    Well, I'll be! Aside from the beautiful vessel you created, the "whole lotta shakin' goin' on" sequence truly brings out the concept of balance ...👏🏼👏🏼

    You are a refreshing change from other woodworking videos that have far too much love for epoxy. Your approach is definitely the creative one, and your results are amazing.

    The simple lines accentuate all the irregularities. Just beautiful.

    Okay, I’m STILL laughin’ over the whole earthquake/lipstick scene…that was BRILLIANT! 😎

    • @zahirmamdani
      @zahirmamdani 2 роки тому +1

      Initially I was a bit confused, did it just go into an advert. Made me smile, re watched it. 😂

    • @bwrightaway2877

      Same here. I was watching this at work and everyone looked at me when I busted out laughing.

    • @zahirmamdani
      @zahirmamdani 2 роки тому +1

      One thing though, the noise and vibration that it would have made would be really intense. No joke about that.

      You got a good gal there to play along with the lip stick scene. I’m still chuckling over that. 😂😎

    Really enjoyed the off-balance result at the beginning! Thanks for the giggle!

  • @knut3339
    @knut3339 2 роки тому +35

    Very nice work!
    What I like best is that you didn't use epoxy. That's always the killer for me with videos like this.

  • @blueteeth.spooker
    @blueteeth.spooker 2 роки тому +17

    The beginning of this video was one of the funniest ever - Brilliant!! Not funny for you at the time, but a genius bit of editing for us to laugh at.
    And once again, you produced a really lovely piece of work, Bravo and best wishes, Olivier

    There just aren’t enough turning videos with “lipstick interludes”… Loved that.
    I also love those round “butterfly” plugs. Great result!

  • @carlspringle9342
    @carlspringle9342 2 роки тому +3

    Beautiful piece, but really loved the earthquake lipstick part. I'm still LMAO.
    Thanks for a great laugh. 😂🤣😀

    Brilliant, and unique! The plugs not only strengthened the piece, they also gave it that special character! As always, extremely well done.

    All your work is amazing but the ones like this without symmetry are my favorites. The hidden designs and "imperfections" give the piece such a great personality.
    And that lipstick cutscene was hella funny!

  • @williamfawkes8379

    Amazing that the tree grew little circles inside.

  • @DougMilleratWoodSpunRound
    @DougMilleratWoodSpunRound 2 роки тому +12

    Lovely shape. Love how you used the plugs along the cracks. Also like that you didn’t quite line up the grain. It’s off just enough to give the idea of randomness, yet not so off as to cause issues for most folks. Well done!

  • @yvesmontcalm1709
