Welcome to this weeks woodturning video:
Woodturning - Something Very Different
In this woodworking video I use a woodturning lathe to turn a blank made with segmented plywood into a hand made stool.
When woodturning a piece I find it important to nibble away at it until I see what shape the wood wants to be, this is what is so enjoyable about woodturning. I feel my video's fall within the ASMR category.
If you find these videos entertaining I’d appreciate you like, share and subscribe.
Thanks for watching.

Jack, great job on that stool…great look. I have dabbled in woodworking over the years and now that I am retired, I decided to refit my workshop and get back to it. I also decided to add a lathe to my tool chest and already turned a couple of bowls and some handles for my chisel retrofit. Love the mallet…I built one using a 3 layer plywood plan…really useful. Working with wood is very relaxing for me.
Sounds great buddy. Do you make any video’s?
@@JackMackWoodturning No, I am very unconventional in my methods...it would take me longer to edit the video than to make the project...besides, so many can do it easier or faster than me, I just take my time and if I have to take the long way around the barn to get it done, then so be it. I take pics of the finished items to show people and if they are interested, I make it for them.
Again EXCELLENT friend, have a nice day !!!.
A stool, perhaps the simplest of work furniture here is now classic art. Luxuriously and beautifully overbuilt. Thanks!
Nice one Joe. Glad you enjoyed it. I reckon you will like my latest vid. kzhead.info/sun/bKdpocOOg4yom5s/bejne.html
So SWEET !!!!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. would you have this in your home?
@@JackMackWoodturning Absolutely !!
Can I afford it ???
Great work. I just love the patterns combined with the shape.
I don’t know how you dream up this stuff, but I’m sure we all are happy you do. Another cool project, thanks.
Nice one GSD. Much appreciated my friend 👍🏻😊
Makes me wish that I had equipment like this to make my own furniture.
Those are the hands of someone who knows how to get them dirty and honestly.
Such a beautiful, tactile, functional work of art. Than you for sharing this.
No sweat J. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing 🌷
No problem. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
I love the patterns in this thing. Amazing! 💪💪👍
God, that's beautiful.
You have created a very beautiful and unique product! Have a nice day!
Nice one DG. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
Not only does this look beautiful, it looks comfortable too, great work!
Thanks HB. It’s not bad. I have it in my workshop. I think you might like my new vid. kzhead.info/sun/bKdpocOOg4yom5s/bejne.html 😊👍🏻
Beautiful! Nice to see something that is solid wood with no acrylic added.
Absolutely the best lathe work I’ve seen on KZhead. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Beautiful and unique. I love how you matched the woods at the edges. Nice attention to detail
Thanks D, do you do any woodturning?
Hi Jack, that was "Different" what a cracker of a bar stool and nearly tartan as well amazing stuff!! Cheers Will.
Nice one Will. You made it back to Scotland yet?
What beautiful Work you do. I love to watch you work. Best stool I've seen. Very artistic woodworker, thanks for video.
Absolutely gorgeous patterns
ماشاءاللہ ۔دلیل کامل ہے۔اللہ پاک اجر عظیم عطا فرمائے ۔سبحان اللہ۔
🙏
Really stunning!!!!! Well done and thank you for posting.
No sweat P. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
This is not a craft, but work of high art! Interlaced patterns look unbelievable!
This is really quite astounding!
Just when I think you couldn’t possibly come up with something more creative than your last project, you do this. I bow to your skill sir.
Thanks bud.. So do we now think I can’t top this one ??
@@JackMackWoodturning You will. That's what makes it so fun.
No pressure then
😆
Simply gorgeous!
Thank you. Would you have it in your home
I've done plenty of block and strip lamination before, but that was way over the top! Wow!
Hope that means you enjoyed it T. Thanks for watching 👍🏻😊
@@JackMackWoodturning I did! I guess over the top can mean bad in another context.
without using nails or screws . good job.👍👍👍
I am trying day by day to make more nice wood products like you. You are doing very good job.
Just WOW!
Thanks 😉
Your work every time is museum quality- true genius!
Thanks T. Much appreciated. You know any good museums?
@@JackMackWoodturning Afraid nothing in Eastern WA comes to mind -I'll try to research a bit and will forward if I find something.
Really Beautiful product
Thanks A. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻🙏😊
The world of wood and wood... Thank you
No probs man. You going to give it a shot?
