Third one coming a long.

Quite a bit of hand work to finish up on this one. 
A couple shows and another project jumping in the middle here and there. There will be finished images very soon.

Purple Heart Frame, Cherry corner locks, maple insert in middle


Decking it to thickness


The beginning of the decking off



start of the engraving


depth controls the shading, and the pieces start breaking out around the main engrave



Hand work with chisels


getting closer


and closer


a couple shot back on the machine. 


I found a couple spots I wanted to clean up.


And this showed the engraving better. 



Tons of work to do on this sign, but still will be a really cool piece.

One is a little farther along the finish train, but they are progressing nicely. 
The third one is of purple heart and maple with a different layout.

I will share more images as this one completes.

This piece is laid up already and now decking to thickness


Taking her down

Bubinga, Purple heart and Cherry


Three great tastes, that taste great together..... Well I guess I don't know how they taste but it seems I had heard that somewhere before. 


Nice small box using up some smaller drop falls from previous project


Bubinga on the perimeter, purple heart in the center


Cherry making of the base.


Take a look around. If you see something I still may have it, If I don't anymore I can make you another one.

If you have a unique idea, drop me a note and lets talk about it and get a project started for you. Holidays are quickly approaching....
