- In this video I make a piece without the use of a pressure pot and explain why I prefer to use one. Luckily the piece came out pretty good, but I will not be trying this again. I feel a pressure pot is a requirement if turning with resin. Thank you very much to Simple Woodturning Tools for providing the scraper and rougher used in this video. They worked fantastic and I’m sure to get a lot of use out of them in the future.

You are an artist. You think like an artist. You talk like an artist. Your work is beautiful.
Thank you Scott. I consider myself more of a dirty mechanic, but maybe I can work towards being an artist too. 🤣🤣. As always thanks for your kind words. Have a great day!
I love the idea of a colorblind person picking a color because "It sounds cool"
It looks cool too!
I'm not colorblind and I still do that 😂 we picked a specific shade of green for our living room because it was called "T-Rex" 🦖
My mother would strongly disagree when my colour blind sister painted mum's house when she was away on holiday.. local painter made the most of it repainting..
Colorblind people somehow manage to bring out the most beautiful colors in their work, I remember I heard of a colorblind artist who goes by color codes instead of how they look and it looked supernaturally beautiful
Believe me if you can start with a block and let it speak to you you're an artist. I have to see the completed piece before I start, left brain. Actually your artistry is what sets you apart from some of the other wood turning channels.
Stunning, one of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful pieces I've seen turned. Absolutely stunning!
Wow, thank you! Hope you have a great day!
That turned out amazing! Good choice on the color...I choose my wine by how cool the labels look.🤣
GORGEOUS PIECE!!
Your color selection based on how it sounds is outstanding ..... and the best (!!) part is that you didn't choose to do yet another piece in BORING black ..... THANK YOU!!
😉👍😉
Loved what you said about letting the wood speak to you... spoken like a true artist. Beautiful piece!! So glad I found your channel. 😊
Thank you so much Cynthia. Glad you liked it. Hope you have a great day!
Patience is the key to a glass like finish. Great job.
First time I have watched one of your videos. Really like your style, your explanation of what you are doing was great much better than other turning videos with no talking. Platter really looks great.
Thank you sir. Didn’t talk in my first few. Still trying to get the hang of it. Hopefully I’ll improve with more practice. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great day!
Another fantastic piece! I really need to stop binging on your videos and wash dishes or clean up the house or do SOMETHING productive today, LOL! But your videos are so cool to watch
One more won’t hurt 🤣🤣. Seriously tho. Thank you for the support. Hopefully I can keep making interesting pieces that are enjoyable to watch. Have a great day.
Scott
Absolutely gorgeous ❤❤❤ Hexagons are the bestagons! 🎉
I think so too!
Ah an enlightened one in the wild
Beautifully done 😻👏🏻🥰‼️
absolutly beautiful 😍🙂👍🏻
My son is colorblind too, red & green or just red. Can’t remember which. I know for sure he’s red, because I remember him thinking a red balloon was pink. I don’t remember him having trouble with any greens though. He picks his clothes out fine though. Plus, he’s artistic.
Very well done. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thank you kindly. Hope you have a good day as well
Scott
That is an amazing piece!
Your work is beautiful, your beard is epic. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you kindly! I hope you have a wonderful day.
Scott
You’re like the final boss of wood turning. Amazing energy. You remind me so much of my dad.
Wow, thanks
Great looking piece! It gave me an idea for something similar with pentagons.
I modified my vacuum chamber so that I could pour resin in while under vacuum. I usually leave the wood in for as much as 12 hours before adding the resin without breaking the vacuum. I then wait for the resin to degas, after which it goes into the pressure pot. The result is absolute clarity.
I also use glue my project to a piece of sacrificial OSB.so that I don't have to screw the flange into the work piece. It's easy to part off the OSB when the bowl is all but finished, then flip it and hold it by the rim for the final work on the bottom. Much less material, particularly resin, is wasted that way.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the tip Bruce, I might try that sacrificial OBS idea. Hope you have a good day.
Very cool, dude! Gorgeous color choice!!
It's beautiful!!!
One word description: WOW.
Turned out fantastic. I really enjoy your work. And thank you for supporting America!
Well I am a purple nut. So I love it anyways. The finished product is just absolutly amazing. I would be pround to own it. Love the production work. Your are right about the pressure method, I have seen lots of videos of where it (the project) came out better. My hat is off to you Sir.
It’s a shame you don’t get to see the beautiful colors in your amazing creations.
It would be a shame if I couldn’t see at all. I have never known anything different, so I don’t feel like I’m missing out. Thanks for watching. I hope you have a great day!
I just love the term. Let My Piece Speak To Me Great work and I will have to start watching more videos.
Awesome! Thank you ! Hope you have a great day!
I enjoy watching what a piece looks like along the way. I confess that I occasionally fuss at the screen ,"no, don't do that".
This looks too pretty to use.
Thanks. Do I do something that made you fuss at the screen? Just curious.
