Small Crosses

[Jim Finn]

I made ten of these 4 1/2" x3/8" crosses to be hung on a rear view mirror.  Folks here in West Texas collect crosses so these should sell easily. I was given a small piece of Lace-wood so I used it to make these. Tung oil and spray on clear finish.

Beautiful Cross.You shouldn't have any trouble selling them.Lace Wood.That's a new for me,never heard of that type of wood.Is it found only in Texas?Or am I being silly for asking?

[Jim Finn]

I do not know where the tree for it grows.  I could get it at my local hardwood supplier.

I found a 3"X3" piece of lace wood nailed to a pallet that my boss was going to burn. I snagged that sucker and resawed it to just over 1/2" for some intarsia projects. It is pretty cool looking stuff  

  

I had also bought some 3/4" lace wood for a sea turtle I have been working on.

Funny I think the free piece is prettier.

Nice find for a turtle!
