Hey Rick. I've been thinking of turning some tea light candle holders for my craft shows this year. You have inspired me. I love the shapes and especially your skew work - wow !!!! You've given me some great ideas. Thank Rick !!!
You saved me, Rick! I bought a dozen of those tea lights a couple of months ago, planning to make holders for them as Christmas gifts for extended family members I only see at Christmas. I made a prototype, about a month ago, as a little round hollow form so the tea light sits down inside of it. I then cut four vertical slits around it with a dremel so the light would shine through. Looks cool, but it took waaaay more time for me (as a newbie) than I really have time for to do a bunch of them en masse, and I have been close to abandoning the idea. But ... the way you did it, with just the flame sticking out, is way easier and faster. So ... tea lights for everyone! Thanks for the idea!
Thanks, George. I've just ordered another dozen tea lights to make more. I did several tea light with the light recessed inside and shining out through holes in the walls: ua-cam.com/video/u5LkdI1Bdx0/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/v-QViyf9fao/v-deo.html.
That might be where I got the idea! I watch so many UA-cam woodturning videos, I sometimes forget where I get ideas of things to turn! The one I made is pretty close to the one you made in that video, just a little smaller (abrosia maple, too!). Thanks for all your videos, Rick!
Thanks a lot Rick ... SWMBO caught me watching this video, now she wants me to get out in the shop and turn a half dozen or so for her! LOL ... Merry Christmas!
Boy, you hit a nerve with this one, Rick! I have not one but two tea lights I've been working on for a week or so, off and on. I think at my age the gray matter must be weakening a bit. I have made a simple project into a real complicated ordeal all on my own. I've come to realize the tea light does not produce an abundance of light, duh! Both project have been fun, thanks for the fine video.
It works great for burning lines. If you haven't already watched it, you might want to look at this video I did about burn lines: ua-cam.com/video/Qd-o-R75xgg/v-deo.html

Really liked how that cherry finished! Apple is nice that way too! Very nice project.
Thank you, Terry.
Great vid. We use them all the time. Never an issue with flame as long as only use tea light with metal base and lip is not over candle.
I do like tea light candle holders. Thanks for watching, Pizza.
Great job Rick :) ॐ
Thanks, Yogi!

Thanks for posting redirect Rick off to shed as I type!😆😆😆😆😆

Nice
Thank you, Rona.
They turned out nice. Where do you get your wood at?
Hi, Joe. The oak in this video came from a road-widening project near my home. The cherry I got from a nearby homeowner who took a cherry tree down.
What angle do you grind that skew? I want to try it
It's right 35 degrees. Thanks for watching, Steve.
@@RickTurnsWoodturning wow it looked like a much thinner edge but I think mine are still over 40. Whatever factory itls
What was the finish.. Too fast in vid
I think it was friction polish that I used on the weedpots. That's what I always use on small items. Thanks for watching, Marv.
