Popular Post barb.j.enders Posted September 30 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 30 This is an H. Botas pattern. I believe this is a piece of Spalted Maple. Finished with varathane. The original pattern has an eyebrow but this piece wasn't wide enough to allow it. I didn't want to shrink the pattern to fit because it would be way to small. I love the way the colours of the wood popped with the finish. heppnerguy, ChelCass, TAIrving and 17 others 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 I saw the pattern and thought it was very interesting but not one I was interested in cutting myself. I have to agree with you on your wood choices as I like how it came out with it. I am a little amazed had how the tear looked so real too. You have been doing some really interesting project and I always enjoy seeing your work. My shop time is a little slow due to the hot temperatures we are having here. Yesterday was the hottest temperature ever recorded in Southern Arizona in the month of October with a 113 degrees. It should be cooling down pretty soon.

I like to mix it up. After a disappointing sale, last year, I made a decision to cut what interested me and not to try to figure out what the public wants. This is the second eye that I have cut. The first one was on a larger board of quilted Maple and included the eyebrow. I am grateful that my shop is in my basement, so not weather dependant. That being said, it is with mixed feelings when I miss a beautiful day outside. We are heading into winter now. Temp this morning was 5 C with a high of 11.
