Woodturning my Nemesis, Holly

Wood Turning Holly has always been problematic for me, it is a curse that has followed me for over thirty years but I still keep trying. Eventually I will get a not cracked bowl. As per a request I show the vacuum chuck and how to use it and have a new toy to play with.

Irish Woodturning Facebook Group:   / 2203346810023108   Wood turning can be a dangerous hobby. My videos show my methods of turning and if you do not feel comfortable with my methods please do not copy them but rather use a method you feel comfortable using. Your safety is your responsibility as is the safety in your workshop. Enjoy the videos, hopefully something inspires you or helps you along the way. Irish woodturning is a craft that is dying out and should be preserved so that the tradition of Wood turning in Ireland stays alive and well.
