It’s really interesting to be starting out watching your latest resin bowls, and now going back to your inlay “roots” to see where you came from. Love this burned edge! I’ve never even heard of doing that before, and the effect is fabulous! Very cool!
Viewers can learn so much more from you than woodturning. I once had a teacher when I was in college who told us that if we learned everything about one thing, we’d learn all there is to know. I can’t thank you enough.
What a beautiful bowl with a really nice inlay and a burnt edge it's cool. The wood is really lovely it's got some nice grain and the finish is awesome well done Jim. Amanda x
Wow, that looks amazing! I actually thought you painted or laminated the edge of the bowl! I was shocked when you said, "Okay, lets get the torch and burn it!" 🤣 Definitely the last thing I thought I'd hear after all that work on a wood project! I love the natural edge of the bowl. It's really cool! I like that you don't cut them down to make it even. It makes for a much more interesting piece! It does have less holding capacity tho, so it's good you do both.
What a Brilliant combination! You Put the shavings on paper, you can roll it into a funnel for quickly filling spots and a second one on your Matt will catch the loose shavings, you can again bend it to a funnel to place back into the jar to be used again later, it’s great with glitter or any of those fine mediums that you have to buy, “waste not want not”
wow very different. I hadn't seen inlay done until your channel. I really love the contrast of the light timber with the brass and the burnt edge. Just stunning
BEAUTIFUL BOWL INLAY.... I had never seen it done that way with tree branches.... Great detail of the process....Thanks again for the lesson!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's another beautiful bowl! The finished shape is very artistic, and the burnt black edges go well with the end result. And so with the inlays, it's quite attractive. This is another number 1 for me. Wow! Thank you! 👍🏻🤗💕🇺🇸
ONCE AGAIN YOU GOT ME WITH YOUR WORKMEN SHIP. FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS ITEM AND ONCE AGAIN I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PURCHASE ANY OF THE THING YOU MAKE BUT YOU ARE GREAT AND THEY ARE LOVELY. THANK FOR THE SHOW
Hi Jim, its defintely a beauty, wow, it reminds me to the paintings of Gustav Klimt. Last winter i started to fill a cracked bowl with cherry branches and soapstone powder and another one with maple branches and crushed malachite. You are a great teacher . Now I will try brass shavings. Thank you for giving us such impressing examples! Cheers Stefan
That fruit bowl turned out really beautiful, less is more! The brass shavings look cool! I thought that they wouldn’t be detectable, NOT! You can truly see it shine! Great job!
I'm really a fan of your work . I just found your channel, about a month ago . But you are quickly becoming my favorite . I am not a turned yet . I am saving for my first lathe . Thank you for the inspiration .
Excellent piece Jim. I’m loving your videos. With the exception of Captain Eddy Castelin I find that most videos really are “watch how I do this” without providing sufficient details. With your videos you provide excellent info and instructions on how you go about with your craft as well as providing the pitfalls based on your experience. I’ve watched three of your videos since discovering your channel earlier today. I’ve learned something from each one. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos in the following days. For now, I’m wishing you continued success.
Awesome! Thanks. I’ve also notice the same thing with a lot of videos on here. I don’t know if you watch Kim Tippin’s channel but she called me the other day and said that I’m the only person on here doing natural inlays too. I was a little shocked by this and I think she’s right. Stay safe, Jim.
Again amazing! I really like the brass filler with the lighter wood, works well. The piece is gorgeous. Really love the branches you use with the filler. I'm with you I love the shine also.
Jim, I couldn't bare to see salad tossed in that beautiful work of SpagueArt. It's an offence deserving of "hot" tar and feathering! Hell yeah you should sign your work! All true Artists do. As always, thanks for letting me and all of us visit you and your shop. Hey, don't vacuum up that shop floor. It's what makes me feel right at home! ;-)) Wakodahatchee Chris
lovely idea .. i kept seeing a bouquet of flowers with the branch inserts being the flower heads. you've given me inspiration. thank you. beautiful work.
Wow this one is exquisite..I love the black around the rim and the inlay looks like a fantasy flower !it even has a stem..This has been made out of a beautiful piece of wood..Defiantly one of my favourites 😀
Thank you for this impressive video. Although i started woodturning only a year ago, i got lots of inspirations of your work and even tried some of the tecniques i saw. Keep on turning !
Hi Jim, I have been watching some of your previous video's, you are a truly great artist. Wow, the grain in the bowl is stunning and the brass and twigs are a great feature. Thanks for sharing
