    I watch every video but I never comment. I figured you have given me so much enjoyment over the last 2 years that the least I could do was to comment and thank you. You make wonderful videos. I love how contientious and detailed you are and also how positive you are. You are just a breath of fresh air every week. Not to mention that you do do great work. Thanks again and best wishes from about 3 hours north of you.

    I love a deep grained wood bowl,but a burl with a gloss resin finish takes a piece to a whole new level. Both of these bowls are just beautiful.

    Your burl island bowls are magnificent! Who would have thought that those two lumps of wood destined for the firewood heap were keepers of secret continents and worlds of beauty! Excellent job, Jim!

    Two very beautiful bowls! The blue one is particularly striking, a real “stop you in your tracks to stand & stare” bowl. Thanks Jim, your work (as always) is awesome. Annie, Cornwall, UK🙂🌸

    Oh, I really love this bowls. The red one is my favorite, this gleaming in the wood matches the pearly sheen in the resin. Burl Islands are really so great, in every piece of art that you do. And I really hope to have a lathe sometime to do something like that as well!
    You are a master of your art, and I am learning a lot from your videos. Thank you for your work, and that you share it with us!

    Love the pearl swirls in the resin. Beautiful work as always. I remember the other bowls from previous videos, they are still gorgeous. I like all the different kinds, resin, natural inlay, and the pure wood, they are all beautiful.

  • @roncravens5805
    @roncravens5805 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I could not agree with you more. Epoxy opens up so many doors for turning garbage wood into, what I feel ,as art. We have very little control over what the pigments do, but I am sure you will agree what they do on their own is awesome. Thanks for your videos!

  • @mikewalz4633
