This project was a result of me chomping at the bit to try something different. I have used this stabilizing technique on a few projects, and I wanted to try it on a larger scale. The chunk of maple I started with came from a tree that fell over 5 years ago, and it had been kicking around my shop slowly decaying, spalting, and rotting until I finally built a wood-drying kiln last year. Needless to say, this chunk of wood probably would have been rejected even as firewood given how much rot was present, but for my purposes that was what made it so enticing. The stabilization process of applying and cutting back many thin layers of epoxy ensured that the wood became more and more stable, and by adding color and pigments the grain structure absorbed and dispersed the resin in very unique "natural" ways. In the world of fine furniture, the staining effect that tinted resin has on wood is generally considered a negative. However, one of the advantages of using this "staining" technique is that it does not end up changing the original color from the entire surface of the wood. Rather, it chooses the path of least resistance, staining only the softer areas and leaving the harder areas virtually untouched. Let's call it an artificial way to enhance the natural variances in wood density.
I have a bit of a waiting list of commissions, but let me know if you want to see more projects like this. The ideas are limitless! Also, let me know what you think of that black interior. I have been wanting to try the Black 4.0 for a while, and I felt it enabled me to lean in to the rough and imperfect finish on the interior in a way that embraces the struggle... blah blah blah ok fine yes I was just trying to hide my lazya$$ tool marks and the ugly punky wood. No biggie, but I kinda like it this way.

I really love this piece. You do excellent work. This piece is museum worthy, it looks like a relic from the past. Congratulations on your new baby. "I want your splatter."
Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much!
Congratulations, @Patty-ki1to you are the winner! Please contact me at david@adamsenwoodcraft.com with your shipping details.

If I don't hear from you by then, I will choose another winner.
Good morning 🌅, I am new to your channel, great looking 👀 project, I have just looked back at your channel, some very interesting work projects, I have some interesting pieces to, very similar to yours, I am hoping to turn them later in the year, I need to get some resin and pigment, keep up the good work, France.
It's both so bizarre and so amazing ! Thank you for the video ! 😊
Thanks for watching!
That reverse shot of the bore entering the piece seen through the hole in the side was a great moment. I imagine setting up the cameras to catch all these satisfying shots must significantly extend the work time.
Thanks and yes it certainly does!
@@DavidAdamsen Well, you should know that the effort is definitely noticed and appreciated.
@@ForsakenGrevas Well thank you, I appreciate that!
WOW David!!!! What a piece you have created. At first I thought a whole resin pour, thanks for not going that way. The resin style you did is awesome.
You worked with what mother nature gave you and you created an absolutely gorgeous turning.
Thanks for sharing David.
Thank you very much!
coincido, pensé lo mismo y tuve miedo. Esta creación es maravillosa, es escultura.
The black inside actually creates a sense of shape and dimension. Really impressed at how the finished object looks.
Thanks so much!
It is perfectly imperfect; just like a wicked smile ... Thanks mate for sharing with us. Loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
It's very unique and very beautiful, like always. It get really happy when I see you have a new video out. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
Remarkable videography. Other worldly.
Thanks so much!
So difficult to turn, so strange to look at. Yet at the same time, I couldn't stop watching. I always enjoy watching you turn truly amazing pieces.
Thank you very much for watching!
As you were finishing, only one word came to mind.....Organic.
🤌🤌🤌🤌
love the modern X-ray effect that doesn't remove from your classic look
It always amazes me every time I watch one of your vids. You,sir, are damn good at what you do!
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching!
@@DavidAdamsen I've been watching you for a couple of years and i will not miss a video of yours.
Thank you for sharing your amazing artistry with us!
Thanks for watching!
It looks like an ancient piece that survived a fire...or some primordial being that has a truly wicked grin 😊 Also, congratulations on the baby!🎉
Lol thank you!
@@gratchets I agree! It's either beautiful, or I'll never look at butternut squash as something to eat again!
AMAZING! This is the kind of turning I LOVE! Even before hollowing it out...Bizarre is beautiful 😁👍💙 (oh...I want your splatter!!!)
