Been lurking awhile, joined yesterday. Trying this message largely as a test to see how messaging on the forum works.
I've made three shawl pins for my daughter's birthday tomorrow. Never tried to work wood to produce such small artifacts. An example is attached: cocobolo, about two inches across the buckle. This wood his been around my shop for 35 years waiting for a project. Two other designs are in walnut and cocobolo; all were somewhat challenging because they are so small.
Tools: Bandsaw, Drill Press, Jig Saw, Dremel Sanding Drum, Files, Sandpaper.
Finish: Watco Penetrating Oil.
