Maaan! It's YOUR channel! If YOU want to put slow-mo segments into YOUR videos then just put them in. If slow-mo offends one person enough to write in and gripe about it then let that one person go and watch the millions and millions of other videos out there on RUclips. YOU just make YOUR videos the way YOU want to and we'll keep watching them. BTW, this project turned out just beautiful. Keep up the fantastic work and God bless!
I was actually just ordering some pigments to fix a broken coffee cup with clear JB Weld. Was going to go with the classic Gold but now I'm thinking one of the glow pigments might be cooler!
Love how you can take a huge chunk of burl, cut it up, glue it up, add epoxy and colors and make it something incredibly unique. The vision you have is awesome and so much fun to watch you coax it out of the wood. Thank you for sharing!
My son (8 yo) and I watch your videos all the time, usually before bed. He loves them so much and enjoys that they are a “mystery” until the end as to what you are making… he says he really loved the glow in the dark creation. Thank you!
@@DavidAdamsen I would like to ask, what the name of that tool and attachment is, where you cut that large section (blank) out of the middle of the bowl. THAT is a really cool piece of tooling, and I am glad that someone makes such things. Saves you time, and gives you a smaller blank to turn into something, from the same piece. Nice!!
the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
I’m a professional woodworker I can build anything from wood but turning is a different story. This stuff I always find fascinating and entertaining. Keep up the great work
@@DavidAdamsen You are amazing at what you do with a chunk of wood, this makes the 3rd video I've watched & I have to say your 1 of a kind in my book, ❤
Jaw dropping video friend bug u gave probably heard it before. I didn’t know though that there are these super duper poxy resins that are as hard as glass WOW! 👍😀
That is excellent work you’re incredible gifted you know how to miss mix your colors and you know exactly what you’re doing so you’re incredible gifted you do excellent work you keep up the good work you have my boat⭐️👍🫶🙏❤️
Определенно талантливый человек.. Ваза очень красивая, особенно с зелёным свечением❤❤❤ и мне нравится, что вы делаете красивые вещи из неказистого куска древесины. Интересно, где вы берете материал, в лесу или покупаете..
As a power-carver and fellow woodworker, all I can say is that I am incredibly impressed with your work in general, and your work here specifically. In power-carving, if I screw up I simply keep going because you never know how mistakes become advantageous later. Not that it matters, but I am proud of you for sticking with this one and hanging in there till the end instead of giving up and moving on. I literally just put my lathe together Sunday, and haven’t even used it yet. Partly because I want to watch more videos before hand, and partly out of confusion of where to start. Watching you gives me something to strive towards. I am not interested in selling, but I AM interested in making beautiful things for my wife, and maybe a few family members, if they’re lucky, 😂. Thank you very much for allowing us to view your process. Sincerely, John
Thanks John! I appreciate your comment! I really try not to give up, and you’re absolutely right, the mistakes and mishaps are opportunities for something better. You are definitely on the right track with watching RUclips to get started in woodturning. That’s how I learned and there are so many wonderful and talented craftsmen and artists on this platform. There’s always more to learn, but I really hope you enjoy getting into it yourself!
David Adamsen, this is one of the most insanely cool pieces of art I’ve seen! 🤤 … If I had the money for a piece like this, I’d buy it on the spot … must have been a small fortune in epoxy alone, the carefree way you apply the colours and the precision of your work is a testament to a true master of his craft, talent and creativity… the finished product is absolutely astonishing!
Thanks Wilbur, yes quite a bit of off-camera work went into this. I probably only filmed a third of the work and then edited down about 8-9 hours of footage down to 17 minutes.
