CARVING SOAPSTONE (a Canadian perspective) with Mike Beaton

History and development. Bone/tusk carvings. Registered original hand-made art -sticker. Some artists make similar art without claiming to be Inuit or First Nations. Soapstone is a metamorphic talc based rock, various hardnesses. Various files and riffles and saws used. Mike usually sources his stone from Curve Lake reserve (Sandy Cline). Some comes from Quebec, Newfoudland… (Lee Valley also sells some) Mike uses wet sandpaper with piece in water, 300 grit up to 800. Put into the oven heated to 250-300, then rub beeswax into it, buff it. Could use oils instead.

All filed/sawn parts will need to be sanded then waxed and buffed.

There are some fake pieces out there – mass produced! Don’t be fooled. Real art pieces should be signed and dated. Fakes are less expensive and can look convincing.

Abrasives and Sanding, with the fine and gritty Noel Green

‘use the sandpaper like someone else is paying for it’ SANDING -A WOODWORKING ESSENTIAL.

Aluminum oxide or garnet or silicon dioxide glued onto a backing. Acutting tool like a chisel or saw. 3M ceramic is a newer product. Quality matters.

GRIT – a number referring to the # of particles that are fit into a square inch: two systems, USA and European.

Types: sheets, discs, belts, mesh, random orbital, other.dimple discs

sandpaper.ca source USE CODE ‘inlayjim’ to get 10% off your order!

Turner’s mesh (abranet), mandrel and disc inserts.

Best type depends on the use and the user. Some types can be friable – grit wears off leaving a new layer. Organization matters.

Inertial sanding tool for less aggressive sanding, polishing to a shine.

Mark the grit # on back of all so that when you drop a piece or forget…

European grits are prefixed with a ‘P’. 180 = P180, but all others are different! Be nice to you – use either USA OR European grits, don’t mix em.

5 rules:

1. keep it sharp and clean. Clean with crepe, start each project with new paper

2. refine the shape and remove all tool damage before moving to next grit. Next grit is only to remove previous grit’s scratch pattern. If turning, consider tool repair, sanding in reverse or with lathe stopped

3. Sand through progressively finer grits without skipping any of them. Rule of 1.5 says to go from one grit to 1.5 times that and continue likewise. Use air to blow off dust and particles.

4. remove all dust and grit between

5.Slow is GOOD, Slower is better – heat is the enemy. Sand cool – slower lathe speed, slower movement, less pressure…slow drill speed. If lathe turning in reverse, ensure chuck is secure and power sand in reverse also

Sanding pads, like scotchbrite pads (3M, SIA) can be good for polishing. Various pastes and polishes for finer finishing. 0000 Steel wool can be used. Toothpaste can be used to polish finished pieces.

Flatwork tips. Turning tips. Sanding Safety_ use a mask!, dust collector, can use wet sanding with water (on acrylics) or oil (on woods) to minimize airborne dust. Walnut dust is toxic!

More sanding tips! Prepare packets, make a static sanding pad on a disc for the lathe. Make specialized sanding pads for curves and special surfaces.

Sanding and finishing is crucial to finished product – take the time!

Presentations

Sharpening and Stropping with God Tilley and Dale Coolidge

Gord: strop is used for polishing the edge and removing the scratches /grooves that occur when using sharpening stones. Also used for rounding the bevel on the tool. The nap side is used to hold compound and the smooth side which is harder and is used without compound. Gord also provided a history of stropping.

Dale: after sharpening used leather strop to remove burr from the tool.

He demonstrated stropping using several flat and curved chisels. The strop was clamped to the table and green compound was applied. Using heat, either from your hand or an external source, assists the compound in being spread evenly. Pull the tool back 15-20 times, little pressure applied as too much pressure can round the tip of the tool.

A general discussion followed on who uses strops and why, and their experiences.

Gord Tilley donated a strop he made, oak backing with leather face. Winer was Mike Beaton

Glue Blocks for the Lathe with Noel Green

Using a bought aluminum face plate, attach a glue block with a slight concave surface. This is dipped into a small frying pan that contains melted glue sticks. The bowl blank is centered and held against the glue block. Once dried then it is turned. Advantage of this method is that there is no wasted bowl blank by turning a spigot in it to be held in a chuck.

