- This is the third video in a series intended to help new turners make simple, sellable items to fun their shop/hobby. Links to the first 2 videos below. In this video I show how to take a piece of 1-1/2" x8-1/2" scrap and make an $8 honey dipper in 10 minutes. These are great at craft shows, markets, gift shops and can also be supplied to Apiaries who sell honey at their locations or at markets. As a bonus, I show a second honey dipper being made with only 2 skew chisels as I learn to turn with that tool. I hope you enjoy this video, thank you for watching!

Hello my friend,
Congrats on the project and smart way of working that hides great experiences. see you later. Big greetings.
Welcome aboard, I appreciate you watching!
I admire your determination in sticking with the screw chisel. The first time I tried one, I got a catch and it kicked back and cut my finger. I haven't tried that again!
Thanks Joe. It is really a fun tool to use, just take a load of practice. Thanks for for watching!
Good job on presentation and demo .Appreciate you sharing. The skew just takes practice
Hey David! Lots of practice in my case! Thanks so much for watching
Watched live, gave a thumbs up, and now commenting. Hopefully CZcams gets the hint. 😊 I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for doing them for us.
Thank you Marjie! I appreciate you watching!
I took a class many years ago with Alan Lacer, who I consider the master of the skew. One of the excises in class was beads and coves with a skew and practice, practice and more practice. Once you learn, it’s like riding a bicycle and you hardly ever need to sand. Nice job on the honey dippers.
I've watched him on CZcams, very smooth! Thank you for watching!
Another great video, well done! As someone fairly new to woodturning, I really appreciate this series. You also have inspired me to practice more with the skew chisel as well. The only way we overcome our fears is by facing them. Thank you!
Thank you Richard! I have 4-5 hours in with the skew now, using it for more than a scraper, so I have a long way to go with it. Thanks so much for watching!
Great tutorial on turning a honey dipper. Thanks a lot.
Thank you Jack, I appreciate you watching!
LOL, I loved the practice pile. Enjoyed as always.
Thanks Dave.....reality CZcams! Thanks for watching!
Nicely done!
Thank you Chris! I appreciate it!
For a guy who is not to good with a skew, that looked darn good to me. I watched my grand daddy use a skew, and he used to tell me, "It's a sharp edge against a piece of wood, just like your pocket knife." I usually end up with stuff flying across the shop...😀😀😀
Thanks Edward, not so great yet but someday! Thanks for watching!
Thank you, very educational. Building a lathe now, can’t wait to try my hand at these.
Excellent, I know you will enjoy it. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing Lewis. Quite a nice idea. Will have to have a go at making some of these and as you, use it for some skew practice.
Thank you Jiggsy! I appreciate it buddy!
I am really enjoying this series of videos. I have made over a dozen bud vases to sell.
That is excellent Ken! I hope they move well for you. Thanks for watching!
Nice quick project, Lewis. Thanks.
Thank Copper, I appreciate you watching!
You have the cleanest and sharpest tool i have ever seen. Nice
Thank you Joseph, I appreciate it!
I really enjoy your turnings. Thanks
Thank you George, I appreciate it!
You do good work, says a old man
From one old man to another! Thank you for watching!
Keep coming back..made my first one in newbie workshope. Going to make 3.. I just realized ..you can cut against grain. Love actual time. I am trying to go too fast..
You can sometimes yes. I appreciate you watching!
Another amazing project video, Lewis.... you have taught me so much! Thank you!!!
Thank you DD, I appreciate you watching buddy!
Hi Lewis, I love them both. Very nice skew work as well.
I have just posted a Shorts video of making a Honey Dipper and used a Skew for the first time in over 2 years.
Definitely more practice needed as the Skew was the main tool I used when making pens.
Great video and I'm really liking this series as Craft Fairs will open up here again at some point this year.
Take are Lewis. Cheers, Huw
Thank you Huw! I watched yours in the big screen last night! Nicely done! Thank you for watching!
