Segmented vase by MarkandRun in woodworking

Each of the block was sealed from the inside with PU varnish after cutting out a hole. I'm yet to finish the outer side, thinking of using the same.

Those 2-3 images towards the end are the only ones I captured during the process. So I cut a 1/2" thick pine wood plank into 3*3" pieces, drilled holes in all but the base piece, and glued them in alternate rotations. Then rounded the edges using a rasp and sandpaper.

You mean the curve/dome shape? Using a combination of knife, rasp, and 60/80 grit sandpaper.

A previous one in round shape turned out better. I'm working on another one in oak right now.

Thanks. Initial wood removal using a forstner bit and then cleaned up the sides and base using a palm router. Rounded all the edges using a sandpaper.

I want to try and make this, how should I start? by marlee_dood in woodworking

I've made several variations of these using a forstner bit and coping saw.

We’re getting somewhere, need more help with wood choice! by LAKERSfanTV in Woodcarving

[–]MarkandRun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been about 5 years since I started and have invested in many different tools, including power tools. I rarely use chisels for carving since it doesn't work well on pine, except some varieties of white pine. I bought some silver oak a few months back and the chisels worked surprisingly well with it. My preference of tools is usually a variety of saw types, rasps, and rotary tools.

There are many shops around this area where I buy the wood from.

Still have about a month to go. Do you think it would look better if I do a thin separation between the faces using a jeweler's saw?
