- Woodturning - In this video I combine Designer Epoxy and glow in the dark pigments to not only fill any voids in ths cherry burl but extend the rim making the bowl larger. I will also show my method for using as little epoxy that I can while doing this project, enjoy!

You may not realize just how much of a compliment this is, but I have the sound on for your videos. Thanks for explaining why you're doing the things you do. Beautiful work
Thanks, I’ll take it, lol
The bright line of the glow hugging the natural edge of the bowl makes it look like mountains with snow. It's beautiful. Whomever gets this bowl is lucky. I'd love to have any of your pieces in my home. I would display them proudly.
Thank you very much
Lol I think it’s safe to say you won’t be using this method of resin casting again. I’m glad you filmed all this, I learned a lot! The big rock you use in newer videos seems to be easier! 🎉
Lol, thanks for watching!
I love the softer transparent resin colors like this. This is so beautiful.
Thanks Lili!
I’m by 💯 you figured out the splatter/splash situation of today’s adventure at hand! ?!!!
The glow in the dark is cool. Love the see thru rose, looks stunning. Another fine work of art sir🌿 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Loved this one. The transparency of the top so you could see the edge of the wood part of the bowl mad a super cool effect.
Thanks 😊
I've learned practice makes perfect. I started working on my family tree back in 1999 and just learning. Now my tree is more detailed and I go back to the beginnings some times and fix errors I made way back then. I am always learning new ways to do things so.... the more you make castings, the better you get at it. I love watching your videos and went to your play list to watch from your 1st video. I am now up to your 3rd and love watching you progress with each new video. 😊🥰 Love the purple shades you use and also love pinks and light shades of blue 🙂
I've come a long way since shooting this video, lol. Thanks
It is pretty neat to have watched your videos back to front, and see how you and your process evolved for the finish product and cost.
Awesome bowl to resin/color ratio as always, looks like a sea floor shot in the uv light.
Thanks Jim
Thanks for watching!
the glow looks like ocean action against underwater sand, so cool!
Thanks 😊
I love that effect, you should definitely do more like this one.
Thank you very much!
Hi Jim,wonderful approach to increase the size of the burl bowl. P.S I have made a habit of spraying the inside of my pressure pot before each use,. Invariably there always seems to be a small amount of resin that "spays up". Also found that a soak in acetone can clean up the pot (also gauges )
Thanks again for more great ideas !

I e started doing that myself, not every time but every now and then. Thanks
It's interesting that despite which ever pigments you add to the resin that the shavings are white. I enjoy hearing the sound of the gouge eating into the piece, it's soothing 🥰
Thanks 😊
It's gorgeous ❤ I love it ❤ Great job ❤
I just wanted to say I’m so pleased you mentioned left handed turning. I am in fact right handed when it comes to everything, EXCEPT for turning! 😂 I’ve been struggling with bowls, but now I’ve realised that I am only comfortable turning left handed, I will try and adapt my methods accordingly. Thank you! Great work as always too! 😊
Wow, never heard of that before, lol. Get a lathe with lefthand threads on the outboard end, that way the lathe bed isn’t in your way, it way more comfortable to turn that way. Thanks!
Jim, what a beautiful bowl, amazing graining of the burl. Really beautiful
Thank you very much!
Your Engineering background sure does come in handy. This resin pour is really complicated. Thanks to your voice-over your thinking is shared with the rest of us.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful bowl! The cherry wood is even more stunning then the walnut.
Thanks for watching!
Great idea to save resin! Not only is it expensive it is just turned away and fills the land fills. We should always look for ways to be more efficient!
Agreed! Thanks 🙏
Wowza! That is a true masterpiece! It’s well worth all the issues that occurred in the pressure pot! Too cool! Great job!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I absolutely love being able to see the peaks + troughs of the burls through the resin - the glow factors it up another notch
Can’t argue that. Thanks
I like the glowing and the edge of the burl is great! Great job.
Thank you very much
My daughter loves your pink glow in the dark bowl!
It’s really cool, Ed to make one of these again, thanks
Beautiful bowl love burl and resin! I love glow in the dark as I collect vaseline glass it glows with a black light. Great going Jim!
Thanks 😊
I love the transparency on the piece. The cherry Burl is Beautiful! I'm Partial to burl and walnut.
