Can you TURN a Swedish TORCH log? - A Woodturning Experiment with epoxy resin

Watch as I try to turn my Swedish torch log as a woodturning experiment with epoxy resin and see what happens! This experiment was not as successful as I hoped, and it's funny to watch! If you're interested in woodturning, be sure to check out this video and see how I did!

I must say, Mike, I'm so impressed by your continuous creativity. Oh, when it flew off the lathe and you said you'd put it to firewood, well...I was telling you: "No, Mike! Mail it to me, I'll treasure your cast off!" But then, you changed direction on the fly and made a tennan. I bow to thee!😊

[@MikeHolton]

Haha thanks Audie 😂

[@AlienLeader4]

Awesome work as always. Glad that you posted this video instead of abanding it. It is good to see the mishaps and how to fix them. Keep up the great work.👽

[@MikeHolton]

Thanks mate, I much prefer to keep things as real as possible

[@BritishBeeMan]

Could make a cool candle holder. I'm imaging the resing flowing red with the candle. Great to see your work around with the issues you had.

[@MikeHolton]

Not a bad idea Janes, although that is up to it's new owner as it's now sold!

[@ianmacklin7231]

Thanks for posting this - it highlights mishaps can happen to us all - but the way you recovered the project was amazing

[@MikeHolton]

Thanks Ian, I learned a while ago that the best way to improve is to always finish your project, even if it's gone wrong. You learn so much when you have to figure out how to fix something.

[@fionacrouch1732]

Hi Mike. Well, this was certainly different, and kudos to you for persevering. When you had glued the broken piece back to the base but it wouldn't hold, I thought there is no way this video is ending with Mike not completing this! 😲 And you didn't disappoint. I thought it would look good with tealight or LED lights. Wonder what the new owner has done? 🤔 Thanks for keeping your channel jam packed with entertainment, learning, laughing and heart stopping moments 🙃

Never have any luck with those things. Great job for what you were using. Hard to know what to expect from a piece of wood like that. Always enjoy your videos! Great job again Mike!

I did a bit of animation and editing for my masters but not had much chance to use it till now.

All the best, Mike

[@jonroberts1699]

Very intersting project , the fact that there is no bleeps when it left the lathe 👍 if that had of been me there would have been an awful lot of editing 🤣, nice looking bowl I love it ..

[@MikeHolton]

Haha, thanks Jon, I'm usually quite calm about these things 😂

[@lv_woodturner3899]

Wow, glad you were able to rescue this piece. When you mounted with jaws in external mode, I was concerned the soft grain of the wood may not be strong enough, and in a short time we found the answer. A very interesting experiment. A LOT of resin though, so likely the cost of the resin was much more than the torch log. We do not get these logs in the US. I wonder what the machine looks like which punches the shape in the logs. Well done. Dave.

[@MikeHolton]

Morning Dave, must admit I have wondered about the shape of the machine as well, does it cut them all in one go or bit by bit. Yes there was a lot of resin, far more than I would have liked and in cost certainly more than the torch. I had some old resin I need to use up so did not feel too bad about it. All the best Mike

[@mnp1964]

This turned out cool Mike I was scrolling around Utube and stumbled on this turning I think it looks cool we don't see Swedish logs here in Canada I really like the way it looks Blessings

[@jeffreyholland7829]

I actually like the way this one turned out. Not bad for a mass produced fire torch

[@MikeHolton]

Thanks Jeffrey, I must admit, it does have a certain charm about it.

[@TalRohan]

I like turning weird things to see what happens, I once turned a hollow mahogany egg but instead of hollowing it from the end I went into the side and hollowed out the large end of the egg befroe turning the shape, making the finished egg weirdly off balance and point heavy when you hold it. it also sits a bit point down so I made a stand to hide that so its even more surprising when you pick it up. I had to make a chuck to hold it for the initial hollowing then turn it 90degrees to shape the egg. It was great fun to do but hollowing an accurate ball in an off center piece of mahogany was quite challenging. Resin has made a huge difference to what can be turned and the kinds of projects that can be attempted, things like this are fascinating so thanks for sharing ...I like it.

[@MikeHolton]

Wow sounds amazing! Thanks 👍

[@richardhart7553]

I have been looking at those swedish logs myself and wondering if it can be done, you have now confirmed it for me and I will be having a go myself soon. Amazing work by the way...

[@davidbaxter5132]

Well Mike, that was an adventure! By coincidence, I came in from my workshop because I had a 'mishap' and decided it would be safer to try again tomorrow when hopefully I will be concentrating on what I am doing. So I tuned into your video for some inspiration, and what do you do?? - ably demonstrated that "mistakes happens to all of us", which made me feel a bit better! I can't say I will be following your lead and buying one of these logs to turn, though. I liked an earlier comment about putting a spiky cactus in it, that would have been very appropriate. Well done for selling it! Enjoyable as always, and thanks for sharing.

[@MikeHolton]

Thanks David, these things happen to all of us and I would much prefer to show it than just hide it. Funny that you had a problem just before 😃, I have a bag of unhaveable bowls.

[@williamriley-u5l]

Hi Mike, Apparently like many I have looked at these torch logs, ( Yes we have them in the U.S. you just have to keep your eyes open. ) & wondered f if it was worth the effort. Your project turned out well and has provided some good insight. I always seem to learn something and this time I learned I can use an epoxy resin without the pressure pot. ( I hope that was listed in the usual place " below ". ) Working with resin is interesting but I'm just not willing to make the investment for all of the acoutrements that go with the process. It's always interesting watching you work. I might just get one of these and work it just for the hell of it. LOL. Note to self; Tenon not a recess... LOL. Cheers, Bill Riley

[@MikeHolton]

Haha thanks Bill, I don't have a pressure pot and at present I have no desire to buy one. As long as you get a resin that can degas itself you are generally fine. I've never had any issues with any of the resin bowls I've made. 😃

[@loopinnerthe]

Determination. Thanks Mike for showing us that sometimes it is good to persevere, that there is always hope in the right circumstances. I was going to comment on another of your videos along the lines of; you always make beautiful pieces of the highest quality and finish never leaving any stone unturned to get the best out of the blank, yet do you ever consider perverting your own ethos? About making something much more rough and less finished and in that forced opposition and tension maybe you can find some new truths... Then I watch this and here you are indeed starting with an utterly inappropriate blank and exposing its flaws and its beauty and your creativity to us. Jaw droppingly good.

[@MikeHolton]

Hi Martin, thanks indeed! I'm still relatively new to turning so my creative journey is still in it's infancy. I have so many ideas I want to try the only problem I have is finding the right wood and time to do it. But we will get there and there is certainly no rush. All the best, Mike
