This is 20” diameter plague which involves scrollsawing, carving, sanding, wood burning, dabbling with paint and a coat of polythurane. This has been sitting in my unfinsihed projects for some time and finally decided to complete them, there are still five to go all Oriental themes. I had to join two pieces of pine together to get the required width. I used dowells and glue.
