You should Kintsugi the piece with gold epoxy! That would look so dreamy! I love seeing you all challenge yourselves as makers, it is truly inspiring!

[@helvyrah]

love the idea!!!

[@amandagalster6918]

I was literally just about to suggest that!

[@ayyyyw1415]

I was thinking this as well! And very on brand for them to teach us this technique in order to upcycle and fix items instead of throwing them out

[@tiffskii]

That would be beautiful!

[@rachelm9925]

Yes! I was thinking the same. It would look amazing.

[@CKSage-writes]

I work with alabaster. Although I haven't tried to make a hollow cylinder, I think your best bet here would be to cut out the block, make it a cylinder and then trace the thickness you want. Then use a drill specifically made for stone to make many holes. Keep it wet so that it does no over heat while drilling. Then use a file or similar tool to remove the rest of the material. Keep on eye on the integrity of the stone. As you know, using excessive force instead of carving will crack it.

[@melanwen]

I never worked with stone, but what about that machine they used to cut the wood for the table?! But with a specific blade for stone?! (the one at 8:16, I don't know its name haha) Wouldn't they be able to use it to cut the blocks out and then refine it to the cylinder shape?!

[@fforfashionista]

I think your approach sounds like the safest way to success. With 'delicate' materials smaller and steadier steps are the best. It takes more time but that's the cost of diy, you don't have the efficiency of specialized machines of mass or semi mass production.

[@sarah.bea.]

@@melanwen you mean the circle saw? I think that might work when you have the right blade and a system to add water für cooling it down. Still might have cracked because it was already hollowed out.

[@CKSage-writes]

@@sarah.bea. I think so as well. It's best to cut out the cylinder shape with a diamond tip cutting tool and then hollow out the inside. But like I said, I've never made a hollow cylinder shape before. I make sculptures. Not a lot of need for a hollow cylinder shape, though I am now curious how I would without breaking the stone. One point I would like to make is that with other mediums like wood, you might get away with prying like she did right before the stone broke, but with stone, you have to remove the unwanted material. In this example, she should have filed it away. I would have used a diamond tipped saw blade then grinned away the rest of the shape. It becomes cumbersome to hold the stone in place at that point. I use sandbags of various sizes to hold the stone in the position I need. I'll use socks filled with sand or sew material in the size and shape needed and fill about 3/4 full of sand.

[@r.cobrehernandez5923]

yes. definitely cut the piece out before hollowing. less stress on the material.

[@modfarmgirl5671]

And now we know why the lamps were $6,000. No small task, but I love seeing your determination to keep going!

[@NaturallyGifted77]

Right! U better off buying the lamps....lol!

[@vistaoalry4883]

Suggestion for the lamp: use only the saw to cut out the base first - then go in the middle to hollow it out. Only using the saw and no drill/chisel as well as having a solid middle will reduce the risk of cracking. Might take a while but should be worth it.

[@scd8603]

I was about to say this. It was made weaker by putting the hole in it. Cut the base pieces out first and then do the hole. Maybe have the company she got the block from cut it into the bases for her and then she only has to do the hole? Idk.

[@cezza180]

That was what I was thinking as well...the drill in the middle has made the sides weaker. Also, if we can take inspo from the Terrazzo table fiasco, start small?

[@yenvo573]

Maybe use two different diameters of circles to create the cylinder, first the inner hole

[@NaturallyGifted77]

I agree!

[@enyarec]

Yes! And use water to avoid the stone getting to hot which will also lead to cracking.

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

I did stone carving in college, and every thing you do should go LARGE to SMALL. So, cut out the big chunk. THEN you shape the outer shell. THEN you can hollow the inside. THEN you further shape with sanding products. It sounds like it takes forever, and it does. Even having a whole semester in my class, and pneumatic tools for shaping, a lot of people didn't finish. Be kind to yourself and know that carving stone takes a lot of patience, and time. LOVE the table!! xoxo

[@brandipalmer29]

I am not a stone worker by any stretch of the imagination. But maybe cutting the rectangle out before the center might make it less fragile… or making the center smaller in diameter so the walls are thicker. I’m crazy impressed you tackled this project! And the table is perfection!

[@ahumanaperson]

Yh I’m not a stone worker but the second she said she would drill the inside first I thought “okay, mistake number one but maybe it will work out” and then the second I saw that chisel and hammer action I knew “yep it’s over”. This is why ‘artists’ leave pieces of work for another day for ‘a fresh pair of eyes’, because once you’ve spent so much time on such a slow (especially) first time project/ idea- you will get tired, frustrated, and impatient, and can end up destroying it within a split second. It’s so demoralising but this is the perfect example of “fail to plan- plan to fail”. Even a wood worker or chef would have advised against drilling the inside first and even using a chisel. But Kelsey “yep, first diminish structural integrity, second try to wedge the delicate piece away from the huge chunk that it is still 90% attached to”. No hate, we’ve all been there 😂 Kelsey you’ve still got enough Alabaster for 3 more try’s!!! We want to see the lamp glow!