Glad I read through the comments. Those details are most interesting. It would be very cool to know such details about every piece you create. Stunningly beautiful. The work, time & creativity you invest is prodigious...I was curious if you FEEL intensely positive...emotions as you work? I ask because my favourite definition of "High/Fine Art" is, simply, "That which makes those who view it feel INTENSE emotion." Further to that, I believe for emotion to be FELT at that point, the work itself was imbued with emotion during the creative process. Be it a song or a voice making the hair on the nape of my neck stand up...or a dance routine which transports me to a state of awe...or a work of Art...I love beauty and the FEELING I get gazing at a VIDEO*¹ of your finished piece is...indescribable. *As tech invariably REDUCES the emotional resonance of a piece: in that the intensity of emotion FELT BY one who views, say, an image in a video...or a photograph on a screen...or a poster...a high quality limited edition proof...an artist's proof...culminating with the ORIGIONAL...that emotion ratchets up in intensity as the veils of technology are removed. To see your finished work in the "fibre" must be incredible. I hope ~ but doubt ~ you arranged a voice or video call such that you could enjoy your client's reaction when they FIRST saw the result of their commission. I REALLY enjoy seeing (or hearing) the emotional reaction to my work...and the artists i support get a kick out of my reactions.
Dear David, you're the greatest! My son, 47, has been watching your videos, me too, & you are an absolute gifted, blessed master! We watch on utube at night, so we can't click on it, so I'm doing that now. Thank-you so very much. ❤
That has to be so gratifying after putting in so much work. It's probably the most beautiful woodworking I've seen. I really appreciated that you used the wood that you cut off in the beginning. Manzanita is so beautiful and I don't think it's used enough in woodworking. It grows all over Northern CA, where I'm from. Hope you got a pretty penny for it. And slow-mo is awesome and the cinematography, especially at the end, is incredible. I suspect you might be a perfectionist, lol.
I don't know what's more impressive - the finished piece or your incredible tooling collection! Your content just keeps getting better & this one really blew me away....
Would you please make more like this? Where you apply a different/vibrant color or epoxy on the natural edges first. This piece was so awesome, I didn't realize I'd had already watched this the other day until I got halfway. You're awesome, your work inspires me to stay sober so I can one day get into woodworking.
Ugly? You couldn't make ugly if you tried! This is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I am more amazed at each video. You truly are a master at this! And what some don't realize is that every single piece is a one of a kind!!!❤❤❤
I've been binge-watching all these wood-turning videos on different RUclips channels for the last few days. I just find them satisfying to watch. No narration, no video graphics, just hands creating masterpieces.
To start, this piece is breathtaking! So creative! 2nd... the video is like feature film! From the slow-mo to the music it's ART! Anyone who doesn't realize that can get bent! ❤️
OMG I literally had to make myself close my gaping jaw! The removal of the inside guts of your bowl blew my mind! Now onto the bowl itself. Astonishing! Unbelievable! You put a lot of yourself into this project! I love it!! I wonder what the final weight was.
I love the “drama” of slow motion. Considering The Slow Mo Guys have 14.5M subs I’m guessing other people do too. This piece is incredible, the glowing cracks and tinted epoxy are beautiful together. The rootball is gorgeous and all of it combined is absolutely amazing. Thanks so much for sharing all of your hard work, heavy lifting and enormous talent with all of us!
Awwww WOW that looks like a huge rare opal. I love the ultra violet effects. You're such an Exceptional Artist right down to the tiniest details. It's sometimes hard to find words for not only your work,but the filming & presentation. I could watch all your stuff all night long & never get board. Thankyou for making the world a more Beautiful place.
Your work and how you present it in your videos is amazing to say the least. Thank you for making it available to us and to allow us to appreciate the work and skill that goes into the beautiful pieces you create. All respect out to you 🙏
When you started this project, i thought this was going to be the ugliest thing youve ever made but your ingenuity and vision made this a stunning piece of art! Simply amazing! Gorgeous piece, looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I was right there with you. Almost stopped watching, but had to finish to see how it turned out (expecting a garbage can). Turned out amazing. Great work!
So cool that you were able to reincorporate a number of the pieces you had trimmed off ... you have created a stunning piece!! Oh, and since these are YOUR videos, include what you YOU want, and if people don't like it, they can look at something else
Love the slow motion. Haven’t done lathe work since high school and it brought the impact of the rough turning on the hands and arms right back. It’s good to show how physical this is. Also caused some anxiety as I was worried your chisel was going to catch and flip . Our shop room had a huge gauge in the chalkboard across the shop from the lathe stations from a flipped chisel. It was the first lesson in the lathe training!
That is awesome!!! You have out done even yourself nevermind anyone else! I am awed by your skill and creativity and the neverending supply of cool tools and materials!!! This thing under the black light is very impressive.
