Jim I'm a 77 year old lady, I know nothing about wood turning and all that you do. But since I found your channel I look forward to seeing what you come up with next. This is my favorite thing you have done, but I seem to say that every time I watch you. This is truly a work of art, just amazing. Thank you for sharing your beautiful craft with us.
If I ever get retired from driving trucks all week ,I will start to put a turning shop in the back yard shed . I absolutely love the piece,a work of art for sure.thanx for the stress relief.
I love all your projects. Thank you for the hard work you do making the videos. I am going thru all the videos. They help with all the stress me and my family are going thru. You are an inspiration to us, and we all want to thank you for all you do putting out these videos. Best wishes to you and your family. Absolutely stunning work.
OMG, Jim!! Sometimes you create a piece as art, just for arts sake! This is that piece! Its magnificent!!! You outdid yourself with this! Its art museum quality, for sure! Thank you!❤
Hello Jim, I agree with previous comments: the mystery burl, the copper resin and the hyper shift all combine so well and made this an outstanding piece. I always appreciate your talent as well as your comments during the process. Take good care, Sir. Dan
I am usually not a fan of hollow forms but this one speaks to me and I love it. I didn't realize that I needed someone to tell me that a hollow form is to be appreciated the same way that you would appreciate a painting on the wall or a sculpture. This truly is a work of art and your admiration is its purpose.
That is beautiful. As an artist, (painter) I can appreciate art for art's sake. Your piece doesn't have to do anything other than inspire us with its beauty.
The resin color is outstanding. A very fine work of art sir, stunning. Thank you for all your hard work, and thank you for sharing your hard work with us.🌿 👍👍👍👍👍
Announcing the latest in the line of hoped-for Sprague T-Shirts! "Thicker Bottoms Are More Stable on the Table!" Words of wisdom. I could almost hear the gasps when Jim first applied the denatured alcohol to the hollowform and the resin colors came alive. Such a beautiful piece, and I think ALL of your pieces are works of ART! Thank you, Jim!
Wow! She is a thing of beauty that anyone would be lucky to own. 😍😍I find it so satisfying to watch these videos. Reminds me of turning wood with my Grandfather in my youth. I still have things that he helped me to make as well as his own creations. Seriously if the lighting is not doing that thing justice then it must be a truly outstanding piece! Thank you for sharing it with us 😄
The coloring is gorgeous! My late hubby left a whole workshop full of machinery and wood! I am almost ready to try the lathe! My brother does woodturning and he said the difference between art and crafts is; a bowl that doesn't hold water is an object d' art and a craft piece holds water!
Love the copper with the hypershift, it's a stunning piece. Really liked that you went with the gold on the thermal cracks. Just think that it adds so much more interest in the piece. Beautifully designed.
Wow! This week, you really hit on a absolutely stunning combination of colors and materials. Between the mystery burl, the copper resin and the hypershift flakes, it just all came together in the best possible way! I can't wait to see what you create next week!
WOW! That hollow form is absolutely stunning. The copper and hypershift is amazing. Great choice of colors. As always, thanks for sharing Jim. Take care.
Oh wow, these colours are unbelievable! This piece looks truly cosmic, Sir! And I would love to see more pictures of it on Instagram, honestly, it deserves a serious photoshoot!
Every week I think WOW what a beauty & then you surprise us all with another amazing piece. Your attention to detail & explanations are dead on. Not only an artist, but a teacher as well. Once again congratulations on 100,000 subs. Well earned and deserved!
Jim, I have watched a tremendous amount of your videos and have enjoyed and learned something from each and every one. In my opinion, this is simply the finest piece that I have watched you create. Absolutely gorgeous! The copper with the color shift adds so much to this piece. Love it. When you were showing it off after the first coat of Waterlox, I was yelling at the TV saying , "Don't bump the headstock!" My wife laughed and just shook her head. Congrats again on 100,000 subscribers!
This piece is absolutely stunning! Looking at some of your other pieces, gives me some wonderful ideas for making my afghans and quilts. You are a master of your craft.
Wow, just wow! I love how the resin and the colors do what they do. It is always fun to see how a single color and some metallic add ins work together. Makes every piece unique from casting to casting. Great turning work as well. It is awesome to learn from you each week!
All your your decisions and materials used came together beautifully and uniquely on this piece. I imagine it’s hard sometimes to let go of such gorgeous creations! Designer Epoxy and the Waterlox Gloss finish are obviously great products, and I’m sure you make them proud with Uber-art like this hollow form. Keep up the fantastic work!
Wonderful piece. The colors absolutely make this vase standout. The copper and gold gives it a more contemporary /modern style. Every week you manage to bring something new.
I'm just setting out in my wood turning journey. It so nice to have someone giving tips and explaining things for us at my level rather than just for the hard core turners that can just spend a fortune on all the kits. Many thanks
That Hypershift is just fantastic. Love the Copper color. The Gold to fill the cracks blends in great. The buarls stand out nicely. The profile is great for the hollow form. Great job.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥸😎
I just found your videos a few nights ago, and I can not stop watching them. In another life, I would do this for a living. Thank you for allowing me to live through you. Keep posting your videos, and don't change a thing!
I meant to reply sooner, but thanks for responding so fast. I aspire to become a woodturner just like you, and your videos are so instructional. Thank you. Keep turning beautiful pieces.@@SpragueWoodturning