Absolutely stunning piece of work!
Yes sir
Nice one A. Much appreciated 😊👍🏻
This was the very first cut my turf has received since been laid (1 month) kzhead.infoUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Very happy with the product and delivery. Was cut at the highest setting, I Was able to cut upto the boundaries with ease with exception of the corners for obvious reasons. Very little loose grass left ad the box was large enough to hold everything garden size roughly 24m2. There was no assembly instructions with it, it's not difficult to put together, KZhead the item if your unsure. Would recommend for small gardens like myn.
People usually think of plywood as some cheap material used to slap things together quickly and on a budget, but this video shows that even this material can be beautiful.
I do wish ply was cheap.. this stuff is +£300 per sheet
@@JackMackWoodturning Maybe it's a regional thing. Here in the US, there are a lot more trees, so it would make sense for wood to be cheaper. Don't quote me on that; it's just a guess. The economic variances of the world lumber industry is not exactly my area of expertise.
This birch ply is made in north Russia.. as far as I know it is not manufactured in Canada which would be the only other place you’d fine birch forest. I hear from my friends In The us that ply has more than doubled in price in the last few months.. it’s almost doubled in price here in the uk.
@@JackMackWoodturning Economics is a very complicated field. I suppose I should correct myself and say that it WAS a cheap material once.
I don’t think you need to correct your self. What you said was accurate.. “people think” .. as I said, I wish it was. 😉👍🏻
Wow, just wow!!
You like ?
Awesome piece of work.. i love the way you create such masterpieces by using plywood.. It would make a great classical guitar stool.. Keep turning n post mooooore videos..
Thanks B. New video every Friday lunchtime buddy 👍🏻😊

I enjoy watching.
That looks like the prettiest plaid I've ever seen. I would almost be afraid to sit on it. It's so lovely
Nice one J. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
We really enjoyed seeing you. In addition to your carpentry skills, your design was the most interesting. We are waiting for your next arts.
Thanks for watching
Very nice stool and excellent work. Respect from U.S!
Thanks M. Much appreciated 👍🏻👏
BEAUTIFUL!!!
Hallo MaBu, Gutes und schönes Werkzeug. Der Laser ist beeindruckend. Alles Gute. Danke. LG Mehmet
Sorry I can’t translate this
Amazing. Love the mix of common and elegant, and the attention to detail is magnificent. Your skill definitely made this a work that was more than the sum of its parts.
Thanks TR. Much appreciated. What is your pic?
@@JackMackWoodturning I damn with faint praise. :) Pic is a doodle from a million years ago of a scuba diver encountering something they didn't expect.
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement kzhead.infoUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Primer ??
Beautiful 👏🏾👏🏾
Vous êtes un artiste
Magnificent, you are very talented at what you do.
Thank you. Would you have this in your home ?
@@JackMackWoodturning absolutely!!
Nice job, looks great!
Cheers Bruce. Would you have it in your home ?
As far as a stool I don't know that it gets any better than that.
Thanks Randal, much appreciated buddy, 😊👍🏻
My word. What a beautiful work of art. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks for the kind words.would you not use it as a stool ?
Damn great job 👏 I would not have the patience to cut up and put so many pieces together lol
It doesn’t take that long really. Worth the effort! 👍🏻😊
WOW . Your brain works different than most other people . That pattern is hard to believe yet there it is . Fantastic artistic and wood working skills . Thanks for sharing your vision with us.
No problem John. Thanks for watching buddy 😊👍🏻
A beautiful product from a master craftsman ❤️🇬🇧
Should be Jack "GobsMacked" Woodturning. AMAZING! Watching from the Philippines.
All I can say is......Damn he's good! Very talented. I would've used a table saw instead of the bandsaw 😂 but that's me. Great job!!
More than one way to skin a cat Mike haha 😊👍🏻 But… I did use a table saw … hmmm
Классная табуреточка,и я такую хочу.🤗🤗🤗
It may be for sale on my website next week 👍🏻😊
Mr. Jack, How do you come up with such beautiful and intricate designs? They are amazing and intriguing! I can’t stop looking at these items. Incredible work and many thanks for sharing your work with us.
Wow. Gorgeous!
Nice one M. Have you worked with ply?
@@JackMackWoodturning no I haven’t. But, I have a brilliant son in law who can do so much. Thx for sharing your talent! Blessings. 😎
A very cool and unique stool. I just came across your channel and subscribed. Nice work.
