Hey Ben, about painting burl. If you choose a slightly lighter base color you can use a darker wash that you wipe off the most so it pools in the deeper crevices then dry brush the peaks. That should yield a 3 dimensional dynamic look to it!
An idea I had with your ships in a bottle, how about casting the water part first then use a dremel tool to sculpt waves? Then you could have one partially submerged ship in rocky waters and sharks lurking underneath!
Next time you use a ship with a large space inside it, you can drill a hole in the underside and inject resin to fill up the cavity with a syringe. If you are bothered about looking into the space and seeing the hole, it can be angled so as to emerge from a corner or some other place hidden from view. You can even use the same batch of resin as you cover it with, just plug up the hole with some UV and harden it to seal it in.
wow you said that better then i could i was trying to think how one could fill up the dome with resin couldn't you have filled the whole thing up with uv resin since it had a clear top
@@redschafer7804 In my experience, filling large volumes with UV resin isn’t very good. It tends to heat up and/or make a lot of bubbles when it is too much, but I guess that also depends on what kind of UV resin one uses.
@@mikkohernborg5291 I think he was recommending using 2 part epoxy to fill the void and just sealing the hole with UV resin. There are some terrible UV resins out there. But, both Let’s Resin UV and J Diction UV are good, adding too much black or dark pigment will inhibit UV from curing. Also using Alcohol inks with UV prevents curing as well.. I found both of those out the hard way :) I recently heard a good tip for curing UV, place a mirror under the mold. I haven’t tried it yet but, it sounds like a good idea.
I LOVED the Jetsons when I was a kid, too!! We had the Jetsons on Saturday mornings so we could watch in our Jammies while we ate our Cap'n Crunch cereal!
I got two as gifts this past holiday season. The picture, if anything, downplay how beautiful they are. If you can save for it, I recommend doing so. You won't regret it. My only regret is that, so far, we haven't gotten one for ourselves.
Those one really brought me back, I haven't thought about the Jetsons in a long time I used to love that cartoon. It looks great I love how the colors came out on the top
That came out amazing Ben! Lol I immediately got the theme tune playing in my head when I saw the thumbnail. And it was such a clever idea to use the colour shift, not only does it give it a spacey terrain, but picked up tiny particles of glitter like spacedust in the resin too. Love it!
I really appreciate that you take the time to show yourself using safety equipment. It can be so easy to forget about important safety is when watching these videos! Beautiful work, as always ❤
Ben! I always loved the Jetsons! I watched they and the Flintstone when ever they were on! Thanks for the nostalgia! Another beautiful art piece! Love your work. ❤
Wow........that turned out even better than I thought, too. At first, I thought it was mini air bubbles around the ship........then I saw it was glitter. That added even more to "outer space" look. Excellent job!!
I like how the initial resin pour frosted the dome of the Jetson's flying car so you have to really look to see that there isn't anyone in it. Your second pour looks amazing. It resembles a nebula. It makes it look like the Jetsons are cruising over a distant planet that near a cloudy nebula.
I really like the 'disembodied' look of the upper section of the vase... like it is floating above the ship. And as others have mentioned, I now have The Jetson's theme stuck in my head now...
Watching you create these epoxy projects is so mesmerizing. I can only imagine how much work goes into making them. Count me in for a chance to win one of those dragon eggs!
That vase came out beautiful. The bottom almost reminded me of Betta fish bowl. My wife and I love watching your channel. My wife does resin creations as well and do wood working. You are an inspiration to all of us makers. Thanks Ben!
I absolutely love all of your work. It's inspired me to start saving up to mess around and try to make something cool and memorable for my late brothers. Thank you for all your content.
Those jump cuts while you set up the lathes were incredibly satisfying! The quality of your videos have improved along with the skills and creativity you demonstrate.
I just want you to know that I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I am recently out of the hospital from triple bypass heart surgery and most of my recover was recapping your videos. This one in particular has made me want to address a project I have been wanting to do for a while. Thank you and keep up the good work. Sean
I remember when I saw the jetsons for the first time I loved it it was so much fun to see. I love the swirls and marbling you got when you mixed the different colored resins. I love how it sparkled .
