Popular Post cashew Posted April 18, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I am in love with this wood. It's called Black Limba and when I saw it I had a thought (usually a dangerous thing). But it worked!! This is also my second attempt at angle cutting on my scroll saw (the first is the plywood trial in the pics -- a disaster). My first I cut in the wrong direction. The design is also my own, I think, but after all the pics I looked through prepping for this - who knows Be_O_Be, RabidAlien, barb.j.enders and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabidAlien Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 That is DEFINITELY one sexy piece of wood!!! Very nicely cut! I'm assuming you did a quasi-inlay thing here, cut the center out, then moved it around to the bottom and attached via the overlap? cashew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly -- just like bowls -- but this is my first -- building up to it Even the end grain on this is cool Edited April 18, 2020 by cashew RabidAlien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