This is simply glorious! I mean the artistry, craftsmanship, the creativity and resourcefulness... Not to mention the video is stunningly filmed. I know nothing about woodturning, am just a graphic artist but boy, do i appreciate all that I've seen here! Thank you for making such quality content!
So awesome!! AND, you saved the core! I'm so impressed!!!❤ It makes so much sense to save that and make more instead of wasting it in pieces on the floor!🎉🎉 I hope more people follow your example. Your production of this video is so awesome!!
What can I say that hasn’t been said? That is pretty cool. I am always amazed at the new things people are trying on their wood lathes, but this is the best I have seen yet. You even managed to save the center for a small bowl. I love it!
To say this is a beautiful piece of art is just not enough. Amazing workmanship . I really appreciate the time you put into it. It would be worth the money you will get for it. Thank you for sharing.
DAVID!! This being the 2nd video I have viewed, I am 🤯BLOWN AWAY🤯 by YOUR ARTISTIC GIFT as DETAIL is GRAPHICALLY DEMONSTRATED CAPTIVATING my ATTENTION. I have NOT FAST FORWARDED a SECOND THANKS to the ENTERTAINING VALUE coupled with INHERENT TEACHINGS of the CRAFT. THANK YOU as I PURSUE my INDULGENCE in BINGE WATCHING your other VIDEOS with INTENTION to MONETARILY ACQUIRE a MASTERFUL PIECE sure to LURE HISTORICAL ACCLAIM. GREAT WORK with SPECIAL FX!!
This is totally amazing and beautiful!!! I love the slo-mo that lets you see exactly what is happening when it happens. For you to be able to hold your hands steady enough through the voids so that it remains perfect is fascinating. Absolutely beautiful work. Keep it up. ❤
This has got to be one of the cool things I've ever seen. YOU FREAKIN NAILED IT. I kinda wish we could see more of the finished piece at the end, I just couldn't get enough of it lol. Badazz job bro. It almost looked like fossilized amber in some spots, and the neon colors set it off. So freakin awesome, one of the best ones I've seen anyone make yet. I like to see you do a planet/galaxy/universe type piece now lol. I just can't say enough about this one, it definitely deserves more views. I've been a sub for a while, and had to catch up on some of your pieces. It's more fun to binge watch what I've missed lol. Very cool
As I watch your marvelous how-i-did- this-very-complicated-project show, I was continuously amazed by how, just when it seemed impossible for the project NOT to be finished, there was one or more steps to be done, one or more wild products to be used, more complex drills/ shavers/scrapers to be used. I am a mixed media artist, which as you well know is just fancy ass way to say "I may use a button, a piece of millefiore, a fabulously piece of material run through my pasta maker or some crazy thing I find on the sidewalk or the street.. Lots of options. I am amazed & impressed by your work. I learned a lot from watching you. Going to get me some Table Top epoxy. I had a slightly unnerving experience with how hot it gets...BUT thank you so very much and please ignore that person who posted that you should stop your slow motion bits. I love them. Bye for now.
I was impressed to see just how little was wasted from this huge burl, you utilized pretty much all of it. I think this is one of my favourite creations that you've come up with.
Easily one of the wildest things I've ever seen come off a lathe. It has been a pure joy watching your skills grow over the last couple of years. ( I subbed after seeing your yellow birch pedestal bowl. I think you were in the 1K range at the time.) And not just your turning skills, but your videography as well. Although, I have to admit that the slow mo always makes me a bit nervous as well.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Much like the pieces of wood you transform, each of these videos are made with so much attention to detail & care. They are a true joy to watch. Thanks for sharing!
"You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.” - George Bernard Shaw Thank you for sharing your beauty within with us! Happy Christmas !!
Easily my favorite peace of all the projects from all the turners I've watched. The scale, the quantity and variety of techniques, the final presentation, just ridiculous.
Forget that dude who didn’t like slow motion. 🙄 that was as cool as heck. The music went perfect for the design of the artwork you made. So much wrk goes not only in the wood turning but your video and editing. Thank you. Love it. Most beautiful wrk out there.
