When I was a kid, an old neighbor of mine would do this with just a pocket knife and a piece of wood. He would carve balls inside pieces, a ball going down a spiral, several balls inside certain designs, etc. He would also carve animals out of something like a peach pit. From what I remember, he told me that the house he grew up in was built by hand by his father. Every single wood shingle on the roof and sides were cut individually and then nailed in place. His father taught him and when he got older, he put all new wood shingles himself on his new home. In fact, he built a miniature model of the home he grew up in and made it all by hand as well. Every little wood shingle done the same way. It was really impressive.
Wow, that's an amazing story! It's incredible to hear about such intricate craftsmanship done with just a pocket knife. The level of detail and skill your neighbor had is truly inspiring. Hand-carving balls inside of wood and making intricate designs is no small feat. The dedication and tradition of handcrafting, passed down from his father, is really special. The miniature model of his childhood home sounds like a beautiful tribute to his roots. Thanks for sharing this wonderful memory
@@AkaizWoofThank you. Wish I had photos of that miniature model of his home he made. It's something I've always remembered, especially how detailed it was.
I was a full time woodturner when I was young and it’s good to see such competent use of chisels when I am used to seeing incompetent use of scrapers so often on you tube masquerading as clever woodturning. Cheers and well done.
Definitely Correct.........Many turners especially newer one have no idea what a gouge, skew or many other tools are. Everything they do is done with Carbide scrapers. I've spent 35 years leaning to use real woodturning tools correctly and I'm not going to give up that skill. I do have a specialty negative rake carbide tool that I use specifically for when I turn Resin.
I agree. I’ve seen far too many scraped and then sanded to death turnings on UA-cam. All the thought goes into clever glue ups or weird wood selection, and very little into skillful tool use. This turner is a master, and the video was wonderful to watch.
@@robstevenson675 Yes, such a great video showing this technique. Wish the author would have verbally given some information as the video progressed such as dimensions, how to layout the 12 holes on the Sphere, and a pattern of the cutting tool. Going to give this project a try, but now must go through my own "Trial & Error" process to get to the goal. Oh well, I'm retired and have the time:)
As a newly graduated electrical engineer I went to work for a company which made microwave systems. Microwave systems are more like plumbing, with waveguide connecting the components. Some times we might need a special connector that could be made on a lathe, so in the machine shop there was a special lathe and some tools reserved specially for engineers who didn't know much about lathes but knew the shape they needed. Along with the reserved lathes there were some mostly broken tools to use and the engineers couldn't use any of the good tools. I used the lathe once, and of course broke at least one tool, making a special connector for an odd shaped microwave vacuum tube.
This is absolutely fascinating to watch. Every step is so thought out and planned in advance to allow the project to come together in the end. Great video.
Wow! I clicked on this completely expecting to see some trick like gluing two halves together or something. Totally blown away by how this was done. Thank you for sharing.
When I was much younger, in the early 1960’s I used to watch my grandfather and a couple of his friends sitting on benches along the Ohio river carve stuff like this with pen knives by hand!!! Balls inside square blocks, balls inside balls, balks on double chain links. The stuff the gentlemen could whittle out of drift wood was amazing for us little kids to sit and watch
I have seen similar item hand carved by Soviet POW but it had an additional ball inside the inside one. I wish I still had it. Kudos for that craftsman.

This work confirms that you are a skilled craftsman. With your skillful hands, you have breathed life into meaningless objects into highly valuable masterpieces. I hope your channel will grow more and more.
Thank you for making me feel stupid. You are very talented. I have a master's degree in physics and am incapable of doing what you do. Thank you for sharing.😁😁😁😁
Thank you for sharing this amazing wonderment...such skill and beauty...it was magical watching your artistry, I found every moment riveting. I'm so glad I found this and you didn't take the vid down.
Very cool! You are obviously very experienced and skilled on the lathe! My an ha moment was when you started popping the plugs out! That was a lot of work, making the necessary jigs and plugs and all!
Интересно. Думаю расчёты,разметка и подготовка приспособ заняло больше времени чем работа над самим изделием😏 Ну а после первой "погремушки" остальные отлетали как семечки.(судя по их количеству)😁
Hi Richard! David has inspired me to turn special pieces last 30 years. I didn't know about his passing. I solved the next piece of wood myself and it was difficult. ua-cam.com/video/ZQz9EJRXIYc/v-deo.html

UA-cam FINALLY suggested something I can get into. Am I ever going to do this? No. Clearly not. Was it worth watching? Absolutely. I can officially say I have now witnessed a MASTER laither.
Back in my childhood (1980s), in the USSR, I had a steel toy made on a lathe by a graduate of a vocational school. This toy was a ball placed in a cube, which, in turn, was also in a cube. Such toys were a mandatory test of professionalism for novice turners at the South Ural Machine-Building Plant (the city of Orsk). By the way, such a trinket was a symbol of the plant and was installed on a stele near the plant management. Nevertheless, thanks for the video, it was interesting to see the process of making such a trinket from wood. Sincerely from a casual viewer from Russia.
We used to be able to buy these with over 13 concentric rotating circles inside them made from Ivory when I was in the USAF in Japan. They came from Hong Kong. They were about $5.
The work of artist, nicely done. Is that hook tool something that you have ground yourself ? in thirty years of woodturning, its a tool that I have never seen before . Surely it must be very prone to aggressive catches ?
I have to make all the special tools myself. They are aggressive and you have to be careful. CAD drawings for special tools can be found here. www.hitechedu.fi/woodturning/

When I first saw the shape I thought there must be some trickery involved. After watching the whole film I still don't believe my eyes and think magic was involved!
Obvious once one has seen it done (which is not to deny for a moment the impressive amount of skill that goes into actually doing it), but I hadn't managed to work out for myself how to do it in the many years since I first saw an object like this.

Out of all the wood turning videos I've watched this is the most interesting one.
This is amazing! I watched how you did it and still don't believe it's possible! LOL! Truly amazing!

You sir are a genius. I would love to be this skilled at turning
Мастерство превыше всего , респект , лайк !
WOW! What precision. Awesome!
Yeah, I done the same using a rusty penknife and an old fork! Seriously though, this is just incredible...well done mate 👍
My grandfather made many of those & his only power tool was his pocket knife.
c'est de grand art! Maintenant je comprend. merci et bravo!
Quelle maîtrise, félicitations 👍
