Woodturning - The dreaded project what took me over a year to finish

[@carlsale957]

Thank you so much David for your thoughts, artistic visions and putting up with me for a year. You have produced a magnificent urn for me one beyond what I had visioned. It truly has been a pleasure working with you.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 🙂 Much appreciated! It was an honour you trusted me to make this special project. Wish you many many more years to observe the piece from the outside 😄

[@patricandsandrawaters6482]

Hey David. Just found your channel. I understand the pain you were in dreading this project. I've been dreading doing something special for my dad's ashes for almost 3 years now. Seeing you make this, gave me a great starting point and the fire lit under my backside to get started. Thanks and my condolences

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much!

[@BigWillDaBeast6483dbeievdjd8ue]

I'm sure you will make your father proud!

[@NOOBCRASTINATOR69]

I mean do as u please but he's dead now he won't know..spend this much time with someone who needs your time..(I also don't have a dad btw)

[@snowysnowyriver]

​@@NOOBCRASTINATOR69Wow! What a nasty comment.

[@angelamartin7535]

Such a beautiful custom piece of work for Carl to enjoy while he’s here on earth. When god’s calling for his child to come home he will have a special place for all his family to enjoy being around!🥲

[@MsWDWFAN1]

I'm at a complete loss of words! 🤯 I have never seen anything so stunning! 🥹 The amount of time, blood, sweat, tears & love you put into this piece is unparalleled! I saw Mr. Carl's response and I can tell how pleased he is. As he should be! 😊 I know I'd be proud to have my ashes displayed in a work of art! 😊 You should be very proud of yourself Dave. 😊 The piece is stunning! 💙 Bravo! 👏

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 🙂 Certainly one of my proudest projects to date. The complexity, size, materials and achieving so close to what Carl wanted and envisioned in his head makes it to the top even on my own ranking.

Agreed! I love waking up to God, my coffee, and David's wood turning😇

David, You have my sincere condolences for the loss of your much loved father. This urn is a beautiful tribute to him. You have truly captured the spirit and love from your soul to make this amazing urn.

Thank you

This is STUNNING. I am flabbergasted at the level of talent and artistic creativity.. Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 😀

[@jenniferhart559]

It reminded me of a globe at first, then I realized it was an urn. Fitting metaphor that the loved one meant the world to someone ❤️

[@karlpopewoodcraft]

Hi David, just found your channel last night after a horrible few days in hospital with my wife, we came home and relaxed by binge watching your content. 😊 thank you

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Glad to hear this Karl, thank you :) Hope you are both okay!

The urn came out absolutely gorgeous. The burls with the blue resin are stunning together. Lovely tribute piece ❤

Thank you so much 🙂 Much appreciated!

[@LaRosi0114]

This is insanely beautiful. Absolutely breathtaking.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching 🙂

[@rroe5718]

Very Stunning Urn. Hope everyone appreciates your efforts and especially the cost of materials for this. Mallee burl and resin prices are through the roof and you certainly have used a good portion in your project. Super Job on this and great engineering efforts in your layout and construction.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 🙂 Much appreciated!

[@angr3819]

@@DavidsWoodturning Have you ever thought using lace, perhaps from disused dresses from your wife or someone? Or other fabrics? Perhaps some foodstuffs such as dried lentils, various coloured peas and beans? Perhaps sand or different coloured sands in clear resin? Shredded used paper (not small cross cross shredded but longer lengths bundled together) for a different textured look? Only ideas which you might or might not like. Best wishes.

This is amazing. I just lost my dad this past week and I was brought to tears. You are a master! I’ve inherited his lathe, I hope I can make beautiful things like this. 😢 Keep up the great work keep inspiring the rest of us to make beautiful things.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you! I am so sorry to hear your loss. It is an unbearable pain but will ease by time. Sadly,I know this well from my own experience. :(

[@cripnite]

Beautiful. Didn’t even clue into it being an urn until you put up the card. Carl was my Grandpa’s name too.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you 😀

[@Broody4Boglim]

Very beautiful and thoughtful. My heart goes out to you the difficulty of this project lay not with the turning itself (though skill there is). I set out to turn my fathers but my step mother requested a more obelisk form and I made her 1 large one and mini ones for the kids.....she loved them but they were hard to work on.....again my thoughts go to you.

So why did it take a year to make?? It is very beautiful and you did an excellent job making and turning it!!!! I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 😀 Firstly, I was always against making an urn. Just because what they are for and I did not feel it connects well with me and what I do. But Carl described his idea to the project so well and looking at his passion and desire about the urn made me want to do it. I knew it will be challenge from the size, brass threading, white swirls etc. So I kept planning, testing and waiting for some other stuff and time flew by.
