Dalmatian Puppy

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Dalmatian PuppyPlayful Dalmation puppy. About 4 inches long. This was a piece of Southern basswood that I had. Got it started and immediately ran into trouble with the wood splitting. Started to throw it away, but decided to go ahead and finish carving. The grain is vertical, and the tail is a dowel that was added on. You can see places where the wood split off. After attempting to smooth them out, I finally stopped as it would cause the shape to change too much IMO.Claude

Manitoba Maple Hollow Form

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Manitoba Maple Hollow FormYou know when you're working on a turning and get that feeling of this needs something. This was one of those.This piece had some interesting figure appear as I turned it. Before I started hollowing I got that feeling: this needs something to set that figure off. I glued on pieces of rosewood to the bottom (which you can't see in the photos) and the top, blended those into the profile and hollowed out the bowl. It's 6 wide by 3.5 high with a 1.5 opening. One day I'll get brave enough to attempt a small opening hollow form (not there yet). It was finished with Shellawax and then buffed.I was pleased with the end result but all comments/suggestions are welcomed.Cheers
Bryan
