Today's video:
Alright, let me first start by saying that, no, I do not believe this is the first ever segmented bowl with resin segments that's been turned and posted online. That said, I've been a fan of woodturners and resin artists on UA-cam for many years now, and in that time, I have yet to come across a single video that has tried to accomplish anything similar to the project I tackled in today's video. I'm sure someone somewhere in the world has done this, but I genuinely haven't been able to find an example. In fact, it's so rare (if it exists at all) that I started wondering if it was even possible at all; perhaps there was a challenge with this sort of project that I just wasn't seeing. After all, the greatest thing about segmented bowls is the possibilities that come along with using a variety of wood species, and the thought I've had for years is, "If different coloured wood looks this amazing, surely including some resin segments as well would be even more eye-catching! How has no one already done this?" With this in mind, I decided to give this challenge a shot. I first constructed some moulds out of form core that were 80 cm long, 1.5" wide, and 0.75" deep to essentially make resin planks. I then filled the moulds with SquidPoxy's Squid Cast epoxy resin dyed with blue, green, and pink alcohol inks. Once cured, I demoulded one of the blue planks and cut out segments at 4 different sizes (to make 4 different rings). I then cut out the same sized segments from a plank of maple wood. To ensure the 67.5 degree angles were as precise as possible, I used the fence on my disc sander. Once all the segments were cut and sanded, I glued them all together with wood glue for the wood on wood joints and 5-minute epoxy for all the rest. Once these joints were cured, I sanded the top and bottom sides of the rings to make them flat, applied a thick layer of Alumite Clear Cast (a faster curing resin), and clamped all the rings together. After waiting 2 days to ensure the resin was fully cured, I mounted the blank on my lathe, turned it down to the shape I wanted, and wet sanded the bowl up to 3000 grit. I then finished it with some microfine Yorkshire Grit and parted the bowl from the lathe.
If I were to do things differently:
If you've read the paragraph above, you can probably gather that this was mostly a proof of concept project. I'm really happy with how the bowl came out, but in the future, I'd definitely like to try some different things. First, I really rushed my planning process when it came to the segment sizes. I really didn't spend any time trying to calculate what sizes I would need for the bowl shape I was going for, and in the end, the bowl came out very tall (as you can see). I will definitely plan things out more in the future. Second, I'd love to revisit this soon and simply incorporate more segments, more wood species, and perhaps more resin segments (I already have pink and green planks ready to go!). I really think that the possibilities for this sort of project are endless, and I'm excited to test some of these out in the near future.

I like the look.
Really nice work. Looks smooth as a mirror ! Nicely laid out as well. Sweet !
Thank you, Jason!!
Dude that was absolutely awesome. What a creative idea. As always, awesome work!! 💪💪💪
Thanks, Rob! Really appreciate it!
Turned out beautiful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, Dennis!
Yes this has been done before by Olivier Gomis several times
My god, you build some of the most beautiful pieces.
Thank you so much! That's very nice of you to say!
I've seen video by a turner in the US who did this same thing. I think his resin segments were clear or pale blue but I can't remember. It was a bigger bowl also Sorry, don't remember the channel name either but I think he lived in Florida. Jack Mack did a "bowl from a board" project where the board was made of apple green resin strips and wood.
Your bowl looks good! Stuart
Gorgeous!
Thank you!
Your proof of concept seemed to work out really great. Very Cool bowl. I am very new at wood turning. I have never seen anyone try that either. I am a Carpenter though. I noticed you use a saber/jig saw to do your cutting. Other people seem to use a chop/miter saw or table saw to make their segments for their segmented turning. . I bet that is where the answer lies. I have never used epoxy/resin (yet hope too soon) . From all the saw use I have done over decades I am going to bet it does not cut well on either a table saw or a chop saw. Might even shatter the way it seems to chip on some of the videos I have seen. Could even be just the blades, possibly a specialty blade like a masonry or metal blade would work better on an epoxy/resin. Just a few thoughts on how to cut that epoxy/resin and why it isn't done, or you have never seen it done.
Great points, John, I hadn't considered that. And you're right, it does tend to chip (to be totally honest with you, I don't particularly enjoy turning resin. I love how the final products look, but turning pure wood is just so much more relaxing). I'm hoping to make my first table in the next few weeks, just a small coffee table to start, and I need to figure out how to get the legs attached. I will likely be screwing them in with bolts, but I've heard bolts/screws can crack hardened resin. Learning one step at a time!
@@formanwoodworking Coffee table out of Resin ? You could try anchors in the resin to receive the bolts, maybe a sleeve in the resin to slide the bolts through and screw into a wooden leg. Or maybe dowls with 5-minute epoxy to secure the dowls to the resin? There are all kinds of Fastners you could investigate. Maybe research Epxoy/ Resin counter tops for some ideas?
Can't believe you use a Sabre saw to cut the wedges.
Está muy bonito, la crítica constructiva es que fuera más delga la pared del cuenco, por lo demás lindo!
Thanks for sharing, nice Piece and interesting process. Full View and Like 👍
Awesome, thanks for the support, Allen!!
Looks awesome. Prefer no music. Liked and subbed
Thank you, Victor! Appreciate the support immensely!
❤
Could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me the name of the first song on this video. I'd be forever grateful.
P.s. awesome work 😁🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That looks amazing! I'm just recently getting into woodturning and the only thing I don't know is how to mount the wood to my clamps to start turning it. Subbed!
Thank you so much for the support, I really appreciate it! And what sort of attachment do you currently have for your head stock? Face plate? Scroll chuck? Maybe I can give you a few tips!
@@formanwoodworking Oh shoot. I only have a self centering chuck. I was just trying to tighten everything in to that but I realized it doesn't really hold everything steady, especially if it's smaller.
Ah, I see. Yeah, I unfortunately haven't used a self-centering chuck myself yet (although I think the chuck I use for my pen blanks might be considered a self-centering chuck?), but I believe you can turn entire pieces with them. If it helps at all, this is the scroll chuck I use: www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08L8VWK86/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm a novice myself at woodturning, but to date, I haven't had any issues with this chuck. It's been real steady and stable for me.
@@formanwoodworking I appreciate it! Can't wait to see more stuff you make
...a ton of prep...but what a beautiful result!...👍
Thank you!
Have you attempted to dye/stain wedges blue or purple before gluing. I'm contemplating trying it out on maple wedges.
I haven't tried that yet, George, but it's been on my mind. Definitely will at some point!
👌🏼... 🤩
Good idea
Thank you!
When cutting the trapezoids, why not use a mitre saw with a stop? Your production time would drop drastically for the same extremely slick result?
I actually don't have one at the moment :D Hoping to add one to the shop soon though
@@formanwoodworking inst it funny how fate requires us to use imperfect methods sometimes in the pursuit of artistic endeavor. Makes the results all the sweeter
@@benholioo I suppose so, but sometimes I wish I had the speedier option, haha. Like sanding! Good lord, I wish I could snap my fingers and my projects would be instantly sanded and ready for finish!!
Do another one in red resin
I'll add it to the list!
Very cool
Full view and subbed
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the support!
Please what is the name of the first song in this video 😢🙏🙏🙏🙏💋

Thanks so much for the support! I really appreciate it!!!
No no no no no no no stop the music totally ruined experience
