My wife wanted a Lazy Susan for the downstairs island. She entertains down there often and would like a way for all her friends to be able to easily enjoy the variety of snacks and goodies that she makes available. There's actually very little that makes a Lazy Susan interesting since it's basically just the hardware mounted onto a board. With that in mind, I tried to come up with a way to spice it up a bit and to incorporate some artistic interest into the piece. Well, I think I did it! I used the "weaving" technique that I've explained in a previous video and managed to work in eight different species of wood into the piece. Walnut, Maple, Honey Locust, Purple Heart, Yellow Heart, Ipe, Marblewood, and Mahogany. Check out the video and see just how I ended up making, what I think just might be, the prettiest Lazy Susan ever!
Like the circle-cutting jig? Watch the Ultimate Table Saw Jigs pt.3 video to see how I made it!
“About donuts, I figured I could fit in another if I tried hard enough”
Had me wheezing. Fantastic video as always ;)
😋
I can’t get enough of this weaving technique! The woods you used were so cool looking all together. And I really like those last few stripes of maple you put in there for continuity.
Thanks Bruce. Yeah, I think those last two lines really brought it all together.
@@FishersShop Those last couple of strips ready made it work. I'm keen to give it a try....then turn it on the lathe as a dish.
Same here, addicted to the weave design!
Your description of the making process with puns and jabs on self are so much fun to watch.
I bought a Lazy Karen. It refuses to spin until it gets to speak to the manager.
Seriously though this is gorgeous, the weave down the side is great and the way that Yellow Heart stands out... just a perfect combination of fluid lines and textures.
Thanks, Alex! :)
I just want to pop in and say how much I appreciate your blooper reels. I listen to your videos while I game, and the combination of your voice and gorgeous visuals is really calming. The blooper reels add a level of unpolished humanity that's really comforting, because it knocks on the fourth wall enough to remind me that it's okay to make mistakes and small bloopers, because in the end it's all about the glowing wood finish, not the splinters you encounter on the way.
Simply stupendous. From the cinematography to the sound mixing to the jokes to the way you explain what you're doing, I cannot think of a way to praise this video more highly.
Tip of the cap to you, sir.
Great to hear!
The humor is just a cherry on top... Sweet work bro
You are a good storyteller as well as a creative one. Good sense of humor too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
He is honestly the funniest wood worker on UA-cam
This is beyond woodworking, this is art!
Beautiful piece!!
Thanks
Beautiful piece! I love your deadpan sense of humor. 🍩🍩🍩 This video especially made me laugh to tears.🤣🤣🤣 Maybe I'm easily amused, but I'm fine with it. Outtakes are a great idea!
Glad you enjoyed it!
There’s a genius level woodworker beyond this bloke’s self effacing humour. Outstanding.
Looks amazing beautiful work
Thank you so much 😀
Stunning!
Thank you! 😊
You did a damn good job brother
Thanks!
Echoing all that was said before - the design, your teaching style, the humor, the professional a/v - bravo!
I'm going to try your method to make some serving trays with curved handles similar to one I found in Wood Magazine but with the handles made from woven wood like yours. Thanks for the lessons and the entertainment!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You should make something in a weave for your kind neighbor. After all, he does donate so much material for your projects. Great job. I could watch you using this technique for hours. Btw, your humor is awesome.
:) Thanks for watching
I love you voiceover so humorous!
This woven pattern you do is gorgeous! Keep up the great work, it's always fun when a new Fisher's Shop video shows up.
Thank you so much!
I love the instant gratification that oil brings.
Beautiful, Drew! It looks fantastic! 😃
Really well done!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks so much
Anyone else have no clue what he was making for about 3/4s of this video but u love him so much you stayed and watched till the end . No just me. Ok
That technique and those woods would make an incredible solid body guitar - it would be gorgeous!!
That circle jig is fascinating!
Would've been nice to see your wife's reaction to it!
Love the comedic jibs and really enjoy your videos. This inlay technique is amazing.
Glad you like them!
I'm finishing up a Murphy bed made from solid walnut. I used Osmo to finish it. Oil/wax blends are now my default finishes. The look and feel is FAR superior to typical film finishes. Great video as usual.
Thanks!
One simple word for this work is "BEAUTIFUL"
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful result! And your neighbor didn't lose anything! Thanks!
Truely beautiful
Thanks
Beautiful build. I love that bandsaw technique for getting matching profiles on the pieces. I'll have to remember that.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
I am curious to know how much of your very patient neighbours property is left with all the projects you have made with the wood they kindly "donate" to you.
Great video Friend! Thanks for always sharing them with us!💖👍👌😎JP
Thanks for watching
Your very welcome Friend! Have a great week!😎
Amazing design
Thanks a lot! :)
Love that family portrait....the project is super-cool, too. :)
Thanks, Jason
That's amazing! Pure geometry and beauty.
This is such a clever technique, and as a beginner in woodworking, I can’t thank you enough for demonstrating it in such a simplified way; it really gets that idea wheel moving. 😬
Anyway, this is a beautiful piece.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video and amazing end result!
