Wood Turning Oak & Resin || The ROCK Bowl đ€Ź
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 16. 06. 2020
- Come and watch the adventure of turning an oak root ball that was filled with epoxy resin. It held many surprises the deep I got into shaping and hollowing the bowl which lead to me turning down quite a few rocks that were held in place by the epoxy resin.
But the real star of the show was definitely the casting resin. Incredible Solutions Pourable Plastic casting resin did an amazing job and turned very well. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of getting into resin turning!

Brad, hope all is well brother. Just a couple of things for ya. 1st thanks from all of us for what you have done for Kim. We ordered a couple of units and passed the word on to the club. We are probably going to ship her down a care package of bowls and things to let her auction off for some cash also. Right now every little bit will help. 2nd I was scrolling channels last night and stumbled across a channel that has this video on his channel. Edited and renamed with no credit to you. Just thought you should know. 5 days ago he had 2 videos that he had bootlegged. Yesterday it was 12. I can't find the channel today to alert the other guys. Flintswood or Mitos Tube out of Illinois City. Maybe it's legit but it didn't smell that way.
Thanks again

Thank you for swinging by

That Rock Bowl turn out AWESOME !!!!! Nice work Brad, Thumbs up
Thanks doug. Means alot comin from u
That is a really nice bowl. The wood has so many twist and turns and the resin/color really compliments it! Thanks for the shoutout! đ
Thanks bud
Agreed. Beautiful bowl.
Beautiful!
Thank u
Oh my gosh...that is gorgeous! I love those beautiful resin colors!
Thank u!
The colours of the resin turned out beautifully, the contrast with the wood grain is excellent. Well done.đ
Thank you!
OMG!!.....That thing is Incredible!!
Thank u!
Beautiful bowl! Glad you toughed it through the rocks. Excellent!
Thanks!
beautiful work..
Thanks
Its Beautiful!
Thank you!
Very beautiful combination of wood and epoxy resin !!!đđđ
Thanks
That is absolutely stunning. The colors are awesome. Looks like it is on fire. Love the fact that you left the stone in it. Makes it more unique. Stay safe and healthy.
Thanks! Yes you really dont even notice it honestly
Beautiful! Lots of oak here in Texas. An oak tree in a lot near me got felled by a storm last year. The city cut down the rest of the tree but left all the logs behind. Just recently a smart and enterprising person came by ad got the logs, for free.
One great part of turning is you dont have to pay for material. I could take a limb that fell in my yard and turn it into money within a day.
Whoa! You could not have gone with a better color. This is awesome.
It came out pretty nice. Have you seen my latest green, gold, black one? It my favorite
Sweet project! Love the colors and the shape! Very good choice to add the resin to it! Iâve got one thatâs the same, was gonna be just wood.... now itâs drying for a great big resin pour!!! Nice work, thanks for sharing!!!
Awesome thank you! Ive watched ur channel quite a bit as well! Looking forward to it
You are so very talanted, your work is like a song of praise to the lord that goes on for days!
Thank you very much!
That's a very nice bowl! The swirls in that resin are superb.

You were correct. An awesome bowl with beautiful color.
Thank you for swinging by
Awesome work! Having a rock in there really gives it character
Lol hell yea it does
I believe this is the first time I have seen your channel. I just wanted to let you know that it was absolutely an awesome video! Totally cracked me up âIâm gonna sand this thing and you are going to watch it!â That was awesome, I like your personality, very easy to watch and very entertaining. Thank you for sharing your hard work with us.
Ha! Well i appreciate that

