My dirty mind read the title as ‘cock-a-licious bowl’ at first so when you used THAT clip of apple pie I laughed out loud!! Also if you tried it again couldn’t you put a smaller container in the middle to save some resin and save some corks. Love your creativity and videos!!

[@waynethompson8416]

Nick, Are the bowls you make out of that resin "food safe?" I also have a challenge for you. Make another one....yeah, I know what you said, but listen to me anyway. Fill a mould with the cork, place a wire mesh with gaps that are large but not so large that the corks will come out over the top and adhere it in place with tape or something. Then, using Blue and Yellow for the colors, pour the epoxy in through the gaps in the mould. You will probably still need to do the pour a couple of times because the cork will probably soak up a considerable amount. Would love to see the results of this process, and you are the only one that can make the miracle work! Keep up the excellent work!

That would make a gorgeous bowl for a “Wine and cheese” party !!! Lol lol. ♥️🙏🌈🇨🇦

[@timcarter1164]

Love the way that turned out. I was thinking next time you make a bowl though, You might want to super glue the cork pieces into specific pattern, so that way you can control the look a little bit. Also, for a wine connoisseur, a cork cutting board might be an interesting project. Or a set of cork in resin coasters.

[@tehladyjade]

Not sure how well the superglue would do with/to the resin, but I have seen small amounts of resin used to "glue" bits in place & cured before adding addition layer or layers of resin.

[@timcarter1164]

@@tehladyjade... I've seen several makers who use resin and fhey use super glue at the same time. Although a lot of them will use a UV cured resin. They simply put a drop between the two pieces to be glued, hit it with a UV light and it's bonded. But using the correct cyanoacetate glue, it should be no problem.

I did say I wasn't sure.

[@Mr.pink84]

Dood, the bowl looks like the Eye of Sauron from Lord of the Rings... it’s EPIC!!!

[@PhyrBurd]

I would love to see you do it again except for lining up the corks standing up inside of the mould. Maybe you could use some weights on top of some plastic wrap to hold everything down once you get everything lined up. I hope you do end up making ANOTHER cork bowl!

[@lauriepenner350]

So are the cork segments fully impregnated with resin, or are they still spongy? I was expecting you to seal them with another coat of clear resin at the end.

[@fryefoto]

Laurie Penner I’ve wondered that, too!

[@MrJsp87]

He does a lot of things that in the end I always expect him to put another thin coat of epoxy on but he never does haha

[@Reman1975]

Half way through this I really thought it would have looked more interesting if you'd turned this blank round to have the corks more to the bottom of the bowl.......... But seeing the finished piece, I have to admit that you probably made a better choice. Out of interest, did the pressure pot force the resin into the corks much? Or were they still a bit spongy?

[@hvaughan84]

I absolutely love how creative you are! You take, in my opinion, some of the BEST stuff and encase it in resin! The lego Santa in a bottle has still got to be one of my favorites. You have a wonderful sense of humor and an amazing imagination. I always look forward to your new videos! Thanks for the excellent entertainment. I look forward to your next video.

[@Sashabella1]

Question: why fill it full of cork only to grind out 80% ? Isn’t there something you could have done to cut down on wasting so many? Just curious. It’s a beautiful piece.

[@silivrengamer]

Sashabella1 unless you know what shape you want from the beginning, it’s better to have more and reduce down. It’s a lot harder to add onto it later if you don’t have enough material! I wonder this all the time, though. So much seeming waste. At the same time, you can use wood chips as kindling, garden bedding, all kinds of landscaping and decor. I know Nick’s used all the waste in the past to make more stuff so. -shrug-

[@trys9262]

@@silivrengamer thorugh by having a smaller bowl to place inside the bigger bowl, means that he can be more resoursce efficient. so like theres maybe 30mm of cork/resin instead of a solid hemisphere

It must have taken you days, if not a whole week, to save up so many corks! 🤓

[@lewisprescott1301]

Don't feel like you have to stick with just woodturning, most people will stay regardless. As someone who does the same work I always end up changing what I do and I always come back to woodturning. Seeing different things on your channel is refreshing. I'm a disabled 34 yo that works from home doing this. I live in a small apartment with my wife and two kids so my "shop" is a workbench 5 feet from my bed. That's when you know you have a good wife lol she has no problem with the sawdust ect from the bandsaw and lathe. Keep doing what your doing you've definitely inspired me to try new things from time to time.

[@annyeland5391]

On another note I’ve seen peter brown use stabilizing resin to fill in the holes of porous woods. It adds weight so maybe that might help keeping corks from floating so much? I’ve never tried it and it seemed kind of unsuccessful the two times I saw him use it... so take that with a grain of salt.

[@IamPiccolo1]

I came here to say the same. Peter Brown did something else with cork recently too I'm pretty sure. I think the stablizing resin could help in a cork situation.

I really love that you have the bowl a “lip” makes the red stand out more

[@thearmedoregoniancitizensj7911]

Now looking back at this one I still like what you did with it I think it would have been cool to leave the top the way it was saw that off and make it a lid and then turn it into a bowl but still leave the corks the way they were on the top. Maybe an idea for next time?

[@thomaslindgren4602]

I was worried that the corks wouldn’t be strong/sturdy enough to turn but you surprised me. I know it was kind of a fix it moment but I REALLY LOVE the red lip on the bowl. I really like your wide variety of projects and to be totally honest... I come more for you comedy than the projects but the projects are really great. Thanks for sharing!

[@jamescarter8813]

If you make this again you should stabilize the cork first. It would have made the cork nicer to turn.

[@brianhbinesh]

Nice try doing it the reverse carving out the “bottom” the resin saturated area so that cork is now the bottom

[@tipsygypsy3613]

That's what I was thinking too. And leave the corks protruding out at the base so you can read them. O God the bloopers! 🍻😁😂🍻

[@Tocomaco]

That too, and what else, should have laid a smaller bowl inside to cure, and would have saved at least 25 corks...that was a waste...lol

[@MrRABC1]

You could have saved a lot of time and material by simply using another smaller plastic container to hold the corks down in the larger one and you would have needed less resin and corks and would also have increased the cork inclusion in the resin. . . . but good job otherwise man.

[@valhypenoz3951]

Since it is made of bottle closers (yeah idk the name i'm french xD), wont you need to varnish it to keep it from absorbing the ambient moisture?

[@arbitrarystuff1229]

Cork is hydrophobic enough to resist moisture absorbsion. Also it's flexible enough that any slight fluctuations won't break the bowl

[@eejoker]

The cork bowl is a bit too thick it reminds me of a dogs bowl but I have to say it really is stylish and nice 👍
