My Method For Turning Captive Ring Rattle

Post by rkh2 »

I was asked by a forum member to give a description of the method I use to turn my captive ring rattles, so I put together my method in a PDF format so it will not take up a lot of space. Hopefully everyone that is interested can open this document. There are many ways this can be done and I am sure they all work but this is the way I do it, so enjoy.

Very good. It was easy to follow and hit all the high points. Have you ever considered writing an how to book on turning?? Thanks.

Wow. Thank you. A very timely post. Last night I attended a turning class at Woodcraft. It was 5 years since I went to the traveling academy, and haven't turned since that one experience. Now I have a reason to price on spindles.
Your instructions are excellent. I will now attempt to make a rattle or a lovely pile of sawdust.
Thanks, Gary

You know, if you make them without those rings you don't have all that racket. :D Silent baby rattles.

The dozen grand-kids are all older than that. It's all great-grand-kids now. About a dozen at last count. I think the oldest of those is 11. Family gatherings are a hoot...

Francis, why is it that I get the feeling that whenever you are around,"it is a hoot"? Family gatherings are probably something that your whole family looks forward to.
I keep finding little windows on this forum, that I don't really know what they do. So sometimes I experiment. Probably shouldn't do that, I know in my shop it can get me into trouble.

Ron:

I'm not a turner but often wondered how that was done.

Thanks for the lesson.
