Haven't posted in a while, but felt this one may be worthy..

First real attempt using cherry wood. Finished piece is 36" tall/1.75" thick, finish is natural (lacquer). Was extremely nervous knowing my supply of cherry was limited, so this was a one shot deal. 9-1/2 hour carve, used a 1/16" tapered ballnose on center medallion.

This will hang in the county administrative office bldg.

Thanks for looking!

Wow, Dave, that is really, really clean - excellent job! And fwiw, I have yet to see any of your work that isn't 'worthy' of being posted here.
