How about a magazine holder? You could fit a good few copies of Catholic Monthly in there, no doubt. 🙏

Not sure about the subscription choice but great idea 💡

I'd use it as a curtain tie back - I have some really heavy door drapes, and this would be perfect to keep them hooked back. Gorgeous piece.

@@JackMackWoodturning Maybe some subscriptions to 3000 Abortions Daily or Pregnant Man magazine..?

@@jeremysepicrun if the proceeds of such publications went toward those adversely effected by said controversial issues.. I’d be more than happy to subscribe.

🤣🤣 I’ll have to try that.

Thanks Dave. You think a different shape would be better?

@@JackMackWoodturning No, I'm all for unusual shapes

Yey, me too buddy. I’ve got more in this style to come but hopefully the next pieces will have function as well as form

@@JackMackWoodturning oh trust me, there’s definitely both function and form in this design already

​@@JackMackWoodturning jj

Thanks joe. Yeah, contrast is everything in a piece like this

It's not paper. It's a kind of rubber

Em… it’s not a kind of rubber . What gives you that impression??? It’s paper/card.

@@JackMackWoodturning it looked like foamies to me but maybe it just looks odd on film? They look like very thick sheets

They are stacked up in sets of 7

Thanks matey I’m glad you agree.

I love watching these. Thanks for sharing. Your art😊

I literally just commented the same thing. Wow. Thought i was the only one.

Thanks harry. I’ve been thinking about trying this for years. Just had time to give it a go. Many more things in the same style to coMe 👍🏻

Pat yourself on the back much

Simply, he's creative.

woodturning was invented in 1300 B.C

Watching Nick Zimmetti

That’s a cool idea… you think a chess set like this would be a nice build ?

@@JackMackWoodturning that is a grate idea

I sure think so

@@JackMackWoodturning It would be unique legendary chess set.

Jack he's right...I was thinking chess set too...it would be an amazing feat !...🌿🌿🌿

My pleasure, I’m so incredibly intrigued as to what the other 4 videos are ?

Thanks man. Are you a viking?

Thanks buddy. I’d very much like to see your work. How can I do that? I am essentially a purist when it comes to turning and love nothing more than a piece made from a single piece of wood. However these videos are my opportunity to do something different to the day job so I play around with absolutely any ideas that seem possible. Regardless of wether it falls into the box of “what most woodturners like” the stuff I make here is about process over final piece. That being said, this final piece will be staying in our house as I love it too 😉

@@CalebBerman I say this as a confirmed Episcopalian Christian: please do not reply to people just to advertise our religion. It's extremely rude. You are essentially going, "What you said here doesn't matter, this is more important." And yes, life after death is important, but you can do this in a better way. If you want to do this, make your own separate comment. Even so, I advise against that, because it's again sort of saying that what you're commenting on isn't important. You're changing the subject without any sort of nod to whatever you're commenting on/replying to. A UKposts video is not a public message board in the middle of a sidewalk. Furthermore, _everyone and their mother knows what we're about and I'm frankly really sick and tired of hearing the same tired words over and over again._ At this point, not a single thing you could say online could convert someone to Christianity. And the way people tend to do so comes off as, in my opinion, "You're wrong, you're going to burn in Hell _unless_ you join my religion because my religion is the only right way to live." How would you like someone coming around and saying that to you? And from what I'm skimming, this is much the same. Frankly, in my opinion, this kind of stuff makes us sound like a bunch of brainwashed fanatics. You're pushing more people away than you're bringing in. The Internet needs no missionaries. People already know what's going on. They've already decided. Stop wasting your time and serve God by being kind to others, not essentially being spam mail.

Polymer clay? Like Fimo and Sculpy? That's fun to play with, I just wish it was stronger.

Haha. If you are aware of an old woodworking truck called a paper joint (Where paper is used between two pieces of wood when glued so that it can hold firm while being worked by then also be able to rip it apart after) you’d definitely think this wouldnt work.. I was waiting for it to come flying apart on the lathe.

