Underrated comment
StOp it 😄
Ouch!!!!! :D
Oh this comment needs more thumbs up. Pinned.
SPECTACULAR
That bowl is destined to be on a grandparent's coffee table filled with Werther's Original.
That's exactly what I was thinking! Lol
Exactly !
Yes. Yes it is. 🍮
Be glad to have it on my table filled with Werthers
@V1DE0 Hahaha love this comment.
Wife: what are you watching? Me: no idea, but I’m 12 minutes into it.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Absolutely beautiful.
.... and I've already bought one tool that I saw in an ad.
Ha! Same here. Mesmerizing. And flat out gorgeous when done! Nice job. 👍🏼
yes, with all the music changes, epoxy resin drips, pouring, and sprays,..... its hard to tell what kind of video this is ...
I think you should take your bowl to Home Depot and show that guy what you did with their “trash.” That’s beautiful, nice work! 👍
Hahahaha the wife said the same thing as we passed by there last night.
@@MoonpieCreations seriously, do a quick video of the Home Depot seeing the trash you stole. should be commercial they should use.
“Home Depot, even our trash is beautiful!” pic of bowl.
Sloppyballs McGuillicutty Great idea! It may inspire someone to explore ways in which they can re-purpose materials that would otherwise end up in the landfill.
@@rapunzel39 actually, its the kind of fun filled shenaniganz I've started doing as of recently. I figured why not-especially the cardboard aspect since many stores toss their cardboard into separate dumpsters-so that material is pretty easy to come by and not necessarily having to worry about if their is something mysteriously spilled on the cardboard that may smell questionable sketchy. Now if only I could find free acetate to go with the Styrofoam to make my waterproof adhesive for the cardboard projects, Id be a happy dumpster diving diva!!😎🤙
@@SloppyballsMcGuillicutty I know, right? I´m thinking the next Super Bowl.
Who would have thought ordinary packing material combined with resin could ever turn out so beautiful?
Excellent job, sir!
Thank you
I work for a corrugated manufacturer and this is probably the best use of scrap honeycomb I've ever seen.
Where are you and do you need a structural designer? I miss drawing stuff in ArtiosCAD.
I think it’s amazing. I hope that you can sell it if you choose to I’m sure you could sell their amazing
Looked like a therapeutic endeavor! It turned out to be a beautiful work of art!!! I love the way God has created and blessed people with so many amazing talents and abilities. 💖
@7.six2 Job hunting the conventional way hasn't been working so here we are. 40 years in corrugated.
You think mummifying a compostable material in toxic plastic and then wasting 80 percent of it is the best use of this scrap material?
It honestly seems like one of the worst uses of this material that I could imagine. Burning it would be a more productive use.
I didn’t think it would turn out as gorgeous as it did. This is a beautiful bowl. You are a truly gifted artist.
Thank you so much 😀
You turned cardboard into an precious exotic stone. Alchemy!
Stone?
Petrification..... :-)
Anything understood poorly enough can be magic.
The bowl is gorgeous, art gallery worthy. Watching the details of the lathe work is very interesting.
Thank you very much!
Not just a bowl. A work of art worthy of being in a modern art museum or gallery. Don't forget to sign your work.
Bottom centre precision done with a laser and a damned good logo would be perfect.
It's a bowl. Doesn't take any skill at all. Been working with resin for a while and now own my own business.
Just I do better items.
This is 2 a penny

I would love to see this done with different colours. Blues or greens would be ideal. I see it looking like dragon scale!
That would be cool!
I like your idea too.

Metallic blue or green
Me toooooo!
Of all the things I expected turning epoxy to be, "an amazing source of silly string" was not one of them. Gorgeous results.
Hahaha so true.
This is beautiful. My dad kept bees so he would have love it! He actually had a lathe and taught me to turn.
That is awesome. I love when a parent passes on the skill of turning to a child. My boys aren't interested, but my Granddaughter turned her first pen the other day.
@@MoonpieCreations that's awesome
I have a friend who's seriously into bees. I'd love to make this for her someday.
