Beautiful outcome but using a scraping method even if it’s a carbide tool is dangerous and leaves a very rough surface, especially when you hang the tool so far out from the rest. Use a variety of tools in a cutting/slicing technique for a much safer and easier and enjoyable approach, (ride the bevel on a bowl or spindle gouge for instance) especially in a piece that has grain running every which way like that. And to not wear a face shield is quite careless in reality. I’ve had a chuck jaw break off on me and it slammed into my shield and would certainly have damaged my face and possibly blinded me. Safety glasses at the least but really a good polycarbonate face shield should be mandatory if turning. I’m a very experienced turner and selective on wood I turn, but even a piece that seems sound can have a hidden crack and release shrapnel! Sometimes with disastrous results. Speaking from experience. You have only one pair of eyes. Be safe, take care!
Question from a newbie. How did u get the air bubbles out after u poured the solution? Was that some sort of a shaker? Didnt see u put it in a pressure pot. Thanks. Beautiful piece.
This is good but you don't have to have a vacuum. You definitely need a pressure pot. Don't waste your time without one. A vacuum pot does way more and better.
You can buy a cheap one at harbor freight and convert it. Maybe 60 bucks. It doesn't take a lot of pressure. But it's necessary for good results. If not. You will get tons of bubbles.
At 9:40 you can clearly see a safety mask, and in the part where he is not wearing a mask and glasses he’s looking down the end and out of the line of fire if it was to come apart.

As a fellow wood turner. I completely agree. Good advice in regards to using those carbide tools like that .. but hey it works
Beautiful! Where do you get the materials to make your moulds? Great job
Thank you! You can use everything to make mold. In this case I used cake plastic sheet
Nice
Cool. Great.

I am using vacuum pump with vacuum chamber. This is the best way for remove air bubbles, but its a longer procces. Thanks!

Seeing no eye protection was used, I cringed.
No mask or safety glasses!!!! 😬
Here comes the safety police. Calm down.
@@Roosters-rants1977 seen too many injuries to “calm down!” Please send video of you telling your wife to “calm down!” 😂
