Hi,
Wanted to make my beloved something for Christmas (because she didn't give me any suggestions). So I had a pretty plain looking slab of camphor laurel. How wrong was I when I got below the surface.
This is the first bowl I have attempted and have realised I needed to go a bit deeper inside. Also have to work on the tool mark. What are the best chisels to use for this type of job? Sanded to 400 and finished with EEE and Shellawax.
The other photo is of a repurposed painted saw blade turned into a clock mounted on a nice piece of Camphor Laurel.
Any hints, tips and criticisms welcome.
Thanks for looking
Todd
