Wooden art

Busy day in the woodshop. Tractor wheels take about 17 seconds to draw and two days to build.

Summer = woodwork

Ahhh! Back in dad's woodshop. I have been working on these wooden scultures on and off for some years now. Iv'e been deliberately tryin' to keep from having a deadline for them. Tryin' not to think too much about what I want to do with them when they're finished. A creative oasis. A place to go only to my please my own eyes and hands (and ears - wood even sounds nice when you touch it).

But, it's harsh times and not the time to be picky about such matters so now I'm aiming at finishing some of them. Getting them "exibitable" and hopefully even "sell-able".

Great fun still...

Side project III completed

There! Finally. The Tolex/vinyl was expensive and so was the spray-glue so I'm very happy I got it right. No excuses now. I HAVE to learn how to play it...
