  • Yep - We get it ...

    Yep - We get it from a local hardwood supplier - there are lots of resources out there - on the web and local dealers who sell poplar - a "softer" hardwood. Most will need you to buy boards that are over 3/4" thick by the board rather than the foot. If you are turning a plate for the first time - you might consider surfacing and gluing up some less expensive wood to thickness to get the hang of it first. Good Luck!

  • Not only is the ...

    Not only is the demonstrator good at what he is doing, but 1)he is excellent at explaining and showing "how to" and 2)the camera work and sound are excellent. Obviously professionally done. I've been searching YouTube for these kind of demos for awhile... now I've found much of what I need in Jet Tools site.
    I'm watching this one over and over to get the movements and positions in mind for the hollowing operation with a bowl gouge, then I'm heading to the shop. rlah1
