Take care

I have been searching for videos instructions how to turn a lidded box. Yours is the best. So glad I found this.

I lol'd out loud when you said "you're wrong." Great vid Marc!

You're *exactly* right about carbide tools, Marc. When I first started turning, all I used was carbide. I slowly started using my HSS tools as time went on, and today, I use both equally, depending on what I'm trying to do. Neither is "better" than the other, it all depends on what you're trying to do.

Marc -- It's nice to see you try a turned project. For those of us with limited time and space, turning can be the perfect way to enjoy woodworking as a hobby. In general, the projects take much less time and space to complete. As an experienced turner, I have no objections to using carbide tools. Sometimes they're a better option than traditional tools. I have both kinds of tools in my shop and use whichever gets the job done.

Great video! I had the experience you spoke of on your video a few months ago. I started turning pens so I bought a cheap HF lathe and some carbide tools. After turning over 30 pens I decided to turn a bowl. In the middle of the project I decided to join the local woodturning club. I was offered a "mentor" which I gladly accepted. I got the chief mentor who after inviting me to his place told me my lathe was "sh*t" and my tools were "worthless scrapers" and until I bought a "real lathe & real tools" there was nothing he could do for me. I finished my bowl on my own, then made rings, boxes, and for Mother's Day I turned my wife tulips and a vase. All with my worthless tools and YouTube video. I did upgrade my lathe because I wanted a bigger one. Needless to say I never attended another club meeting.

I have always admired people who know how to work wood to art! Thank you for sharing this and the way you technically make these beautiful creations! Grazie! Mirko

My wife got me a Qalo ring for Christmas because I never wear mine at work for safety reasons. They are great rings. Absolutely an awesome buy. Oh and your box and video turned out great too Marc.

Nice! I've not felt drawn to a lathe, but this project makes the idea less intimidating. Thanks, Marc!

"You're wrong..."
That's right!!! Listen to the Whisperer... He knows all!!!

Haha! I was just thinking this morning "Does Marc do turning? I don't remember any turning videos from him..." Sweet! And I like how you keep it real and mentioned you had to give yourself a refresher since you don't do it that much. The end product was cool too!

Sweet project Marc. I'd like to eventually get a lathe and when that time comes, I'd likely go with the EZ tools. - Jim

Nice job. I like seeing your first attempts and how you came to the final design. Way to stick it to the haters and use the EZ Wood tools.
