Eleven photos that show a Cherry Burl from the beggining through all key stages of completion.
I call this piece Anti Matter
ANTI MATTER |
|
Finished but now needs to dry and several coats of hand rubbed finish applied |
The begining |
|
Starting to find form |
|
Taking form |
|
begining to hollow the peice |
|
Hollowing with stabilized boring bar |
|
working on the foot |
|
refining the foot |
|
off the lathe-what now? |
|
beautiful burl-almost done |
|
carved the foot |
|
Ebonized and oiled |
|
Now the wood needs to dry for a month and bring its own voice to the peice |
