Humming Bird Sculpture
« on: March 06, 2013, 01:40:12 pm »
I've been working on this piece for a few days.  It's a pattern from Steve Good Catalog.

It was my first try and doing compound cutting.  That part of the project was not that difficult.

It's made from Pine, Cedar, Maple and Baltic Birch.

Thanks for lookin'

It looks like a great piece, but I don't see where the compound cut is - can you clarify?

The leaves and the pedals were a compound cut to achieve the thin cut and the curvature.  One cut had the contour of the leave, the other the curature.