[@cccuqi7697]

Yes! I'm not an expert either in any way, but this sounds logically right...

[@Aritzialove]

I actually purchased a set of older stone lamps a little while ago and the insides are coated with what I assume is a clear resin. I can see in my lamp that the stone came apart in some places during production and was glued back together with resin. So long story short, glue your pieces back together with resin and coat the inside too for durability. Maybe it will help? Lol good luck 👍.

[@TheSorryGirls]

wow! so interesting! thanks for the tip

[@ambernicholson6307]

Such a good note! The cracks all sealed together would look interesting I think. Give little variations in the stone that weren’t there before.

[@donnabacon4681]

@@TheSorryGirls Laura Estrada (6hr) suggested to Kintsugi with gold epoxy - that would look amazing! I can appreciate your determination & dedication - this will be so beautiful on that gorgeous wood side table - kudos to a job well done!! Enjoy your day!!

[@dominikcunningham9079]

I know a professional stone carver and she told me it is very ubiquitous to give stone pieces a resin bath every now and then.

[@MarsterKanobi]

@@TheSorryGirls I have written 2 weeks ago, a message in the comments about your lamp. Some have written to glue it together gold epoxy glue. I'll offer a slightly different take on it. Try reading what I have written in the comment. Plus I think there are some who pretend to be you, who hand out gifts if you send them a message to them.

[@Rebeccayume]

You have to use a lot more water when cutting into stone, not for the dust but for your tools, to prevent breakage by overheating. Also maybe cut the blocks first and then hollow them out. Can’t wait to see the results and the final makeover!

[@jjfrank]

ALWAYS ALWAYS tie your hair back when using a Lathe! I promise you don’t want your hair caught in one of those! The outcome is beautiful though!

[@nicolepascucci8225]

GREAT TIP. I’ll add if you longer hair opt for a bun or a pinned up/back braid to avoid the ponytail accidentally flopping forward when you lean over🫣

[@Firestarter.999]

I had anxiety too, watching her, especially when she bent over to pick up the sandpaper.

[@phangirlable]

lol I just left a similar comment. In school back then I was a couple of centimeters away from getting scalped by a woodworking tool because idiot me waved my very long ponytail around.

[@phangirlable]

@@Firestarter.999 Yes, that moment did it for me too. o_O

[@amyberkheimer7996]

[@BritLovesDesign]

Petition for Rochelle to be the 4th sorry girl. She’s always coming through 💪🏼

[@ACC-2929]

Definitely love her!

[@jessicaobrien7465]

Just a word of advice. Please hold the lathe chisels closer to the guide. The guide is there for your hands. Holding it so far away is super dangerous. I know it's scary but trust me, its so much more dangerous not holding them correctly. Don't want any of y'all to get hurt. Awesome video again girls!

[@jojosolo521]

I've done a little stone carving in alabaster in college! We had a student that specialized in it. We used pneumatic carving tools to rough the shape out first. If you have access to a band saw it might be handy to cut the rectangle out first, rough out the oval with multi-clawed chisels, then drill the center hole. Or personally, I would ask the art store to get me in contact with someone that works in large scale stone carving, like the person that was going to buy that big piece of alabaster.

[@jojosolo521]

Also good luck! It is amazing to see you take on these projects and step out of your comfort zone!!!

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

I just lft my own advice from college! I went to BGSU.

[@jojosolo521]

@@Leslie-wb8cb nice!!! I've heard great things about their arts programs!

[@crystalcharee57]

I respect the hell out of the ambition of these projects. I've been watching long enough to remember when a hot glue gun was your only power tool, so -- YES! I love how the table turned out and now I'm fully invested in your alabaster lamp. :)

[@TheSorryGirls]

Still Stan the hot glue gun 🤍 thanks for tuning in 🥰

[@GlitterBug]

I’ve worked with porcelain before, which is obviously quite different from stone, but using water not only helps with dust management but helps to lower the temperature of the blade as it cuts through the material, which in turn helps lower the risk of breaks and fractures!

[@lydiacongdon8135]

You originally loved the marble look for the lamp, maybe consider binding the pieces back together with colored resin. I'm thinking that could work pretty seamlessly and give some personalized veins. I'd also consider getting a wet saw or tile saw just to really keep the piece at ideal cutting conditions. I know it isn't what you expected or hoped for, but I'm so glad you haven't given up yet. It will be so amazing and working in smaller chunks -even broken, means you're utilizing as much material as possible. If none of that works out, make a curved shield-like piece and adhere it to a simple wall sconce. If this wasn't a KZbin comment, I'd draw it out.

[@carinapocinho]

I think you have to use more water not only because of the dust but to cool the blade and stone as well, to prevent it to crack and get cleaner cuts. From watching tutorials, never done it myself 😅 Hope your next attempt works ✨

[@audreyarsenault]

It is so refreshing to see uncompleted attempts in a more positive light! I'm a jeweller. This reminds me of a time when I cracked a bezel while setting a $200 tourmaline stone on a sterling silver and gold ring. It sits unfinished on my bench, but it will be completed one day just like your lamp will!! 😁

[@destri.]

