UBB.threads Forums Thread Like Summary - Stay at Home Projects

I was talking to Dave the other day and we were discussing how we were keeping ourselves occupied. He gave me some cherry flooring from a job his son did a few years age and I wanted to show how I used some of it. I ripped it on a table saw, ran it through a planer, and made a couple of boxes out of it. Here are two examples. I've also been doing a little work with silver, turquoise, and coral

One of my projects done in gold. The stems and leaves are 14K with green enamel, the flowers and buds are carved in turquoise and the centers set with small diamonds mounted in platinum, and the vase cut from a quartz crystal. Inspired by a book I received about Carl Faberge's work in Imperial Russia
