It would be nice if the videos were numbered in the order you would need to see them if you were just beginning.

Is there a 4th part to the Christmas ornament follow along project? If so, how do I find it?

My problem was between my ears. I found the project in the forums.
You’re not the Lone Ranger. Most of my problems are located between my ears.

Very helpful tutorial, very informative, and I understood it a lot better, only because I was able to keep up with you because I followed you in a session I purchased from you. You move around the screen rather rapidly, yet now that I realize what's happening, I'm glad you moved when you did, and it helped me understand it more.

Which video is open segments covered?
Hi Ron.
I don't believe there is a specific tutorial for SP that covers open segments. The software has a choice of open or closed segments and the choice of setting the open segment gap. Designing the vessel is pretty easy and coming up with the cut list. There are many open segment vessel vids available on the internet from various turners that show the process they go through to build one.

Ron,
Make sure you watch the five-part tutorial named “Beginners Project - Open Segment Christmas Ornament”. As that one has a lot of information that is for open segment vessels including design, cutting, assembly and turning.
Here is the link:
Beginner's Project - Open Segment Christmas Ornament
I've done a poor job at providing content for the segmenter that is just getting started with open segment turnings. So with Christmas fast approaching, I thought this would be a good time to correct that with a project that is seasonally appropriate. I've made a five-part tutorial that shows...

No audio again. I got audio on the introduction to Segment Pro but not this video or the video on the differences between Segment Pro and Woodturner Pro.
I just tried it on my laptop and the audio sound is there.
You do have checked to make sure the speakers are not muted both on your PC and the video?

Just checked again. No Dice. The volume on my lap top is at max and same for the video. The introduction to segment pro works fine as does YouTube. I'm sure I am doing something wrong but can't think what it is. Thanks for your response. I will keep trying.

It would be nice like you said if all these video tutorials would be all in one tab for us beginner's
Listen to me now.
I am the only employee of the company and if something happens to me there won’t be anyone here to look up your code or make you a new one. What’s worse is if you don’t have the software installers backed up and I’m gone, the website will also be gone so not having your code OR not having the software installers will mean you are done using my software.
I believe a 3rd of my customers can’t find their code based on the number of times I have to look up their code. Therefore, I’ve come up with a new option that will take care of both of these issues. Click on the Store > Software option and click on the Lost Authorization Code link. This will let you buy a flash drive with all of the software installers on it and you will also receive an email with you authorization code for $15. The drive also has a Content folder that has projects, samples, presentations and jigs that will help you with your segmenting and laminating journey. At $15, it is the best value in all of woodturning/woodworking.
In addition to the flash drive that is easily lost or misplaced, you should back up the installers yourself and it is very easy. Just go to the Downloads page of the website and click on the installers. The first thing that happens is that the installer is copied to your Downloads folder. When the software installs it will be in the Trial mode (this also happens with the flash drive installers). Then click on the Authorization Code button and copy/paste the code within 30 days.
After installation, go to your Downloads folder and copy the installers to a different disk drive, a CD or a thumb drive.
I make no money on the flash drives after postage, packaging, flash drive and my time. I am just sending a message to everyone to get you software and code backed up.
There is no current transitional plan for the company. I’ve been unable to find someone who can program in multiple languages, be a webmaster, accountant, tax expert, an expert at segmenting woodturning and woodworking and able to acquire the company at a modest price.
I haven’t tried as hard as I need to but until the transition is understood, you need to be your best advocate. The software is my responsibility and the code/backup is yours.