The bowl is released from the glue block by spraying denatured alcohol (methyl hydrate) on the hot glue. In a few minutes it softens the glue and the bowl can be separated.

Charcuterie Board- Woven Pattern with Paul Kidson

Start by gluing several pieces of different wood temporarily on top of each other (using drops of super glue) then making a wavy cut with a bandsaw through them. The pieces are separated then mixed up so a bottom board is matched with a top board then stacked, glued and cut again. This is done several times. Then a thin piece of contrasting wood is used between the various woods when gluing up the final board and laying out the woven pattern using all the cut pieces.

Gallery, Show & Tell

Kade Bolger – turned ring bowls finished with tung oil. Wood was charred then brushed with stiff bristles before turning.

Steve Hutcheon – scrolled sawn shamrock designwith backing board.

BANDSAW BOXES with Guy May

concept is to start with a block of wood, draw on shape, cut it out, saw off back, find spot in grain to enter into with saw to cut the inside shape, cut out inner to be removed, , pieces re-assemble into the box. Using an 1/8 or 1/4 inch blade

Video shows the process “3 Easy-To-Build Band Saw Boxes”, on youtube. Rather than me fumble through trying to explain the steps, you should watch the video!!!

Scroll Saw Maintenance with Bruce Cook

The DeWalt saw was modelled after the ‘Excalibur’ which was originally designed by an Ontario guy. DeWalt bought the rights and until 2011 they were built in Ontario- these are “type 1” saws and their bearings were greased when built! After 2011 the production shifted to China, “type 2” and the bearings were NOT greased when built – not good! These can be taken apart and greased. There are 18 bearings, 1 sealed, 17 open. Variable speed motor, eccentric shaft, wave washer on LEFT hand threaded main shaft connection. Blue loctite was needed on some connections. A test/survey indicated that a new saw, ungreased, would last about 1 year, while if those saws are greased they last about ten years – these figures for saws in regular frequent use.

CARVING (birds and canes) with guest Presenter Rodney Maahs

started carving at Durham Woodworking Club a few years ago!! Caricatures, boar, birds. How to bird carve: there are books and patterns available… Basswood preferred, top view and side view drawn on, then cut top view with bandsaw, glue back together, then cut side view. Mark out the parts to be cut away. Need one good knife and a ‘V knife’. Maybe also a flat chisel. “KV carving” in New Brunswick, ‘Chipping Away’ carving in Kitchener are sources. Sand it down, draw in feathers, use high speed dremels to do feathers. Either ‘stone'(dremel) or burn the feathers. Either buy feet (pewter) or make them – copper with baking soda and CA glue… You will need a ‘burner’ and a dremel if you want to do serious bird carving. Does many ducks – some have 80-100+ hours of work!! Canes with animal heads. Rodney does classes Wednesday mornings and evenings at Northview Community Centre, through Oshawa Seniors 55+ programs. (12-13 weeks, 3 hrs a day) Cost approx $80.   Acrylic paints used.

Bernie Visser and another are perhaps organizing a drop-in carving group in Oshawa

Announcements

Kade reviewed the many possible sites that the executive and members have investigated for a possible shop location. Several remain under active investigation/communication.

The situation with the church was reviewed: an insurance inspector attended the church and our shop today. He was impressed with many aspects of our shop conditions and practices, making only one recommendation regarding a hood around the grinder, which we agreed to implement. His report goes back to Intact Insurance for their decision. The church itself is looking into possibly self insuring if need be. Decisions and results on this matter may take from one to five months.

** Good of the Club ( 50-50 ) draw next session starts mid-February. Deadline to enter is Feb 9^th, either to Mike.Beaton@durhamwoodworkingclub.com directly or through the club website (bank fees added on) either one ticket for all draws for $24, or three tickets for $48.

Several of our members will be making a presentation about DWC at an upcoming Kiwanis meeting in Oshawa.

The club appreciates the 80% plus of members who have paid their 2023 dues already. It is a strong showing of support as we work through these challenging times. Those who have not yet paid are reminded that they can do so through the website or by contacting Mike Beaton or at a meeting in person to Mike. Members who do not pay their dues may have membership privileges revoked.
