Spatula Part 2

Nothing is better than a spatula for slapping around some cake batter or scrambled eggs. Tim shows you how to turn one of these handy beaters. Part 2
You can find instructional DVDs, Tim’s Tools and the Elbo Hollowing Tool on the Woodturning with Tim website: www.woodturningwithtim.com
Robust Lathes: www.turnrobust.com/
I am a Robust dealer (which adds nothing to your costs) and I am more than happy to help you pick out and configure your new lathe.

These are the finest, long lasting turning tools on the market. I have used them since our first shows on PBS.

Big thumbs up Tim👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@tomasarguinzoni9022]

Great job my friend 👍🏼

[@Woodden]

Very nice spatula.

[@ZoeSummers1701A]

Love this idea. Wish I had a lathe to try this out. You're wonderful to watch and learn from. Looking forward to more!

[@wb_finewoodworking]

That’s a really great idea. Those would be perfect gifts for some cooks that I know.

[@oneshotme]

Thumbs up and enjoyed as well!!

[@timhalcomb4041]

Thanks for sharing really appreciated it good information

[@jflemingsandiego]

I might have suggested a skew for the handle for more advanced turners. Even better finish than the gouge, and easier to maintain a flowing handle curve. Nice job. Nice project.

But you ARE good at physics and geometry, because you know where to set the tool rest height! (2:10)

Hey Tim, one thing I like to do with my cutting boards is to make a solution of mineral oil mixed with beeswax. I use about a 4:1 ratio, and it work well.

[@MikePeaceWoodturning]

Yep, I made some and also use it for sanding lubricant to keep the dust down.

[@moonwoodworks4607]

Thanks for the tutorial, that looks like it will be a great project. What kind of sandpaper is it you are using?

[@Dan-jw5xv]

Tim talked about a backing for the abranet. Where can I get that?

[@ScottKershawRX]

Part two was great as well! You briefly mentioned raising the grain. Other than sanding to a fine grit, what else do you do to avoid the grain raising the first time it's washed?

[@thailandblack]

Speaking for the handle and depending on the lathe, you can reverse the spin direction. Sanding in only one direction can make the grain lay down. Change the grit, change the direction.

[@Jerseyhighlander]

So why do they call it "mineral" oil, when it doesn't come from or contain any, minerals?
