Build Elegant Wooden Kaleidoscopes

After demonstrating the turning of Wooden Kaleidoscopes to numerous woodturning and woodworking clubs, it soon became obvious that although plans were available, visual detailed instruction would be very helpful.

Now Jim Duxbury has released a comprehensive video detailing each step in the construction of his award-winning Traditional Kaleidoscope. Hundreds of these beautiful kaleidoscopes have been sold, and with the help of this DVD and his detailed plans, you too can make your very own unique kaleidoscopes!

Topics covered on the DVD include the history of kaleidoscopes, prototypes, triangular design, centerless turning techniques, safety tips, glass & mirror cutting, object boxes, cradle construction, final assembly, finishing, and more.
