Woodturning multi axis Coffee Cup with simple jig on the wood lathe. Or is it a coffee mug?

- Woodturning multi axis for the second time where I make a jig for the wood lathe. Making a coffee mug this time, or maybe it´s a coffee cup, or a kuksa.
I thought this technique was for more experienced woodturners but I was excited to see it actually working for a beginner woodturner as well. A fun wood turning project for sure.
Again I have to thank my inspiration for this jig:
I´ve seen @CarlJacobson do this a few years ago and recently I saw @industrialcomfort doing the same. Thank you for the inspiration! :) They use a bit different jigs, both with their advantages. I used the same as Industrial Comfort and it worked well for me.
Here is a link to their videos:

This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.
What is that?
@@nordicturning , no thanks. All money goes to China.
Great job, Jethro. Now fill it to the brim with nice, hot, coffee and set it down on the desk next to your computer.
🤦 can’t believe I didn’t think to flatten the bottom! 😉
And add some nice whisky or rum. 👍😋
A simple ring of some kind will do for a stand, or maybe embedded in a saucer. It is quite beautiful as an orb.
It's a kuksa, not a coffee cup.
Nice job, though I really liked the two contrasting wood idea, not sure if you meant to remove all the light wood. I'd be tempted to rotate the next one and get a nice off-centre line running through the cup!
He used cheap pine for the half that would just be waste anyway. Saves on cost. He saved himself about $10-$20 of walnut wood chips LOL Great idea! Plus it allows him to use 2" thick walnut which is more readily available.
@@rolandrivard2667 thanks for the explanation, I've not started turning yet - but that seems like a genius idea!!!
@@CBPM_ Roland is right, used cheap construction lumber so I didn’t have to waste expensive walnut. But I like your idea of two types of wood in this design. The combo did look really nice 😃
@@rolandrivard2667 thanks Roland, you are of course right 😃
Please what is the finish you used ?
I used a foodsafe danish oil on this. I know there are a few other alternatived. Some use foodsafe epoxy to make it completely sealed.
You could do the bottom of the bowl first and create a base for it to sit on, then reverse it to excavate the inside. I can't figure out how to make a better shaped handle. In either case, especially if you're the beginner you say you are, I'm amazed. I've been watching woodturning videos for a while just because they're so much fun. I think you've finally inspired me to start actually learning to do it myself. 🙂 Most everyone else uses mostly the gouge and only occasionally the skew. You seem to do the opposite and it really looks more efficient, especially those peeling cuts. Does it leave a better finish than the gouge? I really enjoy your channel. Thanks!
I didn't know where that was going. Brilliant! What an awesome unique design! I liked the lighter rim on the cup, kind of made it look like a cappuccino. Be cool to see one where about 1/2" of the rim stays a lighter wood. Thanks for sharing this genius technique! 🧠💥
Thank you Calvin 😃 I agree, a combination with lighter wood would be nice. I’ll try next time 👍
Really nice! Thanks for sharing your technique.
🤩
Beautiful piece. Love your method for getting the inside out.
Thank you Clyde, really appreciate! 😃
Интересная технология. Надо попробовать.
Used your jig for a coffee scoop! Turned out nicely. Thank you!
Awesome 😃 Good job 👍
Search for "making kuksa".
Kuksa is a traditional (at least here in Finland) wooden cup or mug.
You are so amazing..
Thanks for sharing 🙏
I love this video! And the idea! I think I will start withi the scoop. I think this is really clever. I can’t wait to see what comes next.
I’m glad you like it Clayton 🤩 best of luck and stay safe 👍
Needs a flat bottom otherwise it's just an ornament!
Also, what oil did you use? Is it both waterproof and food safe?
Why would you waste half the work when you could just have made a simple jig amd sawn it in half on the bandsaw and then have _two_ cups instead of one cup and a heap of shavings?
