Yep, that's right, I cut my finger on the bandsaw, luckily it was very minor. Just a reminder to me not to rush, and to think before I do things.
Today's project is a cookie/biscuit pot. I had to save this piece of Ash when we were cutting the firewood last year, the markings are so striking! The body of the piece has been sanded to 10000 grit and finished with Danish Oil, Sanding sealer, and wood wax, the inside has been finished with a food-safe oil so my biscuits are safe 😉. The lid is made from Hard Maple and the handle is the world's most expensive and gorgeous wood, Snakewood (a first time turning on the channel!). Both parts of the lid were sanded to 10000 grit and finished with Danish oil, Sanding sealer and wood wax.
The piece is approximately 23 x 12cm
Let me know what you think about this piece! It is available on my website link below.

My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so. - Jak na to + styl
Beautiful wood, and a beautiful jar.
About the accident, you were lucky.
I was a bit careless on a table saw, and in a tenth of a second. I lost a middle finger, and the blade carved the joint on my index finger, so the surgeon operated it stiff.
Pardon me if I don´t express myself correctly, I am not used to write in English.
Greetings from Sweden!
Wood turning/ working is dangerous. I dropped an axe on my foot and ended up in A&E luckily no major damage or lost toes. But a message to everyone complacency is how we get hurt carelesnes and complacency is how we ended up having to leave this amazing hobby/ craft.
...the grain in this piece is just phenomenal!...
Be careful...I want to be able to enjoy next week's video...👍
Matt
in Australia we call that ripple effect that is caused by strain and pressure of weight where a branch connects to the trunk of a tree--Fiddleback, Beautiful wood and piece
Beautiful how those three woods go together so well. Very sweet cookie jar. Lovely.
Now that's a beautiful cookie jar
Lucky biscuits...I would love to have your bandsaw even if I might lose a finger or two.😃
Delicious inside and out!
Lovely cookie jar and watch your hands with the bandsaw!
That is nice
Beautiful Harry. Happens to all of us when you’re pushing on the wood and it suddenly releases, pushing your weight towards the blade. Be safe
That’s beautiful.
Wow, where the side branch came out left a beautyful ring. Really nice. Thanks. PS; please be careful.
Gorgeous!!
What a gorgeous cookie jar...love the combination of woods!
Glad you're okay and beautiful piece!
Attaboy Harry.
Beautiful cookie / biscuit pot. Depends on where you are from, to what you call it.
Please be careful of your fingers and hands. Love your videos.
Hi Harry my friend this is a magnificent and unique cookie jar, I love the snakewood finial on top of lid is a real gem. Well done turning this piece, glad you never hurt yourself to badly. Take care of yourself all the best Amanda xxxx
Harry, that is so beautiful.👍👍👏👏👏
Very nice, thank you for sharing!
lovely!
stunning piece of wood really nice cookie jar
Beautiful work!
Cheers Harry you doing wonderful job 👍 💯 thumbs-up
Your work is worthy of placement in museums! YES it is!
Same thing happened to me with the bandsaw went the full length of my index finger to the bone 🦴 easily done
Beautiful Harry, the button for the lid was like a jewel.
Stunning piece, made even better by the snakewood and the hobnobs!
Glad your cut wasn't too serious. The worst I've been hurt in the shop (to date!) has been using a hand drill and the band saw. They're comfortable, friendly tools that make you drop your guard, unlike the noisy router and terrifying table saw.
Really, really nice work Harry.
I nailed my finger a few times in a band saw. I worked in a stairbuilding factory. Only girl employed there. I love working with wood!
Only girl and she somehow managed to nail her hand.
Hopefully they were just nicks.
Teachable moments.
I love your cookie pot, it is most beautiful! I really like how the different woods complement each other, a job well done. Mmm I like your choice in cookies too. I want one! 😁👍👍
Good looking wood, well done.
I usually love watching your videos, that's why I subscribed to your channel. This one was all close-up shots. This type of video is very hard for me to watch because I wear progressive lenses. Too much of a good thing. Please consider this when making future videos. Love the piece, well done. 😎
Very beautiful cookie jar Harry and you did an excellent job turning it!!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Very nice. You did a great job!
