    Fantastically beautiful: The craftsmanship, the artistry, the colours, the wood grain, the ingenious addition of the mirror/light feature for that illusion of depth and ‘portal’-esque structure, the bravery of all of that turning (I honestly held my breath just watching a lot of the video! To think I used to panic about potential strike when turning basic bowls/candlesticks/crochet hooks - Nothing near as complex and delicate as your work! I still remember that fear, though!)……….
    ….makes me miss my workshop so much!
    I had to give it up around covid and couldn’t afford to set up again after.
    It’s lovely to be able to watch your videos and remember the joys (and stresses!😂) of craft woodwork and gain pleasure in the amazing work you do.

      I was really quite startled. I was 100% not expecting such visible emotion. Quite disturbing to me when I'm not expecting that kind of content incoming.
      "Clamping it got tricky" does nothing to inform that an emotional, loud outburst is incoming.... In a genre of video that is typically very methodical and chill to watch. I might expect that kind of outburst on a video called "Maker loses it while clamping wood for epic custom wormhole table"....