Breath taking!! You are an amazing artist. How did you learn to do this? Where do you get those alien looking pieces of wood? Your equipment is a work of art and probably costs a fortune!! Good luck to you and I am sure your pieces will be in museums all over the world!
I have to say friend, that is very, very neat. I admit I wasn't sure how that was going to come together when you were painting the wood burl edges, but when it was done it looks fantastic.
Turning something out of nothing. Great work and really beautiful. You have good vision and imagination to see the object before it is made. As a retired machinist, I can appreciate your craftsmanship.
Every time I watch your videos I say to myself this is the most beautiful piece I have ever seen. Then you up your game. WOW! You are an awesome artist!
OMG, if I hadn't watched you create this beautiful bowl from a burl of wood, I'd never believe it! How do you envision what you're going to create? True artistry for sure.❤❤
The video itself was a masterpiece of cinematography and editing! And the background music was perfect. This is probably the most beautiful and intriguing piece of woodturning that I’ve ever seen! Thank you for sharing your awesome talent with us.
I personally love the slow mo .. It gives the content suspense . You keep doing you, and if people don't like it, don't let the door hit them on the way out
OMG again and again every time I look at this I see more and more detail. Woohoo unbelievable David looks bloody outstanding. 🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅.Ernie smith from brisbane Australia
😲😲😲 Wow! That is absolutely stunning!!! Also about the comment where someone said stop with the slow motion. It's your channel. You put what you want. You got a new subscriber here
I just stumbled across your videos this morning and have watched several - they are quite mesmerizing! You seem to have an amazing array of tools and I imagine that they must be quite expensive...if you don't already, I think you should have sponsorship from the tool makers for displaying to viewers how they can be used. Really a unique craft, thanks for sharing!
@02:22. I love your slo-mo footage. It brings another level to the artistry of your work. Besides, it's your channel......film it how it pleases you! There are nearly 300k subscribers who agree with you!
Once again you have turned something ugly into a master work of art. Your editing is really well done. Obviously you cannot show everything that goes into making a piece like this but as fellow turner I truly appreciate all that unseen effort.
Космически прекрасный объект искусства, очень сложный исходный материал, продуманный сценарий и потрясающий монтаж! Маэстро, вы великолепны 😊 Я видела много похожих видео, но ваш ролик самый лучший 💯 Спасибо!
I especially love the organic way you enhance the beauty of the wood. The pieces are always so intriguing! Like Michelangelo, you take away what does not belong, and leave only the art you foresaw. How DO you clean up all the scraps and ribbons.
Just being able to make this is absolutely spectacular. But filming it too!? Man I know how that can 10X more work, but I'm a complete amateur compared to your turning / filming / editing skills! I can tell you must really love what you do! Congrats to the success of your channel. You deserve it!
The cinematography of this little video, theatrics, lighting, and videography you have it going on with that alone but the woodwork is absolutely amazing. I love trees and roots as is but I’ve never seen this kind of work. My dad builds but nothing compare to this. Is this what they teach in shop because I should have take shop! 😅 I would love to be able to do this. It’s so satisfying to watch and hear all the noises. Fantastically beautiful.
Amount of work that went into this piece was mind boggling, I hope you charged well for it!! One of the best, if not the best resin works on a lathe I have ever seen on utube
Awesome!!! I wish I had this level of talent and creativity. Even watching how it’s been made makes me feel so good and enjoy a lot. It was GREAT!!!Thanks for sharing.
As an artist & craftsperson myself, I'm endlessly fascinated & impressed by how you can envision a finished result from your initial materials, and then work through to the remarkable final vision you had in mind? Every episode keeps me constantly guessing right to the end! The impressive range of cool tools you have for getting there is awesome, too!! 😁 (The curved tool for hollowing out the bowl & spiky round attachment for smoothing the base were particular highlights this time, in that respect?)
Hats off to your hard work man... The results are just outstanding... What a finishing... Once in a month video is worth it...I wish I could buy this art but unfortunately I can't 😺👻.... Keep it up bro...💖 from India 🇮🇳
Wow David. Not only do you make turning wood an art, you also make filming about it. An extraordinary video and an extraordinary turned object. Chapeau. Opinion can be divided on the choice of neon colors and their use with epoxy resin, but as always, the beauty of art is in the eye of the beholder. Pollution is the use of so much epoxy anyway. Often, and even a little in this case, I don't understand why you can't leave such an exceptional wood and turn it like this, with all its cracks, holes and flaws. The beauty of the grain and the root wood would have been enough to justify not using plastic. Obviously you have access to such exotic pieces of wood, why don't you try something without this epoxy, just let nature work its magic. I and the oceans and our entire environment would be happy. Many greetings from northern Germany, stay healthy, Schorschi.
