Back again after a fairly long break with a scorched and embellished ash vase woodturning project.
It was turned between centres, then hollowed, coloured and burnt deeply with a blow torch.
The grain was then artistically embellished with Hampshire Sheen Gold and Bronze Embellishing Waxes. Here is a full list of the tools used:
Spindle Roughing Gouge from unknown maker;
Les Thorne's Round Skew;
Axminster 3/8" Bowl Gouge;
Robert Sorby 10mm Spindle Gouge;
Robert Sorby Sovereign Hollowing Tool with Little Hogger Tip
Simon Hope Pro Sander with 25mm head;
2 generic blow torches;
Generic Brass Brush;
'Ruby' from Hampshire Sheen's Intrinsic Colour Collection
Hampshire Sheen Gold, Bronze and Black Embellishing Waxes
CAUTION: Using flame in the workshop can be dangerous. Take all necessary precautions to safeguard yourself and your workshop from accidents. Remember that your workshop safety is your responsibility. Copy these techniques at your own risk.
