Great way to show off the spalting. I love when you put a lot of things together with resin and then 'grind' off the 'unnecessary' parts. Cool piece. Thanks Jack 👍🏻
...spalted wood is my second favorite only losing out to burls...but it sure gives a ton of character to this piece of art!!!...sphere's to you...🍻 Matt
Wow, that’s fantastic. You can’t beat spalted wood I think because the patterns in the wood are always different and just beautiful and this really has shown off that beauty at its best🤗
@@JackMackWoodturning unfortunately not but I really do with Emma anybody who can turn wood like you can and create something really special out of it :-)
I"m not sure!! You do so many that are pieces of art! The amount of work you have put into this one, makes it, I think one of your best! Talk about time consuming!!
I can’t even imagine what this piece will be. A pile of sticks glued together? Round, hmmm. A wooden bowling ball? Oh, a pretty round thing on a stand. Quite unique. 😊🌹Nice.
@@JackMackWoodturning I'm watching from BRAZIL - city of ITU, State of São Paulo. Estou assistindo daqui do BRASIL - cidade de ITU, Estado de São Paulo.
May I ask ? Why put a resin pour under pressure ? Vacuum would both degas and force the resin into voids because the gas that was in the voids wouldn't be there anymore.
Pressure shrinks all air bubbles to microscopic size that can’t be seen. Once the resin cures it stays that way. Vacuum removes some of the air but never all of it. And pressure is required to make the remaining air invisible. 👍🏻
Mixed feelings on this one. Love the wood grain, the black resin and the longer parts of the view. Sadly, I had to watch at a faster speed. Thank you trypophobia.😂
@@JackMackWoodturningWhy is it unnecessary? Genuine question here, I don't know much about woodworking and that seems like a sensible concern to have.
This piece was a very specific request from a customer.. they sure do like to put me through the wringer. This was an engineering nightmare. (I make it look easy in the video 🤣)
It's come up great and yeah you did make it look easy,, but don't forget, next time you're having problems with a project give me a shout, I'll be more than willing to point you in the right direction😂😂 😂😂😂
The clear resin was a sealer on the dowels to stop them being dyed by the black resin. The black was then poured in 4 pours (although it looks like 2 on the video) because pouring it all at once would cause too much heat during curing, and it would create cracks throughout the whole piece. 👍🏻
What was the purpose of covering the individual sticks in epoxy before putting them in the rubber bands? I'm trying to figure it out but got nothing lol
It was order by a customer as a decorative object.. others call it art.. but as I made it I don’t think of it as art. I think art should have a meaning that the artist s trying to convey to anyone who views it. This is not that. But it is an object designed to be viewed and enjoyed. 👍🏻
Beautiful piece, but had to watch this video on mute. There is a high-pitched noise in your shop that comes through the video and really hurts my ears for some reason. (I thought it was the lathe when you sped up the video but you can easily hear it at the 9:25 mark where you aren't turning at that point.)
The sound you are referring to is my dust extraction. Unfortunately, I can’t really operate without it. A lot of people tune in for the ASMR aspect of the video’s so I like to keep the audio authentic. If you aren’t keen on the sound of the workshop, mute the video and put your favourite playlist on. What sort of music do you like?
@@JackMackWoodturning Ahh, thanks for explaining. That's unfortunate. I too enjoy the sound of the tools, but something about that dust extractor affects me for some reason. Appreciate the suggestion, but I'll just have to selectively mute as I watch.
@trumpetbob15 No worries man. I think A lot of viewers do play music as they watch. I made a conscious decision not to use music as everyone has different tastes. I’ll have a look into some multi-band compression for the frequency of the extractor. It shouldn’t be too hard to isolate. Thanks for watching buddy 😉
This piece was a custom creation . The end product is exactly what the customer wanted. I would love for you tell me a more efficient way to make this item and it look exactly the same. Because I spent weeks trying to work it out and every different approach leads to so many other issues that would end up wasting the entire piece. Also, just as an important side note. There is no waste in my workshop. Everything is used or reused and nothing leaves the workshop unless it’s in the form of a finished piece of work.
It’s a custom order. The customer feels it has purpose. Which is why they paid me to make it. You could say that from their perspective it’s purposes is decoration and from my perspective it’s purposes to make an income and from your perspective it’s purpose is to entertain through the video. So that feels like 3 clearly defined purposes. It has also caused us to engage in conversation which could be purpose number 4

Ha. Have I got you hungry for breakfast? 😂
@@JackMackWoodturning it's funny...I hadn't read the comments and I made breakfast-type comments...lol.

Thanks Jack 👍🏻
Thank you for watching! Did it turn out how you imagined?
This is too cool. Who would have thought that a bunch of sticks would be turned into a sphere! ❤
Haha thank you. Any ideas for my next video?

