Woodturning: The Root Burl!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 вер 2021
- There were so many ways to orient this unique piece of Manzanita root burl on the lathe, and I had originally intended not to use epoxy resin. However, when it was clear that I could not achieve the shape I was going for without losing too much of the character from this wood, I had to bite the bullet, as they say, and throw this piece into some delicious plastic.
Let me know what you think of this piece by leaving a comment below! I read all of them and respond to as many as I can.
Thanks to Total Boat for the thickset epoxy! This stuff worked wonders and did not crack, even though I poured almost 3 liters of resin and a 7 inch deep pour. I never had to fill a single crack with filler or CA glue (discount/affiliate link below).

Hi, I live in Iran, almost until six to seven years ago, when for some reason I had to quit my job. I am both a woodcarver and a carpenter. The smell of wood, the smell of wood turning, the smell of resin, how does it feel, hand art is really indescribable, I congratulate this artist and wish him success.👌👌👌👏👏👏

Manzanita grows wild all over Northern California, it's one of the hardest bushes / trees to pull out of the ground that anyone has ever seen. My father used a 200 ton excavator and almost pulled the excavator over while trying to remove a root from one.
When I saw it was Manzanita, i raised my eyebrows, because i know how tough that stuff is!
Every time I watch one of these, I am reminded of Kilmer: "Only God can make a tree", and I think, yes but David Adamsen can make it more beautiful. Fabulous partnership.
I love how the small cracks in the wood ended up looking like tiny rivers on a globe. Your choice of resin colors was perfect.
Поздравления за упоритостта и търпението, майстора си е майстор!
Spoilers dude
The best thing is, that it's unique. The design will never be the same if another was made. Beautiful work of art.
you could say....
it's Non-fungible
The grain in wood never makes an aesthetic mistake.
To bad a unique man is worthless without money
Agreed
Except it definitely could be
That is probably the most beautiful woodturning piece I have ever seen. Stunning work.
Beauty is all about the creator and who values it! So as humanity, you are a masterpiece, someone only need to explore it out from you
Hello Caroline, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus?
Это ЭКСКЛЮЗИВ!!!В руках мастера бесполезный и безобразный кусок корня превращается в шедевр!БРАВО!
Полностью согласен
I’m always blown away at what people are able to find hidden inside wood & stone. The shapes have always been there, waiting for the right person to come along & show it to everyone else.
Thanks Rob!
I firmly believe that you are half correct. David did a great job with this piece, better than anything that I could hope to do, but I don't believe that there is only ONE "right person" for that root burl. I think that any talented artisan/craftsman who owned that root burl would be the "right person" and would bring out their own unique vision of beauty from it. Let's say the multiverse is real and infinite. If that root was handed to a different artisan/craftsman in each universe, or even if it was handed to the David of each universe, a different yet beautiful piece will be produced in each case. That's one of the great things about creativity... it has NO LIMITS. If David was handed an identical root burl I doubt that he would want to create a second urn/vase that mirrored what he had already created. Where would the fun be in that? Anyway, I don't know much, but I know that have never wanted to duplicate something that I have already created.
Great job David.
David, I watched your work in amazement. It was truly satisfying. You are such a creative and innovative person. The vase you made is gorgeous. The professional skills you display are great. Nice to see a real professional at work:) .give us more such vidoes
Riveting and stunning merger! The spirit of the burl was not sacrificed to the plastic. Hope to see more, this was a masterclass in wood turning
i can't stop laughing imagining the dog in your picture reading this comment in a silly cartoon dog voice
The spirit of a root chunk?
Hey! Did you know God is three in one!? The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit! Bless him!
Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead, and gives salvation to everyone who has faith in him! True faith in Jesus will have you bear good fruit and *drastically* change for the better!
Have a blessed day, everyone! ❤
Your worries (yes, anxiety), depression, suicidal thoughts, EVERYTHING will melt away and be NO MORE when you lean on God and put your trust in him! When I have physical pain, I literally pray and the Lord quells it, that I am healed!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! People are bothered by his name. The world hates the truth and wants to continue living sinfully! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous.
Only after watching this can someone really appreciate what goes into some thing like this, truly amazing craft and most beautiful work.
I jsut told my boyfriend out loud (who sent me this video bc he knows im into these) "this is hitting all the right spots, it has glitter, it has cools, it has warms, it has space, but it also has earth because of the wood, and it SHINES", congrats!
Hello Mica, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus?
I just dug out a root for this purpose this morning. Probably sit on it for a year. I haven't even started turning yet. I'm just amazed at this popping up on my feed when I come back inside to take a break.
Awesome! Thanks for watching and good luck!
I don’t know anything about turning or lathes but that was soothing, fascinating, and produced such a gorgeous piece. Thank you, and thank you algorithm for recommending this.

