Thread: Nothing special

  1. #1

    Nothing special

    Some one on this site posted a bowl, that he had filled a hole with epoxy and brass shavings, from a key machine. I used Titebond II dark, with brass key shavings, and it worked well. The bowl is an oak burl that some one dropped off here. It is 4.25 wide X 3 in. tall. Will not hold anything, is not anything special. Has a wolf inside it. WOP finish.

    Dennis, I wouldn't say "nothing special". Looks to me like that would be a great conversation piece on the coffee table in living room or den. Nice job.

    It is special, Dennis. It is special because you made it by yourself...with your own hands...and there's not another one like it in the world! Good work old boy!

    What a neat piece of wood! I don't see the wolf, but I do see a pair of eyes... Pretty cool.

    All I see is a Dali imipressionistic terrified man ~ 5:00. Oh, and a very cool chunk of wood that made it to the finish line. Good job!
