Woodturning - Australian Dragon Skin? 2024 is The Year of The Dragon!

Woodturning - In this video I use the fridge method to achieve color separation when combining two colors of epoxy and using some banksia pods from Australia. The banksia pods give a dragon skin look to the piece so that's where the title comes from. Please like and share with your friends, thanks!

I want to say I am truly enjoying these. and look forward to seeing many more of them! Thanks for helping me relax after a very stressed-out day!

  • I have noticed in other wood turning videos I catch, they duct tape the piece where the steady rest wheels rest. That might prevent your piece from heating up, or at least get rid of the wheel mark. Or it's just needing one more day to cure because you used the fridge. Successful experiment, beautifully finished 💖

  • The seeds are removed in nature, by a cool burn bushfire - the smoking helps the pods open & the seeds fall easily then & propagation is quite easy. They prefer a black sand seaside aspect, though grow coastal in well drained sandy soils. High nectar producing for bees & birds. The purple was the greatest choice for contrast with colour of the pods & the green was wasted - just not necessary - really lovely item - beautiful! Think about some grasstree timber - it's special too.

  • Jim, as always, your resin work is beautiful, but the natural beauty and gold hue of the banksia pods are the star of this piece. Absolutely beautiful.

  • This one is so beautiful. It reminds me of a prom dress I once had - sleeve- and strapless emerald x-shape, floor length with a big amethyst bow on the left side. I love the combination of this two gems' colors.
