Relief Carved

It only took me about a year to post anything, but better late than never. I definitely drool everyday at the amazing things made on here. Makes me want to quit my job and build all day.

This is a “G” that I reliefed carved into Oak that a friend asked me to do. The “G” of course if for the number one college football team in the nation. Most of it was carved using a router, and then fine tuned as much as possible by hand. It’s about 18” x 24”. I also never realized how much of a glare polyurethane makes when taking photos of it.

I do have a question. When staining the border, how do I keep it from bleeding (or is that possible)? I bet i sanded off stain from the interior for 3 days.
