pendant

About one out of every three or so pendants i do, i end up blowing the whole thing out trying to make the hole. It doesn't seem to happen as bad, or often when i make them out of wood. The PR ends up catching, and the gouge bounces all the way across the face of the piece. I see some really...

Was looking at some pendant that were posted on here when My wife saw them and wanted to try. She was making me some Pen Blanks and wanted to try her hand at the pendant pours. Went over the tutorial(thanks Hans) and got some supplies These are her pours and her bead work, I just put a sharp...

Trying to catch up on some orders, found a source for more Corian colors. Seems the ladies like the Corian better than the wood ones. Still have to make the necklace parts. The two Pheasant wood, one Koa and three of the Corian are sold. Tomorrow I'll attempt to make some matching earrings...

I have been doing pendants this way using scrap woods that I acquire along the way. Bowl scraps, "freebies" from the vendors and general stuff from around the shop. I start off with a piece of wood 2 X 2 X 1.5 +/-. I mark the center on each side and then use a compass to draw a circle. On...

Ok, I have added to the craze, now I have have made my first set of earrings to match a pendant. The first is a Paduak, Purpleheart, spalted beech and afezila segment. The second "set" is made from Lacy Dogwood. Comments welcome.

I've really liked the pendants that everyone has been posting and thought I'd try my hand at a couple. Here are my first 2 attempts-maple burl and birdseye maple. I'm wondering if the chain looks too light for the pendants and whether or not I should use something more 'robust.' Let me know...

I finally tried my first pendant having seen so many beautiful ones on this forum. This one which is turned from crosscut spalted crabapple was part of my neice's graduation present. She has a horse and is quite fond of horses in general. I was really surprised when I saw a horse image when...

I came into the bedroom where my wife was watching the goofy show "So you think you can dance". I stopped for a moment to watch and noticed the dark haired judge lady was wearing a big ole pendant necklace. Looked like it was a synthetic material. I just thought it was funny, what with all the...

Hi Guys, I am brand new to turning. I am starting out with pens, but would like to learn how to make bottle stoppers and pendants. I have a fuzzy idea on the stoppers, but no clue on where to start learning about pendants. Is there a source for instruction on these items? Thnks, Lou

I picked up some double sided duck tape at wally world today to try with pendants. Worked pretty good. It does stick to the back pretty bad when you peel the pendant off the "mandrel" but otherwise it worked well, and it was fairly cheap, and VERY LOCAL! I am going to try it with a piece of...
