Something different

[jimmyG]

I've scrolled these two images smaller and mounted them on stands painted black.
Decided to try something different.  Enlarged the pattern, outlined the 1/4" cutting with 1/8" BB ply using the washer trick, painted black,  and mounted it on 3/8" BB ply with Danish oil.

Nicely done. I really like how the Danish oil brings out the grain of the wood. I've used the washer trick many times and have an assortment of various size washers just for that purpose.

Thanks...
Once the Baltic birch is oiled it has a different sheen depending what angle you're looking at it..  It was difficult to take a flash picture and not show up too dark or too light.   I don't bother trying to make frames any longer and just use the Command strips to stick them wherever I want without messing up the walls with holes.

They do look great.  I wish I had the imagination to do things like that.  Very well done.

Thanks but I don't know about my imagination....
I scrolled these for the second time but larger...  Scratched my head for a few days trying to come up with something to do with them.  Made an outline with the ole washer trick, too wide.  Cut 1/4" off all around.. Debated about just painting black, etc, etc.   Just got tired of fooling with them and ended up with what you see.  A bunch of trial and plenty of errors.  Saw your stuff, you don't lack any imagination!
