Control Systems

Several years ago I brought a few pieces of birch trip for an experiment, provoke awe, (see also entry in August 2010 Sycamore Bowl) this is the beginning of descomposision of wood to keep moisture begins to have fungi , a piece I saved a year in a plastic bag with their bark, leaving after I cleaned the bark dries slowly with a couple of years, this past week I was ready to work in the photos reflect the Prosesa, first clean the piece and put on the robert sorby lathe tools to make a cylinder with a rather flat side to put a plate with 24 screws, to fix this piece just to the point of arastre, left stunned as the very soft wood, even a grain is like a sponge ( looks great in photo two in the right hand) is proved necessary to work with very sharp tools, having practically outside the desired shape is proved necessary to put several layers of establizador product that penetrates the wood and becomes more compact , for the final review with the gouge and hand sanding as part uanas are softer than others, and could begin emptying the inside leaving a 6mm. wall, finished emptying a charge made to turn the piece and finish the bottom (photo three) and finished I applied 4 coats of my favorite oil (oil Danes) and the results of this experiment several years of a stunned looks well done this in the photo at the end, the piece has a diameter of 20 cm and a height of 18cm. I am a wood turner and artisan want to explain how to create jobs and turned to wood using traditional gouges freehand with this quire means that the wood just turn around and give way to heramientas. As the Valley does not have a very round trunk is well suited for natural edge work, to begin cutting the trunk and a plate of iron fixed to the side and place the piece on the lathe, apartir now choose a low revolution speed, since the weight about 45 kg. iregularidad approximate and its shape, it has tendency to vibrate. Now I can begin to shape the interior, the piece is more focused and you get a little more speed for better cutting tools and a better finish. Upon completion of the work this work is sanded and applied a finish, in my case is always a special oil and natural beeswax times. Hello friends of the wood, now a story of a sycamore tree that I had much time in my studio, this week I finally had an idea for this piece, as it was cut through the center of the heart to carry it in their time I set the desired diameter, in this case about 40 cm., and cut more or less round with a line marked motosiera, then set a large plate with 6x50mm steel bolts, steel I use the simple reason that the lag screws iron is often broken or Flogar tighten and costs removed after a job and gets to around a fairly low rate of speed as the piece is not balanced at all until the outside is more or less turning in their Thus, po pasmadodo surprise has come a fairly nice, stunned is the beginning of descompocicion process, as the idea was to make a perfect half sphere I have finished the outside leaving a ledge big enough to grab to set an agar plate and enough wood to finish the end of the half full sphere, to make the turn of the piece and set the Return unto the agar plates have saved the center with special tools to make a smaller bowl, already half empty, I finished the inside of the wall as desired, in the song I noticed as I made a few encruestaciones of Granadillo and the same Sycamore, finished this "little job" I've refined the song and I applied the finish on the inside and singing, now I put the bowl upside down on a lathe with a wooden plate to end caceres the bottom of the half sphere and make the holes for the spikes or peaks, already completed are removed from the lathe and I have applied the finish, "only" no turning the skewers 32 Granadillo apply the finish and glue these to the bowl, the photos reflect the beginning of the process and the final outcome of the bowl, the smaller also is safe, can be seen next to a Cueno a magnifying glass of an olive tree, a bowl of natural design in many years fomado and the other a contemporary design, to another day, a salute to all.
