The Most Dangerous Turning I’ve Ever Done

[@Clowninyodreams]

It would be nice to give my wife a present for our anniversary in about a week while im deployed at the moment. Your woodworking work is always amazing and I'm always looking forward to the next uploads you make. But hopefully whoever gets it loves ot too. Also I want your splatter,

[@DavidAdamsen]

Congratulations @alexlandy8073, you are the winner. Please contact me via email at [e-mail] to share your details and claim your prize. I am sweetening the deal with an actual piece of woodturning, not just the splatter, which of course, you can decline or accept if you wish. Please reach out to me at your earliest convenience. I will wait 7 days from today, so midnight on 8/10 is your deadline. Cheers!

[@barrymorkel8799]

Your photography throughout your process was phenomenal.

[@carlspringle9342]

WOW David!!!! What a piece you have created. At first I thought a whole resin pour, thanks for not going that way. The resin style you did is awesome. You worked with what mother nature gave you and you created an absolutely gorgeous turning. Thanks for sharing David.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you very much!

[@anafavazza4912]

coincido, pensé lo mismo y tuve miedo. Esta creación es maravillosa, es escultura.

[@LitaElera]

First I didn't understand why applying a layer of color to the piece and then removing it by turning over it. Then the result began to appear, and I realized it was genius: the various successive colors that have penetrated unevenly into the wood according to its density and inclusions give it unequalled color and volume. Well done! Beautiful video again.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much!

[@jasdog71]

The black inside actually creates a sense of shape and dimension. Really impressed at how the finished object looks.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks so much!

[@Hog-g2z]

Good morning 🌅, I am new to your channel, great looking 👀 project, I have just looked back at your channel, some very interesting work projects, I have some interesting pieces to, very similar to yours, I am hoping to turn them later in the year, I need to get some resin and pigment, keep up the good work, France.

[@pannikt4615]

It's both so bizarre and so amazing ! Thank you for the video ! 😊

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks for watching!

[@Smarttip-dk3ou]

3. This video is definitely worth watching. It's magical to see how simple materials can be turned into useful and creative items. I highly recommend this video to anyone interested in DIY projects

[@DavidAdamsen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@christinadoyle2611]

I might be too late but i really want your splatter. Im a fluid artist who grew up around art of every medium...glass, wood, clay, metal, paint. I love your videos. There's two other woodworkers i watch and its so neat to see the distinct styles of each of you. Your art is amazing and anyone would be lucky to win a piece. ❤

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks for watching!

[@ForsakenGrevas]

That reverse shot of the bore entering the piece seen through the hole in the side was a great moment. I imagine setting up the cameras to catch all these satisfying shots must significantly extend the work time.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks and yes it certainly does!

[@ForsakenGrevas]

@@DavidAdamsen Well, you should know that the effort is definitely noticed and appreciated.

[@DavidAdamsen]

@@ForsakenGrevas Well thank you, I appreciate that!

[@nariu7times328]

@@DavidAdamsen I completely agree, I am regularly delighted by your camera and editing work. :)

[@tf484]

As you so often do, amazing piece. A gentle curved shape broken by the voids, really well done. Really liked the layering of color with the epoxy to stabilize was great, gives such depth. Personally I liked the natural grain on the inside, but the flat black does a great job enhancing both the voids and keeping the eye on the outside shape.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much!

[@stantheman9072]

Welcome back! Other vloggers I’ve been watching just don’t match your style, craftsmanship, or creativity. Your wood turning skills on the lathe are pretty darn impressive, too.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks for watching!!

[@cheryl3895]

It's very unique and very beautiful, like always. It get really happy when I see you have a new video out. Thank you for sharing your art with us.

[@roomi2222]

It is perfectly imperfect; just like a wicked smile ... Thanks mate for sharing with us. Loved it.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

[@johnnyb95678]

So difficult to turn, so strange to look at. Yet at the same time, I couldn't stop watching. I always enjoy watching you turn truly amazing pieces.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you very much for watching!

[@Aylen-jh6yq]

A LOT of work but awesome result! As usual these videos of yours are both relaxing yet tension inducing (due to possible breakage) That blacked out interior came out so well! I always look forward to the next one David!

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you very much for watching!

[@williamellis8993]

Beautiful, David. The effect from the multiple layers of stabilization is great. The black interior and edges was a perfect finish there, too. Congratulations on the new addition to your family. Bill

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much, Bill!

[@carmenschulz1016]

Wow! Absolutely stunning. The process was confusing until the red, but I still had no idea what was coming. I love the distressed, weathered look.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks for watching!

[@chrissimmoms1550]

Good vision and a nicely rescued piece of wood. So homany coats of TB Penetrating resin did you put on and did it penetrate to a reasonable depth each time? I must admit that one was very much dedication to the cause. Some nice shooting angles, liked the slow mo. Should be a good vid for you.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks! I applied maybe 8-10 coats total, and in theory each coat penetrates less deep than the previous one. Basically once the wood no longer absorbs the resin it can be considered stable.

[@jayscott306]

Flawless, David. Just wonderful the way you worked it with the different treatments and colours. Incredible production.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thanks so much!!

[@williamweaver4946]

"I Want Your Splatter" but not only that. This piece is gorgeous. I love the contrast from the flat black/grey to the multi-colored exterior! Great job David!!!

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you so much William!

[@peterclausen1379]

FINALLY 👏 ...Red is my favorite color and I have searched for videos, where the artist are using red epoxy. Of all the videos ive seen its almost only black, dark blue, dark green and purple - so now im going to keep an eye out for your videos in hope of seeing the reds again. Nice Vase - all though it was a little nerve wrecking along the way.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Well thanks so much! You won’t have long to wait!

[@-MacCat-]

For the first 15 minutes I thought "It's impossible to polish a turd.", but with enough talent and ingenuity we've been shown it can be done. Great work David! Thanks for sharing it with us

[@428Mario]

Great art! Is the real talent the turning or the gift of being able to see the potential of a peice of wood almost everyone would throw away. Think the latter.

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you very much!

[@MCsCreations]

Stunning piece, David! Amazing work!!! 😃 It's great to see you back! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@DavidAdamsen]

Thank you and same to you!

AMAZING! This is the kind of turning I LOVE! Even before hollowing it out...Bizarre is beautiful 😁👍💙 (oh...I want your splatter!!!)

[@alanalee9437]

The filming is so good it allows me to become completely absorbed in the process, you create tension, excitement and always something exquisite at the end. Love it

Beautiful work. As a wood turner myself. I’m curious on how many man hours you have into this project as always keep up the stellar work

It’s hard to say, but I have about 12 hours of video footage which means I might have double or triple that in total time spent over the course of about 2.5 months, interrupted by my son’s birth.

The keyhole and the view through it are quite mesmerizing! Someone did some great camera work. Very interesting stabilizing method. Another turner I watch recommends using a silicone barbecue brush to avoid hairs getting stuck in epoxy.
