Wow, words escape me, very awesome.
That is beautiful! To do that on your first attempt means you must really have an amazing natural talent.
Fred,
That looks really good~! And the finish looks great. I love how well cedar sands, very very smooth surface.
So did you have any problems with it cracking?
oddly enough no cracking issues. I was expecting some but it didn't happen. I made very light cuts and stopped to look often.:gar-Bi
