  • Woodturning - In this video I fill walnut shells with Forever Glow pigment and then cast them in Designer Epoxys new color pigment blood. I then combine them two awesome maple burl rough outs to make one of the most interesting hollow forms that I've made to date! Please like and share, thanks!

    Absolutely stunning mate..well done..love your stuff..always inspiring me.
    Update on the new lathe..i have now bought a steady rest, the coring jig, a hollowing rig and a shed load of carbide tools.
    For the love of god, don't ever meet my wife!!!.....🤣🤣

      You're not the only one that's followed Jim's recommendations for turning tools. Between the Oneway vacuum chuck system and coring system and a couple of the Hunter tools he's recommended, I think I could have bought a new truck. The good news is, they all work as advertised and were worth the investment, but Jim better not meet my wife either.

    I really love the walnut shell faces. I really like all the ones you've done with shells and pinecones and so on. I feel like they have more character because of the way you see them differently (walnut shell "faces," pinecone "flowers," etc.). Such a beautiful piece this week!

  • @danawrigleywalkingstickand5677
    @danawrigleywalkingstickand5677 11 місяців тому +15

    Definitely one of the wildest pieces you've done. Been anxiously awaiting this since you posted the teaser the other day, and as always it was well worth the wait.
    The nuts kind of look like individual pictures from a CAT scan showing different levels through the skull.

      Right? What a pairing of two gorgeous burls, and then the walnut sections, and the resin bringing it all together - with a little extra zazz via colour, glow, & sprinkles! And that narrow collar piece is such a beautiful piece made with exemplary skill! (I hope I'm using that word right. Brain fog!)

    Very cool!!! I love the way the walnut shells create a sort of rotoscope effect.

    Man, that's a lot of prep, but was it ever worth it. What a gorgeous piece. And you're absolutely right about the chatoyance.....spectacular! At the risk of sounding redundant, I don't think there's one of your videos that hasn't provided with a tip or good idea. Thanks.

    This one is very very cool. What a good idea - you obviously put so much time and effort into placing those walnut shells individually and then sealing them with the UV resin but the results speak for themselves. Thanks for sharing - all the best!
