Popular Post Old Joe Posted January 11, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) I just finished these for a friend that is making a coffee table for his wife as a surprise. The “legs” will be wide boards on each end and he is going to frame these in with backboards. I had also made an OM symbol last week with African Paduck inlay and he wants that to inbed into the table top. The inlay came out pretty good, but finish sanding it was a messy job because the redness of the Paduck would bleed into the BB. Thank you Fish for the George Harrison pattern.

wombatie Posted January 12, 2019 Report Posted January 12, 2019 Terrific work Joe. George came out really well and your sign is impressive with the contrasting woods. Well done. Marg Quote

I had no idea until you asked. Harrison seemed to have it on several album covers.I just said, “Sure” when asked if I could make the symbol. It seems that it is a very important symbolic part of the mantra of Hinduism . It is called an OM, or sometimes an AUM. Quote
Tomanydogs Posted January 13, 2019 Report Posted January 13, 2019 @Old Joe Thanks for the explanation Joe. Quote
Rob Posted January 13, 2019 Report Posted January 13, 2019 Perfect inlay, something I want to try more of this year and the George Harrison portrait is excellent too. Rob Quote
Dave Monk Posted January 14, 2019 Report Posted January 14, 2019 Nice job! The Ohm inlay looks great! In yoga the Om symbol is said to represent the one-ness of all creation, including the heavens, earth, and underworld. Old Joe 1 Quote
Old Joe Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Posted January 23, 2019 I stack cut when I did the George Harrison and kept one for myself. I decided to add the OM symbol onto his shirt.I think it adds to the overall project. Ivan Nikolaev and Fab4 2 Quote
