    Default Back of Adirondack chair

    Here is my newest carving. Yes it is cut into 3 inch and 2 1/2 inch splices... I will place them on
    a semi-circle frame to frame out the back of an Adirondack chair like my last one (see completed and think of
    this back on it). I haven't decided whether or not I should paint it accordingly to the original family crest
    then apply a spar varnish or just varnish. I carved this in cedar to go outside and it took 3.5 hours on best with little clean up.
    Not counting the two hours and numerous changes to the board size and brain farts since I haven't used my machine in quite a while.

    No the carvings isn't crooked it my photography skills of holding the camera on an angle or maybe it's me not
    standing straight (I seem to lean more and more the older I get)


    I was able to bring out all my wood working machines out into the sunlight today and make lots of sawdust.
    It was a beautiful 79 degrees today... but just wait it will probably be cold tomorrow.
