TimberWolf Report post Posted August 31, 2007 I like the Celtic designs, although I have never attempted any. Looks good! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Sheldon Report post Posted August 31, 2007 Celtic designs aren't particularly difficult, just very tedious and time-consuming. And on complex designs, you have to constantly pay attention to which way the bevel should go. They're some of my favorites on finished products, but I don't do too many of them.

Dragons Pearl Report post Posted September 11, 2007 Very nice work. The bike pieces and leatherware on this site are fantastic. I am starting a celtic knot cross (the one on the free patterns section of Tandy online) that will be the second celtic piece I have tried. First one was just a border around a name on a checkbook cover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alessandro Report post Posted September 15, 2007 Carved tank panel I did for my Springer Classic Beautiful Michael. I am thinking of making one as well but I have no idea how you fix it to the byke. Do you glue it? And which dyes and finishes did you use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck, Sscott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck, Sscott Correct, basically all you do is punch two holes at the top, and a short slot at the bottom. It definitely helps to have an existing one to use as a template.
