Not really sure why but I’m finding that moist or wet woods / blanks are just so much easier to turn then if it’s as dry as a bone. Either way with this one I’ll at least get to try out my new bowl gouge. Short hand sand paper supply is out so I’ll have to pick some up tomorrow. I tried slicing off the corners on my bandsaw on this one but the bandsaw I have is just not powerful enough for that even going slow. Either way here’s what’s been done so far.

This was a sign I made for my niece and her husband for Christmas. It ended up as one of their wedding decorations. The wood is Myrtlewood and finished with rattle can spray lacquer. I tried to keep the bark on the edges and then after the round over on the ends, I used a torch to darken them up to better match the sides with the bark. Thank you for looking.

From the album: Seem Rippers
This is the same as the other myrtle-wood ripper shown here as closed. They are held in place by spring material that is inserted into the body of the ripper. Simply pull on each end one at a time to reveal the ripper heads and turn them around and reinsert.- 2 comments
