So let's talk about misusing resin, because that's exactly what I demonstrated in this video. Deep pours of this size require active cooling to avoid thermal cracking, and I really had no idea what I was getting into with this one other than that I fully anticipated that the resin would crack. I was not prepared for just how much cracking would take place, and I think that alone made the project much more difficult. I was also warned by a SuperClear representative that their resin is known to chip in woodturning applications, but I think the chip-out was exacerbated by all the extra voids left from the thermal cracking. In the end, the results speak for themselves, and I think all that extra work was worth it for a truly unique poisonous cauldron! Thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoyed me experimenting with a new (to me) fog machine!
I'm not the first to coat burls in contrast-color epoxy before casting in resin, but this was my first attempt to emphasize the natural edges of the burl using glow pigments in epoxy. I also attempted to use glow pigments in the casting resin, but as expected, the glow powder drifts to the bottom of the mold and most of the pigment was lost. This was also the heaviest blank I have ever turned, coming close to 80 lbs. Fortunately, there's a nice core blank for a future project!

Maaan! It's YOUR channel! If YOU want to put slow-mo segments into YOUR videos then just put them in. If slow-mo offends one person enough to write in and gripe about it then let that one person go and watch the millions and millions of other videos out there on KZread. YOU just make YOUR videos the way YOU want to and we'll keep watching them. BTW, this project turned out just beautiful. Keep up the fantastic work and God bless!
the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products.
That bowl is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Simply magnificent.
Placing the glue with the green color reminds me of the pots that were repaired by gold- which made them even more beautiful. 💚
My son (8 yo) and I watch your videos all the time, usually before bed. He loves them so much and enjoys that they are a “mystery” until the end as to what you are making… he says he really loved the glow in the dark creation. Thank you!
Your cinematography alone is outstanding, no wonder your works are out of this world.
You are not only so incredibly gifted, but then you edit perfectly and show off all the intricacies of the piece. So beautiful!
Love how you can take a huge chunk of burl, cut it up, glue it up, add epoxy and colors and make it something incredibly unique. The vision you have is awesome and so much fun to watch you coax it out of the wood. Thank you for sharing!
I’m a professional woodworker I can build anything from wood but turning is a different story. This stuff I always find fascinating and entertaining. Keep up the great work
This is a Masterpiece...! I can't imagine how much off camera work went into this.. Mind boggling..
As a power-carver and fellow woodworker, all I can say is that I am incredibly impressed with your work in general, and your work here specifically. In power-carving, if I screw up I simply keep going because you never know how mistakes become advantageous later. Not that it matters, but I am proud of you for sticking with this one and hanging in there till the end instead of giving up and moving on. I literally just put my lathe together Sunday, and haven’t even used it yet. Partly because I want to watch more videos before hand, and partly out of confusion of where to start. Watching you gives me something to strive towards. I am not interested in selling, but I AM interested in making beautiful things for my wife, and maybe a few family members, if they’re lucky, 😂. Thank you very much for allowing us to view your process. Sincerely, John
I don't know what's more impressive - the finished piece or your incredible tooling collection! Your content just keeps getting better & this one really blew me away....
David Adamsen, this is one of the most insanely cool pieces of art I’ve seen! 🤤
Dude, I’m blown away! Start to finish, this was an amazing piece!
Dear David, you're the greatest! My son, 47, has been watching your videos, me too, & you are an absolute gifted, blessed master! We watch on utube at night, so we can't click on it, so I'm doing that now. Thank-you so very much. ❤
I've been binge-watching all these wood-turning videos on different KZread channels for the last few days. I just find them satisfying to watch. No narration, no video graphics, just hands creating masterpieces.
OMG I literally had to make myself close my gaping jaw! The removal of the inside guts of your bowl blew my mind! Now onto the bowl itself. Astonishing! Unbelievable! You put a lot of yourself into this project! I love it!! I wonder what the final weight was.
I was skeptical when this started, but this is exceptional.
That has to be so gratifying after putting in so much work. It's probably the most beautiful woodworking I've seen. I really appreciated that you used the wood that you cut off in the beginning. Manzanita is so beautiful and I don't think it's used enough in woodworking. It grows all over Northern CA, where I'm from. Hope you got a pretty penny for it. And slow-mo is awesome and the cinematography, especially at the end, is incredible. I suspect you might be a perfectionist, lol.
I can't believe the attention to detail and the sheer beauty of this piece, I was watching at pure awe. Amazing work.
