Thought I better get on with this as im always running behind.
So do you like Apples ? I do. So the stand will be made from well seasoned Apple.
The wood in question came from a local tree and has been machined down into a paddle to be used on a Mill Wheel.
Well that was until I got my hands on it.
Draw a basic design on it as a guide.
Just hope he likes it.
Cut the basic shape snapped 2 new blades ( too much tension).
Expensive mistake and lesson learned.
I thought I’d be a smart ass and cut two useful draws into it.
Putting the draws together was fun. Bare in mind it’s all one solid block of apple so the grain must follow.
Top view. That’s as far as I got today. Still loads to do but it’s cold down my shed.
So to be continued......
