I’ll Fly Away

[Charlie E]

Simple piece that brings back memories of country church singing from my childhood.

"His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me". 

Simple and eloquent.   I really like it Charlie, really like it.

Sometimes, a simple pattern is so nice.  Well done, but that may not have been a simple cut in Oak.

Thanks. Actually I like cutting oak because it’s slower, so mistakes don’t happen so quickly.

Very well done.  Now, I will have that song in my mind for the day.

Yep.  It is as bad as when I hear "Satchmo" sing "Wonderful World".  But we could have a lot worse noises going through our heads.

Several performances of that song now running through my head.

Either Alan Jackson or Alison Krauss.

I listened to both of those when I was cutting it.

Just curious about what blade did you use?

I used a #3FDUR (Flying Dutchman Ultra Reverse)

That may be simple but it is beautifully cut.  Well done indeed.

Some times things look simple to do but usually not,looks great very well done.

[rdatelle]

That looks great Charlie. Love the wood you used.

Birds flying off into the sunset or sun rise.  Love it.  Perfect piece of wood.

Thank you. It’s a piece of oak from an old pallet. I’ve bought hundreds of dollars worth of wood. The prettiest ones with the most character are usually free.
