Our demonstrator for the day Mark Sanger
The start of Mark's first project.
Textured bowl with gold leaf center
Turned to shape
Texturing with carving tool
Burning the last of the burrs from the texture
Applying colour to the surface
Until this is reached
Applying the metal leaf
Use a very fine brush to do this
And you end up with this
And on to project no2
A spalted beech lidded vase on a
3 legged stand
Finishing the outside
How far dare you go before
it flies across the workshop
The pot finished
and now the stand
Catch the piece on the tailstock
when parting off
The stand in the making
The bits
Put them all together
and there you have it
The textured lid for
the pot within a vaccuum pot
Two parts together
The three components of the final project