A truly lovely finish.
Glad you are okay and a lovely little container.
Beautiful work
Thank you very much Roman! 😁👍 Have you seen my new art and design channel yet? www.youtube.com/@DesignedbyHS/videos
Beautiful piece of work.
Thank you very much Bernie! 😁😁👍
Hello my friend Harry! I am very sorry for the accident you had, but I think it was important that you show it in your video, as it reminds us that even the most experienced people have accidents too. I once broke my middle finger while turning wood. I almost lost the head of my finger, fortunately it was possible to save it, but it was a tremendous scare!
As for the piece, it was absurdly beautiful. Congratulations! Big hug.
By the burn marks on that roughed out wood, I'd say your band saw was blunt and possibly the reason for your little accident. Lovely end result though.
Спасибо. Успехов в творчестве
Instead of hollowing the wood inside through turning try to cut a log piece inside to the extent of making hollow so that you get a smaller piece to make another cup or jar..
who set the price?
Wow.
Very nice! Pretty woods, the combination looks good.
Your accident was horrible, lucky it wasn't worse. I've always been terrified of power tools of any kind. They scare the heck out of me.
Jolie Harry 👍 attention la scie à ruban des fois surprend 🧐 sinon très bonne vidéo bravo 👏👏
Thanks for sharing harry, I generally like your videos.
However you shouldn’t use a ( spindle) roughing gouge on cross grain work. During your turning of the lid, it was only for a few seconds though. At least I think that’s what I saw. Newbie turners can get wrong ideas from watching experienced turners.
Otherwise a very good box, simple and elegant .
I do hope that you used food safe finish though, there was no mention at all.
I always enjoy your videos, keep them coming.
Don’t mind me I’m the trainer at my local club and can’t help myself when I see dangerous stuff in videos.
Great work dude. 😃😃
I am curious; at about the 7:33 mark you are rubbing wood shavings on the piece while the lathe is turning. What is the purpose of this? I've seen other turners do it as well and haven't been able to decide what it accomplishes.
It is a technique to burnish the wood, i.e. polish it 👍
Good looking biscuit barrel, but try using push sticks, they work!
What type is it
that's a very nice bicky jar
What kind of wood is it. It’s gorgeous!
looks like plain ash
What is the name of THE MOST EXSPENSIVE WOOD in the world?? Im assuming its the knob??
А я бы там кофе хранил.
As a relatively experienced woodturner I was attracted by the title of the project 'The worlds most expensive wood' which I realise is a toss between Snakewood and Kingwood. As I watched the main body of the video I couldn't see anything that resembled these two woods. It was only at the end when he turned the knob that I could see it was Snakewood. I would have preferred the project if it had been described as 'Turning a lidded box with a Snakewood finial/knob'.
Go away
Newbie i used a band saw first time, with a teacher..
One i was scared, second. I think he did not give me enough safety rules.
I am not ready.
Not wood, but I was using a drill press and had chuck loosen up, and the 1/4 in thick aluminum went flying and tried to take my thumb off. Took 14 stitches, I highly don't recommend the process.
Beautiful Cookie jar!! ❤❤❤❤
You know better than to use your hands to push the wood like that Harry! You have tools for that! Sheesh!
But still using gloves
Snakewood... is that more expensive than Bog Oak?
Yes: good job. But why use gloves for woodturning?? I'm sure you perfectely know it's one of the most dangerous way to work...
Why so much waste given its the worlds most expensive wood ?
Lol @ trigger warnings
Why didn't you just slice off a piece of the original wood to make the lid. Would've been prettier considering the grain of the end product.
Cutting that second piece at about 1:07 you (once again) almost took your right index finger off. You seriously do NOT know band saw safety (or just don't care). Hey...they're your hands, so be my guest, but JEEZ.
Did he ever actually tell us what woods he used? Video got too boring for me to watch the whole thing
Hi I just watched it. No he didn't! but comment above said its snakewood. 😌🐦
He said in the description what all three woods he used were.
@@SuesOriginals thank you Sue! I should have expanded on "Project begins..." and theres the full description. 😌🐦🇨🇦
