Title: 7 inch Swag Bowl and an Elephant w\ Calf tray puzzle
Post by: DWSudekum on May 07, 2014, 06:28:39 am

The tray puzzle was cut from 3/4 inch oak and has a 1/4 inch backer.  It was finished with Tung Oil.

The 7 inch swag bowl was a total salvage job.  A painted board was given to me and I was told it was a pine board.  I stripped the paint and I found one of those commercial ready to paint glue up boards.  This board had some great graining so I decided to use it for a bowl.  I also had a scrap piece of spanish cedar.  This bowl is 7 in in diameter, 4 inches tall and was sealed with Tung Oil and top coated with Shellac.