Agreed.
Yeah
The Algorithm was strong on this 1
Even if we skip the rest of mastery, just the level of finishing, this superb balance of discrete shine, depth, colour, texture and bumpiness, leaves you in awe.
"Superb balance of discrete shine" what an articulation

Какое великолепие! Произведение искусства! Браво, мастер!
Сродни алмазу! Факт в том что это неповторимо точно
Looks like an artifact from the ancient world. Beautiful.
@alyx stars ಠಿ_ಠ pardon?
@@jamesmcsparron she's on crack
This carpenter has amazing skill, I can't stop watching it's almost mesmerizing. It's so satisfying to watch.
I'm not even into this kind of stuff, but I still couldn't stop watching. This is an amazing display of talent.
I was about to comment about how satisfying it was to watch myself!
He's a wood turner
Agree
absolutely incredible experience watching this with no context at all for how it was going to turn out; I just about lost it when you started pouring NOT JUST ONE GOOP, but VARIOUS goops, PLURAL into that bucket! It's so cool to see the steps of a process that's totally opaque to me, gone through by an obvious pro.
Also really appreciate how long this video is; I feel like the pacing gives a really good idea of how much time & work it takes to make carefully-considered art like this by hand. I got a tiny bit of that "wow! made something!" satisfaction vicariously, but not without thinking multiple times that, like, whoa... so much time spent hanging out patiently in front of a spinning piece of wood, shaping it little by little. excellent stuff!!
Thanks so much! Yeah, I took my time with this one. I spent a lot of time just thinking about how to mount this on the lathe, and even longer figuring out what to make out of it. In the end, sometimes simple is best so the wood can speak for itself… another reason why darker/black epoxy is my preference.
Root burl and resin is one of the most beautiful things in the world. I love them so much and this is such a beautiful example.
Всегда нравилось изготавливать различные небольшие поделки из дерева, были эксперименты со смолой, в 2022 году на даче хотел обустроить большую мастерскую, но оккупация не позволила реализовать планы. Большой респект мастеру за мастерство и смелость при изготовлении таких сложных изделий. Харьков, Украина.
I couldn’t see where this was going, but that is stunning. Well done.
The whole time i was lost but the result… beautiful

You couldn't? He makes only round containers. So it could be only a pot, a mug, or a vase.
@@x_mau9355 haha
A simple coffee tree trunk but through creativity has created a pretty cool work 🥰
I would not have believed that georgeous vase was hidden inside that disaster of a root cluster had I not just seen your video! The texture, patterning Ang grain of the wood is marvelous and the resin sets it off beautifully! The last thing I turned on a lathe was in the early 60's in middle school woodworking class!
I am always in awe of someone who can take something that is naturally beautiful and make it even more so.
Hello everyone, watch this if you want to go deep and remember the wonders inside you because it will take you back to your childhood. on my channel 😇
I never thought that woodturning would be anything interesting. Don't knock it til you try it. Dude, you are an artisan sir. Much respect. You have earned my sub. Questions, these pieces of art for sale? This vase looked exquisite. You do commissions? Say purple instead of black (my wife)? Seriously. Been married 10 years, looking for original and exotic gifts. Rather support you than some megs corp.
Thanks very much! Yes I certainly do commissions. Drop me a line through my website www.adamsenwoodcraft.com/contact and maybe we can work something out!
It's very difficult to get artisanal silly string into the can, but if you do you'll see the quality difference over the store bought kind.
Uh… I don’t understand… but ok where can I buy some “artisanal silly string”
Edit: ok I got further into the video and I get it now, take my like and leave.
I thought the exact same thing, literally "so this is where silly string comes from."
I was just about to comment about this 😭 my favourite part of these resin item videos
Gorgeous piece....thank you for sharing ❤.
@@YukonJack My initial thought was that you could probably survive a fall from any height if you had a landing pad filled with that string.
The fact that we didn’t know exactly how it will turn out is the most fascinating part.
Damn this is what people should live for.
как же красиво получилось ,просто шедевр. спасибо вам за вашу работу.👍👍👍👍
Даже очень
О Боже какая работа,можно часами наблюдать. Хранит вас Господь 🙏🙏🙏
Thx David for the viewing pleasure , it is a beautiful piece , and again for the thoughtful camera work and references , looking forward to more
Art comes in many forms, there is no mistaking it, You are an artist.
What a beautiful piece
У вас золотые руки и богатая фантазия. Удачи вам в дальнейшей работе.
Очень красиво! 👍
That is literally the most beautiful vase I've seen in my entire life.
watching the "strings" form when you carve is so much fun and satisfying
I grew up surrounded by manzanita and never saw any potential in its wood until now. Beautiful job!
The colors of the final piece remind me of ancient greek vases and i love it
That's exactly what I thought.

