Don't give up my friend. We are all pulling for you to make this work.
Thank You Jean, I wont !
I am very hopeful that this will be a pleasant surprise next week. Cannot wait to see how this turns out.
Hi Nancy
How’re you doing?

I'll get it figure out Nancy
That was a very interesting lesson. I learned much from your very open self-analysis. You are fun to watch because you show everything. Good or bad, and that makes you genuine. Thank you sir. :)
well Thank you, I found it difficult to learn how to fix something when no one else showed their screw ups and what they came up with to fix them, Episode 2 isn't any different,
This was so interesting! I can’t wait to see what happens. Parts of it looked like a coral reef. I’m glad the dye was blue; if it had been red, your shop would look like a crime scene!😀

Interesting, can’t wait to see what you come up with!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank You Samantha
I love it, even though it's at your expense, this is a very informative video.
I love seeing the issues because it proves we all have our headaches with this hobby!
I can't wait to see the conclusion on this bowl, the idea is great even if the execution had flaws. I think if not for the stabilizing issues it would have been a fantastic turning! hopefully, it will work out in the end and maybe after getting new Cactus Juice and fixing the big vac chamber, you can try it again!
I have a LOT of punky black cherry that I want to do this with and I'm gaining from this video valuable information.
keep up the good work and god bless you!
Thank You Thank You
Very cool! Can't wait to see it finished
Thank You, if I can get it finished
Looks good so far can’t wait to see the finished product

@@PohlBarnProductions 😎
I always admire your perseverance. When a project goes sideways on you, you just keep trying to work through it. I tend to do that too but, after about the 5th time getting covered in blue dye, I definitely would’ve saying “Ok.. yeah I’m done.”😅 Is Cactus Juice the usual way to dye wood or was this an experiment to stabilize the wood and dye it at the same time? Just curious, I’ve never dyed or stabilized wood before. I really hope it turns out exactly how you want it to, you certainly deserve it to! I’ll be rooting for you this next week.😊
Thank You Funo, this one has temped my Patience to the limits, episode 2 isn't any different, the cactus juice is suppose to harden the wood and you can color it for some great effects, that's if you haven't had it for 3 or so years sitting on the shelf going bad
Hope your persistence pays off Doug. It looks like it could be nice. It's a big lump of wood to stabilise; have you seen BM Sculptures? He regularly does this kind of thing, but I know he uses a vacuum chamber before the pressure pot.
Thank You Mike,
this project looks like it will be leaving its mark on your workshop
Thank You, a Blue Stain !!!!!!

If I remember right, once the catalyst is added you have a year to use it up. Now we know what happens when it gets old. Looks like it will be cool if it cooperates and you can finish it. Looking forward to seeing if it finishes up.
I really don't know Doug, some of it worked and some of it didn't, I think the blue and green were in the jars the longest from something I'd made long ago
Doug, I feel bad for you with the troube you're having with this bowl/pot. However, i have thought of using old product too, and its pretty cool to listen to you and see how you plan on overcoming any issues...a teaching experience. Im not the greatest with wording things, so I hope this comes across the right way. I am looking forward to seeing the rest next week. I have a 4'x3' log of box elder sitting in my yard, so Im even more interested in watching this video, and the next one, to see how you finish it. I have to commend your pwrsistence in fknishing versus chucking it! Thank you Doug for videoa like this one!!!
Thank You Lori, well this should have worked, my biggest fear with this project was losing subscriber because they didn't like the color scheme! I'll figure something out soon with it

Hi Doug -- loving this so far, though i'm only a third of the way in. Can't wait to see how this turns out! I have a whole shelf of punky spalted maple I want to turn; I'm excited to see how your dye stabilization turns out and if the wet spots eventually cured. I also have a question: you turn with HSS tools; how often did you have to sharpen your gouge during this turning? Thanks!