Great job! I’m just learning, I will have to try making these. You sure make it look easy.
Thank you, I really appreciate it! Love to see some if you make them!
I have made many of these and have given them away. Friends and family always appreciate something that you have made in your shop. Nice to see your video. Cheers from the Ottawa Valley.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Looks great 👍 good work with the skew tour shavings look great , i too need to practice my skew use .. love my bowl gauge .. thats why i like watching your videos ..
Thank you Fred, it is hard to put the gouge down for sure! I appreciate you watching!
This ia a great project also. I have not made these but didn't realize they were very popular. I do make a lot of spatulas and they alone would pay for my entry fees into the shows I do. I have made north of a hundred and they sell well. i turn the handle part and finish the blades on the bandsaw and finish the shaping on a belt sander.
Thanks for your time,
Lee
Thank you Lee, I appreciate you watching!
Cool project. Nice job with the skew.
Thank you Sid, lots more practice required. Thanks for watching!
Great job thanks for Sharing.
Thank you Dean, I appreciate it!
Kudos on the skew usage. It is truly one of the most versatile tools. If you watch where the edge contacts the wood, you are actually using the gouge in much the same way as the skew
Thanks Joseph, I appreciate it!
Kewl little beginner project thanks for sharing well done Sir
Thank you Rich, I appreciate it!
thanks for sharing be safe i watch all your videos
Thank you Larry I really appreciate that! You be safe as well!
Awesome as always 👍👍👍
Thank so much Rob, I appreciate it!
Second vid I've watched since finding this channel. I'm really liking the "real time" of your vids, and your narration.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you Raven, the longer more complicated projects I do speed up as no one would watch something that is as long as they take to make. I appreciate you watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman I do a different kind of wood working, but I truly understand the time it takes.

Great little video for 'quick & nasty' easy money makers. Your skew work has come a long way since you 1st said you were going to work on it.
Perhaps a side Angle shot showing the the angle of the skew to the work piece might help some of those just starting to use a skew.
Thanks Peter, I have not gotten much practice time lately and the wand I’m making in tomorrow’s video certainly shows it! I appreciate you watching!
Thanks for the vid! Subscribed.
Thanks Rich, welcome aboard, I appreciate it!
Lewis, applause for helping others out again. That's gotta help immensely. The skew...I could see me, if I could use a lathe, using this tool for everything, along with the big negative rake scraper. I think the gouges look hard to learn 😥. Anyway, I was at work so missed your show. Thank you for sharing your time with us. Stay safe, Vickie
Thank you Vickie. The skew is by far harder to master than gouges trust me on that! I appreciate you watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman whatever giggle giggle
Nice job using the devils fingernail. Nice design on the honey dipper.
Thank you James! Great name for the skew! Thank you for watching!
(edited - something happened to the rest of what I wrote.)
I appreciate the tutorials on what sells. Pieces that are monuments to the turners are nice but don't sell easily. I really enjoy turning stuff that people use and seeing what other people make.
A little coaching, if I may (delete if not appropriate). Those shearing cuts you did at 13:02 and 13:40 and elsewhere had me wincing in my chair. You got lucky on more than one occasion. The 'trick' with the skew is to keep an eye on where the blade is contacting the wood and where the tool is contacting the tool rest. You have to keep the blade contact outside of where the tool rest contact is (to the short point or bottom of the skew). If you draw a perpendicular line from the tool rest contact point to the wood at 13:40, you can see the blade is contacting the wood to the left of that line. That is how BAD catches happen. For that cut there, keep the blade contact to the left of the line (from the camera perspective). For cuts going in the other direction, keep the blade contact point to the right (from the camera perspective).
The skew is an amazing chisel to use. It can make finishing cuts that don't need sanding. Keep at it and please keep the videos coming.
Thanks Tim, I appreciate the coaching! Before this video I’ve had about 4-5 hours practice with the skew in total other than using it as a negative rake scraper! I appreciate you watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman And my first attempt at hollowing the other day resulted in breaking the tenon off flush with the base and pitching the pot across the shop - and I've been turning (mostly lace bobbins) for 20+ years. We're all students.
