I just went to buy this and it was also on sale before I applied your discount code. Bonus, got to love a good deal. Hope my man loves it.

I think it's really cool looking

Sweet!

ITS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT PERFECT AND THE PIECE OF INTERIOR WOOD IS BEST PART

Every time a insurance commercial comes on you are the first person that pops in my head. Now doesn't sound d to bad till u realize I'm on here all day and play games on mobile so hundred ads minimum a day half are the lizard so u are on my min all day. Little unsettling

[@patsymillar9447]

Many years ago, my family and I, visited the Waterford crystal factory, where we were shown a one off piece. The glass blower had blown a bowl which on inspection showed a row of small bubbles. It was about to be smashed, when an engraver stopped him. He took it away and engraved a gold fish below the row of bubbles. It's now on display in the Waterford crystal museam. So you see, on man's imperfection, is another man's inspiration

[@mikkohernborg5291]

If you ever have a similar blank with lots of bubbles and want to try something different, you could drill long and relatively thin (3mm?) channels into it (so that all the air chambers are connected) - which can make a lot of different patterns (from the 'bottom' only for a less invasive look, parallel lines all the way through for a stricter feel, or spherically oriented towards the center for a 'starburst' effect), then fill in the voids with coloured resin - fluorescent with a UV light would make it pop (if the UV can penetrate deep enough into the resin, it tends to soak up a fair bit). That would make turning it a bit easier, as well. Just a thought.

[@askara_755]

Kinda like the jelly cake art? They inject colour into clear, set jelly with needles and syringes. I watched some of that on Netflix this afternoon and you could be onto something.

[@akuamcclure4456]

I was thinking the same thing filling some of those bubbles with colored resin!

[@jloughland]

That is a great idea!

[@myathehappy_1]

Darn i should have read the comments first, my thoughts exactly!

[@tony69em]

Sounds really cool

[@VondaInWonderland]

With the wood, and the bubbles, and that color, it looks like natural Amber. It's absolutely beautiful! I'm so glad that you didn't put it in the bin ♥

[@cherizangel]

It reminds me of honey that has started to crystallize.

[@lisachatham1127]

Looks like the amber that started Jurassic park. Awesome mess up!

I’m deeply sorry for your loss. I have lost my Dad as well as my wife’s Dad in this year. My dad died of cancer and died in his sleep. My wife’s dad got taken from Covid-19. Within a 3 month span. These videos are my inspiration to create!!

[@rachealsmith5138]

I remember that project where that wood got stuck in there. It is so cool that you keep those so-called failed projects, and come back and try and do something with them. That wood sets off the light really really nicely! Another great one! Take care and blessings!

[@missmud2053]

I knew straight away what it was from because I just watched that video three days ago 😂

[@gorillaau]

Resin isnt particularly cheap. Dont throw it away, upcycle it.

[@blessedandhappy3921]

Hey Nick👋, it’s midnight in the states and I’m so glad you posted a video. I can rest well knowing that the big “Z” is still working his mojo with wood and resin👍. Well, and anything else he can glue,screw,tape,nail,bolt or clamp on his lathe😱. Really enjoy your channel mate, let the good times roll !

[@scottreed991]

Can I get a sample? Peace

[@Master_Failure]

What happens if you put a fish tank bubbler in the bottom of a resin bowl (or cylinder tube) and run it while curing? Does it give a gradient of bubbles from many to few?

[@ASWilshire1]

I love it, Nick. So glad you kept it and made something beautiful from this "failure".

[@Jayelsea]

Absolutely LOVE this lamp. It's stunning! I wish these items you make would be up for sale. Would love to own an original Nick Zammeti piece like this! 🥰🤗

[@hamonabicycle]

He’s got an Etsy shop! Just type in Nick Zammmeti. The lamp is still for sale.

[@Jayelsea]

@@hamonabicycle thanks. I'll have to relook 😂 I did look last night but didn't see it on there. Not on Etsy or his reg we site. 🤔

I am a huge Bob Ross fan, I learned so much about art from him. And to see this “Happy Accident” turn out so amazing, even Bob himself would give you a big thumbs up!! I certainly did!!😉🤩🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤗

[@queenbee3647]

Your videos are always fun and creative. Lovely color Nick. 👍 As always STAY ARTY AND WAFFLE ON. Cheers.

[@uniqko]

I really like it when you say "look at this" Thanks for video... You are so amazing....

[@Lisa_The_Norwegian]

I know absolutely nothing about woodworking, but these videos makes my brain happy. And when it becomes all smooth and shiny, all the satisfaction ♥️♥️♥️

[@1edgeman76]

Hey Nick, I am a new sub. I found you over this past week, as I have been recovering from a major surgery. I just want to say, I LOVE the ENERGY you bring to your videos! I have seen a lot of wood and resin turning videos and with your videos, I have finally found a permanent home. You remind me of myself in my craft, filmmaking, and I am always trying to find ways of keeping the crew happy and delighted on set with the same kind of zany energy you have. AMAZING WORK, and thank you for putting a smile on my face, even through the pain.

[@nickzammeti]

🙏🏽

[@libertygiveme1987]

I swear, before you said - "It would make a nice Bedside Light," I was thinking the SAME THING!!!! GREAT JOB Nick!!!!

[@IamLinda_]

That is really neat looking! It would make a nice bedside light! I had an idea for a project. Make something with broken up cds.

[@SD-oi9gr]

That’s the best thing about art. Even the failures can be successes if you think hard enough. Id happily have that light as a lower level mood / reading lamp next to my bed. As the God king Bob Ross said “happy little accidents”. Thanks for reminding me!