I remember the Jetsons. They came on after school for us. It’s funny how, when we were kids, we just knew that by 2000 everyone would be flying around in spaceships like the Jetsons! 😂😂 The vase is beautiful!
Meet George Jetson, he’s boy Elroy, daughter Judy, Jayne he’s wife. Good work as usual Ben. I love it and you’ve bought me back to my childhood. Thanks man. Them were the days.
Neat how all those different colors of resin mixed together for the upper portion; and then you have the little bits of color that peek out too on closer inspection. Cool!
It sure did turn out beautifully. It would be great too see more like this, the commenters could say to what to put in the vase. It would make for a great series.💜
I am always fascinated at how shiny you make your projects Absolutely amazing. The Jetsons was one of my favorite cartoon as kid also. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Really cool design for a vase, it amazes me every time when the resins are mixed together how they create a universe effect. I always half expect they would form a single colour. Awesome
WOW, Ben the "Jetsons" car/ship was made beautifully. Jeez, it looks so cool. Oh yeah, congratulations on the 5,000 likes in one day. And congratulations to everyone who got one of Ben's beautifully designed eggs. Thanks so much for this fantastic video, Ben.
'The Jetsons' was one of my favorite cartoons as a child! Love all of your amazing projects, your creativity shines every single time! 😎👍🛸 Greetings from North Carolina 😊💐🌟
That Malle burl is some amazing wood and when you painted it, it turned into breathtaking. Absolutely amazing Ben. I’d love to find me a piece of that wood. Congrats to last weeks winners 🎉 this vase wow

That's exactly what I was thinking! Great minds.
Now we just need a Flintstones-themed project! Great work as always 😊
Omg yes!!
I love how the sparkles from the paint floated up into the clear resin! really gives it a nice effect!
The Jetsons, resin and Ben's Worx.....Perfect together. I too remember watching the Jetsons when I was little, good memories.
I actually really like the look of the ships glass being frosted over in essence, makes for a nice unique look
I LOVED the Jetsons when I was a kid, too!! We had the Jetsons on Saturday mornings so we could watch in our Jammies while we ate our Cap'n Crunch cereal!
Your epoxy creations are like works of art. I'd be honored to have one of those dragon eggs in my home.

LOVE IT! So neat how the color shift powder created all the little twinkles around George's car.🤩
Those one really brought me back, I haven't thought about the Jetsons in a long time I used to love that cartoon. It looks great I love how the colors came out on the top
Thankyou
I really love the fact you chose The Jetsons ship for this model! ❤
The glitter around the ship looked amazing. The Jetsons was my favourite cartoon growing up as well.
That came out amazing Ben!

Oh my gosh thank you so much Ben!!! I’m beyond excited 😁
This is such a fun vase! I love the Jetsons too, we named our robot vacuum Rosie 😂
My pleasure, can you email me your details bensworx@gmail.com
Watching the Jetsons, that's something we both enjoyed doing. The difference is when I watched it, it was a prime time program.
Ben! I always loved the Jetsons! I watched they and the Flintstone when ever they were on! Thanks for the nostalgia! Another beautiful art piece! Love your work. ❤
Thankyou
I so loved the Jetsons when I was a kid I wish it was still on TV
What I enjoy about your video's are you make things that are useful and also something that is just for show and fun thanks
Thanks Phoebe 😊
What a great idea to leave the bottom clear and the vase part colorful. I love it
Thankyou
I'm really amazed every time to see how clear a project gets after the polish. Cool project thanks for sharing.
Thankyou
The Jetsons need some love, too! Great job, Ben!
Thanks Mate
Wow........that turned out even better than I thought, too. At first, I thought it was mini air bubbles around the ship........then I saw it was glitter. That added even more to "outer space" look. Excellent job!!