Pure wood will always unite nature and art more closely than wood and resin hybrids, but that doesn’t always tickle the fancy of customers. This commission would have been impossible without resin.
This really is spectacular. I know you're going for a Halloween cauldron vibe but under normal light it reminds me of some alien planet with incredible coast lines. Under black light it reminds of a nebula picture, like something we might get from the JWST. Either way, I hope this gets used for more than just trick-or-treat candy because it's too beautiful to keep hidden for the rest of the year!
Wow ! What a craftsman and artist you are. That’s the second one I’ve watched and I’m hooked. It got me thinking about the fact that digital artists, those expert in computer graphics are possibly thought of as at the cutting edge of creating beautiful or unusual images, but seeing your films it shows that the ancient crafts, the timeless crafts such as working with wood are so much more beautiful. The way the natural object changes and evolves in the hands of the craftsman is mesmeric and deeply satisfying at a gut level. That certainly brightened up this rainy Sunday on the West Coast of Scotland 😊
Maaan! It's YOUR channel! If YOU want to put slow-mo segments into YOUR videos then just put them in. If slow-mo offends one person enough to write in and gripe about it then let that one person go and watch the millions and millions of other videos out there on RUclips. YOU just make YOUR videos the way YOU want to and we'll keep watching them. BTW, this project turned out just beautiful. Keep up the fantastic work and God bless!
Amen to that brother
And besides, for one such self-righteous half-wit there's lots of people who LOVE slow-motion explosions. Keep them coming! 😀
Thank you for voicing what I think.
100% agree. The cool thing about you is that you are doing something instead of just watching someone else do something.
I agree with you one hundred percent on this. Good on you for saying it .
That bowl is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Simply magnificent.
Thanks Stephen!
Placing the glue with the green color reminds me of the pots that were repaired by gold- which made them even more beautiful. 💚
Thank you so much

What a lovely ~ insightful compliment!

Your work and how you present it in your videos is amazing to say the least. Thank you for making it available to us and to allow us to appreciate the work and skill that goes into the beautiful pieces you create.
All respect out to you 🙏
Thanks so much!
When you started this project, i thought this was going to be the ugliest thing youve ever made but your ingenuity and vision made this a stunning piece of art! Simply amazing! Gorgeous piece, looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I was right there with you. Almost stopped watching, but had to finish to see how it turned out (expecting a garbage can). Turned out amazing. Great work!
A masterpiece!!
So cool that you were able to reincorporate a number of the pieces you had trimmed off ... you have created a stunning piece!!
Oh, and since these are YOUR videos, include what you YOU want, and if people don't like it, they can look at something else
Love the slow motion. Haven’t done lathe work since high school and it brought the impact of the rough turning on the hands and arms right back. It’s good to show how physical this is. Also caused some anxiety as I was worried your chisel was going to catch and flip . Our shop room had a huge gauge in the chalkboard across the shop from the lathe stations from a flipped chisel. It was the first lesson in the lathe training!
Thanks!!! Yeah, there is always an element of danger in turning.
Your work is....alive. You are the only artist woodturner I watch that I grieve when the video is over. Mesmerizing.
Funny to see you say that, as I always feel the same disappointment when it's over and I know I must wait for the next one.
Watched countless other turnings - NEVER seen one AS BEAUTIFUL AS THIS!!
Thanks very much!
That is awesome!!! You have out done even yourself nevermind anyone else! I am awed by your skill and creativity and the neverending supply of cool tools and materials!!! This thing under the black light is very impressive.
This is simply glorious! I mean the artistry, craftsmanship, the creativity and resourcefulness... Not to mention the video is stunningly filmed. I know nothing about woodturning, am just a graphic artist but boy, do i appreciate all that I've seen here! Thank you for making such quality content!