Never stop learning I agree
Very enjoyable and educational videos to me as a new turner. Looking for ways to fund my new hobby by selling at Farmer's Markets and craft fairs and these will now be added. Up to now, all of my turning are given as presents.
I am quickly learning that this is just like my other hobby of kayak fishing in that there is always something new to buy from materials, tools, blanks and other shop equipment.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you John! I think you will find as you get farther into turning that this will go way past Kayak fishing when it comes to gear! Thank you for watching!
Nice quick project!
Years ago at our turning club in Ottawa, we had guest turner Alan Lacer who is a wizard with the skew, I bought his DVD and will be watching it for 3rd time to convince myself not to be afraid of the skew!
You should check him out
Thank you Serge, I have watched lots of Alan on CZcams, he is very good. I appreciate you watching!
That's a great way to use scraps of hardwood,exsalent,,
Thank you Simon, I appreciate you watching!
I liked the designs. I am having the same problem as you with the skew / catches / LOL / I think that is because one side has a burr and the other doesn't. (I am still working on sharpening skills) Great video, thanks for sharing.
Hey Curtis, the burr won’t catch you but the wrong presentation will for sure. Thank a lot for watchinf
i just got my lathe put together and cant wait to get my hands on some wood to get started!
That is exciting! Be safe and enjoy! Thank you for watching
I think I'm a first time viewer. Good content and discussion and pleasing music. Subscribed.
Thank you Graeme! I appreciate it! Welcome aboard!
Sweet dippers Lewis!! I need skew work also!!
Thanks Bruce! It is a beast to tame! I appreciate you watching buddy!
They turned out great. Pun intended. I will give that a go. Just dug my lathe out... Spring clean lol. I dont use it much but want to learn.
Cheers
Thank you, I appreciate it! Enjoy your lathe!
great video Klondike!
Thank you Bailey, I appreciate it buddy!
Great video, Lewis. I've used a skew a few times without any major catches but I never feel comfortable with it. Well done.
Thank you David. It is a hard tool to master for certain! I appreciate you watching!
Very nice, I could sense the tension with the skew at times! But you nailed it!
Very relaxing too👍
There was tension! Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!
Great video! If you loop a piece of string in each groove and pull tight you can burn them to darken. It's quick and easy way to add contrast. Just don't wrap the string around your fingers in case it somehow catches.
Thanks Tim, not sure if that would leave black in the honey or not? I appreciate you watching!
Good stuff!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
For someone who claims he isnt good with a scew, i think you did pretty well. Yes, it does take alot more consentration and time for guys like you and me apose to professionals like Steve Jones and Robbo Robertson. All in all i think this was a great video. Well done Lewis 😁👍🏼👏🇿🇦
Thanks Japie, I appreciate it buddy!
Your videos are very interesting and informative. Easy to understand. I like it better when you talk more through the videos. It helps me with your process. Thank you. Great channel. I enjoy it very much. Roger D.
Thanks Roger! I get some grief for talking too much from some. I appreciate you watching.
I’m a new lathe owner. I enjoy your videos. Adding lathe speed info with your narration would be a great help. I know it’s something I should know but everyone uses different speeds so it’s good information. Thanks and nice work
Thanks Trent, I pay very little attention to the number actually. What I do is turn the speed up until it starts to vibrate and then back off slightly. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
Man keep up.the good work 💪
Thank you, I appreciate it!
I've always applied a beeswax mineral oil to mine...but I like the idea of just tossing them in a tub of mineral oil.
My bee guy just sent me some “board butter” to try. That should be interesting. Thank you for watching buddy!
I was transfixed partly because the wood didn't look like it was moving after you took off the corners. And the music was really relaxing. Well done Klondike for mastering that evil chisel. Best regards.
Thank you John, I am far from a master and more of a survivor in this case! Thank you for watching. I appreciate it.
