  • #sponsored Thanks to Krazy Glue for sponsoring this video. For your own projects, Krazy Glue Wood Glue will be available in the craft section of Walmart or online at Amazon! www.amazon.com/Krazy-Glue-206...
    Here’s how I make a spherical wooden box from start to finish. This box features an ebony handle, and a secret ebony finial on the inside! ! I'll be making the body of the box from local Bradford Pear wood. I'll show how I plan out the box and create templates, and how I use these templates to cut the piece accurately. I'll also show what you can do if you accidentally mismatch the inside and outside of the box. I'll show how you can quickly and easily use Krazy Glue fast drying wood glue to attach the finials. Thanks for watching!

    Fantastic to see a woman doing woodturning on CZcams! I'm also on CZcams, but I'm making wooden toys 😊.
    That's a beautiful special box!

    I have viewed a few of your videos Ashley over a period of time but never used to be able to find many. I love the strength of some of your videos & then there are the more delicate ones. The fine craftsmanship of your finial work is a joy to behold. I am not a woodturner but a disabled, retired Senior Master of Art teaching in South Australia so my viewing of the many woodturning videos that I watch, is from the 'Eye of the Artist'. Your work shows your considerable artistic talents & I will be watching your videos as I come across them. Lovely project here & lovely skills. Cheers, Don.

    Wow, cutting the sphere freehand is an art of its own, and with such a slender stem. The way the grain matched up was perfect. Well done Ashley, watching your work keeps the rest of us novice turners inspired. Happy New Year.

    As a craftsman my two favorite sayings are 1) It’s not that craftsman don’t make mistakes, it’s their ability to recover from the mistakes that make them craftsman. and 2) You’ve never made a mistake until you’ve done something you can’t get out of. 😊🙃
    I absolutely love your work and your videos. You’re an inspiration to so many people. ♥️

  • @aname5938

    If you are concerned about movement you could consider boiling the piece to relieve stresses before the final finish. But I do not believe this is necessary. A most intriguing piece of Treen. I like your method. Well done.

    I'm loving the fact a woman has made a big impact in a world that was typically for men. I saw the very large tables you turned and was jumping up and down for you. Love your work. I'm 62 yrs old and was one of two girls, to be the first to take carpentry classes. I would love to have been you in those days. Love your work.

    • @MrKikoboy
      @MrKikoboy Před 4 lety

      There were quite a few ( better ) women wood turners before this ( I consider this T&A advert turning ) look at Hayley Mills, Betty Scarpino, Marilyn Campbell and quite a few others - they have been around for decades.....look up old AAW shows....I do give her props for showing how she screwed up tho....

    What an awesome project Ashley! I believe this is probably one of if not my favorite projects you have turned. I especially like the design modification. It just goes to show you are just like the rest of us and do occasionally make a "Happy accident".

  • @wcarlhepker4806
    @wcarlhepker4806 Před 4 lety +6

    When you got done, I was dying to see the lid in a view where I could see both the inside finial and the outside finial! I bet that looks like it is all one piece causing the mind to wonder how it could constrict going through the small hole and be bigger on both the inside and the out. Of course, we see how you did it but that view must be amazing! This is a very aesthetic piece. Thank you for showing us your process!

    The proportions are excellent and the lines all work together, crafty recovery from the miscalculation, l think some of those recoveries are what puts the "fun" in turning, (that is, when we can get away with them) Excellent work. Looking forward to seeing more, all the best.

    @alansimpson596 Před 4 lety +3

    Thank you so much, Ashley for another great video. I particularly liked your use of the large negative rake scraper. It's my best friend for taking out bumps and hollows on the inside of bowls - that's of course if I keep it super sharp and use a featherlight touch. What can I say about your finials? You are the number one in making them and have been for years.

    • @MrKikoboy
      @MrKikoboy Před 4 lety

      A "negative rake scraper" is just a curved skew - the edge will never hold up as long as a regular ( burr edge ) scraper - you can learn the same touch on that and achieve cleaner results ( especially if it is canted at 45.....) but people seem to be too impatient to develop technique....
