Every time I watch one of your videos, I think to myself that you have created a masterpiece. But then you post a new creation that exceeds what I have seen before. Absolutely love this one. You are a true woodworking artisan! 👏👏👏☮️
Pristine! My compliment is that you both picked the colour of the resin perfectly, and you made a great form with carbide tools. So often when I see carbide used it has little to no form. Your vessel is sharp!
I really appreciate you taking the time to create and post this video. Particularly because my unopened Christmas gift is sitting 12’ away from me, awaiting Christmas Eve. I picked it out and can’t wait to use it. A California Air Tools 365CR 5 gallon Pressure Pot. This aspect of turning is completely new to me so your video is very helpful and appreciated.
Thank you very much Jim. Much appreciated. I’m at a point where I’m not sure what I enjoy more. The filming and editing or the woodworking. Thanks for the compliments. I hope you have a great day! Scott
@ I’m kind of in the same place. I really like making things but the videos are a whole other job and skill unto themselves. I think you either have to be a production turner or make the videos the “product”. I’m leaning toward the latter as I prefer making art.
Thank you very much Mike. Really appreciate it. I think it’s probably my best turning so far. Was definitely a fun one. I hope you have a great day! Scott
This is *stunning*! It's such a shame that you're colorblind, because the colors you chose for the resin really compliment and bring out the beauty of the wood grain. I follow a few woodworkers here on TH-cam and I'm constantly impressed and left in awe at everything you all create. This is top-tier!
After you removed the bark this piece reminded me on a roasted chicken. But the final result is awesome. By the way: You cut off your beard. Bummer! You looked very cool with it.
Absolutely stunning you Sir have become an amazing artist and masterpiece craftsman at wood tuning. Keep up the amazing work. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family 🎉🍾🎊🍻
I’m a new subscriber, I’ve watched a few of your videos and I really like your content. This one turned out to be a stunning piece of work. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! I was bummed when it fell off. Luckily it’s filling in nicely. Should be back to normal in no time. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great day. Scott
Hey, I wanna ask what you thought of that simple hollow system has it worked good for you and is it pretty durable and how far over your Tool rest can you get? Thanks so much, Steve.
I do really like the simple hollower. It’s the only hollowing system I’ve ever used so I do not have any comparison to test against. It seems extremely well made and durable. Fairly quick to set up. As far as reach goes that totally depends on the length of the tools used. Simple woodturning tools recently came out with 12” extended reach scrapers that look like they would work great in this system. Unfortunately I have not been able to try them out yet. The flat tool rests they make also pair really well with the hollower. They help keep down the vibration. Check description for links if interested. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great weekend! Scott
Scott, another real beauty!Great idea using cardboard tubes instead of always wrestling with poly! Longer open working time with that “ liquid glass”? Are you able to sand less in the thousands using that uv curing finish? Stay safe. Seems that epoxy doesn’t chatter and flack as much as some polyurethane ie. Alumilite clear slow?
Thank you ! The liquid glass has a much longer open time. I believe it says 80 minutes in the instructions but I fell it’s a bit longer than that. Only down side is the long cure time. I usually let it cure for about 6-7 days before turning. I don’t really notice a huge difference in the actual turning. I think the chatter/chipping is more related to tools used than the type of resin. The negative rake carbide cutters are ideal for working with resin. Thanks for watching and the comments! I hope you have a great day! Scott
Forgot one. The UV finish saves days on the finishing process. Only sand up to 800 before first coat. Second applied after 10ish minutes under the UV light. Wet sand with 1000 between coats two and three and fourth goes on like glass. Total time 1-2 hours depending on piece? Used to take days waiting in between coats.
@@dtork47 I do not use any sealer. From my experience sealer is generally used on wood to keep the finish from looking blotchy. Generally the pieces I make have so much grain variation going on that I don’t think it would even be noticeable if it was blotchy. Regardless probably best to follow manufacturer advice for “best” result. But man, the stuff is expensive so….?
This from a guy that doesn't think he's an artist. Just think of how it could have looked if you had been an artist. I'd say it would look the same ! Merry Christmas
Beautiful piece! 2 things I am amazed by - 1. The level of your resin did not drop off? Or did you have to do a secondary pour? That wood looked pretty dry and I would have assumed it would have absorbed a lot of the resin. And 2 - even with that large a pour you got no thermal cracking!!
Thanks Amy. I did not do a second pour. I was actually a little concerned about moisture on this one ( this piece ended up taking about five weeks). I was putting in an oven every night after work for a week to make sure it was good and dry. I’ve still never had any thermal cracking using this resin. I’m sure I’ll find the limit one day. As always, thanks for watching and leaving an engaging comment. I hope you have a wonderful day! Scott
@@squareandlevel I'm looking at the instructions for the deep pour and they refer to a seal coat. I don't recall seeing you do that step. Is it necessary?
Do you keep it in the pressure pot for the 72 hours? I am used to a resin that requires only 4-6, but I would get thermal cracking with that amount of pour. It would be worth 72 hours to get no cracking!!
@ yes, I leave it in the pot for a minimum of 72 hours. I assume you are using slow cast urethane resin. There are up and down sides to both. If you like to mix different colors in your pieces, the slow cast is much better at keeping them separated. The slow cure time of the epoxy lets the colors all blend together into one. It’s also pretty nice to be turning 5 hours after a pour with the slow cast. If you decide to try the epoxy I recommend paying attention to the minimum temperature in the area and find a way to keep it around 75 degrees F. The only time I’ve had any issues is if it’s too cold. Hope this helps. Have a good day! Scott
Beautiful vase, but you know that, you've seen it up close. It took me about 3 seconds to figure out what was wrong. Your beard fell off, that happened to me once. 😎
Every time I watch one of your videos, I think to myself that you have created a masterpiece. But then you post a new creation that exceeds what I have seen before. Absolutely love this one. You are a true woodworking artisan! 👏👏👏☮️
Thank you very much for the kind words! I hope you have a great day!
Scott
I feel the same way.
@@Charlielizard Outstanding!
The very BEST pour job I have ever seen, just clean!