John, the skew isn't evil - it's just a badass that doesn't behave like the gouges and lets you know that when you try to treat like one. :-)
That’s funny and true!
@@TimJohnsonBizNet3 Yeah, you're right. After 20 years all I can do is plane a flattish cylinder with it, never mind rolling a bead. Mabye I should persevere, it does leave a nice surface finish.
First, Thank you so much for these videos!
Seeing them done in real time allows me to see where I go way to fast! And (ugh!) the skew....maybe the most misunderstood and underused turning tool, but it is scary!
I feared the skew for far too long. I finally made myself use it and spent a month turning tops with only a skew. It was exciting for a while but once I got the hang of it I was very happy with the speed and finish I could get. It's a great tool just takes time and practice.
Thank you Laurie, sometime the quality of cut you get going a bit slower ends up saving you time in the end. I appreciate you watching!
It is the most challenging but also the most fun I find. Thanks for watching James.
Great video, as a beekeeper I try to have some honey dippers available to sell with our honey. I tend to use a parting tool to make the grooves. I have found I like to make them wide enough so that the honey will release from the grooves. (A little more than an 1/8 inch wide to get a decent serving of honey to spread on my bread.) Of course the width to allow honey to release probably is affected by how warm your honey is. Will have to try v grooves just to see how well they work. I know some people buy them by how pleasing to the eye they are and personally I think a tighter groove looks better, but I want people to appreciate the usefulness of the dipper as well.
Hey Ken! You are correct, some people are more about the look. I just make whatever looks good to me as they will all work, just some will work better. Thanks for watching!
Nice job with the skew! I tend to make large quantities of designer firewood just by looking at my skew. 😳
Thanks Dave, you saw the picture of my designer fire wood! It takes practice for sure. Thanks for watching!
H
Dave I have 40 years of fire wood due to the skew
@@benrumler7129 wow - i was watch this and thinking I need to try the skew - I have not used one yet
Love the "designer firewood," just starting turning but ive already got a great collection. Fun though, aint it!
They are so cute 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you J’Lyssa! I really appreciate you watching !
You are inspiring me to consider taking up lathing. Your videos are easy to watch.
As like other woodworkers, do you have a essential start up tool list? Would make an interesting video
I haven’t done that yet but I really should. Thank you Gordon!
really good video , but only good use for the skews is opening paint tins.must try making them, all 2 project before ive made love them.
Thanks Ian, I haven’t used it to open any cans yet but who know what the future holds! Haha. Thanks for watching buddy!
it is cool .
Thank you Ahron, I appreciate you watching!
Good little project, especially if someone else will sell them for you!
Thank you David, and yes someone else doing the selling is a bonus! I appreciate you watching!
I got some use out of my skew by regrinding it into a negative rake scraper(bown turner too)
Haha, before this video and the practice making these that’s all I used mine for as well. Maybe a couple cuts on a birdhouse last week. Thanks for watching!
i also turnes one of these with a skew, and if I recorded it, the sound would have needed to be off or i would have been kicked off youtub for unsportsman ship.....Nicely done.
It is challenging! Thanks for watching Daniel, I appreciate it!
Will share a trick I learned from another turner. Cut two lines, then cut the third in between. You will get very accurate spacing that way. I too am practicing more with the skew. Can do several types of cuts now with it, but two are still in need of more practice!
It is a fun tool to use but takes a lot of practice. Thank you for watching Valerie!
Another awesome video. Thank you so much for sharing. You have some amazing talent. I was curious after seeing the first piece with you using a bowl gouge. The angle on the gouge looked like a bowl “bottom feeder” and quite steep. Is it like a 40 degree? I wouldn’t have had thought to use a bowl gouge until I saw this video but you make it look easy! 🙏
Thank you Jeanie! My bowl gouge is between 40-45 degrees yes. Thank you for watching!
Practice makes perfect the more you do it the better you get doesn’t make any difference what you do rebuilding transmissions determining what balls have a good day
True enough! Thank you for watching!
