Winner! FreeStuff Drawing Wood Shells – You Must See These Pictures!
The winner is...Jerome Hanby
Please note - If you didn't win and want a copy you can get a 10% discount through this weekend by using the discount code "sawmill". The winners name for this FreeStuff Drawing will be drawn from the list of Contributors who "Opt-In" by posting in this thread. The drawing will be held on Friday December 4th, 2009. Please contact our FreeStuff Moderator Glenn Clabo if you have questions concerning this drawing. Wood Shells – A New Art Form This item is an ebook written by Steve Garrison who has developed a method for making wooden shells that resemble shells found in nature. They are made using segmented construction rather than being carved from a solid block of wood. Each segment is cut using either a scrollsaw or bandsaw, and the shell form grows from the inside out much like an actual seashell would grow. A shell can be designed to spiral out either fast or slow – or anywhere between depending on the spiral angle chosen as the model. Only basic math skills are needed despite looking complicated. Steve considers this to be a new kind of art and has sold many shells through art galleries. He continues to discover new ways to improve the technique to allow more control over the shape of a shell to get closer to an imaginary shell he has in mind. Some of his shells are shown here as examples of what this technique is capable of. All of the methods used to produce these are covered in the ebook. There is much more yet to be discovered, and this book contains years of experience. Contributors can opt in by leaving a comment below. If you would like to purchase the ebook before the date of the drawing it can be purchased for $29.99 through Steve's web site: http://www.stevengarrison.com/id19.html If you buy the ebook before the drawing and then win you will get a refund of your purchase price. There is plenty of time to make these for Christmas gifts or to give the plans to one of your friends. If you don't win and want a copy you can get a 10% discount through December 6th 2009 by using the discount code "sawmill". Last edited by Glenn Clabo; 12-04-2009 at 12:00 PM.
