    John great video on your travel mugs. A couple of questions if you don’t mind answering. What price range can you sell your mugs? I donate woodturning items to a non profit and always ask what prices they can auction them, so this info would help. Lastly the model of your nova soft chucks thanks & great videos with your chipmunks haha!

    • @JohnWilliams-oq5nm
      @JohnWilliams-oq5nm Місяць тому

      That is correct. Slower would allow the epoxy to migrate and creat a “blob” on one side especially on larger diameter pieces. A little faster is ok.

    Thank you John for a great demo and fantastic result. The pieces you show look so good. Do you have to sand? If so, is it wet or dry sanding? Start at what grit? and work you way up to 5K or just decide only need one grit? Also Maguire polish has different abrasion levels. Which would you use. Lastly, if we can not build your creative drying machine, any alternatives? Can we use our lathe at the lowest (about 120 for me) speed? Thanks again. You enriched my knowledge.

    Wow! Spectacular video. Your creations are Beautifully done. Love the epoxy resin finish and omg the slow finishing turner rig is an engineering masterpiece. I’m new to Woodturning and it’s just a hobby for me. I have a midi lathe so my slowest speed is around 150 rpm’s. Way way too fast to do an epoxy finish so I got myself a bbq rotisserie motor and made my self a “slow turning finishing” rig/jig. Just made my biggest piece/bowl yet and the slow turner was key in getting a beautiful finish. 😊

    Thanks John. Hadn't done a finish with resin before and your presentation was very helpful. One point of interest is the use of protective gloves when using Resin. Continued use of Resin without gloves leaves you open to "Anaphylactic Shock". Please be careful.

    • @JohnWilliams-oq5nm
      @JohnWilliams-oq5nm 6 місяців тому

      Thank you for your comments. I actually do use gloves but didn’t in the video. Some people conflate 2 part epoxy and polyester resin. You may know there is a huge difference between them. I do use the two part epoxy which has much less health concerns.

    Because I used a sand and sealer before epoxy, one bowl turned out very good in the bottom of the inside. But the outside edge of the bowl was rough and I sanded it down to 220 grit. Do I need to sand it to bare wood or is close enough for epoxy to smooth it out? Does the inside , where it is very good, need to be sanded before the second coat?

    I can’t help but want to do this. I have the rotator, but so far my attempts have been foiled by fish eyes in the resin. Maybe try a different resin. Maybe try a good coat of wax free shellac first. Beautiful work, inspirational for me.

    • @JohnWilliams-oq5nm
      @JohnWilliams-oq5nm Рік тому

      Generally a torch will get rid of the bubbles. However, I do take three days to finish and use multiple coats and sand between 3 coats and the next and fill any imperfections. Then the two finish coats are near perfect?

      @@JohnWilliams-oq5nm By fish-eyes, I mean small areas where the resin wants to not cover. I brush it on, but then bare areas appear as something on the surface is repelling the resin. Maybe your resin is not prone to doing this. Maybe I am contaminating the surface with something. I thought an initial coating of shellac might solve it.

      @@balahmay Sounds like you have something on the wood. Shellac may work but I tend to think, considering your comment, it is not the epoxy. I use Alumalite Quick Coat. Sealing the wood with Shellac, while it would work, does not let the epoxy sink in and and bring out a much richer color than the shellac does.

    • @JohnWilliams-oq5nm
      @JohnWilliams-oq5nm Рік тому

      In a word - yes. The Moulthroups work is what inspired me to get into turning about 13 years ago. While in Atlanta and visiting the Signature Gallery my wife bought me one of Phillip’s pieces. I contacted Philip and let him know his work had inspired me to get into turning and asked if we could meet. He could not have been nicer and invited me to visit his shop. Philip showed me all of the areas of his shop and answered all questions. As i wanted to get into the epoxy we discussed that in detail and he was most helpful down to what RPM they needed to rotate. Turns out we graduated from high school the same year from Atlanta area schools and were going to our 50th reunion that summer.
