A Disaster with Olive Burl
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2022
- Full of natural voids, stress cracks, and unstable features, this olive burl was always going to explode, but I was determined to try and complete this project without the use of resin. Unfortunately, that turned out to be the only way to salvage this piece in the end.

Boy meets burl. Boy loses burl. Boy gets burl back again. A classic, timeless story. Well told!

What a save, it's b eautiful

Our society really needs more channels like these to be recognized. We are losing how valuable and important it is to have craftsmen and women who are proficient and passionate in their works, as seen here.
Truly, a magnificent redemption to a beautiful tragedy.
Be safe! Keep spinning! ;D
Wow, thanks so much, I appreciate that!
Less computer games, less franchised sports, less Hollywood drivel, less advertisement's ! And more Arts and Crafts Please. The Celts were famous for their artistic output. What will our generations be remembered for ?
Don't worry. When AI takes all of the high paying white collar jobs all that will be left is tradecraft.
Thanks for staying with it and going back to create an awesome piece. My gracious, I cannot imagine how your heart must have sunk when the original piece fell apart. The hours and days invested are way beyond what is captured in your excellent 20-minute video. Superb job!!
Thanks so much, Richard!
absolutely beautiful❤
I just stumbled on your channel for the first time. I am breathless! Even though you put "disaster' in the title, I was not prepared for the extent of devastation, But your recovery was far more astounding. The piece is breathtaking!!! AND, the camera work is phenomenal. Wow! I just subscribed after one video.
Thanks so much!
Heavens……I can’t believe how you managed to snatch victory out of such a shattered defeat!!! Such a glorious, beautiful result, you’re a genius!!!
Thanks Beverley! I appreciate that.
The sign of a true craftsperson - to have a disaster but then work out a way to still end up with a truly amazing piece of work. And even better - it has more of a story to carry with it - so stunning!
Thank you!
@@DavidAdamsen I'm not sure you'll see this but I was wondering how you would have applied the epoxy if it didn't break? Just hollow out the centre again filled with wpoxy instead of the replacement wood?
Craftsman'
I can’t even imagine how upset you must have been when that broke. Especially since you were so close to being done, but I’m so glad you came back to it. It turned out beautiful!
Beautiful salvage. I would have been finished when it first broke. I absolutely love it.
It was fun to see the carving from the inside thanks to all of the gaps and holes. I'm not surprised that it shattered, but your rescue was wonderful.
Thanks Judy!
Using the black resin with the olive wood was magical !!! It turned out so beautiful !! I only wish I could buy something as wonderful as this, but all I can do is tell you how great your creativity is!! I absolutely LOVE this, you are a true artist !!😍
Are you a Texas McDaniel by any chance? NJ McD. over here, by way of Texas (pappy).
Truly remarkable work. It’s such a beautiful piece. Your vision of its destiny after the disaster is a reflection of your talent & experience. Congratulations on a piece worthy of a museum.
You have great talent! Not to mention that your patience is far better than most everyone I know. You can make a beautiful masterpiece out of anything! Awesome job! I love it! Bravo!
Thank you!
The shattered pieces had a beauty of their own. The end product just goes to show…breathtaking. Thanks for sharing your talent.
From catastrophe to beauty, your rescue technique was brilliant! Another wonderful project from a master.
Thanks Dave!
Wowww, it almost looks like an ancient greek vase, spectacular!!!
You love your work so much, you do it twice! Beautiful.
With that many cracks and voids, I'd be scared to death to work on something like that. Braver man than I. Glad you were able to salvage and finish it. Looks amazing, as always.
Thanks! Yeah it was pretty dicey there for a while...
That is beyond words of how stunning this piece is. Firstly, olivewood is MY FAVOURITE wood to turn. I almost exploded when it exploded off the lathe. However, this a great example of how a turning mishap can turn into something magnificent. Thanks for sharing your journey on this olivewood piece. 😍😍😍
Thank you so much!
This is absolutely my favourite rescue story : such a beautiful piece of art, l can't stop staring at it!
Thanks so much!
Such beauty. I love the addition of epoxy resin❣️you are a true craftsman. Thank you for sharing your art.
"From the ashes of disaster grow the roses of success." A strikingly beautiful creation.
I absolutely love the different camera angles in this video!
Stunning! That had to be a very old Olive tree. That burl was big & wildly patterned.
Kudos for finding solution to burl flying apart. It looked great in the end. Patience & perseverance pays off.
A sign of a true craftsman, never gives up. Absolutely gorgeous.
You turned a disaster into a beautiful work of art!
This is a lesson of: “Never give-up!” ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks William!
I can’t stop watching. It is so nostalgic, watched both dad and brother do beautiful work
Beauty = taking risks, adapting to obstacles, using your imagination and persevering. A story, a life lesson and a piece of art. Lovely work.
