Sumthin like Dave,

The Annotated "He's Gone"

Grateful Dead lyrics. . . another head making fine dust . . . although I don't think woodworking is what most deadheads would think of first when discussing dust :lol:

It is actually nicer in person, the camera washed out the color a bit and it's a smooth as a baby's butt.

I was wondering about that color, But I am no expert on wood, and havent used all that much walnut:eusa_thin

Dave,

That's ONE COOL Heart!!

I think you did a great job with it...

... but, what is it used for?
Paper wt. or just something to put on a nik-nak shelf or table and look at it?

What kind of angle grinder did you use?

Thank you.

Joe, the lady that I made it for indicated that it was to be used as a paper weight. In this era of computers and electronic documents, I didn't think folks needed paper weights anymore, so maybe it's more like a desk decoration...or dust collector :lol:
I used a cheapo HF 4" angle grinder with a flap sanding disk to do most of the rough shaping. That's fun...dust flying everywhere.
Thanks for your comments. It was a fun project to make and I am happy with the results.
Dave

It looked a beautiful paper wt. to me... always on the desk to hold something down.

Those flap disks you mentioned... is that what they call them? where bought?

Thanks.