Thank you, Evee!
You’re the only artist who manages to make glow-in-the-dark look amazing! 😮
Aw, thank you! ❤
I was skeptical when this started, but this is exceptional.
I find your lack of faith…disturbing.
Amazing! To have the vision for a peice and be so intentional with everything needed to complete the piece is pure art.
Thanks very much!
So awesome!! AND, you saved the core! I'm so impressed!!!❤ It makes so much sense to save that and make more instead of wasting it in pieces on the floor!🎉🎉 I hope more people follow your example. Your production of this video is so awesome!!
Thank you so much!
What can I say that hasn’t been said? That is pretty cool. I am always amazed at the new things people are trying on their wood lathes, but this is the best I have seen yet. You even managed to save the center for a small bowl. I love it!
Dude, unbelievable! Your best yet! You aren't a wood carver, you're an artist
To say this is a beautiful piece of art is just not enough. Amazing workmanship . I really appreciate the time you put into it. It would be worth the money you will get for it. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Barbara!
DAVID!! This being the 2nd video I have viewed, I am 🤯BLOWN AWAY🤯 by YOUR ARTISTIC GIFT as DETAIL is GRAPHICALLY DEMONSTRATED CAPTIVATING my ATTENTION. I have NOT FAST FORWARDED a SECOND THANKS to the ENTERTAINING VALUE coupled with INHERENT TEACHINGS of the CRAFT. THANK YOU as I PURSUE my INDULGENCE in BINGE WATCHING your other VIDEOS with INTENTION to MONETARILY ACQUIRE a MASTERFUL PIECE sure to LURE HISTORICAL ACCLAIM.
GREAT WORK with SPECIAL FX!!
This is totally amazing and beautiful!!! I love the slo-mo that lets you see exactly what is happening when it happens. For you to be able to hold your hands steady enough through the voids so that it remains perfect is fascinating. Absolutely beautiful work. Keep it up. ❤
This has got to be one of the cool things I've ever seen. YOU FREAKIN NAILED IT. I kinda wish we could see more of the finished piece at the end, I just couldn't get enough of it lol. Badazz job bro. It almost looked like fossilized amber in some spots, and the neon colors set it off. So freakin awesome, one of the best ones I've seen anyone make yet. I like to see you do a planet/galaxy/universe type piece now lol. I just can't say enough about this one, it definitely deserves more views. I've been a sub for a while, and had to catch up on some of your pieces. It's more fun to binge watch what I've missed lol. Very cool
You're always super turning!! But, this video is most very super turning👏 Thank you for sharing. Getting from Japan 🙇🇯🇵
You’re very kind! Thank you!
Wow! What can I say? You never cease to amaze me. Great turning David!!! Hope you are well!
Thanks so much, John! Same to you!
As I watch your marvelous how-i-did- this-very-complicated-project show, I was continuously amazed by how, just when it seemed impossible for the project NOT to be finished, there was one or more steps to be done, one or more wild products to be used, more complex drills/ shavers/scrapers to be used. I am a mixed media artist, which as you well know is just fancy ass way to say "I may use a button, a piece of millefiore, a fabulously piece of material run through my pasta maker or some crazy thing I find on the sidewalk or the street..
Lots of options. I am amazed & impressed by your work. I learned a lot from watching you. Going to get me some Table Top epoxy. I had a slightly unnerving experience with how hot it gets...BUT thank you so very much and please ignore that person who posted that you should stop your slow motion bits. I love them. Bye for now.
I was impressed to see just how little was wasted from this huge burl, you utilized pretty much all of it. I think this is one of my favourite creations that you've come up with.
Easily one of the wildest things I've ever seen come off a lathe. It has been a pure joy watching your skills grow over the last couple of years. ( I subbed after seeing your yellow birch pedestal bowl. I think you were in the 1K range at the time.) And not just your turning skills, but your videography as well. Although, I have to admit that the slow mo always makes me a bit nervous as well.
what he said ⬆️
Thank you, Dana!
THAT IS JUST FANTASTIC!
You must be making a lot of people very happy with your artwork!! IT'S VERY EXQUISITE.
Once again David you came up with something totally stunning in addition to the excellent cinematography! You are the KING of turning videos!
