I've probably said this before but I don't get in the shop much during the summer months. For one, it's just too darn hot. We have a fairly large yard that requires a lot of maintenance and a couple other hobbies, metal detecting and reading(napping) on the patio keep me busy. Its time to get back at it. The honey farm ordered 25ea. decorative jar lids in two different sizes and 25 dipper lids. Fortunately, I had turned them all in the spring and seal coated them. All I had to do was sand and top coat them. She also wanted an assortment of ornaments for the Christmas season. Not the best picture but you've seen them before. I did start on a project just for fun, something I've had it in my mind to do for a long time. A traditional Native American Style flute. This one is a learning project and a work in progress. If I keep this one, the rubber band will be replaced with a leather cord or something similar. For the record, I will never be mistaken for a musician. I'm also slated to do the Demo for our Oct. wood turning club meeting so I'll start prepping that in the next week or so. The president's challenge this month is to turn something multi-axis so I'm going to turn an offset pendant. It's a simple little two axis project but there are some good techniques involved and it's a great way to use up small cutoffs. It's also a good skill builder. Finally! One more picture and not even about wood turning. My best metal detecting find this summer. Unbelievably, I found it in our back yard. How it got there would be something to know for sure. The inscription is in Latin and the translation is in the print. A 1929 British penny. Hope this doesn't get me booted!!

I just printed two different sizes of this guy, a ten and a twelve inch model. Don't know when or if I ever carve this guy but I got it in my pictures for when I get around to it. I do have the wood but these pecans been working the fool out of us. He sure won't look like this though. I like my indians with skin and hair and feathers!

Here is my latest basket illusion piece. It is a 14½ inch diameter Navajo style wedding basket. The wood is maple that has been beaded and then woodburning pens were used to create the woven basket illusion. Copic ink pens were used to color the pattern which is the classic Navajo wedding basket design.
