that was really amazing! I am so inspired by your video. I make wands, currently they are naturally shaped as the branch comes. I had always wished I could make more designs that had the addition of turning, but knew I could never afford a lathe. I am a DIY kind of girl, and this is absolutely perfect! I can't wait to get started on making my bow lathe. Very nice work! Blessed Be
@modernhmong1 Hi. What this guy turned is a spurtle. It's a pretty basic stirring stick, really - most used to stir porridge rather than a spoon, I believe.
"Treewright uses 4000 year old technology to make a traditional Scottish porridge stirrer from sycamore " The knob on the end is a thistle, a traditional Scottish emblem.
I'm afraid there's no special secrets to sharpening just Patience, Practice & Persistence !! When you work green wood all the tools have to be razor sharp as the tool finish is the final one to be left on the work.
I have seen this done before only instead of a bow to generate rotation it was a spring sapling with a foot pedal so both hands are free. Still a cool technology though.
Thanks for your feedback. Have a look at my other movies specially 'Treewright Makes a Spinning Top' where I'm using a variation the type of lathe you describe.
when somebody tells you:"nice! you made it with you own hands?" you can answer: "yes! and with my own feet too!"... ah ah ah ah did i just said that? what a bullsh*t...sorry about that...

Talent only comes with practice Julian so get another bowl blank on your lathe and try again!
Interesting - would this work for dry wood working as well?
Sharp axe
I just wondered - what is a spurtle?
Morocco
Bet it's so sharp you could shave with that hatchet.
Oh, I get it - it's a Scottish thistle.
