Where can I find a "You Tube" for more comples shapes?

[rodtod11]

I would like to move toward more complex shapes in pen/stylus turning. Where can I find instructions or better yet, a You Tube video on how to do the shapes similiar to the picture I attached. I went on You Tube but wasnt successful.

The only "you tube" video i know of is....your imagination
Now, if wanting to know "how'' to make the beads and coves...practice with the tools you have on a scrap piece of wood making those beads and coves. There is YT vids on how to do that, but it takes some practice and patience. Hope this helps.

I agree. Instead of looking for videos on pen shapes, Look for videos on beads and coves. Finial turning would also be a good source. Then practice the basics and incorporate them into your designs. Looking through the show off your pens forum wil give you a lot of inspiration.
