I May Have Gone Too Far…

[@Popinki-x2r]

I've seen cholla cast in resin, but never turned by itself. I've definite never seen it frosted with resin into an alien seed pod. The final product is like a rave party from 1985 got sucked through a wormhole into my brain and exploded. Fabulous job. I love it.

[@Aylen-jh6yq]

Without a doubt one of the most creative I have ever seen! Once again I am amazed. Thanks David for showing what is possible.

[@DavidAdamsen]

@@Aylen-jh6yq Thanks very much!

[@MatthewFrey-kc7vf]

The master strikes again. My GF watched a video of yours with me for the first time. I have seen you in action enough so I was able to call your techniques as you started each phase. She was amazed by your ingenuity. I am continually amazed at how you have turned your creativity into a perfomance art. Thanks for sharing.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks I appreciate you watching!

[@evilotis01]

i think what i like most about your work is that for a lot of the video, i often have no idea what the finished product will look like! it's always surprising and creative, and always interesting!

[@LitaElera]

Exactly!

[@tonylyons5487]

This is one of the coolest turning I've watched in a long while

[@Kmi4880]

WOW! That is so different and mind blowing. It's amazing under regular and black light Both sides look so different from the other and the colors are beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 😍😍😍😍😍😍💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

I doubted the process around the 3rd pour but man am i glad I stuck around, it looks like opalized petrified wood very awesome.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks for sticking with it!

[@johnnyb95678]

An amazing, beautiful, creative, and expertly executed work of art. I always so enjoy watching you work.

[@karenstafford724]

Wow! That was certainly very different. It's absolutely gorgeous. ❤❤❤. Love the colours 😍 ❤️

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you, Karen!

[@marklengal9990]

I like the colors in this one . Remind me of the posters and the black lights we had as kids. I got your emails just haven’t had time to take some pictures of the wood I have yet.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks Mark! Take your time! ✌️

[@cheryl3895]

WOW, you are so creative. Those colors are so beautiful together and I love the see in the dark affect. Keep up your awesome work and thanks for sharing.

[@robvanza]

Love it, takes me back to my youth! Hoping that you're going to put some black light in for some extra effect!! Still awesome, keep them coming!

[@ClassicSteelRC]

Words can't begin to describe how unbelievably gorgeous this work of art is! Well done, once again!

[@stephanievivier290]

Holy smokes! Thats so awesome. Kinda of remind me outer space. The large black like a black holes. Amazing job. 🥰

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much, Carl!

[@Lori-p9g]

How you got from that dark, brown/black color that I thought just covered up how beautiful it was to your end product, just boggles my mind. It came out stunningly! I can't even believe just how beautiful it is. What talent you have, Sir. Just Amazing!

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks so much!

[@bespokewoodartistry1517]

Now that’s Art! Love your videography and set a level of skill I aspire to. I’ll be watching this many times. Cheers mate!

That's beautiful, David. Amazing actually. There's not much resemblance to what you started with. You've become the resin version of Stewart Furini. Bill

[@joshwhitley4708]

Smoke rolling backwards - you've been watching old Top Gear! Fantastic work as always. Such a joy to watch.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Haha, well not really but it looked kinda gnarly in the edit so I just went with it.

[@BeezyBee89]

That was really cool man!! Love the colors with the natural wood ❤️ .. Great work!

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Really didn't think the red colors were going to work out but it looks Amazing. 😄👍

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks, I was trying to avoid using pink, so they ended up looking a little muddier than I had hoped but yeah it kinda worked out in the end.

[@muzafferc.]

You should definitely come to Turkey. Because there are a lot of two-legged people here, you have to turn them into art like this.

[@shaunehilton9617]

When I first started watching this, I was not sure if I liked what I saw. However, I always watch the videos to the end… and in this case, thank goodness I do!!! The final piece that you created is incredibly beautiful and you should be very proud. Thank you for sharing ❤❤

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks very much! I appreciate that!

[@brucegoatly]

That's a truly astonishing and beautiful piece! Great videography and editing too. I hope you can use the shavings in another project.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you very much! I ended up saving some of them.

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Haa! 12:50 Every time I see a pour like this it reminds me of old Honey Nut Cheerios commercials from the 90's. The way this looks is like one of those honey dippers or whatever they're called. 😄👍

[@dtork47]

Awesome piece, very nicely done. Stay safe.

[@vickiep4217]

When you said glamour shots, I was expecting it to be lounging on the boot of a car or frolicking in the waves.... Love it, and actually prefer it in the light rather than the dark I think. Maybe if you keep all the shavings they could be used in clear resin?

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks, Yea I will save some of the shavings. Unfortunately shavings with wood end up looking muddy even in clear resin.

At first I was thinking that was a lot of waste but seeing the end effect makes it worth it. Gives it a space/alien look. I've made pens with this, but haven't been able to get a piece this big before. Gorgeous work!

It is most nice to be able to do things for oneself, but if there was ever anyone I wanted to fulfill my dream of making something fluorescent, turned by UV light, you're the one I'd want to do it. I think when I next feel the urge to see UV turning again this is the first video I'll be back to watch again, David.
