  1. Great cutting
  2. I got it done. This is one of the biggest intarsias I have done. It's 28" x 36" and 157 pieces. I used 12 types of wood. Which are - aspen, walnut, elm. white oak, spalted hickory, maple, yellowheart, wenge, chakte, paduak, northern white cedar, and cottonwood. All natural colors no paints or stains used. This will be my entry into our county fair in August. I have just over 35 hours into it.
  3. Excellent cutting skills
  4. Beginning of the Trail intarsia,(posted in works in progress section). A couple other intarsia projects, then some portraits.

  7. Thank you all for the comments.
  8. This is my hobby as well, but do sell 90% of everything I make. I don't do shows I sell by word of mouth. My hobby is 100 % self supporting, including the new Excalibur 21.
  9. Welcome to the village. I do some turning as well as scrolling. But scrolling takes most of my time
  10. Welcome back Larry
  11. Hello Chris, welcome to the village from Bowling Green, Ohio.
  12. Great looking bank DW
  13. Great job.
  14. Both of my golf people are done. The man is made from - quarter sawn sycamore, elm, aspen, maple, poplar, walnut, and bass wood. the lady golfer is made from - "box elder(flaming), elm, walnut, aspen, poplar, and bass wood. both projects are all natural no stains or paints used. Just a clear finish. Of all the patterns I have, I never thought I would be doing these two. The reason behind them is, my cousin and his wife coach a baseball team for special needs kids. They have been having fund raisers to raise money to host the "championship" games here locally. As one of the fund raisers they are having a golf tournament. These pieces are to be part of an auction. He(cousin) is buying one I am donating the other.
  15. great job on both, well done.
  16. Thank you for all the comments
  17. I use a mixture of polyurethane, mineral spirits, and tung oil.
