I've seen you make a lot of beautiful stuff, David. I do believe this one tops them all. And perhaps it's just my own prejudice, but I love the fact that no epoxy was used in the making of this masterpiece. Superb!
I'm amazed that you can look at raw piece of wood and see what you will turn it into be before you even start to work on it. A true gift. Your videos are very entertaining. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Once again you have shown your creativity and love in being a “woodie” I have been watching your videos for a while now, and each just blows my mind. Mother Nature is proud of you ten fold.
if you squint your eyes at the end, it looks like massive ethereal rings orbiting some great celestial needle that's remaining stationary. very incredible piece
I would give this to my future wife to house her ring, “ just like this wood I want our bond to grow old and blossom into something desirable despite the age” this is what I gather from this video if it were my possession to obtain. You stir emotion with your videos sir without a word “you have a strong positive spirit about you” thank you……..!
Myrtle is definitely one of my favorites. Once I saw both pieces together, I saw an orchid. Now I can’t unsee it. Stunning, gorgeous piece of work. I absolutely love it.
Truly breathtaking, David! Watching you think out, adjust, create, and put on finishing touches to your creations is startling! That you could somehow see the transformation in your mind is beyond me. How does that happen? I’m guessing it’s years of experience plus an assortment of successes and failures along the way. It’s a family gift that’s been passed on for generations…..right? Thank you for sharing. It’s given me a bit of new perspective of the world around me…. especially after watching the “olive disaster.” I’m sure the price tag on these creations is exorbitant, so I’ll just keep on with your videos, of which I’ve only seen two so far! 😊
I was holding my breath through most of this because another piece like this flew apart. I'm intrigued trying to guess how you'll release the concept in your mind through your tools on the wood. I'm never disappointed. It makes me miss my sculpting days. Thank you!
You sir are an inspiration, I have started searching for classes, courses, instructional videos, and anything else I can find on this. I have the desire to learn this skill if it takes me 100 years to do it! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
Again, another truly beautiful piece of art. Your imagination captivates my sense of Soul. Keep doing what you are doing; you are a Master of your craft ❣️
It took me a while to get it bit the shape was that like a Hershey Kiss candy. Love the contrast colors of the wood. That dark rich color is so eye alluring. Very stunning piece that God has blessed your creative mind with.
That is outstanding, David! Just every aspect of it, from design to finish. I've got my first lidded vessel near the top of my list, but not quite this elaborate. Thank you for giving us high targets to aim for.
Does anyone else watch these to go to sleep? I’ve been watching wood turning videos for the past couple months to fall asleep. I needed something new added to my ASMR, Bob Ross and rain sounds 😂
I had never heard of myrtle burr before. You made it not just to shine, and look beautiful: You made it stunning, gorgeous, and very desirable, all at the same time! Well done!