That came out BEAUTIFULLY
Thanks David.
The symmetry is mesmerizing
That’s beautiful
Wow! What a stunning piece🤩
Fantastic platter. Love the geometric design. I'd say it counts as art.
Thank you Tim
Beautiful bowl! And I love the color! 😀
Amazing looking piece. The colors are terrific!
Thank you Chris!
Precioso trabajo!
I guess all the prep work is worth it. That came out very cool!! Hope you get a fair price for your turnings!!
Thanks for watching Tom . I don’t sell anything I make. Give it all away to friends and family. Hope you have a great day!
Beautiful
wow sir. Thank you so much for sharing the details of how you created this awesome turning. I am a true beginner and this video gives me so much hope! I like that you share details to give me a plan to pursue my dream. Thank you.
Thanks Glen! Honestly I’d consider myself a beginner as well. I just have a good amount of experience with tools and machinery in general. Just can’t be afraid to mess up and make mistakes. (Just stay safe). Thanks for watching. I hope you have a great day!
Really like the end piece. The color came out looking awesome. Totally agree about the pressure pot being needed for the bubbles. Thanks for sharing it's much appreciated. Cheers Bruce
Thank you Bruce! Hope you have a great day!
Awesome job handsome man. You made an incredible choice in color. Love it!!
Thanks for watching! I’d say it’s more of a color guess, but I’ll take it. Hope you have a great day!
Beautifully done!
Nádherná práce 👍💯❤💯👍
Absolutely Beautiful.....Well done you.!
Thank you , your work is absolutely beautiful. It's very inspirational to motivate me to get back into turning . From one of your subscribers
Wonderful! Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!
Beautiful bowl.
Thank you! Cheers!
You have a ridiculously clean shop.
Amazing!
I’m gonna call charcuterie “coochie” forever now
Impressive.
Wow, really looks great.
Very Nice
I would completely advertise that this is developed by a color, blind person, and the color is chosen by name. It makes it funnier because it’s masterful already and picking the color by name is so whimsical
Haha. Thats a great point, maybe I’ll switch up the title. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great day!
@@squareandlevel you and yours have a fantastic day as well!
Really nice work and I really like the elevated style.
Thank you very much!
stunning piece
Thank you!
STUNNING PIECE, LOVE THE COLOR YOU USED AND DESIGN
Hope it came out great! Have a good day!
Gorgeous! Well done! 😊
Thank you! 😊
Another really entertaining wood and resin turning. You are turning out great content and I really like the product information of what you use and why.
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. Looking forward to your next video. Hope you have a great day.
Lovely
Nice
Very nice piece !!!
Thanks John
Just popped in to say the thumbnail looks like a blue waffle
Have a great day
I clicked the thumbnail to look for comments like this
Very nice.
An' you know what's eeeeeeven cooooler?
A kick ass beard! 🙃
The short version of using a pressure pot versus a vacuum chamber is that a pressure pot shrinks bubbles really small so they’re hard to see while a vacuum chamber performs a different function entirely; with a vacuum chamber, it will force air out of the wood into the epoxy, and this will cause more bubbles that must then be popped. If you wanted, you could stabilize wood first, then use a pressure pot and it basically eliminates any bubbles, but presealing the wood or using a deep casting epoxy will give time for any stray bubbles to get to the surface hopefully.
I don’t stabilize wood myself, but I love watching wood stabilizing videos and seeing what people create
If large enough you can let the resin cure under vacuum. However that will replace the air in the wood with the resin in use so you might have to stabilize first. A slow curing resin cured under vacuum will be extremely free of bubbles.
love your voice!
you made a beautiful piece.
Thank you so much!
Very nice!
Thank you Gordon.
I prefer steel gouges to carbide. You can get them sharper than the carbide and they cut instead of scraping. Its always given me better results.
Vacume chamber before you pour, pressure pot for curing without bubbles.
Great video. You're a real artist. When I paint minis for my tabletop games, I also allow the mini to come out how it wants to
Thank you Aaron
i do the same with repainting figures and resin art. a true artist knows that sometimes something does not come out as planned and mistakes are not mistakes but happy little accidents.
@@helema23, wise quote from Bob Ross and so true
@@aaronpaulus3492 bob ross was the man that got me into doing painting then it expanded from there to other types of art. I remember him back from the pbs days and loved the "our little secret" moments.
Beautiful :)
Beautiful piece and interesting process. Full view and Like 👍
Thank you so much 😊
how did i not see this. Amazing job. This is a fantastic video.
Thanks you sir! Hope you have a great day.
@@squareandlevel always mate :)
Awesome video, you can get glasses to help with colourblindness
Nuostabus meno kūrinys 👍👍👍👍👍
Linkiu sėkmės kuriant naujus meno kūrinius.

Did anyone else think of blue waffle when looking at the thumbnail?
Keep up the good work!