How’re you doing?
George seems to be a Player hittin on all the ladies in my chat, I'm sure you'll get nowhere but thanks for the extra support
thank you Ruth, I am sure if my cactus juice was not so old it would have worked fine, sharpening depends on the amount of Mica powder and yeah the cactus juice, those things make me sharpen often
Doug, wow the wood didn't half soak up theses colours Im surprised it wouldn't harden, roll on part two my friend
Thank You Alan
This is the first time that I watched your video and it makes me feel blue.:)) It's a pity because the colors look very beautiful Doug. I hope you are able to fix it man, and it becomes a beautiful artwork from your hand as usual. Part of your videos is also to see you fight Mr. Murphy and you rarely lose.

Oh man, Doug! That was brutal. You'll be finding memories of this thing forever. I hope you can make it work because I would've bailed a long time ago. But that blank looked so good with that blended colour. If that thing won't cure and liquid is shifting constantly it might never stay true or balanced. I guess we will see as you keep thinking this one through.
Thank You Jay
Man Doug...sorry this one is causing so much issue. Here's hoping it works out. Looks cool so far. Thx, take care, and looking forward to the next part!
Thank You, It'll work out fine
Have you considered using the pressure pot instead of the vacuum pot when using cactus juice? Air as a fluid is compressible but liquids are not. As the air bubbles are compressed they'll leave lower pressure areas for the liquid to be forced into.
I have not, but the air will then expand once the valve is open
@@PohlBarnProductions By that time, the cactus juice will, hopefully, have flowed into the fibres.
I wonder if anyone has done that experiment.
Have you tried to stabilise punky wood with Wood Hardener (Ronseal) etc., as it really works well on rotten timber such as window frames
Thank You Avid, Yes I have Minwax makes a wood hardener, it expensive too
I thought you had to put it in a vac chamber to get it to fully absorb internally. I also thought it went bad after a while. Cool. Good to know!
Update: Nevermind
I think you do have to put it in a vacuum chamber...the blue didn't set up and dry.
you put it into the vac chamber to do that yes but I only needed the bowl to be hardened not the crap I was gonna be turning away, it will soak up and work the same,
Maybe if you get fresh cactus juice, put it all in the vac chamber, and essentially get the old stuff to mix with the fresh stuff, then bake it again? It looks like it has so much potential!
Thank You Victoria, that actually did work, the second bottle of cactus juice was much newer

I get that same speckling on my face sheild, but mine's from CA glue I wasn't patient enough to let dry long enough. There HAS to be a way to clean off the shields. I'm going to try the denatured alcohol in another 45 minutes when I head into the shop. And, if you had my shop (uneated with a super cool, amazingly conditioned fully black, ultra dark roof, just leaving a fan on it with the doors closed in the summer will give you more heat than any hair dryer ever could. Ugh.

it wasn't any better this week for that project, thanks for watching Matt
Just a suggestion… How about cutting a V shape In the bowl almost like a window and allowing it to dry in the sun? When it’s finally dry you can use that window to feature the many colors of the wood.
I’m not a woodworker, I’m just an old lady that loves to watch woodworking!
See you next week.

I hope this turns out for you. I'm really new to all of this so this may be a dumb question. Do you think putting a box over it and running it at high RPMs for a few hours would just sling out all of the old stuff? Then you could put new on and do your hair dryer trick?

Hi Doug. I didn’t see you do it, but the Cactus Juice needs to be baked for a couple hours to harden it. Did you do that? If you don’t it will never set up.
That’s what I thought! I was wondering if he’d baked it first?
Thank You Pam, I cooked it for hours making sure it was hard, I am sure it's just to old and no good anymore
Hia Doug, why didn't you cover the piece and spin the lathe for half an hour to let all the liquid out?
Thank You Dave, I did
Dang it!
Right
Do you think maybe soaking it in denatured alcohol might dry the blue up? Just a thought; no knowledge if it would work. Dang! You tried it!😜👌
Thank You George, at this point it probably wont hurt
@@PohlBarnProductions Actually, I commented before I saw the whole video, & “lo & behold!” You did exactly what I was thinking!❤️😋
Wouldn't using a carbide tool be easier on the resin?
that depends on who you ask, I couldn't afford to keep buying the replacement cutters so I learned how to sharpen and turn with traditional tools
What is the life of the cactus juice if it’s kept in a fridge?
I really have no Idea George, and no it wasn't kept in the fridge,
I've heard of feeling the blues, but that thing's spreading it spraying it everywhere!
Sure would be pretty if it'd just cooperate.

