After a week of work imposed exile:mad: I finally got busy with some stuff.
First is a 5" BLM platter from a cut-off Keller sent me in a huge box...some of the stuff you guys toss just kills me!! 1/8", 4 coats of Tung oil finish and 1 coat of WOP. My first attempt at anything NE. Next are some stoppers ordered by the gallery, I really only like the "Tree" shape, but the were specific. Spalted hackberry glued with bloodwood...I am never sanding that mess again:mad:!! Curly maple from my friend Jim Delaney, dyed red. I really don't like the shape, but that's what the drawing showed:rolleyes: I got a box of wood from a good friend in Canada, Mack Cameron with some of the most beautiful and white burl I have seen. Elegant Beauty Black Ti and 10 coat CA finish. Our pastor is a huge Packer fan and we had an arrangement that if the beat my Raiders...well...black gold Jr Gent polished to 12k MM and Hutts. Wasn't sure if I posted the last one, last of Mike Smiths holly with a CSUSA popouri lid finished with Mylands. I think Mike is gone or something...trying for 3 weeks to get some wood and nuthin' :confused:
C&C always used on the next ones...thanks for looking!
