Woodturning a wooden bell

 























Tools and materials I propose:

Lathe

Buffing kit

Wood turning tools set

Chuck kit

Tormek T8 Sharpening System

Tormek Woodturner’s Kit



In this video I make a small bell out of pixari. Unfortunately I don't know it's name in English. It's a really hard yellow wood. 


I begun by turning the piece true on the lathe.


I like to clean the end grain with a bowl gouge. 


Then I drilled an entry hole and started hollowing the end grain with my hook tool. It’s a similar process to making a goblet.


Once I finished with the bell I turned the handle. 


I cut the bell off and buffed it on the buffing wheel using carnauba wax. 


I then used a skew to turn a small tongue for the bell. 


I then connected the bell with the tongue and my little bell was ready.


It does not have the resonance of a metal bell but it works really nicely.


But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
