Thanks Gord you must have the patience of a saint to make those feature rings so I'll call you Saint Gord from now on. Good job by the way and I enjoyed your video
That’s funny, Cliff. The only place I ever have patience is in my shop. I’m also a long way from a Saint!!! My wife would find both of those ideas hilarious. Glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Gord enjoyed this I was wondering how to do segmented bowels and fancy designed bowels I will check out your other videos as well I learned a lot with just this video
Gord, I have to say, your feature ring examples are the most informative on the internet. I bought the Ray Allen book and Malcolm Tibbets book and was still a little confused. But after watching your videos it cleared up so much. Thanks!
Thank you very much, Scott. I really appreciate that. I certainly do not consider myself in the same league as Ray Allen or Malcolm Tibbetts. Thank you for the kind words. Thanks for watching!
Gord, That was great video! I cant believe when I saw what you posted it was a lot like what I am posting this week as far as feature ring and triangles I love the sandpaper on glass idea! great samples at the end
Glad you liked them, Luie. Those are some of my wife's favorite pieces so it was nice of her to let me touch them again! LOL! Thanks for watching! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Very helpful, thanks. I was thinking near the end that I’d have to ask you how to cut the segment angles on taller feature rings and presto, you show a couple southwest designs that are very tall! Off to learn more, thanks for sharing,
That's a good instructional video Gord I like that.👍👍 I don't know, but I don't call this simple,🤔 for you this may be a beginner level, but I have rewound the video a few times to understand it. And whether you should use the ring with the triangles up or down depends on the rest of the design you are going to use it in. Cheers, Hans Stay safe and keep turning
Learned a lot from watching you show how you get your different shapes. Your other bowls you showed are awesome works of art and lots of Patience. Beautiful!!
Hello Nelson, It’s going to be a few months before I do another turning video. I have been undergoing chemotherapy for a few months now and will not be finished that until late February or early March. Then of course I have to take the time to recuperate from the chemotherapy. I’m sure I do have plenty of videos already recorded that you might enjoy. Thank you for the kind words, my friend. Stay well, …..Gord
I’m glad you liked it, Mike. I am very impatient with most things but segmented projects are an exception. I actually find it very relaxing. You won’t know until you try it, Mike. 🤔🤔 Thanks for watching! 😃😃👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you very much for a very informative video. I am impressed by many aspects, techniques and tips you demonstrate, but none more so than the shear superior level of patience. I’m hooked
Well they certainly asked the right guy when it comes to seg feature rings!! Was good to see you making another one, your the one that got me hooked on segmented rings. great to see you once again Gord!!
It's a good thing we have people like you around to explain things, Gord! It didn't help, you understand, my pea sized brain is full of a lifetime of useless information. Besides, I've already forgotten what I just learned from you but it was darned interesting while I was learning it and not half-bad as I was forgetting it! You are a great teacher! Well explained, easy to understand, clear photography. A really good video, my friend! Have a great evening! See ya next time! Phil
LOL! Someone once told me that I had a pea sized brain. I think he was just trying to suck up to me. I don’t believe you have that problem for a second, buddy. I have watched enough of your videos to know that you are a pretty darn good teacher yourself. I’m glad I didn’t bore you too badly! Thanks for watching, Phil. Take care of yourself and have a great night! Thanks for stopping by! 😃😃😃 .....Gord
Make a piece with two rings, one up, one down😉 Absolutely love your video format and your methods! I spend too much time on hold with doctor offices, I’m sure your background music from nine years ago can’t be worse than what the VA uses while you’re on hold 😂😉 Thanks, again for the great lessons and inspiration, Gord!
Two rings? Wish I had thought of that earlier. I might have to try that someday. Thanks for the input, David. Glad you liked it. 😃😃😃 Thanks for watching! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I watched all of the diamond vessel series and enjoyed it a ton! I don’t recall any production issues! Another great video Gord, excellent as always. Thanks for sharing and stay safe buddy!
Great tutorial Gord. Would you ever part with the final pieces (Indian blankets etc featured at the end)? Gotta love the roughing gouge surfing! All the best. Ray
Glad you liked it, Ray. Those are two of my wife’s favourite pieces so I couldn’t part with them even if I wanted to. That’s as close as I have ever come to surfing. LOL! Thanks for watching! .....Gord
Great explanation I have to try this one day the only segments I've ever done was gluing palette boards together thanks for sharing Gord keep turning stay safe👍👍👍👍
Thanks Gord, very well explained. I do a lot of segments and each time I learn more and more. This looks like you could easily convert into a sailboat. Thanks Again for a great video.l
Another good one Gord. Working with angles is one thing that throws a lot of people. I think you explained the process very well. I believe your other segmented videos cover the angle process quite well also. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
Thank you so much, Glen. I tried to make it easy to understand because you’re right, people do have problems with angles. I’m happy that you liked it. Thanks for watching! Stay safe and healthy, my friend.
