Beautiful work, I am intrigued by the design. Looks kind of like you have been talking to Earl. Both of you are way too talented for me. Thanks for sharing.

http://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/ Steve has a ton of free patterns. He might want to you to "join" his blog to have access. That particular basket is on page three about 1/2 way down on the right - titled the Wobble bowl, and it comes in two sizes. I think that all the baskets I have done recently have been from his site.

No, Earl's work is much more intricate and detailed! Thanks for the compliment.

They look awesome. What kind of finish do you apply to them?

Thank you. I'd been using polycrylic for light wood and wipe-on poly for the rest . I prefer Danish oil, but it takes so long to have the smell disappear. Read on another forum to let the oil dry for a couple of days and then spray with poly. This apparently gives the advantage of the oil finish for the grain and seals in the smell. I haven't tried it yet.