Cheers Suzette!
The client asked for big and scary. You nailed the big part. That ain't scary, though. That's mother living beautiful!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Much like the pieces of wood you transform, each of these videos are made with so much attention to detail & care. They are a true joy to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much!
I normally dislike resin use, but this, this is so much wow. What a creation.
"You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.” - George Bernard Shaw
Thank you for sharing your beauty within with us! Happy Christmas !!
Thank you!!
Easily my favorite peace of all the projects from all the turners I've watched. The scale, the quantity and variety of techniques, the final presentation, just ridiculous.
This is absolutely the best woodturning video that I have seen yet! The workmanship is to die for! Thank you for posting this masterpiece.
Love the slow motion detail of the very creative pieces you produce. Excellent craftsmanship.
Forget that dude who didn’t like slow motion. 🙄 that was as cool as heck. The music went perfect for the design of the artwork you made. So much wrk goes not only in the wood turning but your video and editing. Thank you. Love it. Most beautiful wrk out there.
Thanks Jodi!
Breath taking!! You are an amazing artist. How did you learn to do this? Where do you get those alien looking pieces of wood? Your equipment is a work of art and probably costs a fortune!! Good luck to you and I am sure your pieces will be in museums all over the world!
Hello again David Adamsen! I really like the slow-motion woodturning, it gives a more graspable view on what is happening to the wood!
I have to say friend, that is very, very neat.
I admit I wasn't sure how that was going to come together when you were painting the wood burl edges, but when it was done it looks fantastic.
Turning something out of nothing. Great work and really beautiful. You have good vision and imagination to see the object before it is made. As a retired machinist, I can appreciate your craftsmanship.
Thank you very much!
Every time I watch your videos I say to myself this is the most beautiful piece I have ever seen. Then you up your game. WOW! You are an awesome artist!
That’s an absolutely amazing piece! Your creativity is astounding. Hats off to you!!
This piece was spectacular, you're an unbelievable artist and visionary. You are like Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel, but with wood! ✌️💚
OMG, if I hadn't watched you create this beautiful bowl from a burl of wood, I'd never believe it! How do you envision what you're going to create? True artistry for sure.❤❤
The video itself was a masterpiece of cinematography and editing! And the background music was perfect. This is probably the most beautiful and intriguing piece of woodturning that I’ve ever seen! Thank you for sharing your awesome talent with us.
Thanks so much Beverly!
I personally love the slow mo .. It gives the content suspense . You keep doing you, and if people don't like it, don't let the door hit them on the way out
OMG again and again every time I look at this I see more and more detail.
Woohoo unbelievable David looks bloody outstanding. 🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅.Ernie smith from brisbane Australia
Thanks Ernie!
😲😲😲 Wow! That is absolutely stunning!!! Also about the comment where someone said stop with the slow motion. It's your channel. You put what you want. You got a new subscriber here
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous! My favorite for sure!! Your patience is amazing and your talent exceeds any expectations by far! Awesome! Bravo!
Thank you so much!
I just stumbled across your videos this morning and have watched several - they are quite mesmerizing!
You seem to have an amazing array of tools and I imagine that they must be quite expensive...if you don't already, I think you should have sponsorship from the tool makers for displaying to viewers how they can be used. Really a unique craft, thanks for sharing!
@02:22. I love your slo-mo footage. It brings another level to the artistry of your work. Besides, it's your channel......film it how it pleases you! There are nearly 300k subscribers who agree with you!
I really like how this one turned out! It is EPIC!!!
Thanks!
The slow-mos are great! It gives us another perspective of your work!
Absolutely the best woodturning video I've watched ever !!!unreal result,👍👍👍
Wow, thank you!
This is fantastic! These are the things I watched my Dad do as a child, on a much smaller basis.Memories. Thank you. You are great
Another masterpiece David. What an imagination you have. Love the glow in the dark resin effect.
Once again you have turned something ugly into a master work of art. Your editing is really well done. Obviously you cannot show everything that goes into making a piece like this but as fellow turner I truly appreciate all that unseen effort.
Космически прекрасный объект искусства, очень сложный исходный материал, продуманный сценарий и потрясающий монтаж!
