Well, after months of deciding how to do the background, I think it came out good. A lady I met at a craft show about 6 years ago and she recently asked me to make this for her front door. It's 18" in diameter all plywood. I still have some touching up to do. I did two layers on the ball, the back is 1/2" ply and the front is 1/4". The bag is 3 layers of 1/4" ply. At first she didn't want the background to be white, then when I told her I could make it look like a golf ball she changed her mind. I think she will like the color combination. Thanks for looking.

I think its more of a hole in one. I like the way the background looks as its curved on the outsides.

[Sparkey]

Dan that is awesome. I really like the way you made the golf ball.

[GPscroller]

That is one clever and well done project.  Am sure the lady will love it!  Thanks for the pic.

Dan, this piece is a hole in one, it's an outstanding bit of work. Not only is it cut just so, the paint job sure makes it look like a golf ball.

A great piece of work Dan. I would like to know how you did the stippling on the golf ball. Maybe a CNC machine?

Thanks. I did a Google image search and found an image I liked and was able to create a pattern. I cut it out of 1/4" plywood. Then, I glued it to 1/2" ply and cut the outside shape. Since I was priming and painting g I didn't worry as much about glue squeezing out but there was very little to clean up.

excellent job

[rjR]

Very well done.

 

 

Looks great even to me a non--golfer.

[penquin]

That is super.  Really like the overlay on the piece over the background.  Cutting all those holes had to be a lot of work.  The golf bag and clubs are a great touch and personalizing it makes it one of a kind.  Thanks for showing us this goodie to enjoy.  Great work.