It really looks good. It's looking like a pristine Greek pot from antiquity.
You have a point here!
I was thinking the same thing!
These are two pieces of art, the beautiful hardcraft itself, which is absolutely amazing, and the immersive and very well made video that catch me almost instantly, thank you!!! 👍
Hey, Adam! Old TV/radio guy here to say you really do a good job with the video editing. Scenes change often enough that it doesn't get boring, and of course your woodturning skills are great as well. Keep up the good work.
this is how the world out there, outside the planet earth it looks like, like a piece of art.
Stunning! It's amazing to me that you can take a relatively 'impossible' piece of wood to work with, and miraculously turn it into this 'stunning masterpiece'. Truly, it's museum quality art!
Tuyệt vời cam ơn ban.
Главное фантазия у человека развита а матчасть это мелочи

Absolutely Stunning piece, worthy of a Museum place
Tornea muito.
The tool sharpener is awesome, looks fancy and expensive. Really neat stuff. The inside is just as beautiful as the outside.
Some videos get tens of millions of views and you just have to shake your head and wonder why. This deserves them.
Thanks!
I'll never see vases like this the same way ever again. Love this.
A simple coffee tree trunk but through creativity has created a pretty cool work 🥰
Wow, that vase is so, so beautiful, there are so many different patterns in it, it's like there's a whole universe in that vase. I could look at it, transfixed, for hours

Your videos show high production values. Excellently video quality, great editing. Also always enjoy seeing the tools sharpened at the beginning.
Just when I thought I'd seen the most beautiful piece that you've done, you go and produce this masterpiece. Simply breathtaking ❤
Wow, thank you!
Как красиво!!! Я даже не думала, что можно из дерева сделать такую красоту. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
это вы ещё кленовый кап под перламутровой смолой не видели где стенка вазы 4-5 мм

Wow! I am so impressed. I love turned burl but had no idea where you where going with it right up until the end. Spectacular.
Absolutely stunning! As a carpenter myself this has inspired me to get into wood turning. Thank you.
Astonishing result. It's obvious that you've got the taste and the feeling of how it has to be done. Keep on and best regards.

kinda looked better all natty. but to each their own.

Jay have been
Astonishing? Kan dia indo
The colors that came from that root once it was all polished were just gorgeous.
Burls are some of the most difficult things to put on a lathe, this guy makes it look easy. In reality, if you go in 1/16" too far, you could find your tool struck on the ceiling, and a broken finger.
Absolutely beautiful, those intense rich colors. Great job!
I needed this tonight. In a crazy way It's a beautiful way to end a night when I have been mourning my sister who was killed last year. To see that root go from It's natural state, ripped out of the ground, then cut, turned, poured over, cut some more, shaped, and polished feels a lot like my heart right now. The process so painful, but so carefully watched by the Creator. He knows what the end result will be from the very beginning; something more beautiful and lasting than what you started with. Thank you for this. I can sleep now. 🤍
I feel bad for your sister. I hope whoever murdered her last year is in prison right now.
that's fucked up, I don't appreciate seeing this
I am sorry for your loss, Miss Vanessa.
You could stare at that work of art for hours and see different things in it, like clouds in the sky!💕
I was so nervous for your fingers! Until you poured it, that made me feel so much better!
You work is incredible. On our next road trip - we will make it a point to stop by and say hello and look (in person) at the wonderful pieces you make! 😊
Hello Pat, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus?
I just ordered my lathe, so excited to finally have my own. Love what you create, thank you for sharing.

