Popular Post Jim McDonald Posted September 2, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 Every year, I try to do something special for my sisters, the in laws and special friends. This year, I dug back in the files for this Steve Good manger scene. It is six layers of cutting, plus a back piece and a two layer lid--so nine layers all together. Inside is butternut which was soaked in natural Danish Oil. (Went a bit darker than I had envisioned. ) Lid and backer wall are walnut. Everything's 1/4" and was stack cut in threes. As always, comments and suggestions are appreciated. Gonzo, Be_O_Be, Dave Monk and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimErn Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Very nice cutting, they will be well received To late to do it now, but if there is a next time I would consider putting a single LED centered top back of it.
