To all that is out there Mr Jim's pieces are more beautiful in person I was one of the winners he sent me a beautiful bowl today for free at his expense I don't know who does that but it's absolutely lovely you chose the perfect Bowl cuz my favorite color is purple I can't even express the words of gratitude and thankfulness thank you so much many blessings to you and your family
I’m glad you love it! Thanks 😊
I think that I’ve watched this twice. I love when you take a challenge!
Thanks again!
Personally, I like the variety of projects. I haven't turned anything in years and thoroughly enjoy watching. This is gorgeous.
Thank you very much!
Simply running out of adequate terms to praise this work of art.
Absolutely AWESOME!!!!
Wow, thank you!
You may not have gotten what you wanted but it's a happy soul who wants what they got. Well done.
Thanks 😊
Designer Epoxy is my favourite epoxy and you are my favourite turner of all time.
Wow! Thanks for watching!
I love watching you turn, and seeing your finished projects - I don’t really care what you make, it’s all beautiful. You should make what puts the most $ in your pocket so that we all can keep watching you for years to come. That being said, watching you try new stuff is always fun!
On another note, you don’t have to keep justifying your prices - something is worth what someone is willing to pay. But I also understand about pricing your work and having people say “What?!” I have been a knitter/crocheter/“yarn artist” for years - more than I will admit to. I’ve tried selling my work (mainly bc I love doing it so much) but people are always surprised at the cost. Machine made afghans may be $20-$30, but for me, the yarn alone is typically at least $50, and that’s not even for designer, specialty yarns. Then it takes hours and hours to knit an afghan. To make it worth it, I have to charge at least $200, and people just don’t see it or understand it. So I make what I love and gift and donate it all. It’s hard - I’d hate for artists/crafts-folk/etc to fade away, but they will if people don’t value the time and the art.
It’s always a bit of a fight to get what your really deserved for hand made items! Thanks for watching
I 100% agree!!!!! I made jewelry for years and the cost of supplies, even wholesale, is a big expense and then it could take me 4-8 hours a day for about 3-8 days, depending on what I am making. People expect to pay $2 to $10! It’s insulting!
No, I didn’t contract with the children & adults of China to make my jewelry. It is all made by us Designers, makers, Painters, Crafters and our time and the love and passion we put into our projects. 75%+ of people just don’t get it. Look at Jim and the cost of the Designer Epoxy alone is a huge expense. Heck, I will use just a small amount of Designer Epoxy to make some beautiful mica colored, dried flowers earrings or pendants, coasters or the trays with the two handles on top. The Designer Epoxy is my greatest expense. Then I need to take a break from Designer Epoxy projects and work on other crafting as I run out of room! 😂 We, no matter what our craft is, spend a lot of time and money on our pieces and we need to price them accordingly.
Designer Epoxy
@@BeautifulDesignWithKaren Exactly!!!
This piece is great . The more I watch the more I try new thing I try. I haven't been turning very long
I'm 77 so trying to teach an old dog new trick. Having fun. You do some great work.
Thank you very much!
Well if this is a ‘failure”, Jim, I commit to watching every trial and error you do. Looking forward to version 3.0 or 4.0…every hit and “miss”…! This was simply spectacular.
Thanks 😊
We don't have a preference. Every piece is unique and your footage is excellent.
Thank you very much!
I love it..... you are a true artist Jim. I love every thing you make
Thanks 😊
"Not this again" had me laughing from the start. Now to watch the rest of the video. Brings back memories of "Save the babies!"
Lol, yup, “save the babies! “ thanks for watching!
That is absolutely incredible Jim! I tell ya, instead of sitting at a computer screen every day, I'd love to be able to spend my time making things like what you make. I know, LOT of work and motivation needed, etc. Day will come at some point 😎. You're a huge inspiration, we all thank you for your fantastic videos!
Wow, thanks!
Fortunately for us wood turning also makes a great hobby :D
Beautiful! Love watching and dreaming. Another hobby I would love to try.
