Members Fonzarellis Posted October 21, 2019 Members Report Posted October 21, 2019 Trying to make a lot of sample projects for show & tell. Got about twelve others on the drawing board. Quote

Members Fonzarellis Posted October 21, 2019 Author Members Report Posted October 21, 2019 I think you're right. Just an expression I use for a craft booth. Quote
Members Rhale Posted October 21, 2019 Members Report Posted October 21, 2019 Looks fantastic, especially for show and tell! Quote
garypl Posted October 22, 2019 Report Posted October 22, 2019 Really nice carving! The last picture shows a circular piece - how big is it? Gary Quote
Members Fonzarellis Posted October 22, 2019 Author Members Report Posted October 22, 2019 Thanks. It's 12" for a stool cover. Picked the stool up off the curb and refurbished it. Just need to tack it on. the design can easily be scaled down and used for the center of a clock face. Hmmmmmm, I think I just added another project to my ever growing list. Quote
Members kiwican Posted October 22, 2019 Members Report Posted October 22, 2019 That stool seat cover and way better than that stool deserves ! Quote
Members Rbarleatherworks Posted October 22, 2019 Members Report Posted October 22, 2019 Those pieces are just beautiful I have a question about the lettering, how in the world did you do that? I can't even do a 4 letter word in a straight line Quote
Members Fonzarellis Posted October 22, 2019 Author Members Report Posted October 22, 2019 I just carefully traced the letters from printing on vellum. they are about 3/4" tall so it was very tedius steep beveling and smoothing with a stylus tool. Hand painted with dye (I'll use acrylic paint next time) with a "two hair" brush. Labor of love! $275 made it worth the efort. Quote
Members Rbarleatherworks Posted October 23, 2019 Members Report Posted October 23, 2019 WOW ... a two hair brush Thank you for sharing Quote