Каждый раз вы раскрывается интересный секрет . И мне кажется, что и для вас готовая работа - это сюрприз!!! Но как же это красиво 🎉🎉🎉. На эту вазу можно смотреть часами! И при каждом повороте - чудо повторяется! Мне кажется, что расставаться с такой красотой очень жаль 😢. Хорошо, если ваши произведения попадают не просто состоятельных людям, а тем , кто умеет оценить чудо природы, и ваш труд❤🎉🎉
I have a very demanding job and these last couple weeks have been very stressful. Don’t get me wrong. I love my job. It’s just very hard sometimes. The point of that is.: as soon as I turned this episode on, and saw the colors that were being used, I started smiling and I felt my stress just melt away. This is such a beautiful piece. The colors are perfect. The shape is perfect and there’s nothing else that needs to be said. Thank you for giving me a reason to smile at the end of a hard day.
Fabulous colours. I watch a lot of woodturners but you are my favourite because I love your explanations and commentary. The new owner is going to be stoked at such a beautiful piece of art.
I really appreciate fact that you don't overturn your pieces. I get so aggravated with the guys that will have a piece looking really nice and it's like he has turning fever and keeps going for another 5 to 10 minutes on the video.🤠👍🏼🇺🇲🇨🇦
Really beautiful. Great work. I know nothing about this type of art, but I just love this piece along with all the other pieces that I have watched you do. I was telling my husband how you make these pieces and showed him a few. We find your work amazing.
Your work totally amazes me. This piece you absolutely outdid yourself. Love watching the process you show each time. Have watched for some time and you never disappoint me. Thank you very much . Your beautiful work makes this old girl very happy 😊 😃 ❤🙏🇨🇦 .
Holy cow, Jim! This piece has so much character! The waterfalls of resin keep the eye moving and the hyper shift adds whole new dimensions of depth. You can almost see the patterns moving about. At a guess, I'd wager that is an oak variant or even sweet gum, but my money is on red or black oak just by the grain and formation. The touches of gold really balance it out, so I agree that cutting back the collar was a good choice. The profile is extremely pleasing with the taper towards the bottom. Truly a piece of artistic perfection ❤. I love your bowls, but I've come to the conclusion that the hollow forms are where you really let go and just have crazy fun with a project and it shows in the levels of creativity each of your hollow forms showcases. Keep being awesome 💫
Stunning piece you created. Look like it could have come out of the tomb of Pharoah Tut. I agree with you that it's one of your best pieces I watched you create. Keep on inspiring the turners of the world. I'm from South Africa
I love the form! And I really appreciate you walking through the process step by step, and throwing in tips and advice as you're turning. It's super helpful for us beginners.
Absolute stunner! The way the light dances on it makes it look like it’s alive. Have you ever considered showing the pieces in sunlight? Nicely done, once again!
Words do not give this stunning piece justice! Definitely #1. Going to be hard to top this one! The shape is perfect, the burl amazing, the copper and gold … I’m speechless! Goosebump worthy! ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Jim the burls were great and I loved the copper and then the white and yellow on the top. The hollow form is a great piece of art, you really have outdone yourself this time Jim, It is magnificent and unique. Thank you for a marvellous video, take care. Amanda xxxx
I don't think I've ever wanted to see something in person so badly before! What a stunning piece of art for the lucky new owner. I hope it gets to be somewhere that it is seen and admired frequently.
❤ Well, I have changed my mind and now this copper hollow form is my favorite! I am in love with this piece.❤ You truly are growing into a great artist, Jim. I love that you went with the pearl gold as it complimented the copper and wood, joining them in harmony. If your wife picked the pearl gold, kudos! I would say to you, keep up the good work, but your work is outstanding, unique and a cut above all others. The highlight to my week is watching Jim's video. I'm saving up my pennies so that one day I can own " A Sprague"! 😍
When you first started I thought it would be to dark but I was so wrong. This is such a gorgeous piece of art. The wood lends soft light points while the copper makes it glow. Thank you
Oh my.... GEEEWOWZA! Honestly speechless.... it's hands down my favorite from you, and that's saying A LOT. Love that copper/hypershift combo with that wood. Flawless, perfect, WOW 🤩. PLEASE do another like this Designer Epoxy
@SpragueWoodturning that makes me so happy!! Lol, I've watched this twice and have it in my queue to watch again! 😂 can't get enough of that... idk what to even call it, luxe earthy lusciousness? Haha 😄 🤣
Wow, oh wow. That hypershift is absolutely amazing! A stunning hollow form! I wanted to mention, when you were deciding on the fill color for the cracks I was sitting here rooting for gold - it’s a perfect choice!
The hypershift colors are spectacular. You couldn't ask for a better color for that hollow form, it's just amazing. It's a beautiful, beautiful piece!!
Total work of Art! All of your pieces are, regardless of function. The Hyper shift takes your work to a whole other level. I agree with reducing the gold rim to the thinner amount. It really fit well that way. What a beautiful piece.
I absolutely love the color combinations with the burls. They are stunning. I would love to see these same colors and burls made into a large platter, just to show off even more of the beauty you have created!
Absolutely stunning!!! I was so happy when you chose the gold for the cracks! That’s what I was hoping you would go for and it’s perfect!! Designer epoxy ♥️♥️♥️
I love hollow forms. They tend to follow the classic shapes that have the same appeal as do the forms displayed in ancient Greek , Roman, and Etruscan pottery. The eye appeal is magnificent in this piece. I love the colors as well. My favorite piece thus far. Well done!!

