  Okay folks here we go this will be a bit different. I had already started this piece back in the spring on my old lathe. It turn out to be to big for that set up. So I got a new lathe and built a steady rest. This piece is nothing fancy now just a pine hollow 8" D x 11" Tall. My plan is to carve into the hollow and add intarsia, pyrography , texture and color. I'll save the surprise of what the content of the art will be for the next post, here's a look at my starting canvas.

Okay everyone I was able to get some carving done for the inlay Intarsia. I'm showing this now so you can see how it comes together, this is just the first piece of many that will be added. I'm not telling what the subject is at this point. this is a piece of Hackberry cut shaped and steam bent to shape then I carved the inlay.