As I made bigger and bigger over 20 inches in diameter segmented turnings I experienced the same issues of accuracy you struggled with . I bought a Noblex miter saw from Sweden , accurate to 2 arc seconds of angle , a bit fidelity to get everything setup perfectly , but once you have it dialed in the milling of your feedstock is the only differential error your going to experience. It’s so tight you just can rub the joint and not clamp it if you use PVA glue!
Wow, Pete, that sounds like quite a mitre saw. I have never heard of it before but will have to check it out. Thanks for the tip. Much appreciated. Thanks for watching!
There is always another way to do things in woodworking. If that works better for you, that's the way you should do it. I enjoy doing it this way. Thanks for your input!
Gord, that was quite enjoyable...I am anxious to watch the videos in your links. Also, would you happen to have a video or instructions on how you made your stop block...I really need one of those.
I’m glad you liked it, Carol. I don’t have a video but if you tell me where to send them I can send you photos. It’s not a difficult thing to make. Just let me know. Thanks for watching! Take care of yourself.
Just watched the video. You sand the edges of the halves. I customized my wedgie sled with longer bolts on the saw side. I remove the two angled fences then put the 1/2 ring on the sled with a fence on top to hold it. Use a colored marker on the ends and sneak up with the blade until the ends are flat. Only removing a fraction to get them to meet. I tried sanding but ended up rounding the ends so went to that method. Vic
That's a brilliant idea, Vic! I have done that in the past on a tablesaw sled but I think using the Wedgie Sled is a much better idea. Now, I hope I can remember that the next time I need to use the half-ring method for gluing up a ring. Thank you so much for the input! Much appreciated, my friend. Thanks for watching! Happy turning, .....Gord
Great video, Gord. Even though I don't do turning, I just had to watch to admire your woodworking skills in addition to hour amazing turning skills. There's that little guy goofing off again. Was he a proper social distance? Take care. Bill
I didn’t see him sneak in behind me. I noticed when I watched the video that he was not wearing a mask. Somebody better kick his butt real soon! LOL! Thanks for watching, Bill. .....Gord
Gord I love watching you make these segments it's something I haven't tried yet but maybe in the near future I will give it a go. Thanks for an amazing video yet again ps tell your better half I said hello and hope both of you are keeping safe and well 👍👍👍
Thank you, Gavin. My wife is flattered that you would include her. That’s very nice of you! I hope you have a good time when you get around to making some segmented work of your own. Thanks for watching! .....Gord
This was very informative and answered one question/problem/challange i have to do any segments at all. Great video Gord, i enjoyed it 😁👍🏼👏 PS: do not fall off of that roughing gouge 🤣
🤣😂🤣 It’s the only surfing I have ever done, Japie. Won’t be doing that again. Way too dangerous!! Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
That was a great video Gord. I loved every minute of it. What table saw do you have there? It sure is smooth sounding. I will say it again...you put out top notch videos even with that clown showing off surfing on a gouge LOL You know I loved that part as well. Gary
It must be the only surfing he has ever done. He looks a little unbalanced to me. LOL! I have a SawStop tablesaw, Gary. It’s one of my favourite tools aside from my lathe. I’m happy that you like the video, buddy. Thanks for watching! .....Gord
Is it a cabinet model? I have a Grizzly cabinet model with a 3hp and it is smooth but sounds like a freight train compared to yours. Something I bought used at a garage sale to replace my 1950 Craftsman that I could have made milk shakes on LOL. Well it wasn't all that bad.
Yes, it’s a cabinet model. 3HP with a 52” rip capacity. I LOVE this tablesaw!! I worked for KMS Tools (Red Deer) for two years before retiring because they let their employees buy tools at cost. I really wanted that tablesaw! LOL!
Gord, I think that series on segmented turning is the very best on You-Tube. It is the one I used to turn my first feature ring segmented bowl. Also, is there a way to add a photo to a You-Tube comment?
Thank you, Gary. That’s very high praise and much appreciated, my friend. I don’t know of any way to add a photo to a comment. Thanks for watching, Gary!