Just recently found your channel and have watched a handful of vids. I don't have the words to explain how absolutely beautiful your pieces are. I am in awe of your skill, craftsmanship, and artistry. Most of your pieces make me weep and I thank you for that. Love and blessings to you.
I'm GOING OUT on a LIMB to O"PINE" that this remnants of "EVER"GREEN SHRUBBERY NEVER looked so MAGNIFICENT. Your CRAFTSMANSHIP, David, RENEWED this DEPRIVED WORK of NATURE to an "EVER"LASTING PIECE with an ATTRACTION undeniable to MORTAL EXISTENCE.
Watching you perform such great works of art with only a lathe and some wood chisels is so much fun. I can never guess the shape of your finials until you're done, although I always try. Thanks David. Your work is of great inspiration to me.
Love that this is so relaxing while also being interesting and churning out cool ass art. Love these videos. Wood turning, metal forging and electronic restoration are the holy trinity of comfy watching.
Dang Dave. Just lathe out a giant spike ball why don't ya. 😄 You're incredible though, really. Scary good. That dainty onion bulb. Wow 🤯 All Beautiful 😉🤜🤛
I get so happy every time you put out a new movie, were a bit afraid you had stopped a while back. You are such an amazing artist, not only as a craftsman but in the way you shoot and cut your movies. Thanks to you i bought my first lathe during the pandemic and started turning. You are my greatest inspiration! Keep up the great work Adam. Wish you all the best! Stig, Norway.
Hello! New subscriber here from the Caribbean!!!! Your work is stunning and an amazing demonstration of how true artists see the world so much differently to others. Please keep blessing us with your craftsmanship and attention to detail!😊
I'm very impressed with the shape and I'll have to agree that it really is reminiscent of a Hershey kiss, David! The grain is exquisite and you really made the most of it, I think. The little feet are a nice touch. I also noticed that you've gone back to using pyrography. Great job, as always, David!
Perfect choice of wood, beautiful veins, masterly execution and wonderful design! Great creativity. It is a privilege to be able to see how you transform something simple into something so fantastic. 👍🌹🌹
What a joy it has been to watch your work for the last 2 years. The woodwork, as always, is fantastic. Your attention to detail following the shape and grain is exquisite. Your photography for this piece really took my breath away. The angles, the closeups of the tip of the tool, the depth of field, the sharpness. It wasn't until it was over that I realized your camera and the tool tip took turns shaping the wood. You're a master :). Awesome! Thanks Adam!
That's the kind of project that is terrifying to do. Such a beautiful piece of wood that would be so easy to ruin with one slip. Fortunately you turned this one out beautifully.
I add a WOW to that too! You did highlight the graceful curve very well on the burl and with the finial. The colour contrast too! Dare I say it... this is an organic and sensual piece of art. 🙏
I've seen you make a lot of beautiful stuff, David. I do believe this one tops them all. And perhaps it's just my own prejudice, but I love the fact that no epoxy was used in the making of this masterpiece. Superb!
Thanks! I’m trying to make some resin-free stuff now and then.
Gorgeous wood. Beautifully and skillfully made.
I'm amazed that you can look at raw piece of wood and see what you will turn it into be before you even start to work on it. A true gift. Your videos are very entertaining. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

