While I haven't posted any pictures on this site, I have been busy. I'm taking a metal smithing class to learn more about making hinges for my boxes. Naturally the first real project in the class is a ring. It is not ready for pictures yet, but I have been learning how to solder as well as shape metal. I've worked with brass, copper and silver. Each one has their own unique qualities and it is all fun.
Also, I've finally started painting all of my carvings - Santa's, houses, ghosts and Indians. These are also not ready for pictures. There are other projects in the works, but none of the very far along. I have prepared some maple for a scroll sawing set of collasapable bowls. I'm part way done with a set of hinges. I turned a large button to be used as wall decor. That and trying not to keep too busy.
Well enjoy, and be careful of the splinters.
