Thank you so much Romona. 😀😀😀 It’s so much fun and very cool to learn 🤭😊 I think you missed the biggest one 🤭 Stubborn!!! 😂😂😂😂 I don’t like to give up 🤭🤭🤭 Happy crafting ❤️
I absolutely love your work, those pens are gorgeous, I love seeing you work on machinery, you have awesome ideas, and a very calming voice. Keep up the good work.
Hi Wendy, Another great video and your turning skills are improving, the colours are so striking. I hope your busy in the makers weekend. Thanks for sharing
those colours are stunning so vibrant love watching you on the lathe it's so hypnotic and claming love the out come they ate beautiful, just wish jdiction did bigger bottles xx
The colors are just incredible!! As soon as I use up my current micas I'm going to have to try out the Jdiction. Those pens are absolutely stunning! 😍😍😍😍
Oh that’s so cool Rebecca 👍👍👍 I do get confused about doing it backwards 😂😂😂 but I love the process and want to learn more 😀👍 Thank you so much Rebecca 🤗
About a year ago, I saw something that interested me greatly. I wish I could remember his channel, but I can't. He does a lot of lathe work. He poured casting resin into a mold, then with a large, horse-type syringe, he used glow-in-the-dark UV resin and shot it into his uncured casting resin. Just in random swirls, no specific pattern. Immediately after removing the syringe, he hit the UV resin with a powerful LED curing light. All I can remember is that he came up with a unique, beautiful piece! This might be something would be interested in trying, as I know you like unusual and interesting ideas. I know I have been captivated by this idea. But with no lathe nor ability to do anything other than just leave it as a solid block, I have just kept it in the back of my mind. It seems like he made a bud vase or something...??? 😁
That sounds like fun 😀😀 I might give it a go one day 😀😀😀 Thank you so much Jay 👍 It’s amazing how things get stuck in our minds eye huh 🤷♀️😀 Some of the people I used to watch on TH-cam sadly don’t make videos anymore and that’s such a shame but life changes all the time. Thank you so much for your comment 😀👍❤️
Those colour combinationts turned (haha!) out amazing! I have a few powder pigments and hopefully some are as vibrant as those. I need to get my craftroom in order and the resin nook set up as soon as my work schedule alows it!
If I could make a pen that pretty, I'd never buy one from the store again. If I were younger and healthier, I would try my hand at turning wood and resin. I love to watch people do it. I think that would be very satisfying. :-)
@@Toonpish Yes so do I but like you I don't like chunky pens, I love the Taylors Mirfield Zeta pens cause the part you hold is the metal kit which is really easy for me to hold with my dodgy fingers. Looking at these awesome pens though I may have to try these out too xx 😊
Omg they are gorgeous, beautiful colours. I'm making some little jewellery pieces. There not perfect but I'm quite pleased with them. Sending a waggy tail from wee Gizmo x
I love Gizmo 😀😀❤️❤️ I’m so glad you are pleased with your pieces 🤗 Nothing is perfect and we can always strive for it but don’t be disappointed when it doesn’t happen. 🤔😊 Perfection is for machines and mass production not for humans 🤗😀 Love the imperfections they make it real 😀👍❤️
wow. I love bright colors too. I was wondering about mica powder. I am going to have to use some that I have. They are just sitting there calling to me. :-)
@@Toonpish my ex-husband is a cabinet maker by trade and he gave it to me....not sure his new wife would like me to ask him to teach me even though he would be the most likely choice
Oh girl you should try resin, mica (like blue for example), then add a wee bit of blue interference powder, that is the magic ingredient. You will not believe the color , it's like it is glowing and bright and pearl I guess. It's just amazing. I think I'll upload a lil video I sent to a friend showing a color I made for them. And you know videos/pictures are always muted then what they actually look like.
Not at the moment Kathryn 😳🤷♀️ You can always email me if you would like 🤔 the information page has the address 😀 I do plan on a website one day 🤷♀️🤔 Thank you so much Kathryn 😀👍
I’m afraid turning has its waist sadly. But I do try and make the blanks as thin as I can that can still fit on the lathe. I love the process though 😀 Thank you so much Susan 😀👍❤️
Hi Wendy! Another awesome video. I’m having trouble finding a red mica powder that’s truly fire engine red. Most that I find end up being more pink or orange. Do you have any recommendations?
Oh Hun I absolutely know your pain 😭😭 I tend to use liquid red for a perfect red as mica red is really hard to get. Hemway do one or at least they did but tbh I still wasn’t happy. So I went down the liquid route. I have bought so many over the years too. The answer is I’m still searching too 😭😭
I don’t like chunky pens, prefer thin pens but I got Rheumatoid Arthritis severely when I was 24 years old (some poor people get it as children, I feel for them so much) but with that I very soon had very damaged joints and my hands were the worst so ended up with advanced osteoarthritis very young. I have had to use chunky pens so it would be good if you could do a bit of both
I pour the mica into the resin not the other way round. 🤷♀️ But I have had some that still leave tiny clumps. 😡 My advice is to stir and leave. The clumps come to the top as they have air in them. You can either lift them out or press against the side of the cup to disperse them. 😀 That’s the best I can offer in help 👍😀
ohhhhhhh those colours are just absolutely stunning !! proper 80's 90's vibes x really gorgeous Wendy xx
Actually now you said 80s they remind me of shell suits 😂😂😀😀
Thank you so much hun 👍❤️
@@Toonpish yessssssss Shell suits omg exactly

I have a other things I want to try too 😀😀😀
@@Toonpish definitely try everything you can. Don't wait. We never know what's around the corner.
@@junek1006 totally agree 🥰🤗❤️

I really like these kits they are so easy to do. 😀😀😀 the zita are heavy and popular but I like the two part ones 😀😀😀
@@Toonpish What are the 2 part ones called Wendy as I'd like to try them 🤔 xxx 💜💜
They are Delta I believe from TM 😀👍❤️
Omg they are gorgeous, beautiful colours. I'm making some little jewellery pieces. There not perfect but I'm quite pleased with them. Sending a waggy tail from wee Gizmo x

wow. I love bright colors too. I was wondering about mica powder. I am going to have to use some that I have. They are just sitting there calling to me. :-)
Have a try June 😀😀 what do you have to loose 😀😀😀 I love playing around with colours 😀😀😀👍❤️
Great video , lovely pens
Thanks Wayne 🤗😀
Hug Valerie for me too 😀🤗❤️
@@Toonpish will so and see you at makers central
stunning....I have a lathe but have never been game to use it
Maree you should definitely give it a go or try and find a club or someone local that could get you started 😀😀 you would be hooked in no time 😀👍❤️
@@Toonpish my ex-husband is a cabinet maker by trade and he gave it to me....not sure his new wife would like me to ask him to teach me even though he would be the most likely choice
No harm in asking though right?
Or he might have a friend that could help 🤷♀️😀👍

I love these, Wendy. Do you have a shop online that you sell your pieces on?
Not at the moment Kathryn 😳🤷♀️

Thank you so much Kathryn 😀👍
Omg theses pens are to die for 😍 the colour combinations are amazing do you sell these?
Joanne I do sell them privately but don’t use any platform atm. 🤷♀️
Send me an email and we can chat, the details are on the information page 😀👍❤️
I can’t help thinking is this not a massive waste of resin? Or am I missing something? They are beautiful by the way. 😍
I’m afraid turning has its waist sadly. But I do try and make the blanks as thin as I can that can still fit on the lathe. I love the process though 😀
Thank you so much Susan 😀👍❤️

How did you create your molde

No I bought it 😀😀 if only I could do that too 🤔🤔🤔 maybe I should 😀❤️👍
