Create a truly one-of-a-kind bowl by combining the natural beauty of burl wood with the vibrant possibilities of epoxy resin. In this exciting two-day class, students will learn the complete process of designing, casting, and turning an epoxy and burl bowl from start to finish. On Day One, students will prepare and stabilize their burl, design and build a reusable casting mold, and learn the fundamentals of working with casting epoxy. The instructor will cover resin selection, calculating pour volumes, mixing techniques, adding pigments or metallic powders, minimizing bubbles, and proper curing procedures. Each student will cast their own custom bowl blank using premium burl and colored epoxy. After the resin has fully cured, students will return for Day Two to remove their casting from the mold and transform it into a finished bowl on the wood lathe. Students will learn proper mounting techniques, safe bowl-turning practices, tool selection, shaping, sanding, and finishing methods that highlight both the wood and the epoxy. Throughout the class, emphasis is placed on safety, planning, and techniques that produce professional-quality results. Every bowl is unique, ensuring that no two students will take home the same project.