Absolutely stunning! The way you retrieved what looked like a loss is beyond remarkable and a lesson to all of us never to give up when things don't go according to plan...
I felt your frustration- but so glad you stuck with it.. resilience is a gift, like the wood, people can break, but we can come back together into something we never could have dreamed of - thanks for sharing this.
What can I say that others haven't? When a bowl explodes like that, who would think of trying to recover? Nobody. Nobody except David Adamsen, of course. What a great recovery David. You have enhanced my respect for your skills, perseverance and sheer "bloody mindedness"!
Well done mate!
Well turned!
Re-watched on 04/09/2022 (UK). I've fallen in love with, the execution, the skill of the turner, the brilliance of the video production and the sheer artistry of the whole experience! My go to vid on a lazy Sunday afternoon with a glass of Croft Original Sherry.
Well done David! 🙂
Thanks so much, Bryan! I appreciate that!
Impossible to say which version would have been more beautiful…but, this one is certainly outstanding. Great save. Very well done as usual.
Thank you so much!
@@DavidAdamsen bu kullanılan ne ağacı merak ettim bilgi verirsen teşekkür ederim 🇹🇷
@@DavidAdamsen bu işler için genelde hangi ağaç lar kullanılıyor
@@ylmazkorkmaz5947 this one is olive wood burl. But you can use all sorts of trees for turning.
@@DavidAdamsen teşekkürler dostum 👍🙋
Stunning piece. Amazing how you salvaged the pieces to turn it into a gorgeous work of art.
Absolutely amazing and so beautiful. Proudness begins when the job is completed.
Absolutely Gorgeous Piece David. The original turning was just beautiful. My heart sank when it blew apart. Love the fact that you didn't give up on it. The outcome of your final turning really pops. Thank you for sharing this video.
Thank you, Carl!
Ouch! That hurt when it fell apart… A troublesome project also when the screws broke on you… yet an absolute gorgeous piece of work. Again. Yes, the piece itself is nothing short of a beauty also your way of videoing it. Many thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Frank!
Glad you're not a quitter. What a gorgeously done masterpiece. Congratulations!!
Wow, Dood! That is IMPRESSIVE! It is beautiful! Great job!
смотрела с замиранием сердца!Красиво,необычно,тонкая работа!
😄
Wow, you really had to work for this one. Nice save. It came out beautiful.
Thanks Adam!
Turned out beautiful! The golden Hughes of the wood with the contrast of black gives it an elegant appearance.
Went from a fella enjoying a day in his shop.
To a man on a mission!
Mission completed.
Very nice.
You got that right! Thanks for watching!
I was holding my breath the entire time you were turning the bare olive burl. The explosion was expected but still saddened me. The phoenix that arose from the pieces is spectacular!
Thanks Dennis!
I was holding my breath watching you turn off the tenon. When I saw the count down come on, I gasped. I know it is isn’t how you intended to turn out, but is absolutely beautiful. You continue to amaze and inspire me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.
Thank you, Jason!
So absolutely beautiful. Such a gifted craftsman. Well done.
Simply the most beautiful piece I have ever seen...
You are a true genius! You could call this a twice turned bowl! Fabulous, fabulous work!
Thanks Joe!
I’m 100 % sure it turned out much more beautiful with the resin, but then again I just don’t care too much for live edge. Beautiful save🤩
VIDEO OF THE YEAR.... NOW THIS IS THE TRUE MEANING OF NOT GIVING UP, NOT TO REGRET ANYTHING, NOT TO LOSE HOPE, NOT TO HATE YOUR HOBBY WHEN YOU FAIL, THE RESULT IS PURE SUCCESS. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
Beautiful!
The beauty of creative thinking and creation! Congratulations!
I'm glad you saved it.
Thank you, Lance!
I had to watch this video twice. I just couldn't believe how much work and patience went into this piece. This is truly one of the best artworks I have seen. Thank You so much for sharing.
Before the project started it’s major splitting I thought it would have made a spectacular light fixture. The light shining through the various odd cut outs would be beautiful.
What a wonderful fix. Gorgeous!
Thought you were quitting after the piece broke love how you repaired it and continued on… you didn’t quit… fantastic piece of art
This piece is incredible, David! It was devastating to see it break, but I think the re-turn of the bowl actually enhanced its beauty--like Japanese kinsugi! This reminds me of Bilbo's poem with a little twist: "Renewed shall be bowl that was broken". Well done--a thousand times, well done!!!
Thank you so much! ❤️
AS the saying goes: "Never let a good disastergo to waste" and you made the most out of it. Congratulations on a striking beautifully crafted master piece.
