Dave Monk Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I love that pattern and cutting. I am going to have to do that one. dave Scrappile and Birchbark 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill WIlson Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Cherry darkens significantly with exposure to UV light. I wonder what would happen if you taped off the darker section, right along the glue joint and put the piece out in the sun for a couple days to see if the color evened out? If you don't care for the piece in its current state, it might be worth a try. Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vott1 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I also think it looks like heart wood and sap wood of a single piece. Variation is part of the beauty of wood to me. I think it looks great! Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meflick Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Great cutting. What one piece sees as a "flaw" others see as adding to the piece. Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninuninu Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I recon it sets it of just nicely. Lovely effect Tony Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banderson Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I would put it in the sun to see if the cherry oxidizes to a more blended color if the contrast is a bother. Beautiful cutting. Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
