It's been over a year since I've updated this blog! Sorry. Well.. here's one of the newest projects. A small wooden keepsake box for a friend. Baby Totoro. It's a bandsaw box.
Printer ran out of ink. But still good enough to use.
Glued up a few pieces walnut. To a nice block.
Spray glued a printout of totoro onto the block. Then with a bandsaw and a scrolls, cutting the silhouette out.
The hole cut out for access to the drawer
Eyes. Made of pine, I think. It's cut from a dowel. (End grain)
Belly is made up of a thin maple veneer
Small nose is made up of maple again. It's an inlay
Pupils are made up of walnut. I cut them out with a plug cutter
Ears double as a lid for the second compartment.
Special date: Sept 3, 2018
Ready for a Teak Oil finish.
Outstanding as usual. Been missing your posts :(