Me too! Thanks
Love your resin saving idea. Bowls not so shabby either
Thanks Dave!
Omg it's the most beautiful thing. Every time Jim. Some are more spectacular than others and that's part of the fun!
Thanks 😊
Whoaaa! Another beautiful bowl! When it glowed in the dark, it's like magic! Pinkish purple in the daytime, glowing eerie blue in the dark. haha! It reminded me of haunting ridges on the ocean floor, and the movie "The Abyss". Thank you! Another exquisite bowl. 👍🏻 ⭐️ 🔥 🤗 🇺🇸
It’s pretty neat, need to make another one, thanks.
Beautiful! Love the soft transparent pink
Thank you! 😊
Don't know what to say. Just... AWESOME!!!
Thanks!
This is my favorite piece of all you've done. I love the translucent property. It is beautiful. I can see it as a center piece on a dinning room table or a coffee table conversation piece. Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks!
Jim, much kudos on taking the economic route with the resin. Way too many makers pour "gallons" of resin and turn 95% off during the process. I don't know jack about resin turning, but I can see the waste. Merry Christmas and thanks for another nice video.
Thanks Ville!
Hey Jim. The translucence is soooo cool! Love looking down through the resin. The mountain effect is super. Beautiful burl, too.
It totally is, thanks
Whoa that is beautiful in the light and dark.
Thanks Judith!
Using tuck tape on both sides of plastic prevents tearing and makes easier to form plastic plus you can reuse for future projects:>) the plastic makes a smoother finish for later when you put on the machine and helps prevent sticking while removing plastic Your the man I had to tell you the secret:>) Your still a great man, Respect from Canada 2021.
Thanks again!
You did it! It glows! It's just such beautiful work!
Thanks 😊
That is way cool. Makes the edge of the wood really stand out!
Thanks 😊
I love the translucent bowls,such a pretty pink
Thanks 😊
Again a nice looking Bowl.... as you say you learn something new every time.. cheers
Thanks Grahame!
Jim, yet again, a beautiful outcome. Thank you so much for your posts. I’m learning so much not only from the obvious things you’re sharing but also from watching you make subtle adjustments to how you approach the wood with your tools and in particular, the gouges. Thanks a ton!
No problem Steve, thanks for watching!
Nice the way it lights up in the rim of the wood more
Ya, it’s pretty cool, thanks 🙏
First of all, being a fellow "south paw", I like the way you point out the ways we get over the "challenges" we face and also the ways we win over these challenges.
I wonder if a release agent would have worked on the pressure pot & marbles?
I'd also like to add, I never had any interest in epoxies in turning until I started watching you channel. Inspired to say the least!
This was one of my earlier pieces, I’ve changed up a lot of the procedures now. Thanks for watching!
I really like the softer color of resin. It is beautiful
Thanks so much 😊
Hi Jim thank you so much for a very beautiful bowl, my husband loved real wood and glow in the dark things so this piece would have been his favourite of all your gorgeous things and would have taken pride of place in our living room, true master at your heart xx
Thanks 😊
It certainly turned out to be beautiful.
It’s pretty neat, need to make another one of theses, thanks
Very beautiful glow in the dark
I think so too! Thanks
Excellent bowl, Jim. The finish is crystal, very well done. We are always learning. Thanks for helping us with our education.
Thanks again Ray!
You have such knowledge do to what you have done. I am constantly learning watching and listening to you. The true definition of a artist. I am addicted to you and learning from your experience. Thank you for your sharing and teaching us through your experience.
You are so welcome! I appreciate that! Happy you are learning from me!
Wow wow wow with each video I'm loving more and more lol another absolute stunner and the fact that you get two colors in one basically is so freaking awesome! I love the almost transparent look in the natural daylight. And love the Smokey blue effect in the dark .The wood is absolutely gorgeous! It's crazy where the wood meets the resin twards top of bowl the wood looks like a mountain scene & in one place it even looks like trees with mountains behind it.So very 😎 Thanks for sharing.. the giveaway bowl is absolutely beautiful
The mountain areas of the bowl are really cool to look at and the intense blue that it turns into is really mystifying as well, thanks.
