#cherrywood — Public Fediverse posts

Working with cherry is so nice and smells so good¹ even if you burn it a little. The milling went well and I was really glad that even without any clamps there's no daylight between the boards and the stop-block on the mitre gauge makes it easy to get a consistent length.

Anyone got any opinions on the order and orientation of the board before the glue-up tomorrow?

¹ I have dust collection on always during all cuts and wear a respirator for rips and sanding.

Can anyone tell me anything about this doll?

I guess she is a kokeshi, but I've never seen one like her before.

I fell for her as soon as we met, and now she lives next to these Tomoko-Fuse designed origami.

She has a silver bow in her hair, tiny red nose and mouth, and strange, insectile patterns on her dress.

Currently, I don't know her name.

Because some of you liked my last posts with my work in progress (naturally I haven't finished these, but started to work on an octopus jewellery dish 🙄 because you can't have enough UFO's in your life 😅) I show you my Kirschvogel. Kirsche means Cherry in German, Vogel = Bird. I had something swallow- or sparrowlike in my mind while I worked on it, but my dear family calls it "Die Ente!" (this duck!) 🤪, because the beak looks very wide when you look from above at the thingie. But I designed it to look at it from the side. I made it for myself and it now sits on a raised place on my desktop, so that I look directly at it and can just be happy about my small bird.

I saw something like this (bigger, shinier, better) on Pinterest last year and tried to make it in a smaller scale. It's a Holder for pens - or respectively my fountain pen of choice. The pen of your choice should resemble the tail feather. As you can see, a lip stick has also a perfect place here.
As funny as this is: The cherry wood I used is selled as neatly in smooth rectangles sowed smoker wood for BBQs. Nice for litte projects and much cheaper than wood which is explicitly sold for whittling. But it's seasoned and really hard wood - which gave me some problems in the beginning - until I switched to soak it before working on it.

Here’s a slice of cherry and a slice of life. It’s a few seconds of me cutting a thin shim for one of my projects. I’m still trying to build an audience on YouTube, for my woodworking. So if you like this kind of thing, please like, comment or subscribe over there. And if I can provide insight, warning or encouragement in this space, just ask. #woodworking #bandsaw #cherrywood
