So let's talk about misusing resin, because that's exactly what I demonstrated in this video. Deep pours of this size require active cooling to avoid thermal cracking, and I really had no idea what I was getting into with this one other than that I fully anticipated that the resin would crack. I was not prepared for just how much cracking would take place, and I think that alone made the project much more difficult. I was also warned by a SuperClear representative that their resin is known to chip in woodturning applications, but I think the chip-out was exacerbated by all the extra voids left from the thermal cracking. In the end, the results speak for themselves, and I think all that extra work was worth it for a truly unique poisonous cauldron! Thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoyed me experimenting with a new (to me) fog machine!
I'm not the first to coat burls in contrast-color epoxy before casting in resin, but this was my first attempt to emphasize the natural edges of the burl using glow pigments in epoxy. I also attempted to use glow pigments in the casting resin, but as expected, the glow powder drifts to the bottom of the mold and most of the pigment was lost. This was also the heaviest blank I have ever turned, coming close to 80 lbs. Fortunately, there's a nice core blank for a future project!

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzbin.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for.

[@honzikkrobotu479]

[@johnjoy6374]

As a power-carver and fellow woodworker, all I can say is that I am incredibly impressed with your work in general, and your work here specifically. In power-carving, if I screw up I simply keep going because you never know how mistakes become advantageous later. Not that it matters, but I am proud of you for sticking with this one and hanging in there till the end instead of giving up and moving on. I literally just put my lathe together Sunday, and haven’t even used it yet. Partly because I want to watch more videos before hand, and partly out of confusion of where to start. Watching you gives me something to strive towards. I am not interested in selling, but I AM interested in making beautiful things for my wife, and maybe a few family members, if they’re lucky, 😂. Thank you very much for allowing us to view your process. Sincerely, John

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks John! I appreciate your comment! I really try not to give up, and you’re absolutely right, the mistakes and mishaps are opportunities for something better. You are definitely on the right track with watching KZbin to get started in woodturning. That’s how I learned and there are so many wonderful and talented craftsmen and artists on this platform. There’s always more to learn, but I really hope you enjoy getting into it yourself!

[@hanswichmann5047]

I don't know what's more impressive - the finished piece or your incredible tooling collection! Your content just keeps getting better & this one really blew me away....

[@wilburhornshnoggle2619]

This is a Masterpiece...! I can't imagine how much off camera work went into this.. Mind boggling..

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks Wilbur, yes quite a bit of off-camera work went into this. I probably only filmed a third of the work and then edited down about 8-9 hours of footage down to 17 minutes.

[@DanceintheRaine666]

Glad I read through the comments. Those details are most interesting. It would be very cool to know such details about every piece you create. Stunningly beautiful. The work, time & creativity you invest is prodigious...I was curious if you FEEL intensely positive...emotions as you work? I ask because my favourite definition of "High/Fine Art" is, simply, "That which makes those who view it feel INTENSE emotion." Further to that, I believe for emotion to be FELT at that point, the work itself was imbued with emotion during the creative process. Be it a song or a voice making the hair on the nape of my neck stand up...or a dance routine which transports me to a state of awe...or a work of Art...I love beauty and the FEELING I get gazing at a VIDEO*¹ of your finished piece is...indescribable. *As tech invariably REDUCES the emotional resonance of a piece: in that the intensity of emotion FELT BY one who views, say, an image in a video...or a photograph on a screen...or a poster...a high quality limited edition proof...an artist's proof...culminating with the ORIGIONAL...that emotion ratchets up in intensity as the veils of technology are removed. To see your finished work in the "fibre" must be incredible. I hope ~ but doubt ~ you arranged a voice or video call such that you could enjoy your client's reaction when they FIRST saw the result of their commission. I REALLY enjoy seeing (or hearing) the emotional reaction to my work...and the artists i support get a kick out of my reactions.

That has to be so gratifying after putting in so much work. It's probably the most beautiful woodworking I've seen. I really appreciated that you used the wood that you cut off in the beginning. Manzanita is so beautiful and I don't think it's used enough in woodworking. It grows all over Northern CA, where I'm from. Hope you got a pretty penny for it.

Love the slow motion. Haven’t done lathe work since high school and it brought the impact of the rough turning on the hands and arms right back. It’s good to show how physical this is. Also caused some anxiety as I was worried your chisel was going to catch and flip . Our shop room had a huge gauge in the chalkboard across the shop from the lathe stations from a flipped chisel. It was the first lesson in the lathe training!

The way the natural object changes and evolves in the hands of the craftsman is mesmeric and deeply satisfying at a gut level. That certainly brightened up this rainy Sunday on the West Coast of Scotland 😊

The cinematography of this little video, theatrics, lighting, and videography you have it going on with that alone but the woodwork is absolutely amazing. I love trees and roots as is but I’ve never seen this kind of work. My dad builds but nothing compare to this. Is this what they teach in shop because I should have take shop! 😅 I would love to be able to do this. It’s so satisfying to watch and hear all the noises. Fantastically beautiful.

This was definitely not a Saturday afternoon project. You have some serious time involved David. Outstanding as always my friend

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks Mark!

Once again you have turned something ugly into a master work of art. Your editing is really well done. Obviously you cannot show everything that goes into making a piece like this but as fellow turner I truly appreciate all that unseen effort.

[@onyxhoeppner819]

I've randomingly came across your channel and I am mind blown! First, I now know that there is such a thing as Woodturning is what it is. Awesome twist with the blacklight reacted materials. Its a good feeling watching someone enjoy what they do best.

This is absolutely the best woodturning video that I have seen yet! The workmanship is to die for! Thank you for posting this masterpiece.

The slow-mos are great! It gives us another perspective of your work!

[@paulerkkila8409]

What a talent, thank you for sharing it with everyone 🙏😊‼️

[@lydiabosley9152]

I just stumbled across your videos this morning and have watched several - they are quite mesmerizing! You seem to have an amazing array of tools and I imagine that they must be quite expensive...if you don't already, I think you should have sponsorship from the tool makers for displaying to viewers how they can be used. Really a unique craft, thanks for sharing!

Found your channel 3 days ago, subscribed after watching the first video. End of this one, i realized my mouth was hanging open, I was in such awe. Thank you for the gift of beauty.

[@silverlady1118]

Your creations enrich the soul From your selection of wood, colour of resin, insight as to what is possible, workmanship skills and filming Truly inspirational and a joy to watch, thank you for sharing 👍 ☺

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much!

[@toniatalley1977]

😲😲😲 Wow! That is absolutely stunning!!! Also about the comment where someone said stop with the slow motion. It's your channel. You put what you want. You got a new subscriber here

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you!

[@lornacy]

I like the slow motion parts because it's interesting to see exactly what is being cut. May I request a slo-mo of the ribbons of epoxy shooting off? 😅

[@kristenevans6782]

What an extraordinary piece. Absolutely gorgeous. And an equal amount of work to get that result!

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks Kristen!
