[@RawrLollipop4]

You're the only one who has videos that I will thoroughly watch. Congrats.

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Awesome!!! Finally a woodturner has mixed the leftovers with resin! I think I've commented on everyone's channel lol... Nick is the perfect guy for the job!!! Can't wait for the next video!

[@dougbish1728]

The green and blue one would make some beautiful knife scales.

[@CarlJacobson]

They look awesome, I can't wait to see them turned.

[@nickzammeti]

Carl Jacobson hey thanks Carl buddy 😜👍🏽

[@danielmancini1051]

Carl Jacobson your a master Carl Jacobson

[@crankypantsmcduff]

You make the most beautiful pieces Nick. Awesomeness.

[@apehangercreations6265]

Nice to see your creativity with resin and how you represent Minnesota...

[@jimmysalsbury3880]

The spectraply is amazing. That video turns up every where now. The one with the vase. Really cool stuff.

[@nickzammeti]

Jimmy Salsbury thanks buddy yeah it went nuts 😜👍🏽😜

[@xMourningStar]

YAY the spectraply shavings! Add some metal shavings or just glitter to give it some sparkle!

[@ajrjejsmom]

Your channel has turned into my happy zone. Beautiful work.

[@nickzammeti]

hey thanks amazing thank you

[@JohnnyBosniak]

This was the golden era of NZ videos. Like the Nick Zammeti show. Not too focused on the production, just spending some time with Nick.

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Next time you do this, you can save some resin and put a waste block in the middle of the mold. Would give you a solid piece of wood to connect to your lathe! They all came out amazing and the color choices was brilliant

[@Ibaneddie76]

Great idea wish I would have thought of that a few weeks ago.

[@gemofthewoods5802]

Hi Nick-I'm fascinated by your wacky mind. I was wondering if you've ever used a hollow cake pan for a resin pour? Betty Crocker bake and fill cake pan might allow you to do layers of craziness. Just a thought😃

[@Amanda-eg8lh]

These are amazing! These would be pretty cool to see turned into something like a cup or tea cup or even coasters so you can see through the resin and see all the shavings!

[@cherihazeleyes]

Omg. "little baby cups" love the way you said that. You're so much fun to watch!!!!

[@rickjr111589]

those are REALLY cool!!!! Love the ones that are natural, but the blue and green one is EPIC!!!!

[@Supersquishyawesomeness]

Stupid question I’m sure but I’m not familiar with these processes. Is the pressure pot used to remove the air? I’ve seen crafts done with resin that use a torch to remove the bubbles after it cures. I’m assuming the pressure pot basically removes that step.

[@ldg332004]

Simply amazing, whatever shape you decide with the blanks they are going to be awsome pieces for sure.

[@janeenhodge441]

Your not your goofy silly self... Be yourself don't let viewers tell you how you can be! It's your channel! Tell em to piss off! ♥️🐾🙏

[@michellepfefferle5617]

I'd love to see shavings of neon crayons. I think it would look amazing

[@LestatTVPickle]

Love the blanks, especially the green one, being as it's my favorite color! Thanks for the entertainment Nick!

[@lara-brandoncabazos7076]

To be continued? Why must you toy with us?!? Those blanks are awesome! Can't wait to see what you do with them.

[@nickzammeti]

Lara-Brandon Cabazos lol hehe 😊 sorry 😜👍🏽 thanks for watching Lara

[@barryfields2964]

Lara-Brandon Cabazos he toys with us to keep us coming back

[@justiceblackwolf369]

Lara-Brandon Cabazos he has us addicted 💯 😂 cant wait to see them either 💞

[@CMTHFAF]

Yep. I'm with you. He's toying with us.

[@Mattys91gt]

Did he ever do anything with them

[@bobbyhempel1513]

I love that green and blue together. I can't wait to see what you make from it.

[@brazilianjk]

I didnt even realize how excited I am for these projects until you started mixing the resin in. Now i cant wait~

[@EnduroMo]

Awesome Nick. Looking forward to what you make with them.

[@celestinedunn5855]

They all turned out great! Wonderful idea for recycling the shavings. Will be looking forward to what you'll make from them!

[@HeathKnuckles_Tasty_Timber]

Sweet! Can't wait to see how they turn out! 🤘

[@nickzammeti]

Heath Knuckles haha thanks dude ✌🏽👌🏼👍🏽😜

[@lapadatflorin7397]

Snake wood

[@VelocesArmadiu]

That pun is awful and I absolutely love it.

