    Thumbs up

    Wow!!!

    Love the quilting or sheen on the ship's bottom, kinda reminds me of water flowing past the ship's side.

    Cheers

    Thumbs up The Bar has been raised

    Tony,
    Love it, you are certainly raising the bar in relation to bandsawn boxes........just wondering though........were you at some stage considering drawers for the top holes as well?

    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    The top section was done with the fret saw, no glue required. Yet to work out a way to make drawers using a fret saw.

    Tony, my first thought was of the early sailing ships with all the sails billowing.Were you thinking of them when you made this creation?. Red Cedar is a great timber. Fantastic job Tony, show more.
    Cheers Wardy