@@PohlBarnProductions LOL! Glad to be of assistance, and proud to be your scapegoat!!!

@@PohlBarnProductions lol well I know that. 🤣 When dying Ukrainian eggs we always go light to dark so the color best represents and the dark doesn’t cover the light. That’s what struck me. But with wood soaking in dye, I’m not sure that would work anyway! 👍
That's a bummer hen old resin doesn't set. I had that experience with a cheap resin. Brand new it worked, used the last of it at about a year old, didn't cure, ever. You might try just cranking up the speed and letting centrifugal force move all the wet stuff out. There's only so much stuff in there, right?. Let it spin fast enough, long enough, it will evacuate the liquid.

Maybe your should work it in denatured alcohol... And let it down for are least a few hours... That way the alcohol has time to soak in and set up the resin

Nathalie 🇨🇵 Normandie
Thank You Nathalie, I spun it for a few hours, you'll see, it really made a mess out of things,
Why don't you use your pressure pot as a vacuum chamber? Sure you would not be able to see in to it but if you placed the piece in a bucket to catch any boil over you should be fine. Use a slow cure resin, draw a deep vacuum for a few hours then pressurize to 50 psi to force the resin deep into the wood.
Thank You Leo, for the most part I don't think about it, I really didn't want to stabilize the middle of this wood to put it on the floor, I actually have to purchase the cactus juice myself, lol the resin I will throw on the floor all day long.
How about setting it in a bucket with denatured alcohol…since it seems to harden it…
Thank You

@@PohlBarnProductions Doug, if you can fix anything from Moonnpie, you can fix this! 😜
I don't think this has anything to do with the vacuum chamber.
I might soak it again in your new juice and put it back on the easy bake.
The cracks are because it is wet and shrinks when parts get dry.
Alternatively, soak it in alcohol. That might set it.
Thank You, the resin cracked, not the wood,
@The Pohl Barn Productions Sorry I didn't watch for your answer. I still think the same cause. But the wood was so porus that it wasn't cracking. But I guess maybe it was just heat damage to the resin. There's nothing like thinking out loud in writing.
Anyhow, great finish for this project! I might have chucked it instead of finishing.
Kept thinking (and yes I know its not what it's intended for ) First do no harm
Thank You
Next time you inadvertently use expired Cactus Juice and it won't cure, try wrapping the piece with several layers of paper towel held on with elastic bands and spin it in the lathe to pull the uncured Juice out so the paper towel wears it instead of you...
I'm just gonna put a box around it and turn it on for a few hours
Assuming your large vac chamber lid can't be fixed, have you though of making a new one with a 1 or 1.5 inch thick sheet of acrylic and the fittings off the original lid (assuming they're not the broken bits)...
Acrylic shouldn't be that expensive, though I believe it will eventually degrade with exposure to epoxy resin (or was it Cactus Juice that eats it?, I can't remember which) I remember another You Tuber had an acrylic vac chamber lid and it got weakened by whatever they used in their projects (Cactus Juice and/or Epoxy Resin) and started to crack like crazy, though their lid was a half inch thick or less...
If you're willing to fork out the cash, Lexan would allow you to use a MUCH thinner lid without sacrificing strength and I think it shouldn't be damaged by Cactus Juice or Epoxy Resin so it should last longer...the thicker you make the lid, the longer it should last of course...
It's the cactus Juice that makes it crack, I have not looked into all that I just purchased a chamber for smaller things from Turntex
@@PohlBarnProductions You may want to look into it...a large vac pot would make doing a project with air-trapping fillers (pine cones, ribbons, metal shavings etc.) a lot easier to make sure have few/no bubbles...
Thick Acrylic isn't all that expensive compared to Plexiglass and Lexan and if you leave the protective plastic film on the side facing the pot, it might even keep the Cactus Juice from eating it...or at least slow it down anyway...

Submerge in CA🤔
imagine the cost of that, I really don't like using CA Glue,
Where is the rest of the story?
