I made this from a log I found in my pile of fire wood. Part of the log was eaten by insects, so I cut away the solid part and started to remove all the soft wood. After that’s done, I took a Dremel and polished the surface. I made a base for it and finished it with tung oil. I entered it in the first art show of the season in our area. Should hear soon if it was accepted.

seamuis,
The Dremel bit I used was a #117 high speed cutter.

Absolutely love it. There is no greater artist then mother nature and an eye to capture it.
