preprius Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) I decided to try @alexfox newest Make Love Not War. For my use I only needed the top layer on a backer. But I had to downsize to 2.75inches wide. This made the branches really thin. I used a 2/0 spiral going slow. I did the internal letter first. I forgot to drill an "O". It was too late to drill it. So I left it alone. Next I did the letters. There was just enough space between the letters and ribbon outline for the 2/0 spiral. It shows i need more practice with the spirals. Oh it is on 1/8" thick Maple. Not plywood. To enhance the 3D effect, I cut outer edge at 45 deg. with #1mgt. Very difficult. I had to pay extra attention. I did this last. This is unfinished. The backer still has a few weeks to be finished. The attached 3 pics show black walnut back, maple back and a pic with pattern still on. The patterns shows smoke marks from using a flame to get the fuzzies off.