[@karacoop]

Thank you for warning about the lights Nick! Not many people would be so considerate of the people with conditions like epilepsy and migraines that are triggered by lights ❤️

[@MrErViLi]

I've always loved the unique pieces. Wood turning can be so...Ikea sometimes. Have you ever thought of trying alabaster or soapstone? I just recently found out you can turn rock on a wood lathe with carbide tools.

[@lkdenve]

Awesome outcome. Love seeing you take “failures” and turn them into cool things.

[@kathleenmholland8055]

Oh, it's got a lovely, warm glow. And yes, it could be a reading lamp. You never know, Mr Z!

[@lisawood-bradley8250]

I love love love this! And I also love to keep disasters because they can often end up as amazing quirky works of art.

[@robinsonkaspar3395]

A mistake and a discard, with some care and effort, can be revealed as something lovely, something beautiful. This speaks to me

[@samanthahughes7783]

Your vids truly always cheer me up Nick, however down I feel, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I lost my husband back in 2015, and I know he’d of loved your stuff, which also gives me a smile.

I can see it on a pretty wood base with lots of swirls and some live edge. Go for it Nick. 🇺🇲

[@johnoconnor4941]

The best thing that excites me about your channel Nick, and I honestly mean this, is the words 'I don't know'. Too many see others an copy. You 'redesign' previous projects. Loverly

[@Charlielizard]

Love this one. Autumn is my favorite season and this one has a Halloween look to it. Really beautiful.

[@williamhenkels75]

I’m so happy to see your notifications that you have a new video!! I hit the like button FIRST before I even watched it because I always like all your videos.

I do that too!! And share as well.

[@williamhenkels75]

I do Kat;-)

[@JessiFayS]

Would have been pretty if he'd put the solid part down towards the wood piece and the bubbles at the top. Just sanded where the bubbles are instead of breaking off the interesting part.

[@sonjahesse1089]

See, Nick, you don't make failures. You've gone back and made some really awesome projects with them. This turned out really cool!! I really like it!! ♥️♥️

[@mel924]

This turned out so cool! I was hoping you`d do smething with this piece.

[@starfire1963sn]

There are no mistakes, only happy accidents or so Bob Ross always said. I love how your light turned out, it is cool.

[@gidgemo1869]

This shows how resin yellows with age perfectly…it looks like you had colored the resin when you definitely hadn’t. (I just watched the video where you “messed up” - which created this beauty!) Great job! This shows how perfectly you use your creativity!

[@michaelhofer9149]

That is totally wicked! I love the way you turned the resin and I was really impressed when you cross drilled the wood base to conceal the wiring for the light!

[@Cruzdeonnaify]

I love all the projects. It's not just destination that I love. It's the Journey that I enjoy as well.

[@mama2three786]

Beautiful 😍 Would have loved to see what you could have made if you had tried the vac chamber (to fill the bubbles with a slightly different color so the bubble look wouldn't be lost) to be able to do what you had originally wanted, though. Too bad you didn't have 2.

[@pedrotenn2007]

It’s awesome and love the ambiance the light casts. Beautiful!

[@craigesmith4835]

[@hlhs42]

I love how your brain works! I like to imagine what something will turn out like & you always put a funky twist in the project & it works out! Thanks for the little escape from the real world.

[@charleneeaster6886]

I love it! You could make a bunch of these in different colors and have all kinds of lights. That is if you can recreate the bubble effect.

[@robertr4193]

It looks pretty cool. It's also good that you figured out a way to salvage the Goof up so the resin wasn't wasted.

Before you start, it looks like a Brandy snifter that was being stirred and you froze it in time. It is so cool!! Can't wait to see what it turns into.

[@Datrebor]

I think it turned out rather amazing. I love how it looks and I think it would maybe even better with different colors with the light. Well maybe it would. Another great video that was fun to watch.

[@susanheston4483]

It looks like an explosion you captured in resin. The light is perfect, you can see everything. I'm glad you saved it. Nothing is ever a mistake, just a future piece of art.

Fair play Nick that turned out awesome it's a shame you can't remember how you achieve the bubble effect I reckon lamps like that would sell for a tidy wedge .

WOOOO not several years late to a video this time! Idk how the project looks yet, but I know it will be awesome, like always!

[@akuamcclure4456]

Nick this was a neat piece to begin with. Maybe the little bubbles formed because the stir stick was so porous and there was a lot of trapped air? Then when that resin started to heat up and create thos larger bubbles it pushed the air out of the wood? REGARDLESS it looks really cool! I love it!

[@emmkaa2099]

[@stephanieruggles7783]

I would have casted another portion of resin around it to keep more bubbles against the chip out. But it looks funky anyway. Nice to put some light in to enhance the effect of the bubbles. Glad that you didnt put it in the bin. So keep,calm, stay artful, inspired - and waffle on.

[@eunicewoodhouse6531]

I love it. I was watching the video when it was a mistake but I knew I would see it one day and it would be a beautiful piece and it is!

[@ravenmacbeth9384]

Love the waffling and the piece looks super funky. Kind of looks like you carved a chunk of amber stuck in some wood. I wonder if you could do something similar if you filled the bubbles with something. Maybe some colored resin or something else. Could look pretty cool.

[@paulhopkins1905]

I gave up on micromesh years ago. Power sanding with a 2 inch pad on a right angle drill, up to 10,000 grit works way better. It doesn't leave linear scratches like micro mesh. Also a good plastic polish works better than anything else. The Novus system is the best I've used

[@squeakymoma]

[@grannyLynnsCreations]

[@chrisdavis1722]

This is a cool mix of modern and industrial. It looks great! Not bad at all for a project redo 👍

[@SunGem]

You could have put it in a bigger container, filled it up with clear resin with glitter, put the whole thing in the vacuum pot to fill the voids with the resin, then cured it in the pressure pot, before turning it on the lathe. But it still looks amazing as it is!
