I know this is an older video but I just came upon it. Old or not it is very nicely done. The pendants are very nice indeed. Fantastic finish. Great coloring. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and remember, when the wood goes around the face shield goes down.🙂🙂
Beautiful pendants Martin, and thanks for taking us through your process, a thoroughly enjoyable video again mate.
Take care
Mike

Well done Martin have been turning for many years 71 now, always something to learn, and a nice guy with it you are, I watched with interest and your skill level is amazing keep it comeing.
David.
Absolutely stunning Martin, you must have the patience of a Saint. They are beautiful, well done and best wishes, David
What a beautiful project I think I will give this a try on a few pieces of Eucalyptus that I have in my shop it should make a huge crowed gatherer in a craft show. Thank you for the fine tutorial.
have a great week
Albert
Thanks for sharing

The chirping of the birds 😍
Hi Sagar. Love the birds out here in the country. The workshop has moved now - still have some birds, but with more cows now!

That's amazing
They look great. Well done!
I just did a pendant video. I didn't realize you had one out, nice work. I really like the shapes and colors.
Good video and I saw Yoder's video earlier today. I don't have a bandsaw and your method of turning and then 'slicing' works for me. Going to make my granddaughters some of these soon for Christmas presents!
Lovely pendants, thanks for showing us your pendants
James
Very nice Martin thanks for sharing
Hi George,
Thank you - an old video this one. A lot of fun making those pendants!
Liked and subed. Hi Martin, i had no idea you could do things like those on a lathe. You have just added a load of ideas for me to try when my first lathe gets to me at the end of September, the only regret i have a bout wood turning is not trying it many years ago when i first though about it. Keep the videos coming there all great thank you.
Well done as always Martin!

Hi Dennis. Good to hear from you. Thanks for the comment.
All the best,
Martin
Beautiful pendants, I've been wanting to try using stains on wood, but have been a little to nervous as only been turning for a few months. You made it look easy and I think I may have a try it sometime soon. Thank you.
brilliant. they look great
Thank you Barry. Much appreciated.
Martin
very informative and nice work
Good job. You are good.
This is great!! Thank you!!
Very well done...I am always looking for ways to add color to light woods and this is perfect. sub!
Hi M, thanks for a great video. I enjoyed watching it. I like how the colours blend. Blessings, pierre from New Mexico
Another beautiful project Martin. Just found your channel a few days ago, and trying to catch up on all your videos.
Those are beautiful and the finish is especially good considering you are working with end grain. I bought a pack of those spirit dyes but I'm kinda scared of them because I'm colourblind so I'm not sure of what gos with what. Maybe I'll discover some unique, bizarre, colour match that will surprise the World. Then again... maybe not.
Best Wishes, Brendan.
Hi Martian I know this is a few years old now but of your colours and stains would work well and what Finnish would you also use
Hey Martin, are you opposed if I give these a go, please? They way you do it, you make it look so easy! Well done! Cheers, Sean
Nice work what they sell for
Muito bom!
Firstly there lovely !! couple of points , would it not be better to drill hole before lacquer , and have you tried hot glue to stick them on the lathe ?? All the best
Martin great video again, do you have links for the pendant bales, clasp and necklace please? Regards Trev
Thanks for watching. This was years ago now and I don't have the links any more. However, I did a simple search for 'jewellery findings' on eBay.
Loved the video Martin, going to try it myself, but as I live in Lanzarote getting timber is a nightmare. the only timber I can get is Pine out of Pallets, Have you ever tried making pendants out of Pine, and what was the result?
Martin, thanks for the video sir. Great work. I'm wondering what the type of paints you're using are?
I believe they’re listed in the video description under Spirit Stain.
A great project and beautiful result. How were the backs finished ?
Hi Martin do you leave the back a flat black? They are outstanding and thanks for the great video.
Jerry
Can't find ANY details re where to buy these products. Anywhere.
If you are looking for the bits for the necklace, search for 'jewellery findings' on eBay or Amazon. Thousands will appear. Just found 220,000 results on eBay.
What is the name of the pease called that you put in the pendent to hock the pendent to necklace
Great video Martin, I really enjoyed this one. I use Lacquer on 90% of my work and have done so for a few years now. I have never applied it to that depth however, and was impressed with how they had turned out. Have you ever taken a small flatwork to that depth of finish? (By small I mean A4 - A5 size)
Maybe I should try one at some point. Anyhow, keep up the vids, they are a nice break from my burning whilst I have a brew. :)
***** Thanks Martin, and yes I am very well thanks. I generally do up to three coats. I tend to soft brush my Lacquer, using the flow method on the first. ie brush lightly touches the wood and the lacquer flows and evens out, with some soak up from the wood. (A delicate operation) After that is dry, I bush two thinner coats, so probably comparable to your spraying 4-5 coats.
(If I have added colour I tend to use a couple or more spray coats of fixativ first mind, as I often use watercolour with my pyro, apart form my recent experiments with the pencils you have probably seen).
look forward to your next vids.

Great video Martin! I enjoyed it very much and really liked you showing all the details! I have turned a number of pendents and find they always are most welcomed as gifts to friends and family. One question though, you mentioned using 'bench oil' to cover the dyed colors to bring out the color...bench oil? Maybe mineral oil or? Not sure what that is and know it must be something compatible with laquer...but??? Again thanks for the video and look forward to your future ones! Safe turning always!
Hi Ken. I believe it's Danish oil he uses under the laquer. Best regards.
Martin matey can you tell me what those findings on the end of your leather is called would be greatly appreciated and a huge help right at moment
Hi Mumma Toni...The bits on the end of the leather pendant cords are called Cord Ends. eBay has loads of them, all different sizes. I searched for 'Leather Pendant Findings'.
I hope that helps,
Martin
Great work. Please say what lacquer and how you got them so glossy. Thankyou
Probably Chestnut Acrylic Gloss Lacquer. Chestnut is a UK company. You could use Hampshire Sheen lacquer, car lacquer, used by some, or Minwax Wipe on Poly.
Hi Martin
I'm enjoying the videos, where do you get those findings from?
Regards
Kevin
Hi Martin, great video re the pendants, I've just retired and started turning as a hobby, I would like to make a few of these for family members, could you let me know where I can buy the metal clasps and fittings for the pendants
I enjoy all your videos, well made excellent content and very informative.