Am i the only 1 who thinks that his bowl looks like honeycomb sealed in amber? That bowl is very pretty!
This is absolutely gorgeous. I’ve never watched turning before, but can see an addiction in the making!
Thank you so much 😀
@@MoonpieCreations I watched a few videos of turning. You know, watching TH-cam and getting to a video where you say "How in the heck did I get here?" but I have to say that process was mesmerizing and that bowl came out beautiful !
@@Eleivana777 Thank you.
@@Eleivana777 exactly. Don't know how I ended up here, but this was fascinating and the result of beautiful. I had a friend that made turned bowls that he sold in galleries, but I've never seen the process.
@@MoonpieCreations How about doing a video of turning one inch wood plugs? First dump the plugs into setting bowl first, then filled with black or silver resin, or even layer the colored resin into three color stages, silver, black and gold. Those colors would compliment the natural wood color of the plugs. Just an idea.
I really enjoy seeing projects made from unusual materials. This bowl is amazing!
Thank you
Like grandpa always said "One man's trash is another man's treasure", and you defiantly made trash into treasure. Beautful.
Thank you Janeen
The Honey Nut Cheerios are going to taste so good when you eat them out of that bowl
taste of honeycomb cardboard ?
Yum yum!
Is this beautiful bowl safe to ear from?
Legit results! Probably the first time I've ever clicked a link saying "You'll Never Believe The Results" and was genuinely stunned.
One of my greatest joys in life was visualizing something in my head and then making it a reality. Unfortunately I can no longer do that, but you sir are amazing. Such a wonderful imagination that leads to such beauty, you have my admiration and respect.
Thank you so much.
looks like honeycomb from a hive honey and all, Great job Ken !
Thanks Doug.
@Ryan Ryan lol
Yes! You should call this 1 the Honeycomb Bowl. That's the 1st thing I thought of. So neat!!!
As a beekeeper I approve this message.
About to type same thing 😅✌
For a little while there, you looked like you'd been attacked by a whole classful of kids with silly string.
Hahahahaha, true
lols... " and clean-up is a breeze"
I thought it looked like silly string too! 😊👍
@@unspecifiedvee2876 🌬️literally!
I'm not gonna lie, when the music came on, I thought it would be porn music. Sorry for taking it in a vulgar direction.
Someone 1000 years from now will dig this up and think "wow, I wonder how this was made"
I can see it now "Did aliens teach ancient humans this bowl making technique?"
Maybe TH-cam will still be around and they can see for themselves.
GIANT BEES
It will be a nice bowl for someone's cave in a nuclear wasteland. 😊
Nice design. Love the colour and honeycomb combination. They compliment each other very well.
Is there any way that you can cast without wasting so much resin? How about a wax coated tapered plug that’s a bit smaller than the intended inside of the bowl?
Thank you for sharing
My exact thinking... that was a lot of waste material...
Hey G58, There was a way. I could have made the wood waste block larger, but there are a few issues. 1. I wasn't sure if the cardboard would hold up to the resin. 2. I wasn't sure of the shape of the final bowl. 3. The bowl was only 7 in in diameter. There's only some much resin to save. In the end not much of these shavings went to waste. I recycle about 85% of all my shavings (wood and resin) into other bowls. I made a video using a larger waste block and you will see the issues I encounter. At the end of the video I explain a few things about this process: th-cam.com/video/1yYgsHl5a5I/w-d-xo.html
@@monkeybarmonkeyman Thank you. I hate pointless waste. For one thing it’s a waste of money, but it’s also a waste of time and resources, and lazy, as well as environmentally damaging.
Peace
Edit
After @Moonpie Creations responded, I get where he’s coming from. That will teach me not to jump to conclusions, and do more research.
@@MoonpieCreations Cool. I missed that. Thank you for explaining your process. I get it now.
@@G58 just here to say I love and appreciate your humility within your updated reply 😊
How about using those same ingredients to create a light fixture. Can you imagine how beautiful that would be with a light shining thru it?!?!