I totally agree, Jim makes me want to try this so much. If it weren’t for the expense, I’d be in! But you inspire my creativity even if it’s not in turning Jim, thanks!! I’ll work on something artsy and creative, and watch you make firewood look amazing!!!
I watch your videos with the intent of developing an ability to do quality resin work. Thank you for your in-depth, continuous explaining.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
So I love the artistic style of the hollow form, but I love the functionality of the bowls also! 💛💜💙 Absolutely beautiful
Thanks 😊
Another great project Jim. Renaissance Man.
Thanks for watching
That is indeed a great looking piece - the swirls are fantastic! I find it amazing that the different colors don't muddy up the blues.
Thank you very much!
Designer epoxy
Simply amazing Jim
Thanks for watching!
I love how dedicated you are to realizing the concept. Looking forward to your next try!💖
Thanks 😊
I like watching whatever you create. 😊
Thanks so much! Much appreciated!
Pretty neat. My theory is you're going to have to let all the colors sit for about 14 hours then combine and pattern them just before it hardens. I think you're getting too much thermal convection boiling the colors together and making them muddy.
Yup! I think you’ve nailed. Thanks for watching
And, perhaps, a bit more of a delicate touch with a straight tube as you inject the different colors, with fewer, but larger injection points. You swirl at the end anyhow, so you don't need 20 injection locations. It seems pretty easy to see the excessive mixing and movement of the epoxy as you inject. Also, mix the different colors at different times based on volume so they end up in the same stage of their curing processes at injection time. Just brainstorming...
Looks super cool, regardless.
Brent has it right - there's a really short window of opportunity to get those colors combined without mixing together fully. I think I might try it on a smaller scale this weekend- see what happens.
WOW. That resin is absolutely stunning, despite the failure to separate.
My 2 cents, for what its worth, mix your pots of resin and add color towards 6pm then the following morning towars 8 am start checking the viscosity. Once it's thicker and closer to that honey stage combine swirl and don't touch it at all until it's fully cured. I've used deep cast quite a bit but never this new thinner version, you might need to let it sit closer to 16 hrs before combining.
Good luck with version 3.0
I think this is the loveliest piece yet !! 💖
Thanks 😊
I love watching anything you do tbh .. I’ve never had the opportunity to do anything like the beautiful work that you do .. it’s not quite Peacock but it’s definitely beautiful .. ❤
Thanks 😊
I was hospitalized and missed the video. Watched it as soon as I felt well enough. Very cool piece.
Well that’s no good! Thanks for watching and get well soon!
Stunning even if it wasn’t what you were hoping for. Like others have said… wait a lot longer before combining the colours, less injection sites, use a hard straight tube to inject straight up and down, the soft tube is mixing it too much, and stop playing with it😉… I’m a painter, the more I muck around with it the more muddled the colours… good luck❤️
Yes, your probably right, got to stop playing with it to see how it’s curing. Thanks for watching
I like to paint and play with colors. I found early on usually the less you mix the better the colors
Bowls are my favorite, but watching this resin process is fascinating.
Thanks for watching
speaking as a fiber crafter who might never actually do "hard" crafts, i enjoy watching them made anyway! i can see where the experimentation should eventually yield the optimal time to mix each size batch so they can all be ready together after they've thickened sufficiently... in the meantime, the resultant blue-greys with the vague hints of gold or green are still really pretty!
Thanks for watching
Oh my goodness that is amazing. As a new Turner of 69 years young I still can't believe the things you guys can do. Your resin work just blows me away and it also encouraged me to try for myself, and if I may say with some not bad results.
You also mentioned what we prefer to see you do on these videos, well as I am new I tend to turn bowls most of the time, it seems the best thing to do at this stage, but love to see you turning hollow forms. I think it helps someone like me understand different techniques. Also something you said during this video helped me, and that was sometimes when you look at the wood your turning, the shape you had in your mind just doesn't look quite right and you need to let the wood speak to you in a way. That's happened to me many times but usually it turns out OK.