Lovely almond wood vase. Bravo sir for the color choice as well!!❤
That is a stunning piece. Fantastic job on your part.

this is really nice! a beautiful piece of art!!!!
Thank you so much!
I didn’t think I was going to like this, but it turned out beautiful. That rich red paired so well with the wood. Amazing work.
Good luck 🎉
Stunning piece. One of the best I've seen on TH-cam.
Thank you so much. Very kind of you. Hope you have a great day!

This is just stunning! I love the movement of the wood as it appears to sweep across the vase, and that deep red is gorgeous!

This looks great and the production is pulling away from the pack in videography and presentation. Loved it!
☺️thank you sir.
I agree!!!
I am amazed by your skill and cannot stop watching, just subd

Thank you so much. Your new video was good as well. Got me thinking if I need one of those🤔.
@ 😂 it’s really awesome so far
Beautiful vase and also the vid is nicely filmed and artfully put together.
Thanks! I really enjoy the filming and editing process almost as much as the woodturning itself. I hope you have a great day!

beautiful piece really pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!Larry from USA
Thanks Larry! I appreciate it.
My favorite so far. Keep 'em coming.
Thank you! More to come!
That came out BEAUTIFULLY. AWESOME W

That is absolutely amazing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
Thank you!

Eine sehr schöne Vase 👌
You see wood far better than most who do this.
That’s a great solid lathe, General use to be the Cadillac.
Watching from Vancouver Island 🏝️🇨🇦👍
Wow, this is awesome. Nice work!! I didn't recognize the turner without the beard though!
Thank you very much! I know, it’s gone for now, but it will be back soon.
I had to check that it wasn’t a friend or relative who had commandeered the workshop.
This is just incredible work…
Nothing but respect 🫡
🤜🏾🤛🏾💯💪🏾awesome
Thank you very much! Hope you have a great day!
@ your work is amazing and beautiful
I respect your hard work very much
And one day I will have a shop to follow your footsteps
🤜🏾🤛🏾💪🏾💯respect
Wow! Gorgeous!
Amazing piece, makes me want a hollowing setup!
Тамаша, өнерің өркендей берсін.

Thank you!
One of you best , yet sir. Really love it. Congratulations
Thank you very much!
Absolutely amazing.
Thank you!
Oh! Beautiful!
Beautiful! God Bless!
Beautiful Piece and interesting process
Love it ❤❤❤
Beautiful piece of art I can’t say I’m gonna miss that beard
Another absolutely stunning piece. Well done. Oh, and I understand your channel is all about the art and the process, but I do miss the beard. 😉
Thank you so much! ( beard is returning shortly). Thanks for watching. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Scott
Sick..... love it!
Thank you sir! It was a fun one for sure. Have a good one!
Trabalho maravilhoso, lindo!
Saudações do Brasil!🔝
After you removed the bark this piece reminded me on a roasted chicken. But the final result is awesome.
By the way: You cut off your beard. Bummer! You looked very cool with it.
Thank you! Beards already filling back in nicely. Have a good one and thanks for watching!
Luar biasa mantap 🎉
Love it! Another great video. Thanks and merry Christmas
Wow!
Super, Təşəkkürlər❤
Looks great.
Beautiful
thank you for showing us your gorgeous work
12:55 sir, may I ask which finish do you use?
Thanks for watching! Check description for links to products used. Hope you have a great day!
Amazing!!
Absolutely fantastic. A little dark rich green with this red would have been a nice Christmas vase. Not that it would top this though.
Does the light make things easier? Can it be used as more than a rough estimate of location?
The laser definitely makes the hollowing process easier. Helps to not have to constantly bend over and look in there. Thanks for watching!
Perfeito!!!
Absolutely stunning you Sir have become an amazing artist and masterpiece craftsman at wood tuning. Keep up the amazing work. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family 🎉🍾🎊🍻
Dude, where is your beard ????? Nice vase by the way 😂
Ah! I haven't been watching in order! Your beard fell off! 😁 Lovely video as always! 🥰

And, addressing "the elephant in the room" - How long had it been since "Johnny Razor" had visited?
Thank you! Beard had to go for a bit. It’s currently making a comeback. Should be back in no time. Hope you great day!
Please, can you tell me how tall is that vase?
Thank you ❤
10 inches. Thanks for watching!
