woodworking were brief mostly occur in childhood when I own

owned by Mattel power shop Regional 1960’s version of truly day

dangerous toys in the wrong hands off of me that is a complement it was electric

I came with safety goggles it was capable of cutting real wood pine anyway

anyway you could be set up a jigsaw a drill press a disc sander with a feature that fascinated mean

baby was the lady what you love me the shape sticks wood to an endless succession of

miniature chair legs now if I had pursue the world Metallica powers

00:01:40

powershop a little farther I might have found there’s more that can be done with wood working on a Ledge

ana legs and my guests on Today Show certainly know all about that

00:02:50

and the most recently on the PBS create channel and now a days

your your your issuing a DVD’s you have a good training with him

video series that you can find on youtube video a branch that wants to show

the show is put on hiatus my buddy Bryan new work with me on the show

job on the side with a really full length instructional DVDs

but then also to keep paying it forward which is a whole purpose of the original show we put

put free video tapes on YouTube have over 50 right now what’s the difference in

00:03:25

have you gotten from the YouTube videos really good I will dwell over

3000 hits right now and we going to do it for a couple years and up

it’s good feedback to because I learn alot from the common people put on their

1 project with the recently they said that be great product for

for a child to learn and that’s important aspect

love to my wife I was joking though she’s lucky I have

I have groupies who are 75 year old man about

00:04:00

what’s the saying catch me you been in TV a long time but I guess it would turning is it

is a relatively new activity for you how did you get into it and how do you get on TV

TV with live in in the working in button commercial in public television

Kroger 30 years and when I first start working at Rogers State University

public TV station will work now I did a show called expressions were produced shot

shot if I had a host and we go find people who expressed in Felton many different ways

and one day we did a show on Ron Fleming who the local woodturner here but also

00:04:35

also known worldwide and he was one of pioneers of wood turning in that it would

he would turn a vessel like a bowl vase with carbine

Harbor and his nature as his inspiration for the design wall

set my whole career all I’ve done is video so no working

commercial TV at the CBS affiliate I would work all day on something last a minute

minute 30 and it was here and on and yeah I want to ward things like that

can’t hang out video tape on the wall in show someone some watching Ron

00:05:10

make this piece of wood into this beautiful shape and I realize all the Sun that thing

thing is going out with him that single set on a table people walk by

Wow contributed that it’s almost like on Sunday religious experience realize

all the sudden that’s a tangible legacy there and it was awful

really need really called me and I think within a week I went out bottle lathe tools and started

just rolling wood shop and I just wanted to say right now we walk

we welcome your calls and emails in focus Evo questions about woodturning may be your own

00:05:45

experiences with working with would you can call in and talk to a girl

talk to tame your in also talk to my friend pelted 1 800 2229

29455 that’s toll free 1 800 222 w

email us at wilderness talk it Illinois a.edu

you um now the woodshed the witchery you do is it

is it very different from what I run Fleming was doing yeah uh

joke about it with the show with Vinny workshop what we do now with other woodturning

00:06:20

kind of cancer are product be the gateway drug

yeah we do the simple projects with you so complicated one but mostly the hope

purpose of the show is the show that this isn’t that scary it isn’t that hard and anyone

can do it and then once we get those people who dat there they get really into

is there a buncha turners out there horse Ohio level that

there’s no limit what you can do with her ron has a piece of the White House

election and a couple other people live in my own club have pieces of the White House

00:06:55

election so right now my stuff is in the permanent wife

collections I’m hoping one day to get a little bit higher with it now I’m trying to

really wrap my mind around this thinking of the chair legs I was making as a kid of course

horse things which are severely symmetrical objects

made of wood turning um not all like that at all

set at all and um what am I missing Harrison how would turning work

works well if you’re absolutely right with the same matter that is the majority

00:07:30

of what woodturners do they put a piece of wood on the lays the lathe

lathe actually hold on you can and Spencer you simply have a tool

you have the sharpest cutting pee and you put it up on arrest in Anderson

is the tool jelly to the would you take away the would anyone up with the b******* for a vase

shape or a honey dipper things like that but then there other people

people who are taking that instead of mounting a piece of wood do it mountain

turning in a movie on one in the pill to help for something

00:08:05

Alabama turn on how to balance part is really more complicated

complicated explain the what you see if I can I see that’s pretty easy

okay have how to know how complex is your as as your own attempts cotton is

cancer um I’ve done I try to Devil in a little bit

everything and I’m definitely master of none a just looking at the show

shells right here I’ve got the a ornamental Holiday bill worth

what’s two pieces of wood one pieces card after you turn it up while I kick it

00:08:40

my complication I love the most is like turning ugly wood

piece of wood that has a rod side to order something like that so when it starts

expanding your to Lexie skipping across s voice turning air have the time

but what I get to do at that point I get the reveal the beauty what nature actually made inside

wood and I’m kind of justice system to get out alive jesters clarify

mental picture here is the wood always rotating a rotating an offense

speed when you’re working on it is winter It’s Always rotating

00:09:15

the bigger the pizza would the more lobsided it is a slower you have the lake

the lace fit and little tiny things like a wither

ink pen and pencil pen kit and you turn the barrel off the pill

and that you have been in upper to 3000 revolutions per minute

Nevada big chocolate on the way that I was trying to get rust out

taking off the park in Inola to make it smooth out of shape

im I have a spinning at 150 RB in a minute

00:09:50

2 fast you can have a very exciting time watching that people would like raw sex shop