Yes! A modified shape would sell an LED lamp (low heat).
Love to see that! Great suggestion!!
This is my first visit to ur site.
All I kept thinking during the process was how did he conceive this idea. It is brilliant, in every way.
As a latent self-proclaimed mixed media artist myself , I get the wonder and excitement of ideas and inspirations but sharing the process with you was truly a gift to me.
It belongs in a gallery. I greatly admire your unique genius.
When you was polishing it,it looked like a Werther’s original!!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. 🤣
Beautiful
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏
Haha, same thought over here.
This piece is stunning. Gorgeous one of a kind. I very much enjoyed watching how you created this. Do you have a shop?
I do Sarah it is moonpiecreations.com I also do commissions. Email moonpiecreations2014@gmail.com for pricing.
This was my first time watching your channel. I was thoroughly pleased and your ending cracked me up. I love me some southern boys a'talkin! Great job!
Glad you enjoyed!
Quite beautiful and original, can't say I've ever seen a bowl quite like it.
Thank you
That is just Georgious
So I am “dreaming” about the massive amounts of cast off strings.... would love to use them in a mixed media ocean piece.
That would be awesome. Neat idea.
I kept thinking about that, too
So, so beautiful. Never seen anything like it. Thanks for sharing your art!
My pleasure 😊
1st thought: what is this weirdo doing?
2nd thought: this genius is making a bowl!
LOL!! Right?!
And having a couple of beers....😊🤣😍😎
Never would have thought cardboard would have come out so nice, that's incredible. You're a true artist!
I'm a potter who works on the wheel of functional wares and I found your vision and end result absolutely fascinating! Keep pushing your ideas...
This is definitely a guy who doesn't blame his tools.
On the contrary he puts his most powerful tool ( his brain ) into overdrive.
Top quality work
Respect.
Thank you
Oh Wow! I never thought of refering to my brain as a tool!! So this is why all my projects turn out crap .... I has a cheap, second hand, ill used, underpowered and abused Brain!! With most of it's attachments broken or missing. It all makes perfect sense now !!
For about half the video it appeared you were just making a giant Werther's Candy. lol Nice job
Hahahaha Yes it did. Thanks.
Now I want someone to make an actual giant werthers
well that would be really a jawbreaker candy...
I'm mad about this bowl because I know I'll never be able to have one and it's so pretty.
@peddlerofsmiles I was thinking the exact same thing. Wondering if plants and flowers can be made like that.
@@grumpyone3806 Yes. Just search for resin flower bowls :)

I'm actually prepping now to make my own like this, after seeing this video. :)
When a woodturner says....'hmmmm, I wonder?' You KNOW it's gonna be cool.
😂 thanks.
Excellent work! I make models out of polymer clay and resin and have been wondering how to make a honeycomb background for a bee picture. Guess you’ve given me a solution … Well done, I do like to see true artists at work making original pieces.
Glad it was helpful! Your art sounds pretty cool.
I don't know if you still need this tip but bubble wrap could be of help if you want to create honey-comb looks
I stumbled onto wood turning videos last night. I watched them thinking of my grandfather who bought a lathe about the time of The Great Depression. I have a standing lamp of his, one of his early projects. Your creation is absolutely beautiful. Your sculptor's vision to see the potential end product is admirable. I hope my Pap was watching over my shoulder. He would have loved it.
Tina, I sat here for 15 mins with tears in my eyes. Your words moved my immensely. Thank you for that. I hope you and your family always treasure that lamp.
@@MoonpieCreations Now that comment made me cry. Much love to you. Enjoy your day. 😄
It's a beautiful finished product! The pattern on the interior of the bowl reminds me of snakeskin. You put so much work into it that you really are entitled to ask a high price for it.
Snake skin...Imagine that pattern but in a forest green with a more yellow green in the center of the bowl
I made one to look like snake skin also. th-cam.com/video/wGz8OZWnSGk/w-d-xo.html
theres an idia make one out of snake skin
My old gaffer used to say, a thing of beauty is a joy forever, he also said a smile from a child is worth more than all King Solomons gold. You obviously make quite a mess, good fun.

