Title: My shell collection
Post by: DWSudekum on April 30, 2012, 10:59:39 am

These are the shells that I have recently made.  All of them have been finished with beeswax paste.

This one was cut from a 2x4

This one was cut from white cedar

This one was cut from a pine glueup

This is a picture of all of the shells to date.  Notice that none of them are exactly the same.  Some are going to be planters, some will be potpourri holders.

All are great but I like the one from the 2x4 best.  How many rings did you have on that one ??? 
I did a sample one and am calling it my Charlie Brown shell !!!  Keep up the great work and thanks for advise given.   Marion

Duh! for me....  I thought they were actually sea shells.  Duh!  They must have a lot of sanding n carving involved.  I'm just not into that kind of making dust.
     I sure would LOVE to watch a video of step by step how they are made.  Bet a lot of others would also.  Yes?  Danny  :+}
