- Woodturning - In this video I combine walnut, cherry, resin shavings and solid resin blocks to make this very unique jellyfish vase. All doesn't go to plan so stick around to see how I repair this piece as I make it, thanks!

I was given the wrong information from Designer Epoxy, the sale is only from 12 to 15 Jan. Sorry for the confusion.
I think this is the most beautiful piece 🥹❤
So, you got a resin nazi?? OMG...you're a grown man with a very informative webpage. You GO, GUY! Just tell the resin nazi, "NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!"
This is a beautiful piece and so colorful! I just love it!!
Maybe there is too much air in the shavings you put in? Caused holes?
Maybe there is too much air in the shavings you put in? Caused holes?
That shredded resin looks incredible, like quartz.
Thank you very much!
Don’t listen to other ppl telling you to do things how they do, everyone has an opinion, the only opinion u should care about is you! Your pieces r amazing and I hope to order a tshirt very soon
Thank you very much!
I think that "weird alien jellyfish mushroom" is about as good a description as you are going to get! I do like the designer epoxy being used in 3 different ways in the piece, I think that is interesting. Cool shape, definitely unique.
Yes, it’s the everything vase! 😂
I think of cotton candy when looking at it. The jellyfish I know are not this color at all.
Lion's Mane in SE Alaska. Thinking maybe you have a pink puffer fish or something if you like the ocean vibe.
Please make more jellyfish, this is a unique and ethereal blend of ideas. Such a relaxing pleasure to watch too.
Thank you very much!
That pink color is EVERYTHING! I mean, pink is my favorite color, so I'm biased, but this is the prettiest shade of pink! It looks exactly like my favorite nail polish, which has the same kind of hypershift. It also looks like the highest grade of rose quartz! I would love to see that color and texture in a project with something like burl or spalted maple...that would be incredible! Keep up the wonderful work!
Designer Epoxy
Thanks very much!
This is so unique. I love the chunks you added and enjoy when you “recycle” items from your previous turns. I also liked seeing how you made the lip on the vase. Designer Epoxy.
Thank you! Cheers!
I think this is one of the neatest shapes I've seen you make. I'm not a pink person particularly, but this looks really cool.
Thank you so much!
Definitely a unique piece. I think my favorite part is the resin "rocks" they almost look like gemstones. As always designer epoxy knocks it out of the park - love the hyper shift product!
I totally agree! Thanks!
I really do like this. It looks very organic and flowing, and it reminds me of a sea sponge, and yes, could be a jellyfish, too. A departure from the bowls and lidded vases, and it's successful! I'd like to see you take on more challenging organic, flowing, sculptural art pieces. And using the translucency of epoxy, these pieces could be really engaging, turning chemistry into nature and blending them into something artistic! Beautiful work Mr Sprague.
Thank you very much!
The thumbnail picture of this Jellyfish Vase is just FABULOUS!!!!!! I absolutely LOVE the colours you chose. Waiting for the video to start as a pot of coffee brews. Fresh snowfall in Newfoundland this morning makes a serene view out my front window. This video making it the perfect start to my day!!!! THANKS JIM!!!!!! Cindy Ings NL, Canada
Thank you so much!
I'm so jealous! Enjoy the beautiful snow and cold weather! Florida is supposed to be really cold tomorrow, I hope!
I bet you could make some really pretty lamp shades and bases that match.
Love that the resin shavings look so soft .
Watching wood turning in memory of my Mama . She loved watching in her last years, 80+ .
Thank you very much!
I have to say this is my favorite vase shape. The resin looks like cotton candy. The clear hypershift with black walnut and walnut shells would be spectacular. Designer epoxy
Thanks so much!
I love the Jellyfish vase! The colors are amazing. My first thought was that it has a Grecian urn vibe. Cool. Very different from what you usually turn. Great job Jim! ❤️
Grecian urn look is true.
Thank you so much!
This turned out amazing! Love how you talk through what you're doing and the thought process behind your decisions.
Thank you very much!
Designer Epoxy. Wow the inside cut on the upper lip is an amazing display of workmanship. I would have been so afraid of a catch. Great job.
Thank you so much!
I love watching the vacuum chamber. The poor bucket 😂. The piece reminds me of a mix between a tulip and a cala lily, it's really cool and very creative. Such a unique piece. It's weird, which is why I like it, lol.
Designer Epoxy
Thank you very much!
Jim, your videos are never too long!
Thank you very much!
I think this vase is very much the shape of an Ancient Greek vase. I personally think it shows off best with a light in it. I appreciate your process, and all of your skill and technique. Thank you!
Thank you very much!