I just found your channel today. I admire the way you think outside, under , behind and over the box! Good job , Sir; well executed. 40+ years ago,, I had the pleasure of going shopping with the founder of the company I was with at the time.. I had heard many stories of his "shopping trips" while trying to come up with a solution to a design problem. He was from an island in the UK. Walking through a Walmart in Tucson , AZ was a trip I will never forget. Where I saw a bowl, he saw a curve; where I saw a fork, he saw a material divider. His mind was not hampered by conventional thinking. He was able to usable detail mere mortals couldn't/didn't see. I believe you may enjoy the same affliction.( meant in the highest of compliments). Stay with it. Good job!
Wow Bill thank you for that story and the compliment. I really appreciate that this morning.
When all you have is a lathe, everything looks like a bowl.
Hahahaha true
Yeah well I wish I had one
@@gottagoatme too!
Is it just me or did this comment sound a little “snarky?” Can’t you turn table legs and other types of spindles on a lathe?
This has to be the only job that looks like you've been to a party - with silly-string.
Great fun.
(that doesn't involve wearing a clown suit)
Been stuck in quarantine 2 weeks now, ran out of binge watching TV and figured I'd come see what TH-cam recommends and this was it. Seriously not disappointed, how beautiful! 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks. I hope you are freed soon.
That turned out absolutely beautiful! The color you used was perfect. I love how it looks like snake skin, especially on the inside of the bowl!
Thank you so much!
I shall never dismiss something as “just resin” ever again
Thank you
Just watching this again and I love it even more. It reminds me of a quote from the I Ching: "Even with slender means, the sentiments of the heart may be expressed." Beautiful work.
Beautiful Quote. Thank you.
i might be weird, or just really tired, but i almost drifted off to sleep listening to the tools going, something like ASMR for me
Sounding like scraping a plate with a fork to me
Normally I fall asleep to these kinda videos but that sound was fucking dreadful
Videos like this are ASMR for me aswell. If you like soothing tool work only audio type videos, check out My Mechanics. He does old/antique things restoration, no talking only tool work and great camera angles
Try watching it in x2 speed, it's soo much better.
@@Norcoo OH YEEEEEEEEEEEAH
I love the honey comb look I just keep watching it so beautiful and awesome
Thank you so much 🤗
The lathe was my favorite thing in woodshop, til it threw a piece of wood, and then i was afraid after that. My dad was an amazing wood worker, he was so detailed and his works are so beautiful. I miss him so much!
What is the purpose of the pressure pot? Quicker curing time?
@@MrAustinjeff air bubble removal?
I'm sorry your dad is no longer here. It sucks. My mom took my whole heart with her when she past. It was a car wreak. I hope you got to be with your dad and got to say goodbye. Anyways, have a good and positive day 🙋♀️
The best thing about using cardboard is that it becomes saturated by the resin. When it cures, the cardboard itself cures too
I was wondering about air pockets. But I guess that’s what the pressure pot was for? Seems like a lot of wasted resin though... Why not stick an empty (or filled) container to fill the space? Would it collapse, or perhaps the piece of wood was giving it stability when it’s turned? I don’t know much about woodwork or acrylic, for that matter. Thanks!
@@RokiMowntinHi The wood was to give the thing something to bite on the lathe. Resin can be fragile when turned, and the last thing you want is it to snap in the middle and go flying across the room and at you. Plus, wood is MUCH easier to drill out and attach than resin. The pressure pot was to make the air bubbles so tiny you cant see them. If he used a vacuum, the air would be pulled out, but the resin would foam and it would take much more time to get the bubbles out. The pressure also helps it to cure.
in like 2 years this is gonna be in everyone's recommended
That's my plan....lol
No need to wait 2 years I already got recommended this randomly...
4 months for me XD I have no idea why it was recommended to me, either.
