In this video I carve a drawing I had in my mind on a piece of basswood. Before carving I turned the disc on the lathe. It's diameter is about 24cm.


I begun by preparing my blank for the lathe. I cut the basic circle on the band saw. 24mm is the maximum diameter my little lathe can handle. 


I turned my piece true between centres and I created the tenon for my chuck. 


I kept it on the chuck so I could easier clamp it on my vise.  


I removed most of the material with my trim router. Basically it’s a three level carving. 


I then used my traditional wood carving tools to carve my design. 


I then cleaned the tenon on the back and finished the piece with mineral oil. 


And that was it. I am really happy with the way it came out. But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
