January 1, 20179 yr You are a real artist, DAB, good job on the recreation of the picture in wood. Looking forward to the posting of the final results. Herb
January 1, 20179 yr Author both items just from a pic. they aren't perfect, but for a first attempt, they aren't bad. not sure what to finish the little one with yet. still need to find a piece of drift wood/rustic wood for a base for the large ray. recipient said to send a bill.....i have no idea how i'd price this. i did it for fun and for the challenge it presented, as i'm between larger projects. figured if it didn't turn out, it's just scrap wood (C/D ply i had laying around) that i could burn. hint to aspiring woodworkers: learn how to work from a picture. that's the same way i built our coffee table last year. from a pic in a catalog. likewise the sofa table, from a picture i saw.
