As someone who just got my first lathe for Christmas this year I love this as an inspiration. Been watching you for a while. Hurricane Ian was basically a direct hit on our house so the end message is very real for us. Thanks for that.
Thanks Edna. I've learn over the years that one call can save a life. One call can mean everything to someone. It's okay to know things are tough. But we all have to face those tough situations head on and together. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
When it started I thought the block was going to be cut into slices to make flat pieces like placemats or wall hangings. This bowl is one of the nicest things I’ve seen in wood and resin, a real beauty.
This is seriously the sweetest message I’ve heard from a TH-camr and quite frankly, from ANYONE for seasons greeting and regarding the holiday season in general. I live here stateside (OR) and ALL of my family is back home in the islands (CNMI) and Japan so traveling is 1. Expensive and 2. Ill-advised given the obvious pandemic outside. I haven’t seen them in over 6 years now so it’s been really tough. But I’m also incredibly emotional just thinking about all the people out here (and everywhere really) who still have it worse off than me… so thank you for caring about other people. I don’t know if you realize how important, meaningful, and impactful your well wishes are ❤️🥺 from the bottom of my heart, thank you for caring about others.
Being retired military and having been deployed during the holidays, I know first hand the mental toll this time of year has on people. I've lost some very good friends to depression. I even lost a good friend because I waited to long to reach out to him. I feel guilt as I think if I would have just reached out it would have been different. It was a hard lesson to learn, but it made me decide that I'm never to busy for people. "Someone once told me your not to busy. The thing you say you can't do just isn't a priority." People should always be a priority. So I changed my mind set. If someone I know calls, I stop what I am doing and pick up the phone. If I haven't heard from a friend on a while I reach out. If I notice a subscriber hasn't commented on a video, I try to contact them. Thank you for commenting and sharing your kind words. I really appreciate it.
That looks awesome. My favorite one you've done honestly. Wish I had a cnc so I could do something similar. Merry Christmas to you and the Mrs brother.
Another piece anyone would be proud to have o their holiday table. May you and yours be safe, well, warm and your souls overflow with joy and peace during this holiday season.
That is absolutely stunning. If I were able to order one I would also ask you to do an inlay on the rim so it looked like a snow sitting there. I had no idea how big that bowl was until you put it on the lathe. Awesome Bowl. Love love it. Great job. Hope you enjoy your Christmas. 🌲🎅🎁🤶🌲 ❤😊
Wow! So pretty! I wasn't sure where you were going with it when you started, but nice finish! And thanks for the reminder to call a friend - I've been thinking about my friend Trout, who lost his wife this year. I'm going to call him right now.
I really love your videos, mainly because they show that not all the time the results are perfect, sometimes things happen and it's ok, all could be fixed. Thank you!!
Heating up the resin comes with it's own set of problems. I've done it before and it worked okay. The issue comes later as you rewarm the resin and cool it again. It causes conidiation and can cause issues. But the real issue here is my resin was in the resin pump. I have a heater for it, but after a day it went out lol.
First, beautiful bowl! You should have shot the bowl from above when on the turntable. I think that would have been a cool shot. Looking forward to new projects in 2022. I gave a friend a gift this Christmas that really cheered her up. So I am glad you mentioned reaching out to others that may need some encouragement this holiday season.
Thanks Charlene, I went to do just that and I knocked the bowl and the turn table to the ground. It broke my turn table. Instead of not uploading the Christmas video I went with it.
Luv it ! If you were to put 4-6 little 1/2 inch tall “feet” on it you could then fit those little copper wire bottle lights underneath to under light it as a centerpiece.
Wow, another one out of the park! I love the geometrics of snowflakes, and the resin color you chose works well with the black cherry. Thank you for this as a present, Ken. I hope you can catch Leigh Ann under the mistletoe for a while, too. P.S. LOVE your shirt! That about sums up the feelings of a lot of people at the moment.
He was also our football coach. The guy was back at work the next day with a bandage on. You should have seen the faces of everyone there. I'll never forget it.
Hello, Just found your channel. I have a lot to watch lol.... Thank you for your service and some great ideas. I'm new to the lathe , so it helps to watch great channels like yours.
New subscriber here. I just stumbled across your channel and this is the first video of yours I’ve seen. I loved it, I also loved your message at the end. Thank you for being different and standing out. I hope your holidays were great.
I love it brother! I so badly just wish I was in the spirit for the season. Times are tough. I hope you and all of your subscribers have a merry Christmas!!! Thank you for brightening up my day with your time. I greatly appreciate you for sharing your time with us as well as your skills. Thank you again brother.
Hey Patrick, I hope things turn around for you. I've been there. Try to focus on the things in your life that bring joy. Work on those joys and it will turn around. Merry Christmas.
As someone who just got my first lathe for Christmas this year I love this as an inspiration. Been watching you for a while. Hurricane Ian was basically a direct hit on our house so the end message is very real for us. Thanks for that.
Thank you very much! If you have any questions as you start your journey hit me up on Facebook. I think the link to my page is in the description.
That is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my whole life. It combines all my loves in one: resin, wood and snowflakes. Gorgeous bowl!
I am glade you like it Wendy. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
What you said at the end means a lot, its been a tough one this season and I have been pretending that it isn't. You are a very thoughtful guy.
Thanks Edna. I've learn over the years that one call can save a life. One call can mean everything to someone. It's okay to know things are tough. But we all have to face those tough situations head on and together. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
Hope you are doing ok Edna. 🙏

