Ellipse - Splinterz25 - 09-19-2018
Hello once again everyone here's my latest piece "Ellipse" Ellipse is a piece that is made from 6 turnings cut apart and reattached, the carved portion is Mahogany the main body base and ring are Teak. The piece is 10" x 10" the coloring was done w/ a combination of wood dye and Deco Art Metallics Acrylic paint and then finished w/ lacquer. The carved portion is a shell that fits around the main body, and the center section can be moved how ever you chose and the carved shell is removable as well.

^^^^ What he said.
That carving is what I would like to learn and you have it down pat. Do you use a power carver or by hand?Do you have a shot of the back side? Also how thick is it?

Thank you Arlin... I do most of the work by hand I used a small Dremal in a few spots.

I like it. Some are very creative in their woodworking.. doing things off the cuff.
(or maybe I should say, thinking outside the box.)
