February 2017 – Michael Hosaluk – Channel Islands Woodturners

Michael Hosaluk from Saskatoon started his demo with 30-minute slide show of his work.

Making old fashioned top demonstrating tool technique

Micheael likes and sells the Thompson tools

Showing how he slices the spatula stock – cannot bend because won’t stay bent if gets wet

Drives with toothless cup for safety and slot holds blade on live center

Shaping blade on variable speed MDF sanding disk

Baseball project – stitches are wood burned

Michael cut this ball strictly by eye – and it was truly round!

Starting project with roughed out Madrone blank

Hollowing with small scraper on side grain in jam chuck

Handle steamed in microwave wrappped in wet towel then clamped in form to dry

Explaining how he forms and bends legs on vessel

Beading with the beading tool (grain is axial)

Hollowing with the hook tool on end grain

Showing hook tools with different grinds

Hollowing on bottom for legs – Jam chuck not real secure

Down to a sixteenth inch or so using light to gauge thickness

Maple blank for horn project – check out the sexy gouge handle

Making a tenon to fit the halves together

Leave center joint alone while tapering the ends

True up sections’ surface flat on sanding disk

Al G. prepping glue joints with 50/50 thinned wood glue and surfaces allowed to dry