Yea. What she said.
I love this, absolutely beautiful
Agree with the last reply from Sharon. This hollow form is as if you have captured the entire season of Autumn!
I’m 82 started turning last year. To much fun. You don’t need to be super strong. Take a class. Find a club in your area.
People, like art pieces, don’t need to have a productive use to have value - a great point Jim!
True that! Thanks
@@SpragueWoodturning0😂
If I ever get retired from driving trucks all week ,I will start to put a turning shop in the back yard shed . I absolutely love the piece,a work of art for sure.thanx for the stress relief.
Go for it! Thank you very much!
Holy Moly .... When you first wiped the surface to show what was there ..............
Spectacular.
Thank you very much!

That’s a catchy slogan, lol. Thanks
I appreciate the way you and the piece talk to each other during the process of it coming together ❤❤
Thank you very much!
You know, that hyper shift pigment is working my love of cars into wood. I do love that copper too. It's stunning.
Thank you very much!
It's true what they say SOMEONE ELSE TRASH IT'S SOMEONE ELSE TREASURES and this is definitely in my eyes a TREASURE.
Thank you very much!
That is quite possibly the most beautiful piece you've ever made in my opinion!❤ thank you for sharing your art for the rest of us to enjoy!
Thank you very much!
Wow! She is a thing of beauty that anyone would be lucky to own. 😍😍I find it so satisfying to watch these videos. Reminds me of turning wood with my Grandfather in my youth. I still have things that he helped me to make as well as his own creations.

