COOL! Twisted Tangent Staves Wood Turning

Today I glue up some staves that do not line up in the middle.
Staves are similar to segments. It is all about grain direction.
Making a glue up with segments or staves that do not line up in the middle can make an interesting look.
They are glued up tangent to a larger diameter on top and a smaller one on the bottom.
The idea came from an article in a American Wood Turner magazine

How I use abrasive paste:

Tools Used:
Robert Sorby bowl gouges
Negative Rake Scrapers
Parting tool
Dovetail tool

Finishes used:
Minwax lacquer sanding sealer
Deft Spray lacquer
Acks Abrasive Paste and Polish/Restoring Paste

Turned two bowls and amazed at the results. Perfect 12 degree wedges don't seem to be critical. They all smoosch together and adhere. the cables don't work well but rubberbands seem to do the trick. A great product and great video

Been watching wood turning vids for a few nights now and that bowl is one of the best I've seen...brilliant :)

I’m sorry, I could only press the like button once. This one deserves several!

[JohnHoatson-pqkk]

What a clever idea. I am surprised you used a spray finish rather than a rub on finish. But. A very nice bowl from what could be offcuts. Well done. JC.

Gary, thank you for posting this video, I can only think of one word to describe this bowl “magnificent” even that doesn’t do it justice. Ian

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS FOR AN EXPERIMENT ❤️🤗❤️🙏

I have already closure that you are a magnificent teacher, Gary. Now I’m quite convinced that you are also a bona fide genius. That is absolutely beautiful, my friend. I’m sure there will be many turners grabbing this idea. This video is a winner in every way, buddy. Thanks for sharing. You really do have remarkable knowledge! 👍👍👍😃😃🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Happy turning,

They just keep getting better, Gary! Amazing to me how you figured out the angles of each piece and the cone center, but you did and it came out to perfection! Nice job of turning and a great design to the overall shape. Really well done, my friend!

Fantastic technique and it didnt look too hard. Had to try for my self and got pretty satisfyed. Many parts to fit. Next time I Will use a slower glue🙃

[scottsimpey]

Wow Gary that is just so gorgeous. I really appreciate how you show every step in how you make your unique segmented pieces such as this one as well as others that you’ve done and how you explain why and how you are doing certain things. This is certainly something that I will have got to try. Magnificent work and great video.

[ACKSWOODPASTE]

Wow Gary, your work is amazing!! You should submit this to AAW magazine, I bet they show it in the magazine. Thank you so much using the lacquer and using our paste in a different manner, we appreciate everything yo do for us!!!

[markault]

Very Very Nice...! Excellent step by step video, you made it almost look easy. lol
Thank you!

[gaynorreynolds]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I am going to try this.

[jarmstrong]

Ya never cease to amaze me, Gary! That is a really neat wood turning. You provide me with so much food for thought on what I would like to do in turning wood.👍👍👍👍👍

[frankmusumeci]

your a master, mate. you would be a fantastic teacher

[markbahlke]

That is completely amazing!! **Stands up on chair applauding** I have been waiting to see how something like this is done. Ever since I started watching segmented bowl videos, I knew something like this was possible, I just couldn't figure out how. You have not only showed how, you showed how easy it is to get a result like that. I can't wait to try it out myself. The only question I have is what is the angle of the cone you used for the center plug? Seems like that would be a critical dimension. Awesome Gary! You have outdone yourself again. And that is not an easy accomplishment. Thank you very much.

I am so very impressed! I was inspired by your video on the triple axis turning and I tried that today. I'm relatively new to turning and I'm using a mini lathe made for pens and such. But I was able to follow your instructions and mathematics. It's not perfect but still nice considering. I can't wait to upgrade to a bigger lathe and try a bowl like this one. Great job!!!
