  • Today I am making a simple elegant box from spalted walnut. I will be testing out some new carbide tools, a new epoxy resin, and a new finish. This was the perfect piece to test out some new techniques on. It was a fun small piece that I will keep in my shop to store my wedding ring, while I am "turning" wood into sawdust. Thank you very much to Mr. Tomasic for letting me borrow his design in this video ( link to his video below with step by step instructions for making this piece)
    And thank you to Lets Resin for providing the deep pour epoxy resin that was used in this video.

    Am enjoying your pods so far. Great imagination, patience & skill. Look forward to the next one. Thanx for sharing.

    Haha Love It, your old guy character sounds like so many comments I've had in the past, don't you just love keyboard warriors 🤣. Also while I'm here can I put my hand up and vote for a video on wood stabilisation please, something I have never tried but would love to. All the best, Mike
    Also I found the best way to keep the Lets Resin colours separate is to let them sit for 80 mins first before mixing.

      Hahaha. Between you and me. Most those were the negative comments I’ve gotten in the past. My passive aggressive way of replying to them. Thanks for watching. Wish you the best of luck in the future. Think I remember you are moving shops? Hope it all “turns” out for the best. And thanks for the tip about keeping the colors separate. Will be trying that one out soon!

    That is a beautiful piece, and a fantastic finish. And that was a great choice for the color on the resin. I have a set of the full-size simple woodturning carbide tools plus traditional wood turning tools. I enjoy using the carbide tools they come in handing for certain things, like super hard woods. . I have also watched some of Tomislavs videos on wood turning. I enjoy his work. I have pretty much learned to turn from watching RUclips .

    Thanks for sharing your expertise. I was lucky enough to get aset of carbide tools by Robert Sorby called Turnmaster. They have a unique setting for turning flat and with a simple adjustment lock at 45 degrees. It's taking me a while to get used to them but they're impressive. I also only use scrap wood It's a great feeling of self righteousness 😅. I'm lucky enough to have access to an architectural restoration woodshop. Oak and sapele are the main offcuts. Enjoy your woodturning and thanks for the grumpy git. Have you been spying on me?

    • @squareandlevel
      @squareandlevel  6 месяцев назад +1

      I usually just use raw linseed oil during the wet sanding process and buff with a beeswax linseed oil mix for the final coat. Still working it out. I’ll probably make a video on the process once I get it refined and am happy with the results.

    Sweet...! Love the colors & look. Waterlox can be a good finish. I use it but it doesn't seem to give the perfect glass like finish I want. Inside vases and bowls it's fine. I also discovered StopLossBags, they keep your liquid finishes from gelling up or skinning over.. I've had my Waterlox in one for over a year and it's still good as new.

    You should make some Goban bowls, in pairs of course. I would pay 400 ish dollars for something that badass. If you dont know Go is a game more ancient than chess and is played with white and black stones and traditionally these stones are kept in bowls called go-ke.
    What you made in this video would turn out oustanding show piece Go bowls that I know I would pay handsomely for. Good job sir!

    Really enjoyed your video. It was entertaining and informative. The lidded bowl came out looking really good with the colours you chose. I'm not colour blind myself but have friends that are. They explained it to me, and your explanation was so good. I have enjoyed your videos that i have watched to date and wish you well with your channel. Thank you so much for sharing with us. May I suggest you watch (if you haven't already) Jim Sprague at Sprague wood turning. He has done some awesome work and is very educational. Looking forward to your future work. Cheers Bruce

      Thank you so much! I have been subscribed to Mr.Sprague for a while now and is definitely one of the people that inspired me to try to do this in the first place. I actually am hoping to try out one of his designs in the near future. I need to get his ok first though. I have a bunch of seed pod on my property and he did a video on using those a while back. Could be fun. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great day!
