Welcome to our channel! In this video, professional wood turner Emma Cook from England shows you how to turn and color a wooden platter. Known as "The Tiny Turner," Emma explains simple techniques step by step for impressive results.

We work with a 25 cm wooden blank, and Emma demonstrates how to round it and securely attach it to the lathe. She then turns the back of the platter and adds interesting textures that can also hide minor mistakes.

Emma primarily uses a 3/8 bowl gouge and provides valuable safety tips for woodturning. She shows how to create a recess to make the workpiece more stable.

A highlight of the video is the centrifugal technique using ebonizing lacquer and special colors. Emma guides you through the entire process, from applying the lacquer to using color and metal pigments for stunning effects.

After coloring, the platter is returned to the lathe for the final touches. Finally, the platter is treated with a food-safe oil to protect the wood and enhance the colors.

This video is perfect for anyone interested in woodturning, workshop projects, wood, and turning tools. Subscribe to our channel, like the video, and leave a comment. Have fun woodturning and see you in the next video!