Thank you Lewis for inspiring us. At least I am not alone at being intimidated by the skew, but you give a glimmer of hope! Question: Are there any common woods we should stay away from using?
Thank you! I wouldn’t use some of the exotics like paduak as it tends to bleed but maple, birch etc are fine. Thank you for watching!
thumb down - no way,. Excellent job!
Thank you!
This reminds me of a fishing trip my Dad and older Cousin took. I was on the bank carving on a stick with my pocket knife. My cousin said, You want me to tell you how to carve a rabbit? You take that stick and cut everything on it that doesn't look like a rabbit!
Haha great story Jack. I have zero carving skills! Thank you for watching!
As a beekeeper and a Turner I'd like to see you cut the grooves square all to the same depth while it's still a cylinder. Then form the bulb. Otherwise it's the nicest honey dipper I've ever seen.
Thank you David, If I cut groves that way, how deep and wide would they be while still a cylinder? Please let me know and I will make one that way to test. I appreciate it!
Beautiful. you didn't say what you finished them with. I appreciate your video as it gives me more selable articles to make on my lathe.
These were finished with mineral oil. Thank you for watching!
I enjoyed your video so much. Seeing the different shapes was inspiring. Did you seal them or leave raw?
Thank you Jeneifer, I put mineral oil on them. Thanks for watching!
Bowl turner!!
I knew what you meant.
Missed the Premiere again, Lewis. You have to stop doing these when I'm turning or editing the video!! LOL! Nice honey dippers, buddy. With a little practice I'm sure you will learn to love the skew. The first time I tried using one I almost had to go change my underwear because I got an epic catch almost immediately. I stuck the skew in a drawer and thought I would never touch it again. Being stubborn, I took it out a few days later and forced myself to learn how to use it. I'm still not an expert but I really like using it anyway. Great video, my friend. How is the house coming along?
Take care,
.....Gord
Thank you Gord, Ill need my people to speak with your people in regards to scheduling! I appreciate you watching buddy! The skew is an unforgiving beast! House is on a brief hold as I need some better, (warmer), weather! Hope you are keeping well, been watching for your next video!
I enjoy the background music and instruction. Don't change. Very informative.
Thank you Jeremy, I appreciate it!
Great tutorial. How fast is that wood spinning? That’s something I can’t quite seem to grasp is appropriate speed for what I’m turning.
Thank you Calvin. This was at 2000rpm. Thank you for watching!
Very cool. And I liked your choice of music as well.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
What is the grind on the bowl gouge you used on the first part of this video? I enjoy this series and will be watching more of your videos in the future.
That is a 40 degree traditional grind done on a wolverine jig and 8" CBN wheel. Thank for watching Jack!
Really enjoying your content...I like them all but I assume it is called beading onbthe business end with the one you made with the skew seems like the honey would flow better and easier to clean...
Thanks you! They are quite similar actually. I have had bee keepers ask me to make them with straight in guts like you would make with a parting tool. Thanks for watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman interesting maybe the channels hold the honey better..
I really like this project. I am going to try this one. What are the dimensions of your honey dippers?? I have made a couple of the vases out of some green logs. They turned out fairly good. One of them I gave to my neighbors as a house warming gift. I put a glass bottle in the hole I drilled in the top. I got the bottle from Hobby Lobby, it had a lid on it but I took it off. I put in some artificial flowers in the vase for my neighbors. Thanks in advance.
Hey Delmer, They are about 8" long and the dipper diameter is between 3/4-7/8" but you can do whatever looks good to your eye. Thank you for watching!
Hey I’m semi new to wood turning. I played around a lot growing up with my grandfathers lathe. He passed away and left me all his shop tools including the lathe. I have a large set of knives and chisels. Is there any particular way to sharpen the bowl gouge and others shaped like it? Any info would be appreciated. Great video, I’m really loving your videos and I can’t wait to try some of your projects
Thank you Jacob! I use a Wolverine jig which is inexpensive and easy and has always worked well for me. There are lots of videos out there but I will add a clip of sharpening that soon. Keep watching!

