new techniques and kokeshi dolls
saw a video of a japanese turner making kokeshi dolls apparently they are made in northern japan he had severla interesting techniques the tool rest was far from the work and more of a hand rest he guided the tool freehand and below the centerline he also used an interesting technique to afix the doll head he gouged a hole in the top and then pressed the doll head into the hole using hand pressure there was a small knob on the head base that fit into the base there was a small puff of smoke from friction and a slight burn not sure what finish was used but it looked good |

That "riding the bevel" for a hook means the tool cuts below center line |
