Tools and materials I propose:
I made this holder out of a piece of briar root. I filled the cracks with black epoxy resin and then I turned it on the lathe. I really want to thank my friend and awesome craftsman and turner Fotis Kalovedouris for sending this amazing piece to me.
I begun by making a mould for my stock.
I then filled it with black epoxy and used the vacuum chamber to de-gass it.
I used a carbide round scraper to turn the piece until I revealed the wood. I still had some gaps so I used some faster setting epoxy to correct them.
It was not perfect but much better.
I then started turning the piece. Once I was ready with the exterior I begun hollowing.
I started with forstner bits and then used bowl gouges, the hook tool and a spindle gouge depending on the grain.
I then used my divider to divide the piece on into sections. Using my rotary tool and a jeweller’s saw I shaped the top lip.
I also made the hole for the incense stick.
Next I used my rotary tool again to shape the bottom.
I sanded the piece and then I buffed it on my buffing wheels.
I think it came out really nice, but that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
