This inside out turning is 44 inches tall including the angel and a maximum of 10 inches in dia. at the base. The tree is made of Blood wood , the base Black Ipe and the angel is a small inside out turning of Remo Caspi with a Vegetable Ivory carved head with tree bark blond hair. The icicles are fiberglass resin mixed with flour let to run down the tree. For an idea of size the frosted glass inside with the candle is a beer glass.

Jim, now that is very neat! I've tried small "inside-out" turnings before but, never thought of doing something like that. Way cool! :) :cool:

Thanks everybody. I kind of like the inside out work. It is very time consuming as I glue up 3/4 inch KD boards as I dont want any movement later. This peice has about 80 peices .
