Well, Im still recovering from the tooth extraction but Im getting stronger everyday and today Ive felt the best in a couple of weeks so I went down to the wood shop and finished two projects:
The Art Show Box
I took a long look at the entire box and decided I really didnt like the way it looked so I removed all the wood stain and decided to just leave it natural and here it is:
Coffee Wood Bowl
Earlier this summer youll remember I made a coffee wood bowl for a friend of mine, who in turn gifted to a friend of hers. And then she asked me to make her another coffee wood bowl and I did but didnt post about it. It turned out to be quite a journey as the bowl distorted badly. Fortunately I was able to re-turn it and salvage the bowl and I finished it this morning and here it is:
This fellow is going to get several coats of salad bowl varnish and then this weekend Ill turn it over to its new owner.I also make a test dish this morning out of some western red cedar to see if it is turnable. Its really soft wood and while its really pretty, it does tear easily especially on the end grain. Ill keep this one in mind. In the mean time, the cats will have a lovely new dish for their Party Mix.
Ill do a posting about the bed headboard this weekend.
More later,
VW
