When that bowl jumped off, I jumped and said "Nooo...". I was so happy that it turned out to only have one little scuff mark. It turned out gorgeous. 🥰
Like so many, my heart skipped a beat and I yelled NOOOO. Well, you had me at that. So happy to see that the bowl survived and it came out so beautiful.
I'm so glad that you show all the mistakes that happen when working with resins and using the jaws. I've had several pieces that exploded when coming off the jaws that were not salvageable. A beautiful piece of work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, these things can happen to all of us and I want to show the full journey I'm on the good and the bad, we can all learn from both, all the best, Mike
Just watched this 5 months late but definitely worth it. Sir you definitely have a flair for the dramatic and I always enjoy watching you work. The bowl turned out beautifully despite the accident please never stop what you're doing 🙏
Oh my! My heart dropped when the bowl came loose and went flying!😢 I am so glad it stayed in one piece! What a wonderful job showcasing the beauty of that burl! The resin looks great and adds to the charm of the piece❤
Thanks so much Mary, my heart stopped as well when it came clattering off. All good now and ready to do it all again with something else 😂, all the best and take care, Mike
To see the bowl go flying at that late stage I really felt for you. So glad to see all ended up well for you.Brilliant piece of work keep up with the videos.
I actually screamed out "oh no"! 😢 I invisioned the worst. I was so unbelievably happy for you when the bowl wasn't damaged except for one teeny, tiny little battle scar.❤ It's a Beautiful piece ❤
Oh my gosh!! It's beautiful! When it was chipping on the back, I thought it wasn't going to work at all; given the title. I love that it lets the light through.
Great save! I have burst into tears on more than one occasion after having one of mine self destruct at the finish line. Was a cherry wine glass for my wife.. had it at the buffer and just got a catch.. it shattered like fine crystal... your story had a much happier ending... thank you for not hiding the flaws, and trials but sharing it with us like a buddy sitting down in the shop! Cheers!
Glad you appreciated the journey Anthony, such a shame about your wife's wine glass, it's never nice to loose something on the hone straight. I never try and hide issues, there is no point, if I have a problem or make a mistake I want people to learn from it. Life is not perfect. All the best, Mike
@@MikeHolton even though there was some heart stopping times, the journey is almost as fun as the enjoyment of the amazing pieces that you see an bring out for us to enjoy!🤩🤩
Mike, my eyes are still wet with tears for you; firstly sharing your pain, and then your joy! I sat down at the laptop for a bit of relaxation, your video popped up; great I thought, 30 minutes with Mike is just what I need right now, and then ... wow, what a rollercoaster that was! You are a star Sir; thank you for sharing so much of your self with us .. and what a great bowl to show for it!!
Thanks David, it started out as a 45 minute video but I managed to get it down for everyone's sake. Like you said it was a bit of a rollercoaster, initially I had hoped to have had that project all wrapped up in 24 hours, somethings things do not go to plan 😀
With the resin it still looked great, really fantastic to keep with it... I'm very happy to see how many videos I've missed. It is a strange relaxation, but it works. To me it is art unfolding in a strange manner.
Thanks Maria, the wood did have a few issues but I know it would be worth it, had I known all that would happen I think I would still have had a go, I learned a lot. All the best, Mike
Now that was an "edge of the seat" video..!! I first had the thought there may not be enough wood after the inclusions and dust were sorted.. Then "is the resin going to work? Is it the best choice of colour?" And just as we'd settled and there was seemingly nothing that could go pear shaped... It went pear shaped!! Lovely piece in the end 🎉 Definitely one to keep as a talking point 😂 .
Hi Jaxx, that bowl fought me every step of the way right to the end. I nearly cried when it flew off, the noise it made I was sure it would be broken but I got lucky. Thanks for watching, all the best, Mike
Wow, that was a roller coaster ride! The middle bit where the black plastic was sticking everywhere compared to the finished project is a good reminder that art tends to have an ugly stage. You just have to keep going and eventually it will be beautiful! I forget that sometimes and abandon projects halfway through, so this was a good reminder to keep on keeping on. Also I audibly gasped when it went flying at the end there. I don't think my heart could have taken it if I was in that room!