I was totally fascinated with watching you do this, but you left me back at the water fountain hahaha. I love watching segment stuff. But I get lost with the angles 😥. One question... will the angles be the same regardless of how large the ring is? Thanks for another great video Gord! Stay safe, Vickie
How is my favourite Wyoming lady, Vickie? Nice to hear from you. Yes, the angles remain the same regardless of the diameter of the ring. The only thing that changes is the length of the segments. Glad you liked the video, Vickie. Thanks for watching! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 .....Gord
@@GordonRock1 doing great here! Been hard going back to work after being off a year. Walmart offered job protected COVID leave up to a year. I took it and that's how I became acquainted with y'all on CZcams. I only do 3 days a week. Hope you and wife are both doing well!
Wow, what a great video (the music was great as well). What was the round thing that you used to glue up your project? The roughing gouge feature was pretty unique. Have that particular image as a feature ring. Lol
Now that would be a feature ring, Danny! LOL! I assume you’re referring to the hose clamps or what are known as gear clamps when you asked about the round thing used for glueing. Right?? Thanks for watching!!
Are you referring to the turntable or carousel? I have a video called Lathe-Driven Variable Speed Turntable that would explain what I originally built it for. It’s also very handy for glueing rings as I can rotate it to bring the segments around instead of trying to walk around the ring. If that’s not it give me the time that it shows up. Sorry, Danny, maybe I’m just being confused.
@@GordonRock1 it’s most likely the turntable. It was definitely useful when you were gluing the two halves together. You aren’t confused, I just have a difficult time explaining myself sometimes. Thanks for being such an inspiration.
I've only recently gotten interested in wood turning (other than a lamp I made in high school in 1965) and segmented turning in particular. And I've just discovered your channel ! Oh My do you have an enormous amount of content.....I've watched a couple and gotta say along with so many other comments - your videos and explanations are just excellent ! One question, your' stop blocks on the table saw, are these homemade or bought ? They appear to slide in the channel and adjust easily. Could you shed a little light on how you made them or where you may have bought ?! Very much appreciated. Oh...math, dang this is gonna be my potential downfall, although in one video you said the miter gauge was at 90 degrees and turning it to 30 gave you a 60 degree angle. My brain said OH, 90 - 30 = 60. So maybe I'll survive after all.
Thank you for the kind words, Dan. Yes, the stop block used on the tablesaw is homemade. The runner that fits in the channel was cut slightly oversize on the tablesaw and then I used my drum sander to fine-tune it so that it fit perfectly. If you would like a better explanation of how I built it let me know and I will make a short video explaining it. There certainly are a lot of videos if you want to watch them all although some of the very old ones are not very good quality. I was learning how to create videos as I was doing it. I hope you will enjoy the ones you want to watch. I’m glad you discovered my channel, Dan. Thanks for watching! Happy turning, …..Gord
@@GordonRock1 - Yes indeed ! Making a video of how you made the stop block would be really helpful ! I belong to a community wood shop, they have great tools but not alot of jigs, and this could be a great addition. I recently discovered they have the Rockler Cross Cut Sled. I used it to make very accurate segment pieces, but it would have benefited with your stop block ! Thanks very much
I will try to put a video together in the next few days. I recently injured my back and the time I can spend in my shop is limited so it might take me some time. If you have subscribed to my channel and hit the notification bell you will be notified when I have it published. Thanks for your interest, Dan. Happy turning, .....Gord
As a beginner lathe turner, amazed - Your music was perfect.
Thank you so much, Nelson! I appreciate that very much! Thanks for watching!
Great Info. I've got to make an urn for my wife's aunt and this will be a great pattern. Thanks very much.
You are very welcome, Randy. Sorry for your loss, but I hope your wife will like the pattern.
Take care,
…..Gord
You are a good teacher, I hope to try a feature ring in the near future. Thank you for all your videos
My pleasure, Jim. I hope you will enjoy making a feature ring as much as I do. Thanks for watching!
Great teaching video Gord, can’t wait to see what you put it with. 👍🇺🇸
Glad you liked it, Cortland. I hope to have it ready soon. Thanks for watching! 😃😃👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Nice job on the feature ring. Good tip on waiting for the table saw blade to stop before proceeding. That’s true for the sliding miter saw too.
Glad you liked it, Greg. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Upright or upside down, beauty is in the eye of the beholder; do another ring and turn one up and the other down then decide. Great job.
Glad you liked it, Randy. Thanks for watching!

Your are a true artisan
You are too kind. Thanks for watching!
Tip from pro segmenter, use tightbond thick and quick, it dries fast and clear and will not run like other yellow glue.
I appreciate the tip. I still have lots to learn. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Gord! I'm still a new turner and haven't ventured into segments. This is great information for when I do. Thanks so much!!!
I’m happy that you like it, Garry. I hope it will be helpful in the future. Thanks for watching!
Good stuff, Gord!
Thank you very much, Billy!
