"Coil" How to make a vase from rope, resin and willow wood. Wood turning, resin casting
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.พ. 2025
- This project demonstrates the ultimate awesomeness of rope, incorporating it into a vase made from clear resin and willow wood. It and other projects are being sold at ArtForOUR.org to help raise money for Operation Underground Railroad. The vase is 11 inches tall and 10 inches wide.
I basically spend my free time dreaming up ways to express my artistic side and simultanously to raise money for Operation Underground Railroad. O.U.R. funds, supports, trains and guides rescue missions for children who are in sex trafficking slavery and free them to better lives with their amazing after care program. We cannot support O.U.R. enough. (OURRESCUE.ORG)

Mr. Preece, I would first like to thank you for your involvement in child trafficking. Very important for those children to be saved. At the age of six I was a victim of incest. So I applauded your support. You also have a very creative mind. Beautiful piece ❤ 😍
Thank you so much Maria!
Love your choice of charity. I raised money for them for my birthday.
Thank you very much!

I can honestly say that out of the bazillion videos that I have watched of wood turning, this has to be the most beautiful piece of art that I’ve seen. I just discovered your channel today. What makes this piece even more beautiful is the fundraiser. As a person with a family member that is a survivor, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for using your talent to help those that have dealt with or are dealing with these terrible situations. God bless
Thank you very much! You've made my day.

What an incredible piece of art, it’s stunning 😍
It is January 15th 2025 and I have just finished marvelling at this piece of incredible work. From the concept to the presentation a brilliant gift to all who see it! To those who eventually own it and to the children you help. This is my first visit to your channel and I subscribed in the middle of viewing. Now I am going to binge watch as many as I can.
Wow, thank you!

Hi Dan. I'm a retired, disabled Senior Master of Art (Teaching) from South Australia. I stumbled across your site & decided to have a look & I am glad I did. What I enjoyed was the spontaneous creative attitude on display as you worked & the piece evolved into a beautiful vase where the wood & the rope seemed to float in space, largely brought about by your use of your apparent, preferred clear resin. Well done on your relaxed commentary as well keeping us informed as to what things were running through your mind keeping us even further engaged in what you were creating. Don from South Aust.
Thank you very much Don! Much appreciated.

I love how the broken piece of wood in the vase actually adds to its character, and does not detract from it. Quite amazing.
Thank you! Much appreciated.

No one can make such type of vase, it's really awesome design.
Thank you so much!
Artforour.org
loving this project. i really like how this one looks more like a resin vase with some wood in it rather than a wooden vase with some resin in it. the “floating wood” effect you achieved is pretty sweet. could be a neat concept to revisit someday?
Thank you! Totally coming back to this concept...
Wow that's the coolest thing ever ...amazing
Wow, thank you!

I find this to be fascinating, both how the project was done and how the finished piece look.
I too, love the way light works

@@artgivinghope How much does something this beautiful normaaly get at auction? Ball park
Good question.... I started at $20 when I started 2+ years ago and just sold this one for $600... my best yet...
It's a beautiful piece! Thank you for sharing. I do appreciate the commentary- would like even more about what you're doing or the design/ decision making process as you go along.
Thank you Melinda! I appreciate the feedback.

😳WOW 👍 Das ist ja fantastisch schön und gut geworden. Meisterhaft mit 5 Stern ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 23:40
😳WOW 👍 That turned out fantastically beautiful and good. Masterful with 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 23:40
It's beautiful and intriguing. I am in full agreement that vacuum degassing, followed by the pressure pot is the way to go with porous materials such as these. Pressure alone would not have cleared the bubbles/air out of the rope fibers. This is outstanding work.
Thank you very much!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
Really cool to see your resin process!
Thank you!
www.artgivinghope.org/currentauctions
This is absolutely stunning. I can see it setting on a table by a window to appreciate the level of craftsmanship in it. Keep turning because you just gained another admirer.
Thank you very much Shawn!

