Saving a broken vase - Woodturning

[@BartdeJong85]

It's become a hybrid! Possibly even better than the original idea. You could make a whole range of these..

[@rpc717]

Agreed. It's a unique and beautiful piece that never would have come to be without that "accident." It's a good reminder that mishaps aren't necessarily disasters - they present opportunities to break out your ingenuity and craftsmanship.

[@CMTHFAF]

I am a little late to the conversation, but totally agree.

[@kimberlyokeeffe5360]

Great 'save' with the vase! I am a knitter. When there is that kind of mess up in the project, I call it a design feature. Also, my grandfather had a woodworking shop in the basement and I spent many quality hours either watching or helping. Every time I watch you work I am brought back to the smells, sights and sounds of Grampy working on something. Thank you!

[@colie563]

WOW! The finished piece is even cooler than the original - serendipity!! Thank you for allowing us to see that even professionals still make mistakes. 😊

[@3r1creations]

Do it again . . . DO IT AGAIN ! Mr. Olivier, this is fantastic. One Of A Kind. There was an American painter that would teach on Public Broadcast TV, named Bob Ross. He would always say "We don't make mistakes -- we just have happy accidents." No doubt, an accident can cost an artist time and money. However, in the USMC, we learned to overcome, adapt, and improvise. That's exactly what you did. If I could afford even one of your pieces, right now - I would want this one. Well Done. It's beautiful.

[@deetanner7153]

There are no accidents in art....only possibilities....awesome!

[@khatfull]

I like it as much if not more than the original. You must see in 3D in your head like most of us don't because when you pulled out the piece of ash and started turning it I couldn't figure out where you were going until it became obvious. Really excellent.

[@Fuck_YT]

Can you only think in 2d?? Oliver is very skilled but I dont think being able to imagine a 3d object is exactly rare or impressive by itself

[@CathleenDensmore55]

I have admired your creativity and works of art for sometime.To see your sense of humor and anger management was charming. Son ,you made a fine glass of lemonade this time around!

[@elainehoward8822]

Hi Oliver, OMGOSH WOW, I am sad for you that your project got broken, but what you did with that wood log, is just astonishing. It turned out looking equally as beautiful as the first one you did (off camera). Thank you so much for sharing this video with us, as always you worked wonders xx

[@hbrealhousewife2270]

It is very nice. I think I like it better with that plain wood at the bottom. Well saved!!!! 👍

[@Jukka70]

Now here's a real professional artist. Not only do you fix something into a beautiful piece of art, but you show everyone that even you make mistakes. Complete respect for you. I wish I had 100th the creativity that you have. There's no way I would even know where to start. I'd kill a piece of wood just trying to start. Had enough trouble in wood and metal shop in the 7th grade. And the teacher is the one that did all the hard work.

[@BeastOfSoda]

This is a great reminder that while woodworking videos are relaxing to watch, from the craftsman's standpoint the process can be anything but. The end result was gorgeous either way, it's very unique.

[@jaredstarnes6668]

Need a punching bag in the shop 💪🏼😉

[@kahoycrafts]

Him smashing his hammer on the workbench is my favorite part. I'm always getting angry with my projects. 😂

[@jarmstrong2843]

It’s ok to be frustrated and to take those frustrations out on an inanimate object. That’s actually a healthy thing to do. Going further and acting against people and animals isn’t good. On occasion in the past, I’ve done exactly what you did when something goes wrong. It’s a good release of anger. As for your wood turning, it turned out to be a great save and creative way to salvage something once thought lost. I think we all learned something from you on how we can salvage a wood turning when things go wrong. I like the way you used a natural edge bowl and shaped the segmented bowl to its shape. That was pretty slick thinking and wonderful creativeness!!! Great job, Oliver!!!!👍👍👍

[@chefdianenomore]

"Le Me." Priceless. You're the son I never had.

[@lexitivium]

Very nice emergency contingency plan! Top nice result 👍

[@allgavesomesomegaveall3247]

I can't explain why I find watching these videos so soothing....but I do. It's the perfect mix of watching you woodturn with glimpse of your personality. Also crazy jealous of how your mind can see what you want and "turn" it into reality. 😉👍...your talent is the videos and beautiful items you make...mine is stupid puns. I feel like you got the better end of the deal, but I'm ok with it. 😁

[@scottblair8625]

That's a badass fix sir. Love to see craftsmanship is still alive and kicking.