New sub here, sent by Duka Heritage. This bowl is amazing! Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing your technique!
Thank you!
Those colors make my favorite flame look!
Sweet!
Loved this!!!
Another good one on the way
I was watching David's video and he gave a link to your channel. Glad I popped in, fantastic bowl, love your choice of colours and design. I have subscribed
Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed your video
Thanks! Whatâs his channel name? Just curious
@@RatedRWoodturning David Adamsen
@@silverlady1118 ahhhh yes.... big inspiration of mine. Love his channel!
Nice project Brad!
Thanks bud
First time viewer and new subscriber here. I was just referred to your channel at the end on one of Duka Heritage's videos. Turning resin projects is like Silly String for adults.......I LOVE IT!!!!!!
Duka is good people
Very cool! I havenât had any rocks yet but I did run across a nail once!
Ouch! Bet that hurt the tool lol
That is a fantastic looking bowl. Great choice of colors Awesome job !!. One Critique though. Dude wear a respirator when working with that casting resin /epoxy. That stuff is super bad for the lungs.
Oh i know, i have multiple fans blowing any fine dust away from me. Too hot for me to keep a respirator on
Beautiful
Appreciate it
Looks great. I'm a newbie too. Less than a year. Great job. I have a midi lathe but going to a 18 36 soon
Nice! I wish i could afford something like that. This HF one is pretty terrible
Nice work Brad
Thanks
Wow.. Bowl looks super.. Very nice.. Stay connected
Thanks
Damn Brad, thatâs a fine looking bowl!!! Iâve never turned a bowl, but Iâll tell you what, turning a rootball, or whatever you call it, would scare the shit out of me!!đđ Awesome video!!!
Lol i just love the surprises that come along with it. In the grain i mean, the rocks sucked! Lol
Great work, Brad! That came out great! I have no experience turning resin, but I noticed that it looked like you sealed the oak before casting. Did I hallucinate? Probably a great way to make sure you donât lose too much resin by soaking into the wood. Loved the color choices too!
You are correct i did seal it with resin mostly cuz i was concerned about any moisture left in the wood even though i microwaved it for 3 days lol... just make sure to scratch it up before the big pour if u try it. Thanks for watching
Gorgeous bowl
Grassy ass amigo
Pretty cool.
Thank you!
Awesome skills!
Thank you
Looks pretty cool
Thanks
I like it! I am about to do a pecan resin bowl myself. We will see how it comes out.
Ill come check it out đ
Good looking piece. Reminds me of Jupiter with the swirls.
Thanks! It kind of does
Very nice result! I've found the same thing with root balls though - lots of stones, rocks, etc. You can actually pulverize rock & use it as a filler too, though I tend to use soft stones for this. Only tools I have that will hold up to the abuse of turning stone inlay, whether intentional or inadvertent, are the home-made ones I've made over the years; expensive name-brand tools dull just as quick as the HF set. I don't care for carbide scrapers myself, though I have a few of them, and haven't tried them on stone.
What kind of homemade tools? HSS?
@@RatedRWoodturning Nope... a buddy of mine has a Bridgeport, so we put a ball mill in the end and milled a flute in some O1 round stock. Hardened them with his torch & I tempered them in my kitchen oven, then I put handles on them. (I've a video showing off the end result.) They keep an edge longer than any commercial tools I've tried. (Believe it or not, even better than the HSS cutter inserts I have for my Oland-style tools!)
The star of turning stone though is the leaf spring I turned into a scraper though... thing is absolutely massive and stays sharp while turning stone. I simply took an old leaf spring, chopped it up to form a tang, ground an edge on it, and turned a handle.
@@RealRuler2112 very cool. Ill check out ur channel
Nice mate, you got a new subscriber !
Thanks, glad to have ya
Finally a resin video with a Narrator đ„đ„đ„
Youâll love the one coming out tomorrow
Still my very favorite resin and wood bowl!
Well thank you!
Enjoyed your vid
Thanks phil!
Nice work! Iâm new to turning also. Just wondering what your method is to sharpen your carbide tools.
I use a double sided diamond stone 400/1000 and do figure 8âs on it
Cool project...
Thank you!
its hard, but it ain't throwin' sparks hard.
thumbs up just 4 that
Lol thanks
super tare
So pretty!
Thanks
Nice work mate
I've done a bit with resin but nothing that big yet
Outstanding! Ur buddy Duka sent us...
Ahhhh good people! Amazing work. Thanks for comin by
Add the finishing. That is the best part of the work. Watching it start to shine. Anyway...very nice bowl.
Thanks, in my last video i show more of the finishing đ
Love it.
Thank you đ
Love it! How long have you been turning? I just really started myself, so have a lot to learn.
Maybe 8-10 months.... but i worked on the road alot of that time so definitely still consider myself a beginner
Beautiful đ€đ€đ€đ€
Thank you!
Awesome Bowl Man, I can't wait to start turning epoxy. I like your style, thanks for subscribing to my channel.
Thanks! Its no problem.... i prefer watching smaller channel honestly. But like myself we are hard to find sometimes
Nice!
Thank u!
Turned out beautiful. Great work bud. BTW spider man keeps blowing wads on your bench. Hope you catch that punk soon.
Lmfao
I couldn't use my traditional tools at all on my epoxy blanks. I think I had the speed too high.
Yea, its nice having both to choose from
How many litres of epoxy was used? Looks awesome.
Honestly i can't remember fot sure but i dont think it was over 40 oz.... probably less
Brad, who made your signature burning tool? did you design it yourself or did they have a layout to work from. thank you.
I did design it myself. I actually did a full review on my main channel. Ill link it for ya

@@RatedRWoodturning Thank you so much..
thank you for the link I'm still very new and have not seen all your vids... Happy Holidays..
@@thomasreddick5908 no worries... this is actually my second channel. The link I sent was my main channel where I do more tool reviews than anything. 2021 is gonna be my year I try to develop this turning channel more
Hey would you be able to tell me the model of your lathe? Thanks! Bet you had fun cleaning that up at the end lol
Itâs the larger Harbor Freight lathe. If you can afford anything better, I suggest something else
Where did you get your round tool rest. I have the same lathe and cant find any other tool rests for it. Thanks
Psi just put them out on amazon with the 1â shafts
Did you have to cut length of post? Its listed as 5 3/4 long
Art Lee yes I did have to cut it down a bit
Thanks for info
Out!
Standing!!
Appreciate it.... i'm due to get back to turning soon. So tired of making Christmas presents lol
good luck so creative, Hi from new friend

Very nicely done! Gorgeous wood grain and coloring! Cheers, Paige C.
Thank you! I really appreciate it
This channel is awesome, I can't believe it's not bigger! Would you mind if I covered a video or 2 on my channel to show others what you do? I'm from Houston so I always supporting other folks from TX. Regardless, keep it up, you are pretty awesome my friend

I just havent had the time to devote to growing it. But plan on taking on less custom work this year to crank out more videos
How do you know how much resin to mix?
Total boat has a volume calculator but with piece like this its just a guess. The more you do it the better u get. I always have something else at the ready if i mix too much so its not wasted as well
@@RatedRWoodturning thanks. Resin is so expensive.
@@rsstnnr76 definitely is... most my resin work is by order only because of that exact reason
Hey?! Are you Brad's Workbench?!?!
I hate that guy!
I didnât realize there was actually rocks inside that thing lol great project might even like it more then dick pics
Lol those are hard to beat
Beautiful
Thanks
