The woven look is really nice!! Those butt ends where the top carvings meet the bottom ones must have been a tedious chore for sure! Excellent
Just go for it
Very nice piece there, how did you get those "carvings" on it? Did you carve them after making the shape, or is there a certain method that you use?

I Turned from a rough form that had dried.Then used an index wheel to draw grid on area that i wanted to carve.Then once I had my pattern I carved using power and hand tools.then a LOT of sanding.
Thanks
