- "Phoenix Flyby" is a clear resin wood and vase accented with Macaw feathers. The project that almost wasn't... :)
I basically spend my free time dreaming up ways to express my artistic side and simultanously to raise money for Operation Underground Railroad.

We cannot support O.U.R. enough. (OURRESCUE.ORG)

Beautiful project man, congrats! I'm from Brazil and I just love woodturning art. God bless you
Obrigado!
Artgivinghope.org
This is beautiful, I love it. I worked with kids for 23 years, I know your contribution is appreciated.
Thank you very much!

Oh my goodness. I nearly cried with you when I saw the pressure pot split in 2! Great save. Your work and ideas are so inspiring. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Jenifa! That project was a beast!
Artforour.org
Thank you for sharing this. For all of the challenges, the final result is quite beautiful. I appreciate you sharing your tragedies and triumphs and seeing it through to the end. Improvise, adapt, and overcome!
Thank you very much! www.artgivinghope.org/currentauctions
i like learning from my mistakes but more from somebody else is more fun ,thanks from the woodbutcher
Ha ha! Then you'll feel right at home here! 😀
I think I am well ahead of you
Ha ha
Thanks, Dan, for your willingness to share your triumphs as well as your failures. I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one wondering how the heck I botched something up when I had such high hopes for a project and ended up taking a few laps around the shop to try and calm down. I love your creativity and never-say-die attitude towards each of your projects, turning out some pretty cool and very beautiful stuff after what seemed like an irrecoverable disaster. Because of your 'challenges', I'm learning something that I can use on each of my projects; thanks for your dedication to OUR, an organization that is making a difference.
Thank you so much Jesse! It's always an adventure!
Artforour.org
I love abstract. You are indeed a very patient man Dan. This shows that struggles could still lead to beauty.
Thank you Hantie! I love that thought.
Artforour.org
Beautiful work Dan.
Thanks Jack!
I watch a guy who makes huge tables with resin and wood. He treats his wood with resin that's thinned down with acetone so it soaks deeply into the wood and I would imagine that it's way easier to apply. It probably seems like I do nothing but watch YT videos, but I have a business that does laser cutting and 3D printing so when the laser and printers are running, I have spare time. ;-) I also sound like a know-it-all since I learn tricks from other people and pass them on if I think they might be useful. Sorry if that's annoying. I love the cause you're supporting and the level of expertise that you've developed. So I'm more likely to share something here.
No problem! Some of my best advances in my techniques have come from comments from folks...
Art is often a series of happy accidents. I really like this piece.
Truth! Thank you.

Well, in spite of all the angst, it turned out great. Thanks for sharing all of your problems with this. It was eye-opening.
Thank you Judy!

This is not only a beautiful piece, (like all are) and even more so is the reason for this YT site. I’m new to this channel and I had woke up one morning and this video/channel was on my tablet. I do listen to certain things at night before I go to bed, but I normally cut my tab off before I fall asleep. In saying that, I really have no idea how this site was the last thing viewed. I’m also fairly new also to wood turning with only a couple of yrs under my belt. I did have some school in this field and remembered quite a bit of what I had learned in the past. I’ve been watching a bunch of videos on this wonderful, and all but forgotten trade, as many hands on trades are these days. I don’t have any experience in using resins and I have to say out of all the turning vids using resin, this by far is the ABSOLUTELY BEST ! I haven’t seen anyone use it like you do nor the end result of a project. I’m really picky on learning from different people and their ways of turning. I just became a SUB to this channel and can’t wait to see your projects and even more to learn more about turning from this site. However, in saying all this, the best part of this site in the true purpose of your work. I have a soft heart when it comes to children and I’m overwhelmed with the time and work that you put into every piece and that ALL of it just for child trafficking. I even start getting upset just talking about it. Things that evolve abused children are overlooked so much but this one is really SICKENING in a completely different category all it’s on. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NEVER EVER BE OVERLOOKED. Speaking for myself, this matter really hits home when you have children/grandchildren of your own. I to some degree can relate to this but I can’t even imagine what the families that have suffered from this feel day after day. My wife and I lost our first child due to being a premie and organs not developed enough. At the time my wife had a Thyroid problem and it was the reason for being so premature. It’s been almost 30 years and we both have never gotten over it and will never get of it. 48 days during the 1993 blizzard in North Carolina is all we were able to have with him. This was a life changing moment in not only from losing a child but we were also young in age and our marriage. I truly believe the closeness we still have today, and having to try and understand why/what we went through has kept us together for right at 30 yrs. Therefore it was only one way this channel was brought to me……GOD. It’s only because of GOD has all this developed. I’m completely on board with OPERATION UNDERGROUND and I will do all I can on my end and anything this channel/cause needs. God bless to all the people that have made this happen.
Thank you so very much for your kind words and your support!

Lord....I felt your pain..Bet you thought of Job doing this and sticking to it. Ha ha... Big fan here...
Thank you! That project just about broke me... 😀
It still looks amazing I love it
Thank you Philomena!
Artforour.org
The wood was surprisingly luminous--a very pleasing effect.
Thank you Scott!
It's by far the best "woodturning" project I've ever seen. Nothing went wrong. It was supposed to be EXACTLY as it turned out. I was skeptical when you were gluing/joining the feathers but the end result waohed me. PERFECT AND EPIC.
Thank you Michael! That was quite the project!
Artforour.org
Love how you had the idea and just went for it. Leonardo started with art. (did he?)@@artgivinghope
amazing master piece...unique art..salamat god bless.

