- One cube becomes a vase with 6 wings and 3 feet!
Thank you all so much for watching! Yes, another month rolls by and my hopes for a quicker project turnout were dashed... but that's my life right now. On the bright side, I got a new camera after the old one stopped focusing on objects more than 5 feet away. Let me know if you like the new picture!
This is my 29th filmed project. I had been wanting to try another cube theory project, but the amount of wasted wood from the typical cube turning drives me nuts. So, I chose to waste resin instead... literally. It started with a horrible miscalculation, in which I mixed exactly twice as much resin as I needed, and when I realized I had a bucket of resin left over and a ticking clock, it was too late to do anything about it. In fact, I tried mixing in more pigment and before I knew it the mixer pulled out a glob of curing resin. Check out my Instagram (@adamsen_woodcraft) for the pic. Anyway, the project went fairly easily until I decided to use lacquer as the final finish. Well, it's getting too cold in Maine for lacquer to cure properly, and it got somewhat cloudy. I don't think the final finish is horrible, but it isn't ideal. I simply ran out of the time and patience required to fix it.
Again, thank you all for watching. I appreciate your comments, even though I can't respond to all of them. You are the best audience anyone could wish for!

I never thought I would find myself going down the rabbit hole of watching woodturning UA-cam videos but the pieces I have witnessed on your channel have been nothing short of spectacular!
It's awesome ain't it! I want a lathe so bad...lol
Same here. I'm hooked on these videos
Yeah
alternate title: man makes a cube and then makes it not a cube
Y e s-
Boom
cuben't
Another alternate-FUKIN AMAZING, AWESOME SKILLS!
Lol))) it was a large cube and become a small adorable...no-cube))))
I am completely in awe. To be able to "see" where to cut when the spinning blurs the shape so that it looks you're cutting in nothing... It is simply awesome, how you must see the final shape in your mind... Beautiful... It's more than craftsmanship, it's pure artistry.
Collect wood shavings separately from different types of trees. Backfill in layers or whatever you want, fill with epoxy, make a vase or lampshade or something else
I was just thinking the same thing!
Please show us what you can do with chips and flakes !!
With other turners I can usually figure out what they are doing and how it will turn out. Your work is quite different. I can never seem to work out what the finished project will look like. That is not a complaint but a complement. I love your work and I love waiting until the end to see what it is that you've done. You are wonderfully creative. I tip my hat to you sir!
Exactly! I watched him do it, yet I still don't know HOW he did it!
Exactly! The mystery of it is wonderful. Completely worth every moment of suspense.
One of the most dangerous lathe projects I've ever seen. Clearly you know your tools!
This was the most beautiful piece I have ever seen turned on a lathe. It made me wish my mom was still alive this was the epitome of her kind of art. My parents home was filled with it. When she saw something that caught her eye, like I know this would have, she bought it no questions asked. 💙🤍🖤💙🤍🖤
Advert in the middle of a wood turning video: enjoy a beautiful outdoor Japanese park without leaving the US!
Me, in Germany, during a pandemic lockdown: I don’t think I’m quite the target audience
Me, in Poland: huh, same
Denk ich auch jedes Mal
Me in El Salvador: same same
Get "Brave"... Stop watching ads...
I don't think it really matters were we all are in the world when there is amazing wood turning like this to be watched. I myself I am in the uk not even half way though a 12 hour night shift and I can safely say watching talented guys like this is definitely the thing to do to pass the time away. I know things are apparently getting better but wherever you are stay say everyone
Just when you thought you've seen everything that's come off a lathe, you stumble across this gem. Uniquely beautiful!
Thank you!
Another cinematic and artistic masterpiece...absolutely stunning, my friend...very much enjoyed the watch!
Way to appreciate it, Lesley.
It’s time for the unexpected. We in the age of Aquarius ♒️ .
That cube might be one of the most viscerally terrifying things I've seen turned on a lathe. Maybe it's the corners moving so rapidly?
My gut is telling me to put my hands on it as it spins.
@@imaginewagons3777 your gut, sir, does not have your best interests at heart.
This may be the most beautiful piece I have ever seen done on a lathe. Your work is nothing short of inspirational.
I have no idea why this was recommended to me, but it is certainly fascinating to watch.
Your artistic ability blows my mind! I can’t fathom how you envision and execute such creative perfection. Absolutely outstanding piece and your videos are amazing! I thoroughly enjoy watching.
Thank you so much!