When do you think you'll post another video..? As a beginning turner I am left in awe.
Hello Nelson,
It’s going to be a few months before I do another turning video. I have been undergoing chemotherapy for a few months now and will not be finished that until late February or early March. Then of course I have to take the time to recuperate from the chemotherapy. I’m sure I do have plenty of videos already recorded that you might enjoy. Thank you for the kind words, my friend.

Gord, I think that series on segmented turning is the very best on You-Tube. It is the one I used to turn my first feature ring segmented bowl.
Also, is there a way to add a photo to a You-Tube comment?
Thank you, Gary. That’s very high praise and much appreciated, my friend. I don’t know of any way to add a photo to a comment. Thanks for watching, Gary!
I was totally fascinated with watching you do this, but you left me back at the water fountain hahaha. I love watching segment stuff. But I get lost with the angles 😥. One question... will the angles be the same regardless of how large the ring is? Thanks for another great video Gord! Stay safe, Vickie
How is my favourite Wyoming lady, Vickie? Nice to hear from you. Yes, the angles remain the same regardless of the diameter of the ring. The only thing that changes is the length of the segments. Glad you liked the video, Vickie. Thanks for watching! 😃😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

@@GordonRock1 doing great here! Been hard going back to work after being off a year. Walmart offered job protected COVID leave up to a year. I took it and that's how I became acquainted with y'all on CZcams. I only do 3 days a week. Hope you and wife are both doing well!
We’re doing well thank you, Vickie. I’m sure going back to work must really suck! Stay safe and healthy!
@@GordonRock1 actually, being a people person, I was going crazy at home, alone, 24/7! Body just got used to recliner as opposed to standing/ walking
Wow, what a great video (the music was great as well). What was the round thing that you used to glue up your project? The roughing gouge feature was pretty unique. Have that particular image as a feature ring. Lol
Now that would be a feature ring, Danny! LOL! I assume you’re referring to the hose clamps or what are known as gear clamps when you asked about the round thing used for glueing. Right?? Thanks for watching!!
Towards the end of the video. The thing the two halves are glued.
Are you referring to the turntable or carousel? I have a video called Lathe-Driven Variable Speed Turntable that would explain what I originally built it for. It’s also very handy for glueing rings as I can rotate it to bring the segments around instead of trying to walk around the ring. If that’s not it give me the time that it shows up. Sorry, Danny, maybe I’m just being confused.
@@GordonRock1 it’s most likely the turntable. It was definitely useful when you were gluing the two halves together. You aren’t confused, I just have a difficult time explaining myself sometimes. Thanks for being such an inspiration.
The miter gauge you are using what brand is it
Lisa, it’s the JessEm MiteRExcel. I am very happy with it. Thanks for watching!
I've only recently gotten interested in wood turning (other than a lamp I made in high school in 1965) and segmented turning in particular. And I've just discovered your channel ! Oh My do you have an enormous amount of content.....I've watched a couple and gotta say along with so many other comments - your videos and explanations are just excellent !
One question, your' stop blocks on the table saw, are these homemade or bought ? They appear to slide in the channel and adjust easily. Could you shed a little light on how you made them or where you may have bought ?! Very much appreciated.
Oh...math, dang this is gonna be my potential downfall, although in one video you said the miter gauge was at 90 degrees and turning it to 30 gave you a 60 degree angle. My brain said OH, 90 - 30 = 60. So maybe I'll survive after all.
Thank you for the kind words, Dan. Yes, the stop block used on the tablesaw is homemade. The runner that fits in the channel was cut slightly oversize on the tablesaw and then I used my drum sander to fine-tune it so that it fit perfectly. If you would like a better explanation of how I built it let me know and I will make a short video explaining it. There certainly are a lot of videos if you want to watch them all although some of the very old ones are not very good quality. I was learning how to create videos as I was doing it. I hope you will enjoy the ones you want to watch. I’m glad you discovered my channel, Dan. Thanks for watching!
Happy turning,
…..Gord
@@GordonRock1 - Yes indeed ! Making a video of how you made the stop block would be really helpful ! I belong to a community wood shop, they have great tools but not alot of jigs, and this could be a great addition. I recently discovered they have the Rockler Cross Cut Sled. I used it to make very accurate segment pieces, but it would have benefited with your stop block ! Thanks very much
I will try to put a video together in the next few days. I recently injured my back and the time I can spend in my shop is limited so it might take me some time. If you have subscribed to my channel and hit the notification bell you will be notified when I have it published. Thanks for your interest, Dan.
Happy turning,

Too dangerous on the table saw. The reason for make a long strip. Then use the wedgie sled.
Okay!
