This is a re-write of a last years post that I can’t seem to get to show up on recent posts, so I’m starting it again.
What kind of shop made presents does anyone have going on?
A friend asked if I would make him a small 3 dimensional wood tree from a rough sketch he made on an envelope. I googled and searched Pinterest and found nothing that vaguely resembled what he wanted. There were several utube sites that made 3 dimension reigndeer and Christmas ornaments, I figured there can’t be much difference in a reigndeer, ornament and a tree, so I started by put a narrow blade on the Band saw and started cutting wood. Much scrap later here is one that came out looking somewhat like the tree in his sketch.
Build time is 10 minutes sketching tree on the wood, 10 minutes Band saw time and 45 minutes sanding and finish. Material is 3”x3” x 12” whatever wood that is laying around. Finish is medium watco.