You are so right about plowing on. When I started I found it hard to finish a brown, I would always make a mistake or something that stopped me. But one day I made the decision to finish no matter what and I learned a lot on how to fix mistakes and get better at avoiding them. All the best, Mike 🙂
I dont think you were the only one who’s heart skiped a beat. Beautiful wood, I really like wood and the smell of it. When our children was small we lived in a wooded area and my ex had to go to the forest to cut lumber for heating up the house. The smell was just amasing
Oh my god, I nearly died with shock when the bowl was thrown off the jaws. Tho not a woodworker I am a modeller and my heart sank thinking of all the hours and effort put in creating that piece. but when you bought it back into view again I gave a big sigh of relief. Well done, a beautiful piece. Congratulations.
@@MikeHolton Hi Mike, I started quite young with a model of a spitfire (a plastic kit) and as I got older started building balsa gliders. The most disappointing time was when building a Minimoa a 4ft scale model, took me about two months to build freehand from a set of plans. Anyway I covered it with tissue and doped it (showing my age now) I remember I had built it with a de-thermaliser in the tail activated with a slow fuse (cord soaked in saltpetre). I lived in Yorkshire at the time and finally plucked up the courage to take it to the sand dunes and give it the first flight, nice gentle onshore breeze, put a small amount of rudder to make it return to me and then set the de-thermaliser. I gently pushed it into the wind and watched it rise into the air and slowly lift up into the air. As it moved away from me it headed out over the sands and continued to rise. First big mistake, the tide was in. Oh crap! I’d wasn’t turning. It flew perfectly straight into wind and slowly flew out to sea I watched helplessly as it made a perfectly good landing on the waves about half a mile out only to be smashed up by the first breaking wave. I car still feel the disappointment after all the hard work I had put in building covering and doping the model. I now build flying wings with radio control and like the summer evenings just flying them in lazy circles with the gulls over the cliffs near home. I have 5 wings in various stages of construction and sizes and like to experiment with the scratch building, some work some don’t much like your wood turning on the lathe though your skills are far above mine. All the best for the future.
@@Reh8111 Hi Terence, thanks so much for getting back to me. All sounds amazing and I feel your pain for the loss of your Minimoa, that sounds like something that would happen to me. I remember having to use dope on a couple of planes I built as a kid. Both my parents are from Yorkshire (Sheffield) and I love taking trips down the coast to Whitby and further down. So many happy memories
Oh My God Mike - I had been holding my breath through this one, right from the very beginning. I thought at one point, maybe it was going to separate from the sacrificial stock you glued to the base, so when you got through that phase, I relaxed a little bit and thought you were home safe. When it leapt off the lathe toward the very end of the video, I nearly fell off my seat! I'm so glad it didn't get destroyed mate. It turned out really well in the end - and I do appreciate that you share all your trials and adventures, as well as your creative process (with all of of us watching from home). One of the best turners on YT.
Well, you certainly proved that this video is " just for entertainment"!!!In the best tradition of Steven King, you told in the title what would happen, disaster did happen - over and over again. So many times I thought you had THE heartbreaking event referred to in the title that I wasn't ready and was utterly surprised at the last final and greatest heartbreak. You're a master of story telling as well as turning. Thanks for the show.
Thanks Gerard, I would have loved for this to have had a different title like 'an utter success or 'a perfect turning' but instead it was just another normal day at the office 😀. All the best, Mike
Oh my! I have seen other turners have bowls fly off and it is heartbreaking. I am SO glad that it did nit shatter or chip :) PHEW! Thank you again or amazing and heartfelt content, and a truly beauty of a bowl.
Your welcome Dee and thanks so much for your endless support, you have seen me go through a fair bit over the months but this one was a bit of an epic journey. Hopefully next time it will be all smooth sailing. All the best, Mike
I've just discovered your channel a few days ago and it's absolutely amazing. A lot of wood turning channels can show amazing works of creativity but at the same time come across as slightly dry and mechanical. With your videos having live commentary they really stand out as we get to hear your creative and technical journey. Keep up the good work!
That burl has to be cursed. I think my heart skipped a beat seeing this beautiful bowl go flying. Great way to save that gorgeous piece of wood!!! Well done!
Be still my heart! You have away the plot by the title, and I got more anxious with every minute.😊😮😢😅, beautiful. Thanks for sharing the entire journey!
