    Default Bandsaw Commission

    Hi

    Thought I would share an image of a recent commission work. The client required a Red Cedar box, conventional shape, to contain a "crusher" and lid, he had made. This required a considerable amount of cutting, shaping and gluing, which can be seen in the larger image. The smaller image shows is the exterior with a glimpse of the lid, enclosing the "crusher". The client will make a metal handle, to fit to the drawer?

    I think it works, the client is happy!

    Nice work but what is a crusher and what is it used for? I am a bit nieve about such things. Being a country boy also addsto the confusion.

    Very nicely done SB. That's rich looking cedar.
    A crusher....'tis a clamp, a device to titillate the jaded senses of old men...look away laddie lest you be taken with unseemly fits of lubricity!

    Now you've got us thinking

    Exclamation Bandsawn commission

    Hi

    Given that this is a commissioned work I guess it is irrelevant what the client wishes to use the implement for?

    The model was expertly machined and finished and is said to be a good likeness of the finished product.

    My guess is that it could be used to crush small things, nuts for example?

    Please no S & M jokes!

    Not wishing to prolong the agony any further and after having spoken with the client, I can advise that the implement is a "garlic crusher" which is used regularly. Tony Ward www.tonyward.org

    Now I will be able to sleep easy. I use a press for my garlic but crushing it sounds like a good idea also.