I just cannot believe that we have just about identical workshops! With the exception of the great space and the tidyness of course 🥴, all the nice tools, the timber and the great things you make... Yup, identical.
Fantastico, bellissimo, bellissimo
I love the woven look, and a lazy susan is a great alternative to endless takes on cutting boards. 😊
A few years ago I made a maple tool handle for a bowl gouge on my lathe, and I did a wavy cut in the maple blank and glued in a piece of green-dyed maple veneer. After drying, I then turned the blank 90° and did another wavy cut, and inserted another piece of veneer into the blank. Looked really nice after turning. I will have to try your technique to bring in other wood species, maybe on a cutting board, or perhaps on a lazy susan.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Lovely does not begin to describe this project.
I love these woven pieces you’ve made.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
I really love that woven technique. That's just beautiful.
I love your voice overs and the bloopers. These are awesome videos, I'm glad I stumbled on them!
Glad you like them!
Very beautiful! A piece of art!
I love how many different colors of sawdust there are.
Oh, incredible job, also.
:) Thanks
Another gorgeous piece!! Beautiful!!
There is only a couple honey locust trees on my place but a neighbor has quite of few. I was not planning to save the wood because of the three inch thorns but seeing how pretty it is, it will be harvested.
Start with the neighbor's trees. :)
Absolutely stunning finished piece.
Thank you very much!
As always, great technique, beautiful work and lots of fun too. 👏👏👏👏
Such an awesome technique! I had no idea this was possible but now will have to try it. Thanks!
Wow! Absolutely amazing work, as always
Lovely work as always Drew. Love the ‘weaving’, and the flat heads 😂
Many thanks!
Very Nice. Very Professional. Both the woodwork and the video. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
I watched the whole thing, but 9:27 was the moment I have been waiting for! As always a great watch! Good job, Drew!
Right? :) Glad you enjoyed it
Is that the money shot? Lol
Looking at your product I see something very attractive!
Excellent work, Sir. Excellent work, in deed.
Glad you enjoyed it
It's absolutely gorgeous, and I love your sense of humor.
Thanks!
Another great project, Drew. Thanks!
This is officially my new favorite channel!
Amazing work wood !!!!!!!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Simply beautiful.
Many thanks!
That table saw jig is mind-blowing
Beautifully stunning!!
Thank you so much!
This is potentially the most beautiful piece of art I've seen this year
Very beautiful.
I’m loving it.
Beautiful woodworking and the reference to your midsection was spot on! 😂😂😂😂👍👍😉😉
Thanks... I think. lol
Wow!! Love this! You’ve moved from builder, to Maker!!
What a gorgeous piece.
Thanks!
Very beautiful work!! Thank you.
I live the technique in doing the weave. Beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
That is a very cool project!
Well done
That circle jig for the table saw is genius! I want to try to replicate one for myself.
Wow. I love it. It’s beautiful not to mention functional.
Really like this Lazy Susan and it's given me food for thought, so thanks very much. Cheers
I have a very similar high-tech compass, but yours is fancier since it's walnut. Very cool build, looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you like it!
"Oh crap!". Love the outtakes. Lol!
That cove bit was well worth doing, I think that added a extra dimension to it. I think we're all thankful that walnut was in short supply for you during lockdown 🤣👍
That turned out beautiful. And thanks for showing, how to weave wood into each other. Learned a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow that's fun technique to join different kind of wood to create artistic looks👍👍👍
Yea he is good at what he does
Thank you so much 😊
Great stuff. Outtakes @ the end are a bonus
The woven cutting board is also a work of art.
Thank you for the video! I got a bandsaw right after seeing you first weave video! Amazing work, making this idea now but, not on a lazy susan. Thanks for ALL the great videos!
Besides being an excellent woodworker, you are hilarious! Thanks for all you do.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I used this technique to create cabinet panels in my van renovation build. The panels turned out simply amazing! I take the credit when I receive compliments on my wood working but when I'm asked how I learned to do it, I say youtube baby, youtube. Thanks for this excellent how to video... really. You make me look like I know what I am doing. Thank you.... no really... Thank you!
You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it
Interesting techniques. Just beautiful.
With your permission I’m going to use this video to help justify (to my wife) my *need* for a better bandsaw! I am eternally grateful! I was struggling before I saw this!
I didn't invent using a bandsaw to cut curves so, by all means, have at it. :)
I could watch your vids over and over again. So creative and humorous. Thks
Glad you like them!
Oh yes! This is stunning. I love the contrasting woods and the off-centre design. Looks great. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes.
Thank you very much!
Another beautiful project!
Thank you! 😊
Another outstanding addition to your home! Turned out beautiful. I don't have any experience weaving various woods like you did here but now I am tempted to give it a try. Thanks for posting, Great project and video!
Thanks! Good luck and have fun!
Masterpiece!
I don't know a damn thing about woodworking, but I love watching this. Fascinating!
Gorgeous!
Pretty cool, mate! Thanx for sharing! ;)
Glad you liked it!
Beautiful! You have real talent.
Thank you so much!
Very interesting
