Woodturning a batch of spinning tops

 
























Tools and materials I propose:

Lathe

Wood turning tools set

Chuck kit

Tormek T8 Sharpening System

Tormek Woodturner’s Kit

Bandsaw

Table saw

Forstner bit set

Alcohol based markers

Wire Burning Kit

Jointer planer


In this video I make spinning tops out of basswood.


I first squared my stock on my planer and table saw. 


Then I started making the handles. I found the centres and cut  the rough shape on the bandsaw. I then drilled the holes now that my pieces where still square. 


Next I turned the spinning tops. I added a round headed nail on their bottom and used alcohol based markers to decorate them. 


And my little tops where ready and really fast spinning. But that was it, see you soon with a new project video.