Congrats to the winner, this is a groovy build, the Jetsons is a blast from the past
This should please both camps, painted on the inside, natural grain on the outside. Love it. ❤
Thanks Richard
It's refreshing to see such honest positivity these days... Well done Mr. Ben.
Your results speak for themselves. I love the color shift you used. At the right angle the wood looks almost natural. Everyone will be happy 😊
My whole family is a big fan of the Jetsons.. it was awesome to see u do this project.. :)
Thankyou
I used to love watching morning cartoons before school ... Jetson's was one of the favorites too ... Love the vase ... You make beautiful projects
I like how the initial resin pour frosted the dome of the Jetson's flying car so you have to really look to see that there isn't anyone in it. Your second pour looks amazing. It resembles a nebula. It makes it look like the Jetsons are cruising over a distant planet that near a cloudy nebula.

My 5 Year old daughter loves you and she can look at your eggs for hours it's like she is in a different unaveres thanks for bringing her joy
The curve of the vase really maximizes the way light hits the bottom. Great job, Ben!😊
Love the Jetsons "car"! I love watching your videos of casting different toys. My favorite is still the globe of fur from Snow!❤
Watching you create these epoxy projects is so mesmerizing. I can only imagine how much work goes into making them. Count me in for a chance to win one of those dragon eggs!
I love watching the Jetsons as a kid
I look forward to a Saturday morning and seeing your videos each week. You come off as a lovely guy, and it's just so refreshing to watch.
The Jetsons was my favorite cartoon growing up! The vaseal is beautiful You did a great job 👍
That vase came out beautiful. The bottom almost reminded me of Betta fish bowl. My wife and I love watching your channel. My wife does resin creations as well and do wood working. You are an inspiration to all of us makers. Thanks Ben!
Wow, this turned out so pretty! I love how a little bit of the glitter ended up around the ship- it reminds me of stars.
I absolutely love all of your work. It's inspired me to start saving up to mess around and try to make something cool and memorable for my late brothers. Thank you for all your content.

Who doesn’t love the Jetsons . Another great video 👍
Thankyou
Your finishing on resin is superior to any other makers I've watched! The vase looks amazing!! Well done, as usual!!
I love how, what I guess are tiny bubbles, look like stars that the Jetsons are surrounded by. This is very cool indeed.
I just want you to know that I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I am recently out of the hospital from triple bypass heart surgery and most of my recover was recapping your videos. This one in particular has made me want to address a project I have been wanting to do for a while. Thank you and keep up the good work.

As soon as I saw the Jetsons car, I could hear the sounds as it flew. Loved that show as a kid.
I remember when I saw the jetsons for the first time I loved it it was so much fun to see. I love the swirls and marbling you got when you mixed the different colored resins. I love how it sparkled .
I love the marbling effect, and the frosting of the canopy means it could be occupied not clearly empty.
Beautiful! I grew up watching the Jetson's too. Great choice for your spaceship. :)
Thankyou
Wonderfully done! The flower selection was also spot on.
Thankyou
I remember the Jetsons. They came on after school for us. It’s funny how, when we were kids, we just knew that by 2000 everyone would be flying around in spaceships like the Jetsons! 😂😂 The vase is beautiful!
The finished result really reminded me of a snow globe. A spaceship in a globe with glitter is something I wonder that could be done
The vase is very cool! And it takes me back to my childhood watching Saturday morning cartoons!
I like the sparkles that just appear here and there through the clear resin.
Great job. I remember watching the Jetsons in the late 1960's.
I like watching not only for your fantastic work but your happy and cheery demeanour always cheers me up. Keep up the good work.
I love that you did the Jetsons. Have you ever noticed how much of the technology shown in the episodes exists today?
I love this Ben. I used to watch the Jetsons with my daughters.
Thanks Kath 😊
Love all the projects you do. You are honest and not afraid to try new products and ideas, even if they aren’t successful! Keep up the good work
The magnification from polished resin makes this look real neat. Nice.
Meet George Jetson, he’s boy Elroy, daughter Judy, Jayne he’s wife. Good work as usual Ben. I love it and you’ve bought me back to my childhood. Thanks man. Them were the days.