Thank you so much for your videos and I look forward to seeing many more. Looking forward to watching your third attempt. 👍
Starting with bowls is natural, I don’t think I even did a hollow form for the first ten years in my turning career. I started as a functional turner, then progressed to inlays, then to larger more complicated work. Thanks for watching and safe turning!
I anticipate every video, you're amazing Jim! I was expecting this to look brownish. As a pro cake decorator, we have to make custom colors and purple and gold or yellow mixed makes brown. I am not a resin expert at all, but maybe do more green and gold? Or start out with green and gold, then add the blue and purple? Anyway, the finial looks great and the whole piece looks awesome! 💯💯💯
Ya just might be right. Thanks for watching
I wondered if the red tint in the purple mixed with the green to grey-down the blue when it all mixed (Crayola and Bob Ross art here, not professional). Still absolutely beautiful in the swirls and gradations. Hope you figure out the separations, and enjoy the trip getting there, too.
I have not seen you turn anything that I do not like! You are an inspiration to me!!!!
Thank you very much!
Just stunning Jim. The Designer Epoxy really looks GREAT mixed together.
Thanks John!
It absolutely is beautiful with smokey water seaspray in the clouds. Kickinbutt in your odyssey of your vision.
Thank you Jim
It really is! Lol. Thanks
Beautiful, can hardly wait for version 3
Thanks for watching
Awww the happy accident...they are always the best one...an this one provided lots of crazy features.. lol. Beautiful!!
Thanks for watching!
Designer epoxy. Absolutely stunning piece Jim. It’s great to have someone like you go through the pain of figuring out how to achieve the special look you are after, and better yet be willing to share that knowledge. While I love this work, I must say I still prefer bowls over hollow forms. Love them all!
Thanks for watching!
The hollow forms are my personal favorites. The wood/resin combo comes out so stunning and they make such a unique conversation piece. Keep up those beautiful "experiments".
Thank you very much
I just love watching whatever you make it's always beautiful
Thank you very much!
The peacock might be missing a few of his intended colors but that is Absolutely Stunning!!!
Looking forward to 3.0 🙂
Thanks, lol.
I do LOVE your creations. I've always wanted to learn how to do wood turning. My dad did wood turning but he passed before he could teach me. So now I watch videos to learn. I really appreciate your voice overs, helps me learn.
FYI - From someone who does epoxy casting: Deep cast epoxy takes a LONG time to set. Colours will blend when put in all together at the beginning. You will need to wait for the base colour to almost set before you add/inject the other colours. I've had this problem too when casting resin projects.
The best way to do this might be to cast the base colour the let that almost set till it's really really thick & sticky (not liquid) then add the next colour then wait till that is really sticky then inject the other colours.
It's a matter of timing. All trial an error unfortunately.
However, this casting is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! It is a STUNNING colour. The swirling is just beautiful. Of course I'm partial to blues, but this piece is GORGEOUS!
Timing certainly seems to be the key. Thanks for watching!
I must say that this is just AWESOME !!! 👌
Thanks for watching
Jim it is just awesome and stunningly beautiful, breathtakingly spectacular and magnificent.
Thanks for watching
Catching up with early peacock projects. This is a stunner! Amazing color!
Thank you! 😊
I like both bowls and hollow forms. I enjoy watching your creativity. whatever you want to do.
Great. Thanks for watching
I'm a sponge. I love seeing all the various types of turnings. The maple finial was the right call to go with the burl base. Very pretty.
Thanks for watching
I enjoy listening to your thought process while you’re working. Great learning experience.
I appreciate that! Thanks
It's so BEAUTIFUL! BLUE! OMG, it's so beautiful!
Of course I'm very partial to blue, but it's so VERY beautiful!
Your designer epoxy creations are WONDERFUL!
Thank you very much!
You'll get the peacock design next time. It's a beautiful piece. Designer Epoxy. Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching
I love this stunning beautiful piece. The blue is beautiful with the wood. The master strikes again. Job very well done. Thank you again for another great video. Idaho Falls, Idaho, USA
Thanks 😊
Well Jim I can honestly say it turned out simply fantastic, the colours were spectacular, I did have to smile when there was no gold or purple showed up it is truly a mystery. Bud you will crack the mystery. well done.