now I’m wondering I’ve seen some pieces of what

what would I get a now come from wood turning which just look incredible delicate

bowls and things like that and I’m just trying to imagine

how its done without use the whole thing shattering apart while you’re working on

patience and persistence practice the 3 P’s

you definitely have to have sharp tool and

00:10:25

the one differences if I was a woodworker I have a table saw a bandsaw

and I push the weather this place I can do a lot of wood that blade

before having light with wood turning you actually have a grinder that you take your tools

tool to and you sharpen the edges tool well every

305 10 minutes when you’re turning you need to go back and sharp

very very sharp tool well I just take what I call feathers of wood

it’s almost like it float in the air you take an upset just fine little bit of wood

00:11:00

um I have myself right now a little goblet I turn a few years ago

only 4 inches tall and a cup the part of the cup

Cup in the foot only bad happen twice but the stem on it is the rest of it

4 inches and it is probably 1/16 of an inch wife  so

so you can do with delicate work with it  what’s wrong with it

set em Yoder who’s going to be in Champaign this weekend for workshops at the

NFL hit myself in the head with Michael handle

I was doing things the wrong but it’s clubs like yours that’s real

really make it a possum opossum is a traffic if you can

you can learn a lot of wood burning techniques by watching

videos the hands on have somebody stay right next to you say no try this

move your elbow 1 inch or or go but this way RAZR to rest a quarter in

is catching the museum in a college voice and just thinking this is really a

Leah craft that that that that that that that the love people love very deeply

yes it’s the analogy I make is if I have a bad

00:20:55

bad day at work and I need to blow off steam n stuff

test the best as a woodworker I can’t run out build

bookshelf in one team  but is with her I can go out and make a

KS coop for my wife Coffee Bean you know and 30

30 minutes to go and make a complete project come out at and Cicero

and it’s just a release you know you get to get all that out of you and as opposed to being

fractions of an inch in being very specific in careful how you make a cat

00:21:30

close enough is good enough cuz I want to know what you’re after

your after they’re going to see the finished product can go yet exactly where do it I’m wondering on

on on on your TV work because you haven’t been woodturning that long

doing it from childhood whatever rice NYS I guess you have even been in front of the camera

the camera that long did you think that affected how you approach the program spread

beretta some of the other maker TV shows up there exactly because I think we started doing a show

turning about 10 years witches it’s about time but

00:22:05

but at the same time there are some people who do this for a complete living

40 to 60 70 hour week job working for public TV station is it

what is the wood turning with the weekend evening and

I realize that there was a voice missing in the wood turning around to wear

we had to get people start to get people interested we had to make it

that’s why they weren’t overwhelmed ur or or scared of trying to do

project an actual think my lack of being such an expert in

00:22:40

inserting maybe a little more protein because I make mistakes on camera

camera and I leave them in the show because you can learn how to do it right

try to let you see somebody doing wrong once in awhile and I guess I am a pro at that

now that you’re also doing these workshops 11 how have those been working

working out to the TV work so I love doing workshop because it is a minute ago

is there still is no replacement for standing next to a truck

instructor and having a person say just deliver this tool that there’s a thing with the light

00:23:15

what’s the latest we call the dance you literally have to sway your body from side to side

how to make certain that you might be working on a hobbit which is this the end

embellishment which is only a quarter inch wide but you literally are swing in your body probably

lease a foot have to to feet and that doesn’t really late sometimes on

I’m fine, because of the angle a cami can’t tell how far someone to move

what’s happening with the tool time and yeah I

yeah I love doing hands on in and the truth is I always come out of burning something to myself

00:23:50

00:34:20

shop supply obviously as to Jess that but does the next part of it with you

what you were talking about I was a little Institution call the dream shopping

more about that what Dennis Coleman are found burned

President was together with some friends I actually some Ski Club

Ross in around talking about their love for woodworking and one guy should we all want love

I’d love to have a 20 inch planer red love to have that big machine but I can’t justify

defiant and I would use that be nice to be nice to be able to s*** so that’s what you get

00:34:55

can you give me the idea that create a space

where we can share the different equipment and you could join become a member

remember of the dream shop and would give you an access at last

150,000 dollars worth of equipment in the dream shop

how do participants today all the all help finance this year

yes YouTube a membership fees upfront and that use you a membership for life

if you own that membership there a number of companies should price

00:35:30

pride something similar and they would just rented time on

on the equipment or so much time in the shop in the car

the customer have no skin in the game shows a tour of the equipment nope no big deal

deal but we wanted to have his responsibility in ownership so you actually

Jackson become an owner Anna part of the sea you dream shop and

and that it gives you access to all the equipment numeral table

table saws over 6000 dollars for the Clemson a dream shop Tucson

00:36:05

to CNC routers there’s an approved spray booth

any Festool to let you think I was in the dream shop for your use so it just

juice makes a lot of sense now um you coming to come to the dream shopping

shop if your member of it usually see a group of people there people working on their owners
