Re: Urn

For all the love, Thank you. For those who "just came to look": you have no idea the impact you can have by sharing your personal craft with someone. The reaction of the family really touched me. I just did my best to give them what they asked for with a little artistic license...but wow. So my wisd...

Beer and Memories

Beer and Memories! My buddy had a tree in his front yard that was lifting his driveway so it had to go. But he wanted to do something cool with it. Had the tree guy save him a 4" thick slab. Asked me how long it had to season and I said "1 year per inch". So here we are 4 years later and he comes up...

Re: Gravity well Number 9

Really outstanding. The kind of kinetic "sculpture" you can watch for hours and not get tired. I used to make single marble roles but nothing this expansive. Wow!

Propeller

This is ART for my office, not for use. 47x5.25x1.5 laminated Mahogany. Purchased the model and modified in Aspire. 2 sided cut which this program makes EASY. About 90 min per side. I was amazed how well this did in not breaking off the VERY thin remaining trailing edge.

Re: Boomerang Wall Clock

Rather reminiscent of a Star Trek badge, but otherwise original design and execution. Nice mixed media!

Re: Sit a Spell

Beautiful work! I'll admit though that I expected two of the legs to be maple for a maple and walnut stool. :? One trick I've used many times for stretchers into a round leg is to make a small flat spot (pocket for the shape of the stretcher) with the mortise in the middle for a clean flush fit. Yo...