Seems sooner than that
May the 4th be with you
I absolutely love this one! What did you finally do with the bowl? So if someone was to suggest taking several spools of every color of thread and unraveling it in clear epoxy to make a bowl with a lid, you would say, “I didn’t dream it! I ain’t making it!”? Good to know. 🙂
Hahaha. I may try that. As for the bowl I put it on my web page and it sold within 15 mins. Actually been contacted by a lot of people about these bowls. I’ve made and sold about 23 of these since.
Moonpie Creations I made a nightlight in shop class using that stuff. I have the creativity. I just don’t like cleaning up the mess. But I have to say you make it look like a party when you carve away at the lathe. 🙂
Edit: I don’t know if it’s been mentioned, but your thumbnail looks like you’re pouring syrup on waffles. 🙂
"This turned out better than I thought it would". I get it... TWO woodworker puns!
Absolutely gorgeous. Definitely a gift from the Most High. What incredible talent.! ♥️♥️♥️
A lot of times. I'll get ideas in that space between sleep and awake just before I wake up. I've learned to write them down imedeatly, even before I wake up completely. Because then their gone. It's cool that that happens to someone elce.
omg yes; me too :-)
Same. I do it with my favorite dreams, and with songs in my dreams. With three songs I record myself humming a rough draft, then remake it later.
That is one of the most amazing transformations I've ever seen, i never thought that it would turn out so spectacular, you are extremely talented and a gifted man. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Wow, thank you!
The bowl is absolutely gorgeous!!!! I love how your dream inspired you to create this unique art piece out of something most people would over look.
That is incredible - so creative and clever - love the variation in amber gold colours - well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
A beautiful piece of art, quite inviting to eat in, 'eating my honeycombs in my honeycomb'
Can you actually eat out of it would it be safe is it non toxic that’s what I want to know
Hey Man,
I stumbled on this video as a first time viewer. In a sea of resin bowls this one takes the cake, just awesome. Looking forward to your other videos. Liked and subscribed!
Welcome aboard and thank you so much.
Absolutely beautiful. I wonder if it's a "Ken" thing to be so gifted. My dad Ken passed away three years ago aged 92, but he was so talented too. There was nothing he couldn't mend and our homes are full of things he did for us, from bread boards to dining tables. He would have loved your videos and I would so love for him to be here to watch them with him.
I can't get over how gorgeous this bowl is! I would totally buy this!
That would actually be a great looking pattern on a bowling ball.
mayby might throw the balance off
@@jamieevans871 Yeah, you're right. And would probably take a lot of trial and error to figure out how to get it right, and even then it probably won't be perfect every time.

hahaha yes
I see many keys thrown in there ;)
It has a cool rattlesnake/diamondback look to that bottom.
That turned out beautiful. Very creative.
You stated that it was hard to turn due to all the resin. Could you make the wood insert larger, and cut the honey comb like a donut to reduce the amount of resin. Or would that make it structurally weak? I've never turned resin so I don't know the ins and outs of using it. Anyway, fantastic creation it turned out spectacular.
Hey Jeff, I should have done just that. At the time I was afraid the material would just collapse so I wanted more of it to make it sturdy. Now that I see it I believe a larger waste block and less resin is the way to go.
Dude, you could totally sell these. Just curious from start to finish how long did it take ?
Awesome looking bowl! Would be cool to make an actual honey jar out of this & turn a honey dipper out of it too so that it all looks like it's made from honey comb... have you filled that bowl with Honey Comb cereal yet? Lol! 🍯🍯🍯
Thanks, I did a honey pot once. Not with this stuff, but it did come out kinda cool IMO. th-cam.com/video/82oX4_4YW9w/w-d-xo.html
Simply an amazing looking piece! You have done a great job on this, and it was a great idea. Keep up the great work! We love it!!
Thank you! Will do!
So beautiful! I am a metalsmith, and I used to be a potter, but I’ve become mesmerised by these turning videos. Reminds me of throwing pottery on the wheel. Thank you for sharing your lovely work. Just incredible.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.
