    Default Deco II

    For those who follow my builds this is my latest "Deco II" This is what I'm calling it for now. This will be my most ambitious carving project to date. After returning the piece to the lathe and undercutting the rim I hand drew my filigree pattern on the rim to be pierced and carved. To protect my work from the oils in my hands while all of the carving process is going on I seal the pencil lines and wood with the end bit of a lacquer rattle can.

    The carving on Deco II continues on to the second section of the rim.

    As much as I like the outcome, I do find the journey at times tedious.

    I like the outcome but enjoy the ride, I find the carving very relaxing. The only troubles I have at this age is cramping in my hands after hours of carving and eye fatigue.
