Making A Christmas Orb
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лип 2024
- This year's Christmas ornament is a sphere made from a walnut dodecahedron. I have cut a simple Christmas graphic on each of the 12 sides of the dodecahedron. Overlaid on this I added some colored pencils to add some detail. For example, there's a wreath that is a simple donut shaped inlay out of wood and the colored pencils make the bow and the decorations in the wreath. There's a simple gingerbread man shape with colored pencil frosting. The simple graphics on the sphere are made from cherry wood and the sphere itself is made from walnut wood. The sphere turned out larger than I had expected so it's really a little bit big for hanging on a Christmas tree.

The kids have gotten to that age that they think "Dad is weird" and don't want to participate.. We all as fathers go through the same thing. A few more years and they will be begging to be in your videos again.. Merry Christmas Frank and family!
Very true. And we were kids once as well!
What's really funny, is that those same kids start doing it again about 10-15 years later or so, haha
you are absolutely right!!! They will do it!!!
So, anyway merry Christmas!
Love the fact that you included the large bandsaw segment where you didn't feel like it was safe. Trust your instincts and there's almost always another way to do it. Merry Christmas Frank!
I was thinking that Frank could put the ball in the lathe cup and slide that across the bandsaw table as a safe way to hold it.
Back at cha Frank and thanks for all the time and expense you invest in your videos. They are certainly the top 2 or 3 on the Tube! !! !!!
I love that you show your mistakes and your thought process. Life’s like that sometimes
when cutting multiple "dowel" type things I tend to tape them together with blue tape (sort of making a bigger log) and use my table saw sled. With 8 or 10 taped together they don't fly off after the cut. Then I just untape them.
Merry Christmas Frank. All the best you you and your family. Thank you so much for this years artistic entertainment!
Looks great as always Frank. I feel like these videos have now become part of the holiday tradition and I look forward to them coming out around Christmas.
I am looking forward to the year when you carve a tree on the lathe to become the home for all these ornaments you have made in years past
BOWLING BALL. Regulation size complete with finger holes. Segmented, solid or what ever you could dream up. Keep up the the great work we enjoy your videos.
A beautiful piece!
And I spotted the TARDIS on that tree! 😍
adding a splash of colour with pencil crayons is such a good idea!
That is an absolutely beautiful ornament for around the base of the tree. We usually put a wood house our daughter made, a light up ornament our son made and other cute things.
Merry Christmas! I hace watched these videos for 7years now, and it brings me a lot of joy to discover what new ornament you’ve designed for this year. Thank you and many blessings
Time for Frank’s annual ornament that is once again too heavy to hang on the tree! 😂
edit: I made this comment before I got to the end of the video
He should make a ornament holder in the shape of a Christmas tree to display all the ornaments he has made over the years.
@@gunslinger1108 The re-usable stick- or board-tree to lego- or dovetail together recurrently that could replace the annual throw-away christmas fir. I made those in different sizes some decades ago and gave those away in the family and to friends, but people generally found it "not the real thing" enough to actually abstain from fir and spruce. There's probably not any more conservative time during the year than christmas and newyear no matter how "progressive" people seem to be all the other weeks 😁
Thank you for providing more inspiration for us mere mortals. I love you.
Merry Christmas Frank and family! I have teenagers at home and your video support that this is their passage of time, and I loved how you commented on this. Your woodwork is as always such a thoughtful process.
The way you used colored pencils here really was inspired
Thanks Frank, can’t wait for the Christmas video where the kids get over themselves and rejoin you. Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas Frank. And thank you.
Judging from the 'most replayed' graph on the video timeline, people *really* loved watching you pin clamp your hand!
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thank you for some fantastic videos throughout the year.
Merry Christmas Frank and to all your family, and all your extended family here, a very Merry Christmas. Thank you for your wonderful videos, they mean a lot to me and I am sure to all who view them.

I'm sure people have said this before, but seeing that big dodecahedron made me think it would be neat to see you make a large set of D&D many sided dice!
Merry Christmas, Frank!

I'm sure all of us were looking forward to your next holiday video and see your kids grow up. Thanks for the great work you do.