We’ll get it eventually, lol. Thanks for watching
The shimmery blue is gorgeous!!!!
Totally! Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous piece. Can’t wait till you nail the peacock piece.
Me too. Thanks for watching!
Probably the best looking failure I've ever seen. The swirls are absolutely mesmerizing.
As for bowls vs. hollow forms... yes, please. Either way I'm happy to watch.
Great! Thanks for watching
My daughter understands all too well the fact of people not understanding how much time and effort goes into her cross stitch. The black is so awesome. Designer Epoxy
Thanks so much! That is time consuming for sure!
Blue is my favorite color, so I think this is great. Keep up the good work on chasing the peacock hollow form. Designer Epoxy
Thanks 😊
Love where you are going with the peacock idea. I don't have preference for bowl or hollow form. What I enjoy seeing is the original and artistic effects applied to what you are making. Keep up the surprises.
Thanks for watching!
@@SpragueWoodturning Hi Jim I love your work I have been watching you for about a year and I love your work your work is awesome keep them coming
This hollow form is really Beautiful. Love the blues
Thanks for watching
I agree with others here commenting, everything you do is absolutely gorgeous! For me, if you have more wood then resin, bowls and platers show off the grain and natural beauty of the wood where the resin enhances the wood. Urns and hollow forms are fantastic way to show off the complexity and storms of the resin! In my opinion!
Got it. Thanks for watching
Oh man, this is beautiful!!!! Absolutely love your work!!! WOW!!
Thank you so much!
That swirl makes it very interesting. Very nice.
Agreed! Thanks for watching
Beautiful. I like blue no matter what. Shine looks good
Me too! Thanks
Lost for words. So beautiful 😊
Thank you very much
I love all of you work, bowls, hollow forms, everything. Just Keep them coming. 😊
Thanks for watching
Absolutely beautiful and I love the hollow forms and the bowls
Thanks!
What a beautiful colour ,looks like the sky at night,awesome
Agreed, thanks for watching!
My preference would be the bowls! I love watching you cut one from another ☺️
Got it. Thanks for watching
My 82yo mother loves your channel. She asked me to tell you that her favourites are the bowls and vases using burls and resin.
Got it! Thanks for watching!
I think the pearl swirl throughout this piece is beautiful. I know it didn't turn out according to plan, but definitely not wasted time.
Thanks for watching
I like the format of you talking through it as you go, it makes me more aware of what's happening, another great item of course, dare i say piece of art.
Thank you very much
Personally I like watching both be made. Bowls and hollow forms. Maybe even something else that you make. The diversity keeps it fresh and interesting.
Cool, thanks!
Wow! Yet another “peacock”. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks for watching
So unbelievabley beautiful. Without the finial it looks like a giant drawer pull. Love it
Thank you very much
It’s a beauty Jim.
Thanks
Beautiful. I love the blue with that wood.
Me too, thanks!
Another winner Jim! Designer epoxy
Thanks for watching
It's not what you wanted but it's still cool. I like watching what ever you do.
Thanks for watching
Awesome, I really like the way the colors swirled together. Designer epoxy.

The swirls on this are so lovely I would not have optimised for shape either!
Thanks 😊
The colors are stunningly beautiful. Great work! 🙌
Thanks for watching
You may not see all of the colors, but that blue is absolutely beautiful.❤
Thank you!
Love the designs that the blue made but I wish that some of the green and yellow colors had come out but still beautiful, beautiful 😊
Thank you very much
I personally prefer the functional pieces, but also like the more artistic ones. Variety is the spice of life. Just keep doing what you do and I’ll keep watching.
Designer Epoxy
Great! Thanks for watching!
all I can say is wow that's awesome
Thank you very much!
I love the pearlescent design.

This Peacock Hollow may not be up to your own personal standard, but to me it is just stunning. I love the colour swirls on the top and around. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much!
I Love your work. I prefer to watch you do bowls.
