Blaise Brogan thanks again so much buddy this is such an awesome piece of chuck 🤓🤣👍🏽👌🏽🎺🎺

[@music4sherry]

Ha ! Bet you were thinking, ''Gave that bug*er an £80 burr and he's never used it''. Seen your website some nice wood ... will be ordering something.

[@honeybunny2807]

If sealed with resin it would be a beautiful sink bowl for a bathroom! It's just so gorgeous!

[@tandiparent1949]

You're absolutely right!! I'd love to have a sink with something like this for the tiny home I'm in process of building....it would be perfect.

[@tinalopez3045]

My thought exactly!

[@eligebrown8998]

THATS A SWEET IDEA!

[@bchambliss264]

Absolutely love this piece. Reminds me of some of the things my grandfather made, he didn't use a lathe because he was a poor farmer in West Virginia with 9 children (1927 was when my dad was born and he was #9), so his creations were for functionality and everyday use, but nonetheless very beautiful and are now hand-me-downs in the family over 90 years later.

[@phillipbartlett1819]

I have to be honest, I don't think anything is more boring than watching someone do woodworking until you. You, my friend, are awesome. Your the quirkiest person I've seen. Love your channel and started watching your son now. Love your attitudes. You make it fun and entertaining. Thanks

[@cele25736]

Man when I saw it I immediately thought to preserve the cool bark in clear resin and making a sort of box with the bark top being the lid

[@victoriagreenfield5781]

I thought that encasing that top in resin and making it into a little table would have been super cool.

[@natashafieldhouse1935]

@@victoriagreenfield5781 I love the piece he made but your idea sounds great. That would have shown more of the character of the live edge and detail of the wood. X

[@victoriagreenfield5781]

@@natashafieldhouse1935 Agreed! :D

[@kezkn]

Exactly

[@SurleyBlaine]

I was thinking that too but, I've seen some of the other similar channels saying the issue with that is the bark would separate from the wood at some point. Not right away but he would need to have resin over the bark and onto the wood to give it the chance.

[@stitch626aloha]

Nick, your channel makes me fondly nostalgic for my late grandfather. He'd have LOVED your channel, as he was a GENIUS with woodworking...

[@texanasimmons1761]

OMG!! I LOVE THIS BOWL SOOO MUCH! You did a magnificent job letting the bowl tell you how it wanted to look. I really love all the imperfections you left in the piece. Id love to own a true work of art like this. Thanks Nick

[@freddieannt3354]

I gotta say it. Your talent is obvious. I want to add how hilarious you are and so much fun and entertainment. And omg, very handsome! Thank you!

[@devengossi2567]

Setting the emblem in resin is exactly what I was hoping for, thanks for doing that and please do it in more works

[@BiterAvid]

The Cutest Brit in all of England. I could listen to his accent all day. And the Making is a Bonus. I went to KZbin to study British accents. I had shared one of Nick's vids on my facebook where I have 3,000 followers and I made a comment that I loved Nick's Yorkshire accent. (Really, I thought that was why he was making such a big deal out of Yorkshire Grit... LOL.) So right away, Ana, a good friend of mine on Facebook corrected me saying the accent is NOT Yorkshire, but Southern. So this was all new to me and I started researching British accents on KZbin. It was fun and fascinating. Such a smallish area with so many very different accents (some of which I would need subtitles to understand). When I attempt to do a British accent (with my American ear), I start out sort of automatically Irish and then it quickly morphs into a really bad Scottish/Welsh mish mash. But I love doing it. End of my accent rant.

[@elizabethkrueger7492]

Hello from sleepless Oregon! 😂 I love watching your videos. They always are entertaining but calming enough that after a couple they help me fall asleep (and because I suffer with insomnia, that’s a great thing! 👍🏻)

[@hokiepokie333_CicadaMykHyn]

Insomnia just means that you're not getting enough morning wood...

