Thank you! Art isn't always meant to be used for something. Sometimes its only meaning is admiration. But this is hollowed out with a food safe finish. Maybe a cookie jar? 😊
Right! It's amazing how smoothly the glue-up went once I was able to zero in on the different degrees with my saws. The pieces fit together naturally 😁
You, my friend, are beyond being an artist. You have achieved magician level. So far, everything I've watched you make is pure magic. Please keep mesmerizing us with your awesome and magical work. Fred
Fantastic! But I beg of you, if you’re going to put your fingers so close to the table saw blade, please get a SawStop! I’m looking forward to watching your videos.
I have an idea that might be of interest for you. A profesionnal told me it would be difficult to produce for a market. But doing one for a video might be possible. At least worth a try IMHO.
Thank you for checking out my video ☺️ Honestly I'm not looking to produce for a market, I have a great full time day job as a lead carpenter. In the words of a professional artist "The meaning of life is to find your gift, the purpose of life is to give it away" Pablo Picasso
Rather than flatten all the points just because 1 point was “injured,” I would have preferred to just replace that point, perhaps with a contrasting wood. 🤷♂️
That's a great idea 💡 I didn't like getting rid of the points either, but it wasn't just one they all had little indentations from the clamping method I used. I have since then found a way to clamp the points together without damaging them. I do love your idea of a contrasting wood though
Hi I'm new to your channel, I like what I see, it's definitely different. My only critique would be it was a shame you had to round off the tips, I thought it lost the sharpness of the piece. Look forward to seeing more though. 😊
Welcome to my channel 😀 I totally agree with you on flattening the points. I need to figure out a different way to clamp the points together. I really appreciate your feedback. Thank you 😊
You're correct. I'm a well seasoned carpenter of many decades and am comfortable with my operations on the table saw, but I should for those who are not as experienced demonstrate the use of a push stick. And set a good example! I appreciate your concern and comment ☺️
Hello my young friend, I just watched this twice, the second time with my wife. This is the most amazing and complex lamination that I have ever seen. I can't even understand how you thought of it, and the precision of the cuts and the lamination amaze me and you know that I am not easily impressed. Bravo! I would love to see some still pictures of the finish piece, please. Idea - maybe a second sightly larger version with identical top and bottom finials/handles, and then sawn in half at the horizon to form two identical bowls. These would have spectacular inner patterns and still be a box. Bravo and a well earned tip of my hat from a friend and fellow turner in California. Can't wait to see what's next.....must be something in the water in Colorado or maybe it's the altitude, hehehehe...🤔🙂🙌
Thank you so much for all the support you have shown me. I'm in progress now of building further from this design to create a dual model with segments inserted to create a solid surface inside and out of a simple shaped bowl
That is a beautiful piece of work! I can't imagine the chutzpah required to start turning after all the work getting it glued up. Nice job!
Thank you very much! ☺️
All I can add is to say that all of those angles looked like spinning spikes of death - I’m so glad that you were able to keep your knuckles away 😂
Thank you 😊 I'm glad that I was able to stay clear of the spikes too. That wouldn't be a good way to start the weekend 😁
My hat is off - Kudos. Thanks for not adding music to your work.
Sweet. I love feedback like this 😊
Wow. Your patience and planning and precision are amazing. What an awesome project
Thank you very much! Took almost three weeks in my free time to go from thought concept to reality. Glad that you enjoyed it 😊
@@donavenzulian I certainly did enjoy, keep up the amazing work.
Beautiful art, but I can't figure out how I can use it

Amazing precision

Thank you 😌 I'm currently working on a new magic trick that should knock your socks off

Noted! 🙂 Thank you for checking out the video

All of the superlatives have already been used up by earlier commenters. Amazing blend of art, craftsmanship and patience.
I love to hear people's thoughts on my projects 😁 Thank you for taking time to comment and checking out my video 😊
A shame you have to show such dangerous table saw etiquette though, hope you keep all your fingers.
You're correct. I'm a well seasoned carpenter of many decades and am comfortable with my operations on the table saw, but I should for those who are not as experienced demonstrate the use of a push stick. And set a good example! I appreciate your concern and comment ☺️
You really do like logistical nightmares. My head spins when I wonder how I could recreate your art! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much 😊 I'm in the process of building off this design further
I agree
Very impressive work, looks great.
Thank you very much! 😊
I love it!

Well mate, that would have to be one of the best turning i have ever seen. Thank you for sharing it Donaven.🤠
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁 The ideas blooming from this design I think are going to be pretty cool 😎
Wow!
😁
