This is a great series, you are a natural demonstrator. I found this very informative. one of the best on youtube
Thx Mike, this was a great demo! Now I want to make one of these for my new niece.
Go for it!
Just wanted to say thanks for the videos. I turned the rattle for my first grandson, who is
2 months old. Thanks for taking the time. You are a very good instructor!
Nice work! I am sure he will enjoy it.
Mike, as usual, your videos are very informative. I have recently bought a ring making tool, and I was at a bit of a loss on how to finish it off, get it round and so on. This was very helpful. I hqave been turning for 35 years or so, ( I am 84) but I can always learn something new!
Glad to help. Always good to be learning something new, isn't it?
Mike, I enjoy all your videos and thanks for making this one. We are expecting our first grandchild and turned one of these rattles today from 2" Maple. It looks great and it an improvement on my standard rattles that I have made for years. i had the homemade captive ring tools and they worked well. I also wrapped a 3/4" piece of 80 grit sanding material around the shaft and taped each edge with blue painters tape and the rings sanded well. You always seem to make things clear and easy to understand. Best, Bob Seigel
Thanks for that. My wife may not agree. 😉
Good project, Mike, I enjoyed the turn.
Mike, great outcome! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, sir. I'm pretty new to using a lathe (and very new at being an uncle) so appreciate this video a lot.
I've watched a few videos on turning captive rings now, yours answered the questions that, for me, the others didn't quite cover.
You have a nice way of teaching.
Thanks for your encouragement.
Mike about the Nova chuck jaws. I have the Nova 48111 and the G3. I always have problems doing the tenon and the wood coming off most of the time. I read the directions on both chucks and I was always making a dovetail for the tenon and the wood would come off. Now that you said not to make a dovetail on the tenon, the wood does not come off. I also make the groove for expanding the chuck with a small dovetail and have had no problems with that. Thanks for the information. Greatly appreciated. Good video . Now I have to try to make a rattle.
You are not the first person who had problems with Nova chucks by making a dovetail when the jaws want a parallel tenon. Glad I could help.
Thanks Mike. I guess I was ill informed about the chucks. Your videos are always informative.
Love your videos, have learned a lot new good ways of turning wood. Keep on posting.
Thank you so much!
Great project and an excellent video. Many thanks!
Glad you liked it!
👍🏼great job
Good demonstration Mike, and a nice little project. I've only done one so far, but I wrapped a narrow strip of sand paper on the shaft and put a drop of ca glue on the overlap ends, turn the lathe on slow while holding the ring to sand the inside edge. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing, Fred
Fred Graber That is a great idea Fred. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Most welcome.
good presentation skills and good presentation
Jim G Thanks for the encouragement, Jim.
Интересная игрушка :)
Another great video, Thank You! I use the Sorby captive ring tool. No matter what I do the ring comes out shaped more like a capital "O" than a perfect circle. Any advice?
Adjust placment of the cutter to cut away more wood where it is usually too fat? Sorry, never used that tool.
Really enjoyed turning can't wait to try it for my next grandbaby what speed should you use when you were cutting out the actual rings
About 1200 rpm. It is not critical. Do as much sanding before you cut the rings free!
Hello, and thanks for your videos, what is the vest wood for this proyect??
Most any hardwood. I would avoid exotics. I use maple and pear.
I have a question unrelated to baby rattles. I have a lot of scrap pine left over from other projects and I have been trying to use in in bowl turning. How do I keep it from cracking ? I run into this problem every time. I am new to working on a lathe so any help would be much appreciated.
Can I be blunt? If you keep running into cracking with pine, maybe you need to forget turning pine. I won't say that no serious turner turns pine bowls but the facts are, it would be rare. It is soft, difficult to get clean cuts, in most cases not attractive, not fun to turn, and will generally not hold up well to practical use. Just because it is easy to get expecially if it is on hand, doe not mean that is what you should be turning for bowls, even for practice. I don't know where you live but hardwoods are available in most locations. You just have to look for it. In my view Pine is good for spindle turning practice only. Sorry, if that is not what you wanted to hear.
@@MikePeaceWoodturning No offense taken. Thank you, and I will ditch the pine and go for better wood
Join a club and you will have no shortage of bowl wood from then on.
I realise it wouldn't survive for long with a baby, but would linseed oil or salad bowl finish be suitable? I am n the process of making one for my neighbour's newborn.
Thanks for an informative video.
Harry Smith I have had no personal experience using salad oil. Somehow the thought of boiled linseed oil does not appeal to me because it is so slow drying. BLO has hardners in it that I just would not be comfortable with a baby putting in its mouth. Buffing adds enough shine for me. You could make a buffer from a paint roller with wood plugs to turn between centers if you don't want to invest in a Beall system right now. Buffing makes them very smooth and somewhat shiny.
What a brilliant idea for a buffer! Thanks very much for the hints, I was just keen to put some sort of finish on it to seal the wood, in order to make it easier to clean, as it would be less likely to soak up moisture and dirt. I suppose as I am using beech, it should buff up well.
I just discovered this again, after three years! :-) You might try mineral oil for the finish. Nontoxic.
Thanks for the tip!
Hi I could only free one ring. I think I made mine too wide. I'm using a 3/8 ring tool.
+Jeffrey Kumjian nothing wrong with just practising making rings before expecting perfect results on a project.
Well lost me when shoeing your handmade tool, i have no way to make one. Still watching you and others
