Found some stuff put back it a box and could never find it till now
Smallpatch posted a topic in Wood Carving
I was working on two clocks in 2016 as about the first carving ventures in my life... These I also made the back side of some of the pieces curved to fit the curvature of where it would hug the wood better. I can't find the other box that went with this one so still looking...don't know why I quit before it was finished? Except the small pieces made me cross eyed as the day went on so that might be why I lost them on purpose. The other box has my plans but I don't I was going by a pattern just some dumb thoughts I drew up that didn't make sense to my wife at all? This next picture is the other carvings but the other box has a ruff drawing of how they went together . I can't remember. I don't remember this picture being so out of focus.