Very cool comment. Thanks!!
I'm speechless. Thank you for sharing! You truly have a talent.
Thanks Melissa!
Absolutely beautiful wood grain. The finial placed inside is different, I like it.
I loved it up until the finial, which I thought looked contrived, extraneous and misplaced and ruined the piece. My opinion only.
Just in case no one mentions it, your camera work is just as good as your lathe skills! I loved watching both!!!
Thanks so much!!
I am definitely getting the feel of your older work with this one. It reminds me of why I fell in love with your work to begin with. Beautiful!
Thank you so much, Bethany!
I would give this to my future wife to house her ring, “ just like this wood I want our bond to grow old and blossom into something desirable despite the age” this is what I gather from this video if it were my possession to obtain. You stir emotion with your videos sir without a word “you have a strong positive spirit about you” thank you……..!
From down under, as always, magnificent.
Myrtle is definitely one of my favorites.
Once I saw both pieces together, I saw an orchid. Now I can’t unsee it.
Stunning, gorgeous piece of work. I absolutely love it.
Your turnings are like a good picture show. You never know how the ending will be but you know it will amaze you. Inspirational as always.
I knew looking at that burl in the intro that this would be something amazing and it is! You never fail to create beauty.
Thank you, Dave!

the “olive disaster.”
I’m sure the price tag on these creations is exorbitant, so I’ll just keep on with your videos, of which I’ve only seen two so far! 😊
As always, in awe of what you see in a lump of wood like you started with.
It absolutely does look like a Hershey's Kiss! Your wife is obviously a very smart and fortunate woman.
Wow I could never afford these beautiful pieces but what an awe inspiring event to be here watching thank you so much💕💕
I was holding my breath through most of this because another piece like this flew apart. I'm intrigued trying to guess how you'll release the concept in your mind through your tools on the wood. I'm never disappointed. It makes me miss my sculpting days. Thank you!
Thank you, James!
James, instead of missing your sculpting days, why not relive them? Time to rekindle the flames
under that fire inside your heart. sawdustbob. r2t2
So graceful in form. A beautiful work of art.
Absolutely Gorgeous David. The two woods you picked are perfect together.
Beautiful burl. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, Carl!
...amazing...I hope someday to have half the vision you possess in seeing a work of art in a doorstop...
Bring out the grain both pieces was magnificent. Thanks for sharing your turning skill and your pieces.
Your ability to bring the woods beauty to the forefront is excellent. Great job!!!
Quite lovely, something for a display cabinet. Mine's full. Well done, could watch for hours but only so many in my day, must attend to my work.
You sir are an inspiration, I have started searching for classes, courses, instructional videos, and anything else I can find on this. I have the desire to learn this skill if it takes me 100 years to do it! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
Thank you, Shane! Happy turning! Always learning!
Beautiful work David. Bowl and finial are
lovely.
Well sir you continue to amaze. What a beautiful combination of woods.
Oh my goodness how beautiful!!! And that finial is the stunning cherry on top. Well done Mr. Adamsen.
Thank you, Dawn!
Stunning piece great combination of timber too
Dear artist, my wife and I admire your art. I hope you are able to adequately and pay for your talent. Greetings from Slovaks from Serbia.
Wow - with every video I watch, my need to have a try working with a lather becomes even stronger!!
Stunning work, as always David
Absolutely fascinating! The combination of form and timbers is a wonderful synchronicity. Thank you so very much for sharing!
Again, another truly beautiful piece of art. Your imagination captivates my sense of Soul. Keep doing what you are doing; you are a Master of your craft ❣️
Thank you, Barbara!
It took me a while to get it bit the shape was that like a Hershey Kiss candy. Love the contrast colors of the wood. That dark rich color is so eye alluring. Very stunning piece that God has blessed your creative mind with.
You are a real artist, its amazing how beautiful a "piece of wood" can be. Thank you for sharing your ART. !!!😊
I'm absolutely blown away by your design of this bowl. Stunning quiet literally 👌🏽
That is outstanding, David! Just every aspect of it, from design to finish. I've got my first lidded vessel near the top of my list, but not quite this elaborate. Thank you for giving us high targets to aim for.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it, Jay!
A beautiful piece beautifully turned. Well done David 👏
With regard to wood, you have got to be one of the most talented artists I’ve ever seen. This is gorgeous. I just thought I was a woodworker.
Such an interesting piece to take the time to admire. Lovely
Does anyone else watch these to go to sleep? I’ve been watching wood turning videos for the past couple months to fall asleep. I needed something new added to my ASMR, Bob Ross and rain sounds 😂
I know a lot of your incredible pieces: wonderful each one. What about a woodturning cube? That would be the crown of your work!!!
Фантастически чудесное видео!! Искренне благодарен за доставленное удовольствие видеть РАБОТУ МАСТЕРА!! УСПЕХА!!
That woodturning of that myrtle burl is absolutely gorgeous work and well worth the several hours of finish work you did.
Thank you for a cool video!
Thank you, Mark!
I had never heard of myrtle burr before. You made it not just to shine, and look beautiful: You made it stunning, gorgeous, and very desirable, all at the same time! Well done!

Thank you once again for your beautiful art David!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks Will!
OH❣❣ MY❣❣ WORD❣❣ This s absolutely exquisite ❣❣❣ Your skill at the lathe with the various tools you used is mind-blowing!!!

Another beautiful creation. It reminds me of a flower opening up to show the gorgeous center! Thank you!
Thanks Ellis!
Beautifully stunning and all the rest of the best adjectives ever, I love your myrtle kiss masterpiece.
Thank you, Deborah!
I get so happy every time you put out a new movie, were a bit afraid you had stopped a while back.

