    It's nice to see some of your older work. :) before you found out how much your freeing of your silliness draws us in, and makes things more bearable. Thank you for becoming more yourself over time. You are a beautiful human being.

    I love that you share your creative process with us. A lot of makers only show tried-and-true projects that they're sure will turn out perfect. It's really refreshing to watch someone just work through unusual pieces and experiment with this and that to just see what happens, and I love the pieces you make. That gold flake is a really cool effect here.

    Hi Nick. Like that came out very nice with the gold and the dark wood, but what I like about you is that you never hide much, when a project does not go right the first time. You show what goes wrong and then how can I use it in another way as we all have too. Thanks. Bob from Kent England.

    I’ve got a lathe, and the basic set of tools to do spindles...but that’s not my bag! I want to create all the beautiful things I have planned in my head, with wood and resin, or just resin. Could you slap together a wee tutorial showing us what tools you use on the lathe for these projects?? Prrrrretty please!! I can’t wait to get my claws into a good resin/wood project, and I want to make sure my current tools are adequate!!

    My dad cast a lot of gold leaf back in the 1960-70s. He had in down to make them all well suspended in the resin. With out over loading it. Also he would suspend many objects in different items he made. Wish he was still alive so I could ask him how he did his castings.

    We found you by accident but what a happy mistake! It was so much fun to watch you process the changes you made in order to continue your project and turned out SPECTACULAR!! My father is a woodworker, and second generation luthier so I spent many hours with him watching him create and re create things. The gears in his head always turning everything we had was homemade and made from wood. Toys, furniture, pill holders, valentine cards, clamps, ironing board, everything! And I loved them ALL! Keep up the great work and having fun. We will be watching u and the joy of creating you bring forth. Thank you!

    Love it - but thought I was going mad with the repetitive musak. Every time I muted it - I'd miss one of yur funnies though :)

    Every time I see a piece he does , I don't understand how anyone can not like it. I don't get it? Everything he does is incredible.....

    Some ebony would have looked a bit cleaner.
    Those edges on the middle part is throwing me off a bit.
    But overall a really beautiful piece.

    That's really beautiful and the gold leaf really sets it off. I really enjoyed watching. My dad was really great with wood as well. Before his cancer he'd spend hours out in his workshop and he also use to carve birds and wildlife. I honestly don't think there wasn't anything he couldn't do.
