Rob Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 I cut this little plaque from reclaimed rimu with a painted mdf backer. I'm not sure where I found the pattern. It is 20cm x 7cm or 8" x 3" approx. Rob New Guy and lawson56 2 Quote

Rob Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 Thanks everyone. I get all of my rimu from the recycling centre at the council waste tip. Usually it is drawer sides or cabinet carcases but this piece was a bit of rough sawn tongue and groove that someone gave me. It cleaned up nicely with a hand plane but was only useful for something small. I wanted to give the flowers a little colour but staining a scrap with food colouring didn't look great so I decided on a coloured backer instead. Rob Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 Very nicely done Rob. Wish we had some of the Rimu available I like the color and grain. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote
