Post a photo of the last thing you made

I cannot believe you have no responses to this fantastic Ostrich!
Seriously there you go again with a very, very good carving.
The essence of an Elephant. Absolutely delightful, a fine example to all wood be carvers.

Thanks for showing just what can be done.

Why thank you.

I love the way it's front right foot is just lifting off the ground - it makes it appear to be on the move. Very clever and extremely elephantine. I wish I could carve.

That was a bit unintentional. I had cut away from the mounting block a bit wider than what I should have done. You're the only person to have noticed it. Even I didn't see that one.

Funnily enough I documented the process on the carving of this one with stop motion. If anyone is interested in understanding how its done it can be seen here.

It's a pretty simple process to be honest.

And some other bits I couldn't identify!

Made a marking gauge from walnut and arctic silver birch. Still need a blade for it.

Just finished and delivered this cabinet in Oak.



I have to say I'm not wildly enthusiastic about it. It was made for a friend who has a load of M&S furniture and wanted this cabinet to match. The M&S one was 100mm to long.

Not much fun copying someone else work but hey ho!! It was well paid.

Really nice, I've just started making furniture and I wish mine looked as perfect as that. Is it possible to have a look at it top, back and sides? I may try to copy it if that's OK with you?

Thats for your comments.

It's fine with me if you copy it. I copied from M&S as the post said. I'm afraid I didn't take any other pictures and the furniture is now with it's new owner. Have a look here if you want to have a go at copying one (that's what I did)

Hi guys,
Here is my latest piece (hammer)
Well not very latest but kinda recent ish
It is an auctioneer personalised gavel, a commissioned piece.

 

[monkeybiter]

Very nice! Well made and looks the part. On closer inspection of the inlay [i.e. the end] did you make individual staves for the barrel?