Much appreciated!
Your finest............so far. Nice work Dan.
Thank you Scott!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
I do turning as well, and I have done several epoxy pieces (not as many as you), but I have struggled with forms and epoxy leakage. Your solution is brilliant! I love it!
Thank you very much!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
I hope you take as careful attention to safety as we see in this lovely video! Resin and hardener are very rich in highly problematic chemical compounds - until they've properly hardened they should be treated with utmost care and caution! Please keep well ventilated and in the case that you get ANY on your skin please take care of rinsing very carefully! And if you feel like you're getting any allergic reactions please make sure to get proper medical advice!
Please stay safe - and have fun! 😄
Lots of love from Denmark 🤗
Thank you for the concern!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
Wow, from the beginning I thought there's no way this will come out acceptable, however to my astonishment, it turned out pretty cool!
Thank you very much! www.artgivinghope.org/currentauctions
I always enjoy watching you work with the wood and the resin. Adding the rope looks really cool. I especially like how you can see some of the fibers of the rope in the resin.
Agreed! Thank you Rebecca!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
tend to switch video's off that have no commentary.
I came across this video because the vase looked pretty cool, I wouldn't have stayed if it was just music etc .. So Thanks for the commentary & you're welcome, you have another subscriber xx
Thank you very much Angela!

This is one of the most unique and beautiful pieces I have seen in my life. Good on you for taking the time and effort to create this.
Thank you very much!

that is a really wonderful vase, well done sir.
Thanks!
ArtForOUR.org
Such a unique piece. I love the combination of materials. And the partial voiceovers is great, and the music during the down time is perfect. Watching something be made is always nice, but learning about the process, whether thought or action, adds a whole other facet.
I'm curious why you don't use a mold release on the plastic? Not that it's necessary for what you're doing.
If you ever try to do a larger piece than what your pots can handle, should try out the method that tabletop makers use. Coat the wood with a thinner epoxy first, allowing it to soak into that top layer and seal the wood so that the wood can't release bubbles into your deeper pours.
Thank you! Great advise!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
At first, I was wondering where this was going, then VIOLA it made perfect sense and I love it!!!
Thank you! Much appreciated.
ArtForOUR.org
Love it! I think that's one of my favorites of yours so far and you've had some cool ones. Yes, I think you've got that bubble problem beat. Great job!
Thank you so much Wendy!

Love the commentary and the sincerity! Being yourself is the best 🌞
Thank you so much!
www.artforour.org/currentauctions
If you can, always use clear resin. I love the "floating" effect on your projects. So many woodturning people add so much color to the resin and the natural beauty of the wood & extra decor is gone. Maybe a pinch of color for Halloween or Christmas 🎄
Thanks Kate! I totally agree.
I'd love to see that translated into my niece's favourite season - Halloween 🎃 and for me personally I would love to see something for that very sweet and North American celebration; Valentine's! This could be so cute in pink! 😄
Love this piece. Have you ever considered contrasting colors of wood in a similar spiral epoxy project ? I think your contributions to getting these children free are amazing, thank you for sharing your art and cause with us.
Thank you! That's a cool idea....

This is absolutely beautiful and my God, that song is amazing. Reminds me of my Granddad who passed away in 2015. When we were kids, he used to play his guitar and sing and all of us kids use to sit around and listen to him. He loved two artists: Lightnin Hopkins & Jimmy Reed and this song reminds me of their music. Your work is beautiful, and I will be buying something, hopefully in the very near future. Great job and thank you for sharing. I love, love, love your art creation.
Thank you very much!
www.artforour.org/how-you-can-help
@@artgivinghope You are so welcome. Just so you know, I found it so relaxing to watch your video. This is the very first time I have any seen your work/videos. I truly enjoyed that you did not have music playing throughout and gave us time to hear your story. And then when you did put music on, good God, look at what you played! You knocked it out of the park with your selection!!!!! (You made me purchase this song on itunes ... that's how much I enjoyed it.) Great job and keep em' comin'! (Thank you for the link. I will check it out.)
Wow wow wow. Wonderful work. 😀😀😀
