By the time you factor in the cost of materials, (wood, resin , finishing products, etc), never mind the time, these artists are working for peanuts. I'm glad to just have the opportunity to watch the effort it takes to produce these works of art. Thank you.

Glad you enjoyed it!
Very Nice Well Done
I love this piece. This type of wood with a black and gold flake epoxy would be so pretty!

@@CASWoodcraft I was thinking transparent with gold flecks myself. Show off all the figure and irregular surfaces of interest. Hmm. I've got some weird little knots I've been saving...
Very nice. I don’t do many epoxy bowls. But when I do people love them.
Holy crap! That's really stunning.
the manzanita pairs so well with the blue resin, it’s really a match made in heaven. and the level of gloss you were able to achieve with the finish brings the colors alive.

Very nice piece. Just curious as to why you leave the tail stock in? Stabilization? I've never tried this before.
@CASWoodcraft
Ай бұрын
Yeah, it’s a fairly big piece and I had a lot invested in it, so keeping the tail stock in for as long as possible just provided a little extra security
I love the resin color, and the contrast between resin and wood, but I do wish you had cut the outside diameter down to what your finished inside diameter was to expose more of the burl. I feel making the piece just that little bit smaller would have pushed it to the next level. Have the resin accent the wood, instead of the wood accenting the burl. That aside I still think it's a good shape and nice project. I'm wish I had time and access to a woodshop to learn these skills for myself.

Well, now you got me wondering… when I was first starting out in woodturning, I watched several guys turn this style of bowl and call it a pedestal bowl…but maybe they were wrong?

This is a lovely piece at the expense of epoxy waste.

Why don't you remove the resin threads as you go?

Nice work but that is not a bowl, it's a pot!
Too much resin and not enough exposed wood
What a waste of a large burl

I don’t see a pedestal on this “pedestal “ bowl. It’s pretty, but there is too much of this color blue epoxy on too many projects on YT. 👍🏼

Many woodturners use the term “pedestal” for any bowl where the base flares out.

Agreed! The use of epoxy in general is over done Most bowls come out looking like something from a hippy crafts fair Still incredibly skilful work, just a bit Rapouche

you may be right. lots of guys making bowls with a flare out in the bottom call them pedestal bowls. what are the technical requirements for something to be classified as a pedestal bowl?
