the diameter x pi (3.1416) divided by the number of segments in the ring. Diameter X pi gives you the circumference of the circle. So for a 5 inch diameter ring with 12 segments the calculation would be 5x3.1416=15.71 divided by 12 = a segment length of 1.31 or about 1 5/16 inch. I hope that helps. Take care, Steve

Hi Steve
Watched your great bird evolve several times and today finally roughed out two timbers.... make a start tomorrow. Is the tail stock fitting which allows the chuck and faceplate to revolve something of your own design or is it commercially available in the US of A?
If commercial could you please advise source. Delighted to make your acquaintance ... even at such a distance.

Will the vases hold water?
No they won't hold water. They just sit on the shelf and look nice. :-). Thanks for commenting and watching my video. Take care, Steve
If it don't hold soup...it's art! ;)
Exactly!
Steve: where are you located? I live in the Palm Springs, Ca area, and I collect mesquite from the area for my own purposes. If you aren't too far off, I may be able to help out.
Thanks for the offer Ken. I live in the Charlotte, NC area so that's about as far away as I can get from Palm Springs. I got my last supply from a dealer in Waco, TX for a reasonable cost. I'll look them up again in the fall when I start turning again. I really do appreciate the offer. Take care, Steve
