Mountain Lake and Cabin

[Kris Martinson]

The original drawing is by Ovid Creasy. I selectively stained the wood with slightly different stains to darken the water. The wood had a natural "flaw" through the center right where I needed it.

That is some dynamic cutting. Beautiful! Makes me exhausted to think of all those blade changes. How big is it, BB, what blade? I love details.

Hi Kris:
What most do not realize is that before you actually can cut this masterpiece you have to make a usable pattern
You have it all covered - Looks great -
I do see one problem with this though.
I didn't convert it, and I surely didn't cut it
Thanks for showing us and it is certainly in the right category

I like it a LOT, especially the way that you utilized the "flaw" in the wood.

I love using the 2/0 Pegas spirals. It took a little getting used to, but I would never go back to using anything else for non-linear cutting.

Love it, Love it, Love It!!!

Whoa.....that's a stunning piece! Patience was a virtue on this one......great skill A++

[Oges]

A lot of detail in this, very nice

[Frank Pellow]

The somewhat darker stain on the wood of the lake is a good idea.  I'm going to try that technique to differentiate an element of a piece on a something  that I am currently working on.

I used the 2/0 Pegas the other day. It leaves a much larger kerf (I think it's called) than I thought it would.  Have you ever used the 3/0 Pegas Spiral ?  just to get that sized down ?