Stunning! First time watching & just subscribed. What art gallery represents your work? We love how generous you are about your process. Most artists would not be, make us feel like a part of it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! I sell my pieces on my web page moonpiecreations.com
would it be possible to encase some sort of gel in resin to feature a cool trapped liquid effect? I'd imagine it'd be hard to turn, but if it was closer to the center or something I could see it not spilling out
That’s gorgeous. Almost looks like a segmented bowl made with tigers eye or other stone. Great idea that Turned out amazing 😜
That's just beautiful. I like the gold color in the resin, of course, but this would be fascinating in any color.
Great idea! Beautiful work!
Thank you so much!
The bowl is really beautiful 🤩 I would love to see you make a serving tray to match that bowl.😁👍
Coming soon!
@@MoonpieCreations Don't forget the water cup!
the result is amazing but the amount of waste in the process of making this thing is even more amazing, there has to be a way of making this that is less resource consuming.
Thanks for commenting. There wasn't much waste. The bowl was only 7" in diameter when I started and the resulting bowl was just over 6.75" when complete. The shavings that were produced were recycled into other bowls. Thanks again for watching and commenting.
Don't you just love it when an artist is stunned by their own work? Truly beautiful, thank you for sharing!
Couldn't agree more!
As a Bee keeper I think that is awesome an I am sure my Queens would hire you in a wing beat!! That was GREAT 😊
Cutest comment ever!
poor guy probably gets PTSD flashbacks from cans of silly string
Oh, I thought he was gonna need an OnlyFans (:
Looks good, just a tip when making resin bowls that I use is to pour your mold only half way full then insert a wood core down the middle that is suspended to the rim of mold and weighted down so it doesn't float. It's all carved out later anyways, a lot easier on tools, faster to carve out and cheaper.
Good tip! Thanks
Or use something hollow,so you don’t”t have to waste all that resin or wood
@@soffici1 not that easy to do. But thanks.
Could that work with a Styrofoam?
(Or would the resin permeate or melt it?)
My grandfather was a bee keeper, and I would like to take up bee keeping when I finally retire, so this was very cool for me. As soon as I saw the color you were using, I knew exactly what you were shooting for.
Really neat. True "out of the box" thinking!
😂😂😂😂
Oooof!
😃 Niiiiice! 😸
Somehow, I have a feeling that the local stores are going to be missing a bunch of their "trash" sometime soon. ;) Beautiful work, sir!

Man, cutting all that epoxy looks like a hazard. I wouldn't want to breathe that dust.
Yes I totally agree. I make sure to use a high quality carbon filter in my mask.
@@MoonpieCreations and what about when it reaches the environment? how long does it take to decompose? 100? 300? 500? 1000 years? and it stays there absorving carcinogenic elements? and what when it reaches the sea, fish ingests it, then you eat the fish? congrats that's how more and more people are getting cancer these days, not silly 5g conspiranoid theories...
i'm not saying that you lads don't do these things, these are beautiful, but at least you can try to lessen the ammount of plastic residue, for example use a smaller bowl to make a cavity inside of the cast material with a similar shape of what you have invisioned, i mean, big bowl, you pour the cast material, and then you put a smaller bowl inside the cast material, with a similar shape...
@@CrazyScubaCouple I recycle about 85% of my shavings. All TotalBoat epoxies are also food safe and BPA free and will not release any toxins to the environment once cured! As for waste this bowl started out at 7” and ended up 6 3/4”. There was little waste although it looked larger on video. These resin shavings went into other bowls. Not sure why you would bring up what ever that 5G stuff is? Have a great day.
@@MoonpieCreations i'm very pleased to hear that, i wish all artisans would do the same...
i bring up the 5g thing because people are concerned about its electromagnetic waves and the effects they on organisms when one of the biggest challenges nowdays are microplastics.
keep up the good work 👍
@@CrazyScubaCouple save all that energy for major corporation plants who’s carbon footprint does way more damage to the environment in one hour than this guy will ever do in a lifetime pal 😂
I had a feeling it would turn out pretty from the start, but that turned out amazing! Very beautiful piece.