Nice one RG. Something nice to gaze at on a magical trip I would imagine? 😵‍💫

Thanks L. What’s the silver lining?

Thanks buddy. Means a lot. What do you think I could make with the off cut ?

Nice one M. Does your cat need glasses?

@@JackMackWoodturning A new pair of glasses is always welcome!! I know whatever you produce will be purrfect!

Thank you.

Nice idea.

For real ??

@@JackMackWoodturning - Absolutely. The split teardrop shape is really lovely.

Thanks Hal. What would you use it for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning - As an object of the contemplation of beauty. It is its own justification for being, like staring into a multicolored candle flame. Evolutionists have explanations for the survival value that beauty provides. Beauty doesn't exist outside of the mind. We have invented it. You invent it every time you strap something onto the lathe. Something of beauty that starts in _your_ mind, is then shared with the minds of all the people who witness your finished work. It is not just this graceful teardrop or candle flame, but all the other lovely children of your mind.

Thanks C, what would you use it for?

Thanks D. Are you an artist?

A rainbow torch flame. That’s it!! 🤣👍🏻😊

Same here really. Not too many colours?

Thanks Mr Q. Do you collect butterflies?

Thanks S. Good enough to eat? 🤣

Thanks so much Pam. Really appreciate your support. Hope you have a great weekend 😊🙏👍🏻😉

When 50% of your comments are hearts, it's easy to spot it's you

@@unclesam8174 ???? Are you talking to me ????

I am agreeing with you 100%. I am telling him this could be his signature piece. It is so stylish. Just love it.

Thanks Kug. Is that a snowman?

Nice one Rich. You going to try it?

Zameti is too annoying. I’m glad Jack did it instead.

@@JackMackWoodturning i just bought my first laith very recently. But i will try something like it in a few months. Shit i made my first bowl yesterday. It. Is. Difficult. These guys make it look easy. I got a lot to learn.

@@drummerman1206 yeah, but he sure lets me know whaat NOT to do, his videos are funny and clever. But this cat jack nailed it!

He tried something kinda similar, but with coloured foam instead of paper and with less of a design. It uhh... it didn't work well at all.

My work here is done 😉👍🏻

Sorry I have no way of translating this comment 😕

Thanks Susan. That’s a lovely idea.

I said the same 😁

Thanks D. Thinking of trying again a little differently 😊👍🏻

Me neither! I think you might like my latest vid: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/cXNhpZWNg5CjyZc.html

Thanks Alex. What do you do?

Thank you Sarah. 😉

Thanks Jay. What have you been creating lately?

What would you use it for?

Haha tears of joy?

​@@JackMackWoodturningAn ant in front of an elefant...

Good morning beautiful. I hope you have a wonderful day.

It may well be for sale on my website soon.

You too D. Did you like the colours?

Thanks gayle so glad you found it so entertaining. Here is a link for a few more videos. Let me know what you think. 😊 ukposts.info/slow/PL88o9AhiwQfGtNpqUQJEkg9m7f0k1645h

Thanks May. Im glad you keep coming back.

Nice idea. Thanks you

Indeed it does! Why 1618?

@@JackMackWoodturning Thanks for asking. There's a decimal point between 1 & 6 btw! 1.618 is the approx value of a constant ф (phi), its exact value is (1+√5)/2 and is directly linked to *Fibonacci Sequence.* My name's last 3 alphabets together kinda sounds like this, that's why I put the number. It's actually a ratio, artists & mathematicians call it the *Golden Ratio.* It can be found in various things, from every life form to every cosmic creation. Ancient Greek sculptors and artists used to think that God specifically chose this number for his creations. So they also adopted it for their builds, from wooden furniture to rock sculptures! In their opinion, applying it makes the things look "perfect"! Da Vinci also used it in all of his paintings! Perhaps your creations are following the golden ratio without you even knowing it! Cause they looks friggin awesome, man! 👍

Thank you

No probs T. What would you use it for?

