Description

Haven't been around for a while, not particularly for lack of woodwork; I've been in and out of the shop a fair amount since October, but I haven't had my camera in a little while, so I haven't been updating. Phone pictures aren't all they're cracked up to be, so I avoid them. But hey, I want to at least keep this page from dying entirely, so here's a piece I made back in the day. It's a continuation of Live at the Green Mill with designs drawn up for a couple more pieces-one organ based, and another trumpet based. I'm telling you, these impressionist pieces are a lot of fun; I got to work in a little cello-cerebellum, and float the arms way out there, it was fun; woulda been a little better in a harder wood, but I'm strapped for cash going into grad school, so oak it is.

This piece is based on a lovely cello that I have had the privilege to see in action at close quarters a couple of times, made in the 1700's and owned at one point by Mozart's grandfather, (you can actually just see the black cello case it's in in the corner of the pictures) and sculpted to the piece 'Gabriel's Oboe'.
At some point I'll get a hold of a camera and upload some more pieces, a couple of padauk foo dogs, some tea trays, oh, and a coffee table made of old organ pipes, that one was fun.

This piece is made of oak with a pine base, and a metal support.