I haven't been through your entire video library yet, but have you considered doing some bowls, platters and vases in the shou sugi ban wood burning method? I think it would definitely be interesting if you combined the burnt wood, inlays and resin along with having warped rims. Turned out fantastic!
We all have moments of organization and total disorganization! 😁 you should see my craft space at the moment, NOT! 😆 Keep the awesome videos coming! 👏👏
Jim, I can’t believe it’s been four years ago, too bad you can’t get credit for every time I watch each video. However, I saw something today that I didn’t see before. I saw a sitting fox, with its head down. Closer to the end, as you were applying the finish. Way cool. Did you or anyone else notice it ???
That is an absolutely beautiful creation. Love the fact you use natural materials. I’ve tinkered with resin, which is great, but using natural seems a more ethical solution. You also don’t have to wait an age for the resin to harden :-) Really appreciate you sharing your ideas, skills and experience with us.. looking forward to more projects.
Great job. Can I send you a few pics of a burl for your suggestions? It has a hole in the bottom and was high up in the tree so I could not get a straight cut and I have a few chainsaw cuts in it. Would you suggest a resin fill maybe with metal filings or something else? Any ideas appreciated
Can u put them in a cup were u don’t have to glue or is it ok to glue can u put resin in the hole with the branches l thought the black was resin Jim it is so beautiful
I love you teaching method and useful information. I just wondered why you do not use a clear resin fill for something like this. So the brass would be the feature with the little branches. Just wondering. Keep up the good work and making those videos!
Glad I found this video! Not just for getting to see the amazing results you got on that bowl, but also because I'm working on a walking stick handle which is going to have a similar look to the inlay: small branches and twigs showing the end grain. I'd thought of filling the gaps with just sawdust, but the brass really makes it better. New subscriber,too!
Hey Jim. It's refreshing to see someone with a point of difference. The inlay and burned rim took a somewhat ordinary bowl to totally different level. More importantly the inlay different steel the show from the richness of the timber. I have subscribed to you channel with anticipation to see what you do next. 👍
Happy Holidays Jim to you and your family! 🌲🎄🍁✨ I just watched this video again fir the third time and absolutely loved it. I think I got more out of the video this time than last. The bottom of the bowl looks almost like some otherworldly rabbit with multiple eyes! You are a master at enhancing nature’s paint brush! 👏👏👏
Same to you, say safe! I know it’s been a tough year for a lot of folks. I really like working with theses pieces that have flaws, bring them back from what would of been firewood to being the center piece that sits on your table and treated like art! Thanks, Jim.
Duct Tape should be worshiped...lol A very nice piece indeed sir. Nice to see how things change. Like the fact that you moved into the resin work, it gives it more of an artistic feel to you work. Like the brass it looks great sir. An outstanding bowl.🌿 👍👍👍
HI Jim. New subscriber, as I just found your channel tonight. Just binge watched several of your videos, and I want to see more! I was very intrigued when I saw your glue pan!!!! Could you talk about that sometime? Happy turning and stay safe.
Would love to see the effect of burning the end grain of the branches as well ... may not be possible given the effects on the brass, but the color contrast would be interesting Great piece !
It’s really interesting to be starting out watching your latest resin bowls, and now going back to your inlay “roots” to see where you came from. Love this burned edge! I’ve never even heard of doing that before, and the effect is fabulous! Very cool!
Thanks for watching!
That black makes the bowl pop! And the inlay is outstanding.
Thanks 😊
Hi, I don't do woodwook myself. But I love watching the way you can take a piece of wood and turn it into something so fantastic. You are amazing.
Thank you very much!
Viewers can learn so much more from you than woodturning. I once had a teacher when I was in college who told us that if we learned everything about one thing, we’d learn all there is to know. I can’t thank you enough.
Thank you very much!
It is a beauty. I was wondering about the wavy, burnt edges but they are very interesting. Nice work. Nice bowl.
Thank you very much!
I have been watching so many videos from start to finish, and I have learned so much! Not only a great artist but a great teacher.
Thank you very much!
What a beautiful bowl with a really nice inlay and a burnt edge it's cool. The wood is really lovely it's got some nice grain and the finish is awesome well done Jim. Amanda x
Thanks 😊
Jim, you knoted it out the park, looking at what you started with and to the end,man your a wood Ninja love your work brother !!!!
Thanks 🥷🏻 lol 🙏🏻
Great. 40 plus years of bowl making and I keep learning new ideas. thanks
Thanks!
burning the rim just looks so amazing and the result is just astonishingly beautiful
Thanks!