When that bowl jumped off, I jumped and said "Nooo...". I was so happy that it turned out to only have one little scuff mark. It turned out gorgeous. 🥰
Haha I was heartbroken when it came off lol 😀
My heart skipped a beat when it slipped out of the jaws
Haha so did mine
Wow.
😀 Indeed
Like so many, my heart skipped a beat and I yelled NOOOO. Well, you had me at that. So happy to see that the bowl survived and it came out so beautiful.
Sorry, I could not resist that bit at the end lol 😀
I'm so glad that you show all the mistakes that happen when working with resins and using the jaws. I've had several pieces that exploded when coming off the jaws that were not salvageable. A beautiful piece of work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, these things can happen to all of us and I want to show the full journey I'm on the good and the bad, we can all learn from both, all the best, Mike
My hear sank! So glad it survived. It's a staggeringly beautiful piece.
Thanks so much, my heart sank as well! All the best, Mike
I’m so glad that your bowl wasn’t destroyed. And, am pleased that you used resin without added color. The wood didn’t want it.
Me too, thanks for watching, All the best, Mike 😀
I was crossing my fingers hoping the heartbreaking turn wasn't a total disaster but you got there in the end. Just beautiful ❤️😊
Thanks Leone 😀
Just watched this 5 months late but definitely worth it. Sir you definitely have a flair for the dramatic and I always enjoy watching you work. The bowl turned out beautifully despite the accident please never stop what you're doing 🙏
Thanks so much Troy, I love what I do and try my best to keep it interesting and fun. All the best, Mike
Oh my! My heart dropped when the bowl came loose and went flying!😢
I am so glad it stayed in one piece! What a wonderful job showcasing the beauty of that burl! The resin looks great and adds to the charm of the piece❤
Thanks so much Mary, my heart stopped as well when it came clattering off. All good now and ready to do it all again with something else 😂, all the best and take care, Mike
Outstanding job saving that bowl, Mr Holton 👏 I'm impressed.
😳 that was unexpected.
Ha 😅 I walked right into that. I was thinking that if it had broken you could repair it with resin and mockup on the inside. Great job.
Like ×900
Haha thanks Archie 😀
Beautiful piece of wood. My heart sank when it flew off of the lathe.
That made two of us, still all's well that ends well.
When you just stood there, my heart would’ve been my throat because I thought I had broken. I’m sure glad it didn’t! Turned out beautiful
Thanks Lynda, it was an emotional ride!
So much drama and beauty in one relatively small piece! Well done.
Hi Polly, yeah you could say that, someone mentioned that the wood might be cursed lol 😂
That's a great looking bowl, my heart almost stopped when it came off at the end.
You and me both Mark! 😂
I'm not the only one who has airborne pieces!!
Nope, not just you Mike, it happens to us all 😀
😮 My heart stopped too and I felt so sad as I saw the bowl shoot off. Thank you for finishing and I’m glad you shared the journey!
It gave me quite a jump that one 😀, all the best, Mike
Wow Mike, my heart nearly stopped when the bowl flew off. I could just imagine pieces lying on the floor. I'm glad their was a small amount of damage.
You and me both, my heart sank 😀
That turned into a very handsome bowl. Bravo!
Thanks! 😀
To see the bowl go flying at that late stage I really felt for you. So glad to see all ended up well for you.Brilliant piece of work keep up with the videos.
You and me both Baz, I was gutted, I dare not retrieve it, fearing the worst lol
I actually screamed out "oh no"! 😢 I invisioned the worst. I was so unbelievably happy for you when the bowl wasn't damaged except for one teeny, tiny little battle scar.❤ It's a Beautiful piece ❤
Thanks Bonita, my heart sank when it happened, I dare not retrieve it fearing the worse 😀
You tease at the end there! My heart stopped. The bowl was worth it. I love it.
Haha, sorry about that one, I could not resist 😀. Have a great weekend, Mike
Oh my gosh!! It's beautiful! When it was chipping on the back, I thought it wasn't going to work at all; given the title. I love that it lets the light through.
Thank you so much Lisa 😀
Very nice result even with the unscheduled flight. Elm full of surprises .
