Looks good BB! The cutters seem to cut a nice, distinct pattern. Your Dremel idea works too Frank&Ern. My first go was like watercolour painting when I was a kid - The more I did - the worse it looked. I used a piece of 1" ramin dowel (from old ladder rungs). The Dremel cutters did make a pattern but not as clear as yours BB. I dyed it with a paint pen, added liming wax and stood back to look at the mess
. I quickly turned it into a mini plant pot. I'll paint it with Terra Cotta acrylic (when I find the paint). Then I'll have another go with the Dremel. Photo next time (good result or bad).