Hey there! It is my first time here, and boy, you definitely didn't disappoint! Simply stunning work, my friend. Well done, sir!
Welcome aboard! Thank you very much!
Love the copper with the hypershift, it's a stunning piece. Really liked that you went with the gold on the thermal cracks. Just think that it adds so much more interest in the piece. Beautifully designed.
And I thought “Gold? It won’t show.” Well, wrong again. It’s gorgeous with the pops of gold.
Thank you very much!
Wow! This week, you really hit on a absolutely stunning combination of colors and materials. Between the mystery burl, the copper resin and the hypershift flakes, it just all came together in the best possible way! I can't wait to see what you create next week!

This is one of the prettiest pieces I’ve ever seen turned.
Thank you very much!

Me: "All of your work are pieces of art" (yes, even the pepper mills).
Another beautiful piece.
Thank you so much!
Absolutely incredible work, Jim! My favorite piece you've done! It was fun chatting with you during the premiere!

Suggestion- pour a 1/2 inch at the bottom and let it set. then the pieces will not move. You will cut it away anyway.
That’s fine I you don’t have any time restraints, lol. Thanks
Love the way you use the colors
Thank you very much!
This one is breathtaking!
I see either the inside of a gorgeous cave or a bunch of waving golden seaweed. 😃 Whichever - it's award-winning!!! 🥇🏆
Thank you!
Your work is amazing!
Thank you so much!
"Give it some thought" is code for, "let me ask my wife what she thinks."
Nope, I did that all on my own, haha. Thanks

This piece is outstanding,I love the copper and hyper shift together.
Me too, thanks
Holy cow, Jim! This piece has so much character! The waterfalls of resin keep the eye moving and the hyper shift adds whole new dimensions of depth. You can almost see the patterns moving about. At a guess, I'd wager that is an oak variant or even sweet gum, but my money is on red or black oak just by the grain and formation. The touches of gold really balance it out, so I agree that cutting back the collar was a good choice. The profile is extremely pleasing with the taper towards the bottom.

Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
It’s amazing what you did with old burl and resin. It’s a magnificent piece and coloring is beautiful! Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome!
Jim, you are correct, I think this is one of your best. It is absolutely beautiful.
Wow, thank you!
I am so impressed by your skill, artistic eye, and patience.
Thank you very much!
Stunning piece you created. Look like it could have come out of the tomb of Pharoah Tut. I agree with you that it's one of your best pieces I watched you create. Keep on inspiring the turners of the world. I'm from South Africa
Awesome! Thanks so much! It feels like South Africa temperatures here the past two days! 34 degrees but “feels like” 42!
I love that you mix different materials in your pieces. I find it mesmerizing to watch you bring these pieces to life.
Thank you so much!
Love the subtlety of the gold on the edge. Stunning piece!
Thanks so much!
I love the form!
And I really appreciate you walking through the process step by step, and throwing in tips and advice as you're turning. It's super helpful for us beginners.
Awesome! Thank you!
I love how these pieces turn out Jim you are certainly very talented !!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much!
Absolutely fantastic piece, really love it!
Thank you for another awesome video!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful work! This is the first video my wife and I found of yours.
Welcome aboard! Thanks
I watch your videos every week Jim and I agree that this is probably one of the best . I absolutely love the colour and shape of this piece. X
Thank you very much!
I am always amazed at what you do with designer epoxy and a couple of pieces of wood.
Thank you! Cheers!
I love how it twinkles under the lights in close up shots.
Me too, thanks!
I LOVE THE NEW PIGMENT . BEAUTIFUL PIECE.
Thank you very much!
Absolute stunner! The way the light dances on it makes it look like it’s alive. Have you ever considered showing the pieces in sunlight? Nicely done, once again!
I wanted to do some outside shots but it was raining that day. Thanks
Words do not give this stunning piece justice! Definitely #1. Going to be hard to top this one! The shape is perfect, the burl amazing, the copper and gold … I’m speechless! Goosebump worthy!
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much!
Love the richness of the metallic blend 👍🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you very much!
You are TRULY an inspiration, for art ideas, procedures and processes. Thanks for your channel. And Designer Epoxy!
You are so welcome!
Love the copper theme. The colors did show up better in the spinning video. Spectacular! Lots of sparkle!
Designer Epoxy
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely a stunning piece...like walking through a lichen and mossy forest. Magical!
Thank you very much!
Certainly my favourite of the many wonderful pieces I have seen you produce. Congrats. Dennis

