DWSUDEKUM Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Very nice. Those all came out great. I have done a little with pallet wood and ended up with a small hand held metal detector to help me locate and nails, broken off staples etc. Thanks for sharing these with us.

Rob Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Those are awesome! The knot at the top left of the eagle/phoenix one even looks like an eye. The burning really adds to the pieces.

Yeah, i make up 2 same size "wooden canvases" and stain one with a light stain and one with a darker stain which makes a nice contrast and usually flip the bottom one 90 degrees. Cant really see it on the photos i posted. This is a Wales flag i did to show what i mean. Didnt flip this 90 degrees though as i liked how the grain went with the dragon. bobscroll 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