Flattered by your kind words my friend

Thank you for the kind words my friend

Thanks T. What would you use it for?

What else would you want to do with it?

Good morning beautiful. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Thanks Jose 👍🏻

Much love from the UK Bev. Do you think a sphere would have been better?

Thanks Dan. Thinking of auctioning it 🤔

Thanks TM. Worthy of a gallery?

Thanks Stace. Glad you enjoyed it. What would you use it for?

Nice idea. An LED?

@@JackMackWoodturning Some of the LED lights change colors and it would really be cool!! Don't you think?

Thanks AK. Will you make one?

Im flattered . Would you have this in your home ?

Thanks man. What does ‘scratching for cash’ mean?

Thanks Bex. Mantle piece worthy? 🤣

Thanks S. What would you use it for?

I think it would be a great book end. I guess that could still be classified as an ornament or maybe turn it into a small desk lamp. A tiny bulb in the middle would look pretty cool

Thanks R. Good idea, I may need a bigger and more colourful bed 🤣

Thanks so much for the kind words Amanda 🤙🏻

Looks to be foam sheets maybe?

Get in? It’s card my friend.

@@JackMackWoodturning you had some wonderful colours and it turned out great it certainly is a one off well done xxx

Thanks buddy. One for the mantle?

Thanks M. You looks smart. Are you a mayor or something?

@@JackMackWoodturning lol no, thought about it in 8th grade, I own a business book publishing and marketing company, no mayor, thanks for the compliment though :) Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next :)

Nice one Tony. What you think it’s worth?

😆 fantastic.. will you be trying it ?

@@JackMackWoodturning maybe for a pen.. I only turn pens atm .. haven't got the room for anything bigger atm

Thanks Mike. Are you going to give this a try ?

Thanks P. Do you like the colours?

Thanks Marc, where are you watching from?

hi..i'm in France

Nice one J. Will you make one?

@@JackMackWoodturning no way. 😆. I left turning behind after a scary dig caused my spindle gouge to break and fly across the shop.

Thanks Wendy. What would you use this for ?

@@JackMackWoodturning Create several of them; stick a small battery operated candle inside; string them all together; hang them to decorate and light up your outdoor patio or pergola. OR wire them up and create beautiful indoor light fixtures for above your kitchen island (hanging them at different heights from the ceiling) or for above the bar area at a pub or fun restaurant.

Thanks M. What is your pic?

Thanks Ra

Thank you

Where have you seen something like this before?

@@JackMackWoodturning lol, I think you read my comment wrong. I said "never." I know it's late. This came out really cool looking.

What a lovely idea. I think black and white or black and a single colour would look great too. I feel these would sit well In a companionship of variations.

Sounds interesting. Or tricolor or school colors and on we go. Have fun Jack.

Thanks NNN. Have you seen many pieces like this?

@@JackMackWoodturning no not at all, I think I have seen similar with layered woods of different colours, obviously not twisted, did you use fun foam?

No it is just normal coloured card. Did you watch the video 🤣

@@JackMackWoodturning of course I watched it, lol it looked thicker than card though lol

🥳🥳🥳

Thanks Robert 👋🏻

Thank you

Little shop of rainbows

FEED ME, FEED ME! 🤓

Thanks Liz. What would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning in my living room so everyone how comes see me can look at that beautiful act it's beautiful

Thanks Lamb. What would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning Man this is something that you sit up as a nice piece of art in your home or office!!! Maybe even in a glass case to keep it free of dust!!!

Thanks man. What would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning well it's definitely very interesting. Displaying it on a desk or table would surely strike up a nice conversation for anybody who sees it. I would talk about the process of how it was made and refer them to your channel. I'm a photographer, so I would use it for photos and maybe use it as a decorative prop in videos.

Thanks G. What would you use it for?

@@JackMackWoodturning Well it looks incredible as a piece of sculpture however, you could use it as a bannister "Finial". That might be an interesting use.
