I know absolutely nothing about wood turning, but I find it fascinating that you can turn what most people would consider "junk" wood into works of art. I also love listening to you work through what you're going to do and then if it doesn't work out the way you thought, you just turn it into something else that looks fabulous. You are a true artist!
13:50 I love hearing your thought process - particularly: "What am I gonna do?" "I DON'T KNOW!!!" And then you make the right call! You really got it right this time!! You made another right decision with the foot - it was too wide originally and the "bead" made it perfect!!
Just breathtaking Jim. That hypershift is really singing in this one. Great work as always. Thank you for sharing a little bit of your world with us every week.❤
I am impressed with every single piece you do, Jim. I like most of the pieces that you do. Some of your projects I really really love. And THEN there are the ones that I am absolutely so head-over heels GAGA for that they make me want to find a magic money tree, grab handfuls of cash, shove them all in a bag, run to your shop all the way from Utah, grab the piece, hand you the bag, and RUN!! This is one of them!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍 It makes me think of a peacock feather. It is DIVINE!!!! I worked for a monument company for years and we stocked polished granite vases for our clients. I loved the graceful shape of the smallest ones we carried and even designed a few to have custom-made by our vendors. They were shaped very much like this vase. This brought back some pleasant memories of working with beautiful stone. Wow. Wow. And Wow!
Jim I love the opening to your videos. That river and snow says two things to me, one fishing and second deer hunting. Your turnings are amazing. Thank you for sharing. Jerry D.
That Hyper shift is amazing in the blue laguna and the cherry burl is fantastic and yes that island is awesome to. Have a wonderful and blessed weekend and week be blessed until the next one God Bless
I really appreciate your voiceover because it is so educational. It makes me want to find a workshop space where I can go and learn to do wood turning.
Your observation that there's a lot going on in today's piece is a serious understatement! The combination of the cherry burl and the blue laguna/hyper-shift resin is breathtaking! Kudos to you for another gorgeous work of art!
This is GORGEOUS!!! The hypershift makes it look like waves in the ocean, and crashing against the shores of all the islands...definitely one of your best!
Jim, I agree with you, definitely in the top 5. Designer Epoxy seems to perform very well week after week. Thanks again for sharing your experience and knowledge with us!
Jim, Fantastic change from firewood reject to a beautiful resin/burl vase. Your channel is the weekly highlight of my RU-vid experience. Thank you. Take care.