I love that you went with the pearl gold as it complimented the copper and wood, joining them in harmony. If your wife picked the pearl gold, kudos!

When you first started I thought it would be to dark but I was so wrong. This is such a gorgeous piece of art. The wood lends soft light points while the copper makes it glow. Thank you
Thanks so much
Beautiful use of the designer epoxy. I love the way the colors complement, shimmer and shine.
Thank you for explaining the laser.
Thank you very much!
Oh my.... GEEEWOWZA! Honestly speechless.... it's hands down my favorite from you, and that's saying A LOT. Love that copper/hypershift combo with that wood. Flawless, perfect, WOW 🤩. PLEASE do another like this
Designer Epoxy
Glad you like it! We sure will. Thanks
@SpragueWoodturning that makes me so happy!! Lol, I've watched this twice and have it in my queue to watch again! 😂 can't get enough of that... idk what to even call it, luxe earthy lusciousness? Haha 😄 🤣
Wow, oh wow. That hypershift is absolutely amazing! A stunning hollow form! I wanted to mention, when you were deciding on the fill color for the cracks I was sitting here rooting for gold - it’s a perfect choice!
Agreed, thanks!
Hands down my favorite. The colors, shape, burl... everything is ridiculously beautiful. I imagine in person it's even better❤ kudos Jim!
Thank you so much!
That is superb Jim!! Can’t wait to see that hypershift in black!!!
Thank you very much!
I'm calling that the copper nebula, Awesome as always Jim.
Great name! Thanks!
Love the hypershift and the contrasting colors,great work.
Thanks a lot!
The hypershift colors are spectacular. You couldn't ask for a better color for that hollow form, it's just amazing.
It's a beautiful, beautiful piece!!
Couldn't agree more! Thanks
Your choices start to finish were spot on. Great turning.
Glad you think so! Thanks
Total work of Art! All of your pieces are, regardless of function. The Hyper shift takes your work to a whole other level. I agree with reducing the gold rim to the thinner amount. It really fit well that way. What a beautiful piece.
Thank you very much!
Definetly not to be missed! Love love love it.
Thank you very much!
Loving the way you explain each step in your videos... This is a beautiful vase / bowl an the touch of gold on the rim .❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much 😊
I absolutely love the color combinations with the burls. They are stunning. I would love to see these same colors and burls made into a large platter, just to show off even more of the beauty you have created!
Thank you so much!
SHINY! I like the darker patches, always a fan of dark colours alongside a strong wood presence. Little bit of shimmer and it's perfection.
Thank you so much!
Absolutely stunning!!! I was so happy when you chose the gold for the cracks! That’s what I was hoping you would go for and it’s perfect!!
Designer epoxy ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely the Best Channel for Knowledge, Skill, Talent, Overall Information and Creativity Inspiration. Thank You Jim
Wow, thank you!
Just WOW beautiful piece. The colors look like flowing water down the vessel. Good color choice.
Thank you! Cheers!
That copper is outstanding. The wood worked well on this piece. Good Job Jim
Thank you very much!
Hi. I just watched this video again and was blown away by its beauty. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks
I love hollow forms. They tend to follow the classic shapes that have the same appeal as do the forms displayed in ancient Greek , Roman, and Etruscan pottery. The eye appeal is magnificent in this piece. I love the colors as well. My favorite piece thus far. Well done!!
Thank you so much!