Flawless, David. Just wonderful the way you worked it with the different treatments and colours. Incredible production.
Thanks so much!!
Wow! That's amazing! I loved watching you work the inside, That's a view we don't often get to see. That Black 4.0 is something else.
Thanks Karen!
I want your splatter..
..never thought I'd be saying that today when I got up this morning! 😁
Seriously, really enjoyed the video.. masterful work as always..truly a work of art. Kudos 😉👍
Took us on a great journey! Wonderful work as always.
Thank you John!
Beautiful, David. The effect from the multiple layers of stabilization is great. The black interior and edges was a perfect finish there, too. Congratulations on the new addition to your family.
Bill
Thank you so much, Bill!
We absolutely love how this turned out!!!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. I like it a lot. You put a lot of time and effort to into your pieces and I enjoy watching.
Thanks very much!
this is a very cool and interesting piece. the mat interior is great. i like that big grin.
Thank you very much!
What a stunning piece of lathe-turned art! Just Superb. Thanks!
Thank you very much!
I was excited to see a new video from you this morning. It didn’t disappoint.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
For the first 15 minutes I thought "It's impossible to polish a turd.", but with enough talent and ingenuity we've been shown it can be done.
Great work David! Thanks for sharing it with us
Stunning piece, David! Amazing work!!! 😃
It's great to see you back!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you and same to you!
As you so often do, amazing piece. A gentle curved shape broken by the voids, really well done. Really liked the layering of color with the epoxy to stabilize was great, gives such depth. Personally I liked the natural grain on the inside, but the flat black does a great job enhancing both the voids and keeping the eye on the outside shape.
Thank you so much!
A LOT of work but awesome result! As usual these videos of yours are both relaxing yet tension inducing (due to possible breakage) That blacked out interior came out so well! I always look forward to the next one David!
Thank you very much for watching!
Unique and complex! Amazing work!!
Thank you!
This would make such a cool lamp! Nicely done.
Thank you!
I'm glad I logged in for another David Adamsen video. 🪵
Me too!
"I Want Your Splatter" but not only that. This piece is gorgeous. I love the contrast from the flat black/grey to the multi-colored exterior! Great job David!!!
Thank you so much William!
Beautiful! Wonderfully creative!
Thank you, Peter!
It still lives on love it
Thanks!
Love the videography!
Much appreciated!
That's certainly something very different. Very nice.❤❤🎉
Thanks Karen!
C'est toujours un plaisir de vous regardez créer.
Merci depuis la Nouvelle-Calédonie. 🌺🌿🇨🇵
Thanks so much for watching! Cheers from 🇺🇸
Absolutely fantastic piece! Very nice! 👍
Thanks Marco!
Wow! Absolutely stunning. The process was confusing until the red, but I still had no idea what was coming. I love the distressed, weathered look.
Thanks for watching!
Incredibly beautiful art...
Thank you!
Astonished at the creativity on show here. Simply outstanding
Thank you!
I love it and I like that it's open ❤
"I want your splatter!" 😂
Sure, I want your splatter! Not sure how it will work into a piece, but why not enjoy pondering the possibilities.
Beautiful piece!!
And
It also looks like the Mayor in "The Nightmare Before Christmas" ---amazing!!
I was very uncertain about this peace but I was wrong -- It turned out just beautiful -- great job!
Thanks Lynda!
I can see the wicked smile😀
The way you execute your video arrangement is aww…mazing!😍
Hats off!!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! ❤️
Beautiful work as always.
Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic.
Thanks Steve!
i *love* the matte black interior
👊
This looks amazing, and that dried resin cup looked awesome as well. I want your splatter
Wow! Just WOW! ❤❤❤
❤️
You inspire me. Thank you!
Wow, thank you! I appreciate you watching!
I like the shape of the vessel. I'm not sure about the red though. I do appreciate your work and very much enjoy your videos. Keep it up.
Thanks for your candor, Paul!
First I didn't understand why applying a layer of color to the piece and then removing it by turning over it. Then the result began to appear, and I realized it was genius: the various successive colors that have penetrated unevenly into the wood according to its density and inclusions give it unequalled color and volume. Well done! Beautiful video again.