Its unbelievable how beautiful nature is in form of wood.. the patterns, the color variations, the more videos i watch my surprise level is only increasing!
Absolutely love watching you woodturning. Your creativity is amazing to be able to look at a burl or a gnarly root and create beautiful pieces of art. ❤❤
Love the finished result, the resin in the end gives it a very striking look in combination with the wood. From a casual glance it's reminiscent of classical greek pottery. Very good result.
Wow thank you!
روووررعة
I too had a feeling of classical Greek.
Yes!!! exactly it's reminiscent of classical greek pottery
I'm about 5 seconds from finding this guy, just to give him a giant piece of wood and ask him can he carve me something cool. Like a globe, bowl, idk. This guy is great!
Just ...wow. So needed this video for many different reasons.
It's obvious that you truly love your work. Watching you was mesmerizing, and your work absolutely gorgeous.
I made a Stacking Doll on a lathe... What you did was Art at the HIGH level! Excellent!... and thanks for Sharing and documenting.
I really enjoy watching someone who is truly a master at their craft. This is a stunning piece.
That is one of the most beautiful woods turned projects I have seen.
Could not agree more, congratulations on a job well done again. Thank you for sharing with us to enjoy the beautiful pieces of art you create.
Сколько стоить ?
The whole process looks so messy, fun and satisfying and very beautiful in the end.
Oh man, the silly string covering your whole arm, then the epic music for the big reveal, this was so satisfying. Im going to have a great week now, i just know it. 💪💯👑
So cool how it looks like continents that you'd see on a globe in the final result. Awesome piece of art!!!
Какой молодец! Как уверенно, красиво шёл к цели!!! Шедевр!!! Восхищаюсь!!! Успехов вам!
Good work MashAllah
I never get tired watching this video
I've watched a lot of burl + resin turning projects on YT, but this right there among the finest! An absolutely beautiful piece of work.
Absolutely a stunning piece of artwork. I am grateful that I just happened to scroll past this video and for some reason went back to it. This is my first time seeing resin added to wood and turned into a such a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for the introduction. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
你好你最近怎麼樣？
A beautiful piece of art. Your nimbleness, patience, creativity in turning pieces of wood to collectors items seems unparalleled. Best wishes and may your inner eye remain open always to create such masterpieces.
That's art. I have seen things in museums that would be put to shame beside it. Truly gifted. Well done.
I can only say that this is crazy in every way and the black parts look like marble or something like it and I love it. This is amazing
It is so enjoyable and relaxing just watching the whole process. Thanks for sharing this.

In a world that values individual expression over genuine talent and one where simple beauty is overshadowed by complex ugliness, it's refreshing to see something that's skillfully crafted and objectively magnificent. Well done!
Thank you, Samuel!
I don't know the first thing about any of this but when it came up in my UA-cam and I decided to check it out I couldn't stop watching lol. Major props to you master craftsman 👊🏼
This is such a stunning piece. Wow. So beautiful.
Классическая форма. Получился шедевр! 👍👍👍👏👏👏
The contrast of orangey wood against the black resin, just wow! Initially, I thought the mix of black, brown, and pearly grey was tacky taste, but now I see that the black has depth and nuances and a solid black would have been very wrong, esp on that orange wood.
Your craftsmanship of wood and lathe is only surpassed by your photography and music.
This was almost a spiritual exercise. Thank you!
Those who can do this marvelous piece of wood turning are master artists.
Absolutely gorgeous! I love that combination of complex wood and epoxy resin. Good choice.
I have never watched this being done before and at first, thought there would be nothing left. I was so wrong! It is magnificent 👌 👏!
