    The picture was printed up with a color laser ( Kinko's / Fedex ) on heavy brochure photo stock then glued. I put a heavy sticky spray glue on both the picture ( back side of course ) and the board then carefully adhere the picture to the board making sure there are no air bubbles. I then give it a couple of days to sit - this helps ensure that all the solvents have evaporated out. Six very light coats of lacquer seals the picture. I wait another couple of days then cut . I will work on a tutorial for the bowl making. They really are not that hard to make. DW

    Tung Oil and BLO work by slowly building up and filling the pores of the wood grain. If you have ever spit shined a pair of boots you have the same situation. As the pores get filled up you can get a shine on it. Personally I just use the Tung Oil to do a couple of things for me. One - Seal the wood so that the real finish does not soak into it as much. Two Tung Oil darkens and brings out the grain pattern a bit. By sealing the wood you can top coat it with shellac or lacquer or Poly with little difficulty. The problem with either Tung or BLO is that it can take a long time to finish getting hard, sometimes years that is why I use it to seal and then top coat. DW

    This puzzle was cut from 1/4 Baltic Birch and has over 150 pieces ( did not stop to count them ) This bowl was cut from Sapele and poplar. It is 6 inches long x 6 wide. Finished with Tung Oil and Shellac. This is a Steve Good pattern. I cut at least one every year for my November shows. The wood is Sapele and Pine. Sealed with Tung Oil and topcoated with Shellac. This ornament was thought of by Harmony on the Scroll Saw Woodworking and crafts forum. There is no pattern I saw it asked Harmony for permission to use the idea and made this one. Cut from 3/4 pine the bird is from Diane Thompsons birdhouse patterns but enlarged to fit the trailer. The perch and tongue leveler are bamboo skewers. Finish is Shellac. DW

    Larry this looks good and it looks like perhaps Red Oak. Ash tends to have a closer grain and less pronounced grain structures. Great job on the basket. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW
