Description
So finally this table is completely finished and I have proper photos of it! Formerly "Spiral Table" I wasn't happy with the end result so I went back at it with the angle grinder.See the original: [link]
Feelings were pretty strong that I shouldn't change it...so I hope those people still like it!

I like a much this
work. Will you
industrialize it?
The handle gene
rated is naturally
good.
The engraved in
wood creates a new
texture.
At all, an original
piece of design,
for low numbered
production. If possible
just one, if for a good
evaluation.
Congratulations!

Thanks! I'd love to be able to make more than one. Since it's all carved by hand and eye, each one would be slightly different and unique.

I've been looking through your work since you DD, and I was happy to see you changed this. The older one I thought looked creepy, this has a more peaceful look.

I really like this version a lot better! It makes your eye concentrate more on the pure form and texture of the piece instead of it being distracted by the color. I agree with you guys^ that the glass isn't necessarily the best choice ever, but it certainly makes very cool shadows and reflections. I suppose whether or not you decide to like it depends upon whether you want that distraction from the pure form of the wood or if you want those little details on the glass too. I think it's an awesome piece either way!

Thanks!! Yeah I don't know how much the glass helps it vs. takes away from it, but it came down to a financial issue. Maybe when I get big and famous I'll have more money to blow on materials. lol j/k

It's still good, but I think I liked it better before

cool! I like tis one much more than the other; it was more patchy and now this is more congruent with...itself...if that makes any sense...

ya I know what you mean
Thank you very much

It's absolutely amazing! I like this whole lotta better than the older version.
I'm only concerned aboubt the edges of the glass... why is it so, umm, frilly? It looks a bit strange.
Anyways, you did wonderful work. Love it.

Thank you very much
The edges of the glass were a last minute descision, the place I bought the glass from just had that piece laying around and it was cheaper than having a smooth polished circle, so i figured why not. I don't know how crazy I am about it though, kinda looks like a bottle cap.

That still looks awesome! Something like this with a more black/silver elegant like swirl would be sweet also. How much do you sell this stuff for?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks!! I'd definatly like to play around with this technique and colours more. I actually did some test pieces with black and silver and they looked awsome. I haven't really sold much, this one has a $2000 price tag, a little under priced (so i've been told) but I just want to get rid of it, takes up too much space lol

I for one am very pleased with the change! I wouldn't mind seeing a light stain on the wood, but I think it looks great! Certainly much better than the spiral action.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!!! I would have liked a stain on it too but I just ran out of time. Cherry darkens a lot over time if it's left in direct sunlight....so hopefully that will help.

Between the two, I prefer this one. It looks a lot more natural.

I agree, the red made it look awkward and cartoonish. It was hard to get a sense of the twisting. Thanks!

imho - the flow is much better now. very well done!

Wow, I really like this version better- it feels more alive, in a morbid sort of way. Though it was previously mentioned, this reminds me of something out of Nightmare Before Christmas. A great piece gets better- awesome work.

Thank you very much, thats exactly what I was going for 
Glad you like it!!

I like how it looks now. I wasn't able to see the cut of the glass as well as you can here, the edges look good. Now that the redish color is out of it, it reminds me more of Oogie Boogie from NMBC. Great Job!

oh I love it so much more now, think the last one the red distracted from the detail and uniqueness
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! Ya the red took too much away from it, made it look a little too cartoony

It has more personality now and has a creepier feel that the original lacked. Good stuff

Sweet, I was asked to do a commission similar of a cross section of a life size hippo coming through the floor and just his head coming through the table top like he was breathing, but the client didn't want to pay what I was asking.

haha nice. Ya people don't realize how high the price jumps when it involves carving and sculpting