Was looking forward to your side kick though😆
I’m sure he will make an appearance every once in a while. Thanks for watching!
I’d personally like to high five you twice. Once for the project, and twice for that beard. Sir, you clearly have rocked them both.
Hahaha. Thank you for putting a smile on my face. Was having a tough morning. Thank you for watching, I hope you have a great day!!
@@squareandlevel Anytime my friend. We all have those days from time to time. I try to remind myself that if the good Lord let me have another day , and I get to look at the tops of the flowers instead of the roots, the day is gonna be a good one. lol. I hope your day gets better man. I’ll say a prayer for you.
I found that after degassing the resin, passing it through a straw / tube from a funnel at one side only and letting it flow till filled has fewer air bubbles within.
Great piece. There’s a guy here on RUclips that makes a lot of silicone molds. And he says to pour from the bottom up from one location so the air gets pushed up and out as you fill it up. Instead of pouring all over the place, which adds air into the mix.
Thanks for the tip. Hope you have a great day!
justin chancellor teaching my how to turn, whoa!
great piece definitely worth the wait.....I really like that you use raw linseed oil...the really safe oil.....too many people in my view use BLO and assume its safe to handle.
Thanks for sharing (new subscriber here)
Thank you!
it helps to degas your resin. if you use a vacuume regulator. Some where in the neighborhood of 10 to 14 inches of vacuum
This is . . . M A G I K !
I like your style brother,
INSTANT SUBSCRIBER 👍
Looking forward to seeing more of what you make.
~Jonny5🥁
Thank you Mr 5. Hope you have a great day!
nice work!
what brand resin do you use? sorry if i missed that info
Ive made dozens of resin projects for thr lathe and not once did i sue a presusre pot (dont own one) and only for like 10 did i use my vacuum chamber to degas the resin. I use the slow cure deep epoxy that takes 7 days to fully cure and never had any issues beyond what you have shown with the ocasional tiny airbubble on a few pieces
Hello. This is the first time I've watched one of your videos. work is really fantastic, and I liked that in this video you both illustrated how to create the piece but also the tools required to do it, and the reasoning behind your preferences. I do have one general question: Are you able to do anything with the wood and/resin 'shaving' that comes off as your working? I know virtually nothing about woodworking, but it seems there would be a way with more resin and the pressure machine to create an interesting looking piece.
My friend Kristen's son calls charcuterie shark cootie! 😂
would love to have a more in depth explanation of why you pressurize vs de-gas. How would pressurizing get rid of the gas in the wood?
Excellent job very nice. One suggestion after thousand grit you go to 1200 1500 2000 it will look like glass even though it looks great the way you done you would be happier if you take it this far just a suggestion thanks for the video.
Thanks for the tip Mike. More sanding yay! I’ll get it figured out. The buffing/polishing wheel definitely helps a great deal. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great day!
You can take the purple pigment powder and put it in the air bubble holes and add thin CA glue and it works great. I do it all the time on my pieces. And if you like supporting American made stuff, you should check out ACKs wood abrasive. It's a small family owned American company. Their wood abrasive paste is every bit as good as Yorkshire.
Thank for the tip! I’ll give it a shot and check out the ack abrasive. Hope you have a great day!
I can't belive he thought that was purple! 🤣
😜
For a minute, i thought you were holding a custom ukulele at the beginning. Man I need to get my eyes checked.
Another gorgeous project! Do you typically use Alumilite resin for casting these projects? I have yet to cast with epoxy. I agree that curing under pressure is preferred. I just purchased a vacuum chamber and Cactus Juice from Curtis Seebeck with plans to stabilize the wood for these projects.
Thanks Tim! I have moved away from using the Alumilite for now. The Epoxy is just must easier to work with. I’ve found little to no difference in the way it turns or effort needed in finishing. The stabilizing process definitely helps with the alumilite but it is a multiple day, if not longer process. So It makes the fast cure time kinda pointless. Wish you the best of luck in your turning projects. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great day!
Great video. The care taken to position the hexagons really paid off and it looks perfect. How did you end up turning off the tenon on something so large?
I jam chucked the piece with scrap pine and some anti skid drawer liner material. Tightened down on the live center in the tail stock and carefully removed the tenon until there was just a little nub left. Removed that with chisel and hand sanded the bottom. Lot of extra steps that I didn’t think added anything great to the video so I cut it out. I figured no one would even notice. Apparently I was wrong…. Thank you for the great question and thanks for watching! Hope you have a great day!
Imagine the surprise of scrolling through recommendations and seeing a thumbnail with a blue waffle….
Aqui no Brasil usamos um termo em palavrão pra expressar uma coisa boa, que é P Q P, as vezes só sendo brasileiro vai entender mas vou tentar traduzir "bom trabalho"... Mais um inscrito.
All the prep work proves that we use algebra....every day.
What pressure pot are you using
