Popular Post heppnerguy Posted April 29, 2018 Popular Post Report Posted April 29, 2018 I saw the new bowl that Alex Fox designed and cut and I just had to give it a try also. So here is my effort. I am going to include this in my wife's Mother's Day gift. I hope she likes it as well as I do. Dick heppnerguy oldhudson, Old Joe, Dan and 9 others 12 Quote

Scrappile Posted April 29, 2018 Report Posted April 29, 2018 Really nice, Dick. You are always several steps ahead of me. I like that bowl so well I bought three of his bowl patterns. Thought I would do them in order of my reprieved difficulty. This one the most difficult. I haven't got to any of them yet. heppnerguy 1 Quote

I really did not see the circles until I was finished with it. It really was a little different from other baskets I have cut. The odd shapes makes one a little more careful assembling it. You have to pay attention to what you are doing. It is just carefully aligning each row as you go. so the outcome is not present to you eye until you have it all glued up and then turn it upright and wham, the circular pattern comes to life.

Kevin, I am sure that you have probably made several baskets, yourself. No matter how difficult they appear, they are about the easiest pieces to cut out and assemble. But thanks for the vote of confidence anyway Dick heppnerguy Quote

I enjoy making these baskets and bowls as they are not difficult and only take a short time to cut out Dick heppnerguy Quote