Are there any that you avoid?
Thank you Guy. I use close grain woods, maple, birch, cherry and the like. Avoid woods like oak, ash, paduak as they are porous. Thanks for watching!
This is great, inspiring. I am soon to gain a lathe and would love to do this. Can you tell me where I can purchase the knoives/tools you sue to carve with??? and any other attachemnts I may need? Thanks
Thank you Steven, I appreciate you watching! Where you live will determine where is best to buy. What country are you in?

Also, I just got my lathe. I now need to learn how to use it. Do you plan of doing a tutorial on basic lathe use/ set up???
Nice work! You make it look effortless 😎
Approx what rpm is it running?
Do you or anyone commenting here know the reason/principal behind the shape of the honey dipper?
Thank you Dwight, it is running around 1900rpm. I think that shape picks up and runs off honey well. Thanks for watching!
Well done on your scew ..... practice makes perfect and its a good piece to practice on! The question is ....as its your first...... do you keep it , gift it to someone close or still pop it in the sell pile?!😁
Thank you Terrie, I will keep the first one. Thank you for watching!
I have my own honey bees so will have to do some of these what speed did to turn them at
Hey Roy, 1900 RPM. Thanks for watching!
They look good. Do they work.
Thanks David, they do work great. I have a friend who sells honey that loves them. Thanks for watching!
I've turned a half dozen of these before my last show. Nobody knew what they were.
Maybe a sign on them or put one into a jar of honey as a demo? They are popular here. Thank you for watching Dennis, I appreciate it!
Great videos! Can you recommend a good lathe and what tools you use? I was pretty good at turning "back in the day". All the machines I've seen lately look like cheap junk and are over priced.
Thank you Rodney, I have owned this lathe since it was new in the mid 1990s. Unfortunately they don’t make these anymore. Having said that I’ve not used any others to be able to say which is good or bad. Ideally You want 2hp minimum, variable speed, reversible. Those would be my base considerations. I have a mix of tool brands. Hamlet, Record, Carter and sons and my carbides are Easywood tools. All of those brands are quality that I can speak to. There are many more good quality brands that I have not used. Thanks for watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman The influx of Chinese junk has made it difficult to identify a good machine (of any kind), but I'll find something. My family owned a high-end cabinet shop in the 70's and early 80's. There is no comparison between those old machines to today's junk.
I hear good things about Powermatic and Robust if you are in the USA but I’ve never used either. Possibly the robust is made in the US.
What size chuck and type are you using on your headstock as I am just now starting out to Lathe turning.?
I’m not using a chuck on these Curtis, they are just turned between centres. When I do use chucks I have a Vicmarc 100 and a 120. Thank you for watching!
So is the honey dipper supposed to be left in the honey jar between uses? And does the finished dipper size matter?
I would leave it in yes. The size only affects how much honey you get at a time. It can be whatever you prefer.
Whats the grind angle on your gouge. It seems steep?
It is 40-45 degrees. Thanks for watching!
What type of camera do you use?Thanks
I use a canon DSLR, thank you for watching!
Question (if I may) why use mineral oil instead of olive oil or lindseed or boiled lindseed oil. ‘Petrochemical’ oil and these items do not correspond as far as I go. Definetively a thumbs up from The Netherlands.
Thanks Nico, Mineral oil is food safe in an application like this and will not go rancid like olive oil, that is why I and most people use it on wooden kitchen items like these and cutting boards. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
love to learn vut looks difficult ^^
The skew is difficult to learn but the project is easy. Thank you for watching!
Sells at what price in which type of market? Thanks.
In the $8 range. Craft sales, farmers markets, gift shops, places like that.
What's a good why too market your woodturning . I got Esty
Thanks for watching Jeffery, I appreciate it!
Me and my skew have a love hate relationship
Ive got 4-5 hours in with mine so far and it could go either way! Thank you for watching!