Thanks for the sub Michael. Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍🏻
Your woodturning pieces are magnificent! Would like to take a course for that.
Thanks. Have you done any wood urning
Well done. 👍
Much appreciated G. Thanks for watching 😊😉
It's awesome! Your videos are really good
We're not worthy! We're not worthy! Always fun to watch, plus the added enjoyment of getting another sneak peek at your arsenal of awesome tools i.e. automatic stop depth gauge on your drill press.
Thanks Will. Yeah it is a handy function 😊👍🏻
Belíssimo trabalho!👏👏👏😍😍😍
😊👍🏻
Wow, who knew that ply could be beautiful!
Sooooooo many people before me 😉
Thanks M. Where are you watching from?
ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING GORGEOUS
прекрасная работа
Thanks man 😊👍🏻
Butiful video
Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
EXCELLENT CAMERA ANGLES💯
Thanks Roberta. Much appreciated 😊👍🏻👌🏻
Didnt know multiplex could look so beautiful... nice idea
I didn’t know plywood was referred to as multiplex.. that’s got to be an American brand right ?
@@JackMackWoodturning I thought it was an international term, but it might be just a german thing, here we call veneer plywood made from very thin layers that is more than 12mm thick and has more than 5 layers multiplex, I guess just to differentiate it from other kinds of plywood... just plywood is a very broad term after all
Jack! Very, very nice man! The grain and pattern are fantastic.. I love that technique and what an awesome piece! I saw you used the custom mallet you made too. Very cool. 😁 You and the family be well man!
Thanks David.. aye I love that mallet,, perfect for a heavy th’whack! Have you made your own mallet ?
@@JackMackWoodturning ha.. Im just a business guy Jack. I don't have great skill like you man. I just enjoy your work!
I knew that mallet had to be homemade! I love it!!
Here’s the video of me making said mallet 👍🏻
kzhead.info/sun/fqyKY8OKhJ-ViqM/bejne.html
My Grandfather used this method making stools, tables, lamps etc back in the 1960's . I inherited several of these Heirloom items. I have a photo of him with his creations and Many Blue Ribbons from the Oregon State Fair back in the day. Great Work!!
Top 👍👍
Sounds like he was quite a guy. Did he pass on his skills?
Stunning! Very creative!
One word AMAZING !!!!!
Thanks terry 👍🏻
Just gorgeous!😍 Thank you for making that look easy...so we all know that it wasn't easy!😫☺️
It’s not hard. But I know what your saying. It takes a lot of practice. 👍🏻
@@JackMackWoodturning indeed, that's true for most things in this life.☺️
I was wondering what is the advantage of the 2 bottom braces attaching to the other 2 braces instead of to the legs? Is it stronger that way? Or is it so they are not staggered? This was really nice being able to see this build from beginning to end. I think I might be able to make a stool like this but I don't think I could drill the holes in the legs as precisely as needed (or perfectly like you have). I have watched you marking the center line for the holes several times. I have tried that in the past but have not known if I could trust my results. Your precision and confidence is impressive. I have such a long way to go.Thanks for spending the time to share this with everyone .
Hey. The lay out of the stretchers is purely aesthetic, If you’d like to make items like this the only piece of advice I would give you is to watch ALL of Curtis Buchanan KZhead channel. He is outstanding and he explains all you’ll ever need to know about chair making.
@@JackMackWoodturning Thank you. I took your advice and checked out his channel. Helpful.
Mesmerizing, beautiful stool and craftsmanship!
Thanks C. Have you seen ply used in this way before?
Beautiful.
Thanks RC 😊👍🏻
Very cool. I've been playing with some pattern plywood stuff. What are you finishing it with? I like how it kinda makes it pop.
Shellac sealer then Danish oil 😊👍🏻
Now, that IS one beautiful stool!! Takes your imagination into whole different directions. However, a quick question from a newbie in the craft: What is the purpose of the circular walnut insert in the underside? Is it an accent piece or does it somehow add to the strength of the project?
The recess was made to hold the piece to the chuck. I filled it to remove any sharp edges and add durability 😊👍🏻
😊👍
. .就
Very good stool
Thanks buddy. You going to make one ?
Mi auguro che questi preziosi artigiani col tempo non spariscano.