Thanks, I always try to reuse all my inlay material, so of it can be quite expensive.
wow very different. I hadn't seen inlay done until your channel. I really love the contrast of the light timber with the brass and the burnt edge. Just stunning
Thanks for watching
Looking back at older videos. Still as impressive as current ones. Very well done and your video production is outstanding. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Wayne, I’ve learned a lot during this process that’s for sure and thanks for watching!
Interesting and beautiful piece from your pre-resin days. I enjoy going back through some of your older work.
Thank you very much!
Shinny is my choice and I love the way it brings the bowl alive. Makes it like satin .
Thanks 😊
The burnt edge frames the bowl, making the maple pop. Such a neat idea and beautiful piece
Thanks 😊
Look at the beauty this bowl has that you use natural material and natural techniques to make it
Thanks 😊
Gorgeous bowl. I like the brass and branches inlay. Classy looking
Thanks Judith!
This bowl is magnificent! I love the burnt edge. I would never have thought of that myself! You have a great imagination! Another winner! 🎉
Thank you very much!
BEAUTIFUL BOWL INLAY.... I had never seen it done that way with tree branches.... Great detail of the process....Thanks again for the lesson!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was skeptical about the burnt edge but came out amazing as usual. Such a lovely piece!

Thanks for watching!
That fruit bowl turned out really beautiful, less is more! The brass shavings look cool! I thought that they wouldn’t be detectable, NOT! You can truly see it shine! Great job!
Thank you very much!
I just love this piece!! Just plain old wood.
Sure is, lol. Thanks for watching!
Oh yeah. I love it. I love everything about your work. Forget about resin, and PLEASE make it shiny! Just love it!
Thanks!
Beautiful bowl, Jim. Love the effect of the branches and brass shavings, everything ties in perfectly. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Thanks Tom!

Lol, thanks. I prefer to make food safe items, but in reality they probably never see food! Jim
Jim, that is so awesome! I never thought about using brass like that.
Thank you so much!
I love the resin projects. One of the reasons I first started watching. But damned if this isn't awesome!
Thanks 🙏
Beautiful as always! Nice pile of shavings in the background
There never seem to be any shortage of them, thanks
This bowl shines like a wooden diamond 💎
Thanks 😊
Well done Jim! I look forward to your videos each week!
Great, thanks!

Hi Jim, I ❤ when you burn that bowl. The black you get is very dark. 😍 I told you I see animals in your work. In the bowl is a red fox. 🦊
Lol. Thanks!
Hi Jim, I have been watching some of your previous video's, you are a truly great artist. Wow, the grain in the bowl is stunning and the brass and twigs are a great feature. Thanks for sharing

I’m sorry, I’m not sure what your asking, Jim.
Amazing! For me, there's a definite Klimt vibe to it. I envy the person who buys this!
Yes, there certainly is. Someone said this to me years ago and had no idea what they were talking about, lol.

Would love to see the effect of burning the end grain of the branches as well ... may not be possible given the effects on the brass, but the color contrast would be interesting

Thanks. I don’t think it would work because it would probably tend to burn and melt the CA. Jim.
