cashew Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 I've heard a line in a song that goes "the safest place in the world is insanity". I think I'm pretty safe then since this piece is a bit insane. I started with 3/4 Baltic Birch - cut it (with #1 modified geometry) and shaped it (with various power tools starting with a grinder and flap wheel) Then mounted on 1/4 and finally framed with different molding (need to work on those corners) Framed size is 35 x 23 It's for a customer -- I'm not getting involved in politics or things like that I think it worked! frankorona, flarud, JimErn and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankEV Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 To think scrolling is considered an ART, I say nope...Just good mechanical skills. What you have created is true ART in the strictest sence of the meaning. Aboslutely beautiful. Your customer should be VERY VERY happy. cashew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
