Popular Post Charlie E Posted February 13, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 After cutting this piece, a crack showed up at the top that really took away from it. It looked to just be on the surface so I tried sanding it out with the edge of my orbital sander but it was deeper than it looked and I sanded a noticeable low place. I liked the way it looked so I kept doing it. Made this pretty piece of Sycamore prettier.

Rolf Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) A very nice project, is it your design? I love the font. Sycamore is an interesting wood the grain change depending in how it is cut is very dramatic.

Dak0ta52 Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Excellent piece, Paul. The sanding gives it more of a 3D affect. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you google it there's a ton of designs that show up though. I didn't see this exact one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
