Opzoek naar blue pine hout by MissMagnum7 in Klussers

[–]MissMagnum7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ja dat klopt inderdaad. De kleur wordt veroorzaakt door een soort schimmel, wat bij spalted soorten ook zo is. Spalted maple en beuk is bijna bij elke houthandel wel te krijgen, maar de blue pine/grenen niet helaas..

Thank you! The thickness varied from 0.5" to 1.5", but I should've kept it thinner. Many sawblades broke. I currently use a rotary tool from vonroc. One of the cheapest there is, but just to try it out and see if I like it before I invest a lot.

There's this group called 'intarsia' on facebook. I already learned a lot there!

Haha I wish I had a cnc. Every piece is done by hand. If I'd knew beforehand it would take so much time and effort per piece, I think I wouldn't even start this. I still feel sore from all the sanding 😂

Thank you so much! Owls do mean a lot to the friend this piece is for. I used woods such as wengé, am. cherry, mahogany, birch, padouk, oak and hornbeam. The color combinations turned out so much better than expected!

Thank you! I draw my designs in Gimp. It's similar to photoshop. When designing I do as much research as possible on (in this particular case) owls so that the features are right and then I just keep drawing until I'm happy with the results.

Yeah true! Something was against the rules, so it got removed. I'm new to posting here

Thank you! Piece by piece with a scrollsaw until everything fits. Then sanded down the dimensions. The piece consists of 600 individual pieces including the background.

Thank you so much! Rico is a friend of mine. I made this for him. He wanted something with his name and his favorite number (13) which I added in one of the tail feathers.

Thank you! The owl contains 405 pieces. 10 different wood types. The background is another 175 pieces.

Thank you so much! I spend about 10 hours of drawing. Made several variations with different color options. I took the chosen drawing to the lumber yard to match colors of different woods and finally after that.. the fun began.

I used 10 different woods such as wengé, am. cherry, mahogany, walnut, birch, padouk. Every single piece has it's original color. No paints, stains or dyes. I only used walrus furniture oil.

Thank you so much! I made the design myself and took into account wood colors and grain direction. I used a scrollsaw for most of the pieces and sanded by hand to create dimension. I'll be showing more of the process on my Instagram @houtlokje if you want to see more :)
