"How'd he do that?"

Here is a link to a fun video of a segemented bracelet I made.

Can't say I learned how to make the bracelet, but it was an impressive video.

I would spray the segments without the stretchy cord on it though so you don't degrade the rubber, unless you are shooting water based products. But I am really liking the video. Real nice!

 

[Scotty Lewis]

Thanks Steve.

I had the segments strung across some fishing line for the finishing.

Nice Job Scott. Fun to watch.

And you got a nice hug out of it.
Good job

Scotty - nice job on the video. It would have been easy to avoid the cross-grain joints. Probably not a big deal in such small dimensions, but why not use a segmented ring for the outside layers?

Scotty's demo

Last Tuesday evening Scotty did a demo for the Kawartha Woodturners Guild here in Ontario. He is also a member.
His presentation of the process was outstanding and very simple for anyone to follow along.
The manner in which he presented his demo incorporating video kept everyones attention throughout the evening session. All in attendance
enjoyed the way he added humor into his presentation. It is a presentation I would recommend.

Thanks for the link, Scotty.

I enjoyed your presentation very much......very creative, and I like your light-hearted style. :cool2:

I was impressed with some of your woodworking jigs......I'm a bit of a fanatic about this kind of preparation, myself!.......

.....look forward to seeing a few more of your videos.

Thanks Malcolm!

I wasn't concerned about the cross-grain here because of the small dimensions. I have been paying more attention to the orientation of things and wood movement on my larger projects though.

Thanks for watching!

Very nice Scotty, and I must say , you are a true showman:cool2:

Very cool video work, and the bracelet looks great, too.

 

[Ted Monk]

Great video! Very entertaining 3 minutes. Inspiring.

 

[Adamshefard]

I feel a lot more people need to watch this video, very good info!

 

[Glen Weldon]

Awesome!

Scotty,

I see this is from quite a while back but it is a great video and the project was very inspiring to me! I just joined the website yesterday and this is the first post I've looked at after searching on "segmented". Awesome job young man!

nice job

Ah Yes.. the enthusiasm of youth and the skills of a seasoned turner. This was 3 well spent minutes. Thanks for this!!

I am especially impressed with the videography skills. Telling a story by creating brief illustrating scenes and merging them together takes a great deal more skill than just turning the camera on and letting it run. There were a lot of really clever transitions from one scene to another that reminded me of the creativity of Jerry Bruckheimer.

 

[Jake Gevorgian]

Excellent turning! A smart way of getting those holes made! Now we know that almost everything can be made on the lathe lol

I just didn't like the soundtrack...it must have been the iMovie preset sounds. But overall it's cool (I muted the sound and was listening to some tune by the Massive Attack)

Cheers

Wow that was good Scotty i will watch again when i have more time thanks:

Absolutely. It's very well done.

I like things like this. My only sadness to it is it is too fast for me to comprehend all aspects to what was done. I would be interested in alot of the steps used such as the jigs he used and also the method to drill the tiny holes. I did not follow all the steps mbecause I lok at the finished product and try to keep it in mind as I go back over the video. Seems like things I just do not see why they were done. But all in all it was entertaining.

It was an entertainment video and not an instructional video. However, it would not hurt many of the pros who make videos to use professional videographers who know how to storyboard a program so that it presents the salient points along with making the best use of camea positions rather than simply turning on a camera and letting it run. It seems like too many instructional videos have not advanced much beyond that point.