The more he cut it down...the more I was like “nooooo, it looks good the way it is” but the finished product was worth the anxiety lol
I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one going through this anxiety 😂
Just like watching any Bob Ross episode.
DITTO To That!!!
I screamed nooooo like three different times until I just let it go.
I felt the exact same way
By far... The most complex type of wood turning I've seen.
From a cube to a 3 sided dual layer which is also another 3 side and then another 3 side and then a circle.... Yep I also got confused.
I'm admiring your level of experience and visioning to see this kind of piece of art from a cube! Well done sir. Salute to you
Are you freaking kidding me!!! That was totally unexpected and seriously beautiful! Can't wait to see more amazing projects from this site!!!
This is amazing, beautiful and inspiring! I heard about your accident and you are in our prayers for a speedy recovery. You are a true gift to woodworking and art.
Bless you for stopping now and then to let the rest of us spatially-deficient get an idea of where you are going..! Truly a piece to have rather than use..!
someone else mentioned it, but the parts where it seems like you're shaving through air? breathtaking. this entire video is enthralling to watch -- you're clearly a master. phenomenal craftsmanship!
Thank you dirk, very cool!
Carving beautiful wings that are barely a blur to the eye that accurately is amazing craftsmanship. This piece should be in a museum to help inspire everyone in the ability of the human spirit.
Absolutely amazing ability...
UN believable !!! This is stunning ! Not only are you an extremely gifted wood turning artist .. but a talented film maker as well .. Blown away ... !
So strangely beautiful. I don't know how your mind can conceive such a creation, from a block of wood and resin. I heard about your fall (from Kim Tippin) and I would like to lift you up before God, and ask that you be fully healed of your injuries, in the name of Jesus. Amen. God Bless you and keep you, David.
I only know the difference between art and crafts when I see it. You do ART.
I was so hypnotized by the whole process and awaken at the end to witness the beauty of your product. Amazing.
Cheers Rob!
Wow! The resin adds a whole new dimension to the wood and I really like what you did for the base.
Last week I turned a bowl just like this out of cedar. But, I turned the bottom flat. I wish I had seen this video to do the same. And, I did not use resin. Now, I need to look at doing another bowl using resin. My cedar bowl is just a hunk of wood that looks nice, but yours is much more interesting. Thanks for the new idea and inspiration. I’ll send ya pictures once I do another in the next few days. Now, off to Dallas to buy some resin.
BTW...I still standby my past comments that you are definitely turning into one of the premier wood turners. You always turn something interesting. And your video intros are wonderful. God has blessed you with some nice talents. I am happy to see that you are not letting them go to waste.
Another cinematic and artistic masterpiece...absolutely stunning, my friend...very much enjoyed the watch!
Oh my goodness. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely beautiful.....but then again....every single one of your pieces of art are.....well done David.
Thank you Stuart!
Dude... This has to be the coolest, most beautiful thing I've ever seen come off of a lathe!
This piece belongs in a freaking art museum, THATS how good it is!!!
I agree it should be preserved. I believe it should be shown what will be considered old craftsmanship in 100 years.
Hi from France, this is a very very uncommon state of the art design! Very well done! Good job! With a very few little mods in the process you could obtain a higher designed and finished model who could pretend to be exposed in the best placed of design in the world. You are almost touching to the sky ! So nice to see that !👍❣️
Can't even believe this, this piece kind of made me emotional. Your art.. it's just incredible, man.
You may not be totally satisfied, however, I think this is a stunningly beautiful piece of art. Your designs are always interesting and would start conversations
I appreciate you sharing your journey on UA-cam and always enjoy your videos
Thank you for sharing 😉
Cheers! I really appreciate that! ✌️
Morning David, well that was fun I bet to turn!!!....going to have to start calling you “ Picasso David”!!!...all kidding aside, that is a beautiful piece of art and work you did. Great design and color choices to compliment that maple burl. Good casting job, and with that was glad to see you finish it off the way you did. Amazing work David. Keep it up my friend...👍👍

Fantastic art. I love seeing this in real time. Your precise and delicate cuts are very informative. The videography, editing and soundtrack are also the best. It's a wonderful pleasure to watch your craftsmanship and art.
I love the unexpected. I'm a weaver, and the grid-like structure of threads on a loom does not want to produce curves, so that's what I love to do: make curves on a loom. Here is the polar opposite. A lathe doesn't want to make corners and angular wings. But here you've done just that. And what glorious wings!!
