A Blue Line Flag by Request

[cashew]

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!

I honestly thought that the back was material, wow you did an awesome job.

Thank you - that was the idea going in -- this guy just says I want a flag like this- you decide how it's presented -- so I gave him one as real as I could make it

That is so insanely unique. I’m in bewilderment how you achieved this. Wow wow wow !!!

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.