[@katiebellmichelle]

Nice save! It turned out really cool 😎

[@blazehammer192]

Way to keep going! Its beautiful. Showing off where it had once broken is a wonderful way to bring new life to something

[@randycosgrove3608]

Nice save. I always call things like this S.D.E., serendipitous design enhancement.

[@peterverkon3893]

Nice save! Nothing will humble you faster than reviewing a video of yourself throwing a tantrum. We all doit. I felt your pain. Been there too...and it turned out beautiful!

[@Iskander1968]

Think I actually prefer this end result to a full segment vase. Lovely contrast between natural base & mechanical body & flute. Great save 🧑‍🎨

[@rayworstine4399]

Well, that ended up very nicely. One of those, 'How did he do that?' pieces. Love it.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Magnifique. Cela s'est avéré magnifiquement. You took a disaster and turned it into a masterpiece. Well done.

[@markkurzynski]

Sometimes things need to go BOOM before something beautiful happens. Nice work.

[@KrisWood]

That's even lovelier than the original plan, Olivier, if I'm going to be honest. Kind-of like the Olivier Gomis version of Japanese Kintsugi. Splendid work.

[@aucuneexpertise9805]

Excellent le "contrôle de la colère", j'adore :)

[@chocolatefrenzieya]

"Le me" haha! You're the best, Olivier! Great salvage job, it's gorgeous!

[@elisabethfall2151]

Magnifique, à le voir fini, jamais on pourrait penser qu'il s'agit d'une réparation, il est trop beau

[@marjallahhaze1893]

on the one hand, sorry your project got broken, but on the other hand, WOW at the finished piece. utterly unique and I love the mix of the 3 types of woods.

[@Disinterested1]

given simply the volume with which you create, these things will periodically happen to everyone ... the trick is in the recovery! well done!! and glad it didn't clump you in it's bid for freedom!!

[@Evgeny100lyar]

Отдыхаю глазами и душой на Вашем канале. Спасибо.

[@MDeLorien]

Voyez, ce fût un mal pour un bien. Le vase est absolument magnifique👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Nul besoin de s'emporter pour aussi peu 😊

[@shirleycranswick8476]

That was one hell of a save Olivier! A beautiful and unusual piece that i think is more interesting than the original. Bravo.

[@Maatjuhhh]

Even the new piece has textures that followed the flow of the "broken" line. So satisfying and dare I say, more beautiful than the other one. Great job!

[@Alovatololo]

I love your creativity. Your work is beautiful.

[@Tinatortoise]

If you hadn't told us, we would never have known. Beautiful x

[@merrylty7632]

Le résultat est vraiment joli! Bravo pour ce rattrapage... en beauté!

[@kerrystimpson5111]

Very nice save. You do AMAZING turnings

[@titeuf2705]

Bravo Olivier tu l'as super bien rattraper félicitation

[@Chazbridge]

That actually turned out beautiful! Nice save !!

[@michaelcunningham2105]

Not a possibility it is a great save and a better idea. As a painter said one time. You don't make mistake. You make happy little accidents happen. This has great accent and character. Something that was meant to look like it is a great piece of artwork, as well as a functional piece. Who can ask anymore, that's because something don't go right doesn't mean you give up. So stay strong and believe in yourself. You just keep have happy little accidents. And if you were to keep it to yourself the only one that's going to know is you. Why everybody's doing admiring your work. No never know that it didn't start out that way but it ended in a great piece of work. Thank you for showing just that.

[@montialarson]

It's good to know I'm not the only one who has trouble controlling my anger. I think it's really cool that you're honest about it (and joke about it). You taught me to not throw away my failed artwork, but to turn it into something even better.

[@ingridbaasbecking2999]

What a beautiful solution! Love the piece.

[@satyr997]

Simply elegant - and the repair appears like a special design. Somehow it's reassuring that mishaps occur to you, too, Ms. Gomis - I already started to think you were such a master of wood turning and especially design that you turned into something 'perfect' - but that would have killed the spark of living art. ;-)

[@mareene6803]

Frustration mise à part, le résultat est finalement absolument génial. Une nouvelle voie à explorer... 🤔😁 Have fun! 👍🏻

[@verabolton]

Broken yet beautiful. Just like many of us in this life 😍

[@detodosmoles]

Geez you have such a good eye for cutting and matching the 2 pieces!

[@Solubois]

Belle réalisation, c'est magnifique ! Je n'avais jamais vu ça auparavant ! Belle innovation !

[@penicillatacynictis9683]

C'est bien qu'il soit tombé finalement : superbe !