Thank you Chris. Sometimes plain and simple can be beautiful.

Just beautiful! Greetings from Australia and thanks for your lovely message at the end. God bless.
Thank you! You too!
Beautiful bowl! Love your message at the end. Happy Christmas to you and your nearest and dearest too. x 🇬🇧
Merry Christmas. Thank you
That looks awesome. My favorite one you've done honestly. Wish I had a cnc so I could do something similar. Merry Christmas to you and the Mrs brother.
Merry Christmas. You know that's LeighAnns CNC. She doesn't even know I used it. Hmmmm I wonder if I'm in trouble when she sees this video 🤔
@@MoonpieCreations You were in trouble the moment you said I do. But in the best kind of trouble there is.
Loved the snowflake bowl! Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄❤ 🤶 and the Happiest of New Years to you and your family 👪
Thank you Merry Christmas
Wow, that bowl is beautiful. I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas and I'm looking forward to many great projects for 2022.
We did James. I hope you and your family did also.
Hope you had a Happy, Healthy Holiday! LOVE the bowl...just wow! Amazing what a piece of wood can turn into with the hands of an artist touching it.
Thank you for the kind words
Great bowl but more importantly, a truly great message at the end. Happy Holidays!
Happy Holidays Darryn.
Nice! It was great that you mentioned to reach out to people, because this time of year can be so rough for vulnerable or lonely ones.
Absolutely. It's important.
absolutely stunning, I would love to own one of these. Merry Christmas and a happy blessed new year everyone.
Thank you Doreen. I may sell a limited number of these closer to Christmas.
Another piece anyone would be proud to have o their holiday table. May you and yours be safe, well, warm and your souls overflow with joy and peace during this holiday season.
Wow, thank you Vicki. I wish the same sentiment on you and your family.
That is absolutely stunning. If I were able to order one I would also ask you to do an inlay on the rim so it looked like a snow sitting there. I had no idea how big that bowl was until you put it on the lathe. Awesome Bowl. Love love it. Great job. Hope you enjoy your Christmas. 🌲🎅🎁🤶🌲 ❤😊
Thank you. Merry Christmas
These are the most fun wood turning videos out there. Great job.
Wow, thanks!
A very pretty bowl, and even lovelier sentiments. I hope your holidays were everything you hoped for.
They were I trust yours were also?
Beautiful bowl even before you see the snow flake. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Thank you Merry Christmas.
Wow I love how you did the snowflake in the bottom it is a beautiful effect.
Thanks so much 😊
Don’t forget to put that snowflake in it’s safe space so nothing can hurt it…
😂😂
That is one beautiful bowl. And a snowflake I wouldn't mind keeping forever. Great job!!
Thank you very much!
Thanks for a bright corner in a crappy 2021 Ken. All the best for 2022.
Thanks James
Nice job with the embedded ❄️snowflake❄️. Always a good watch. Happy Holidays.
Happy holidays!
Beautiful bowl and kind words. Thanks.
Thank you very much!
That would look beautiful with a soft light under it to make that snowflake shine. Good work.
I think so too. Unfortunately my new turn table with a light didn't make it here in time.
What a beautiful snowflake bowl, Ken!! 😃 Merry Christmas, Ken!! 😃🎄
Thank you Merry Christmas
Wow! So pretty! I wasn't sure where you were going with it when you started, but nice finish! And thanks for the reminder to call a friend - I've been thinking about my friend Trout, who lost his wife this year. I'm going to call him right now.
Thank you! 😊
Fabulous 😍. I would love to see you make more projects like this. Maybe something like a platter or cake stand?
Thanks 🤗
Stunning piece love it 😍 beautiful colour to the wood. All the very best to you and your family for the new year hope you had a wonderful Christmas 🎅🏽

