Popular Post Old Joe Posted November 7, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) I’m trying to support Alex Fox as much as possible. This is my 3rd new piece from his patterns in the past couple of weeks. I made this one from a 1/4” piece of Lacewood that I had around, back piece is Baltic Birch.

Old Joe Posted November 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 The picture really didn’t do this justice. I guess that I got a bad camera angle, but it looks like I glued it uneven. I didn’t, it’s spot on! danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Joe Posted November 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 I had put a picture of this on social media and an acquaintance wanted to buy it. I sold it, much to my wife’s dismay, but it was a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaughn Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Nice! The heavy grain of the wood is perfect for that cutting. Is that oak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but, no, it’s not oak. I bought a couple pieces of 1/4” Lacewood a few years ago and still had some around. So, the outer two layers are Lacewood and the innermost layer is Baltic Birch stained with Dark Walnut Danish Oil. This piece sold immediately and at a fairly high price. It took time to make, but for those that are selling their work I would recommend this pattern from Alex Fox, but use nice wood for the outer layers.

His tale of woe has generated a lot of interest and sales from sympathetic folks that I show my work to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