Holy moly! How did you do that? How did you even THINK of that? That's not just wood-turning, that's not just great craftsmanship....that is ART! That is the most unique, creative, and gorgeous pieceI've ever seen. Kudos, sir!
Thank you! ✌️
"Thanks for watching"
- No, thank you for doing, what you're doing and sharing it with us!
I wish you could hear me, applauding everything about this. The imagination, the skill, the colours, the beauty, the wood, the shape, the way the light interacts, and did I mention the skill? I’m in awe.
Thank you so much, Mary!
Wow, that's different, and beautiful !! Nice job David !!
As always David your turning is absolutely beautiful. Such a beautiful piece. Gorgeous, Gorgeous, Gorgeous.
I always look forward to your next turning project.
At a loss of words. Excellent workmanship!!
An absolutely incredibly beautiful object was formed from that. Really great job!
Cheers Seppo!
This is definitely one of the most stunning pieces I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with us!
David, I think you've broken my mind with this one. Watching a cube being morphed into this end project was amazing! I love it! 💜
This piece (vase?) is spectacular! Do you sketch out your work ahead of time or just look at the wood & see what’s waiting to come out?
This is truly an amazing piece! I'll admit I skipped to the end after the first few minutes because I simply couldn't conceptualize what you were attempting to do, then after I saw the result I went back and watched the whole thing! Really cool and some truly amazing and advanced technique you showed in getting that result, well done!
I love seeing a wood turner go outside of the box when creating something. This is such a remarkable piece of work. I’d love to see more of this kind of stuff on UA-cam. A lot of creators seem to be stuck in a rut, but you sure are not. Again I love it.
Thanks so much Gail!
@@DavidAdamsen You’re welcome. I have an idea that I wS hoping I’d see one day, but never have. A tiered dip and chip bowl. A bowl that has an attached dip cup at the top.... all in one. (-c < sorta like that. Maybe wood with a bright blue and gold resin???? Then coat it with resin after so the dip doesn’t absorb into the wood. I am a creative minded person but I don’t turn wood sadly.😟 Anyways I’ve looked at your work and you are creative minded yourself.
I never watch your videos and don't think "That is amazing and stunning!".
This piece is yet another one of those wonderfully thought out and executed works of art we are grateful that you share with us.
Thank you.
Thank you Mac. I am always learning. ✌️
That is absolutely STUNNING! You are truly amazing sir! This should be in an art gallery! I've never seen anything like this.... thank you for allowing me to enjoy the making of this masterpiece! 😊❤👍
I’ve watched this 10 times…..can’t get over how extraordinary his technique is. Great photography, beautiful results.
Absolutely mind boggling from start to finish. Beautiful job.
That piece is exquisite! Unique in form and design. I love to see artists think outside the box (no pun intended). 👍❤
I'm not able to come up with a single word to say how much I love this piece.👍👋👏👍
Thanks David!
Now THIS is a dude with some talent. Who on earth would have realized that you could get a shape like THAT by lathing down a cube, much less actually do it? VERY impressive.
You know it's a good woodturning video when you watch the whole damn thing, replay bits, and STILL have a hard time understanding exactly what just happened.
Stunning. I could not comprehend the outcome of the piece as you were making it.
That is amazing! I never would have guessed when you started, that it would've turned out like that. Nice!
Thanka Scott!
Wow !
Mind blown !
To have the ability to see that within the cube and artistry to bring it out.
Brilliant ! Well done !
i’ve watched a lot of wood and resin turning on youtube…a whole lot. this might be my favorite one i’ve ever seen. it’s definitely up there. mind blowing and jaw dropping, like all your videos.
best turning channel on here by leaps and bounds.
Wow, thank you!
Very much appreciated the video and your artistic vision.
Just curious, how many design changes took place as the piece progressed?
Without doubt, the most incredible and most beautiful creation I have ever seen leaving a lathe. The forethought, the design and the absolute steady handed craftsmanship that went into this blows my mind. At every stage, I thought WOW, leave it at that..then you just kept excelling yourself! I felt myself sweating, the more fragile it became, thinking one little slip now could be disastrous! Outstanding work. Well done, Sir. Well done! 👏👏👏
Thank you Matt!
Halfway through, I thought I might be having a stroke because I couldn't wrap my mind around what I was seeing. Then, David, you presented a breathtaking work of art! I love the free-floating fragments of the burl suspended in the resin in the finished piece!