[@queenbee3647]

😳

[@queenbee3647]

I love your channel, your art, your sense of humor....so yeah Im not going anywhere! Stay Arty!

[@tanyabarker4406]

Wow, I love that bowl, some lady is going to be so proud to use it. Love watching wood turning.

[@jcee8493]

1:50 OMG I almost cried at how organized that is, lol. No more funky baggies of random dyes laying around 😃 ❤️ You have turned the wart into a bowl that I want ❤️

[@Spicy__Fox]

I am in love with this bowl! I absolutely love burl. It has the most beautiful patterns in it 😍

[@daviddonaghy6494]

I’m finding I enjoy watching your videos more than any other wood turner. I learn much more.

[@joj0jo408]

Bobby would be so jealouse of your wewd 😂. I love you both and this is really cool!!

[@barryfields2964]

I’m only 4 minutes in, but I’ve just got to say. I can’t get over the fact that someone gave that to you! That’s hundreds, hundreds of dollars.

[@Rubs]

The first music track used for the time lapse felt so chill, it was amazing! You should definitely use more similar to it

[@rcrow2011]

Beautiful, beautiful piece of art Nick! Rewatching it a year later & still love it 😀

[@davidnielsen4490]

Beautiful piece of work. I would love this bowl on my counter holding fruit. Nice job Nick.

[@scottsimpey2965]

Absolutely gorgeous piece Nick. You definitely did that chunk of wood great justice. Love the humor that you put into your videos and well love watching your videos. You really keep your audience interested in your videos, even if they are longer. Where as others others I have watched I just get bored with if they are long. You do such beautiful yet very “funky” work.

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Absolutely amazing, gorgeous, awesome bowl!!! That grain is so sick, and I'm so jealous of your lathe!

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

It's absolutely fabulous! gorgeous colour and pattern

[@rigger8722]

Good job Nick. Lovely finish on the wood. Were you not tempted to go for a semi-live edge? Enclose all the bark in that lovely clear epoxy resin - then mill down. I humbly suggest its a win win win win: 1 - You get a smooth balanced load on the lathe, 2 - you won't lose any of the bark spinning off on the lathe, 3 - you get the live edge of the wood and 4 - you get the practicality of a uniform edge on the top. Like what you did with your badge - it certainly won't be coming out now.

[@schellbescott4689]

I can’t tell you how much I look forward to the little glove snap in the viddys. It makes my day.

[@neversuperfennecwarrior9486]

The crack in the resin matches the live-edge of the burl, it was a great design choice to leave it there! In my own opinion at least!

[@ManCrafting]

I have to say. This is one beautiful piece of wood. The grain is just fantastic.

[@russellcox9037]

That would’ve made a beautiful globe with lighting! Have u ever made a globe? With blue acrylic for the water? With oceans and rivers and lakes?

[@feather3520]

I think this piece is my absolute favorite of all the ones I’ve seen so far.

[@michaelhallowell7631]

Daaaaaannnnnnngggggg Nick I love your Videos and all your work. You bring Joy to me every time I watch!

[@natashafieldhouse1935]

Lovely piece of wood. Loving the live edge. Adds so much character to it. Another brilliant piece from the epic Nick Zammetti. X

[@patricialessard7150]

Good morning from New England! That's one beautiful bowl! Can't believe all the character in that wood, it really is awesome. Bye for now!

[@MVets23]

when you first started turning the bottom (around 6:40) the colors make it look like Jupiter! So cool!

[@SixRavenEight]

I adore burled wood, you're so lucky to have such a beautiful piece! I'd love to have that bowl. Excellent video, Nick! ♥♥

[@nickzammeti]

SixRaven Eight thanks babe x

[@jodidavis6595]

I have never watched a video and NOT laughed out loud. So much talent in one man. Looks..duh! Humor...double duh! And craftsmanship galore!! Love watching you and how sometimes you just wing it..no real plan. I guess some ppl's brain just wrks that way. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽

[@RobertHickok]

You really should sandbag the heck out of that lathe to reduce wobble and vibration. MUCH safer and more comfortable to work on.