Маэстро, вы великолепны 😊
Я видела много похожих видео, но ваш ролик самый лучший 💯
Спасибо!
I especially love the organic way you enhance the beauty of the wood. The pieces are always so intriguing! Like Michelangelo, you take away what does not belong, and leave only the art you foresaw. How DO you clean up all the scraps and ribbons.
I been going through a lot and struggling. . My anxiety at high level and bad ptsd. this calmed me. I needed it. Just a thank you! Beautiful work 😍
Your works are beyond my imagination. They are incredibly amazing and... thrilling.
Just being able to make this is absolutely spectacular. But filming it too!? Man I know how that can 10X more work, but I'm a complete amateur compared to your turning / filming / editing skills! I can tell you must really love what you do! Congrats to the success of your channel. You deserve it!
I cannot sufficiently praise this. The piece or the video
BRAVO!!!
Thanks Christian!
The cinematography of this little video, theatrics, lighting, and videography you have it going on with that alone but the woodwork is absolutely amazing. I love trees and roots as is but I’ve never seen this kind of work. My dad builds but nothing compare to this. Is this what they teach in shop because I should have take shop! 😅 I would love to be able to do this. It’s so satisfying to watch and hear all the noises. Fantastically beautiful.
Amount of work that went into this piece was mind boggling, I hope you charged well for it!! One of the best, if not the best resin works on a lathe I have ever seen on utube
I’ll keep this simple, it looks out of this world like some sort of cosmic debris, very psychedelic, I dig it!
Thank you!
Amazing work. You definitely are an incredibly talented artist. Keep making the videos and works of art.
Outstanding…. some of the best techniques I’ve seen.
Awesome!!! I wish I had this level of talent and creativity. Even watching how it’s been made makes me feel so good and enjoy a lot. It was GREAT!!!Thanks for sharing.
As an artist & craftsperson myself, I'm endlessly fascinated & impressed by how you can envision a finished result from your initial materials, and then work through to the remarkable final vision you had in mind? Every episode keeps me constantly guessing right to the end!
The impressive range of cool tools you have for getting there is awesome, too!! 😁 (The curved tool for hollowing out the bowl & spiky round attachment for smoothing the base were particular highlights this time, in that respect?)
Hats off to your hard work man... The results are just outstanding... What a finishing... Once in a month video is worth it...I wish I could buy this art but unfortunately I can't 😺👻.... Keep it up bro...💖 from India 🇮🇳
Wow David. Not only do you make turning wood an art, you also make filming about it. An extraordinary video and an extraordinary turned object. Chapeau. Opinion can be divided on the choice of neon colors and their use with epoxy resin, but as always, the beauty of art is in the eye of the beholder. Pollution is the use of so much epoxy anyway. Often, and even a little in this case, I don't understand why you can't leave such an exceptional wood and turn it like this, with all its cracks, holes and flaws. The beauty of the grain and the root wood would have been enough to justify not using plastic. Obviously you have access to such exotic pieces of wood, why don't you try something without this epoxy, just let nature work its magic. I and the oceans and our entire environment would be happy. Many greetings from northern Germany, stay healthy, Schorschi.
Pure wood will always unite nature and art more closely than wood and resin hybrids, but that doesn’t always tickle the fancy of customers. This commission would have been impossible without resin.
This really is spectacular. I know you're going for a Halloween cauldron vibe but under normal light it reminds me of some alien planet with incredible coast lines. Under black light it reminds of a nebula picture, like something we might get from the JWST. Either way, I hope this gets used for more than just trick-or-treat candy because it's too beautiful to keep hidden for the rest of the year!
Wow ! What a craftsman and artist you are. That’s the second one I’ve watched and I’m hooked.
It got me thinking about the fact that digital artists, those expert in computer graphics are possibly thought of as at the cutting edge of creating beautiful or unusual images, but seeing your films it shows that the ancient crafts, the timeless crafts such as working with wood are so much more beautiful. The way the natural object changes and evolves in the hands of the craftsman is mesmeric and deeply satisfying at a gut level.
That certainly brightened up this rainy Sunday on the West Coast of Scotland 😊
What an extraordinary piece. Absolutely gorgeous. And an equal amount of work to get that result!
Thanks Kristen!