Thanks to you i bought my first lathe during the pandemic and started turning.

Thank you! Yes, I am trying to be a bit more consistent with my uploads. Cheers and thanks for watching!
You truly have God-given talent brother!!
That myrtle burl is huge, and beautiful. great find.
Pure alchemy. And your collie dog is STUNNING.
I would be more than happy if someone gifted me this. I could admire it day and night.😍
It's even more beautiful then it was before you started. It's like a bloomed into a flower.
Thank you, Eddie!
It's like a drop of water 💧
Simply Stunning 🥰
This feels like the slow motion images of a drop of water hitting a body of water and making an amazing splash. Very interesting conceptually
Hello! New subscriber here from the Caribbean!!!! Your work is stunning and an amazing demonstration of how true artists see the world so much differently to others. Please keep blessing us with your craftsmanship and attention to detail!😊
I'm hooked. Who knew watching wood turn on a lathe could be mesmerizing?
That's so beautiful! Well done!
Thank you!
I have wanted to see a myrtle turned! absolutely beautiful-
Amazing! I don’t get tire of watching your creative genius….the beauty is beyond compare
Thank you!
I seem to remember you mentioning that you hoped you could do this wood justice. You did. *applauding!*
Thank you, LayLee!
I'm very impressed with the shape and I'll have to agree that it really is reminiscent of a Hershey kiss, David! The grain is exquisite and you really made the most of it, I think. The little feet are a nice touch. I also noticed that you've gone back to using pyrography. Great job, as always, David!
Thank you so much, Lucy! It's my first time trying the 3 foot carving. Definitely easier than it seems!
Perfect choice of wood, beautiful veins, masterly execution and wonderful design! Great creativity. It is a privilege to be able to see how you transform something simple into something so fantastic. 👍🌹🌹
I love to see the beauty that you discover inside the wood.
That is a fantastic piece of art along with some great lathe work.
Such imagination!!! Your closing music perfectly matches the beauty of your creation.
Thanks Wayne!
Great creative idea and outstanding Myrtle!!
What more could anyone say, absolutely beautiful.
Also the wood that you have access to is unbelievable
I love watching a true craftsman do their stuff
Wow David that is truly beautiful, you are blessed with an amazing gift bless you 😊
BEAUTIFUL!
Relativly simple and elegant design. One of my favorites so far.
Thank you!!
David eres un artista te sigo en los videos..
David, I love the natural colour of this wood!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!! Keep well and safe.
What a joy it has been to watch your work for the last 2 years. The woodwork, as always, is fantastic. Your attention to detail following the shape and grain is exquisite.

Always look forward to your turns! Beautiful works on this!
Thank you!!
I can’t believe your artistic talent. Wow.
This is one of the most beautiful pieces I’ve ever seen. And that finial! You’re my Hero, Mr. Adamsen!
Cheers Danella! I appreciate you watching!
I think your concept for this piece was fantastic and beautifully executed.
What a creative mind you have and extraordinary skills. Beautiful to watch, amazing piece of art
Thank you for sharing 😉 👍
That's the kind of project that is terrifying to do. Such a beautiful piece of wood that would be so easy to ruin with one slip. Fortunately you turned this one out beautifully.
That is absolutely beautiful. I love the combination. What truly unique piece.
I'm so glad I was recommended your videos. Everything you make is absolutely beautiful.
Ohh my goodness. Extraordinary! Beautiful, very unique!
Amazing price of work, honestly looks like the whole grail of all Hershey Kisses
Thanks Joshua!
I just love the shapes and the forms you give to the wood..... inspired...! !!❤️
I add a WOW to that too! You did highlight the graceful curve very well on the burl and with the finial. The colour contrast too! Dare I say it... this is an organic and sensual piece of art. 🙏
Thanks, Lynn!
