heppnerguy Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 Challenging for any scroller. They keep you focused for sure. But for anyone afraid to tackle this type of pattern, all you have to do is remember is it all 'one hole at a time'. This is a fabulous example of patience and care. Beautiful piece. You do not have to enjoy anything Lord of the Rings to enjoy this cut Dick heppnerguy Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenD Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 I have wanted to cut that pattern every time I've seen it. One of these days, perhaps I will. You did a stellar job cutting and framing. Probably heard a ding as you leveled up. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebur9362 Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 Oh my god!! What a beautiful job, absolutely incredible!

I almost put an oversized backer on it so I could put it at the bottom. nebur9362 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 @Charlie E can you explain this a little, "then fogged it with flat black from a rattle can to darken it a bit". I think I know what you mean, but have not heard of this before. Did you just kinda lightly mist over it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I know what you mean, but have not heard of this before. Did you just kinda lightly mist over it? Yeah that's it. I may have made that term up. I like more of a very dark brown backer on some things rather than black. If stain doesn't get it dark enough I lightly spray it then rub it with a rag before it drys and repeat till I like it.

Gonzo Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 Holy crap! Awesome piece. I agree with Old Hudson, read the books, starting with The Hobbit. Quite the imagination JRR Tolkien had. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penquin Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 I am in awe on this cutting. Hard to believe you got all that work in an 8 X 10 size wood. Beautiful, well done. jim Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