Cheers Matt.. Iv got some incredible spalted burls knocking about. Il make one into something for you soon.
From South Africa. I love to LOOK at your videos. Did some wood carving in my younger days. I am 86y now😊
Wow, that’s fantastic. You can’t beat spalted wood I think because the patterns in the wood are always different and just beautiful and this really has shown off that beauty at its best🤗
Thank you very much! You a wood worker yourself?
@@JackMackWoodturning unfortunately not but I really do with Emma anybody who can turn wood like you can and create something really special out of it :-)
Never disappointed, always fascinated the outcome. A masterpiece.
That’s very kind! So you’ve watched some of my other videos ? Is this a favourite?
@@JackMackWoodturning Yes, many of them. I can't pick a favorite!
One of the best pieces I've seen here. That's truly beautiful.
Have you watched any of my other videos?
@@JackMackWoodturning Yes, I have. It's been a while, but I just came across this one and was delighted :)
Beautiful piece of art. The spalted wood patterns creates an amazing design. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊 did it turn out how you thought it would?
Just, WOW!! Beautiful work, mate.
Thanks a lot!
That is a real conversation piece. ❤
Yes I agree. Is this something you would have in your home?
I’d love to see this with a water-blue resin. Then it would look like the earth!
That's absolutely beautiful. It has a slight Clarice Cliff feel to it.
Thanks J. Are you a collector?
Very cool piece!
Love the spalted maple!
Thank you, would you have something like this in your home?
Brilliant! I absolutely love this piece!
Thanks buddy
I like watching because you think outside the box! Always interesting.
Thank you 🙏 what would you like to see me turn next?
Brillant!! Love watching your work it makes me happy!!! Admire your craftsmanship as always!!
Thank you very much! Is this one your favourite you think?

Haha are you happy with the finish product then?
I was just imagining that as a bowling bowl. It would be insane. Amazing work as usual.
That turned out fantastic!!!
Thank you
Fantastic piece of artwork

This makes me want to start with a similar glue up but make it into a sculpture of a meteor shower, with each dowel being a metor.
I’d like to see that.

I’m sorry. I thought trypophobia was about holes.
@@JackMackWoodturning
It can be repetitive circles/holes. Still, it's worth the feeling for some videos - yours included!
Put a clamp on the dowel before you bandsaw it, so it doesn't spin and take your finger into the blade
@@gwcstudio aye.. or I could just do it the way I did. And not add unnecessary “safety precautions”
Maybe I'm missing something here but how would u use a bandsaw when the object you are cutting is clamped in place?
@@JackMackWoodturningWhy is it unnecessary? Genuine question here, I don't know much about woodworking and that seems like a sensible concern to have.
A great piece of work Jack, how do you think of these things ?
This piece was a very specific request from a customer.. they sure do like to put me through the wringer. This was an engineering nightmare. (I make it look easy in the video 🤣)

I love the wood. What kind is it?
Spalted beech.
also known by some as autograph wood
Amazing! Where do you get your inspiration?
They usually come to me in a dream 😂 what would you like to see me turn next?
@@JackMackWoodturning Oh, goodness, everything you do has been amazing! I will wait to see what your dreams come up with.
Why did you resin the sticks first, then do a double pour?
Nice work though 👍
The clear resin was a sealer on the dowels to stop them being dyed by the black resin. The black was then poured in 4 pours (although it looks like 2 on the video) because pouring it all at once would cause too much heat during curing, and it would create cracks throughout the whole piece. 👍🏻
👍👍👍

Nice sphere Jack. Where did you get the suction holder
Wow
This must have been incredibly tedious to set up. 😮
Looks like it was worth it though.
Wow beautiful piace ❤ how much cost
This was made as a custom order for a client. I’d not disclose that information.
Ok how much cost
Hey Jack! Do you have any tips for turning spheres? I'm now woodturning for a good couple years but i never manages to get a perfect sphere
👍👏👏
Thanks
What was the purpose of covering the individual sticks in epoxy before putting them in the rubber bands? I'm trying to figure it out but got nothing lol
That’s a sealing coat to stop them sucking up the black resin and discolouring 👍🏻
@JackMackWoodturning Ahhh right, got it. Thanks for answering 🙂
Nice work, also goid size pressure pot. What make of pressure pot is this please?😊
The pot is from total boat. You can find it on their website 👍🏻
Interesting, but what is the purpose of the object??
It was order by a customer as a decorative object.. others call it art.. but as I made it I don’t think of it as art. I think art should have a meaning that the artist s trying to convey to anyone who views it. This is not that. But it is an object designed to be viewed and enjoyed. 👍🏻
if all the cylinders were going to perfectly fit in the plastic tube, why do the rubberband step at all? great video but i’m just a little confused 😅❤
What kind of chuck is holding the sphere after you turned it? I’ve never seen one of these.
OK, I'm confused...why did you do 2:11 and then knock the resin off the bottoms?
That’s a sealing coat. Wood is porous so without the sealing coat it would suck up the black resin and dye the wood.
@@JackMackWoodturning of course...I didn't have my thinking cap on...no Wheaties yet....lol.
🤣😉
Drill 3 holes in it and you'll be ready to bowl.
Beautiful piece, but had to watch this video on mute. There is a high-pitched noise in your shop that comes through the video and really hurts my ears for some reason.

Mildly disappointed I didn't get to see it finally fit in that sphere-checker at multiple angles but it is a beauty.
Ha. I have footage of that. Il post it on instagram for you. It’s difficult to know what to include and what to omit.
@@JackMackWoodturning that is in effect the only reason I said something. I know it's hard to know what to put in what not to.
Let me know when it sells.