There are a few reasons why I didn’t make two cups in one go here. I wantet to get the most out of my 5cm walnut piece. Not sure you can see it in the video, but the piece is not mountet on the lathe in the center of the walnut and the sacrificial construction lumber, but off set towards the walnut. It let’s me have a deeper cup and handle. So if I just cut it in half on the bandsaw i would lose 1cm dept in the cup and the handle would be to thin for what I was going for. If I had a 10cm thick walnut piece I would have a different design cup and jig to make the most of the wood. But the sacrificial construction lumber in this one I don’t worry to much about removing. Thanks for watching and commenting 😃
Very nice. Good thing you added the light colored wood!
Very cool love it and your videos much better editing than mine lol
Thank you Adam 🤩 Your editing is bad at all! I had to check ;) But where do you get the music from? Like your intro btw
Great job on the piece 👌. I love the two tone you started with. Gives me an idea to glue some walnut and elm together and make something 😁
Glad you like it James 😃 Very cool technique, with many possibilities 👍
This is great. The idea has been bouncing around in my brain for a while. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure 🤩 so simple but so effective 👍
Hi Nordic turning...
Really beautiful coffee scoop... it looks very tactile...
Love your method.. I must have a go at this... never tried it...
A couple of commenters got me quite angry .. had to stop myself... who do they think they are...
Anyway... Haha... great video.. well produced and entertaining...
Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy! Thank you so much for your comment 🤩 I’m so glad I came across this technique, so much fun. Looking forward to see your take on it 👍
As for the comments.. some harsh feedback I must say. But so many nice comments like yours make up for it. Don’t get me wrong, I do appreciate criticism and tips on my woodturning, I have learned a lot from the commenters. I do appreciate your support, thank you 😃
Good job and turned out really nice. I found it easier to drill a hole for the handle whilst the two pieces of the jig were still screwed together.
Thank you Alan 🤩 i tried that when I made the coffee scoop, works well 👍 for this one I had to adjust a lot with sanding couse the handle was odd shaped
To me a wooden Coffee cup? No way...but I really like the way you are doing!!
Nice. You should re-chuck your part and add a flat on the bottom. Nice job. and Thank you.
A simple ring of some kind will do for a stand, alone or maybe embedded in a saucer. It is quite beautiful, thanks for showing!
I like that idea! I will try that next time for sure 😃 thank you 👍
@@nordicturning, I look forward to it. Here is one shape I imagine, and you are welcome to it if you care for it. It is as if the sphere was set down suddenly in a saucer of liquid, making ripples radiate outward, diminishing in size. I know that your own version will be very attractive!
Needs a flat bottom to put it down.
a Viking coffee cup - one that you can't put down until it's empty
😆👍
Nice, I’ll have to try this as part of my kitchen collection.
If i put my coffee cups/scoop the coffee will fall out
Great idea and even greater outcome! But shouldn't have sanded a flat plane on the bottom so that you could set it down with liquid in it? Also, what did you finish it with, walnut oil?
Thank you Howard 🤩 The idea is to use it as a kuksa. A cup you bring in your backpack when hiking and things like that. It doesn’t hold a full cup of coffee just enough to keep you warn when outdoors 😆 I used a foodsafe danish oil for finish 👍
Maybe watch a video by Richard Raffan and learn how to use a skew chisel... The amount of tear out is an abomination.
Thank you for the comment. I’m watching his and others videos all the time. You’ll see me using the skew in my recent videos as I’m trying to learn how to use it. It sure ain’t a easy tool.
Unbelievable..🤐
I'm proficient with all the traditional turning tools, including the skew, but I've found that whatever can be done with a skew can also be done efficiently with other tools that are less prone to produce the occasional "catch from hell."
The other tools include shear scraping with the bottom wing of a bowl gouge, shear scraping with a traditional scraper, and even cutting with a 3/8" (10 mm) spindle gouge. However, the long point of a skew is excellent for incising a fine line on a spindle or other work piece.
You might enjoy Raffan's video, Understanding Woodturning Catches, here on YT on the Finewoodworking channel. Sometimes things don't go as planned, even for a master, which Raffan certainly is.
As I said, I can use a skew but I'll go with a "safer" tool whenever possible. I have nothing to prove.
