Hit a couple birthdays to deal with, then other stuff.
Nephew’s birthday came in. He loves laser stuff, cats, and pandas. I’ve been making him cat-related stuff so this time is pandas.
It suffered some from sanding on the ply. But we had blank, then inlays of zebrawood, padauk, wenge, and metal.
Each disc is 5" across. To be different, I treated them with butcherblock conditioner.
He loved them.
Remember that tangled cat image? I finally decided to wreck my 12" marble tile…the good way.
Then Grandma’s birthday came.
I had seen this at a friend’s place. He’s a local who has gotten me some really great wood to use. I took inspiration.
Bonus Round:
Item 1.
One of my coworkers really belongs here!
She also has a few on the desk below and all over her travel mug.
Item 2.
For the people that really followed to the end, an new YouTube channel (but not sensation) has been born. This has actually been a couple years in the making, and I’m crazy enough to do this for all the Forgers out there.
Will it Forge?
Episode 1: I started easy, with stone tile. (Hate that I cannot customize thumbnails, yet.)
Always open to suggestions for what to try to Forge.
