    Default A couple of new boards.

    This first one I call "Swirl" The biggest challenge was figuring out the matching radius on each segment.

    The second one is made from scraps from the first one. In the first one, each piece is cut on a taper and the cutoffs were used to make the second one.

    I can appreciate the amount of work that went into the first item. It would have kept your brain ticking over nicely for quite some time.
    What size is it? It would make a nice wall decoration.

    Great work, BDBD. You clearly have far too much time on your hands

    What are the timbers?

    You have more time when you are retired (after 37 years of working and not having a lot of extra time)

    I used walnut and maple.