[@stevebrown1132]

Great idea Nick! Thanks for what you do and for sharing it with us.

[@brendafifer8139]

the blue and green one and the one with pink remind me of pictures of nebulas. awesome job.

[@danielmancini1051]

Can’t wait to see ya turn it. Your an inspiration to me. I can’t wait to be physically able to turn again, so that I can try some stuff you have done.

[@fthurman]

These are so very beautiful - great eye for colour mixing with the wood!

[@janolson9592]

fantastic work you do!This is the only video channelI have ever commented on,keep up the good work, mate

[@nickzammeti]

hey thanks Jan., thats really cool

[@gagecolson]

Those mica powders are beautiful! Looking forward to the end result!

[@GothicPhantomZero]

Those look really pretty! Lol love the Back to the Future III photo of Doc and Marty next to the clock 8D!!!

[@MultiTom1956]

Those blanks came out beautiful! cant wait to see what u make of it :-) thanks& looking forward to part 2:-)

[@herecomeskelsey28]

what does the pressure pot do? does it take the air out of the resin? is it necessary to the process

[@just-dl]

"always best to wear protection" - now you tell me....4 kids later.... ;-)

[@leapinglemurcraftworks6426]

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I had the same idea when I planned 70 bf of sapele and saw all of the shavings on the floor and thought what a waste. I have no experience with making my own resin moldings.....yet.

[@echogrotz1567]

If you haven't made anything with these yet, may i recommend candle holders? The cylindrical or slightly shaped ones for pillar candles...

[@christmassnow3465]

You can carve-out beautiful planters for cacti & succulents, and for bonsai too.

[@STOPH3R01991]

A little pro tip to help you mixing resin. If you go to the local thrift store, you can find mixing beaters, like you'd use for baking and if you install them on a drill, they're perfect for mixing resin. You can get about 30 uses out of them, before either cleaning with a grinder or just tossing, but it'll save you so much time, compared to hand mixing and you'll get better consistency every time.

[@frankierzucekjr]

What a tease. I'm ready to see all of them done

[@andreabenz1199]

Your projects are beautiful thank you for sharing them. I stumbled across your channel about the beginning of June 2018. Now I'm hooked on watching it. Fantastic work

[@margeryk6596]

Nick, You should let the viewers vote on which one you end up turning. Make a little contest out of it..... The blanks look great and they will all be beautiful with whatever you decide.

[@nickzammeti]

Margery K hey good idea but I've already done this now dam 👍🏽 next time

[@jeffreybolling8223]

Those turned out great!! Can't wait to see what you do with them!

[@paulurbaniak2242]

How about dipping a sponge in resin? This could get you some interesting results when turned. Just an idea... Greetings from germany, Paul

[@nickzammeti]

Paul Urbaniak hey cool idea man . I'll try that 😜👍🏽

[@paulurbaniak2242]

Nick Zammeti NZ WoodTurning Nice. Good luck😉

[@Roboboy17]

I feel like penetrating resin might be a good idea for that.

[@oddaudiocrafting]

Rewatching and I know a couple of these have been turned, but have they all now? Would live to see all of them; also at one point you mentioned the green/purple spectraply shavings not seen here were saved. Thanks for sharing! Love watching your turning projects and even these blank making ones!

[@tomwilhelm545]

nice: I tried this mine turn out on the rubber side ? may the wrong resin? there about 3 month old and still soft -time for the burn barrel. your really look good.

[@luckyduckie2000]

Love the green too! Can't wait to see what it turns into.

[@allofusmoreofus2281]

Ingenious use of what waste wood. Look forward to seeing how the green blank turns out. Subscribed .

[@sirsmartypants7086]

The green one looks awesome

[@michaeloconnell1720]

Very cool blanks. Looking forward to seeing what you bring out of them. Maybe something Celtic/Irish with the green one.

[@hobbyturner6634]

I honestly thought they would come out looking like garden waste! but you have made some lovely blanks !

[@nickzammeti]

Adrian Moore haha thanks Adrian

[@ManCrafting]

Can't wait to see what these will look like turned. Between you and Heath and all your amazing resin projects, it's just a matter of time before I plunk down the bills to set myself up the start making my own.