Thanks Darren, it was certainly a little unscheduled 😂
Phew, thank goodness. I stopped breathing for a second. Nice piece
Hi Fred, I know what you mean, it was a bit of a shock! All the best, Mike
Great save! I have burst into tears on more than one occasion after having one of mine self destruct at the finish line. Was a cherry wine glass for my wife.. had it at the buffer and just got a catch.. it shattered like fine crystal... your story had a much happier ending... thank you for not hiding the flaws, and trials but sharing it with us like a buddy sitting down in the shop! Cheers!
Glad you appreciated the journey Anthony, such a shame about your wife's wine glass, it's never nice to loose something on the hone straight. I never try and hide issues, there is no point, if I have a problem or make a mistake I want people to learn from it. Life is not perfect. All the best, Mike
Lovely bowl, beautiful wood, great ending
Thanks Stephen, I got real lucky at the end 😁
I was properly gutted when that happened. What a beautiful piece….great video and workmanship.
You and me both! So glad when it was ok, All the best, Mike 😀
UPS, a flighing bowl. Shock. I am happy you are not hurt and rescued it with a very nice result.
Thanks, apart from a mild heart attack all was good 😀
Thanks for showing that you are human after all. And thank God a happy ending. Beautiful salvage, love every minute
Haha I am very human, I never hide my mistakes or problems, I try to keep it as real as possible 😀
Wowza, very nice save, darn near jumped out of my seat
Haha, a few people have mentioned doing similar 😂
Loved the video as we watched the roller coaster of creating such a magnificent bowl. Smashing piece of turning. Thank you.
Thanks Andrew, it really was quite a journey!!
Damn Mike!! My eyeballs almost popped out when that bowl popped!! 😮 through all the ups an downs, it still was an is soo gorgeous!!! Great job sir!!
Thanks Rob, that was quite a journey! 😀 All the best, Mike
@@MikeHolton even though there was some heart stopping times, the journey is almost as fun as the enjoyment of the amazing pieces that you see an bring out for us to enjoy!🤩🤩
Mike, my eyes are still wet with tears for you; firstly sharing your pain, and then your joy! I sat down at the laptop for a bit of relaxation, your video popped up; great I thought, 30 minutes with Mike is just what I need right now, and then ... wow, what a rollercoaster that was! You are a star Sir; thank you for sharing so much of your self with us .. and what a great bowl to show for it!!

That was quite a shock! Glad it survived!
Tell me about it! my hear has just about calmed down now 😀
Well saved goalie!! Aye that was a journey indeed but alls well that ends well. Good for you for sticking with it. Slainge.
Thanks so much my friend. I do all I can to see everything through to the end, even if the end is just throwing it in the bin. 😂
Thanks for sharing the high and lows of woodturning. Certainly underlines the need for safety wear and caution.
You bet Stephen, always safety first 😀
With the resin it still looked great, really fantastic to keep with it... I'm very happy to see how many videos I've missed. It is a strange relaxation, but it works. To me it is art unfolding in a strange manner.
Thanks so much, I have a lot of viewers who watch for no other reason than they find it relaxing 😀
Oh no....Oh no !!!!!!!! Thank God it didn't break. My heart nearly stopped!!!!
Oops sorry about that lol 😀
Great bowl , but you gave me. Heart attack 😮
Haha, sorry about that, I'll try harder next time 😂
This it's such kind of gorgeous. What a shock when it decided to fly. Luckily you could save it. We'll done!😎
Thanks Bruno, it gave my heart a workout when it left I know that lol 😀
What a vid! My heart lept right out of my chest when that bowl took off 😮 the way it did. Beautiful ending.
Haha thanks Donna, sorry about the heart attack, mine did the same if it any concelation 😀
My heart stop breathing wenn i look at that piece of art
Thanks so much 🙏
OMG - my heart when that beautiful bowl went flying!!!!
I'm amazed with what you were able to create with that piece of amazing intense wood!!!
Thanks Maria, the wood did have a few issues but I know it would be worth it, had I known all that would happen I think I would still have had a go, I learned a lot. All the best, Mike
Yes! A great time for resin! Good call, Mike!
Thanks 👍 not a real fan of resin but it had to be done 😀
Nice bowl I teared up myself when it went flying away
It was just a little bit emotional!! So glad when I saw it was ok 😃
Now that was an "edge of the seat" video..!!

Then "is the resin going to work? Is it the best choice of colour?"

