Popular Post wombatie Posted July 4 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 4 The pattern is by Russ Beard. It has 576 internal cut. I used 15 blades. It took approx. 24 hours cutting time over approx 10 - 12 week. I had 3 weeks off for Covid, did a couple of items for customers and had various appointment also in that 10 - 12 weeks. I used 1.5mm bamboo x 2. I think I was a quarter of the way up from the bottom when I regretted ever starting it but now I'm glad that I did it. My main reason for cutting this is for my Grandson who did his ancestry DNA and found that he had 3% Viking in him which he gets from me. He was over the moon to discover this so I thought it appropriate to cut this for him and one for me.
