Video Transcript

"I've picked up my small 3/8ths spindle gouge. I'm going to roll a little bead in here and then we're going to put a little bit of a wire burn. A little burn area on each side of the bead to make it stand out a little bit more. Make sure you readjust your tool rest when you are working on a detail. You want to have as much control as possible right here. Rub that bevel and I'm going to come in right there. That's one side of the bead. Rub the bevel again. Now my bead has a little bit of a flat spot so I'm just going to lightly scrape. I rolled it a little to quick so I'm going to lightly scrape that area just real light. Now I've got a nice little bead detail right there."