Stunning chunk of wood great save from the fire well done love it
Thanks Colin 😃
Thanks!
Thanks so much Garry, this is very generous and only my second ever donation. Really appreciate it, all the best, MIke
Wow I think my heart stopped with you - beautiful piece glad it survived
Haha thanks, I'm glad as well
I’m so happy you could save it!
Me too!! I was heartbroken for a second there!
Thanks 👍 Definitely Elm,one of my favourite woods.
Mine too! Just wish the bugs did not like it so much 😀
Burl is always so lovely! Great choice on the pearl look. Glad it survived it's trip off the lathe. lol
Haha me too, many thanks, Mike 😃
Beautiful result, stunning 😊stunning 😊
Thanks so much Alda 😊

Beautiful bowl. My heart stopped when it flew off. I am so glad it survived.
You and me both Jean, it tool a while to recover from that one.
I think my heart stopped when the bowl came flying off 😢
BUT the outcome is so beautiful 😍
Mine did as well, so glad it was not too badly damaged 😀
Flipping Heck…when she grew wings and flew, the gasp I made woke the dogs up…Nnnoooooo. Great recovery, and a stunning piece of wood. 😱😱😱😃😃😃
Thanks Fiona, please apologise to your dogs from me 😂. This one had quite a bit of drama. All the best, Mike
Turned out great.
Haha thanks, pun intended? 😀
So glad that when it took flight, it wasn't ruined! Beautiful piece.
Thanks Virginia, I was devastated! Luckily it was all ok
It is a beautiful bowl
Thanks so much
Very beautiful, 😊
Thank you so much 😊
Turned out very nice. You picked a great colour for the resin
Thank you very much!
You certainly got me at the end, coincidentally, I watched this on the morning of April 1st.
Nice piece at the end.
Haha sorry about that 🤣
I would not have imagined such a beautiful bowl would result from that beginning. Well done.
Thanks so much Sherrill 😀

Always heartbreaking when a piece comes loose. Glad the damage was no worse and you weren't hurt
Thanks Eric, normally I laugh at these things but after all that work it was a bit of a shock.
Another great turn Mike nicely done as always glad the piece survived its short flight across the workshop,
Kind regards
From Will 👍 😊
Thanks so much Willie, I was pretty relieved to see it was ok lol

4000 miles away, my heart jumped also.
Haha sorry about that 😃
That burl has to be cursed. I think my heart skipped a beat seeing this beautiful bowl go flying. Great way to save that gorgeous piece of wood!!! Well done!
Thanks William, I think you may be right but there is none left now and we are all in one piece 😂
Looking very good. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Jude, glad we got there in the end 😀
i've never tried resin , after watching this im inspired to give it a go , another fantastic bowl 👍
Thanks Jon, I thought I may have put people off for life 😂
There are many skilled turners on RUclips.....you have a uniquely creative twist to your projects.
Thanks, I try not to do just normal things, like is better when you experiment 😁
That’s a Cinderella bowl for sure great job Mike.
Thanks so much 🙏
You really had me there expecting to see you take out three pieces of your hard work. What a result though and nice cliffhanger😂
Glad you enjoyed it 🤣. I could not help myself to put that bit at the end.
Awesome brother
Thanks my friend ☺️
What a great video. You had me. When it came off the lathe. Glad it was okay.😅
haha thanks 😀
Stunning work ❤
Thank you! 😊
I knew from the title something was going to happen, but my heart still jumped ! Quite an epic journey right enough 😮
Sorry about that, it was certainly a journey, my heart sank when it flew off at the end!
MAN you made me (and then my cats) jump!
I felt that "I think I'm gonna cry"...
It came out gorgeous though😍
Thanks my friend, so glad it was not badly damaged 😀
Be still my heart! You have away the plot by the title, and I got more anxious with every minute.😊😮😢😅, beautiful. Thanks for sharing the entire journey!
Your welcome Rory, this one was emotional to say the least! 😅
Damm, I wasn't expecting that.
Haha neither was I 😃
Beautiful work! Since you asked, I think a transparent resin that was tinted glass green would look beautiful in these kinds of situations.
Thanks and I think you are right! 😀
Well done goodjob
Thanks! 😃
Good save
Thanks :D