WOW --HAD NO IDEA THAT YOUR PROBLEMS WERE THIS HARD BUT YOUR EXPERANCE DOING THIS IS AMAZING --NO ONE CAN TELL AN ARTIS HOW TO MAKE THE PRODUCT YOOU WANT SO FAR THEY ARE BUTIFULL ==THAT JELLY FISH ITEM TRUNED OUT SO PRETTY --GREAT WOOK JIM🥰🥰🥰
Thanks so much!
Definitely one of a kind. I like the shape but not the color.. My reaction when you applied the epoxy was 'Wow'. There's something about the colors after the finish has gone on that really changes it. Overall, i love watching and next weekend I'm taking my first woodturning class. I've been making jewelry from clay and beads for 8 years now and i guess its on to my next adventure. Thank you. ❤ Designer Epoxy
Great! Thank you very much!
Also very glass like! Beautiful 😍
Thank you very much!
Love the hyper shift in Designer Epoxy. This is the most Transitioning Vase I've seen yet.
Thanks so much!
Gonna admit that I had my doubts going in to this video... but I really should know by now 'TRUST IN JIM!' You never let us down 👍 And you certainly won me over by the end.
As always, have a great weekend buddy!
Thank you very much! Same to you!
I actually really like this one, Jim, and I admit I wasn't sure partway through HAHA A thought for a future project might be to make the folded down rim much longer, which might give it a look a bit like an abstract flower!
It can be done, but it’s pretty tough to cut up under that rim. Thanks
Awesome 👍 so colorful I would love to have one! It would be cool to actually try making one with candy in it!❤
It wouldn’t survive the turning process. Thanks
Never worry about the length of the videos you produce. I have watched videos of nearly 8 hours length. The more the better. And I adore your videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Breaking stone or glass - use a 3"-4" dia capped metal pipe about a foot long as "container". Make a 2" dia capped (both ends) "ram". Place material in the container and use the ram. Can use hammer on the ram when needed. I have a second ram which flatten which help to much finer crushed stone/glass which I use to fill in cracks. The cap of the container can be removed when needed to get material left in the container. (I also have smaller dia set for crushing small stones - I use this more often)
Yea, been thinking of making something like that. Thanks.
I’m really like the shape, especially the mushroom top. I don’t like the multiple colours as much. I think all pink or all one colour would have made it stunning!!!!
Thanks for sharing!!
When I saw the thumbnail I really didn't think I would like this one, but I am very pleasantly surprised and happy to say I do like it! I especially like the hyper shift. Brilliant! 😀
Glad you like it!
Jim, have to say this one didn’t float my boat. I still appreciate your work and creativity that you bring to your work. Always look forward to the next project. 👍💕
I appreciate that! Thanks!
You managed to make the most convincing faux rose quartz I have ever seen and quite frankly that is freaking awesome
I'm not really a pink person either but if this piece ain't just absolutely gorgeous..
Thank you very much!
Some days you are the bucket, some days the mallet... Beautiful work Jim!
Thank you kindly
I love your videos cuz you explain most of it and you show most of what you're doing most of the people that do these kind of videos just speed through it and I don't like that so thank you for making them long I love them long to know everything that you're doing
I appreciate that! Thanks so much!
Watching you from a very 🌞 Western Australia. 38oC so I’m watching from the pool.
I love the unique shape and use of odds and ends.
It wouldn’t be out of place in a modern gallery 😊
Awesome! Thank you so much! I’m jealous you are sitting by the pool! 🥶 -10 here in Canada!
I like that you keep working a project with flaw and creative approach to a fix. I appreciate you creativity with these turnings but I'm not crazy about this one.
Fair enough! Thanks for watching!
The vase is gorgeous! It also reminds me of stained glass or blown glass! It would be gorgeous to set the vase on a pedestal with a light inside the vase. The light would show all the colors from the inside out. Great job with the vase!
Thank you very much!
To be honest, it’s not my favorite piece. But that’s the best thing about doing art pieces. Everyone has a different taste in it. Don’t stop being creative. You really pushed me to try all kinds of new stuff when it comes to turning. Thanks Jim
Wow! Thanks so much!
LOVE the description, it fits!!!! Extremely cool piece!! I agree, not a pink person either, but it works for this.....
Honestly, my favorite part is always "Jim vs the mold". 😂😂😂
Not a turner, but its fascinating to watch, a chunk something turn into a creative beauty.
Thank you so much!!
The pink is gorgeous! One of the things that came to mind as I watched this, is that this is very much an exercise in patience. The odd occasion you show it in real time is important, especially to anyone just starting out. You absolutely cannot rush this process. I’ve never been good with projects that take a long time to finish, as patience is NOT one of my virtues! This one has fairy vibes to me. The colors, the shape, very fantasyish. Thanks again for a wonderful Saturday morning!
Thanks so much!
I just love it! Saw that thumbnail and I clicked SO fast! _Fantastic_ colours & form. Cheers!
