Sometimes the contribution of the laser is less obvious I’m constantly delighted at how well GF fits in with traditional techniques, it’s such a great addition to the toolbox.
(Sorry, we still can’t cut metal. But you can cheat some repoussé with the GF’s help!)
Finished and waxed, final touches will be a light buffing and perhaps an oak frame.
The base is comprised of two layers of 1/8" Baltic birch ply cut in GF. Top layer is artwork, bottom layer is a solid rectangle with a misplaced score (user error) to align the top pieces. Rotary tool used to soften the forms of the animals.
^ Best way to describe what’s happening. Phenomenal work. I would have never guessed that this was done with the help of the GF. Once again I find myself being blown away by the creativity of others here.
