Wood Turning Resin Fail: Beginner Project

This was my first time wood turning with resin on the lathe. The project wasn't a complete fail, and it was fun to turn a log into something cool, but it definitely didn't turn out how I planned. I am an absolute beginner, but I did learn a lot about pouring resin (especially what not to do) and it was cool adding a little bit of color to the resin. Wood turning with resin is a different animal, but I think the carbide tools make it a bit easier for beginners. It was also fun turning a raw log into something cool.
