Here it is all finished up.
This piece of Box Elder has a lot going on! With the curl, red flame and especially the natures own portrait. Soon as this one was roughed out I thought it looked Like a Volcano. and with My good buddy Kevins advice I named this one Eruption
It Measures 10 1/4" Finish is Deft (spray can) and wet sanded to 1500.
Thanks for looking. <STYLE type=text/css><!--td.attachrow { font: normal 11px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color : #000000; border-color : #000000; }td.attachheader { font: normal 11px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color : #000000; border-color : #000000; background-color: #D1D7DC; }table.attachtable { font: normal 12px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color : #000000; border-color : #000000; border-collapse : collapse; }--></STYLE>

Yupper, yupper...You done good, Jim! :) I'll bet that would fetch a nice sum of $$$ if one were to sell it, but I'm thinking I would keep that as one of my "treasured" finds! Well done!:) :cool:

Truly quite wonderful Jim. You did a great job of recognizing the picture in the rough turned piece of wood. You did a superb job of saving it in the finished turning and bringing it to full glory with a great finishing job!!!! :) :D

And all this hard work was rewarded. Congratulations on the WOW cover!!!! Absolutely spectacular!!!! You are the man!!!! ;) :cool: :) :D

Hey Jim, I guess this makes you a bonafide "Artist".
Fantastic!

Can someone point me in the direction of the WOW cover that is referred to?

Thanks,
Rick

Are you planning on perhaps a Marine Varnish for the UV protection? I'd hate to see something that pretty fade away.
