July 6, 20188 yr Popular Post comment_153242 I turned a similar wedding basket illusïon a couple years ago as an auction item for my turning club. This one is somewhat smaller at only 12½ inches in diameter. This one will be in the SWAT 2-for-1 drawing next month. The wood is maple and if my memory is correct it has 58 rows of ⅛ inch beads. I used pyrography to create the illusion of a coiled basket and then used Copic ink pens to color the design. Report

July 6, 20188 yr comment_153278 I've sat here for an hour trying to describe what I am looking at...My thinker just told me, forget it. Would you happen to be that guy on the two wheeler the cops chase from Fort Worth to Dallas every day on I-30. If so you got two very good talents!! Report