[@rharbarenko]

I think this is one of my favorite projects I have seen! Well done Nick. Anyone else think they see Nicks face on the bottom of the bowl 23:15?

[@Valkyrie2421]

Been waiting for this all week, loved watching teasers on Instagram, and now its here!!! Happy Funky Friday

[@elizabeththomas8395]

Absolutely gorgeous bowl. Should be shown in a gallery.

[@JordanWoodwerx]

Great job Nick, that was lathe was dancin pretty good!!

[@basilkearsley2657]

Wow I have been watching this channel for over a years and this is the first time I have seen what started out as a BIG bit of wood or resin and it did not end up the size of a match box by the end of the video. Well done

[@johnscarboro5943]

I'm glad you changed the shape Nick. It turned our awesome 👍🏻

[@lauraofiel7005]

Absolutely beautiful. I’m glad you left it with all its natural beauty. Wonderful piece.

17:53 There's that catch you were talking about and how the paper just rips off.

The resin is an awesome idea. The bowl if fantastic and so glad you rounded the bottom edge of the bowl! From Texas, and from a woman who would love to do this!

[@katcankan7129]

I love it! 😃. I wasn't sure whilst you were turning, but it came out better then good. Well done 😊👍🏼

Nick that fruit bowl is gorgeous. The grain in the wood is beautiful. You need to do more like this one with more raisin colors like green red orange and etc.

Glad to see you back on the lathe!!!

[@TTSHAWNA2]

GORGEOUS! Maybe try some non slip under the legs or screw legs into floor.

[@HumpeGirl]

Shawna Fernandez i think you risk damaging the floor if you screw it down. Something about the vibrations and stuff ...

i watched you pick out a color and said "aqua" and you did it. A beautiful chunk of wood, and it is a beauty!!

[@gailbolton4891]

I'm wondering why no one ever seems to use amber color resin with wood. Does everyone think that might look too natural or something?

[@lilolmecj]

Gail Bolton he has one called gold Lear, the resin looks amber. I love the way teal looks, thougg amber might be great too.

[@gailbolton4891]

Wow, Nick, that is definitely one of the prettiest pieces you ever made! It's just amazing, not only the grain of the wood but also how you brought it out. Woodworking at its best. My congratulations to the one who will be the lucky owner. I'm jealous. 🙃👍🏻🌳😊

[@angelaj2771]

Seemed like a bit of wrestling and a bit of wood working blended together. The crack in the resin maybe fill it with a melted metal silver brass gold something that shines up nice

[@jarrodbarrera6708]

How you haven't broken anything or gotten hurt is beyond me. Amazing work. That piece looks like ashwood to me but without holding it it's hard to tell. Keep it up love your work.

Finally a new video!!! I’ve been checking over and over all week and finally here it is another amazing video

[@alloftheabove1231]

It looks nice i would have covered the burl in clear resin then turned that then hollowed the back out like i was making a box then made a clear resin table top lid then turn a flat area at the bottom (where the burl is) then put a metal stand there to make a side table with storage

[@srqlisa7881]

Glad to see that air filter was changed. The bowl looks magnificent anyone would be proud to have that. ;)peace

I love seeing people work with wood Burl's. They always have such beautiful grains.

[@rosemaryvardanega4674]

Nice bowl, love it 🥰 would love if you could make one for me and send it to Australia, but made with Aussie wood.

[@barnabas3652]

Loved it! One of your best projects yet! I know you don't do a lot of big projects, but when you do they are fabulous! Next time you tackle a piece of wood that big however, you might consider a following system so you can get two to three bowls out of the same hunk of wood instead of turning everything into glorious beautiful shavings. And the fact that you left the crack in the resin goes so well with the rest of the piece. Job well done!

[@plasticbutcher]

That turned out awesome, miss the Wednesday waffle Nick, Rick B aka Plastic butcher
