To The Moon And Back

I cut this out for my 10 year old niece for her birthday. Piece looked like it’d be quite fragile by itself so I decided to cut from thin B.B. ply and glue it to a star shaped backer from walnut. Dipped in Danish oil today and in a few days I’ll top coat it with some lacquer. Wrote a little birthday message on the back and dated it so she’ll have a lifetime treasure

You are correct, she will love it for a lifetime.  Very well done.

Nice job Kevin.  So did you finally track down the original pattern or did you craft your own?

Someone here made a copy of the pattern for me and messaged me.. I won't be making any more than the one.. but I sure would love to find the designer and pay for their artwork.. Then I'd make them to sell.. Was quite interesting at first because I almost never cut 1/8 BB ply without stacking at least 3.. usually 5-6 stacks.. so cutting was a little different going.. I managed to get through it without breaking or messing up too bad LOL..

Excellent in every respect....thought, design and execution.

Nice cutting Kevin. I can see where it would be slow cutting. Does look pretty fragile.

That really came out good Kevin. Like how you added the star to it.
