Allen levine Posted April 14 Report Posted April 14 (edited) Made a mistake here I felt my leg burning as I turned on the small floor heater next to scroll and bent down to move air flow but my hand slipped and I advanced a cut too far second pic shows advanced mistake cut used walnut on this piecei I need to sand and clean up some rough spots but it's finished as far as cutting ill apply some oil to give it a deep rich color and I'll see if I want to add a colored background or not the only difference from his pattern is I rounded over the edge on the base ill keep this piece since I made the error but I like it my nephew had a few fish tanks he's really into his tanks and told me he's taking the angel fish piece since he has angel fish so I won't show him this one hehehehe Edited April 14 by Allen levine Left something out ChelCass, JackJones, Mike Crosa and 5 others 7 1 Quote

barb.j.enders Posted Tuesday at 12:08 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 12:08 PM (edited) Looks good. Can see it only because you pointed it out. Sand it and put the finish on. Then show it to your nephew, let him decide. Edited Tuesday at 12:08 PM by barb.j.enders Quote
