DEADLY to Turn, Stunning to See –Woodturning the Grass Tree Box Project

Video Description

In this video, I take on one of the most dangerous woods I've ever worked with. It’s rare, toxic, and not for the faint-hearted. But the results? You’ll have to see for yourself. Join me in the workshop as I turn this unusual material into something truly unique. Thanks for watching and feel free to leave comments in the chat below.

Every bit of support genuinely helps, and I’m truly grateful for it. _____________________________________________________________________ Northern Grit Abrasive Paste https://www.mikeholton.co.uk/northerngrit _____________________________________________________________________ My Grinding/Sharpening/Sanding and Finishing Record Power 8" Grinder: https://www.yandles.co.uk/record-power-8-bench-grinder-tool-sharpening-machine-with-40mm-whitestone/p8401?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAw6yuBhDrARIsACf94RXH_sfwEa2XW0NhXaUMd7xSCDpEAuo5OgIP6j6HfaWoGG-9zBW2QJwaAoPHEALw_wcB Pro Grind Sharpening System: https://amzn.to/4bOEYOb 2” sanding pads https://amzn.to/3N2zcR2 2” sanding discs https://amzn.to/3N2zcR2 Isopropyl Alcohol https://amzn.to/4psM14C Workshop Tissue https://amzn.to/3YlCnFV Howard Feed N Wax https://amzn.to/3LkdIyv Furniture Clinic Wood Wax and Polish https://amzn.to/4qc1K9i Brummer Wood Filler Black https://amzn.to/4q4KAdw _____________________________________________________________________ Let's Resin (10% Discount Code: MikeHolton) Canada: https://letsresin.ca/?ref=_O7uwU1QN4vDXg USA: https://letsresin.com/?ref=HWup7tfrn4PHXB&utm_source=goaffpro UK: https://letsresin.co.uk/?ref=_O7uwU1QN4vDXg UK Amazon Store: https://amzn.to/3B46F7w (Code: Mike24UK) _____________________________________________________________________ JSP Safety Equipment I Use Disposable Face Mask: https://amzn.to/3XaK8hV Face Shield: https://amzn.to/4akPpqs Half Mask: https://amzn.to/4dtxK2p Powercap Infinity PAPR: https://amzn.to/3SUlAax _____________________________________________________________________ Vevor Pressure Pot Amazon: https://amzn.to/3XaK8hV _____________________________________________________________________ Creality Falcon 2 Pro 40w Laser (10% Off – Code: FNPALL10) Link: https://s.zbanx.com/r/JsV49PtnHrcr _____________________________________________________________________ My Grinding/Sharpening Setup Record Power 8" Grinder: https://www.yandles.co.uk/record-power-8-bench-grinder-tool-sharpening-machine-with-40mm-whitestone/p8401?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAw6yuBhDrARIsACf94RXH_sfwEa2XW0NhXaUMd7xSCDpEAuo5OgIP6j6HfaWoGG-9zBW2QJwaAoPHEALw_wcB Pro Grind Sharpening System: https://amzn.to/4bOEYOb 8" 180-Grit CBN Wheel: https://amzn.to/3whk8GP _____________________________________________________________________ O3A Adhesives O3A Shop: https://o3adhesives.co.uk/?sca_ref=5289570.dycnvAUJlN _____________________________________________________________________ Tools I Use Record Power Regent Lathe: https://www.yandles.co.uk/record-power-coronet-regent-variable-speed-lathe-cw-cast-iron-stand-230v-m33-x-35/p25240?gclid=CjwKCAiA3aeqBhBzEiwAxFiOBn4juCpNvSEbN3kp6cTvxUZ4IfcTbwx2-GUEE6_PiV4QMaEjdVtkDRoCjV4QAvD_BwE Record Power Turning Tools & Chucks: https://www.yandles.co.uk/search/Record+Power+Tool?filter=1&f_category=573&f_brand=46&f_width=0-11&f_price=0-3899 Tim Mason, STEADY REST: [email protected] _____________________________________________________________________ Follow Me Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Mike-Holton-hand-made-crafts-106659121895539 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikeholton_hand_made_crafts/?hl=en Website: http://mikeholton.net/ And special thanks for the intro music goes to: Clemintine Sound Design https://www.linkedin.com/in/clemintinesounddesign/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/dog-box-games/ DISCLAIMER : All of my videos are designed to be entertainment only.