What about a marble utensil holder/vase for the base? And maybe a stone bowl for the shade?

[@LoriM222]

Those are great ideas!

[@destri.]

@@LoriM222 thank you! I hope its helpful lol

[@stanislavas1110]

My thoughts exactly 🤣🤣🤣.. actually came here in the comment section looking for this. 😹😹😹

[@LoriM222]

@@destri. You're welcome! I wouldn't have thought of that and if that alabaster doesn't work out, she could certainly try your ideas!!

[@jesswueb9505]

I was wondering this too! With the right finds you could just put two premade pieces together! Or using similar feeling materials and then changing their look to match the marble style. But of course i love the going for it as always and support you in all your endeavors SGs!

[@rinesun]

oh wow this was a roller coaster of emotions🥺so... this is my advice as a sculptor that works mostly with marble... If you try again, don't use the wood hole saw, try and get a diamond one and don't drill it to close to the edge cause it will break as soon and you hit it in a wrong way XS so try and give the double the space you did and you can always shape off and round the excess later😉Ohhh and hack for the future!!! - if you search how the marble is extracted they do pre-holes and then use explosives, and sometimes they have on the "junk ward" stone with those holes intact and unbroken, then you can just shape around it, that will give you less work (end of hack) - my second advice is for you to use a big grinder with diamond ring and just do a clean cut or with the small grinder just make little cuts in opposite directions (to make little squares), this is a basic technique that I'm sure you can search on youtube and see how it's done. 😊 Marble needs love and it can break very easily, but do every step slowly and you'll be fine !! So don't give up Kelsey!

[@reneediprose3396]

I love the whole journey: " I saw this stuff; LOOK at that price tag" (at one level this is a "that cost *how much*!" on steroids) -- the research, the learning new skilz. Here for ALL of it

[@momostarkloff7284]

okay, so there is a town in italy - tuscany called volterra. currently it is most known for stephanie meyer placing her volturi vampires there, but it actually is full of alabaster workshops and artist places. and shops that sell alabaster things. the whole town is known as THE alabaster place. they do everything from statues to kitchen stuff but also actual lamps. maybe track someone down there. when i was there they even did actual workshops there for people to learn. the stuff is really beautiful and it is amazing and breathtaking to see how thin they manage to work the stone without breaking.

[@irishollestelle3819]

I really love that you showed realness in this video. That sometimes you hit a hurdle and you have to rethink and take time before you continue the project again.

[@thecunningkrugereffect]

Wow, both of these projects were incredibly challenging and introduced you to new tools/materials. You did so well Kelsey! The table came out so well and the lampshades are taking shape and in progress. There's a lot you can still do to save the cracked stone and just need some time to figure out the cutting techniques now. There are lots of clear glues that can be used to put together the stone pieces, I think it will look even better with some cracks showing, you can even fill the cracks with gold leaf or resin, and maybe introduce different materials. I have full faith in you and I know it will turn out amazing!

I have two alabaster lamps bought at a thrift shop, both of them are not without cracks, however it does not distract from the beauty when the light shines through, one of them I am re-wiring because, in fact, it was a colume pedestal which was always wobbly and chipped in certain parts, so your video inspires me to change it around as it has significant parts (6) so as I watch your second try at this I will learn what solutions I need to do too, perhaps leaving certain pieces aside!

Awesome table!!! I love it. Just thinking about your alabaster dilemma. Alabaster is basically salt. It is a super soft mineral and can stain and erode if liquid gets on it. What about two marble wine chillers with marble bowl tops? I'm crazy for marble and have four marble chillers that I use as kitchen utensil holders. I got two of them on Ebay. Worth checking out. There are second hand marble bowls as well. I use one as a fruit bowl. The Alabaster already has the beginnings of a great art piece! Love your videos!

[@LisaElevateDJ]

Kelsey girl don't leave us again we've missed you 😭

[@TheSorryGirls]

but...I never left

[@javabeanstudio]

@@TheSorryGirls But we haven't seen Kelsey since November 1st, so a month and a half is a long time.

Filming is hard work, cut her some slack 🥲

[@javabeanstudio]

@@pchypie8801 It's fine that she was gone, but for her to go out of her way to reply to that comment and say "I never left" when she was in fact absent from this channel for a month and a half is weird. Yeah, logically we know she's still around doing stuff behind the scenes, but being out of the video rotation for 6 weeks means people are going to miss her.

Ggiiiirrrrllll. You ladies always inspire me to what girls can do, but lathe-ing!!! Wow you rock! So inspiring!

[@alisonnicholson8060]

What unique and challenging projects. I felt proud for you. You are one creative force. I enjoyed the process of the table and the result is stunning and look forward to the creation of the magical alabaster lamp.
