    Default Walnut burl and Macassar ebony DT saws

    10" dovetail saw in walnut burl. Challenging to work with, but I think it paid off.

    This one may be my new favorite. A customer supplied me with a beautiful piece of Macassar ebony. It was my first time working with this wood. After I got over the fear of making a fatal mistake, I enjoyed working with it. Very hard, but it takes wonderful details. The finish is shellac.

    Tested and approved by saw elf No. 2.

    Beautiful work Isaac!. The Walnut is superb.

    Is it time to flatten your workbench again, do you think?

    Cheers

    If you think that's bad, be glad I didn't post pictures of the base...you'd want to wash your eyes with bleach after that.
