Reply #5 - Jan 1^st, 2016 at 8:18pm Saw it posted on the Lumberjacks website a couple of days ago. He said it was made similar to a bowl from a board method. Wish he would post more info. This is something I would like to try.

Fantastic piece. Thumbs Up

Making segmented pieces with curves is difficult but not as hard as the casual observer might think. I'm sure you've all seen Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!! You need to

Once you actually do it yourself the level of perceived difficulty drops considerably.
If the artist is willing to show his/her methods that would be great.
