It looks like that bowl that every poker playing father would love. He would eat out of it, put his keys in it, or it would sit in the center console of his truck. He would tell these wildly made up stories about all the bowl was made, like they were playing poker on the beach and it got struck by lightning that melted the sand and cards into a bowl. What I'm trying to say is that looks awesome.

[@tctc8578]

I can’t “deal” with any more of this! Seriously though, never expected it to turn out so well, a unique concept and well executed!!

[@andrewboroevich68]

Yawn..

[@bedrock30_]

You really ‘aced’ it with that pun

[@TheNitroG1]

I feel like this would have been improved by making the cards more uniform, the king queen and ace that ended up framed out looked cool but it would have been nice to have that all around the outside of the bowl.

[@corncobjohnsonreal]

I think it would've been neat to see you get a few dozen decks of cards, and then sort all of the decks such that you have multiples of each card. Then you can stack them and get an effect similar to what you had with the Ace of Spades. I think that would look cool!

[@PaulPlaysMinecraft]

I tell you what watching all this videos helps me so much with stress and anxiety just melts away watching these! Thank you such good work

[@CookWoodworks]

Awesome, thanks for watching!

[@stellabelikiewicz1523]

Another cool cards in resin idea would be to do a shallow initial resin pour, wait until it reaches that super stiff sticky jello phase, and stick a bunch of cards in at various angles (no wood in this one), then do another pour that captures the cards in place. I suspect it would be a cool way to play with depth.

[@desertmulehunter]

I want that for poker chips at our weekly game. Nice!

[@CookWoodworks]

Hah thatd be a perfect use for it!

[@dannieuploadsvideos4937]

[@Newt2799]

I think it’s so fitting that the joker card fell over. I like how each card kind of has its own personality in the end

[@DeadRaymanWalking]

These woodturning videos are like ASMR for me...methinks I should watch my dad when he does some woodturning projects he does. He's made pens, spinning tops, bowls, urns, Christmas ornaments, magic wands (like the ones you'd see in the Harry Potter films), and all sorts of things. I never would imagine anyone would do wood turning with random things encased in resin :)

[@sockmonkey13]

The fact that the Joker was the card that went sideways, is so appropriate.

[@Dosbomber]

I also liked the way the King of Hearts ended up looking a little like one of those Russian nesting dolls.

I think you could’ve used a plastic bowl with release spray to easily remove it instead of all that wood being wasted. Otherwise this turned out looking good

[@CookWoodworks]

[@kittycatLOVExoxo]

what was the point of all the wood

[@Dosbomber]

As a solid block for the center of the bowl. Resin is ridiculously expensive. Use a wooden plug to occupy that space, which is going to end up getting hollowed out anyway, during the resin pouring, curing, and turning process, rather than filling it with resin and having the bowl cost 6 times as much to make.

[@maimee2angel]

@@Dosbomber I realize this is woodturning but I keep thinking can’t mold or silicone be use to replace the wood

[@Dosbomber]

@@maimee2angel The wood used to make the plug is cheap, yet solid enough to hold the entire mass of resin, wood, and anything else during the turning process. Because wood is solid and strong, it will hold up to the turning process, especially when you're using screws to hold it to a metal plate which attaches to your lathe. Silicone, in some applications, could be used to occupy the space of more expensive resin, but when turning a bowl or similar object on a lathe, it isn't rigid enough, wouldn't stick to the inside of the bowl during the "outer side" turning process (imagine a silicone plug letting loose of your wood/resin bowl while it's spinning at 2000+ RPM.. remember, silicone is not supposed to stick to things), and actually is pretty darn expensive as well.

I appreciate that even though the cards kinda got misshapen, you continued the project and displayed it proudly! your work was good, and I hope that you return to a similar project some day. I think this concept is amazing, and I'd love to see you give it another try, maybe a little selfishly cause I had really high hopes going in, and I was real sad that the cards got kinda warped by the resin

To save on resin (it's expensive) and help with the packing of the cards.

Questo video mi è piaciuto molto e guardandolo mi sono ricordata di un parente al quale ho sempre voluto molto bene: il nonno Luciano. Le ragioni per le quali mi sono ricordata di lui sono le seguenti: 01) Lavorava anche lui con il legno e svolgeva il lavoro di falegname 02) Amava tanto giocare a carte con le napoletane e quando andavo a trovarlo nei mesi estivi ci facevamo le più belle giocate a scopa e a briscola!!!!

[@tcdahn7]

Is it just me or does the red dye give it a vintage look.

[@K.J.Ray421]

It looks pretty cool regardless but a quick question. Why did you choose to put the cards in the bowl in spaced out stacks instead of layering them to make a complete wall? I know it may have taken 2-3 decks instead of 1 to have an actual thickness to it but it looks a little odd with the big spaces of resin in between.

I liked the red tinted resin in the finished product ... the blue - not so much. Very cool-looking!

[@jcmee91]

The biggest issue with this is that you can’t see most of the cards and some of them have very little left after you took off some of the resin (a red royal card on the left at 9:32). I think it would have been better to glue the cards to the wood then surround them with resin.

[@erichanastacio9695]

Could have cling wrapped the wood before the pouring of the resin. Once the resin is hard... Carve the outside, pull out the wood, then carve the inside.... Then polish all surface. The wood can be reused.