[@nickzammeti]

ManCraftingTM hahaa thanks buddy . I do love using resin 😜👌🏼👍🏽

[@roadstar499]

Very cool..Just can't tell how much resin you used for all those tests.. Can you tell me approx amount of resin by volume needed is needed for 1 liter of fine saw dust??? i also will be using it to fill hollow objects i make for strength only...so it does not have to be so runny.... i am hoping 7 parts saw dust to 1 part resin will or less will work... i can use a stick to fill and don't need to pour...any feed back is appreciated... thanks

[@louispittman2047]

could you have video on what resin you use and your air pot to help use get started thanks

[@KissaMeAssa]

Absolutely adorable, cute accent and seriously talented. Well done.

[@headerie]

Can't wait to see what you do with these awesome blanks!!

[@Ibaneddie76]

Those look awesome can't wait to see what you turn.

[@SalviMithrin]

Fantastic video. Thanks. I wonder if those shavigns won't remain too smooth having not been stabilized previously. What do you think about?

[@chasebenner7939]

Watching this in 2020 and it was an awkward silence when you put the gloves on 😂😂

[@GiraffeFlavoredCondoms]

I thought the same thing!

[@kerielwatson3197]

He's become much more bright and confident from these videos. And better editing for more interesting videos.

[@Kimo0tJJ]

These look really coooool~ The blue and green one is gorgeous!

[@10224me]

Do you coat the plastic containers before adding the resin or does it just not stick? I am just beginning to play with epoxy resin and not sure what is best to use. Thanks

[@MichaelZurcher]

Noooooo....You can't leave us hanging!!!!! Lol They turned out awesome!! That green one is my fav....Hurry up and turn them I want to see :)

[@nickzammeti]

Michael Zurcher hahaa lol thanks buddy

[@shelbymedina521]

What a cliff hanger!!!!! The wait is killing meeee

[@sandradarling396]

Love love the one with green

[@leksey7870]

Ready to tokarki. It is not necessary to wait until dry!

[@nickzammeti]

Аleksey Bek what's a tokarki? 😳😂

[@leksey7870]

Work on a lathe, a brief tokarka.

[@dawnmason9558]

The purply blue one would make an amazing tealight burner so the light shines through.

[@michalsiegel1242]

Awesome looking! Why does it have to be put in the pressure coocker?

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Nick, if you're ever looking for some crazy exotic wood and burls, I know a great eBay store that has the highest quality of exotics! exotic-wood-n-burls is the name of the store, you'll see a crazy wooden sculpture that they created for their picture. You can probably just search for black and white ebony, iron wood burl, Asian Satin burl, Sinora burl, Wild Almond burl, or Mun Ebony and find them. I believe that they ship everywhere, and they do both buy it now and auctions every week! Tell them I sent ya 😀... truly amazing people, it's all family ran from getting the wood in Laos to making the sculptures and then cutting and selling the wood!

[@nickzammeti]

Phillip Taylor hey thanks buddy I'll look this up mate 😜👍🏽

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Nick Zammeti NZ WoodTurning no problem! Just leave the Asian Satin with birdeyes for me!!! 😂👍 I have every piece they offer and pretty much everything is ready to turn besides the B&W ebony. It takes awhile to dry, so it's covered in wax. But the iron burl is crazy wicked, some of the best pieces have awesome bark inclusions that you can add some epoxy and pigment and make an incredible piece of art!

[@he-mansuncle7661]

Nick Zammeti NZ WoodTurning Also, do you know if the guys you get your epoxy and pigments from ship to the states? I can't believe how hard it is to find pigment, that isn't so damn much! I only need 3-4 colors and not that much of any since I'm doing 2 projects with it. Hell, I'd trade you some wood for pigments lol 😂😂📦🇬🇧🛫🛬✈️🚏 I do have some killer pieces haha

[@CMTHFAF]

Cool! Very exciting blanks!

[@justiceblackwolf369]

yesss been waiting for this video ! black/pink looks like galaxy ! blue/green looks like peacock, and if you have any left overs still of the specialty shavings you should do a pen 😍 cant wait to see you turn these 💞

[@rickhenderson5328]

I'm having trouble mixing the resin to the right consistency. Any chance you can help me out with this. Thank you

[@nickzammeti]

Keep in warm place. and make sure you use exact measurements.