Happy holidays! Stay warm.
Another great project that fits the Season .Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your loved ones
Thank you. Merry Christmas
Try putting your resin in a warm water bath prior to pouring. It will lower the viscosity and help reduce bubbles.
Great work!
Heating up the resin comes with it's own set of problems. I've done it before and it worked okay. The issue comes later as you rewarm the resin and cool it again. It causes conidiation and can cause issues. But the real issue here is my resin was in the resin pump. I have a heater for it, but after a day it went out lol.
I hope you and your family had a good holiday. It was a trying year, that's for sure.
We did and I hope you and yours did also.
@@MoonpieCreations thanks.
I haven’t seen that done before. It’s beautiful! Merry Christmas!🎄
Thank you Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you too from the Netherlands. Keep on going in 2022

Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪

The screwing the plate on sounded like Star Wars when they're flying through the canyons.
Haha, it does.
Such a beautiful and festive bowl! ❄
Thank you. I hope everyone there has a great holiday season.
Nice bowl Ken, As to your Fun Fact.. I bet it wasn't fun for Mr Jenkins, Merry Christmas my friend, All the best for 2022 too.
He was also our football coach. The guy was back at work the next day with a bandage on. You should have seen the faces of everyone there. I'll never forget it.
Jeezz.... :-0
Love it 💕 Neat way to combine cnc and the lathe. Could do something for each season/ holiday. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas. Thank you Jen
Absolutely beautiful I love it I hope you and your family have a very merry Christmas take care and God bless
Thank you. Merry Christmas
Hello, Just found your channel. I have a lot to watch lol.... Thank you for your service and some great ideas. I'm new to the lathe , so it helps to watch great channels like yours.
Welcome aboard! I appreciate the sub.
Now THAT is amazing! Do these ideas just occur to you? Wow, amazing just amazing.
This was originally going to be a snowman, but I couldn't get the file to cooperate. lol
@@MoonpieCreations One of life's happy accidents!
The bowl was outstanding. I love to create but what I start does not always turn out well. Your work is excellent!
I have the same problem Karen. I place those projects on the Shelf of Shame to reattack later.
Very beautiful even if there are Imperfections they are a part of life. Happy New Year.
Thanks. Same to you!
Ken, just watched this whole video at the end of March. Why do I so love most of what you make, this included? Oh yeah -- cuz you do it well!
Thank you Mari. I appreciate that.
Magnifique Ken bravo 👍👏🇨🇭 et bonne année 2022 pleins de jolie bois tourné 🎄🥂⛄️
Merci. J'espère que vous profitez bien de 2022.
To you and your family Ken, Merry Christmas 🎄☃
Merry Christmas. Thank you
That’s a classic, Moonman! Merry Christmas!
Thanks Shaun Merry Christmas.
Beautiful bowl. It is amazing what you can do with a CNC

Holiday greetings. Love the bowl. Have you thought of doing a bowl that has lights shining thru the bottom to show off a design?
I have thought about a bowl with lights. But haven't figured it out yet. Thanks and Merry Christmas
