This piece was first turned and then carved. I used an Arborteck, and A Foredom with grinders and sanding tubes. There was a great deal of hand sanding. The piece is 16” diam x 8” high and is sycamore.

You’ll find a lot of Arbortech fans on this website. Nice work, I can see how difficult the hand sanding would be to complete this piece. Thanks for posting your work here.

Ray – Glad to see you finally made it to Lumberjocks. You definitely need to post some of your other pieces. I especially love the “flying saucer” and know others on here would love it as well. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for the Wayne Center Art Show.
