Nice job Joe. That's an impressive piece of wood.
I'm currently cutting this same image in a piece of hickory for a coat rack. It's my favorite image for the included ones.
Did you really rough cut with a bull nose and finish cut with an endmill?

Re: Another One
Thanks for the kind words, Guys.
Tim,
I guess the temperature in my shop (110-115 degrees) is taking its toll. I used a 1/4" ballnose for roughing and a 1/8" ballnose for the finish. I had another project this afternoon where I used a 1/8" flat endmill and I guess I just had that stuck in my brain. So to speak...
Again, virtually no sanding
Joe
Say, Tim...do you know a stockbroker in Hendersonville named Paul Alexander?

Re: Another One
Joe,
Wasn't picking on you, just wondering if you were sharing a new secret.
I can relate to your shop temperature from my time in Charleston SC. Now with a basement shop it stays in the mid 70's during summer and low 60's in winter.
No, I don't know Paul. With the stock market showing some encouraging signs, hopefully he's busy. Is he a friend of yours?

Re: Another One
Awww, Tim...I knew you weren't picking on me. Someone has to watch out for me.
Paul and I used to fly together in the service MANY years ago in S.D. He retired from the Air Force, went to Hendersonville and became a stockbroker. We haven't corresponded in probably 15 years, but I think about him whenever I see one of you guys from Hendersonville.
Keith,
That is coming up in Novenber, you know. I have already started making plans. In fact, I am going to have to leave deer camp to attend the meeting in Dallas. Now THAT is committment to Vectric!