@@SpragueWoodturning yes!💗
Since you had the bowl on the marbles it was pretty close to the lid, when you pressurized it, the air went straight down and blew the resin up
This is the general consensus. I still think there might of been an air pocket trapped in the base of the bowl and then spit out when pressurized, thanks. I pressurized the pot really slow but it certainly could of been it.
that was my guess Mike
This is what I thought. Pushed a bubble out from under the bowl and it spattered. Maybe cut a spatter guard out of the 6 mil or use one of those dollar store bacon shields in future...
Thank you
Think so to.
the problem with why the resin went everywhere is because of when you added the pressure to the pot the incoming air hit the resin splashing it. you need a way to redirect/deflect the incoming air to not hit the resin directly. Which is why if you look at some of the mold rack systems they have a top unused shelf that just deflects the incoming air to not hit the resin.
Good info Bryon. I’m going to go back and look at the raw footage and see just how fast I put the pressure in the pot, thanks.
If you add a diffuser at the bottom of your intake it'll stop that. It happened to me as well.
That was my guess too! Good call!
I pressurize really slow ( I looked at the raw footage) so I’m thinking it was a trapped air pocket the popped spraying resin everywhere
@@SpragueWoodturning when I first started resin cast in a pressure pot I had the same thing happen to me all the time. After Jake Thompson showed me that if you use a defuser at the bottoms to the top it will not blow air into the fresh resin and cause it to splatter and I no longer have issues.
Better video title: "Jim loses his marbles" :D
Since you're using a resin with a really long cure time, it'll take a long time for it to fully harden. You should be able to help it along by raising its temperature a little. Regardless, the bowl turned out great!
Jim lost them a long long time ago, 🤪🤪. It’s sitting at about 75F in my clean room. I was also thinks about wrapping a truck battery blanket around the pot as well. Then she’ll cook, lol. Thanks
Toss the pressure pot in the kiln when it's curing
The guy’s that do our marble benchtops always clean up their scrapers etc by using the heat gun to soften the cured epoxy and scrape it off, it works a treat so I’m sure heat and friction was the problem their even once completely cured. Thanks for the great video.
Yes, your probably right, thanks.
Absolutely stunning. Nice job!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful job Jim...beautiful. Explaining outboard and left-handed threads would make a good video--hint, hint.
Thanks 👍
Jim,the black knob just below the air intack is to allow a small amount of pressure at a time. pull knob out and turn counter clock wise, attach air hose open valve adjust knob slowly clockwise to allow small amount of air till you get to 60psi
I took all the regular stuff off. Too many places to leak. I will just be more careful when putting the air in next time. Jim.
He said, "It looks like it's still got cactus juice in it" and I heard "It looks like the cat was using it" Lol.
Lol, thanks 😊
I really like these translucent resin pieces. It's neat to see the wood through the resin.
It’s pretty neat and plan on making more in the future, thanks 😊
I love this one!!! Wow!!!
Thanks
Very nice, I lost my marbles a long time ago and it looks you found them. Great job
I think your right, I will send them to you for Christmas, haha. Thanks
Nailed it. Love it.

That bowl is BAD ASS cool!
Thanks 🙏
@@SpragueWoodturning You're really welcome! Do you have a website where your bowls etc. are sold?
Hi Jim.. what a really beautiful bowl. it looks like you’ve captured the Northern Lights in that resin 😊.. also, love that buffing system - hope I can find the same over here in the UK.. Looking forward to a possible Christmas theme.. Seasons greetings to you..
Thanks Gareth, seasons greetings to you too!
Well done!
Thanks Michael!
Jim, appreciate the down-home videos, I'm learning from you, thanks!
Thanks for stopping by! Jim.
Super very very cool!
Thank you very much!
That is a beautiful bowl!! Love the pink with the cherry.
Thanks 😊
Beautiful stuff ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Watching I get mesmerized, wish I had your talent
Thank you very much!
So very pretty.
Thanks 🙏
Another winner.
Thanks Wayne!
I like the video. I like the bowl . I learn a lot by watching and your videos do a good job of walking one through all that you're doing. As a new turner, I just figured out, as of an hour ago, my 2nd hand tools are for spindles. * Sigh *
The great thing is you only need a bowl gouge and a parting tool to do inlayed bowls, safe turning! Thanks.
Love it
Thanks again!
another beauty!! thanx again for sharing.........
Thanks for watching!