@@clarencegreen3071 I’ve been watching videos of Raffan and others, and I’m learning a lot. But sometimes I just have to try and see what works myself. Sometimes with catastrophic outcome(you should see my video where I use the skew on the outside of a bowl 🤦). Still learning 👍
That center-out hollowing is going against the grain, is prone to catching, and leaves a lousy finish. That technique is appropriate for spindle orientation.
My favorite feature is the lack of a flat bottom. No reason to set that coffee down.
I agree 👍 someone suggested I make a simple ring as a stand. That too is interesting
Amazing work👍👍
Great job and idea. Nothing done on a lathe is a waste of time or effort. Like the work!
Thank you Chip 🤩 I agree with you 😃
Very cool video thanks for sharing!
Glad you like it 👍 thanks for watching 🤩
Yep, another cup to use in the morning to make sure you are awake!
😆😃
What did you put on it to make it food safe?
A foodsafe oil from mylands 👍
@@nordicturning thanks
Cool
Great job on this one as well as the last, I was wondering why you didn't use a paper glue joint and separate the waste piece from the cup that way?
Thank you 😃 I have actually never tried that. Afraid it will come loose and fly in my face 😆
@Nordic Turning I've used it when turning half finials for a Newell post I used paper bag paper and a mixture of half yellow glue and half water. After turning it, I used a sharp chisel and a single sharp hit with a mallet. The residue is easily cleaned off with a scraper.
@@nordicturning I can't wait to try your method out for myself
So there was no point in the lighter wood?
how can there be a point when it was a semi-sphere?
Excellent work tank you.
👍🤩
Really good tool control…….Bravo
Thank you 🤩
Very well done
Thank you 🤩
Nice!!!
🤩
Looks great!
Thank you Sven 🤩
it's a beautiful cup? Mug? Nope, still a scoop, as it has no flat spot to rest on while being filled or in between sips. (like the flat spot on your salt box) I guess, if you had a big communal bowl of coffee, tea or Viking mead you could scoop it out and use this like a cup. No, then it would be a ladle. But. I enjoyed getting another look at the jig. Thanks much 👍
Next time I’ll try with a flat bottom 👍 I’ll use this as a kuksa. A cup I bring in my backback when hiking. It’s so cold here the coffee will get cold if I put down the cup, so no need for a flat bottom 😆
@@nordicturning @Nordic Turning ... Oh, i see. Yes, a guksi !
I should have thought of that; and now I know your channel name is authentic.
I will keep my eyes open for a nice piece of birch burl; and you can show us that cool jig again. I suggest adding a leather strap (toggle), to make it more 'sámi'.
Thank you for sharing your new craft with us/ ~ ♿Lisa 🛠
@@geolisadrag-racing2349 that is a good idea, having a leather strap. I was thinking about drilling a hole in the handle for a string or something, but couldn’t get myself to do it 🤦 But a nice leather strap would look great 👍 next time for sure. And yes legit nordic here 😆
How to waste lots of wood, power, tools, and time in a spoon.
Hi Jose and thanks for watching. Not sure I follow. Maybe better to buy a spoon, but it’s my hobby and I don’t consider it wasting anything.
José- I am sorry things are not going well for you right now. There is so much bad shit in the world. Too many problems with too few solutions.
I know, that when you have big things going on your life, the little things other people spend time doing and watching and commenting on, things that should be irrelevant to you, can seem extra annoying, irksome even.
Try to understand that- for some people, it's the 2 hours spent doing or the 10 minutes spent watching something, something that seems pointless, to you, that gets us through all the other big bad bullshit in our lives.
Even a hungry kid will kick a ball around for a while, and a baby sick and in pain can be distracted by something shiny, even if it is for only a few moments. So, don't begrudge us our shiny objects.
I will be keeping you in my thoughts José. I hope things get better for you. OR that you find the right distraction to take your mind off it all, for a while. Wood turning does not seem to work for you. Maybe search pets on security cameras or look up television shows from your childhood. I've been watching Barney Miller, but it got a little heavy so i switched to Bewitched. 📺 Good luck~ 🛠Lisa♿
Its a ladle
