First time watching your channel. Love the piece. I also find that Walnut is notorious for radial lines when sanding. My favorite wood for ease of sanding is Mulberry as it sands without stubborn radial lines. Great idea for an inlay! I may have to give it a try. I have subscribed so I can keep an eye on what else you are doing and what I might learn for my own work. Thanks.
Nice project Vickii. I like that you made the recess on the bottom a feature with a ring and a few decorative elements. I prefer tenons, but it might have been a bit difficult given the depth you had to work with. Maybe a glued on waste block? The wheat looking feature in the rim is a great look. Did I miss you adding color to the epoxy? I think i would have done it clear. I've had some success using a heat gun to rid epoxy of bubbles. In this case that might have worked better than a torch in terms of not lighting tge wheat on fire. Still a beautiful piece. Keep trying new things.
Thanks, I actually prefer tenons also. No you didn’t miss adding the color to the epoxy it chose to cut it to save time on the video. I have a tendency to yammer on to much when I am working so I have to cut things sometimes to keep my videos from being to long. I would like to use clear, but am always concerned with yellowing of epoxy over time. So I always add a slight tint. Thank you for all of your advice. I really love getting feedback.
It almost looked like wheat. I liked that you showed the problems and think it turned out just fine. I know the feeling when you get to a point and see some sanding marks, happens to me way to often.
You can try three things; 1. seal the area with lacquer before putting the material in the track. 2. Use Deep Our epoxy. It takes a long time to dry, but penetrates the material better and will have almost no air pockets. 3. Make the track deeper so there is a thicker layer of epoxy on top.
What a great idea for an inlay. Looks great!
Thanks!

Thanks for watching. Glad to hear I am not the only one to struggle with sanding walnut. I hear mulberry can be very pretty. Happy turning.
Really nice bowl. One of my favorite inlays I've seen!
Awesome, thank you! 😊
Wow! The inlay is amazing. I just bought a ten gallon pressure pot that I’m hoping will fit a piece like this. Well done!
Awesome! Thank you! Good luck with your pressure pot. Can wait to see what you produce in your videos.
That is a beautiful bowl. Good job looks gorgeous.
Thank you very much Ray!

I love that you don't go for the easy pieces. I'm the same way even though it takes me forever to get a piece done. Nice job 👍👍
Thank you! 😊