[@stevecourtneyscalekustomz2602]

The purple pink one look great

[@tonywalker8030]

Like the purple, you save your waste, that's good, I just might purchase one from you.

[@noodlesonafork8787]

I love the greeny blue one, it's a lovely colour, the purple and pinky one reminds me of a galaxy. A suggestion tho, those colours in resin would look beautiful with some dispersed sparkles. Maybe some holographic glitter to give a star like effect 😃 Your awsome, keep creating things because you have a real talent 👍 xxx

[@TXetc]

They look like candles. Put a wick on top and troll your friends with them lol

[@scottrobinson2482]

MT: Gear/Man Stuff/Nature/Etc imagine them trying to light it 😂😂😂

[@capramanegames2778]

You should turn these into planets!!

[@daviclemons6910]

Yes!

[@ThatNerdyCatholic]

Yes!!!!! Cut one in half and put in a large but flat piece of wood and make a Saturn with the colored resin the planet and the wood into the rings.

[@punkyfeathers1639]

Capramane Games that’s an awesome idea!

[@jessiehoodjr7806]

I just wish I could do what u do

[@TheNursesArtandGaming]

Have you tried this with resin shavings from turning resin projects? I am curious how it would turn out. Also what do you use to make your resin projects nice and shiny and clear when finishing? I’m having a hard time getting a shine on mine

[@joshtonry4291]

I'm going for the blue and green one! Theyre beautiful

[@donnymcarter]

Going to be some cool turnings!

[@Patty-ki1to]

Love your work. While watching this video I was thinking next time miss dark and light shavings together.

[@jbn0613]

Hey Nick, nice work once again! What are you using to get the post pressure pot pieces to slide out of the containers so easily? Looking forward to see what you turn with these.

[@TheWoodWerker]

Came out Nicely Nickster! They look Killer Brother! Have A Super Week!.....Gus

[@nickzammeti]

TheWoodWerker thanks buddy .. you too man ✌🏽

[@JohnClothier]

Loving this one Nick. I recently made a pen blank with left over sycamore shavings. I think its great way to maximize your return from the wood. Looking forward to seeing what you turn with that blank.

[@RuthPletz]

That small purple one would be excellent as a small change bowl.

[@SgtCude59]

I really love your work with the resin stuff I got a question why use the pressure tank . and what kind is it , i am thinking about making the wife and I some of those thing with all the color stuff , I liked the one you made with alum shavings in

[@lynnebabb5349]

That was a great idea. Let's see what you make.

[@paunk271180]

Hey, do you pour some liquid or what, so you can easily take out the resin from the pot... Tq...

[@lorrainesaltmarsh2836]

I don't know why but for some reason 1 out of my 3 cats will watch your videos with me. I am usually lying in bed watching on my tablet and my cat lays next to me watching as I watch. Sometimes she tries to get so close to my tablet that I can't see. It looks like you have another fan. We will both continue watching your brilliant projects. Thanks for sharing.

[@browndog9402]

Awesome content as always, the green one for sure.

[@dlhummingbird]

I have a question on the feather bowl that you made. Wouldn’t you save a lot of resin if you put a smaller bowl into the large one after you mix in the feathers? I would think you would use at least half the resin.

[@donovanleeds4012]

Assuming you're not concerned with the air bubbles in the initial mix of the resin, would there be anything wrong using a paint stirrer attached to a drill?

[@stewartgilbert76]

Looking forward to seeing what you do with those cool blanks 👍

[@jefferylee9347]

Everything I've seen you make has been awesome

[@melanie2663]

I've not turned resin yet but I wanted to know if the pressure chamber is essential? I've seen some resin crafters using them and some that don't use them. What's their function?

[@SBDScott]

Haha... I wonder what the bowl shaped one will end up being... Pretty cool looking blanks. Exciting projects headed our way!

[@SBDScott]

Or... we may only see one of them turned. Either way, great job!

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Can you use a syringe for the coloring and add it after all is mixed. So it would leave a stream of color throughout? Maybe even swirl the syringe as you pull it out? Just an idea.

[@billsutherland2128]

Heck, they all look like hospital jello to me! Great video, Nick.

[@emmachruscinski8454]

I think some coasters would be really cool !

[@jennaeasley2277]

Do you have links to videos of you turning these blanks?

[@Zenith12321]

For the pink, purple and blue shavings from the vase you could do a stacked coaster set?