Thank you so much!
Yeah, that liquid stuff he worked with was beautiful just sitting in the bucket. lol The kind of material you have to try real hard to mess it up.
8 minutes in and it looks like a giant Werther's Original, and I can see below that I'm not the first to have that thought.
IT really does look like that. lol
"I wonder" is the utterings of a creative mind.
😃 Yes! Generally followed by four of the (arguably) most feared words in the English language: 😲 "I've got an idea!" 😆 😉
"Hmm", is the audible spark of inspiration that starts the fire of creativity.
@@CatalinaThePirate Arguably yes. I find the most feared words in the English language are "I'm from the government..."
@@saltycreole2673 😲 Boy, you got *that* right! 😳
I was joking, and NEVER would I argue that having or getting an idea is terrible. Generally I *like* people who think, and even if I think the idea is bunk, it could engender interesting conversation. 😏
I think I got that "four most feared words" from an old "I Love Lucy" show episode. Lucy could come up with the most outlandish (but at least entertaining) ideas. It really fed the show. Heh! 😁
When turning bowls like these, most of the material in the center is just cut away, why not make a much deeper and wider inner plug so you use even less materials? or are the materials cheap enough where it just doesnt matter? A bowl like that has about what 80-90% waste? with a plug of the right size, you could make two of them using the same amount of materials.
You put it so well! I’d like to see his answer 👍
I thought the exact same thing, but I liked the way you phrased the question. Seems logical to me.
That would Look like a dog‘s Bowl. As far as I know, woodturners try to avoid that kind of bowls, because it‘s pretty unelegant. With expensive woods, most woodturners use a device like a woodcut to cut out the inner Part.
@@horstp.7995 there is no reason it would have to look like a dogs bowl, just change the shape of the plug. In this case rather then a cylinder the plug shape would roughly match the shape of the bowl hes making.
Hey Jessie, Good question. I wasn't sure is the cardboard would hold up to this experiment. So I went very cautious with the waste block. Normally I would have used a much bigger one. I also do not know the shape of a bowl until I am well into shaping it. The bowl tells me the shape as I make it.
OK, I'm at 0:05. I will call what the unbelievable results are:
The end product looks good.
EDIT: Nailed it. Like, I knew I would believe the result, but that's only because I know you're a damn good craftsman and artist. Good frickin' work!
hahahaha, thank you so much you made my morning.
Wow. Just wow. You have the “maker gene” full bore. Plus the tools and experience to turn out masterworks.
That’s really good if you have all those tools; machines; even that packaging! When you’ve only got a hammer; couple of screws and nails; you won’t get very far! I see all these great things being made; but not a chance I could make them! Just saying ......
All you need is a lathe. I also have a friend who uses a grinder and cut off disc to make bowls.
I love that some people come up with great ideas and solutions when they least expect 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Have you done a gummy bear casting? Or rather, a faux gummy bear casting. I saw someone cast them in resin before and it was a sticky mess. My idea is to get some of those gummy bear silicone molds and whenever you have a little bit of excess resin you just pour it into a bear. After a while, when you’re have enough bears you can pile them I to a container and just fill the rest of the space with clear resin. Because the bears are NOT made of sugar, this should work out great.
Wow! Fantastic idea. Thank you.
You can buy gummy bear molds on Amazon, could you cast the gummy bears in resin in different colors, and then cast it into clear? That would be super cool!
Sounds like a real cool idea
@@reginasoules2837 I’m starting to think you guys have tapped into camera system in the shop.
You are extremely gifted, That bowl is STUNNINGLY STUNNING! I LOVE that bowl! Congratulations!!
Thank you so much 😀
you should probably add a 'do not eat' warning label to some of these creations cause DANG that looks good
😂😂😂
I really want to see the "bird's nest" of resin you're standing in after the first lathing :)
Or even and old used birds nest out of a tree mixed with resin
