No Name Yet

Postby Dalboy » 19 May 2019, 19:05

Finish one of two pieces should have the second finished either tomorrow or the following day.
Still to give it a name. Inspired by Keith Tompkins from another site.

The spiral is Yew and the base is Oak scorched and lime waxed. sealed with sander sealer and finished with woodwax22.
Some very careful turning to match up parts. It stands 8 3/4" tall and 3" at its widest.

Thank you. Not easy to answer but it did take some careful planning and getting the parts to the correct dimensions to each other along with a few swear words on occasions when I did things in the wrong order as you can imagine as the grain needs to line up as well.
