I think this is done, there are a couple areas I may darken a little and obviously it has no finish on it just yet. Not sure if I want go glossy or semi gloss. This is the "top". The center motif is one of my favorite zentangle patterns, "phicops in a circle". Have no idea where the name comes from but that's what the original author named it. At any rate, I think it's a great pattern and have used it often. This is the underside. I may do a little more shading on the motif as the picture makes it look lighter than I'd noticed. This will be gifted and unlikely as it is I don't want to take a chance on the couple seeing it just yet so their names are blacked out.

Did a few of these a while back but it's been a while. This is soft maple, turned to about 2.5mm or 3/32" and just over 12" diameter. It will get my version of a basket weave illusion done with piercing and pyrography. This is the basic pattern, it's adapted from a Polynesian Lei, Lei weave which is normally done with water hyacinth reeds. The "X" areas will get pierced and the rest will get wood burned and shaded to produce the basket weave illusion. Have just started to layout the grid lines to draw the pattern. That's an LED lamp on the back side. Produce_0.mp4 Hoping this one turns out as it's intended tobe a gift.

Just finished the 2nd flame box elder vase, there is some pretty grain in this one too. Decided to do a zentangle on the bottom of this one. This is one of my favorite patterns, "Phicops in a cirlce" Have no idea where the name comes from.

A maple bowl in kind of a tulip shape, 12" diameter and 4" deep. I thought about "framing" the pattern with some heavy shading around the edge, decided not to and just left it plain. I turned this to be functional so it has bees wax for a finish. Steve

Just finished another decorative platter. This one is 12" diameter and 1/8" thick. It is basically the same pattern as before but drawn a little differently and it shows a spline much better. This really is the effect I've been trying to get and I'm very happy with this one. The rose was drawn in Inscape and engraved with my little laser. The shading on the rose was done by hand and I've got a lot to learn about all that. Thanks for looking!! Steve

The little maple plate, more PIP+finished pics.(LOTS of pics)
Steve Krumanaker posted a topic in Wood Turners
To be honest I'm not sure whether to call this a plate, saucer, or maybe even a dish. At any rate I'm going to start at the beginning and show the first picture again. Basically just a series of triangles from this side. There is a pattern but it's not easy to make out. Just as an aside, my wife liked it this way very much. What I didn't show you was the pattern I had drawn on the other side. This picture is after all the piecing had been done. This is the underside of the bowl. This is the inside after piercing and having some of the pattern drawn in. I didn't feel I could lay out inside and out before doing the piercing so I did the outside, pierced, then drew the pattern to match the holes. It was a LOT more difficult than I thought it would be. Visualizing the pattern was difficult even though It's my pattern and I'm very familiar with it. Also, some of my cuts weren't exactly perpendicular to the surface and that changed things enough I had to fudge here and there to make it all work out(kind of). I have to say, it's amazing to me what a difference a few simple lines can make in how something looks. In this picture the pattern is drawn and burned in. I have begun to do the grain lines and shading. I keep telling myself I need to lose weight but I don't know how I would hold things to work on them if I did When looking at some of my other pieces some have remarked that I must have a lot of patience. I have to say, it's like therapy to me. Sitting on the patio, burning for a couple hours, and having 3 or 4 glasses of wine I'm very relaxed. Much like this post, I did eventually get it done, took me the better part of three days to see if my idea would work. All in all, I'm happy with how it turned out though there are lots of little issues on the inside. It was a great learning experience and the next one will be better. Thanks for looking!! Steve

Maple bowl with basket weave pattern. Bottom has zentangle pattern "phicops" -
Did this one a few months ago. There are four zentangle patterns on this bowl, the main basket weave pattern is called "W2". I don't know why, that's just what it's called. The bowl itself is maple, turned to finish green and is about 3/8" thick. Don't know if you can tell from the pictures but it has a nice warp to it. Steve
