Welcome to my channel, I started woodworking with my grandfather as a young boy. I continued woodworking through high school, and started woodturning after seeing a turned project in a friends shop. Some of my fondest memories are working with my grandfather in his wood shop. Being able to share our passion for woodturning and woodworking, ties it all together.

I turned this Yo-Yo on the lathe for the Scrap Bin Challenge. I made the Yo-Yo out of padauk, Walnut, and Maple.

Beautiful Yo-Yo! There are few things in life as satisfying as a yo-yo that returns...

The great thing about being a turner is what everyone else considers scraps is our stock.

Such a classic toy. Very elegant look Carl.

[SteveCarmichael]

Very nice yo-yo Carl.  That puts those plastic Duncan yo-yo's I had as a kid to shame.  You and Ted are bringing me back to my childhood today.  I need to try turning one of those.

[AdventuresInDIY]

Turned out beautiful!  The color contrast with the different woods really makes it pop.  Thanks for sharing.
