Woodturning – You Have To Watch This Transformation!



So I had this idea and it took me a bit longer than expected to create but I’m pleased with how it turned out.

For this video, I used pinecones, epoxy, and copper wire.

The epoxy has been sanded to 10000 grit and finished with polish and a buff.

Let me know what you think, and if you’d buy one!

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the “best” or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I’m aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.

  1. What do you think of my Coffee cup / Travel mug? 😁👍 Does it look Christmassy? 🎅🎄

  2. That turned out awesome! I have to admit I wondered what you were doing and how it was going to turn out when I first started watching but that turned out really pretty.

  3. …very cool, Harry……Smith…..Harry Smith!?!?!…c'mon…what's yer real name???…😆🍻

  4. Amazing as always! 🤯 Lovely work Mr. Smith! As always God bless you and yours and thanks again for everything you do! Keep turning Sir!!

  5. Such a cool idea using copper to blend the steel with the rest of the piece. Funny how once one has seen something which is ‘right’, it seems obvious, but until then, one wouldn’t have thought of it! Cheers Harry.

  6. That's a very unique coffee/tea mug, very nice indeed looks very expensive & yes I would say looks Christmassy. 🌟🌌👍

  7. That looks stunning. You seem to of created a 3D effect & it really draws the eye. If you made it again would you use the copper wire ? I think it looked honest & beautiful enough without that.. But personal taste. On another note. What can you tell me about your state of the art bandsaw guide fence? That looks a great bit of kit. Thanks for the video Harry.

  8. Looks good. Careful of the copper wires cutting into your lip as you wear off the finish!

  9. Harry, when you first put this piece on the lathe, I swear, I could smell the aroma of a rich pine tree freshly cut. The color is so beautiful. Amazing piece. Thank you for sharing.

  10. Hi what's the pressure pot make and price please..? Is the paint ones the same..? Thanks great work 👍

  11. Looks great, not too sure about the copper wire, would have been nice to see a close up of how that looked,possibly a bit jagged.

  12. love the mug Harry, those cones blend perfectly with the colour of the resin, stunning effect. Personally id have gone without the copper wire, although I appreciate the thought process behind it and its was well executed and like I say its a personal preference. Great project as always mate.