Sorry I have no way of translating this
That stool is so cool!! For such a simple idea, it came out looking so intricate & just amazing!! 😍. Also, I don’t mean to ask a stupid question, especially if this is *common knowledge*, but I am just learning/getting into woodworking & was curious about why you rubbed the lathed pieces w/ the shavings after? I kinda assumed it was for the oil or something, but I honestly don’t know & really wanna know all I can, lol. Sorry for bothering you w/ silly questions, lol. Thanks for sharing!!!! ☺️
Hey Felicia. Please don’t worry about asking questions, that’s what I’m here for and I’m more than happy to help and share my experience. That process is called burnishing. It can be done with wood shavings or with extra fine wire wood. It’s function is to add a final sheen to the wood after sanding. It goes back to days of bodgers making chair parts in the woods (but most likely way further back to the birth of turning) before we had extra fine grit sandpapers and other abrasives it was used straight after final cuts and softens the effects of burnishing caused by tool bevels. I personally find it adds a shine that looks more natural than sanding a piece to 1200 grit or higher. Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to comment questions on any on my videos. How long have you been woodworking for and what do you like to make ?
Simply beautiful...! It seems you have an intrinsic ability to slap blanks together and pull ALL of the wonder out of it! Enjoyed watching another fine video! Thanks for posting, and keep doing what you love! WWG1WGA
Nice one RL. Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍🏻
BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE💯♥❗
Many thanks 😊👍🏻👏
Who would think to use plywood in that way to make a truly unique pattern? Both this stool and the bowl I saw you make are outstanding.
Thanks buddy. I’m currently working on my best ply wood one yet . Video should be out soon. 👍🏻
@@JackMackWoodturning I look forward to watching you do that as do some of my work colleagues who watch your vids with me on my mobile. I'll stick to scratching on my violin while trying not to make it sound like my cat with its tail caught in your lathe. :)
Thank you.. I’m glad you and your work mates enjoy my videos.. do you play professionally?? I’m partial to some nice classical music in my AirPods while I work..
@@JackMackWoodturning Sorry no, not at all and never. I'm teaching myself how to play using books and KZhead vids. I paid for a few dozen lessons to get me started. I play stuff for my wife as she likes to listen but its mainly for my own enjoyment. Many, many hours alone practicing, sounds sad but I enjoy it. If you want to listen to a true master then I'd suggest Patrick Contreras. Bud, you have a real gift. I've watched lots of your vids and it seems you have a vision, you can see the finished product before you start. I also think you're left handed? In my experience, as a left handed engineer, left handed people are 50/50 in engineering roles and I've found thats also true in the creative section too.
Thanks man. That is an interesting fact. Violin is the hardest of all instruments to master. I admire your dedication. 😊👍🏻
Fantastic piece! I was wondering, what is the purpose of the central dark wood circular inlay on the bottom of the seat? I guess it's for construction stability since most users won't see it. Is there a risk the sitting surface could delaminate to its original pieces if you omit that inlay?
The recess provided a hold for the chuck. I filled it more to remove any sharp edges but it does add a little strength as well 👍🏻😊
@@JackMackWoodturning I too was wondering what was its point. I thought that you might inlay your signature/logo on it or something.🤔
It’s covering the recess that was there to hold the top on the chuck.
х
Why do you use the woodshavings after sanding? I've seen others do this as well and wondered why. Fantastic looking work.
This technique is called burnishing. It is a finishing technique 👍🏻😊
Excelente trabajo, sobre todo la combinación de madera de distintos tonos (colores), asimismo, las patas torneadas y los travesaños que guardan relación entre sí, CONGRATULACIONES
WONDERFULL!!!!
Nice one Angela. Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍🏻
Nice work! I was a tool maker for many years and I learned quickly to keep track of all my fingers. I am sure you know what you are doing but I question your hand position while turning. Looks a bit risky to me. Just saying,
Iv’e been doing this nearly 20 years and still have all my digits 😊
When specifically are you concerned? Is it when he's working on the legs and is "holding" the wood as it turns? I'm very inexperienced with wood working...my paternal grandfather passed away before he could teach me much. My dad has passion for it, but not nearly the skill grandpa had.
The dude doesn’t know what he’s talking about Fil.. I’m a professional experienced woodturner and I also used to teach woodturning.
As a devotee of the violin all these tools are scary
@@shelleyoxenhorn833 the only time you should be scared of the tools you work with is when you disrespect them because that's when they will bite you
