Here is a video that shows my rosette cutter in operation. I'm using my PM90 and hotglue the blanks to the faceplate.I have a 1/4" brass pin for locating the center. These came out pretty clean for red oak without sanding.

Slap my face!

Paul that was truly a learning experience. I know now how I will turn wheels for toys in the future!

Thanks!

I love your Viedo Paul.
I guess I am going to put such a music in my workshop, it might pull me up :)

Very neat Paul, I've been looking at getting rosette cutters for my drill press, but I've never seen that method before. Thanks for sharing.

Paul, I guess I need to get an order for a bunch of rosettes! That just looks like fun!! Great video and wonderful music!! I have been listening to Jim Kountz and his band in my shop, it is bluegrass and it is incredible!! Keep sharing the videos with us they are great!

Paul, I really enjoy your videos. They are concise, and instructional - always a couple of neat ideas put forth. While I don't forsee a need for the rosettes, I can sure see some adaptations of this method for other applications.

Since I am really new to this turning thing, are the blade holders available, or is that something you built?

Look at post #9 under Rosette Cutters last month and see the other blades I have made for this holder. This holder was made by Del Stubbs many years ago and has a #2 Morse taper that goes in the tailstock. This would be a good way to make wheels, but I haven't tried it yet. I'm thinking of making another one for larger moulding corners etc. (Not sure how to reference a past post.)