Thank you so much!
Oh my! Amazing artwork and. Feist for our eyes. Thank you.
Thank you too!
I love watching your videos 😻
Thanks!!
I might be too late but i really want your splatter. Im a fluid artist who grew up around art of every medium...glass, wood, clay, metal, paint. I love your videos. There's two other woodworkers i watch and its so neat to see the distinct styles of each of you. Your art is amazing and anyone would be lucky to win a piece. ❤
Thanks for watching!
My goodness gracious!, what an absolutely stunning piece. It looks like an archeologist found it in a newly discovered cave and is about to be placed in a museum dedicated to exceptional ancestral artifacts. Love the black interior. Oh yeah, I want your splatter.
Fantastic camera work loved it
Thank you very much!
FINALLY 👏 ...Red is my favorite color and I have searched for videos, where the artist are using red epoxy.
Of all the videos ive seen its almost only black, dark blue, dark green and purple - so now im going to keep an eye out for your videos in hope of seeing the reds again.
Nice Vase - all though it was a little nerve wrecking along the way.
Well thanks so much! You won’t have long to wait!
That beautiful, you always do beautiful work ❣️❣️❣️
Thanks so much!
I want your spatter it’s stunning 🤩
3. This video is definitely worth watching. It's magical to see how simple materials can be turned into useful and creative items. I highly recommend this video to anyone interested in DIY projects
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely stunning!
Thanks!
As always amaing work ! Thank you for sharing
Thank you!
BOM DIA DAVID, MUITO BOM FICOU ESSA PEÇA, PARABENS, PELA TECNICA USADA , PARABENS.
Wow. That looked like a rough turn but was well worth it in the end.
Thanks so much!
Beutiful , no suprise here. Nice job.
Thank you!
Wow, that was a lot of work!
Yes, many many days!

Thank you very much!
AMAZING CRAFTSMANSHIP!!
Thank you!
👍👍👍Grandios!
Verry good!....Perfect! 👍👍👍👍👍😀
Thank you!
if i write " i want your robust" can win it instead of the splatters? 😈🤣 To be serious your are a real artist, continue inspire us with yours creations.
Thanks! Lol I really wish I could give away a Robust AB. Maybe someday!
Great art! Is the real talent the turning or the gift of being able to see the potential of a peice of wood almost everyone would throw away. Think the latter.
Thank you very much!
I want your splatter. I love these videos!
Absolutely gnarly my guy! Super cool.
Thanks Nathan
Welcome back! Other vloggers I’ve been watching just don’t match your style, craftsmanship, or creativity.
Your wood turning skills on the lathe are pretty darn impressive, too.
Thanks for watching!!
Your pieces are always beautiful, David.
Thank you!
Love it! I WANT YOUR SPLATTER!!
"I want your splatter" That is of course if it's still available. Love your work!
Thank you!
Clever use of the laser to see remaining thickness of wall, where the hole is…👍🏻
Wood art 🎨 ✨️ 👌 😊!!! Very well done Maestro 😊!!!!
Thank you!
Certainly does have a macabre smile doesn’t it. 😂 Great piece!
Thanks Cindy!
I kept saying “stop, stop, no more you’re going to ruin it.” Wow I’m sure glad you couldn’t hear me. Amazing!!!
Thanks! Yeah it’s always risky turning stuff like this.
Interesting piece.
Thanks.
Too cool. Love it
Thanks!
Definitely do another project like this!
🤌✌️
Amazing piece must have taken you days. Always enjoy your videos the phototherapy is always stunning let alone the work pieces you turn. 😊
Thanks so much!
The keyhole and the view through it are quite mesmerizing! Someone did some great camera work.
Very interesting stabilizing method. Another turner I watch recommends using a silicone barbecue brush to avoid hairs getting stuck in epoxy.
Thank you very much! Yes, the silicone brushes work some of the time I’ve found that they aren’t as good at controlling the amount of epoxy as bristle brushes are.
WOW, I mean WOW!
✌️
wow. the end result!
Thanks!