And wow, your channel is growing fast! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
This is absotively, posilutely my favorite of all your pieces! I adore the fun shape, the contrast of the wood with the resin, and yes, pink is my favorite color 😊 And the hypershift *chef's kiss*
Thank you so much!
Jim, I love this piece when I saw you. Putting all those colors in I thought. Oh, my goodness, I think the only one I really don't care for is that lime green and you can always turn that to the back. It is beautiful
Thanks so much 😊
If you did something like this with a metal inlay like the spotted bowl. It would be up my ally and a half. When I was little my mother took me to the ocean and I was seeing jelly fish on the beach. Since I'm also from Ontario, I hadn't seen anything with testicles. I emphatically yelled down the beach at my grandma after being warned not to step on them "Gamma don't step on the testicles!". I still say this to my Grandma to this day when she travels to coastal places.
🤣🤣 awesome story! Thanks for sharing!
Cotton Candy / Candy Floss Mushroom / Jellyfish Vase! And the broken resin pieces look like hard candy or ribbon candy. 🙂
I don't particularly like this vase, but I do love watching you come up with these ideas! Some end up great, some not so much, but they're interesting and worth doing (and watching).
Thanks for sharing!!
Very whimsical and funky! Well done Jim
Thank you very much!
I love the hypershift in the vase.
Thanks so much!
Love ❤ your videos! Not too long! Great that you recycle your shavings! Love the colors! It's beautiful! Love your work!
Thank you so much!
I think this is one of the most interesting hollow form you have made so far.
Agreed, thanks!
looks like a life preserver on top but I love the colors, very nice
It does! Thanks!
Magnificent!!! Consider yourself a top artist. Yes Jellyfish is perfect name. Part of being an artist is having ideas you don't know how it will work and taking a chance anyway. Also working with colors you won't usually work with expands your horizions. Keep up the great work and don't let those who grumble get you mad.
Thank you very much!
The layers of colour are very cool!
Good morning all
Designer Epoxy
Thank you very much!
Jelly fish vase is perfect. Another amazing work of art. 20 of 10.
Thank you very much!
You are my primary turning channel.
Been watching you whenever I get the time. Your jellyfish looks great.
Awesome job. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
Awesome! Thank you!
I had no idea where you were going with this project ... and no idea as to how wonderful it would turn out! Bravo, good sir! Truly creative!
Thank you very much!
When we were kids we had ‘horse apple’ fights. Hopefully you never have a project that ends up making you think of horse apples!🤣. Thank you for your service 💪🏻
Thank you very much!
Would have scalloped the edge on that. Definitely has Florida vibes, colorful pastels very pretty
Thanks
No matter what it is. It is totally awesome 😎 and I love the green in it. Definitely a challenge but you did it !!! Great job 👏
Thanks so much!!
OH MY GOD 😍😍 Pink is my favorite color. I wouldn't be able to not look at this.
Thank you very much!
I really like the live chat. Thank you for giving us even more of your time.
You are so welcome! Thanks
Thanks for your transparency Jim. I used to be a manager at Pizza-Pizza in Pet back in 2000 and then had my own store to manage in Renfrew. i thank-you for your service. I love watching your channel when I have the time to do so. Happy `24 to you and yours. Keep going Bro. I`ll keep watching you spin your beautiful creations.
Thank you very much! Same too you!
You have my mum raving over this one. She just wished we could afford some of these pieces!
Designer epoxy for the win!
Awesome Thank you very much!
Another relatable comparison is sort of like a pitcher plant, which would be a neat project too.
Looking great as always, which also always feels like an understatement to say; your pieces truly have a knack for being unique, identifiable, and a reflection of your style and process.
Thank you for sharing, Jim.
Thank you very much!
I'm always amazed by the stuff you make!
I am also amazed that people can see how skilled you are and how many epoxy pieces youve made and will still armchair critique you on something theres no chance they're better or have more experience at it than you
Edit: the spitoon thing is for sure from movies where it wasn't actually being used for its intended purpose, it's a bucket to spit in, why would saloon owners spend money to make it a fancy bucket, its like the holy grail if it was found it'd just be a plain old cup because back then thats what it was, it only been seen as important in the years after the event
😂😂 so true! Thanks so much!
Absolutely beautiful.. my mother's ashes are buried in Newfoundland . I'm in Texas and love watching.. ❤
Thanks for that! How does a Newfie end up in Texas, lol.
@SpragueWoodturning I was born here. My mother's side is from Newfoundland though..
Very unique piece and another awesome project...Thank you!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I enjoy when you recycle waste products from previous projects and make something new. This one is definitely whimsical.
Thank you very much!
It reminds me of a bowl of cotton candy. Just beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
This would for sure sell well on the West Coast. Beach vibes conversation piece! I Think it's gorgeous!
