That is very cool, any way you look at it. Big thumbs up for that one.
Wooden basket for special young lady
A friend told me he worked with a fellow with a 7-year old daughter who had cancer. So I decided to make her a wooden basket out of spalted maple and mahogany. Then my daughter and I went shopping for some toys to go in it.
In 2014 I got a dozen or so logs about firewood size for a woodworking friend. I sliced the logs into boards. I labeled each board indicating the log and the number of the board (on the end of the boards in last photo see B7 and B8). That way I could match the grain later. The 3rd photo is one of the logs and the last photo is some of the boards. I dried the boards for a year in my shop. I was holding onto these boards until I found a special project for them. This project is about as good as they get. I am honored to make her the basket.
I use my general finish of Zar polyurethane and mineral spirits.