I love the frosted window on the ship! You can imagine George is in there! 😂🎉❤
I grew up watching The Jetsons, this vase came out amazing!!!!!
I'd forgotten about the Jetsons until I saw this. Another fantastic job 👍👍👍
Wow...that vase is stunning. I loved watching the Jetsons and the Flintstones.
Neat how all those different colors of resin mixed together for the upper portion; and then you have the little bits of color that peek out too on closer inspection. Cool!
Love the vase ! I like how some of the chameleon mica powder came up into the clear resin.That was one of my favorite childhood cartoons as well.
I love how it turned out! No flowers necessary, but they are lovely, too!
It sure did turn out beautifully. It would be great too see more like this, the commenters could say to what to put in the vase. It would make for a great series.💜
I am always fascinated at how shiny you make your projects Absolutely amazing. The Jetsons was one of my favorite cartoon as kid also. Thanks for sharing it with us.
It definitely turned out really nice Ben! Glad to see the ship videos make a return!
Thanks Josh 😊
Love it! The Jetsons is still one of my favorite cartoons to this day!
Really cool design for a vase, it amazes me every time when the resins are mixed together how they create a universe effect. I always half expect they would form a single colour. Awesome
For your next ship in a bottle, I'd love to see the ship Serenity from the show Firefly.
The Jetsons was a staple in my interest in spaceships and outer space in general. It was a good one!
Fantastic job Ben. Very nostalgic too, like you I remember watching the cartoon. If I'm honest I kinda miss it, too! And so glad to see the burl back
Thanks Glyn
This looks amazing. I loved watching The Jetsons. So this brought back memories. Now i feel so old. 😆
You should make a mold and cast your burl in resin especially if you paint it! That way you still get the cool shapes without needing to pay so much.
WOW, Ben the "Jetsons" car/ship was made beautifully. Jeez, it looks so cool.
Oh yeah, congratulations on the 5,000 likes in one day. And congratulations to everyone who got one of Ben's beautifully designed eggs. Thanks so much for this fantastic video, Ben.
Its amazing how much color you get while still using black! Well done Ben! Another masterpiece!
'The Jetsons' was one of my favorite cartoons as a child! Love all of your amazing projects, your creativity shines every single time!
😎👍🛸 Greetings from North Carolina 😊💐🌟
I can’t say how long I’ve been waiting for this “Ship in a Bottle” 🤗
That Malle burl is some amazing wood and when you painted it, it turned into breathtaking. Absolutely amazing Ben. I’d love to find me a piece of that wood. Congrats to last weeks winners 🎉 this vase wow
Thanks Mate
A fantastic piece. I loved watching the jetsons growing up.
That looks amazing! I wasn’t sure about it until I saw the final result. Super unique!
Thanks Lynn
What a transformation! Your eye for possibility in your work is amazing.
Love how this vase turned out, the colours and sparkles look awesome. It looks like it’s from space 😊
I love your creativity a lot. One day, I would love a series, where you show how you make the books and the eggs of your shop.
Don’t get me wrong, I love your experiment videos! But I’ve missed you making these!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
So glad to see the burl make a beautiful return.
I love the "ship in a..." Projects!
I'd like to see what else a ship can be made into.
Dang, the Jetsons is a real blast from the past. The vase looks great. Now I see projects that include other old cartoons like Flintstones.
I also have very fond memories of watching The Jetsons - and the theme song is now stuck in my head :D
Ohh I love the ships in a bottle and I love this vase too. I love the Jetsons ship its different than your normal style.
All of the stuff you make is awesome. The jetsons would be proud of this one
Love your channel so much! My husband and I look forward to you video's.
Thanks guys 😊
Great video and I’m loving the Cleetus shirt. My TH-cam worlds colliding.
Thanks Mate 😊
Absolutely amazing! The Jetsons were & still are one of my all time favorites
I like how some of the metallic flecks are in the resin like subtle glitter!
