    Cheers! And thank you for stopping by!
    This piece a jewel of nastiness every step of the way. Given how rotten the burl was, it required thin epoxy with an extended curing time in order to fill all of the gaps and saturate the wood. However, the longer the curing process, the greater the risk of losing color separation in the resin. I found this out the hard way after hoping for more distinct purples and golds in this one. The inside of the vase is not spectacular and rather rough, but it was necessary to leave some wall thickness given the fragility of the wood. I expect this piece is fairly sturdy, given all the stabilization that it needed. Anyway, life is a learning process, and nothing is perfect. But this piece will hopefully find a comfy spot in someone's home.

    I did two electives of woodworking in high school, never followed through, my career went elsewhere. I have very fond memories of my lathe work. And I have a beautiful maple side table next to me as I speak, which I hand made with the lathe, routers, band and coping saws when I was 11 years old. I am 52 now. Superb piece of wood and turning here. Congratulations..

    I always enjoy watching how burls turn out. I miss being able to do turnings. Unfortunately being disabled your income is limited and had to sell all my equipment just to keep the utilities on and food in my daughter's stomach. It was always very very relaxing and helped with keeping the depression away from not being able to work. At least I can still watch others beautiful works of art.

I even like your use of resin unlike some who overuse it to avoid some of the extreme challenges that some pieces of wood present. This is such a delightful piece to add to all of your other delightful pieces. You are a great role model for future woodturners as they develop. Congratulations, Don from South Aust.

    Beautiful piece. About ten years ago, I dug a basketball sized cherry root burl out of a neighbor's yard, when they had their cherry tree cut down. I had sealed it, and was waiting patiently for it to dry, and cure properly before working it. I left the area for a while, and my uncle went by the house to check on things, and saw this piece of wood, thought it would make a long burning piece of fire wood, and burned it. It was such a heart breaker. It was cool to see someone make something similar, and see it come to fruition. Makes it not quite as bad. Thanks

    HAND ON HEART, never have a seen a more beautiful piece of art...I could stare at it for ages, admiring the colors the knots in the wood, the smooth lines of the vase, the change of colors, but my highlight is to see the animals and faces and various other shapes I saw whilst you were sculpting!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The skill and artistry that goes into making this piece is brilliant, the grain in the wood just came to life when the oil was applied to it.

    Absolutely stunning. I would love something like that in our own home. A true piece of art that can be passed down to the next generation.
    I was looking at your shop drooling a bit at how beautiful your pieces are. I’ve got to start saving my money in order to own a piece of your beautiful art! And before anyone gets huffy at the prices. Remember *real* art does not come at Walmart prices!

    It always amazes me to see such an ugly lump of wood become something so stunning! You have once again found the beauty of the wood. I much prefer when you use oil on these projects. It just really makes the wood gleam. Beautiful work David
