Corian Spiral

Here is a picture of a stack of corian ready to be turned on the lathe for a pair of handles. These were meant to be done by Christmas, but time is getting away. I'll post again after I attempt to turn this mess.

Santas and More

It has been a while. Our work auction that raises money for our annual holiday dinner just took place. My wife an d I included these items in the auction. I will start off with my carvings, four of them. Each of the Santas have a unique characteristic and all were fun to carve. I pushed it again this year and did not paint them until the last minute. I antiqued them and sprayed a final coat of sealer the night before the auction. I've got to learn to get this done a little earlier. I had to use a magnifying light to be able to see as well as I would like, and have decided that I'd better do them same when doing the finishing carving. I got a little sloppy on some of the fuzz.

The next pair of pictures are projects that my wife worked on for the auction. One is a tree skirt for the Christmas tree and the other is a wall hanging. Both came out fine and received good bids on them from the auction.

Enoy, and be careful of the splinters.