[@rebeccak918]

I love this piece! You're always able to think of really smart ways of doing things (like using a compass to follow the curve) and it's one of the reasons I'm subscribed :)

[@pman2916]

I have no idea what it would have looked like but DANG!! this is STUNNING!

[@j.l.thurman2725]

What a save! What an original beauty!

[@ronnie100393]

Excellent work,you always amaze me with your talent and your design, you have a lot to bring. Have you ever been published in the AAW magazine. Someone should get behind you and bring you forth ! Always look forward to your videos, keep them coming!!!!!!!!!

[@anniefly9024]

Bravo! I love the lines that you choose Olivier. They are always so soft and fluid. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@hildebecker2016]

Looks as if it was supposed to be like that from the beginning, gorgeous!👍👍👍

[@sophiegenin4557]

Bonsoir, très beau résultat en fin de compte. Bravo.

[@gregj2647]

Nice save. A real design opportunity

[@bazin-c]

Well that turned out awesome!

[@mikekirkpatrick293]

Beautiful and interesting regardless.

[@mrmike1700]

Great save. Your a really good artist .

[@donasimmons37]

I actually like it better than the original design! Well done!

[@annwahlstrom149]

Such a wonderful vase you made out of that mistake. Very well saved!👍

[@guitarjack508]

Dude,... you're a genius. Also like what you did with the licorice : )

[@champaignken]

Another amazing and beautiful object.

[@cheryldidur2300]

It turned out to be a stunningly beautiful piece!

[@coloringwithd]

Wow. That’s a great fusion. Nice going.

[@fredrichardson9761]

Nice recovery - looks amazing!

[@richardmason902]

Beautiful as always

[@carlhobbs1015]

What a talent you have Amazing work, great save

[@byronkunold9160]

Nice save. Looks beautiful

[@PeterOConnl]

You are a genius my friend.

[@jillmenter5628]

Very pretty outcome. Love your talent.

[@adelinegeesey9512]

"Turned" out beautiful even if it wasn't the original design.

[@msudawgma]

that is really beautiful young man; you never cease to amaze me/us. Sorry I can't just speak for myself, most of us anxiously await to see what you're going to create next!

[@jarameyh8312]

That looks wicked I really enjoyed watching that and seeing what it looked like fully done.. awesome job. Can wait for your next vid

[@scottfonner]

Well done Olivier!

[@PittsburghFan4Life13]

awesome work!! she's a beauty..

[@jennydrumm7223]

Wow! That came out SO awesome! It's amazing! (To be honest, that piece of ash would have been gorgeous on its own; the grain that was coming out was very cool!)

[@CosmicGlitterGoddess]

That turned out nice. Good save.

[@raymondherringbotn172]

It turned out to be a masterpiece. 😃👍🏻👍🏻 love it.

[@suzetteedwards7956]

Sometimes disasters make the best results. I love the look of the final product. I didn't know Milliput could be used as an adhesive.

[@BrettBaker]

A nice piece of ash can always make your day better.

[@kumiejoubert-vanniekerk8794]

Very cool and creative save! I am glad you curbed your anger.

[@pkoppula]

That's so much better than the original idea IMO 😀👏🏽👍🏽

[@raoulchevalier3094]

Magnifique, comme toujours😁

[@caittails]

Dude, if you hadn't told us this was the result of an accident, we'd never have guessed. That's so cool!

[@barbiebozz]

I agree with many others, it turned out better and more original than planned. Also, you need a heavy bag to beat up when things do always go right.

[@stevedraper3010]

A great recovery. An interesting piece.

[@29lookingood]

It's beautiful, Olivier 💙

[@raudi42]

simply beautiful

[@wtfBrad]

That came out really great man!

[@billinfarmington5189]

Reminded me of Billy Burt who always has something flying off the lathe and breaking then putting it back together and saving the piece. Good Job! Bill

[@AllenOxendine]

Nice save, thanks for sharing. Full View and Like 👍

[@jefflabrosse7044]

looks great..... nice save!!!

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Beautiful piece and a great save. Not sure I would have thought about the milliput, but it made a very nice seam between the 2 parts. Well done.

[@designabeej]

Brilliant! I really like ur work 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@cleverduck3921]

That turned out quite nice after all! A happy accident, as Bob Ross would say.

[@maxhunt2644]

I agree, it did turn out nice!! As an aside, I was an audio/video engineer on The Joy of Painting. Bob was great fun to be around!

[@davidkreidler7552]

Fantastic save!!!

[@mikeyvwoodstuff9943]

Amazing as usual !!!!
