wow very nice piece of work your very talented and the first knife you brought out on camera was amazing I would like one a very nice wood carving knife
Finally got around to doing some miliput inlayed bowls , one same shape as this video but used one of your squiggly patterns . I think it looks great and has an Australian Aboriginal look . thanks again for your very good and instructional videos
Thank you very much. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. I am very pleased you have tried Milliput, it gives great results. Cheers, Jim
Well young Jim, a very well produced first video mate, packed full of interesting and useful information, your bowls, knives, skulls, in fact all your work looks superb. I am eagerly awaiting part two, as I will be trying this for sure, especially that Millipu putty is produced in God's Country :) Take care, subbed liked. Cheers Mike
Thanks Mike, I'm glad you liked it, sorry it is a bit long. I will try and make future videos shorter. I have posted the 2nd part. ua-cam.com/video/vtzsNiDMcqU/v-deo.html Thanks for subscribing Kind regards Jim Overton
Enjoyed working with the product, l found the needing hard on my thumb joint, so I tried folding and rolling it about 4" long easier. Fold and roll over and over, also faster. Thanks for the tip ....george
Glad you tried it George, it hurts my thumbs sometimes too ! I have also found that rolling into sausages and folding the sausage many times to be easier. All the best, Jim
Hi Jim, I just came over from Mike Waldts channel and wanted to say I thoroughly enjoyed these videos, definitely something that I'd like to have a go at. I love your carvings too, they are fabulous.
Thanks Daniel, it is well worth trying and the creative possibilities are endless. Make sure you mix it thoroughly and let it set overnight for best results. All the best, Jim
Hello Jim, only recently visited your site due to a tip off from Harry's woodcraft. I am totally new to turning and have watched all the gurus you mentioned, but your the first that I've seen using milliput and had no idea it could be used in turning, brilliant - so thanks for that and have just ordered some LOL! your presentations are top notch and make very easy listening and your creations are excellent, I'll be keeping an eye on you! LOL. Regards, Tony p.s. off to see part 2 now.
Thank you very much Tony, some of these early videos are a bit long winded. My more recent videos are much shorter and snappier. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Jim
wow, I just found your channel, Carl Jacobson recommended and let me tell you, you are a great really great woodturner artist. and I subscribed, I hope to see more videos like this. take care. Eme ---- >> Remember to Always Smile ☺ cheers from Dominican Republic.
Hi Jim! That's a great video my friend! I am going non stop to watch second part! :) In the Facebook group I participate "Amigos por el torno de madera" they have a montly challenge and for this month, it will be inlays. I think, if you do not mind, I may give a try to the milliput. I will probably make a video of it, which I will have to upload after the challenge, so that I can explain the process to the Spanish speaking community, there could also be an English version, but in any case, I would give you the credit for the idea! Thanks for sharing! Daniel
So this is the one that started it all... UTub's auto-play gave them to me in reverse order... ha. 1:38 that bowl looks well ceramic... nicely done; I think the faux-ceramic look works best with the lighter coloured woods. cheers
Thanks Mike, I'm glad you liked it, sorry it is a bit long winded but I had a lot to say. I have posted part 2 ua-cam.com/video/vtzsNiDMcqU/v-deo.html Hopefully my future videos will be shorter. Kind regards Jim
You create such gorgeous items. I love watching your work, a blank piece of wood and whatever 'raw' inlay material turn to an amazing piece of art. Do you sell any of your finished products? Or take commisions? Not that I could afford anything as beautiful at the moment, but maybe in the future, or as gifts. (Peter Brown from Shop Time sent me your way and OMG! Thank you Peter!)
Thank you very much, yes roughness does help which is why I don’t sand the groove, but Milliput is very sticky so you don’t have to worry too much. If the Milliput Inlay is to pass all the way through then I coat the sides of the groove with a thin layer of slow set epoxy resin just before placing the Milliput. Cheers Jim
Hey Jim. Your videos are great. You got me started on using Milliput. I do have a question, and if you discussed this somewhere I apologize for not seeing it. After you turned the recess for the milliput, you brushed the wood with something. What was that?
thank you very much Janice, I think in these earlier pieces I used to coat the recess with sanding sealer but I tend not to use anything these days. I occasionally may use a slow set epoxy resin if the inlay is going to be under stress ( as in if full thickness or as a rim ).
I applied some thinned down cellulose sanding sealer, probably not needed but I feel it gives a good dust free surface to stick the putty to and a slightly sharper edge to finish to. All the best, Jim.
Thanks Mark, the burner is a Peter Child pyrography unit and is now manufactured by Robert Sorby, Sheffield , England. It is available from the Peter Child website and several other online suppliers. Cheers, Jim

Thank you for your kind words. I will hopefully be setting up an Etsy shop in the near future to sell some of my pieces. Cheers, Jim
It is available in US, through amazon, or miliput website
Very nice Jim. would it help the Milliput to stick if the bottom of the groove was roughed up rather than smooth. Thanks. Montana Wood Art

@@JimsonMakes Thanks Jim. I've turned several bowls with your method and its been fun. !!!
Thank you for this fantastic idea. I can't mind Milliput in Canada so I've ordered the product from the U.K. today. What finish do you use?
I ordered my Milliput on line and it took ages to come. I love to find a local supplier
.
Are you in the UK ? Who did you order it off ? There are lots of very reliable suppliers, try someone else. Cheers, Jim
What were you applying to the grove at the end of the initial turning part (before you moved on to mixing the Milliput)?
I applied some thinned down cellulose sanding sealer, probably not needed but I feel it gives a good dust free surface to stick the putty to and a slightly sharper edge to finish to. All the best, Jim.
Jimson's Stuff OK, thanks, finding this pilliput series of videos really interesting, keep up the good work ;^>
I liked your burner. What brand/model is it?
Thanks Mark, the burner is a Peter Child pyrography unit and is now manufactured by Robert Sorby, Sheffield , England. It is available from the Peter Child website and several other online suppliers. Cheers, Jim

It is available in stores here in America. And it on Amazon so you can get it anywhere they ship
I think Hobby Lobby is the main US distributor Barry, and is certainly available on Amazon. Cheers, Jim
