Couple more crosses
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Finished up a couple more crosses. The first one pictured was intended to be a layered but I did my half lap on the wrong side so cut the vertical piece down. The size left meant the layers wouldn't look right so I found a piece of walnut that I had from the practice with the bandsaw, and headed back to the bandsaw to cut a “background cross.” Used the blue tape as I couldn't see my pencil marks. Worked great.
Not sure what the centered cross is made from (was from a bunch of cutoffs I got at the local hardwood store).The other is poplar (center cross), and the heat-treated poplar, and another mystery wood (very soft and medium brown with interesting grain). I just used half-lap rather than stacking like prior attempts. Did a little blog about this.

I learned the process by watching “Earl's Small Segmenting Shop” on YouTube. Very informative videos. This turning is 14” in diameter, about 7” tall and had 36 segments per ring. Made from maple, cherry, and walnut. Finished with Danish oil and spray lacquer.
