Finished a project
« on: October 30, 2013, 06:59:22 pm »
I just finished a project and thought I would "brag" a little.
I also posted a picture tutorial of how I made it in the "Tutorial Section" if you are interested in seeing it. Am willing to answer any questions you might have about how it was made.

Thanks for all the nice comments folks. It makes me feel good and, I hope it encourages other people to try something other than fret work.
By the way, Steve Good posted a great video of a guy making a bowl and he showed step by step how he did it and it turned out great. Check Steves main blog page to see the video.
Yes these type of things take a bit more time and patients to make but, the result usually gives the maker great pride and other people really like a project like this. Everyone wants to know how you did it and most think that I use a lathe (which I don't own) and are amazed when I tell them it was just a simple scroll saw (and a LOT of sanding  :D).
Keep makin' sawdust and smile!
