First jewelry attempts
« on: July 17, 2011, 11:08:27 am »
Hey!

It's raining again - and I had some more time to go to the wood shop. This time I tried a bit of jewelry, which I had on my list since quite some time.

Number 1 is cut from 1/4" walnut, 4" width and 2.5" high.

The others are 1/4" beech plywood, 2.5" x 1.75".

The hearts might need one more cutout in the right bottom ection to give the heart there more shape.

Thanks. I will try some more and need to find out about routing the frame. I have a big cabinetmaker's router with table but I'm not willing to hold this little pieces on to that. I need my fingers.

I love these pieces. You did a really greay job. There are router bits for dremel tools that can work for small pieces like this, I prefer to sand my edges to shape. I love making jewelry!