...an "ABSOLUTE" work of Art. The skill to create this "masterpiece" is just "OUTSTANDING".
That was a legendary display of skills. Hats off mate 🙌.
Amazing skill, but what happens to carved out parts? Pretty sure they not reusable.
My girl has been "gone " for 2 years. She loved your stuff. Thanks David.
The videography combined with the artistry is simply astounding!
Thanks!
When woodturnig becames Art, David is there! Regards from Italy
Thank you! ❤️
Beautiful! It really should be in an art gallery!
Thank you!
Watching resin turn is so cathartic
When I realized that cubes have 8 corners, I went full on "hold up."
Why am I surprised it exists though
Update: *Oh.*
Hah yeah, that threw me for a loop too. I watched through the whole thing and still was "wait how did it go to three corners" before going back and noticing that the offset did that.
That's one of the best, most unique turned pieces I've seen. Amazing work.
Your videos are so wonderfully soothing, and the products you create are lovely. I feel your sound design really deserves commendation, because you've picked the music choices well, and you found a wonderful balance for the sound of the lathe. Most other woodturners, the sound of the tools against the wood is grating to the ear, but you've managed to find a sweet spot with it.
(All that, and you have notably sexy hands, but that's secondary to the quality of your work.)
I was surfing you tube and found your videos. I find them very relaxing and peaceful. Your work is gorgeous and the videography is exceptional. I subscribed and am going to start binge watching your channel. As Joshua said below, your work is spectacular,
That's insane. Out of all the youtube woodturner channels this has got to be my favorite. Can never figure out what you are making and I love it.
Now that's how to spend time in lockdown! Beautiful!
I literally just watched you make this and I'm still like ".... Witchcraft!!!!"
WOW 🤩 Absolutely stunning piece 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
THIS is a STUNNING piece of art! The thumbs down people probably dislike Picasso, too. But, WE ALL LOVE YOUR WORK!!!!!
Thank you so much Rachel!
This is amazing 👍
Hai
The most stunning piece that I've ever seen created on a laithe.
This has blown me away. I've been watching more and more of your videos just because they are interesting and soothing. Well that and your work is amazing. This though, this I was not expecting; it is fabulously creative. I love it. It showcases your talent, but also your ability to think way outside the box. I love it.
Your works on here are so very different from what I've seen many other woodturners to. Moreover, when I go back to your other videos, I can clearly see you approach each piece as an artist, rather than just a project. You go back, change things, mess around a bit until it feels right.
Subbed.
Thanks I truly appreciate that!
That's an incredible outcome, well done
Thank you for showing us this beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Once again I am just stunned!
David I never cease to be amazed at your artwork. Thanks for the c=video and all the hard work editing that goes with it! Peace be with you! Rich
Thank you so much Rich!
very very nicely done David
Thank you for allowing us to be part of your creations
wow, that is so awesome! thank you for sharing your art.
This was an ambitious undertaking and the results were just AMAZING!
This actually got me to say out loud, to myself, “That’s incredible.” Nicely done
David, thank you for a 15 minutes of woodturning art!
The new camera picture is just fine. As for the wings going in different directions.... I'm still trying to get my head around that. Like the colours in the resin and I have subbed to Instagram, just had to have a look at the issues you had.
All I can say about the finish is that it looks pretty good from this side of youtube.
Cheers John! If it isn't one thing it's another, but I really appreciate your support! Have an amazing weekend!
What a great mind bending project! Love the thought process. Looks great!
Hi David, I have watched you turn 2 of these now and on both occasions I have thought, never in a month of Sunday's will I ever be able to do that. It is just astonishing David. When you were pouring the resin I though this is going to look amazing. I wasn't wrong. Brilliant David. Take care. Cheers, Huw
Came back to love this all over again. ❤️
Thanks Mary!
Amazing work, turned out beautiful..:))
I would never have guessed that the original shape that masterpiece came from was originally a cube! :D Very well done!
Earth meets Cosmos! Incredible. I just watched you make this and I still can’t understand how you made it! I call that magic! I love how the two disparate materials look like they are simultaneously attracted and repelled by one another. All that tension captured in the wavy line of the living edge of the wood. Choosing to put the blue on the top makes it “heavenly” whereas had it been on the bottom, we might be led to think more of a cork on the ocean, perhaps. Just stunning! Congratulations!
one word ...... FANTASTIC !!!!!!
I cannot find the words to describe this. Thank you for sharing!
Cheers Shaun!
