Another beautiful piece Bruce. Love the colors, the overall shape and the way you turned the "spindle" (sorry - dont know the proper term). Just beautiful.

Very cool piece. I like the contrast. I'm always amazed how folks can hand carve things and keep them uniform like that. Must take a lot of practice and some very sharp tools.

Thank you Adam Yes my Flexcut tools are razor sharp and you have to keep them that way while carving, there are variances in the flame shapes but that shows it was hand carved and not done w/ a router jig.Originally Posted by Adam Petersen
