• Are you looking for a coupon code to buy my software? You can get one from lots of 3rd party sites but they won't work. My software never goes on sale and has never been discounted. The only coupon codes that are given is when I give a club presentation and I offer a discount to the attendees. Other than that, everyone pays the same price.

    Segmented Bowl with Chevron

    Thought about it and went out and tried it on a piece of scrap. My problem had been that even though I'd set up absolutely perfect chevrons, when I cut their bevels, I didn't account for the LOSS of wood and the alteration to the pattern. The chevrons simply didn't line up on the inside...

    Segmented Bowl with Chevron

    Okay, I understand the system you've described for cutting segments to align grain. Now, does that system work with a Chevron design? I just set up a chevron on a flat configuration such that each chevron was absolutely perfectly aligned with it's neighbor. I cut off the dog ears on both...

    Greetings from Maine

    Not really new, in that I've been lurking here for quite a while. But I got the Wedgies, used Jerry's sled making ideas and have made a prototype 18 segment piece with spacers that came out so accurate it was scary. Got the new software and it seems to be the "Cat's Pajamas" as far as what it...

    New Mainer

    From the rugged coast of Maine, GREETINGS. Just found this group and it sounds like fun. Been a wood turner for several years and am still trying as many different styles as I can. Haven't found my "niche" yet but I'm working on it. Currently I'm fascinated with the "Vortex" style bowls...

    Greetings

    Lloyd, Good to hear there's someone else out there that believes angles can be cut accurately enough that making a correction is a waste of time when you can get it right the first time. My layer clamping system works well and allows me to apply as much, or as little pressure as I want...

    Greetings

    Lloyd, Glad to finally find someone in my camp. As much as I admire the work of some of the giants, the fact that they actually PLAN for the half circle correction speaks volumes to me. Okay, we have to know how to deal with mistakes. But why plan to make them and have to correct them? The...

    Greetings

    Lloyd, Wood burning is pretty easy. Getting a quality design is the tricky part, or at least that's my take on it. I've been working with the Sorby spiral tool since the AAW conference and have gotten it figured out so I can get a great spiral on any cylinder. It works on the flat surface of...

    Greetings

    Hi Folks, New to the forum, kind of new to wood turning and segmented work. Attended the latest AAW conference and came away overwhelmed and loaded down with purchases I didn't know I needed. Now, I'm home and working my butt off to get stuff done before the "Predicted" Early and Nasty winter...