It’s a little weird and wacky, lol. If my turnings in the future become collectible, this will be the holy grail, lol. Thanks
I’m glad you were able to rescue your bucket.I hope we will see the bucket in many more videos.
Thanks for the bonus vacuum chamber footage. Haha
This is a beautiful cotton-candy-stuffed-with-candy-mushroom-on-ice, but I can see the jellyfish as well.
Generally, I don’t like pink neither, but this is cotton candy. I could imagine this will be an eye candy for kids.
I love your ideas.
Thank you very much!
It is very colourful & unique! Very clever making this vase out of recycled past lathe projects. I love the the sparkly-ness of this (love love love hyper-shift)! I would use it to hold my Venus Fly Trap plant because it needs something unique to put in this unique plant pot... And it looks like you made it out of cotton candy (Cotton Candy swirling clouds). Another very cool project Jim!
Thank you very much!
This project reminded me of experimenting with mud and sticks as a kid. You are just having fun and you know you're going to get yield when you go home..
It is fun, lol. Thank you very much!
Reminds me of a remote Chinese mountainscape with cherry blossoms everywhere, replete with jade like fog . Gorgeous. Conceptually, of course. I love it.
Thank you very much!
Who would spit into anything so beautiful! 🥰
Thanks!
Absolutely gorgeous! Would buy it in a second!
Wow, thank you!
I would buy this in an instant. It's beautiful.
Thanks so much! It is still for sale.
I realized I forgot to comment on this video! I can’t believe that it hasn’t sold yet as I absolutely love it!! If it still hasn’t sold by next week, maybe make it a second prize? ♥️♥️♥️
Designer Epoxy
Wow, that’s a lot of out of pocket for me. Thanks
Is for sure a unique piece, mushroom, jellyfish, or whatever you might see, she's a beauty. ;)
Thanks
Have you ever imagined making 1.70 meter tall garden pots? These large garden pots would be pure success. and your customers would be many more.
I will leave that for the people that do concrete work, thanks!
I like the way you just threw everything at this project. Very brave and fun decision. I especially like the epoxy gems and look forward to seeing more projects with those epoxy chunks.
Thanks so much!
Hi Jim this mushroom vase is magnificent and unique well done Jim you are so talented. Thank you forva marvellous video. Amanda xx
Many thanks!
Jellyfish vibes for sure, and with it being very pink, perfect for Valentine's Day. Jim, either way, is very, very unique 👍👍
Thanks so much!
We think it’s a life saver on a beach ball! Love it!
😂 I can see that! Thanks!
I love your work and it’s great to hear your thoughts as you go! I don’t do this kind of work but maybe one day I can!
You can do it! Thanks
WOW!! ❤ A BEAUTIFUL piece of art!!! Jelly fish fits perfect! You are so talented and I love the way you talk through your process!. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us!
Thank you very much!
at first I thought oh boy, but it does give off the mushroom vibe at first but then jelly fish I can see. I love the pinks, and all the colors '
and that hypershift never dissapoints! just beautiful. love it
Thank you very much!
A jellyfish mushroom so colourful. Great job Jim! It’s really unique. The shavings remember me a granitic texture of a rock. So cool!
Thank you very much!
looks like a planet in space.... pretty cool.
Thanks
Your most unique vase yet, Jim!! I agree it's very flowing and natural, form wise. I'm sure this one took a lot more time to finish. designer epoxy
Thank you! Cheers!
That is so beautiful!!!! Fun too. Your chunky pieces really really make it sparkle.
Thank you so much!
It is a BEAUTIFUL Jellyfish!
Thank you very much!
This would be awesome as a lamp in a child’s room!!! Job well done!!
Thank you very much!
Certainly a unique piece this week Jim. The colours and hyper shift you used look like fairy floss. Looking from top it reminds me of a life saving bouy. Love watching your videos each week. Keep doing you!
Thank you! Cheers!
So cool! I love the colors Pink and Purple so this is something I would buy. Its so Beautiful and Unique. I wish I could afford to buy it but Im on disability so unfortunately Im unable to. I was thinking Mushroom instead of Jellyfish but it could be both. Designer Epoxy ❤
Thanks so much!
I’ve never seen anything like this. I like it a lot.
Thanks so much!
Designer epoxy - when you were assembling I couldn’t imagine it turning out as well as it did - really interesting piece - thx Jim
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! Salute to the colors!
Thanks
The top looks like a lifesaver ring. SO this piece could be a LIFE SAVER! It is really an interesting piece, not my style, but it is nicely done and will find a home with a jellyfish fan! I love the look of the chips! and the way it sparkles with the hypershift!
Thanks so much!
I love the uniqueness you have achieved with this vase. I particularly like the lip you have added. Again, love your work and look forward to each piece you create each week.
Thank you so much!
I do love this vase design my absolute favorite of them all. 😊❤
Thank you very much!
