Woodturning - 4 Months of Work! Was it Worth it?!

After the immensely positive response from the first watch box video I just had to make another, my plan for this mini-series is to make the box reflect the piece that is inside of it. I just love the loom of my Christopher Ward Moonglow and wanted to replicate the stunning stars but give it a planetary twist.
The main body of the watch box is made from Rippled Ash, with a connecting piece of London Plane.
The three planets on the lid of the box, from largest to smallest are made from, Ziricote, Spalted Box, and Pau Rosa. Each of these woods brings a unique tone and each is rare and special in its own right.
The woods have all been sanded to 10000 grit and finished with Danish Oil, and sanding sealer (on some)
Let me know what you think, this took over 4 months of hard work, planning, turning, and perfecting this new box. Please go and support Christopher Ward as they have supported me, I truly recommend their wonderful watches!

My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so. - Навчання та стиль

Hi Harry I love the watch but hate the price tag!@@HarrySmithShorts
@@lucianosalt2396 🤣😂 it's a beautiful watch, a real statement piece. Have to get saving ... 😉
Not much of a watch guy. But Cosmology, Astrophysics, and the Quantum Theory realms I enjoy; made this all make sense. Nicely done and well thought out.
Thank you very much Frank! Would you like to see more watch boxes even though youre not a watch guy? Did you like the watch anyway? 😊 www.christopherward.com/dress-watches/c1-moonglow/C01-40AMP1-S00K1-CK.html?I_Harry_smith
@@HarrySmithWoodturning One should respect the design, quality, and engineering of a fine machine. As a retired engineer myself, you have a Ferrari of watches my friend. Others will definitely want to store theirs in boxes of matching quality.
Go for it lad! 😉
Show us what you got, so we can continue to learn from ya.
Kidding about the lad thing. I'm old to many.
Just wow! ❤

The watch is stunning but I’d rather see you make the watch boxes!
I’m not a fan of the watches (although that one is beautiful), but I love the box. The detail is so perfect for what’s inside. Would love to see more like that.
Thanks Sue. It is a beautiful watch. Glad you liked the project. What would you say was your favourite part? 😃🪵👍

@@HarrySmithShorts I liked the additional thin wood around the base and top. Don’t get me wrong. I loved the buttons you added to the top for the galaxy theme. I just like small details like the ring.
@@clydeschuyler thanks clyde, it was London Plane, one of my most favourite woods. The grain is beautiful 😃🪵👍
Well done

Hi Harry Nice Work. In a previous video I watched you turn a piece of what I call Cedar and in that video you used a attachment on your banjo that replicates the headstock. Where did you get it?
Nice work, I just see one big mistake in the finish - before gluing the 3 wooden "planets" on the lid of the etui you should have renewed the black varnish in the drilled beds for them - this way the exposed wall of the underlying wood "shines" along the edges ...
I though that area was coated with the luminous paint to show a lunar halo, not a mistake. It shines like the stars 😇 🪐🌒
Sorry I got bored.
Good idea 😉
Nice work 👍👏👏👏
