So you mean turn a lamp shade on purpose, I've made allot by accident. By the way that guy is Soren Berger a world renown wood turner that turns almost that fast in real time.

It's kind of painful to read all the comments on that Youtube page. Just about every comment section on that site is a cesspool, but the ignorance of people when it comes to our craft hits close to home, I suppose.

Berger is a legendary turner, and this video doesn't do him justice for those just learning what turning is.

Presently working on an Aspen lamp shade to go with a base of Red Mallee.
