trailfndr Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Spent most of Saturday and Sunday working a a Judy Gale Roberts pattern. Finished size is 20 x 14 inches. I used Pau Amarillo, Aromatic Cedar, Walnut, Poplar, Mahogany, Western Cedar, Oak and Bloodwood. Proof that you can get good results with limited tooling. Just the saw, a benchtop belt sander, cheap drum sander attached to the drill press, and a dremel bobscroll and Huntter2022 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsN Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) wow that is very nice! I have a question. In your progress photos the not red bird looks darker then in this picture. Is it the lighting in this photo or did you do something to it? Edited July 8, 2013 by MrsN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailfndr Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) wow that is very nice! I have a question. In your progress photos the not red bird looks darker then in this picture. Is it the lighting in this photo or did you do something to it? Its the lighting, Photos were taken in different rooms, with way different lighting. It may also be the difference in the frame. I messed up the original fram of Aspen, and as I didn't have enough to redo it, I switched to oak. That would also make the bird appear lighter in color. All I ever put on is a clear spray finish Edited July 8, 2013 by trailfndr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