You bet! Thank you!!

Thank you Joe!

What a beautiful pot!!
Thank you!!
“We don’t make mistakes, we have happy accidents!” Bob Ross.
Truth!
Nice save Doc! I can imagine how awesome it would have looked with all the feathers had things not gone sideways on you. In the end, it’s a cool looking piece of art!!
Thanks Chris! Too painful to think of what could have been.... 😀
@@artgivinghope Dan - never what think what could have been - been there and is not worth it. Just go on, can't go back.
Truth!
If your shop walls could speak🤣. I'm glad you won the battle. It still turned out pretty😊
Truly!
Your determination is amazing.
Thank you! That project was a bear!
Artforour.org
Wau, das ist wunderschön 🤩 Das hast Du toll gemacht👌Respekt. Wäre froh ich könnte das auch 👍
Thank you very much!
Artforour.org
You are hilarious. Nice save. It looks great!
Thank you! That was a beast of a project....
Artforour.org
You are priceless to listen to. I laughed and self-related all the way through!
Ha ha! At one point I totally recognized the insanity that was happening.... 😀
You know what ? This piece is still awesome.
Greetings from Portugal
Muito Obrigado Marie!
Artforour.org
Thank you so much for attempting something with those feathers! I’m so sorry there were so many struggles on this one. It still turned out absolutely beautiful like all of your work does! Do you want any more feathers?… Lol
I will definitely be revisiting this idea!
@@artgivinghope 😊 We have a few more feathers. I’ll drop them by next time I pass by.
Awesome!
Absolutely fabulous
Thank you very much!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
You know what? If I wasn't following the story, I would not have known this was not planned. I sincerely really do love it. The wood is beautiful, and the feathers are more subtle Than how it started out which is so lovely.
I do have to admit I was giggling through most of this project, and a few time I outright laughed! Im not sure if it was with you or at you!!!!! Lmao! JK. Honestly, I think it is fantastic. xo
OH, And I really like the wide crack at the bottom with the clear resin. Just saying.....
I giggled to when he attached it to the car to get it out of the pressure pot.
I'm glad it made you laugh! 😀
You should have seen my wife's face when she saw our cars lined up.... 😀
@@artgivinghope that would have been funny, but as a crafter I understand the frustration you had. Have a great weekend.
I got so mad at one of my 3d printers that had been messing up endlessly and nothing I did would make it work right. So I took it apart down to the very last screw...unhooked every connection on the motherboard. I mean, there wasn't another bit that could be taken apart. Take THAT, 3D printer! I showed you!
Ha ha!
Your channel name might really be Sufferfest Wood and Resin.
The result was again spectacular!
Ha ha.. on that project i really did suffer. 😀

Lovely piece,really fine work. And you sir are one good dude
Thank you so much Jason!

Thank you! Much appreciated.

Gorgeous!!!🤩😎❣️
Thanks!

great video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!!
Artforour.org
Dan - the end result is very nice. The wood and the feathers have a unique look and texture to them. Good combination.
As a thought for another project where you are trying to "embed" something in the resin ... you might try using some fast-setting resin (perhaps even UV resin) and use a paintbrush to build up the resin in the cutout until it is about an inch thick. Then glue the feathers (or whatever) to that resin. Then, either pour or use the brush to fill the resin into the cutout. This would allow you to turn the inside and the outside without ever hitting the feathers (or whatever) with the tools. It would also mean you would not have to spend as much time getting the cutout quite as smooth and sanded.
The extra time it would take to build up the inside resin layer would not really take any longer than it did to do all the sanding of the cutout and the difficulty in getting the project out of the pressure pot
Good ideas!! Thank you.

It's a beautiful piece and fascinating (and sometimes painful) to see your process and recoveries to make this come to life. Great organization for your support too! Thanks!
Thanks! This one was a battle...
I really like it with the feathers missing. It gives it a sort of windblown look.
Agreed! Kind of an action shot...

Wow I really like this one!! I have two parrots myself that I've been collecting feathers from to do a project. However, they have been so stubborn with their feathers its gonna be awhile before I can make that a reality. Anyways, I really hope to see another feather project from you soon!!!

Lovely vase/bowl. It took a lot of effort and probably a great deal more swearing but we’ll done. I have 4 parrots. If you ever want feathers let me know.
Cool! Thank you.
It's really quite cool. Nice recovery Dan!
Thanks Tim!
It looks amazing, Thank you for sharing your video.
Thanks Mark!
That's a great looking piece. I very interested in getting something like that for myself.
Thank you Emeterio!
Artforour.org
I still think it looks pretty good! I always get tickled when you start with a GIGANTIC block of wood and end up with a fraction of wood in the finished piece. (I know that wasn't your intention)
Phoenix Flyby V.2 will be the masterwork!
He he! Thank you.
This is STUNNING Dan! And ya know, sometimes, a person just has got to cuss. Beautiful work.
Thank you Kelli!
