Open Stave #2

[Richard Madison]

Cedar elm and mesquite (thanks again Robert) again, 4-1/2" x 10" plus a little finial just for fun. Wall tk. is mostly 1/4". Picture of the top was an afterthought and handheld, a little fuzzy due to camera shake. Comments/critique welcome. Thanks for looking.

[Gary Herrmann]

Oh that's very well done. Great finial.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Richard - I like this variation! Nice design, more curves and the 'Burns' finial looks really nice! Looking forward to the next version!

[Bernie Weishapl]

Beautiful piece Richard. I really like the form and finial. Well done.

[Richard Madison]

Quite right Steve. Neglected to thank Keith Burns for the finial idea. But Keith's are so totally elegant by comparison, I didn't expect anyone to notice the similarity.

We who have no artistic ability can only copy those who do.

[Robert McGowen]

That does it....... I'm coming over for lessons. :D:D:D:D

Very nice!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Richard,

What a very beautiful and unusual turning. Art for certain! Nicely done Sir!

[Richard Madison]

Thanks to everyone for your kind words. After Open Stave #1 was wondering if I had completely missed the boat.

Robert, you are welcome here any time. BTW, the shop is air conditioned.
