Denny Knappen Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 I finished this project on Monday, March 21st. It is a pattern by Lora S. Irish and found in SWWC Spring 2005 issue #18. The wood is walnut 1/2" for the upright and 3/4" for the base. It measures 6 1/2" high and 11" long at the base. I used FD New Spiral #3 for most of the cuts. I have a hard time using spirals on straight lines, so I used FD UR #3 on the base. There is on coat of Tung Oil Finish and two coats of spray Shellac. A fun easy project. Comments welcome.

Nice project.Sorry you had trouble with the spiral.Keep the blade tight and go very slow ,let the blade do the work Quote
dgman Posted March 23, 2016 Report Posted March 23, 2016 Nice work Denny! Why did you use spirals on this? Quote
Denny Knappen Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Posted March 23, 2016 I like using flat blades on straight lines, more control. Quote
Denny Knappen Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Posted March 23, 2016 With all the twists and turns on the inner cuts, I prefer spirals. Quote
