Howdy All!
Been away fer awhile, but have been in the shop...:shifty:
Question regarding the pictured piece of staghorn sumac...
I'd like to turn this into a lamp base, but am obviously concerned about the mild checking.:laughing:
I'm wondering if this could be saved by casting?
Or should I just accept the fact that this is a pant-load of stopper/pen blanks in log form?
I can, and probably will, fill the smaller checks with CA.
I'd like to put some color in the big gap...
Any suggestions or advice?
If this could be saved/casted, would I need a big pressure pot, or better yet, send this to one of the exemplary casters present?:yes:
Thanks everybody!