That piece is absolutely gorgeous, I'm so happy you were able to bring it back. My heart sank when it exploded on the lathe. Awesome work. That is so beautiful
The end result is a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for your hard work.
Is it microwave & dishwasher safe?
With such a horrifying explosion and destruction of the bowl, you are the master of recovery. Beautiful bowl and awesome video photography, you’ve turned out another masterpiece.
Thanks Tommy!
Great work and recovery. Thanks for showing it all the way through..
Wow! You turned that right around! Stunning ❤
Outstanding save! Very glad that you were not hurt when it let go. My father made beautiful turnings as well. Some made it into museums and given as prestigious gifts to "VIP's". Beautiful work!
WOW...I think that is the most beautiful wood bowl I've ever seen! Absolutely stunning and a mesmerizing video to boot! 👏👏👏
Thank you Bob!
Love how this turned out , thank you xx👍👍
This masterpiece would not have existed if it weren’t for its earlier disaster.
I was sad when the burl exploded because it was such a beautiful bowl, but the finished product is 10 TIMES MORE BEAUTIFUL!!! Stunning!
The absolute best salvage/repair project I've ever witnessed. Bravo!!
Wow! That is SO beautiful !
Beautiful work! Your ingenuity, dedication and infinite patience are impressive.
Wow! Incredible recovery, David. I liked the bowl before it blew apart. But now, I like it even more. If it were me turning the bowl, the pieces would have ended up in file 13 or the fire wood pile. But you, took a bowl full of lemons and turned it into lemonade. You came up with a very ingenious way to save the turning. This is why I think you are becoming one of the best wood turners in RUclips. And believe me, there are many great wood turners on RUclips and you’re among the best.
Thank you so much John! I really appreciate that!
As soon as that timer came up on screen near the 8 minute mark... my head was in my hands! Kudos to you brother, you saved the project and it looked amazing. 👏👏👏
Thanks David.
Not only a stunning bowl, but great photography as well. Such a pleasure to watch.
This project contains a myriad of great life lessons. Thank you for sharing, and thanks for continuing in the face of failure to finish strong. Blessings and peace.
Good evening. Wow! I love everything about this video except the explosion. The reworked piece is very elegant. Perfect! Your mold for the pour was incredible.
This is absolutely stunning!! It has so much beauty and character!
Thank you!
Wow! Good save! Beautiful!
Can only be described as magnificent, it threw everything at you but your persistence certainly paid off. Wonderful video. 😊
There is a reason you bounced back from your tree stand fall so well. Resiliency. Demonstrated in this project. I have seen some pretty fascinating repairs, before. This is now the best and biggest I've ever seen. Well done, David!
Thank you so much, Jay!
Not only highly skilled woodworking, but beautifully done camera work and music. Your piece is magnificent!
Beautiful! Olive wood and black epoxy is always a magic combo.
It's beautiful! I'm glad you didn't give up on it!
This piece of art is exquisite!! Thank you for sharing your amazing skills with us.
Stunning! I am amazed at what you were able to do after the burl exploded. Truly, a work of art!
Wow ! I am impressed. A beautiful work of art.
Amazing what came out of this old piece of wood! Beautiful!
Beautiful piece, David. I'm glad you weren't injured when the explosion occurred. Even though you didn't want to use resin, I think it really added to the overall beauty. Just my opinion. Take care.
Bill
Thanks Bill!
That is a fantastical piece of artwork! It is a beautiful bit of mastery. I don't ever remember being disappointed with a piece of your work.
Thank you!
Outstanding! I enjoyed the adventure. Great save. Thanks for sharing. GBU
Great work ethic to salvage that beautiful burl! Well done!
OMG.....Unbelievable transformation. What an absolutely beautiful bowl.
Truly a tale of heartbreak and triumph. Never thought I would be crying bc of Woodturning videos but here we are. EXCELLENT WORK!
Thank you, Lexi!
Very well done! Never letting the disaster win but taking it and making something beautiful out of it. Well done!
Breathtakingly beautiful. I love it!!! 😃
After the storm, a masterpiece! Bravo.. truly piece of art.
Thank you!
Beautiful piece and beautiful save!
Thank you, Russell!
Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful
Love your work! Thank you for sharing your art😊
Love the cinematography. Beautiful piece!
Totally awesome. All turners have had that peice that blew apart or ran across the floor. I have saved those I had high hopes for myself but never like you did. I was thinking "Artifacts of a great woodturner" BUT the video was only half finished. You are a true artisan and teacher to us all.
Thank you, Darrell! Always trying to learn how to improve!
STUN-NING! Beautiful form and, of course, lovely wood!
Thanks Kerri!
Spectacular save! Beautiful result!
I am in awe of your workmanship! Outstanding job ❤
