Just a hello

[rhett]

Hello fellow wood workers. My name is Rhett. I have recently moved to Raleigh from Lexington Ky. I am hoping to make some new connections. I do lots of veneer work and am currently trying to master the art of curve form woodworking:BangHead: I also have an unreal connection to obtain wide plank figured domestic hardwood, mainly cherry and maple, more on that later. As always be good and take your time.

You did and it's stunning 8-O :eusa_clap :eusa_clap I really like the design. What are the basic dimensions?

Thanks for the kind remarks, it is definately custom. I simply cut a 2" OD hole, cut it in half making 2 semi-circles then glued a 1/8" strip of hardwood in the circle "sandwich". Sanded and used a router with a collet to cut the holes. Like everything in woodworking, gotta make a jig!
