I tried two new things this weekend. The first is my first attempt at painting after carving. I have seen lots of good examples on this forum and in this thread specifically but here is my first attempt. Well, I guess my first two attempts. First I carved the cribbage board topper using red oak. As many of you will expect there was a lot of bleeding in the paint.
So I redid the piece in maple and had a much better result.
The next thing I carved this weekend was a couple of clocks. I made another post specifically for the clocks so here is a link to that thread if you are interested in checking that out.
